99: Chapter 99 Oh, a guest has arrived!
"Since you've come, then don't even think about leaving."
Lin Fan's gaze was cold as he swung the long saber in his hand.
"Kill!!"
Like a tiger entering a flock of sheep!
Having just broken through to the fourth layer of the Tyrant Body Art, Lin Fan's physical body was comparable to a King Rank Fierce Beast. These ordinary fierce beasts were incredibly fragile before him.
Puff! Puff! Puff!
One snake head after another flew up, and fresh blood dyed the ground red.
In just a few short minutes, dozens of high-rank fierce beasts were all dead.
"Rise!"
With a wave of his hand, Lin Fan threw all the snake corpses, including that massive King Rank python, into the Heavenly Serpent Blood Pool ahead.
Gurgle, gurgle!
The blood pool began to boil even more violently.
Countless amounts of essence blood were refined and flowed into the pool. The originally bright red pool water had now turned into a dark gold color, emitting heart-palpitating energy fluctuations.
"This is the final sprint."
Lin Fan pulled the "Snake King Crystal Core" he had snatched from the Black Stone Castle out of his robes and swallowed it without hesitation.
Plop!
He leaped and jumped into the deepest part of the blood pool.
Rumble—!!
The entire Ten Thousand Snakes Grotto was vibrating.
Lin Fan was like a bottomless pit, crazily devouring the bloodline essence that had accumulated over thousands of years.
One day... two days...
Ten days later.
The pool that was originally full of blood water had actually dried up!
Only a single figure remained sitting cross-legged at the bottom of the pool.
At this moment, the scales on Lin Fan's body had disappeared, and his skin had returned to normal, yet it emitted a luster as warm and smooth as jade.
Behind him, the phantom image of a great sun faintly emerged, and within that great sun, a True Dragon was swimming.
Divine Ability—Great Sun True Dragon!
"Is this... the fifth layer?"
Lin Fan slowly opened his eyes.
There was no earth-shaking eruption of aura, only a return to a primordial state of calm.
But he casually clenched his fist.
Buzz!
The air was directly crushed by his grip, letting out a crisp pop.
His pure physical strength was already enough to go head-to-head with a Domain King Realm!
"Now, even without using the great xia dragon sparrow, I can blow up that black snake with a single punch."
Lin Fan nodded with satisfaction.
Just then.
Buzz—!
At the bottom of the dried-up pool, those runes that were originally covered up suddenly lit up with a dazzling golden light.
Lin Fan only felt the True Dragon bloodline within his body surge; it actually produced a strong resonance with these runes.
"This is..."
Lin Fan immediately activated his Bright Heart Dharma Eye and stared fixedly at those runes.
In his field of vision, those obscure and difficult-to-understand lines began to reorganize and evolve.
A heart-stirring scene appeared in his mind.
It was an Immemorial True Dragon whose body spanned an unknown number of tens of thousands of miles, coiled within the starry sky. A single drop of its blood fell, transforming into countless giant snakes.
"So that's how it is!!"
Lin Fan's pupils shook violently. "The ancestors of the Heavenly Snake Clan... were actually descendants of the True Dragon bloodline! Or rather... transformed from a single drop of the True Dragon's tainted blood?!"
This explained why the Heavenly Snake Clan had always been pursuing dragonification, and why there were True Dragon runes here!
As the runes were continuously analyzed, a golden, shimmering scripture gradually emerged.
[Detected remnants of High-Rank Laws!]
[Analyzing...]
[Congratulations to the Host! Obtained Peerless Divine Ability—True Dragon Precious Art (Remnant)!]
[Comprehended Battle Technique—True Dragon Overlord Fist!]
Boom!!
Lin Fan's brain shook violently.
True Dragon Precious Art!
That was the innate divine ability of the True Dragon race, one of the legendary ten fiends! Even if it was just a remnant, its power far exceeded the so-called Saint Laws of the human race!
"True Dragon dominates the heavens, the fist suppresses the mountains and rivers!"
Lin Fan subconsciously stood up and, following the sensation in his mind, slowly threw out a punch.
This punch was very slow.
But as the fist advanced, a resonant dragon roar echoed through the nine heavens.
Ang—!!
A golden phantom of a True Dragon charged out from his fist, carrying an overbearing aura of a sovereign that ruled the world, and slammed heavily into the rock wall above.
Rumble—!!!
The core area of the entire Ten Thousand Snakes Grotto collapsed instantly!
That incredibly hard rock layer was pulverized before this punch. A terrifying fist force directly pierced through a thousand meters of earth, punched through the entire mountain peak, and shot straight into the clouds!
Sunlight spilled down through that massive hole.
It shone upon Lin Fan's ecstatic face.
"So strong!!"
Lin Fan looked at his own fist, his eyes full of disbelief.
"This divine ability, even if only the basics, is enough to shatter stars and suppress the universe. Is this the weight of a ten fiends Precious Art?"
Just then.
"Buzz—!"
The outer formation that had been modified by Lin Fan suddenly sent out a violent wave of fluctuations.
A terrifying aura barged in without any warning.
"Ancestor? Has the Ancestor manifested?!"
A voice of pleasant surprise rang out. An old man wearing green robes with eyes that were an eerie jade-green rushed into the core area with lightning speed.
It was precisely the Domain King Realm Expert of the Heavenly Snake Clan who was responsible for guarding the rear—King Biyan!
He had sensed the formation fluctuations and that terrifying bloodline aura inside the Ten Thousand Snakes Grotto and thought the legendary Old Snake King had been resurrected. He was so excited he even forgot to activate his defenses.
However.
When he rushed into the grotto and saw clearly the figure standing in the middle of the ruins, emitting golden light from his entire body, the smile on his face froze.
“Hu... Human?!”
King Biyan's eyes widened, and his mind went blank.
This was the forbidden land of the Heavenly Snake Clan! How could there be a human here?! And this aura...
"Oh, a guest has arrived?"
Lin Fan opened his eyes and smiled.
The next second.
Qiang—!!
The great xia dragon sparrow was unsheathed.
There was only pure saber intent.
Lin Fan simply swung out a casual strike.
As this strike was swung, King Biyan felt as if the world before him had disappeared, leaving only a cyan saber light that filled the heavens and earth.
"No—!!"
King Biyan let out a desperate roar, trying to expand his domain.
Puchi!
The saber light flashed past.
King Biyan's body still maintained its forward-charging posture, but his head had already flown high. The saber intent shredded his divine soul, wiping away the life force within his body along with it.
One strike!
An early-stage Domain King Realm had fallen!
"Too weak."
Lin Fan sheathed his saber, not even glancing at the corpse on the ground. "You don't even have the qualification to make me throw a punch."
However.
At the moment King Biyan fell.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Outside the Ten Thousand Snakes Grotto, nine terrifying auras suddenly erupted, shaking the entire Heavenly Snake Clan territory.
King Biyan's death had completely triggered the alarm of the remaining Domain King Realm Experts!
"Biyan is dead?!"
"There is a human expert inside!!"
"Surround him!! We must not let him escape!!"
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Nine streaks of light sped from the direction of the Imperial City, surrounding the Ten Thousand Snakes Grotto. Nine Domain King Realm Experts, with nine major domains overlapping, completely sealed off the space for a hundred miles around!
These were nine whole Domain Kings!
This force was enough to sweep through any war zone!
Zhen Yao City, Command Center.
“Beep! Beep! Beep!!”
The piercing alarm echoed through the hall.
"Report! An extremely high energy reaction has been detected in the heart of the Heavenly Snake Clan territory!!"
The technician's voice cracked. "Nine... nine high-energy heat sources! All of them are at the Domain King Realm!!"
"What?!"
Qin Mie and Zhao Baichuan, who were bandaging their wounds, stood up abruptly, their faces pale.
Nine Domain Kings?!
Did the Heavenly Snake Clan just mobilize their entire force?!
"The feed! Give me the feed!!"
Liu Haoran rushed to the large screen, his eyes bloodshot. "It must be Lin Fan! That kid is still inside!!"
"Accessing high-altitude drone... Signal lock successful!!"
