"You can’t even protect yourself, yet you’re thinking about those two little girls!" Charlotte sneered, referring to the Xiao sisters as little girls—who knew how old she really was.
With that, Charlotte waved her bleeding hand, and a series of blood pearls flew out, spilling onto the ground at her feet. The blood-colored patterns on the ground suddenly flickered, then froze, and the black mist that erged seed to co alive, swirling around.
"Brother Tian, stop her quickly, she’s preparing a large-scale spell, letting her complete it would be disastrous," Rossi said anxiously, a rare occurrence.
"It’s useless, she can fly, I can’t even touch her," Lin Tian said helplessly.
Sure enough, Charlotte suddenly transford into a bat and flew into the sky. After a while, her chanting voice ca from above.
"Ancient evil spirit, open the gate of hell, destroy everything..."
At this mont, the skeletons summoned by Onmyoji Guizhong Erlang were immobile. It was unclear whether they were being suppressed or if they were also frightened.
Lin Tian didn’t care about any of that, he rushed to the edge of the barrier and forcefully punched it. He wanted to break the barrier to go out and find the young Miss and Xiao Manxuan, because who knew what would happen next.
Compared to the sharpness of the young Miss’s Sword Qi, Lin Tian’s strength was fierce and powerful. The massive force slamd into the blood-colored barrier, causing it to ripple violently, but that was all.
Even with enhanced strength, Lin Tian’s attacks still couldn’t break through the barrier. When he initially broke through the prison barrier, it was due to a rare chance of luck from within; compared to Xu Feibai rely stomping to destroy a barrier, the difference was vast.
"Don’t waste your energy, once my spell is completed, the entire ancient battlefield will provide with endless support, unless you can destroy the entire ancient battlefield. Do you think I spent more than half a month here wasting ti?"
"Since you won’t leave, you’ll stay here forever just like the Japanese!" At so point, Charlotte had transford back into human form. She stood atop a dilapidated building, looking down coldly at Lin Tian.
As soon as she finished speaking, tremors ca from underground, and then the soil rolled over as Skull n crawled out of the ground. Just like those summoned by Guizhong Erlang’s Yin Yang Technique, they were skeletons, but clearly different.
Guizhong Erlang’s were rely skeletons, yet the newly erged skeletons were shrouded in black mist, wearing armor—even though a bit tattered—and wielding rusted swords instead of empty hands.
Just by design, Charlotte’s summoned skeletons were far stronger than Guizhong Erlang’s. One was ard, the other not; ard ones beca Skeleton Soldiers. More impressively, more and more new skeletons appeared, even outside the barrier, stretching to the end of the blood-colored formation.
At a glance, nearly half of the ancient battlefield was covered, the number of Skeleton Soldiers reaching thousands, making Guizhong Erlang’s few hundred seem pitiful as they were swallowed by the sea of Skeleton Soldiers.
"Wow, she really opened the gate of hell; can these Skeleton Soldiers fight?" Lin Tian exclaid, feeling disadvantaged just from the scene.
As if in response to Lin Tian, the mont the Skeleton Soldiers erged, they imdiately targeted the unard skeletons, rushing forward. With sword slashes and shield smashes, in the blink of an eye Guizhong Erlang’s pride was torn to pieces.
The savage attack of the Skeleton Soldiers left Lin Tian speechless. It seed like power from the ancient tis, tearing through all foes before them.
Lin Tian glanced at Rossi and himself; though they were tall, they were nowhere near enough to withstand the wave-like offensive of the Skeleton Soldiers with their slight builds.
On the rooftop, Charlotte let out another howl, causing the Skeleton Soldiers to stir and start searching for their next target. From a corner of the abandoned factory ca a sudden scream, and then a figure zipped out as if on fire.
The figure ran toward Lin Tian and his companion, and Lin Tian recognized it as the arrogant Guizhong Erlang. But at this mont, his appearance was a ss, being chased desperately by the Skeleton Soldiers, his clothes torn.
His appearance also attracted a large group of Skeleton Soldiers, causing Lin Tian to want to curse. Guizhong Erlang noticed Lin Tian’s displeased expression and quickly said, "Stay calm, you two, don’t fight, if we don’t join forces, that woman will rip us to pieces."
Though the Skeleton Soldiers were powerful, their movent speed was slower than that of normal humans, so Guizhong Erlang still had a chance to catch his breath and speak.
Lin Tian glanced at him and sneered, "Weren’t you just full of yourself, so arrogant? You even looked down on your own kin, and now you’re scared."
Guizhong Erlang was a bit embarrassed, though his skeletal face didn’t show much except for his eyes; embarrassnt was hard to see. Lacking confidence, he said, "Who knew that woman was so formidable, and she even set up a spell array in advance. Even if I had three heads and six arms, I couldn’t defeat her."
"Answer my questions and I’ll consider your proposal," Lin Tian replied calmly.
"Guizhong Yilang is my half-brother. I was hired to seize the elixir recipe. The organization that hired is Japan’s Sun Shadow Association, and those ninjas were sent to assist . They promised to give the crystal skull after the job was done. The crystal skull is a magic artifact used by Secret Masters. That’s all I can answer. Do you have any other questions?"
Lin Tian hadn’t even asked anything, yet Guizhong Erlang fired off answers to every potential question, leaving Lin Tian stunned.
Looking at this so-called noble Onmyoji, Lin Tian felt that compared to his aloof brother, this Erlang seed a bit silly or maybe a fool.
"Uh, well, I have nothing to ask now; you’ve answered it all. What else do you want to ask?" Lin Tian said, almost embarrassed.
Guizhong Erlang glanced back at the approaching Skeleton Soldiers, sowhat anxiously asking, "Then, do you agree to join forces with us?"
"Give a reason to join forces." Lin Tian replied with indifference.
"If we don’t join forces, we’ll both die, and it’ll be an ugly death, torn to pieces," Guizhong Erlang responded.
Lin Tian shook his head, saying, "You’re the one who’s dood, I’m not so easily killed."
Guizhong Erlang, anxious as an ant on a hot pan, after a few seconds of contemplation, added, "We’re both Asians, this woman is bullying us Asians, shouldn’t we join forces to take her down?"
"Hmm, that argunt seems sowhat valid," Lin Tian nodded. Guizhong Erlang was pleased, but a strange glint flashed in his eyes.
Lin Tian had long been aware of his change in expression; this couldn’t fool him. Guizhong Erlang’s so-called alliance was rely to use him as a scapegoat, a sacrificial pawn.
