Chapter 40: This young master is too lazy to bother with you

  Determined that his own Yin-Yang Devouring could also devour other living beings, including the bats in front of him, Lin Fan decided that this time he absolutely would not let go of this opportunity. He first devoured the group of bats and then thought about it, perhaps his cultivation could be further advanced.

  He didn't use the Dragon Ascension or the Black Giant Sword again, Lin Fan's hands moved up and down together, grabbing a bat to perform the Yin-Yang Devouring. Unlike the Five Elements Shift, the Yin-Yang Devouring mainly relied on devouring the essence and battle energy of other warriors to nourish himself, while the Five Elements Shift was used for survival.

  Yin and Yang's devouring seemed even more overbearing than Xiao Rou Tuan's roar, in less than a moment, the bats swallowed by Lin Fan were at least hundreds, although from a distance, the number of bats didn't seem to have decreased at all, but at this moment, Lin Fan was like a child who had just received a new toy, no matter how he played with it, he couldn't feel tired.

  After swallowing the essence of over a hundred bats, Lin Fan finally felt an unusual sensation in his body. Although his strength hadn't increased in the slightest, the essence seemed to have become much more refined.

  The most important thing in a warrior's body is the essence of blood. A warrior has only about 100 drops of essence of blood, and it can be said that every drop of essence of blood is crucial to the warrior. The day when the essence of blood no longer exists in the body is also the day when the warrior falls.

  Heart thinks yin and yang devouring is against the sky, it can actually devour the bat's essence blood to strengthen its own essence blood. Now Lin Fan is full of confidence in the yin and yang devouring he just obtained, no longer hesitant. This time Lin Fan changed from being passive to active, turning the tables, taking the initiative to devour the bat.

  The left yin was born from yang, both hands came out together, as long as they grasped the bat, they immediately performed yin-yang absorption. As time slowly passed, Lin Fan absorbed more and more bats, while the number of bats in the passage gradually decreased. At this moment, the group of bats parted to make way for a path, and three figures walked slowly from afar.

  "Who is so bold as to dare trespass on the secret realm of Jiu You?"

  "I don't know, I just feel that the number of bloodthirsty bats has drastically decreased. Damn it, let me know who killed my sweetheart, I will chop him into pieces and wrap them in dumplings to eat."

  "Alright, both of you stop talking and go take a look quickly."

  As the voice drew near, three strange-looking people gradually appeared in front of Lin Fan. On the left was a big man with a bear-like appearance, tiger back and bear waist, his upper body covered in thick black hair that made one feel somewhat nauseous. In the middle was a thin old man with a hunched back, wearing a Taoist robe that was torn and tattered on his body. On the right was a woman, but she had a rough and savage appearance, giving off an androgynous feeling of being half-man and half-woman.

  "Who are you? Why have you appeared in the Jiu You Secret Realm?" Seeing the young man before them, all three of their faces were filled with shock and surprise. After all, for thousands of years, not a single outsider had ever come to the Jiu You tribe.

  "Who are you again?" Lin Fan was also slightly surprised to see the three of them, as he could sense a hint of threat emanating from their bodies. Lin Fan knew that the cultivation level of these three had at least reached the Great War Master realm.

  "It was you who killed my beloved, I will tear you to pieces today!", the hunchbacked Taoist let out a pig-slaughtering-like roar, looking at the withered bats on the ground, his heart felt as if it had been slashed by a knife several times, almost getting him to faint from anger.

  The black bear and the demon saw the corpses of bats all over the ground, also a gloomy scene. The bloodthirsty bat, as the guardian of the passage, had been doing its job for countless years, but now it didn't expect such severe casualties, not giving Lin Fan any chance to explain. The three quickly approached him, just like Lin Fan had guessed in his heart, all three were great war masters.

  Grandmaster, building the foundation and gathering the origin to enter the gate of war, can release battle energy to protect oneself, and can add battle energy to increase power on the battlefield. Primary Grandmaster can release extended three feet of battle energy, Intermediate Grandmaster can release extended six feet of battle energy, Advanced Grandmaster can release extended nine feet of battle energy.

  The Hunchback Daoist's weapon is a skull-topped crutch, while the Black Bear and the Human Yaksha have no weapons. The three of them have all reached the middle level of Great War Masters, able to release a three-foot aura.

  The Great War Master and the War King are two levels of existence. The Great War Master can only release war energy externally, but cannot leave his body, while the War King can completely separate his war energy from his body, breaking through the air to injure his enemies. The biggest difference between the Great War Master and the War King lies in the fact that once one's cultivation reaches the realm of the War King, it is considered a true entry into the Pre-Heavenly stage, and killing a Great War Master with a single hand is simply effortless.

  There was a sense of helplessness in his heart. Although his strength had improved at present, he was still only an intermediate war master after all. He might not even be able to defeat one great war master, let alone three at once.

  Without the slightest hesitation, he drew out the black giant sword from behind his back, unleashing the first sword of the War Dragon's Decree: Ascending Dragon to Heaven. A dragon's roar instantly resounded, carrying the sword wind away, and for a moment, it even forced back three Great War Masters.

  After the shock, the three of them also had some doubts. Why would a stranger suddenly appear in the Jiuyou Secret Realm? His strength was actually so powerful. The dragon's roar made the three people think that Lin Fan was the incarnation of a giant dragon. If they hadn't confirmed that the person in front of them was indeed human, they would have really thought so.

  Three people released their battle aura, all of which were over six feet tall. In other words, within six feet, Lin Fan's life and death would be uncertain if he was touched by the three people's battle aura. However, with the black giant sword, he unleashed "Hidden Dragon Rising to Heaven", and for a moment, the three people couldn't get close to Lin Fan half a step.

  Lin Fan was very clear in his mind that this wouldn't work, the reason why the three of them were afraid of him was because they were afraid of the Hidden Dragon Ascending to Heaven technique he had just used. If they found out that his cultivation was only at the middle level of a Battle Master, they would definitely attack with all their might. At that time, even if he possessed the ability to pierce through heaven and earth, he wouldn't be able to leave the Jiuyou Clan alive.

  With a sword swing, both parties exchanged positions in the fighting process. Seizing the opportunity, Lin Fan didn't care if there was any danger at the end of the passage and directly recalled the black giant sword to hug the small meatball and shot it forward along the passage. He didn't give the three people any chance to think, and Lin Fan's figure had already disappeared at the end of the passage in front.

  Since the three people appeared, the bloodthirsty bat had long since disappeared without a trace. So until Lin Fan left, the bloodthirsty bat did not appear. In fact, the reason why the bloodthirsty bat has not appeared all this time is entirely because the hunchbacked Taoist does not want the bloodthirsty bat to have any more casualties, so the hunchbacked Taoist decided to make the bloodthirsty bat disappear.

  "You two stay here and remember, if this person comes out, no matter what the cost, you must keep him back." The hunchbacked man was really anxious, his angry face had turned into a pig's liver color, and his whole body seemed to be shaking violently.

  At this moment, the hunchbacked Taoist is the most terrifying. All along, the hunchbacked Taoist has treated the blood-sucking bats as his own sons, and even if one of them dies, he will cry for several days and nights. Now that nearly a hundred blood-sucking bats have died at once, it's like cutting flesh from the hunchbacked Taoist's body, knife by knife, a pain a million times more painful than being cut.

  "Don't worry, we'll be keeping watch here," they had just said when the hunchbacked man's figure vanished into the distance of the passageway.

  "You little beast, no matter where you flee to the ends of the earth, I will definitely catch up with you, cut your flesh, drink your blood, and pull out your tendons."

  "My god, this young master is too lazy to bother with you", he didn't even bother to turn his head to glance at the hunchbacked Daoist, thinking that you still don't know what's right or wrong, just now it was clearly your bat that wanted to eat me, luckily this young master has yin-yang devouring, otherwise I would have already become the bat's appetizer.

  Furthermore, what's wrong with this young master devouring your bat? Are you allowed to let your bat kill me, but I'm not allowed to retaliate? Is there such a good thing in the world? Lin Fan even thought that the old man with a hump on his back who had been chasing him all along might have a problem with his brain, or maybe his brain was just flooded.

  Soon, Lin Fan arrived at a three-forked road, with three paths to the left, middle and right. Ahead of him were three paths he didn't know which one to take, behind him was an old man with a humpback who was furious and wanted to kill him. At this moment, Lin Fan had to make the fastest choice, otherwise the consequences would be unthinkable.

  Which of the three channels to choose, feeling the old man's approaching footsteps behind him, Lin Fan gritted his teeth and went straight to the left channel without considering anything else.

  Lin Fan's figure had just disappeared into the left passage when the hunchbacked Daoist arrived at the three forks, his face filled with anger and solemnity. According to the Mingwen rules of the Jiuyou tribe, no member of the Jiuyou tribe was allowed to enter the left or right passages without permission.

  The hunchbacked Daoist was speechless in his heart, thinking that the beast why didn't choose the middle path, but instead chose the left path. If the young man had chosen the middle path, he would have been able to chase him all the way, even to the ends of the earth, and kill him. But the left path was the Jiuyou Forbidden Land, and he didn't have the qualifications to enter it.

  However, the hunchbacked Taoist did not leave, but instead sat quietly in front of the left passage waiting. If the young man really escaped from the Jiuyou Forbidden Land after a great calamity, then what awaited him would be his fatal blow. No matter what price he had to pay, he wanted to avenge his dead sons.

  A bloodthirsty bat was summoned, and the hunchbacked Taoist whispered a few words in its ear. The bat quickly disappeared, and soon after, a black bear and a human-yao arrived hastily, asking: "Did he enter the Jiu You Forbidden Land?"

  He nodded, and the hunchbacked Daoist also had a helpless expression as he said: "We don't have the qualifications to enter the Jiu You Forbidden Land at all, unless we ask for the help of the Great Elder. But my relationship with the Elders isn't very good. Human demon, you have the best relationship with the Elders, can you go and invite one of them over? As long as they can capture this person, I will definitely thank you properly."

  The demon's face was also somewhat solemn, but he still said: "Helping you invite the elder is not impossible, as long as I can invite an elder, you must promise me to pass on your Bloodthirsty Great Method to me".

  "Alright, for my deceased sons, as long as you can get the elder to help me, I will pass on the Bloodthirsty Great Method to you", For the recently deceased bats, the hunchbacked Taoist seemed to have made up his mind.
