98: The Great War Begins

Below was Jinlin Villa.

From above, it didn't look special, much like an ordinary residential area.

"Let's start, don't let a single one escape."

"Mm."

Minister Jin nodded in agreement, and then the summoning Formation instantly lit up.

Two golden lights flashed instantly.

One quickly flew into the distance, while the other merged into Minister Jin's body, its light overflowing like a Divine Being.

"My Gold Devouring Bees are monitoring the perimeter; not a single person will escape."

"The underground location has been detected..."

After Qin Yan finished speaking, he immediately ordered the Eagle King to dive down, and at the same time, two summoning Formations instantly lit up.

One was the previous Ice Crystal Demon Python, its 30-meter-long body plunging straight into the ground like a missile, instantly reducing the entire villa to ruins, with half its body wildly churning underground, reaching the underground palace.

The other was a giant bear over ten meters tall, its entire body shimmering with metallic luster.

"Roar..."

The moment it landed, the earth trembled as if an earthquake had occurred.

"Damn, this brute!"

Minister Jin was directly thrown off when the Eagle King dived. In mid-air, a roc bird covered in crimson-gold feathers caught him, saving him from the embarrassment of falling directly to the ground.

Since Qin Yan chose to attack forcefully, Minister Jin also held nothing back. A Gold Rank Ghoul holding an alloy long staff landed directly and began to sweep through the surrounding buildings.

At this point, the combat power of the two Diamond Rank powerhouses was instantly maximized.

"Enemy attack..."

"Enemy attack..."

In the underground palace, rocks crumbled, and many people were sent sprawling.

Wu Dahai reacted immediately, choosing not to confront the enemy but instead rushing towards Lin Chuan's room. Even if he had to kill him, he couldn't let him be rescued.

Although he still didn't understand what the problem was, it didn't prevent him from making a decision instantly.

However, at this moment, Lin Chuan's room was already empty.

"Damn it! Where is he?"

The guard watching Lin Chuan, who had just managed to steady himself, was also utterly bewildered.

He could guarantee that no one had left, and the door hadn't even been opened.

Wu Dahai didn't bother to listen to the other party's explanation and directly slapped him to death.

The Monarch Rank aura that erupted outside instantly made his heart pound. If things went wrong, he might die here today.

However, he wouldn't just surrender.

Four summoning magic Formations instantly took shape:

A demon wolf, a bat, a Skeleton, and a bone blade that was dripping blood, with several eyeballs growing on its spine.

The Skeleton, whose origin was unknown, glowed red in its eye sockets. The moment it appeared, it automatically merged with Wu Dahai, forming a bone armor.

Subsequently, countless tentacles extended from the hilt of the bone blade, completely enveloping Wu Dahai's right hand, and the eyeballs on the blade's spine trembled, appearing as if they were about to open.

"Charge for me!"

"Roar..."

The demon wolf, originally several meters in size, instantly swelled to over twenty meters, emitting demonic flames, tearing up the entire ground, and engaging in a fierce battle with the Ice Crystal Demon Python.

Wu Dahai stood on the back of the bat, soaring into the sky, confronting the Giant Rock Eagle King and the Scarlet Flame Golden Roc.

"Qin Yan!"

Wu Dahai's eyes were cold, grinding his teeth in hatred.

"You know me, yet you dared to provoke me? Corrosive Devouring Blade Spirit, you are indeed an Elder of the Demon God Cult!"

Qin Yan was even angrier. The Demon God Cult's rat actually dared to take advantage of him.

If he succeeded, it would definitely make the other branches laugh their heads off.

There were hardly any Geniuses in District 81 to begin with; even rats shook their heads at the sight. It was hard enough for a Lin Chuan to appear, only to be targeted like this.

"Lin Chuan has already been moved to another location. If you don't want him to die, let's call off this fight, and I'll release him."

Wu Dahai was stalling for time while seeking a way to escape.

Now, with two Diamond Rank opponents no weaker than himself, he simply couldn't fight.

"Hehe..."

Qin Yan showed a mysterious smile on his face, then pulled out his phone, turning the volume to maximum:

"Old Qin, I'm fine, kill this old bastard..."

On the other end of the phone, it was Lin Chuan's voice.

"What?"

Wu Dahai's heart trembled.

Just then, all of Qin Yan's summoned beasts launched their strongest attacks simultaneously.

The giant python's tail, the golden ghoul's staff shadow, and the berserk bear's iron fist attacked the demon wolf almost simultaneously. They struck with full force.

In the air, wind blades and golden flames continuously shot towards Wu Dahai.

In an instant, the demon wolf was severely wounded and on the verge of death.

"Damn it, I'll risk it all."

Seeing that there was no way out today, Wu Dahai could only fight to the death... Inside the underground palace.

When Lin Chuan heard the first loud bang, he immediately activated the Void Sword, teleporting to another room.

The Clone, being a combination of Lin Chuan and the sword armor, could naturally also use skills.

At this moment, the entire palace was in chaos. Many cultists were crushed and struck, emitting cries of agony.

Lin Chuan didn't act rashly but instead sensed the Gray Snake.

The Black-Clothed Chief Priest, at this moment, wasn't thinking about how to escape, but rather was ecstatic.

His chance had come!

With his ability to traverse shadows, and Wu Dahai tying up two Diamond Rank powerhouses, he figured escaping shouldn't be a problem.

Now, the storeroom should have little to no guard... At this moment, his inner greed amplified to the extreme.

Following the Man in Black's perspective, Lin Chuan knew his plan.

"Damn it, stealing my stuff?"

Lin Chuan was furious; the items in the storeroom had long been reserved by him.

The Man in Black hadn't acted earlier, and now he wanted to plunder while the fire raged. How was this any different from killing him? Unbearable!

Inside the storeroom, several people were anxiously waiting.

Their duty was to guard the storeroom; if it was lost, they wouldn't live.

Suddenly, a figure seemed to hit something and was bounced out.

It was the Black-Clothed Chief Priest.

"This is really troublesome..."

He had originally thought that the recent earthquake would be enough to destroy the small Formation in the storeroom, but he didn't expect it to still be effective.

There was no other way, he could only... "Chief Priest!"

Upon seeing the Man in Black, the few people felt as if they had found their backbone.

"The Elder ordered me to guard the storeroom. Open the door and let me in."

"This... do you have the Elder's token?"

"The Elder is currently fighting the enemy; the situation is critical. How could there be time to prepare a token?"

"That's true, but, Chief Priest, the cult rules cannot be violated. It's just as good if you temporarily guard outside the door. With the Formation in place, ordinary people can only enter through the main door."

"..."

Lin Chuan had also secretly tried before, but he stopped at this step. This kind of small Formation was specifically designed to guard against spatial traversal skills.

Even the Gold Rank Black-Clothed Chief Priest couldn't do anything about it, let alone Lin Chuan.

"There's really no other way, do you have to force my hand..."

After saying that, three summoned beasts were instantly called out, and they immediately began a forceful assault.

With the storeroom's defenses, it would be forcibly breached in less than a minute.

Under normal circumstances, one minute would be enough for Wu Dahai to grind the Chief Priest to dust several times over.

However, with Wu Dahai preoccupied, this was the Chief Priest's best opportunity.

As long as he dealt with this wave, the resources in the storeroom would be enough for him to advance to Diamond Rank! By then, Wu Dahai would also be dead, and he could even become an Elder... Thinking of this, the flames in the Black-Clothed Chief Priest's eyes burned even brighter... "Boom! Boom!"

On the ground, a world-shattering battle of Diamond Rank powerhouses was raging.

It had already alarmed the entire District 81, as well as the surrounding Districts 80 and 79.

Many figures soared into the sky, but they only watched from afar, not daring to get involved.

Even though the Demon God Cult had been causing trouble in Xuanwu City for years, openly reviled by everyone, individuals or small Families without much power still dared not openly intervene.

This was also the main reason Qin Yan only invited Minister Jin.

At this moment, Wu Dahai's Night Wing Demon, that large bat, was also severely injured. Yet, he dared not recall it; once he landed, he would have no chance at all.

On Qin Yan and Minister Jin's side, although it was two against one, their main combat power was still on the ground.

Minister Jin was the main force, with an attached phantom beast, the Golden Spirit, a Scarlet Flame Golden Roc, and a Gold Devouring Bee for support, which was enough to fight Wu Dahai back and forth. Coupled with Qin Yan's Eagle King assisting with sneak attacks, although Wu Dahai's own strength was formidable, he couldn't unleash even five tenths of it.

The main reason was Qin Yan, that sly old fox, who only hid in the distance, using invisible wind blades to sneak attack his Night Wing Demon.

Once he landed, it would be his doomsday.

On the ground, three violent summoned beasts, like three strong men, were watching menacingly.
