Why Did You Provoke Him? All His Disciples Have the Potential to Become Emperors!

261: Continue to explore”Damn, a whole kingdom has already vanished??”

Li Haotian’s voice rose several octaves; this was absolutely absurd.

For hundreds of millions of people to disappear for no apparent reason was simply unheard of.

This number of people was likely enough to allow an ordinary alien race member to ascend to a Quasi-Emperor.

If such a bizarre incident had occurred, it absolutely could not be ignored. It had to be investigated until the truth was brought to light, otherwise, it was very likely that a large number of the Human Race would go missing.

This was definitely not something he wanted to see; the Human Race could not just disappear so inexplicably.

They were the guardians of the entire Heavenly Domain and naturally had to protect all of the Human Race, even the Mortals.

”Immediately send people to investigate what exactly is going on. You must find the cause for me; we absolutely cannot let these people vanish in vain.”

”If there is a first time, there will be a second and a third. Our Human Race absolutely cannot stand to be slaughtered at will; we must find the source and eradicate it completely!”

Upon hearing this, Lin Tianxuan nodded, then forcefully stepped forward, his figure vanishing from the spot like a phantom.

Violent spatial fluctuations appeared where he had departed; clearly, he was heading toward the location where Du Xian and the others were currently stationed.

”Grand Elder Lin!”

Su Yao was the first to see Lin Tianxuan and waved excitedly.

Lin Tianxuan nodded at the group, then gently wiped his fingers across his eyes. His pupils instantly turned completely white, resembling those of a dead fish.

The next moment, a beam of light shot from his eyes and entered the eyes of everyone present. They could all see everything that had happened before: after they entered the village, white mist appeared, followed by their disappearance as they were transported to other worlds.

People were decreasing every day, and not just bit by bit; almost half the population vanished at once. Such a terrifying frequency made everyone present feel horrified, yet they still did not understand what exactly had happened.

The people in the village disappeared bit by bit, with new disappearances every day, yet they showed no anxiety. On the contrary, they were very joyful and were even congratulating those who had been ’chosen.’

Finally, when the last person disappeared, some clues were revealed. A strange red light shone in that person’s eyes, and then he lightly stomped on the ground, vanishing into thin air right where he stood.

After the Spell’s effect ended, everyone present wore expressions of deep confusion.

Although this allowed them to see what had happened, no one could find any clues from it.

”I understand now.”

Lin Tianxuan spoke, then walked straight into the village and gently kicked away the dirt below with his foot. Sure enough, a Formation appeared there.

”Damn!”

Zhang Hai and the others were dumbfounded; this Formation was not buried deep underground, but was tightly adjacent to the village, as if it had existed before the village was built.

”This situation is not rare. In my era, there were also cases of sudden disappearances, and after investigation, one would discover a Formation left behind.”

After saying this, Lin Tianxuan gently swept away the surrounding dust, revealing the Formation to everyone. The strange patterns and special symbols on it were clearly not created by the Human Race.

”As expected, this Formation must have been left behind by the alien race. They once attacked this world and successfully invaded.”

”They left Formations in various places. Once a large number of the Human Race appeared here, the Formation would automatically activate and devour them all.”

”Then, it would slowly gather energy and finally open a wormhole, allowing the alien race to travel here. This is a Formation that has been planned for a long time.”

Lin Tianxuan tapped the Formation on the ground. The light emanating from it was constantly strengthening, clearly indicating that more of the Human Race were still being absorbed. It was estimated that before long, this Formation would fully take shape, forming a massive wormhole.

By then, it would not just be one type of alien race passing through; other major races would all be able to enter the Heavenly Domain through here together.

”Then how should we put an end to such things?”

Su Yao voiced the question in everyone’s hearts. Lin Tianxuan revealed a faint smile, then tossed his Long Sword into the sky.

In their stunned eyes, the Long Sword transformed into a massive blade ten thousand feet long and slashed fiercely downward.

A radius of one hundred miles was instantly annihilated by this sword strike.

All the soil and the Formation above disappeared completely under the terrifying threat of this sword strike.

The Formation beneath their feet, which had been flickering with red light, also began to gradually crumble and then dissipated into the heaven and earth, with a large amount of Spiritual Qi releasing from it to feed back into the world.

”This is how it can be solved, but it requires large-scale destruction; otherwise, there is no way to eradicate it completely. These Formations have a certain degree of resilience; even if destroyed by someone, they will continue to reappear.”

”Only by carrying out large-scale destruction like I did can its self-healing ability be reduced to a minimum, eventually leading to its complete destruction.”

After the explanation, everyone nodded in realization. They had not expected that so many dangers were hidden within this world.

Perhaps it was because their Cultivation was too low in the past that they could not come into contact with these things at all, but with the increase in their Cultivation, more difficulties appeared before them.

Only now did they understand how terrifying the situation facing the Human Race was; a single wrong step could very likely lead to the annihilation of the entire Human Race.

”You did very well this time. Thanks to you, this Formation was discovered. After I return, I will request the Sect Master not to continue sending more personnel into the Fissure until we have a large number of Disciples.”

”Even if we obtain more resources, if we cannot hold onto them, it is all empty talk. I now even suspect that the alien race revealing their flaws earlier was completely intentional, just to give us a reason to abandon the interests on the other side of the Fissure, let the Human Race occupy it in large numbers, and then have them turn their guns to invade the Heavenly Domain.”

Lin Tianxuan’s words made everyone present feel a chill run through their bodies; this was indeed an extremely likely scenario.

The Human Race is relatively greedy; everyone knows this.

If someone were to exploit this and make an issue of it, the Human Race would very likely take the bait, as everyone wants to look out for their own interests.

A large number of people entering the spatial fissure has caused the defensive forces of the Heavenly Domain to become very weak.

After Lin Tianxuan left, the others gritted their teeth and chose to continue deeper. There were still many Mortal nations that had not been explored; they hoped that such a situation would not happen again!
