The black shadow's voice was raspy, but it was imbued with a sense of superiority and disdain.
He pointed a finger at the Demonic Blood Beasts formed from blood that were charging toward him.
"God's blessing, all demons in this world belong to me!"
As his voice trailed off, a red ripple proliferated from his fingertip throughout heaven and earth.
All of the Demonic Blood Beasts materialized by An Lin faltered, as if they had been frozen in mid-air.
In that instant, An Lin felt as if his power had been restricted, and he had completely lost control over the Demonic Blood Beasts.
The power of the several dozen Demonic Blood Beasts climbed once again, and they all turned to look at An Lin with sinister smiles on their faces.
"Do you see that? Grant them power, intelligence, and thought processes. This is the true power of life. How about it?" The black shadow's eyes were crimson as he stared at An Lin.
An Lin's lips twitched slightly. What was that mysterious being trying to say? Was he implying that he should come and praise him?
Heh … Asking An Lin to praise his enemy? What a joke!
He was the invincible Sword Immortal An Lin, the Tamer of Divine Lightning who didn't even fear divine lightning. How could he praise an enemy?!
"As expected of a mighty figure that understands life. Your power is amazing!" An Lin joined his hands in a salute.
The black shadow's expression faltered slightly.
"Senior, I was trying to avoid the Inversion Phenomenon and accidentally barged into this place, so I'm really sorry. If there's nothing else, I'll be taking my leave, "An Lin continued.
The black shadow: "…"
Xu Xiaolan: "…"
Gluttony, who had just fled to the black shadow's side, was also a little dumbstruck.
His display of weakness had come too quickly, like a tornado.
The black shadow was still waiting for An Lin to say some defiant words. Then, he would personally beat these people into submission before capturing them back to the sect. However, An Lin didn't play by the rules. He immediately praised him for being bad * ss and said that he was the best before taking his leave …
Xu Xiaolan quickly understood An Lin's intentions, and she began to retreat in a stealthy manner.
An Lin actually didn't want to be such a coward. However, he had just silently compared their strengths, and he wasn't confident that he could defeat just the several dozen Demonic Blood Beasts that had been strengthened by the black shadow.
Then, how was he supposed to fight these Demonic Blood Beasts who could control those Demonic Blood Beasts with ease?
He had just used his divine sense to sense the aura of a wave of black shadows, but he discovered that with his divine sense, he was actually unable to perceive the power of the black shadows, which was very frightening.
An enemy whose exact strength was unknown, but who was very powerful, was always a cause for fear.
The enemy forces consisted of a terrifyingly powerful enemy with an unknown cultivation base and a Gluttony at the pinnacle of the Return to Void Initial Stage. On their side, there were two Soul Formation Stage cultivators, one Gundam Three, and two beasts who only knew how to yell 666. The third party was a half-cooked groundhog. How were they supposed to fight this battle?
It was obvious that An Lin and his team had no chance of winning!
Taking such a risk for a Qilin Blood Jade was simply not worth it!
An Lin and Xu Xiaolan slowly retreated, keeping a wary eye on the black shadow's movements.
The black shadow came to its senses and suddenly asked, "Are you trying to run away?"
An Lin shook his head. "This is a cultivator's business, so how can you say I'm running away? We don't have any vendetta against each other. I'm just here to take a look around before leaving. "
"Not only did you kill my Demonic Blood Beasts, but you also killed my pet, Lust. You call that no vendetta?" the black shadow spoke in an indifferent voice.
An Lin: "…"
An Lin was rendered speechless, but he continued to retreat.
As for Ao Niu, the frog, and the groundhog, they naturally ran even faster.
Even An Lin and Xu Xiaolan had run away, so what were they supposed to do? Were they supposed to wait to be turned into high-level food ingredients?
Xu Xiaolan immediately offered an explanation upon seeing that the black shadow seemed to be preparing to attack. "We were just defending ourselves. The beast tribe guards and Lust wanted to kill us, so we could only retaliate. We couldn't just stand there and let ourselves be beaten, right? Then, we accidentally killed them! "
"Defending ourselves?" The black shadow blinked. "Hmm … That makes sense …"
"Baa! Blood Lord, why are you wasting your breath on them? Hurry up and eat them! "Gluttony immediately tried to dissuade An Lin and Xu Xiaolan from running away, but the black shadow remained unmoved.
"What's the rush? This is my home. Without my orders, they won't be able to escape."
"I'm a reasonable person. Hurry up and tell me, how can I refute them?"
The black shadow's voice became less weary as it spoke with a vexed expression.
Gluttony was a little dumbstruck by this question.
Normally, it would just eat anything it didn't like. It didn't need to reason with others. Why would it need teeth if it was reasonable for everything?
If it couldn't win a verbal argument, it could just open its mouth and eat!
"Actually, we don't need to be reasonable." Gluttony thought for a moment before voicing its thoughts. "Only the weak are reasonable. They can only use reason as a weapon. The strong can do whatever they want. No one can stop them anyway, so they can do whatever they want! "
The black shadow paused momentarily. "But we can't be so righteous if we do that."
Gluttony harrumphed disapprovingly. "The bigger the fist, the harder the reason!"
The black shadow thought for a moment before replying, "The bigger the fist, the harder the reason? That sounds a little barbaric. I want to be a cultured person … "
"Blood Lord, you're not a person!" Gluttony corrected.
"Sigh …" The black shadow heaved a forlorn sigh.
Its voice was clearly very weak, but it was like the lamenting of the heavens.
An Lin and Xu Xiaolan, as well as all the beasts, also heard that lamenting sigh. Before they had a chance to react, the blood on the Vast Land of Blood began to radiate with dazzling light.
"The blood is boiling," the black shadow said in a slow voice.
Boom! It was as if the power of an entire continent crashed down upon them at the same time, and the power of the blood in the entire continent became restless as if it were sucking at their bodies like a demon.
"Moo! My body! Moo! "Ao Niu roared with shock and horror.
"Ribbit! I want to go home! Let me go home! Ribbit! "The Divine Poison Frog's feet were bound by the blood on the ground, and it struggled with all its might, but it was unable to break free.
An Lin and Xu Xiaolan were also unable to escape. The power of the Vast Land of Blood had already fused into one, and the binding power unleashed by it was indescribably terrifying.
The black shadow stepped forward and appeared before An Lin and Xu Xiaolan.
The darkness enshrouding its body slowly dissipated, revealing the true appearance of the black shadow.
It wore a set of plain white robes, and its skin was as fair as snow. There was a warm smile on its face, and it joined its hands in a polite salute. "My apologies, please allow me to be unreasonable just this once. There's something I need you to do, and I can't wait any longer. "
He looked quite handsome and likable, but the prerequisite was to ignore the Qilin horns on his head and his crimson eyes.
"Kirin horn? Could it be that you're … "An Lin's eyes widened.
"That's right, I am the Demonic Blood Kirin," the middle-aged man replied with a smile.
