"Who's there?" The banquet hall was brightly lit. Men and women dressed in noble attire were drinking and chatting happily. The violent explosion outside the door caused them to put down their wine glasses, somewhat confused.
Dong Ling Xuan originally thought that the Blood Ancestor and the others would be having fun on one of the floors. After all, this was the main building of the Dong Ling Clan. Being so brazen as to do so would be completely disrespectful to the Dong Ling Clan.
However, the reality was that the Blood Ancestor and his subordinates were having fun in the banquet hall, holding a grand birthday banquet.
They were completely treating this place as their own palace.
Dong Ling Xuan's body trembled slightly. When her gaze fell on the tall, black-haired old man in the center, she subconsciously wanted to lower her head, but as soon as she moved, the young man beside her stopped her.
"Don't be afraid of him. Raise your head and stick out your chest. These people are your clan's mortal enemies, the ones who killed your entire family. Don't you want to take a closer look at their faces?" Li Xiang took a step forward. There was a cracking sound as the ground actually began to crack.
The black stone floor, which was as solid as a boulder, actually cracked open just like that. Rubble flew everywhere, shocking everyone.
The Dong Ling Clan's main building was a super structure that had been built over many generations. This black stone was as hard as iron and was an important material for many Origin Weapons. It was impossible for ordinary players to crush it with their physical strength.
The people who had shouted to stop them were a group of fully-equipped warriors. They were responsible for guarding the banquet. Every one of them wore a uniform similar to Scarlet Blood's, with the Blood Ancestor's insignia printed on it.
The Dong Ling Clan's fall was even more thorough than Li Xiang had expected.
There were almost no silver-haired people in the banquet hall, which meant that there were no pure-blooded descendants of the Dong Ling Clan present. There were both young and old, and they were all dressed up. It seemed that they were all here to celebrate the birthday.
"How interesting. Dong Ling Clan's main building actually doesn't have a single member of the Dong Ling Clan." Li Xiang's voice wasn't loud, but it easily spread throughout the banquet hall.
"What qualifications do Dong Ling's family have to attend Teacher's birthday banquet?" A tall middle-aged man walked out of the guards, looking aggressive. His gaze went past Li Xiang and locked onto Dong Ling and Xuan behind him. "You brought them in?"
"I …" Dong Ling Xuan knew that she could not show any signs of fear at this moment. She took a step forward, intending to face the middle-aged man directly. However, the other party's aura was as shocking as a mountain, pressing down on her until she could not breathe. Moreover, the tall black-haired old man behind him also turned his head, his gaze drawn to them.
With just a glance, Dong Ling felt as if his entire body had sunk into a realm of ice. His body actually emitted traces of visible white cold air!
Many runes appeared on the ground like flowing blood, blazing and flourishing. They were magic arrays that had just been formed, and they were filled with terrifying killing intent.
The surrounding magic particles moved quickly and were mobilized, circling around the black-haired old man.
The Blood Ancestor was a Level-9 Magician who specialized in magic arrays. Once he opened up his territory and set up his own magic array, he could easily fight against an average Level-9 Magician. His name came from the fact that he had half of his inhuman bloodline.
It was said that the Blood Ancestor had once devoured a long-lived species from the world of werewolves and vampires. The other party was one of the top vampires in that world. After that, the blood of the vampires flowed in his body, and he had terrifying self-healing abilities. His physical strength was not inferior to players who focused on physical strength.
The rich Blood Qi evoked some old memories in Li Xiang's heart. He looked forward, his gaze drifting.
When he was still a magic user, he had used the incomplete ability of the Mechanical Heart to absorb Blood Qi and life force to provide energy for himself. After that, he had also subdued the current queen of the vampires. After signing a contract, he actually had a part of the bloodline of the vampires in his body. However, compared to his original aura and the bloodline that came from the darkest origin, the bloodline of the vampires was too weak and could be ignored.
The middle-aged man saw that Li Xiang was suddenly stunned and thought that he had been subdued by the Blood Ancestor's aura. He sneered, ready to see how he would die.
Dong Ling Xuan was almost driven crazy by the pressure. The black and white lolis standing at the side were still fine, but they were also panting. It was difficult for them to resist the Blood Ancestor's aura.
This was a Level-9. Any one of them was a genius of an era. They had countless opportunities and were destined to be the leaders of the human world.
However, all of this was meaningless in Li Xiang's eyes.
The Blood Ancestor narrowed his eyes. There were many burning gazes around him. Today was his birthday party. If someone messed up his birthday party, how could he show his face?
A young man with a little girl from the Dong Ling Family and two even younger kids dared to cause trouble at his birthday party. This made him wonder if he had been hiding behind the scenes for too long and the people of the Seven Continents had forgotten that he was a Level-9.
"Young man, if you just want to stand up for the girl from the Dong Ling Family, I advise you to leave now. Didn't your family tell you that the real ruler of the Continent is me? " The Blood Ancestor walked over step by step. More and more magic arrays appeared on the ground, but he was not in a hurry to make a move. "Since you can come here, it means that the power behind you is not weak. Today is my birthday. For the sake of your family, I will let you go. Take them and leave. I can also let the girl from the Dong Ling Family go."
"Teacher, the girls from the Dong Ling Family are very talented. Isn't it a pity to let them go like this?" A slender man standing behind the Blood Ancestor said darkly. His eyes never left Dong Ling Xuan's body. He did not hide his greed and lust. He clearly remembered that he had cleaned up the girls from the Dong Ling Family. Why did he leave such a beautiful girl behind?
The surrounding guards slowly gathered around, but they were only magic users. Only the personal disciples of the Blood Ancestor were players.
There were many people from other forces present. They had come to celebrate the birthday, and most of them had interests related to the Blood Ancestor. It seemed that they all wanted a piece of the big cake that was the Dong Ling Family. Even if they could not get the things from the Dong Ling Family, the other properties, even the airspace rights, could make them a lot of profit.
In this era, resources were everything.
Li Xiang touched his nose. He was wondering why no one recognized him. He glanced at the wine glass and saw his current appearance in the reflection of the wine.
No wonder.
Ever since he had leveled up, his body, including his appearance, had been changing subtly. If he looked back at the college entrance exam, he would have been a skinny monkey. He was completely different now.
He had been changing constantly. It was difficult for anyone who was not familiar with him to recognize him at a glance.
That Scarlet Blood could recognize him so quickly. He probably paid attention to his information.
Feeling that these people were looking at him as if he were a lamb to be slaughtered, Li Xiang felt that it was a little strange and interesting.
Dong Ling Xuan could not hold on any longer. Li Xiang had deliberately let her endure this to see the limits of her talent.
It was already very impressive that she could withstand the aura of a Level-9 player to this point.
Back in the Polar night training camp, he could not even withstand the gaze of the chief instructor. He did not dare to look directly at him. Dong Ling Xuan, on the other hand, could withstand the Blood Ancestor's aura for so long with her ordinary body.
This was the talent of the Five Sovereigns. It was indeed terrifying.
He had encountered many opponents along the way. Those with good backgrounds and pure bloodlines often caused him a lot of trouble. At the player level, he did not dare to underestimate them.
"You are very good. Leave it to me now. When everything here is over, I will personally guide you in your cultivation." Li Xiang nodded with satisfaction. He tapped Dong Ling Xuan's forehead with his finger. In an instant, she underwent a huge change in front of everyone's eyes.
Her silver hair fluttered in the wind, and her forehead was sparkling white, suffused with a bit of luster. Her beautiful eyes were slightly closed, and the nervousness and palpitations from before had completely disappeared. Traces of demonic patterns slowly appeared on her beautiful cheeks. They were dark gold in color, and seemed to be filled with demonic runes.
What was this?
This was definitely not a tattoo. It contained an aura that would make even him tremble in fear. At the same time, it was strange and intertwined with a holy aura. If he had to say, this aura contained some of the answers he had been dreaming of!
The Blood Ancestor's eyes widened. He had been longing to break through to the peak of Level-9 for a long time. After secretly cultivating to the peak of Level-9, he felt that he was not far away from the Five Sovereigns.
He knew that the Five Sovereigns were not far away from the peak of Level-9. That feeling was very clear. Only those above Level-9 were vague and distant. After coming into contact with the Evil Lord a few times, he could vaguely feel the strength and limits of that power.
But now, the strange mark that this young man had imprinted on the girl's face contained an aura above Level-9!
Dong Lingxuan felt as if her body was soaking in a hot spring. It was warm and comfortable. On her swan-like snow-white neck, there were also traces of dark golden patterns that flowed and spread downwards.
This aura helped her resist all of the Blood Ancestor's oppressive aura.
The Blood Ancestor was even more curious. He kept staring at Li Xiang, and his expression changed. Finally, he was horrified.
Young, with an aura above Level-9, coming to stand up for the Dong Ling Family …
With all these factors combined, the identity of this young man was obvious. Why did he provoke this big devil?
The Blood Ancestor hurriedly retreated, as if he wanted to compress himself into time.
He was very strong. He was Level-9, but the other party was even more terrifying. He had killed almost ten Level-9 people alone. He was a verified new Level-9 above!
He was also the first person above Level-9 who had fought with them. He had used his strength to prove the gap between Level-9 and Level-9!
"What, isn't it a bit too late to leave now?"
With a boom, the building shook. A terrifying wave passed through, as if a huge monster was awakening and awakening.
The people around did not react. Their levels were too low, and they could not feel the change in the environment immediately.
Li Xiang used his supreme power to lock time and space, sealing the Void Tunnel.
The Blood Ancestor's hair stood on end, and layers of goosebumps appeared on his scalp. He forced himself to throw out a punch, bringing with it a gloomy smell of blood. The fist shadows intertwined, and he did not even care about the banquet hall. He planned to directly blow up the place and forcefully open up a path of escape.
Li Xiang did not care about the people around him. They were squeezed by the Blood Ancestor's fist shadows. Their faces were filled with horror, but they could not do anything. They could only watch as they turned into clouds of blood mist like the people around them and exploded.
"Magic array, open!" The Blood Ancestor knew that he had to go all out. He frantically activated the bloodline power and various magic particles in his body, using all his trump cards to delay Li Xiang. At the same time, he activated his mythical creature form.
It was a tall, zombie-like monster with black hair all over its body. It stood proudly in the building, and its limbs had sharp long nails.
Those magic arrays were as bright as fireworks, but unfortunately, they all turned into nothingness under Li Xiang's feet. His domain ability evolved again, similar to his clone Ming Xu's invulnerability. Magic arrays of this level withered instantly.
They could not affect him in the slightest.
Dong Ling and Xuan were completely stunned. Under Li Xiang's intentional protection, the three of them were not affected by the battlefield. They could even watch the battle from a close distance.
The people in the banquet hall had already turned into ashes in an instant.
Whether it was the middle-aged man or the gloomy man who had been looking at her with a dazed expression, they all disappeared in an instant.
Such a powerful person was willing to personally guide her in her cultivation?
She was still a little dazed, but under Li Xiang's reminder, she calmed herself down and continued to watch the battle.
This would be of great benefit to her future. A Level-9 battle was not something she could watch just because she wanted to.
The Blood Ancestor was flustered and exasperated. After transforming, he still could not break Li Xiang's Seal of Extinction. This meant that the other party's domain power was far superior to his. If it were not for his powerful self-healing ability, he would have died in the first clash.
The gap between them was a little too big.
"You're weaker than I expected. Compared to the Bloodthirsty Frenzy Demon, you're still a little weaker." Li Xiang sneered. He thought that the Blood Ancestor could hold on a little longer, but he was disappointed.
The Blood Ancestor was angry and amused at the same time. Who was the Bloodthirsty Frenzy Demon? He was the strongest at the peak of Level-9. It was said that he had reached the level of the Five Kings. Naturally, he was different from them. He was ranked at the top of Level-9, but he was not considered the strongest.
What was even more frightening was that Li Xiang had already killed the Bloodthirsty Frenzy Demon, and it was not a one-on-one battle.
The huge zombie body moved around in the building, unable to leave the range of his imprisonment. Its aura was slowly weakening. The Blood Ancestor's defeat was inevitable.
Li Xiang was not in a hurry to kill him. Instead, he fought with him repeatedly, allowing Dong Ling and Xuan to see all kinds of moves and countermeasures. He was using him as a target for teaching his disciple.
Bang!
The Blood Ancestor roared as if he could not bear the humiliation, but he was mercilessly suppressed by Li Xiang.
"Did you think that this day would come when you asked your disciple to be a space pirate and rob battleships?" Li Xiang grinned and suddenly said, "You have to pay for what you did."
This was his favorite line in his previous life. It described the true meaning of the martial arts world. It was also a portrayal of his life in his previous life. Those who helped the evildoer would definitely die.
They thought that no one would punish them at Level-9 and that they would be at the peak. They could freely enjoy the pleasure of plundering. Unfortunately, this was not the case.
Li Xiang's eyes turned cold as he took out the Infernal Paradise. At that moment, the Blood Ancestor felt a fatal danger.
He wanted to say something, but his mind was filled with the sentence, "You have to pay for what you did." He was stunned.
A gunshot.
