Time rewinds to a few minutes ago.
Within Marquis Harden's domain, Xu Fan escaped from that old castle, evading a strike powerful enough to shred countless Vajra Realm Peak experts. He couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
The bet of three moves has been fulfilled. In those three moves, the first one Xu Fan endured with his own body; in the second, he used the Jade Silkworm for a surprise attack; and in the third, he relied on his understanding of the domain, suddenly freeing himself from the restraints and using the speed advantage of the Dragon Elephant Art to escape the attack range.
If there had been any mistake in these moves, Xu Fan would have met with utter obliteration! It was a true gamble with life! Fortunately, Xu Fan won the bet!
However, just as a hint of a smile appeared on Xu Fan's face as he stood gasping outside the castle, it quickly froze.
Though the three moves had passed, the domain still wasn't dispelled!
A sense of foreboding had already risen in Xu Fan's heart. Obviously, Marquis Harden's character wasn't trustworthy, but Xu Fan had absolute faith in the attitude of the old undead and others.
With the old undead and others watching intently from outside, along with cultivators from all over the world surrounding the area, would Marquis Harden really dare to renege on his promise?
As bats and werewolves rushed out from the castle, eyes glowing red and pouncing directly at him, Xu Fan's heart sank to the bottom.
He wasn't worried about himself; Xu Fan knew clearly that if Marquis Harden dared to attack him so flagrantly, something must have happened outside!
The old undead and others might be in danger!
However, at this moment, Xu Fan couldn't afford to worry about the people outside the domain. Facing a group of Zhiwei Realm-level bat werewolves, he was like a clay Buddha crossing a river, unable to protect himself!
Without any hesitation, Xu Fan turned and desperately ran in the opposite direction, the Dragon Elephant Art operating at full power, his speed nearly becoming a black shadow!
A group of Zhiwei Realm bat werewolves clung tenaciously to Xu Fan's trail, spiritual power surging around them like a vast ocean.
Fortunately, at this moment, Marquis Harden was already entangled with the old undead, unable to divert much attention to controlling the domain, allowing Xu Fan to leave the Zhiwei Realm-level bat werewolves behind like a lone rider galloping ahead.
The domain of a Zhiwei Realm expert is markedly different from that released by a Vajra Realm Peak expert - most notably in its intricacy and boundlessness.
Even combined, Nash the Baron and Huang Quan Huang Quan could only release a domain with a radius of just about one hundred meters, a range visible at a glance. But within Marquis Harden's domain, Xu Fan stood atop a skyscraper, gazing far into the distance, unable to see an end to the world at all.
Where Xu Fan currently was appeared to be a city, almost an exact replica of Luocheng, but in this Luocheng, there were buildings, cars, and various facilities, yet not a single life was seen, except for the bat werewolves swarming in from all directions.
These bat werewolves seemed able to pinpoint Xu Fan's direction and position, taking no detours as they came directly in pursuit.
Overhead, the sky had turned into swirling vortices, then began pouring down torrential blood rain.
This blood rain, like acid, bore a strong corrosive effect, forcing Xu Fan to uphold a spiritual shield.
In such a place, hiding inside buildings would be tantamount to awaiting doom; facing a group of Zhiwei Realm bat werewolves, Xu Fan had no possibility of escaping alive in a small space.
The bat werewolves surrounded from all sides, seemingly following a specific pattern, orderly and systematically closing in on and besieging Xu Fan.
The torrential blood rain pelted Xu Fan's Shield of Light with hissing sounds.
The spiritual power within Xu Fan was almost depleted, and without the slightest hesitation, he leapt up and charged in one direction to break out.
In fact, any direction was nearly the same for Xu Fan; in every direction, the configuration of bat werewolves was identical. They could trace Xu Fan just like a game of cat and mouse, tightening the net until the game was over.
In the blood rain, with spiritual shield upheld, Xu Fan was like a streak of light, fiercely stamping a building's rooftop, and in midair, unleashed a dragon and an elephant to crash into a bat.
Xu Fan's strength was essentially insignificant against a bat of Zhiwei Realm power. Though these bats seemed to lack intelligence, their power was extremely formidable.
But Xu Fan wasn't directly colliding with the bats head-on; instead, he cleverly adjusted strength and direction in midair.
Boom!
The collision sent Xu Fan spiraling like a cut kite, plummeting diagonally down to where a building conveniently stood. Before reaching the ground, he landed on the structure side, twisting to evade a werewolf's claws and spitting blood, without time to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, dashed forward at full speed.
However, this maneuver only evaded one siege attempt, as the bat werewolves quickly locked onto Xu Fan's every move again, soon forming a new encirclement that was even tighter.
Repeating the tactic, after exchanging a punch with a bat, Xu Fan used the force to escape the encirclement, but his actions were slower by a fraction, leading to a scratch from the air movement stirred by a werewolf's claws.
The encirclement became even smaller.
What filled Xu Fan with even greater despair was the sight of blood-red clouds overhead crowding together with a rumbling roar, as if about to unleash lightning.
Without disappointing him, countless blood-colored lightning bolts shot downward, like having precise positions, striking indiscriminately within a kilometer around Xu Fan.
The aura carried by each bolt of lightning, even from a distance, still filled Xu Fan with alarm.
The energy within each strike was enough to destroy countless Vajra Realm Peak experts!
And above, there wasn't just a thousand of such bolts?
At this moment, Xu Fan's spiritual power was nearly depleted, his external Shield of Light trembled precariously, then shattered with a boom.
Despair flooded Xu Fan's heart for the first time, engulfing him almost savagely.
At the Entering Dao Realm Peak, standing before a true Zhiwei Realm expert, was utterly powerless like an ant!
Entering Dao Realm cultivators were still at the level of mere martial abilities, and even Vajra Realm ones merely refined their bodies once. But the Zhiwei Realm created worlds!
And in such a world, Zhiwei Realm experts were like gods!
How could one fight this?
Amidst dense lightning that crashed down on Xu Fan, striking him directly, yet causing no harm.
Neither pain nor itch.
Slightly puzzled, Xu Fan opened his eyes to find the whole world shattering violently.
