Chapter 1537: The Will to Kill

Chapter 1537: Chapter 1537: The Will to Kill

Everyone was extremely surprised, revealing incredulous expressions.

After all, the power of Void-Devouring Tiger was witnessed by all, especially its strength, which ranked highly among them.

In terms of raw strength alone, even Yang Yan sometimes felt inferior.

After all, it possessed the bloodline of a Primordial Beast, so its physical power naturally couldn’t be compared to that of humans.

In the end, it could only howl to the sky, reverting to its tiger form, reluctantly choosing to give up.

Ao Tian saw this and laughed, mocking the Void-Devouring Tiger with some disdain: "Fool, there must be a mechanism here. How can brute force push it? You need to use this..."

As Ao Tian spoke, he pointed at his head.

After speaking, he walked straight to the Wheel of the World, beginning to search carefully, seemingly observing the mechanism he mentioned.

However, after circling around, his proud smile gradually froze, replaced by a worried look.

He even used his Spiritual Sense to explore, but still found nothing.

It was a very complete bronze artifact, seamless and without the slightest flaw.

Fu Xi also felt somewhat helpless.

As he had never been to the Ancient Battlefield, his understanding of the Wheel of the World was limited to knowing it was a key, and nothing more.

Yang Yan stared at the Wheel of the World, lost in thought.

He murmured:

"Wheel of the World, world, world..."

Suddenly, his eyes widened as if he comprehended something and he exclaimed:

"I know! I know!"

Everyone looked at Yang Yan in confusion, noticing the confident smile spreading across his face.

Strikes of Sword Qi appeared in the Void, dismantling all the Spiritual Power storms that aimed to hit the crowd.

The man with his face covered in green scales spoke in a deep voice: "Who are you? How dare you stop us?"

Yang Yan walked over to the Void-Devouring Tiger and others with a cold expression, took out Earth-level elixirs rich in Spiritual Qi from his storage space and gave them to the Void-Devouring Tiger and others to take, sparing no effort to use his own Spiritual Power to quickly activate the medicinal properties and clear their meridians.

The man saw Yang Yan ignoring him, and a surge of anger rose in his heart.

Swoosh!

An azure-grey blade instantaneously formed, flying towards Yang Yan like lightning.

Yang Yan’s expression remained unchanged, only relaxing when he saw the injuries of the Void-Devouring Tiger and others slowly improving.

Yang Yan grabbed Ao Tian’s severed arm with one hand, aiding the elixir’s effects to reconnect his arm.

With his other hand, he suddenly flicked out, grabbing the incoming Wind Blade out of thin air.

Boom—

A muffled sound resonated as the Wind Blade halted as if crashing against a solid barrier.

Yang Yan’s palm gently exerted power, and black cracks appeared around the Wind Blade, which then shattered into fragments that vanished in space.

After thoroughly restoring Ao Tian’s severed arm, Yang Yan turned to look at the cultivators surrounding them.

The man watched Yang Yan dispel his attack with a casual gesture and immediately had the urge to flee.

But in the next moment, he was completely in despair.

He was horrified to find that the surrounding space seemed like a cage, firmly trapping him in the Void, making it impossible to break free.

Not only him, but the people around him were in the same predicament.

A look of terror appeared on their faces, their bodies trembling.

Yang Yan raised his head, sweeping his gaze over both groups, a cold smile playing on his lips.

This smile seemed demonic and merciless in the eyes of the crowd.

Spiritual Power surged around the crowd, space shattered, creating cracks around them.

In a mere instant, those cracks vanished.

As if a massive invisible hand wiped out all those cracks.

Seeing the fear on everyone’s faces, Yang Yan’s smile grew deeper.

He slowly scanned the crowd, speaking softly: "I don’t care what your purpose is in targeting my brothers for what they have, causing them such harm."

"But, since you injured them, let your lives be the price!"

"You won’t die easily, you will fall into terror and pain, constantly recycling!"

"Until you lose your mind, becoming puppets who only know slaughter, and just right become my Absolute Armament, atoning for the crimes you committed."

As Yang Yan’s voice spread, Evil Qi rich to the point of being tangible enveloped the enemies before him.

In just a moment, those people seemed to have walked through hell.

Their expressions twisted, blood seeping from their bodies, as if enduring immense pain.

They moaned and twisted their bodies furiously but couldn’t break free from the Domain Yang Yan set up, only able to bitterly endure it.

After a moment, one person couldn’t endure the infinite mental torture and chose to self-destruct.

Yang Yan activated the Space Law, forming a rift, swallowing all the blood mist.

Vermilion Bird’s eyes showed a hint of unwillingness as he said to Yang Yan: "Yang Yan, let it go! Let them die quickly! We only suffered some injuries, there’s no need to torture them like this."

Yang Yan’s eyes flickered with a blood-red light, gazing at Vermilion Bird and the others expressionlessly.

His voice now colder, like a frigid machine.

"This world is cruel, survival of the fittest. If you show mercy to your enemies, one day, they will reappear with sharp fangs to tear you apart."

"I’m not a Saint, I am only cruel to my enemies for them to fear me, dread me. Not dare to harm you, not even entertain such thoughts."

"But if I choose to spare them, they will surely hold onto luck, potentially returning to cause significant trouble. Hence the more painful their deaths, the better it can warn others with similar thoughts!"

Ao Tian saw the madness in Yang Yan’s eyes and couldn’t help expressing his worry: "Moonlight, are you okay? You seem a bit strange..."

Upon hearing Ao Tian’s voice, the madness in Yang Yan’s eyes faded.

He slowly turned and looked at the now healed Ao Tian, smiling lightly and waving his hand: "I’m fine, don’t worry! I won’t have any problems."

Though Yang Yan spoke indifferently, he was deeply shocked internally.

Never expected the presence of an unclear force infiltrating his spirit, unknowingly provoking his killing intent.

Fortunately, he had Wish Power protecting him and had some understanding of the Slaughter Rule, otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Given his current power, if blinded by this killing aura, likely very few could stop him.

Even if Fu Xi and the others intervened, the situation wouldn’t have been much better.

At least they wouldn’t be able to ensure their safety while restoring his reason.
