Hundred Chi Gate, at the foot of the training peak!
"Zhao Xinyu, I haven't gone to find trouble with you yet. I didn't expect you to deliver yourself to me!" Looking at Zhao Xinyu who was standing in front of Zhao Zhong, the corners of Yu Haoran's mouth curled up slightly as he threatened.
"Is that so?"
Zhao Xinyu was not afraid of Yu Haoran's threat. He only sneered disdainfully.
Then, he turned to Zhao Zhong and asked.
"Brother Zhong, if I have a way to prevent Yu Haoran from using the secret transformation technique, do you have the confidence to capture him?"
"Xinyu, are you looking down on your Brother Zhong by saying that?"
Without the secret transformation technique, Yu Haoran's cultivation was at most at the peak of the ninth grade Martial Warrior realm.
In Zhao Zhong's eyes, an opponent with such strength was like an ant. If he wanted to step on, pinch, stomp, slap, die, or live, it was all up to him.
Therefore, in the face of Zhao Xinyu's questioning, he was very dissatisfied.
"Brother Zhong, it's not that I'm looking down on you, but the magic tool that restricts Yu Haoran's secret transformation technique can only be used once."
"If you have a hundred percent confidence in capturing him, then I'm willing to give up this precious magic tool and lend you a hand."
"If you don't have a hundred percent confidence, then we'll admit defeat today and let Yu Haoran take away Gong Sun Yiming and his sister. In the future, we'll find a suitable opportunity." In the face of Zhao Zhong's dissatisfaction, Zhao Xinyu hurriedly explained and asked in a cautious tone.
However, if one looked closely at Zhao Xinyu's eyes, they would see a trace of coldness flashing through his eyes from time to time.
"Zhao Xinyu, I, Zhao Zhong, swear by the laws of heaven!"
"If you, Zhao Xinyu, can restrict Yu Haoran from using the secret transformation technique, then I, Zhao Zhong, can capture Yu Haoran alive. Otherwise, my blood will splatter on the spot and my soul will scatter!"
In the face of Zhao Xinyu's distrust, Zhao Zhong was completely enraged. He raised his left hand and swore by the laws of heaven, the highest form of oath in the Tianxuan Continent.
"Brother Zhong, I just want to confirm if the plan is feasible. Why do you have to swear such a serious oath?" Reaching out to press down Zhao Zhong's raised left hand, Zhao Xinyu pretended to be very angry as he complained.
However, his heart at this moment, he was overjoyed!
Although he and Zhao Zhong were both direct descendants of the Zhao Clan, and Zhao Zhong's special relationship with the Ancient Town Sect's Sect Master would not threaten his chances of ascending to the top in the future, in Zhao Xinyu's heart, eliminating Yu Haoran was the most important thing in his life at this moment.
As long as he could eliminate Yu Haoran, not to mention sacrificing a single Zhao Zhong, even if he had to sacrifice the entire Zhao Clan, he, Zhao Xinyu, would not even frown.
"Xinyu, now that I have finished swearing, I wonder when you will use the artifact that restricts Yu Haoran's transformation?" Ignoring Zhao Xinyu's complaints, Zhao Zhong asked coldly.
Although Zhao Zhong couldn't completely guess Zhao Xinyu's thoughts, he could also feel that the repeated questioning just now was a more subtle way of goading him.
Even though he clearly knew that it was a provocation, Zhao Zhong still dared to swear on the Heavenly Way's rules that he absolutely could not violate. This was because he had absolute confidence in his own strength.
Furthermore, he also wanted to use today's magnificent feat of capturing Yu Haoran to expand his influence in the Sect. In the future, he would have the ability and opportunity to compete for the position of the Hundred Chi Gate's Sect Master, which was even stronger, more powerful, and more influential.
"Big Brother Zhong, once I have made the appropriate arrangements, I will immediately use that artifact!" Zhao Xinyu said as he patted Zhao Zhong's shoulder.
Then, he turned around and looked at Yu Haoran as he nodded to the 20 or so Martial Master experts that he had brought with him.
Yu Haoran did not stop this. He only calmly looked at Zhao Xinyu to see what he wanted to do.
"Yu Haoran, I will give you two choices now!" Zhao Xinyu said proudly after the 20 or so Martial Master experts that he had brought with him blocked all the exits.
"Speak!" Yu Haoran said with a relaxed expression, as if he was watching a show.
"The first choice is to obediently kneel in front of me and kowtow to me three times. If you do, I will consider sparing your life."
After giving the first choice, Zhao Xinyu stared closely at Yu Haoran. He wanted to know how Yu Haoran would react after hearing his choice.
Unfortunately, Yu Haoran's expression did not change in the slightest, let alone become angry. This made Zhao Xinyu very disappointed.
Then, he said the second choice with some annoyance.
"The second choice is for Big Brother Zhong to personally take action. I'm afraid that the process and outcome will not be very comfortable!"
"Are you done talking?" After Zhao Xinyu gave the second choice, Yu Haoran waited for a little more than 10 seconds. When he realized that Zhao Xinyu had no intention of continuing, he deliberately reminded him.
"Yu Haoran, give me your choice!" Yu Haoran's calm expression made Zhao Xinyu very unhappy. He immediately took out a red ball from his sleeve and asked coldly.
"Zhao Xinyu, why don't I give you two choices right now?"
Glancing at the red ball that Zhao Xinyu had just taken out, a trace of familiarity welled up in his heart. He seemed to have seen this red ball somewhere in his previous life.
However, he couldn't recall it in a short period of time. He could only stall for time while carefully recalling it.
"Yu Haoran, it seems like you have made your choice!"
Seeing Yu Haoran staring at the red ball in his hand, Zhao Xinyu knew that he was already suspicious.
In order to prevent Yu Haoran from using the secret transformation technique in advance and affecting his meticulous plan, Zhao Xinyu decided to directly use the red ball that could restrict the secret transformation technique.
Zhao Xinyu cut his finger and forced out a few drops of blood onto the red ball. Then, the red ball in his hand directly flew into the air.
When the few drops of blood completely merged with the red ball, the red ball self-exploded. Countless red powder finally formed a red halo with a diameter of 100 meters and enveloped everyone present.
"Gold Devouring Beetles!"
"Gold Devouring Beetles!"
After the red halo formed by the self-explosion of the red ball enveloped everyone, Yu Haoran and Thaling, who was in his sea of consciousness, cried out involuntarily at the same time.
"How is this possible? How can Zhao Xinyu have the Gold Devouring Beetles, a spiritual insect that has been lost for hundreds of thousands of years?" After scanning the red halo formed by the red ball with his divine sense, Thaling finally determined that his judgment was correct. He was even more shocked and involuntarily muttered to himself.
"Lost for hundreds of thousands of years!"
Originally, he was still shocked that Zhao Xinyu actually had the Gold Devouring Beetles. However, after hearing Thaling's involuntary muttering, Yu Haoran immediately asked in confusion.
Nodding his head, Thaling replied, "That's right!"
"The Gold Devouring Beetles are between exotic beasts and spiritual beasts. They are a special kind of lifeform that lives by devouring the blood of living creatures."
"The Gold Devouring Beetles can ignore any defenses of living creatures. Even the defenses formed by the power of laws cannot stop them from directly entering a living creature's body and instantly devouring all the blood in the living creature's body."
"Because the blood of living creatures contains one-third of their cultivation, the Gold Devouring Beetles that devour all the blood can possess one-third of their target's cultivation for a short period of time."
At this point, Thaling revealed a trace of lingering fear as he spoke.
"Hundreds of thousands of years ago, a large number of Gold Devouring Beetles suddenly appeared out of nowhere."
"Because the Gold Devouring Beetles live on fresh blood, they will automatically die if they don't consume fresh blood. This caused them to crazily pursue the blood of living creatures."
