Best Young Master

Ye Fan stepped forward, picked up the rat that attacked him, and examined it carefully for a long time before saying seriously, "This planet is extremely dangerous, there might be a Saint Lord Level mutant beast here!"

"You don’t need to tell me for me to know this planet is extremely dangerous. We just arrived and already got attacked by such a huge rat—it’s unbelievable! But I don’t quite believe there could be a Saint Lord Level mutant beast on this Ancient Star," Bai Yan wolf agreed.

"What do you know!"

Ye Fan glanced at it, speaking gravely, "Rats as creatures have extremely strong adaptability, can survive in very harsh environments, and are communal animals. This rat that attacked us has already reached the late-stage Divine Realm, but it is definitely not the strongest on this Ancient Star; it might just be an ordinary rat."

"Just think about it, a whole horde, possibly millions of these rats, attacking you simultaneously—we might turn into a pile of bones in no time!"

Ye Fan was not exaggerating or spreading alarmist talk, but there was indeed such a possibility, and a very real one.

"Trying to scare me? I wasn’t scared of anything coming up. We encountered many powerful Star Sky Profound Beasts along the way, and yet we made it through, didn’t we? Just a measly rat, it’s not worth mentioning!"

Bai Yan wolf didn’t take Ye Fan’s words to heart at all, speaking disdainfully.

"I hope you can still make such boastful remarks later!"

Ye Fan smiled slightly and began carving a Dragon Seeking Kill Formation on the ground.

"What do you mean?"

Bai Yan wolf’s heart leapt; it sensed a hint of danger from Ye Fan’s smile, immediately summoning a Linglong Tower to hover over its head, where it emitted Divine Radiance to shroud it.

Just then, its keen spiritual sense suddenly detected trouble. Looking around warily, it saw the hills swarming with those foot-long giant rats, eyes alight with greedy ferocity, like demons emerging from hell, showing no fear of its Imperial bloodline.

"Oh dear, you cursed crow, you really spoke it into reality,"

Bai Yan wolf jumped up like a frightened rabbit, darting over to Ye Fan’s side.

Facing the sea of giant rats, Ye Fan’s expression remained steely, showing no signs of panic. Only when those rats were less than a foot away did he finally move.

"Buzz!"

Ye Fan stomped fiercely on the ground, instantly triggering the Dragon Seeking Kill Formation. Streams of Earth Vein Energy transformed into Killing Light and burst forth, annihilating all these rats at once. The stench of blood loomed large across the land, as if transforming the area surrounding Ye Fan and Bai Yan wolf into an Asura Killing Field.

"Haha... you filthy rats, dare to attack me? You really don’t know the meaning of death,"

Bai Yan wolf laughed arrogantly, assuming a haughty and invincible demeanor as if it lorded over the world.

"Don’t celebrate too soon. These are just the small fries sent to test us. The truly powerful hasn’t shown up yet," Ye Fan poured cold water over its spirits.

Bai Yan wolf deflated instantly. If these ordinary rats were already so mighty, a Saint Lord Level Rat King showing up would spell certain doom.

"Squeak, squeak..."

These rats, though powerful and with robust bodies, seemed to have opened no Spiritual Wisdom, knowing only to charge recklessly, vaulting into the Kill Formation to be shredded to bits.

It’s as if these rats on this Ancient Star consummate their existence by sacrificing themselves to fill the Kill Formation—grim to the extreme!

Tens of thousands of Star Sky Rats were ground into Blood Mud by the Kill Formation, yet its strength drained rapidly as it did so.

This was merely a hastily drawn formation by Ye Fan, though it tapped into a fraction of Earth Vein Dragon Qi to sustain its power and operation, yet its efficacy was limited.

Unbridled by fear of death, these Star Sky Rats pressed on valorously, pitting their flesh and blood against the Kill Formation. In mere moments, the entire formation was drenched in the pungent smell of blood, akin to Shura Hell.

The Kill Formation was swiftly wearing down, despite annihilating countless Star Sky Rats. But apparently, this planet had no other creatures apart from these weird beings.

Some Star Sky Rats had even reached the late-stage Lord Realm, or even the Lord Realm Peak, having extremely powerful bodies, almost too tough for the Kill Formation to completely annihilate.

Before long, Bai Yan wolf grew anxious. With such a multitude of Star Sky Rats throwing themselves in waves, the formation would sooner or later wear down, at which point they’d have nothing left to rely on but a desperate battle.

"This is too bizarre, have we stumbled into a rat’s nest? Could there really be no other creatures on this whole Ancient Star, only these wicked rats!"

Bai Yan wolf grumbled.

"Swish!"

Ye Fan gestured, capturing a Lord Realm Star Sky Rat, which he held and studied closely, discovering a peculiar energy pulsating within them.

"Sizzle!"

Ye Fan’s eyes emitted two beams of Divine Radiance, infiltrating the sea of consciousness of this Star Sky Rat, searching its consciousness for any useful information.

However—

To his disappointment, the sea of consciousness of this Lord Realm Star Sky Rat was filled with Chaos, apart from some instincts and killing drive, it harbored nothing else, as if it were a machine solely born for slaughter.

"Strange, how can this be?"

Ye Fan fell into deep thought. This was clearly not normal. Typically, powerful Star Sky Profound Beasts possess high intelligence, yet the Star Sky Rats on this Ancient Star hadn’t opened Spiritual Wisdom. How were they cultivating?

Nonetheless, it was obviously not the time to ponder such matters; tens of thousands of Star Sky Rats surged like dark tides into the Kill Formation, rapidly depleting its energy.

"Bang!"

An Array Pattern shattered, unable to withstand such a high intensity of slaughter; the Earth Vein Dragon Qi was insufficient to maintain the Kill Formation’s operation for too long.

Like a domino effect, other Array Patterns also crumbled, the power of the Kill Formation sharply diminished, the Star Sky Rats even more frenzied, seeming to overwhelm Ye Fan and Bai Yan wolf through sheer numbers.

Countless Star Sky Rats, baring ghastly fangs, rushed at them like a deluge, making one feel profoundly uncomfortable.

"Buzz!"

A streak of blood light appeared in Ye Fan’s palm, the Jing Tian Divine Spear emanating a sharp killing aura, with purple Thunder Power coiling around the spearhead, sparks flickering.

"Swish!"

Ye Fan swung the Jing Tian Divine Spear, unleashing the Heaven Slaying Seven Spears, instantly carving a bloody path through the rat swarm, the terrifying Thunder Power directly turning the obstructing Star Sky Rats to ashes.

"Ring-ding-ding..."

The killing array completely collapsed, Bai Yan wolf immediately summoned the Purple Gold Bell, emitting a wave of bell sounds that spread like waves.

"Thud-thud..."

The sky seemed to rain as massive Star Sky Rats were shocked to death by the bell sound, falling to the ground!

"How can we possibly finish them all off?"

Bai Yan wolf fully activated its imperial bloodline, its bloodline emanating a terrifying pressure.

The rank system of Xuan Beasts is intensely hierarchical, the imperial family having an instinctive pressure over ordinary Xuan Beasts, a pressure originating from the bloodline that transcends realm and strength, purely subduing the soul.

However—

Its bloodline pressure had almost no effect on this swarm of Star Sky Rats, as these Star Sky Rats hadn’t even developed Spiritual Wisdom.

Moreover, they’re not Xuan Beasts, but mutant beasts from the starry sky, long detached from the Xuan Beast category.

"Squeak-squeak..."

Countless Star Sky Rats blanketed the sky and earth endlessly, as if vowing not to rest until they’ve inundated them!

"Courting death!"

Ye Fan grew furious, these Star Sky Rats weren’t particularly powerful, but their sheer number was overwhelming, this Ancient Star seemed to be their hive.

"Buzz!"

Ye Fan expanded the Eight Phase World Domain; Unaffected by Ten Thousand Techniques, not a single Star Sky Rat could approach, while he unleashed various deadly techniques, slashing these repulsive Star Sky Rats!

"Ye, this isn’t going to work! There are too many rats on this Ancient Star. We can’t possibly kill them all, we must shake them off and quickly locate the Transmission Altar to leave!"

Bai Yan wolf said to Ye Fan while shaking the Purple Gold Bell, slashing out beams of Killing Light.

"I know, but we can’t shake them off now, let alone look for the altar!"

Ye Fan felt a bit frustrated too, he had experienced too much bloodshed over this time, and was growing weary.

But now, even if he wanted to stop, he couldn’t, these Star Sky Rats were too obnoxious, impossible to kill off!

"Don’t you have the domain known for the strongest defense? Anyway, these Star Sky Rats can’t break your defense, why not carve some killing arrays? I refuse to believe these Star Sky Rats are truly endless, surely we can wipe them all out!" Bai Yan wolf encouraged.

"Do you think carving a killing array is so easy? How about I protect you, and you carve the killing array!" Ye Fan flatly rejected its proposal.

Then Ye Fan suddenly seemed to remember something, slapped his forehead and said, "How did I forget about this move?"

"If you have a trump card, hurry and use it. This king can’t last much longer, activating the Purple Gold Bell is consuming too much Divine Power." Bai Yan wolf shouted loudly.

"Swoosh!"

A ruby-like gem, flowing with crimson clouds, appeared in Ye Fan’s palm, unmistakably the Li Huo Essence Jade he took from the Earth Fire Divine Dragon.

Ye Fan circulated Xuantong, profound techniques flowing through body, Heaven and Earth Shattering, the nearby Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi were instantly attracted by him, absorbed into his body like a vortex, transforming into Divine Power.

Following that, he activated the Li Huo Essence Jade, stirring the Earth Core Divine Fire, instantly striking out!

"Boom!"

The Divine Fire split the heavens, the terrifying high temperature instantly causing the space to collapse, large numbers of Star Sky Rats were reduced to ashes.

"Whew!"

Bai Yan wolf had sensed danger when Ye Fan activated the Li Huo Essence Jade, and directly used the Purple Gold Bell to take itself in, avoiding the terrifying high temperature of the Divine Fire.

"Squeak-squeak..."

Countless Star Sky Rats were scorched to ashes by the Divine Fire, a strange roasted meat smell permeating the world, nauseating upon inhalation.

At this moment, Ye Fan suddenly noticed a gigantic golden rat, as if cast from Sun God Gold, mountain-sized, emitting sharp cries from afar, seemingly commanding other Star Sky Rats.

"Swish!"

Ye Fan’s divine consciousness integrated into the Earth Core Divine Fire, instantly condensing into a Killing Sword, fiercely slashing towards the golden Star Sky Rat.

The resplendent Sword Radiance dimmed even the sunlight in the sky, the terrifying aura of Destruction surging like tides across the world!
