Hearing Hei Chen’s words, Lin Xuan immediately thought of Xu Qianlong. The Demon Technique Xu Qianlong cultivated must have come from the Black Dragon Race. ’No, it’s probably a more complete, more advanced Cultivation Technique,’ he mused. He wasn’t sure of the specifics, but it had to be of a similar level.
As soon as the words were spoken, they set off an uproar among the assembled Demon Race. One after another, they turned to stare at Lin Xuan, their eyes filled with greed!
Lin Xuan possessed the Heart of the Fire Phoenix, meaning he had a King Grade Phoenix Bloodline. If they could absorb his Phoenix Essence Blood, they might just be able to break through to the next level.
Now, the members of the Phoenix Race finally understood. The Golden Dragon Race understood as well. No wonder the Black Dragon Race so frantically craved Bloodline Power, scouring the entire Demon Race in a mad search for it. After the Golden Dragon Race was attacked, many of their members were captured. The same had happened to the Demon Fox Race.
You could say they launched large-scale attacks on the major Demon Race clans to find those with the strongest bloodlines. Under normal circumstances, members of the Demon Race cannot absorb the Essence Blood of other clans; doing so would easily lead to problems.
But Hei Chen’s faction had obviously solved this problem. One look at the experts behind him was enough to see that. They were all living examples, which made for a very convincing argument.
Of course, it didn’t have to be a King Grade Bloodline; they would also take Spirit Grade bloodlines. After all, a Spirit Grade bloodline could be continuously strengthened. It might not reach the level of a King Grade Bloodline, but it could at least provide a significant boost and produce astonishing results.
"Now you all know what to do. Just capture this human for me, and the King Grade Bloodline will be yours... Then, using the Cultivation Technique I give you, you’ll be able to dramatically increase your own Bloodline Power!" Hei Chen dropped a bombshell, pointing a finger at Lin Xuan and locking every gaze onto him.
In truth, there were a few things he left unsaid. Lin Xuan’s Bloodline Power was indeed King Grade, but his Essence Blood was still limited. Even if he were captured, Hei Chen and his inner circle would be the first to enjoy the benefits, not these lackeys.
However, if they captured others with Spirit Grade bloodlines, they would still have a chance to absorb them. But they could forget about the King Grade one.
"Get him! Whoever catches him first will be the first to enjoy this King Grade Bloodline!" Hei Chen finally gave the order, pointing at Lin Xuan.
"Run!"
Without a second thought, Bingxin grabbed Lin Xuan and shot outwards, heedless of anything else. Her Void Spirit Stage Cultivation erupted, and she transformed into a streak of light piercing into the distance. But how could the Black Dragon Race Elders, who had long been prepared, not have noticed?
One immediately flew up from the side, blocking their path and sneering, "Still think you can escape? We’ve already laid an inescapable net here. There’s no getting away for you."
They had prepared for everything, planning to capture Bingxin and her group in one fell swoop. The Essence Blood of a Mutated Phoenix was also quite valuable. Moreover, they wanted to see if the Phoenix Race was willing to surrender. If not, they would take it by force.
Who would have known that Lin Xuan would obtain the Heart of the Fire Phoenix, throwing all their plans into disarray? But thankfully, the inescapable net had long been laid, so it wouldn’t be a problem!
Sure enough, members of the Black Dragon Race and their vassals rose up all around. They had laid a dragnet, surrounding the area in layer after layer until it was completely airtight.
Although most of them had low Cultivation, there were still some with considerable strength. It would be difficult for Bingxin to break through on her own.
BOOM!
Suddenly, a terrifying ray of golden light shot up and slammed into the Black Dragon Race Elder in front of them, sending him flying.
"Help them escape!"
Jin Wei snorted coldly and led the charge. The Fox King followed close behind. They quickly gathered together and joined forces, unleashing a terrifying, unified attack.
They all mobilized the Bloodline Power within their bodies. Golden Scales emerged on their skin as they erupted with power in a single breath, revealing their complete Golden Dragon Race forms!
They knew that if they didn’t go all out, it would be nearly impossible to escape.
In an instant, all the Void Spirit Stage experts gathered together, forming a sharp sword that thrust ferociously outwards, piercing through all obstacles!
"Strong, yes, but we have the numbers. If I really let you escape, I’ll have no face to stay here!" Hei Chen waved his hand, signaling for all the Void Spirit Stage demons to surround them. In this situation, only experts of the Void Spirit Stage could be of any real use.
In an instant, many more Void Spirit Stage experts swarmed forward. The number of Void Spirit Stage experts surrounding Lin Xuan’s group instantly swelled to over a dozen! It was a truly terrifying sight. A combined attack from more than ten Void Spirit Stage Demon Race experts would be absolutely apocalyptic.
And so it proved. After launching their attacks, they unleashed the Black Dragon Race’s unique Martial Art, Dragon Devouring Spirit. A black, devouring mist billowed toward the group, seeking to seal them in completely.
BOOM!
A terrifying golden ray blasted upwards, but when it slammed into the black cloud, it only caused a slight tremor before being absorbed. It failed to even open the smallest of gaps!
"Flee through the gap!"
Bingxin didn’t hesitate, pulling Lin Xuan and charging toward another opening. Jin Wei and the others followed close behind. The Dragon Devouring Spirit, when jointly cast, was simply too formidable. If it were only two or three of them casting it, they might have been able to break through, but now there were seven or eight working together, with several others dedicated to blocking their path.
"Hehehe, you’re not getting away... With your paltry numbers, you think you can escape?" Hei Chen laughed aloud. They had made ample preparations; of course he wasn’t afraid of Lin Xuan and the others escaping.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Just as they tried to escape through a gap not yet covered by the black cloud, more experts flew up to block them, immediately launching a frantic barrage of attacks. They were temporarily halted. Although Jin Wei and the others managed to neutralize the attacks with their domineering power, it was still incredibly difficult to push forward.
The situation was gradually becoming more severe. If they were enveloped by that black cloud, they would truly be finished. The cloud would absolutely drain them dry!
This Dragon Devouring Spirit was simply too Heaven-Defying. Whoever created such a Martial Art was a true monster—or perhaps a pervert! Of course, it was related to the Black Dragon Race’s own Dark Attribute; their entire existence was based on devouring.
"Illusionary Charm Domain!"
The Fox King let out a sharp cry and, without hesitation, burned her Essence Blood to unleash her strongest Martial Art. A vast Illusionary Charm Domain spread outwards, launching a ferocious assault on the surrounding Demon Race members.
"AHHH..."
They screamed in agony, and a great number of the Demon Race were instantly affected. The Fox King’s power was no joke. The Dragon Devouring Spirit was not very effective against this type of Soul Attack.
"Run!"
After unleashing the attack, the Fox King’s face turned pale. It was clear that the move had taken a massive toll on her body.
"Black Dragon Race..." Lin Xuan clenched his fists, his eyes filled with killing intent. But right now, he was completely unable to help. His Cultivation was still too low!
’If my Cultivation was high enough,’ he thought, ’I’d slaughter every last one of these Demon Race members!’
