Looking at the familiar cheeks of the Mo Family Ancestor, Duanmu Xun couldn't help but grit his teeth and say, "I didn't expect you to come out of seclusion!"
This was troublesome, as the strength of the Mo Family Ancestor was not inferior to his own, and from the current fluctuations of spiritual power, even stronger!
Today, the Duanmu Clan would likely not escape this calamity!
Hearing this, the Mo Family Ancestor responded indifferently, "After all, today I must take action against your Duanmu Clan. With you as a major variable, if I didn't come out of seclusion, even the united forces of several clans would be no match for you!"
Duanmu Xun clenched his fists tightly, his teeth grinding as he said, "Oh really?"
If the Mo Family Ancestor had not come out of seclusion, he would have been one hundred percent confident in stopping these clans' attacks!
But now... he had less than a one percent chance!
If the former acted to intercept him during the skirmish, relying solely on the Duanmu Clan's elders and disciples to resist the prepared attack of the three great clans would be nothing short of wishful thinking!
Understanding this, Duanmu Shuo and the Duanmu Family Elders' faces had already turned extremely unsightly...
The opposing elders, seeing their expressions, mocked them, "Duanmu Shuo, Duanmu Xun, you certainly didn't expect this, did you? The Duanmu Clan has already become an easy catch in our hands!"
"Just now, weren't you still so confident? How is it? Seeing the Mo Family Ancestor has changed your demeanor, hasn't it? Hahaha!"
"Since that's the case, there's no need for further talk, Patriarch Mo, announce the attack!"
The Mo Family Patriarch, upon hearing these words, nodded and loudly commanded, "All disciples and elders obey, attack!!"
As soon as these words fell, those disciples who were already raring to go behind him, erupted with tremendous spiritual power fluctuations and charged toward the Duanmu Mansion...
Seeing this scene, one of the Duanmu Family Elders also shouted loudly, "All disciples of the Duanmu Clan, fight with all you've got! Even if we are to die, let's take some of them with us!"
At these words, the Duanmu Clan disciples suppressed their fear and bravely faced the attack...
In just a moment, the two groups of disciples from opposing sides clashed fiercely...
Within just a few seconds, the ground was already stained with the crimson color of fresh blood, hellish in its appearance...
The Duanmu Clan was in grave danger!
...
Xu Sheng condensed a longsword with spiritual power to block the incoming Sword Qi, then turned, and with a kick, sent the elder who tried to sneak attack him flying...
He said with an icy tone, "Using sneak attacks when you already outnumber us, you can let go of that title of top clans!"
Meanwhile, Duanmu Lian and Zhou Qingruo each coldly shouted out their techniques, "Heavenly Ranked Superior Martial Technique, Myriad Sword Spirit Medium!"
"Heavenly Ranked Superior Martial Technique, Blood Prison!"
As the words dropped, tremendous spiritual power rapidly poured out of Zhou Qingruo's body, wrapping around the attacking elders. In a matter of seconds, it condensed into a solid form...
Violently transforming into a blood prison tinged with crimson, it forcefully sealed them within...
Simultaneously, Duanmu Lian's martial technique was fully charged, the Sword Qi that could shred everything surged into the blood prison, cutting frantically at everything inside at an astonishing speed...
Instantly, the blood prison filled with the sounds of heart-wrenching screams...
"Ahhhh! My hand! My hand!"
"Get out of the way!! Pfft!! It's broken through my shield, what horrifying penetrative power!"
"My defense is broken! Ahhhhhhh! No! I don't want to die! I don't want to die!"
After the Blood Prison dissipated, most of the Elders inside could be seen clutching their arms and other body parts, clearly having sustained considerable injuries!
Even a few of the Elders, who had not managed to defend in time, were mercilessly sliced into disorganized limbs, flashing an eye-piercing bloody light, simply looking at it sent shivers down one's spine...
Seeing this scene, the other Elders watching from the sidelines involuntarily took a few steps back...
With their gaze firmly fixed on Zhou Qingruo and the other, they wondered aloud, "Damn it! What the hell is going on, why can't we get any advantage even when several major families join hands!"
"They're all Immortal Monarchs too, so why are the two of them so much stronger than us!"
"And that man, his strength is also terrifying beyond belief, even facing the attacks of several Immortal Monarch-level experts by himself with ease!"
"Damn it! If this continues, we'll be the ones sacrificed in the blood sacrifice!"
"Forget about that for now, let's first take out the Duanmu Family Elder in the blood pool behind us!"
After these words slipped out, the Elders from the other families all turned their attention towards the two Daluo Golden Immortal Realm Elders guarding around the Blood Pool!
Immediately, several Elders burst into action, charging toward the Blood Pool with intense murderous intent...
Noticing this, Duanmu Lian exclaimed in shock, "It's a disaster! They've changed their target!"
After repelling an attacking Elder with a single strike, Zhou Qingruo furrowed her brows and said, "It's too late!"
Indeed, the two of them are nothing but burdens, if not for them, there would be no need to be so apprehensive!
Xu Sheng watched the Elders rushing towards the Blood Pool, his dark eyes flickered, and he said in a cold voice, "They are beyond salvation!"
The reason he had sent those two Duanmu Family Elders over there was not without cause!
As his words had just fallen, the entire Blood Pool began to tremble, following which it emitted a burst of dazzling light...
In the blink of an eye, it enveloped all the surrounding Elders!
Vaguely, one could see their bodies suddenly freezing and the blood within them starting to surge, "puh" went the sound as they were forcefully extracted by a strong force...
The Elders' eyes widened, faces showing an expression of disbelief...
A few seconds later, their bodies turned extremely pale and gradually withered into dry husks...
And the fresh blood that was forcefully extracted was instantly poured into the Blood Pool...
However, it only managed to fill it halfway, clearly, this amount of blood was still not enough...
This sinister spectacle sent a chill through the hearts of the Elders from the other families, their lips trembling as they said, "Dead... dead?? This Blood Pool can actually forcibly extract blood???"
"Look, the Elders of the Duanmu Family did not escape either, I'm afraid that even Elder Xu did not notice this!"
"We've actually lost several Elders, damn it!!"
"Everyone be careful, I fear this Blood Pool will forcefully extract blood depending on the number of people getting close, those two Duanmu Family Elders who were near the Blood Pool earlier didn't have any problems!"
Seeing all the Elders around the Blood Pool being drained of blood and dying, Duanmu Lian stared blankly at Xu Sheng and swallowed before saying, "Xu Sheng, what just happened, why did this happen!"
