Chapter 270: Sudden Change in Battle, Fighting to the End! Ancestral Sacrifice, Boundless Power (Part 2)
Boom!
For a moment, the sound that made one's eardrums tremble and almost shatter finally rumbled.
At the same time, the sword light shattered, transforming into countless 'Streamlight Sword Aura' and shooting towards An Lan.
Buzz!
The Immortal Shield vibrated, activating the 'Immortal Force Shield' and blocking all the sword auras.
However, Jiang Taixu was pierced by the Crimson Peak Spear, his blood staining the sky.
"Ah!"
Jiang Taixu roared and slashed out with his sword again, forcibly breaking free, but the large hole in his chest was lit up from front to back, and his heart had exploded.
His entire body was covered in cracks, like a porcelain vessel about to shatter at any moment.
But in the end, he managed to hold on.
"Divine King Regeneration Technique!"
He utilized his divine technique, rapidly healing his injuries, and at the same time, he faced his opponent once more! In this battle, he was at a huge disadvantage!
Crimson Peak Spear, Immortal Shield...
These were two extremely astonishing Imperial Armaments.
Especially in the hands of An Lan, who was already stronger, this was even more so.
Like the 'Contradiction' between the spear and the shield.
In An Lan's hands, the Crimson Peak Spear was the strongest spear.
In his hands, the Immortal Shield was the strongest shield.
Who would win if the Crimson Peak Spear pierced the Immortal Shield? No one knew.
But at this moment, the strongest spear and the strongest shield were both in An Lan's possession, making him incredibly powerful and virtually invincible!
He could withstand the opponent's offense with the Immortal Shield.
His offense, on the other hand, the opponent couldn't block! Even the White-Robed Divine King, Jiang Taixu, was at a huge disadvantage.
Fortunately, although his defense was far inferior to An Lan's, his Divine King Regeneration Technique was also extremely abnormal. Even if he suffered heavy injuries, he could recover within a short time, ensuring he wouldn't be defeated or killed in a short time.
And this was enough!
As long as he could hold An Lan back, the advantage would belong to the Jiang Family.
The great battle continued.
Or rather...
Jiang Taixu was being one-sidedly bullied.
The only use was to keep An Lan occupied.
At this moment, An Lan, as he had said, with the Crimson Peak Spear and the Immortal Shield in hand, was invincible in the world, slaying all enemies. Even the second strongest in the world could only passively take the beating, relying on 'Sustainability' to preserve his life!
"Oh my god!"
The crowd of onlookers in the distance were all shocked and horrified, feeling their scalps tingle as they witnessed this scene.
"Is this An Lan's strength?"
"Shh, do you want to die? How dare you directly call his name?"
"If he senses you, your entire clan will die."
"Ah?!"
Someone was almost scared to pee.
But An Lan's strength was truly exceptional.
He shocked everyone, leaving them in disbelief.
Even though they knew An Lan was strong, the 'World's Number One', they never imagined he would be this powerful.
Even the second strongest in the world was completely overwhelmed!
"Hiss!!!"
Deep underground.
Fan Jianqiang stared at the Eightfold Mirror's display, frantically inhaling in shock: "So strong!"
"He's not faking it, he really has this kind of strength!!!"
"I thought he'd be exposed as a fraud."
He felt it was absurd.
Damn it, An Lan really did it!
Lin Fan aimed at another Eighth Stage Apex cultivator, preparing to shoot while saying, "An Lan is already strong. Unless he encounters that kind of person or a higher-level existence, there are truly few who can defeat him."
"After all..."
"Otherwise, how would he suppress the foreign realm?"
"Suppress the foreign realm?" Su Yan was surprised. "Which foreign realm?"
Lin Fan: "..."
"Cough, I mean, here."
"Ahem, I mean, this isn't the Immortal Martial Continent, what else could it be if not a foreign realm?"
"That's true."
Su Yan had no doubts.
Fan Jianqiang spread his hands: "No problem."
...
Jiang Taixu was still being bullied!
He wasn't weak, if both sides had the same equipment, even if he was slightly weaker, he wouldn't be in such a dire situation.
Unfortunately, there was no 'if'.
He only had one Imperial Armament-level Immortal Sword, and facing An Lan, who was already stronger than him, he could only be bullied.
He could only rely on the Divine King Regeneration Technique to hold off An Lan, preventing him from leaving.
But An Lan was ruthless, relentlessly tormenting him!
However...
It seemed like he had the advantage and was tormenting Jiang Taixu, but in his heart, he felt increasingly 'sad' and 'anxious'! Tormenting Jiang Taixu was satisfying, but what was the point?
He realized that Jiang Taixu's divine abilities were truly abnormal, especially this so-called Divine King Regeneration Technique, which was like a mobile spring.
As long as he didn't kill him instantly, he could continuously recover at an incredibly fast rate.
His offense was something he couldn't ignore, and he had to receive it!
This caused him to be unable to break free, only to be entangled by Jiang Taixu.
He himself was fine.
But...
His clan couldn't hold on!
...
"Clan Leader, save me!"
The Ninth Stage cultivator, besieged by Jiang Kun and two others, cried for help, he couldn't hold on any longer!
Facing Jiang Kun, he was evenly matched, neither could do anything to the other, and if they really wanted to determine a winner, even if it meant fighting to the death, it would take at least a few months or even years! And even then, both sides would have to be determined to die, without escaping.
Otherwise, neither could kill the other.
They were of the same level.
But...
Now it was three against one! Especially these two who suddenly appeared, Ninth Stage cultivators he didn't know at all, both stronger than Jiang Kun, with countless strange and rare one-time magical artifacts.
The battle lasted only a short time, but he had suffered greatly, and now, he couldn't hold on any longer.
He was terrified.
If he continued like this...
He would surely be killed here.
He couldn't bear it and desperately called for help.
An Lan's expression darkened, and he was about to turn back to save him.
But how could Jiang Taixu let him get away? He swept his Immortal Sword, blocking An Lan: "Your opponent is me!"
An Lan raged, truly unleashing his power, the Crimson Peak Spear shining brighter than the sun.
But...
He still couldn't instantly kill Jiang Taixu.
"Ahh!"
At that moment, the Ninth Stage member who had cried for help was bleeding profusely.
His Divine Sense screamed in an attempt to escape, but it was forcefully 'caught' and thrown into the furnace to be burned and refined.
"Continue!"
One of the group members spoke up.
The three of them immediately rushed towards Jiang Shang's opponent without hesitation.
Four against one!
"No!!!
This was a female Ninth Stage cultivator, the only female Ninth Stage member in the An Family. At this moment, she was terrified and shouted for mercy.
But...
In a life-and-death battle, how could they stop just because the enemy cried out? A black-robed Ninth Stage cultivator coldly smiled and said, "When a woman says no, it means yes."
"Kill!"
Four against one.
Two of them were even using Battle Puppets...
She was no match for them, and soon followed her clansmen's fate.
Her Divine Soul wailed in the furnace, and it grew weaker and weaker...
"Let's deal with the lesser enemies first!"
Jiang Kun and the other three Ninth Stage cultivators spread out to eliminate the An Family members below the Ninth Stage'.
At the same time, Lin Fan, Song Ru, and others appeared and began to harvest heads.
As for An Lan...
He was too strong, and it would be difficult to kill him, so it was better to eliminate the An Family first.
"Ahhhh!"
An Lan roared in fury.
His hair fluttered as he raised his head.
At this moment, he could no longer remain calm.
The An Family... their fate was sealed.
In just a few dozen breaths, all the An Family members above the Sixth Stage and below the Ninth Stage had been wiped out!
They were slaughtered to the point of annihilation! If it weren't for the powerful Clan Protection Array and the deep foundation of various formations in the An Family's territory, everyone within the family might have perished.
This made An Lan's expression ice-cold.
"Good..."
"You... you're very good."
He spoke, no longer pretending, but with a chilling tone, his killing intent so thick it was almost palpable: "Indeed, you're very good!"
"Since it's like this, all of you can go and die for me."
"Surrender now!"
Jiang Taixu backed away slightly, his voice trembling: "Your An Family, it's over!"
"Is that so?"
An Lan asked in return.
"Can't you see that?"
"I can see it, but what of it?"
An Lan closed his eyes and then opened them again.
In the blink of his eyes, a great terror was brewing.
"With me, the clan will endure!"
"With just me, I am the Imperial Clan!"
"Today, when I destroy your Jiang Family, my An Family will still be the first in this realm!"
"Die!"
Boom!
From his eyes, two rays of divine light shot out, transforming into two illusory divine spears, charging towards Jiang Taixu.
The Crimson Peak Spear in his hand thrust forward.
Even the Immortal Shield abandoned its 'defense', switching to offense, and slammed down on Jiang Taixu with full force.
"Clan Leader, be careful!"
Jiang Kun, Jiang Shang, and the others rushed over, joining forces with Jiang Taixu to form the Three Talents Formation and resist together.
The two Ninth Stage cultivators also joined the fight, making it five against one!
However...
An Lan remained ferocious.
The power unleashed by the Crimson Peak Spear and the Immortal Shield in his hands made the five Ninth Stage cultivators working together feel overwhelmed. Although they didn't fall into a disadvantage, they struggled to suppress An Lan.
This battle shook the heavens and the earth, astonishing everyone.
An Lan's strength was awe-inspiring.
But...
No matter how strong he was, he was still just one person.
Moreover, Jiang Taixu and the two group members were not weak either, and as Battle Puppets, they frequently unleashed various techniques.
After about half an hour, An Lan gradually became exhausted and started to fall into a disadvantage.
But...
It would still take a considerable amount of time before he was defeated or killed.
At the same time, inside the An Family's territory.
The remaining 'elderly, weak, women, and children' were all filled with worry and anger.
Hatred had permeated their hearts and minds.
In this battle, they had lost too many 'loved ones'.
At this moment, seeing their Clan Leader gradually falling into a disadvantage, their anger turned into madness.
And it was hard to suppress.
"The Clan Leader is declining!"
"We are all members of the An Family, and we should contribute to the family."
"Everyone..."
"Blood Sacrifice ourselves to empower the Clan Leader!"
"Blood Sacrifice!!!"
Some of the more passionate An Family members even started to perform Blood Sacrifices! They used their own lives as a price, gathering the blood essence of their clansmen to empower An Lan, covering his body with a layer of Blood Aura.
His battle prowess surged instantly.
The tide of battle turned in an instant, from being at a disadvantage to gaining the upper hand, and even hinting at further dominance.
"All of you, die!"
"You will be buried with my clan!"
An Lan roared in fury, his battle prowess reaching an unprecedented peak.
"Blood Sacrifice!"
Jiang Taixu and the other four Great Power cultivators paled.
The Blood Sacrifice of one's own clansmen was a desperate yet heroic measure.
Of course, it was heroic on their side, but on the enemy's side... it was terrifying.
Especially for someone as powerful as An Lan, once his 'clansmen were sacrificed', he would truly have 'boundless power'.
An Lan 'exploded'.
In a short time, he suppressed the five cultivators, almost as if he were holding them down!
His battle prowess left everyone speechless.
Lin Fan took out the Curse Scroll, frantically cursing An Lan while sending a telepathic message to Fan Jian: "Brother Two, do you have any more trump cards that can be used?"
"You said the formation could only hold them for an hour, and most of that time has already passed. If we drag this on, and those two Ninth Stage cultivators come out, the situation will become even more complicated."
"But in the remaining time, they won't be able to defeat An Lan."
Lin Fan had no way to deal with a freak like An Lan.
Among those he had encountered, only the Gatling Bodhisattva was stronger than him.
As for the others, even the Great Vehicle Buddhism Lord might be weaker than An Lan, who was empowered by the Blood Sacrifice of his clansmen.
This guy might have been pretending, but he truly had the strength to back it up.
His power was even slightly stronger than that of the Holy Land Master.
He was simply freakish.
Aside from the Curse Scroll, Lin Fan truly had no other means.
Not to mention that even if the main body were here, it would be useless.
The gap is still too wide.
This makes Lin Fan feel powerless.
"Damn it, even those below the Ninth Stage are like ants. Although everyone knows this and says it, this feeling is still frustrating."
Lin Fan frowned inwardly, "Is there a way or secret technique that can allow me and my disciples to have the strength to contend with the Ninth Stage, even the Eighth or Seventh Stage?"
"Not to mention defeating or killing, at least..."
"Just to ensure our safety?"
Lin Fan's heart once again produced this thought, and it was incredibly strong.
The Ninth Stage is too 'stubborn'.
With the support of Immortal Energy, fighting against those below the Ninth Stage is like a dimensional strike.
Even if you are an incredible existence in the Eighth Stage, encountering the Ninth Stage, it is still difficult to reverse the situation.
Lin Fan even estimates that even someone like Dragon Aotian would have a hard time dealing with the Ninth Stage... Even a newly entered Ninth Stage would require at least the late or peak of the Eighth Stage to accomplish it!
This can clearly show the gap.
After all, before this, Dragon Aoqiao was able to fight across one or even two major realms and kill enemies!
To deal with the Ninth Stage, entering the Ninth Stage oneself is the most direct approach.
However...
The path of cultivation is a challenging journey.
The higher the realm, the slower the breakthrough.
Lin Fan estimates that whether it's himself or his numerous disciples, wanting to break through to the Ninth Stage would still require at least several years.
It seems slow?
In reality, it is already considered incredible!
For ordinary cultivators, it might take a thousand, ten thousand, or even a hundred thousand years to break through!
As for sharing... Although there are many A-grade disciples with top-tier talent in the Moon Embrace Sect, but... Even if there are ten disciples at the Seventh or Eighth Stage, they still cannot pool their cultivation to reach the Ninth Stage.
Immortal Energy!
Without Immortal Energy in the body, no matter how abundant one's cultivation is, it is difficult to have an effect.
Sharing cultivation is only a quantitative change.
But the Eighth Stage to the Ninth Stage is a 'qualitative change'.
"So, in the end, the key to everything lies in the two words 'Immortal Energy'."
"Without Immortal Energy, without qualitative change, everything is useless."
"As for Immortal Energy..."
"Speaking of which, I remember Huan Tian Di had a technique."
"Before becoming an immortal, he cultivated three strands of Immortal Energy..."
"Afterward, I can try to create this technique."
He wants to become stronger!
He doesn't want to feel so powerless.
Even if the opponent is in the Ninth Stage, he doesn't want to rely solely on others.
This feeling is truly unpleasant.
Even though his own cultivation progress is considered incredible, who wouldn't want to take it further?
After all, enemies won't stop advancing.
Even if the current enemy is defeated, who can guarantee that the next enemy won't be stronger, or that the next enemy force won't have a Ninth Stage cultivator?
"This matter is of utmost importance. After dealing with the An Family, I'll immediately get to work on it!"
"Also, with the Body Transformation Array, I should be able to collect the necessary materials during this trip. After returning, I can start working on it."
"..."
Lin Fan's eyes were piercing, his thoughts racing.
It seems slow, but in reality, all of this happened in an instant.
Fan Jiqiang responded with a wry smile, "Master, you understand me."
"I understand."
Lin Fan muttered, "There must be something!"
Fan Jiqiang, "..."
"As expected, you are indeed my master. But my trump cards are truly few, and this is the last one."
"Okay, okay, okay."
Lin Fan agreed and reassured him, "Don't worry, regarding consumption and such, after dealing with the An Family, we'll go to the Jiang Family to get some good stuff. Meanwhile, I'll have your fellow disciple buy some things you need from the Group Mall, so your trump cards will only increase, not decrease!"
"That's very kind of you."
Fan Jiqiang smiled.
Then, he took out a seemingly unremarkable little trinket.
"What is this?"
Lin Fan asked.
Su Yan and Song Ru, who were intently watching the battle, also turned to look, showing curiosity.
"A little trinket I obtained by chance."
Fan Jiqiang explained, "It's quite useless, so I've never used it myself."
"And its effect is also quite limited."
"Using a familiar term for us... it's like selecting a target, removing buffs, and for half an hour, it isolates all buff effects."
"..."
The three of them were stunned.
Such a 'divine artifact', you say it's useless?
Amazing!
You're simply incredible, little brother!
Song Ru couldn't help but curse, "Damn, fellow cultivator, brother, is this trinket useless? How about I trade a treasure for it?"
"An extremely fine Dao weapon, a flying sword made with top-quality materials, it's definitely amazing!"
Upon hearing this, Fan Jiqiang's eyes lit up.
But soon after, he hesitated.
The three of them were shocked!
What the hell?
He actually wants to trade?
He's quite tempted?
What the hell?
But soon, Lin Fan realized what was going on.
This thing, to other cultivators, is indeed a 'divine artifact'.
After all, for cultivators, buffs are an important part of combat power enhancement.
Who doesn't cultivate some buff-related secret techniques?
Like Xiao Ling'er, if she doesn't add buffs to herself, it's like having the Immortal Fire Nine Transformations and various burst-type secret techniques for nothing.
Crazy!
If it's a direct confrontation, directly removing the opponent's buffs and increasing one's own win rate... But for someone like Gou Sheng, everything makes sense.
After all, he doesn't engage in direct combat!
He usually doesn't take action, but when he does, he directly pits the opponent and then liberates a dragon...
"Cough, this is of utmost importance. After dealing with the An Family, I'll immediately get to work on it!"
"As for the rest, with the Body Transformation Array, I should be able to collect the necessary materials during this trip. After returning, I can start working on it."
"..."
Lin Fan and Jiqiang's intense gaze, their thoughts racing.
It seems slow, but in reality, all of this happened in an instant.
