The Most Powerful Bodyguard

Chapter 1443: Chapter 1443: The Abandoned Great Power’s Disciple Grounds

According to Fu Xi’s instructions, Yang Yan realized that Ao Tian was still Ao Tian, only with the blood of a Demon God implanted into his veins.

Fu Xi planned to turn the tables, leaving behind a backup for the great calamity of heaven and earth in the future.

Because even directly destroying Ao Tian would actually be of no consequence.

The Demon God’s blood left behind was more than one drop; losing one Ao Tian would not affect the overall situation.

Conversely, if used well, it might become the key to breaking the stalemate.

Moreover, Ao Tian himself did not know what exactly had happened, and Yang Yan was truly unable to harm his own brother.

Yang Yan followed the coordinates given by Ao Tian and arrived at the crack where Zhou Hanyun and the others had disappeared.

He activated his Spiritual Sense to perceive, and couldn’t help but knit his brows in frustration.

There were extremely powerful Array fluctuations around the crack, yet even Yang Yan couldn’t discern the principles of the Array.

Yang Yan suddenly recalled Ao Tian’s words, that this Array would not trigger attacks on those at or below the early stage of Core Formation and could pass through...

A determined gleam suddenly flashed in Yang Yan’s eyes, and he immediately sealed his cultivation to the early Golden Core stage and flew into the crack.

He only felt the space shift, and suddenly sensed something soft beneath his feet.

His expression changed, and Yang Yan quickly flew upward.

Roar—

Amidst a heart-stopping roar, a gaping maw shot upward from below, snapping ferociously.

Fortunately, with his rich experience, Yang Yan forcibly shifted sideways, narrowly avoiding this terrifying ambush.

This place turned out to be a swamp...

Yang Yan flew up high, looking down at the ground below.

Below was a vast swamp, stretching beyond what the eye could see.

Directly beneath him, a massive creature covered in mud was raising its huge body, staring at Yang Yan.

Its eyes were full of ferocity, and it began crawling out of the jungle, gradually revealing its lizard-like body.

Temporarily posing no threat to him, Yang Yan naturally had no desire to pay it heed.

He quickly released his Spiritual Sense, carefully sensing his surroundings.

Unfortunately, he couldn’t detect any traces of Zhou Hanyun and the others.

Yang Yan could not help but feel a touch of anxiety.

However, as his extending Spiritual Sense continued to stretch, he finally made a discovery.

In this space, there was an Array that would transport individuals to different places based on the level of their cultivation!

Yang Yan’s Spiritual Sense probed into the Array, and he suddenly received a piece of information, causing joy to flash in his heart.

He murmured to himself, "Who would’ve thought this place was once the Secret Realm of recruitment for a Great Power, but it is now abandoned. In that case, they might still have a chance to survive..."

Roar!

Suddenly, this swamp creature resembling a lizard with an even wider mouth let out a roar, its enormous body suddenly soared into the sky, slithering through the Void.

"Annihilate!"

A dazzling sword light flashed past, slicing through the monster’s body.

Swoosh!

The monster’s body split in two, its vitality severed, blood splattering.

Rumble!

The massive body crashed into the swamp below, splattering a shower of mud.

Military Technique—Radiant Light.

Even with his cultivation suppressed, once this Celestial-level Cultivation Technique was executed, it never missed its target.

In no time at all, the swamp beast lay dead in a pool of blood, its flesh rapidly shriveling, a faint black aura subtly emanating.

Only then did Yang Yan realize that this thin Demonic Qi was previously masked by the swamp’s aura, causing him to overlook it.

The presence of demonic creatures here far exceeded his expectations over the past two years.

His heart grew ever more vigilant.

Though feeling the presence of many hidden beast auras beneath him, and having already learned from prior experience, Yang Yan indeed detected faint Demonic Qi in them, but his mind was entirely occupied with the safety of Zhou Hanyun and the others, leaving him disinclined to take heed.

At this moment, he had only one thought, to quickly find Zhou Hanyun and the others, and ensure their safe departure.

With a shift of his mind, Yang Yan vanished into thin air, instantly transforming into a streak of light, swiftly flying towards the distance.

And just as he flashed away, another shadow launched upwards from beneath, snapping at the afterimage left by his swift movement.

...

Due to the restriction on his cultivation, his Spiritual Sense could not search further, extending to a maximum of only twenty miles.

Fortunately, Yang Yan was able to fly in the sky, allowing his vision to finally pierce the thin mist over the swamp to see further distances.

This trial ground, with its outermost boundary being an enormous swamp.

Upon entering, Yang Yan discovered that the suppression on cultivation inside was almost non-existent.

Although he didn’t want to directly unleash his full cultivation, attracting unnecessary attention, with the Flawless Divine Body’s boost, even with his cultivation suppressed to the early Golden Core stage, maintaining this sky-flying ability was not at all difficult for him.

Yet, this swamp area was exceedingly vast, making navigation difficult for Yang Yan.

He could only randomly choose a direction, maintaining his highest speed.

Moments later, at the edge of the swamp, Yang Yan discovered the remains of scattered bones on a barren land.

These bones were scattered among the exposed rocks, bearing a burnt appearance, exuding a faint sulfurous scent of burning.

Though he searched back and forth around the bones with his Spiritual Sense several times, he found no sign of any powerful creature’s presence.

Nevertheless, Yang Yan didn’t dare to relax for a moment, feeling an eerie sense, as if danger was brewing.

So, he composed himself once more, diligently probing the vicinity with his Spiritual Sense, yet still uncovered nothing.

Hesitating slightly, Yang Yan gritted his teeth and flew downward.

Yet his feet remained off the ground, hovering in midair, cautiously approaching to inspect the state of the dead remains.

Throughout, he didn’t touch the remains, at most using his Spiritual Sense to probe a little.

He quickly discovered that the flesh on these remains seemed gnawed by some ant-like creatures, with burn marks present.

Suddenly, Yang Yan’s brow arched, his nose twitching slightly before letting out a cold laugh.

He then waved his right hand, conjuring a gust of wind that slammed into the swampy mud, all the while flying upwards into higher skies.

Whoosh!

Immediately, Flames erupted, and amidst the brilliance, countless crimson sparks burst forth.

These sparks, upon contact with air, instantly blazed up fiercely again.

In an instant, the air filled with that overwhelming burnt aroma.

The area just struck by his force was quickly engulfed by the crimson flames.

From within the flames came the persistent sound of metal grinding, as swarms of egg-sized, fire-immersed insects rose to engulf the sky, swarming towards Yang Yan.

With a fierce look in his eyes, Yang Yan hurriedly activated the Immortal Power within himself, forming a barrier around him, enveloping his entire being.

Crackle!

All of the rapidly advancing insects were blocked by the Immortal Power, dropping to the ground like raindrops.

They were enveloped in ever-growing flames, rapidly burning themselves up in the process.

Only then did Yang Yan see clearly, they were ants with wings, their bodies radiating crimson flames?
