Chapter 868 - 458: Time Law—The Ancient Ruins Concealing Countless Precious Exotic Materials
At this moment.
The Demon Leader’s heart was filled with a mix of shame and fear.
Earlier it had claimed that "using the Carmenians as bait would surely severely wound or even kill the Canglan Spirit Crow", but it ended up falling right into the opponent’s trap.
The methods of the Canglan Spirit Crow were too formidable, and even now, it had yet to figure out what exactly happened.
In front of several fellow demons, how could the leader not feel both shame and fury?
This ancient relic was extremely eerie, clearly perilous, and with the Canglan Spirit Crow lurking nearby, how could the leader not be terrified?
At this point.
The leader steadied itself, looked up toward the sky, and shouted loudly, "Canglan Spirit Crow, what do you want us to do?"
Relying on its formidable power, it faintly sensed something unusual above, and intuition told it that this was the opponent’s handiwork.
After a moment.
Yang Fan’s voice came with a hint of amusement, "Mr. Ge Gui, do you wish to use this dialogue to pinpoint my soul’s shadow, and then launch the ’Soul Stealer Blood Sacrifice’ Secret Technique to attack me?"
He paused for a moment and spoke earnestly, "I sincerely advise you not to do this."
Ge Gui was secretly horrified as it suddenly realized that its side might have severely underestimated the power of the Canglan Spirit Crow.
Its vertical pupils flickered, and it couldn’t help but ask, "How do you know about the Soul Stealer Blood Sacrifice?"
Within the Qing yang Demon Race, the Soul Stealer Blood Sacrifice was a highly complex advanced Secret Technique, many demons hadn’t even heard of it, and even fewer demons had mastered it.
The Canglan Civilization has been in the Civilization World for over three years, and their so-called "top experts" were nothing in comparison to their kind, yet the opponent knew about the Soul Stealer Blood Sacrifice, which truly made the leader a bit incredulous.
Yang Fan spoke leisurely, "It seems you’re still not giving up."
He had studied the Qing yang Book, mastering hundreds of blood sacrifice Secret Techniques, having greater ability in this area than Ge Gui, thus revealing the leader’s intention in a single statement.
Ge Gui decisively shouted, "Kill!"
The leader knew very well that without eliminating the Canglan Spirit Crow, there was no way to escape this eerie ancient relic, so it had to try no matter what.
At the same time, its left arm exploded with a "puff" into a cloud of blood mist.
Blood sacrifices can target others as well as oneself, and the leader, unable to find a sacrifice, could only use part of its own body as a sacrifice.
The blood mist transformed into an arrow of blood, shooting upwards fiercely, instantly hitting the abnormal point it sensed.
In an instant.
Ge Gui suddenly felt a tremendous sense of crisis, instinctively stepping sideways.
But it was half a beat too slow.
The blood arrow above vanished instantly, then appeared out of thin air two meters behind the leader, striking its right arm like lightning.
Ge Gui’s entire right arm turned to ash in an instant.
Yet it was remarkably resilient, merely letting out a muffled grunt.
On the surface, it seemed unscathed, but in reality, the injuries were substantial.
Because the Soul Stealer Blood Sacrifice was a rare Secret Technique capable of harming the soul.
However, compared to Yang Fan’s openly demonstrated Soul Stealer Three Whips, the power of the Soul Stealer Blood Sacrifice was considerably weaker.
The other five demons witnessed this scene, each shocked to their core.
But apart from adopting a highly vigilant stance, there was nothing else they could do.
Yang Fan sighed and said, "Mr. Ge Gui, I advised you earlier not to make any rash moves."
His tone was full of "if you don’t heed an elder’s advice, you’ll suffer the consequences," directly maximizing the sarcasm.
Ge Gui was greatly infuriated, its chest visibly fluctuating.
In truth.
Just before, Yang Fan had calculated that the leader would certainly attack him, so he merely used the new ability of the Space Pearl, "Space Manipulation," to quietly construct a space loop.
As a result, his judgment was proven correct, and the leader’s attack passed through the space loop, harming itself instead.
Yang Fan kindly offered another reminder: "Mr. Ge Gui, your actions have disturbed certain existences within the relic, and this relic is about to undergo some changes."
He had only spoken half of his sentence before the relic began to change.
The strange black and white colors rapidly retreated from the square as a starting point, spreading in all directions.
Colors of every hue returned to the square.
This was like a "world refresh".
More astonishingly, not only did the colors return, but the entire square took on a completely different appearance.
The sky was adorned with countless stars, slowly rotating, resembling a magnificent nebula.
The dusty square became spick and span, and all the surface cracks vanished.
The collapsed statues rose anew.
From their appearance, they were valiant warrior stone sculptures, wearing highly sci-fi fully enclosed armor, holding hazy light blades.
Hundreds of humanoid skeletons also resumed their pre-death forms.
Their average height was around 2.5 meters, taller than the Canglan People, with handsome men and beautiful, dignified women.
They wore exquisitely designed tight-fitting suits made of material that clearly contained Supernatural Power.
Many of them strolled casually across the square, their feet a hand’s distance from the ground, as if walking in the void.
"Woo~"
Accompanied by a soft whirring sound.
Several crescent-shaped silver spacecraft flew over the square, surrounded by a halo of light, moving neither fast nor slow.
They were evidently the true form of the mechanical remains.
With no tail flame at the back of the spacecraft, it meant they were powered by Black Technology’s anti-gravity engines.
In short, this was undoubtedly a highly advanced and powerful civilization.
