Chapter 200 - Defeated with One Spear

Chen Fan moved at an incredible speed, resembling a ghostly shadow flickering among the tall buildings of the Loulan Ancient Imperial City. Even someone with a high cultivation would think they were seeing things.

The city’s towering buildings were either crafted from stone or clay-based ceramic, providing exceptional durability.

Some buildings and towers had even been built with molten iron mixed with all kinds of strange metals, giving them a stately and sacred appearance.

Heavy snow fell from the sky, dressing these tall buildings in a coat of silver.

Cloaked in polar bear fur, Chen Fan blended seamlessly with the snow, making it difficult for anyone to notice him.

He was concealing his aura, so even experts at the third level couldn’t sense him. As he moved, it seemed like he had transformed into snow, quickly infiltrating the ancient city.

The ancient city was very huge. The deeper he went, the fewer blood-sucking bandits there were, but every one of them was an elite.

Eventually, Chen Fan discovered magnificent buildings with blood pools in the heart of the ancient city. Fresh blood churned within, and a Qi Grandmaster bandit sat beside each pool, absorbing the potent blood qi.

Wisps of crimson qi drifted from the blood pool and entered these blood sucking bandits, making the layer of blood qi around even richer and strengthening their auras.

These Qi Grandmaster bandits were using the energy of the blood pool as support to try breaking through to the Yuanfu realm.

However, none of these people discovered Chen Fan.

Swish!

He silently landed on a building that was nine stories high.

He could tell that this building was originally a restaurant, built luxuriously. The pillars were iron, with their exterior wrapped in gold foil, glimmering with a golden light and giving off an air of nobility.

However, they were now covered in blood stains. A large, deep pit brimming with boiling fresh blood was in the middle of the tall building.

Within the pit stood a thirty-foot radius fresh blood altar, where a blood-sucking bandit cultivated. Every time he breathed, the blood in the pool transformed into crimson runes that the bandit absorbed.

Strands of solidified blood resembling steel needles and fur grew on the bandit's face, body, and arms, making him look like a demonic, red-furred jiangshi.

This bandit’s cultivation was exceptionally powerful—the peak of the third level. The source of this content nov(el)bi((n))

Chen Fan stared at this blood-sucking bandit.

Loulan Ancient Imperial City was huge and full of massive buildings that blocked the horizon. No one could possibly find out where the treasures were hidden.

Chen Fan didn’t dare to go searching too openly, either. He was well aware that a powerful figure like Xue Chongtian was around.

His current objective was to capture a core blood-sucking bandit and force the location of the hidden treasures out of them, then stealthily sneak in and plunder all the treasures, making a fortune.

“Who are you?”

The red-haired bandit looked coldly at Chen Fan, a light flickering in his eyes.

“Let’s not talk about that first. Speak, where are the treasures hidden?” Chen Fan asked again.

“We transported it back to Blood Demon Cave long ago. Go find it at the Blood Demon Cave if you want it.”

The red-haired, blood-sucking bandit laughed out loud before suddenly unleashing a palm strike. A big palm seal shot out, threatening to suppress and kill Chen Fan.

However, Chen Fan’s aura surged and made the blood-colored palm seal disintegrate.

“Looks like you want to do things the hard way. Since you won't cooperate when I'm asking politely, I'll have to capture you and employ various methods to extract the information. Do you take me for a fool? Could you sustain such a massive bandit army in this ancient city without the treasures?”

Chen Fan made his move as soon as he finished speaking. He promptly grabbed at the air, condensing the Heaven Piercing Spear immediately.

The spear stabbed out at the air, like a grim reaper descending onto the world to harvest lives.

“Blood Shadow Divine Shield!”

The blood-sucking bandit’s cultivation erupted. The boiling blood qi around him stirred and transformed into a shield with crimson runes, flickering and condensing into a blood-colored ghost head. The ghost head opened its mouth and shot an extremely corrosive, blood-colored flame.

Alas, Chen Fan’s Heaven Piercing Spear pierced through this Blood Shadow Divine Shield like lightning. It even destroyed the red-haired, blood-sucking bandit’s protective primeval force and picked him off the ground.

Then, Chen Fan condensed six arms around him. The primeval force arms caught the red-haired bandit in mid-air and lifted him.

With a single move, this peak-stage, third-level Yuanfu realm bandit was heavily injured and captured.
