Chen Fan's gaze was icy.
These fellows were all going to die and still didn't know how to resist.
He could make a move now, but he wouldn't protect them forever.
He had only intervened for these people, who would want subordinates who preferred to lie flat and do nothing.
"Hmph."
Chen Fan was extremely dissatisfied.
Everyone was like this, not a single one worth mentioning.
At this moment, the middle-aged man stood up.
He was the one who had brought Chen Fan into Tiandang Mountain.
He was also somewhat excited.
He hadn't expected that this young man he had casually brought back would be so powerful.
He was truly f***ing powerful.
Although not comparable to the Mountain Master, he was still very young based on his appearance.
"Everyone."
The middle-aged man's voice echoed through Tiandang Mountain: "Attack immediately. This is your only chance to survive.
Everyone, don't even think of running. With your strength, you won't be able to escape."
The outside was fraught with peril. Only beings like the Mountain Master could survive out there.
In the Imperial Palace, with the World-Destroying Locusts sweeping through, there were very few safe places left.
They had to save themselves.
"Kill."
The middle-aged man attacked directly.
Following Chen Fan, he charged out of the grand formation.
After all, not everyone was willing to wait for death. The main thing was that they lacked a central figure.
Chen Fan's appearance, and the middle-aged man's move, immediately ignited their determination to survive.
"Attack."
"He's right. Even if we die, we can't die so disgracefully."
"Damn it, let's go all out..."
"..."
Their fighting spirit was roused, and the enraged crowd drew their weapons, ready to charge out.
"Don't come out."
It was Chen Fan who spoke: "You all continue to operate the grand formation and protect Tiandang Mountain. I'll handle the outside."
These people would only die if they came out.
Their abilities were mediocre; it was better to rebuild the grand formation.
The middle-aged man followed behind Chen Fan and roared loudly: "Old Eight, Dong Huo, immediately take people and rebuild the grand formation."
"Yes."
Old Eight and Dong Huo were also famous experts of Tiandang Mountain.
The two quickly led their people away, and soon...
Boom.
The great cauldron reappeared.
With each tremor, it shattered the charging World-Destroying Locusts into dust.
"Humph."
At the same time, the Golden Silk Cicada Robe glowed, working with the great cauldron to resist the devouring of the World-Destroying Locusts.
"Clang."
Chen Fan charged and killed in the front.
His speed was extremely fast. With a single sword strike, countless corpses fell.
"It won't work."
Behind him, the middle-aged man caught up.
He said anxiously, "These World-Destroying Locusts have a King with them. They won't retreat until Tiandang Mountain is destroyed."
"What needs to be done?"
This was Chen Fan's first time encountering such a creature, and he didn't know what exactly needed to be done.
"To catch the thief, first catch the king."
The middle-aged man's expression was solemn: "The locust king fears death. As long as it is injured, it will immediately flee."
Chen Fan looked at him but didn't rush to attack: "What's your name?" Da Feng Novel Network
"Xi Qiu."
"If I help drive away the World-Destroying Locusts, what will I get?"
It was time to discuss benefits.
In this world, there was never any reward without reason.
Especially for strangers?
Hearing him say this, Xi Qiu actually breathed a sigh of relief.
It was good that he had a demand.
If he had no desires, it would have made him worried. He said directly, "Tiandang Mountain will submit."
He didn't mention a specific person; he spoke of Tiandang Mountain itself.
"Mountain Master, no..."
He couldn't be called Mountain Master now. A hint of hatred flashed in Xi Qiu's eyes: "Qi Mu abandoned Tiandang Mountain. Tiandang Mountain will no longer recognize him as its Mountain Master.
As you saw just now, when he left, he took his own people with him."
Chen Fan smiled: "That sounds pretty good."
Then...
"Gravity."
The gravity domain appeared.
The range of the gravity domain extended infinitely.
The World-Destroying Locusts fell from the sky like dumplings, their fist-sized bodies being crushed by the pressure.
"Humph."
At the same time, above Chen Fan's head, a celestial crown appeared: "Seal."
The power of the celestial crown, time stopped.
Time seemed to pause at this moment.
"Kill."
Chen Fan's figure had already disappeared from his original position.
His attack was extremely fast.
When he reappeared, he was in front of the scarlet locust.
Sword light, dazzling.
It illuminated the locust king's pupils.
A trace of terror appeared in the locust king's pupils. It struggled violently, roaring repeatedly, calling for its subjects to come and defend it.
At this moment, time stopped.
It was only a brief instant, less than a tenth of a second.
"Pfft."
The sword light struck the locust king's forehead.
At the same time, the power of the time stop disappeared.
"Ah..."
A piercing scream drilled into Chen Fan's mind.
His mind exploded with a 'bang'.
The shattered spiritual world caused Chen Fan to fall into chaos for a moment.
When his mind recovered, he only saw a figure frantically escaping.
"Humph."
The locust swarm immediately became chaotic.
Without the leadership of the locust king, the swarm turned into headless flies.
They scattered in all directions.
As they fled, the devouring aura continuously dissipated.
At this time, Xi Qiu's eyes lit up, and he quickly said, "Hunt them down immediately."
The people of Tiandang Mountain also understood what they needed to do at this time.
围剿灭世蝗虫 (Combing and encircling the World-Destroying Locusts) was not the first time.
Many people enjoyed this kind of activity, provided that the number of locusts was kept within a certain range.
"Dang."
The great cauldron vibrated again.
The ripples spread, striking down countless locusts.
At the same time, countless people rushed out from Tiandang Mountain.
"Kill!"
"Hunt locusts and gain a chance to survive."
"Hahaha..."
If their despair was at the time of Qi Mu's escape,
now it was excitement.
Hunting the World-Destroying Locusts could bring unexpected rewards.
Chen Fan also felt this.
He had killed many World-Destroying Locusts just now, and in the depths of his being, he felt a trace of destructive energy spreading around him.
This was even more apparent when he injured the locust king.
A wisp of gray airflow appeared at his fingertips.
"What is this?"
"Source of Destruction."
A hint of envy appeared in Xi Qiu's eyes: "The locust represents destruction and devours everything. Locusts contain the Source of Destruction, and therefore..."
Halfway through his sentence, Xi Qiu suddenly stopped.
Looking at Chen Fan, his pupils gradually contracted. The trace of disbelief was completely impossible to hide.
Chen Fan smiled, looking at him with amusement: "What have you thought of?"
"..."
Xi Qiu lowered his head.
"Speak."
Chen Fan's tone became much more serious.
Xi Qiu's heart trembled. He swallowed and then said, "You... you are from the outside?"
"Why do you say that?"
He didn't feel Chen Fan's killing intent.
Xi Qiu breathed a sigh of relief and said, "In the Mad Realm, no one doesn't know the benefits of the World-Destroying Locusts. What you just... said clearly shows you don't know."
"That's right."
Chen Fan readily admitted: "I am from the outside."
Then he added, "Judging by your expression, you seem to really hope I would say that."
Chen Fan found it very easy to read people's expressions.
"Yes."
Xi Qiu nodded affirmatively: "This place is about to be destroyed. If we can't get out, we will be destroyed along with the Mad Realm. Only by leaving is there any hope of survival."
Very good.
Xi Qiu was very honest. He liked honest people.
"If possible, I will lead you out." A few more people wouldn't matter to Chen Fan.
"Bang."
Xi Qiu knelt in the void: "Thank you, Mountain Master..."
