The Bloodswallow Clan's revival begins with a sky-reddening phenomenon and a ground-shaking tremor. It's revealed that this is not a Divine Emperor's tomb but the ancestral land of the Bloodswallow Clan, a race nearly annihilated in the Ancient Era. As the clan members emerge from the ground, Ye Chenfeng seizes the opportunity, swiftly killing the first ten to obtain the necessary blood, and then retreats with the corpses.
Ye Chenfeng swiftly dealt with the ten peak Level Seven Heavenly God Realm cultivators from the Bloodswallow Clan. He didn't even have a moment to employ "Boundless Oceans" on the other eight deceased members of the Bloodswallow Clan. Deploying "Boundless Oceans" requires a significant duration, and at such a critical juncture, if he were to perform it, the remaining Bloodswallow Clan members might fully acclimate to their released forms, leading to an assault from all of them. He entrusted two corpses of the Bloodswallow Clan members to Tan Yuanwu, alongside him. Absorbing the essence from these two corpses was not an option, as such an act would cause them to wither, and the blood intended for aid would consequently dissipate. Witnessing Ye Chenfeng's intervention, Hua Wanchuan and the others snapped out of their stupor, intending to attack the Bloodswallow Clan members who had not yet fully adapted to their bodies, but it proved too late. The remaining forty-odd members of the Bloodswallow Clan suddenly unleashed torrents of blood-red spiritual energy. These individuals had completely adjusted to their bodies. They began contorting their necks and limbs, casting gloomy and somber glances at their fallen kinsmen's corpses, their murderous intent fixed upon Ye Chenfeng. At the heart of the Bloodswallow Clan members' encirclement stood their leader, Tun Tian. Blood could be clearly seen coursing within his physique, and the radiating blood-red spiritual energy was immensely dense, projecting waves of pressure in every direction. Although Tun Tian's power had waned considerably due to the prolonged period of confinement, he still possessed latent strength equivalent to the Early Divine Venerate Realm. His piercing gaze locked onto Ye Chenfeng, brimming with cold fury. The brief acclimatization period required after the seal's removal had completely blindsided him. Apart from Tun Tian, who resided in the Early Divine Venerate Realm, all others ranged from the Initial to the Peak Divine King Realm. This meant that even Hua Wanchuan and his companions combined were no match for a single individual like Tun Tian, let alone such a formidable assembly of Divine King Realm powerhouses. Ye Chenfeng understood that confronting Tun Tian alone was an insurmountable task. Aspiring to overpower an Early Divine Venerate Realm expert with his own Peak Level Six Heavenly God Realm cultivation was sheer folly; the chasm between the Heavenly God Realm and the Divine Venerate Realm was simply too vast. Ye Chenfeng cast a glance at Tan Yuanwu beside him. Instead of vocalizing his thoughts, he transmitted them directly to Tan Yuanwu: "Should an opportunity arise later, take the two Bloodswallow Clan corpses and depart immediately. I shall now impart the method to breach the formation at the valley's entrance." After imprinting the formation-breaking technique into Tan Yuanwu's consciousness, Tan Yuanwu sent a mental reply: "Chenfeng, what do you intend by this? If you cannot escape this place alive, can we truly manage on our own? If we are fated to perish, then let us face it together!" Ye Chenfeng ceased transmitting further messages, acknowledging the validity of Tan Yuanwu's perspective. He redirected his focus back to Tun Tian and the assembled Bloodswallow Clan members. "Clan Leader, this brat deserves a thousand deaths! How dare he slaughter our Bloodswallow Clan members! We must dismember him; we cannot permit any other race to subjugate our clan this time!" "Precisely, Clan Leader! This brat merely possesses Peak Level Six Heavenly God Realm strength. In the Ancient Era, someone of his caliber wouldn't even be worthy of carrying our footwear." ... Previously, only Tun Tian, as the Clan Leader, could perceive the shifts within this ancestral territory; the other clan members were naturally unaware of Ye Chenfeng's peculiar attributes. Tun Tian gestured with his hand, stating, "There's no need for haste; this brat still holds value for us. As for the others, I concur that six of them may be slain, but the remainder shall be kept alive. As we undergo revival, the Bloodswallow Clan requires sustenance from fresh blood; only living blood retains its utmost vitality." Upon hearing Tun Tian's declaration, the other Bloodswallow Clan members grew visibly eager. Among them, six individuals at the Mid Divine King Realm stepped forward, their forms blurring as they advanced towards Hua Wanchuan and his companions. Observing this development, Hua Wanchuan and Luo Qianhai rapidly retreated. Aside from Hua Wanchuan and his group, the ancestral figures from Xiao Yao Palace, the Heavenly Sword Sect, and the Jins, along with six other sect powerhouses at the Divine King Realm, were caught entirely off guard. These six other sect ancestors found themselves facing the Bloodswallow Clan members without preparation, forced into a confrontation. The cultivation levels of these six other sect ancestors spanned from the Initial to the Late Divine King Realm. The six Bloodswallow Clan members, positioned at the Mid Divine King Realm, met these six ancestors, demonstrating a clear superiority in strength. Even when confronting ancestors at the Late Divine King Realm, the Bloodswallow Clan contingent maintained an advantageous position in combat prowess.
The members of the Bloodswallow Clan had their hands clamped onto the bodies of the six ancestors, causing the blood beneath their pale skin to surge. In mere moments, the blood within these six ancestors was completely siphoned, flowing into the forms of the six Bloodswallow Clan members.
While Hua Wanchuan, Luo Qianhai, and the others from Xiao Yao Palace were spared thanks to these other sect ancestors acting as unwilling sacrifices, witnessing such a tragic demise of Divine King Realm ancestors from different sects left their faces ashen.
The Bloodswallow Clan Leader, Tun Tian, gestured, and the six blood-consuming members of his clan retreated behind him. Tun Tian then addressed Ye Chenfeng: "We finally meet. I never anticipated you would survive until our clan's complete restoration."
Hearing Tun Tian's pronouncement, Ye Chenfeng's body grew rigid. Even with all his might, he knew he was no match for Tun Tian. Was he truly destined to perish here?
As Ye Chenfeng's thoughts swirled, Old White Wu Fengxian and Old Black Jiang Yuntian let out small exclamations. Old White Wu Fengxian then spoke, "Could the rumors be true? Young one, perhaps you still have a chance at survival."
Ye Chenfeng faltered for a moment, questioning internally, "Old White, what do you mean?"
Before Old White could reply, Old Black Jiang Yuntian quickly interjected, "Kid, it's probable that a hidden 'Array of Ten Deaths Without Life' exists in this world. If it can be activated, there might be a way to save you."
