Starting as a clan leader: My rules are a bit wild.

In the void behind.

Lin Fan stood calmly, silently watching the battle ahead.

He didn't take action.

Or rather, there is no need for him to take action now.

This battle may seem brutal, but in reality, it is a test for all of us. If we were to sweep through it ourselves, it would lose its meaning.

Without this kind of tempering, Shi Hao and his companions would never be able to reach that highest level.

"However, there are also quite a few differences."

"In terms of timeline, it needs to be 'ahead of schedule' a lot."

“In the original novel, Shi Hao’s son was already able to participate in the war, but here, he doesn’t have a son at all.”

"Furthermore, in the original story, Shi Hao was buried several times, but here, he is not even a thousand years old."

"The progress has been accelerated a lot."

"But this is fine."

"Young people are full of energy and have a much stronger spirit than 'old people.' Given time, they will eventually grow into towering trees."

"As for now..."

"Let's revive Liu Shen first."

Lin Fan transmitted his voice to Shi Hao, and then with a wave of his hand, he retrieved the remains of the Willow God.

Lin Fan sighed softly as he stroked the dark tree stump.

"The fate of Liu Shen has also changed a lot."

"But the enemy was ultimately too strong. Although she was stronger than in the original story, she couldn't possibly reach the other side alone, much less set foot on that secluded plateau..."

"Fortunately, I have already offered sacrifices to Tao."

"It is possible to revive her."

"It just takes time and effort."

Willow God is an Immortal Emperor. Reviving an Immortal Emperor, even if it involves sacrificing one's Dao, requires a certain price to pay. However, Lin Fan can afford this price.

With a single thought, he reflected on the past of the Willow Goddess, and even created a void world, where everything was solely for the Willow Goddess's service.

Just to revive her!

The remnant body of the Willow God also fell into that void world, where it floated and sank, gradually regaining its vitality.

That is at this moment.

The Supreme Ruler and Wutian arrived, the three standing side by side. The Supreme Ruler immediately noticed the problem and frowned slightly: "These people who have reached the end of their path..."

"The atmosphere was very strange and eerie."

"Moreover, they can be resurrected continuously, and even if we sever their cause and effect, we cannot stop them."

"They're very hard to kill!"

Wu Tian crossed his arms and sneered, "If it were just these Immortal Emperors, it wouldn't be much of a deal, but there must be someone behind them, and there must be a sacrificial domain involved."

"It's just that I don't know how many people in the field of ritual are involved."

"But if those at the Sacrifice Dao Realm also possess such a bizarre ability, capable of infinite resurrection, that would be a real problem!"

They can also be resurrected.

If even Immortal Emperors are so difficult to kill, then those at the Sacrifice Dao Realm must be even more difficult.

The problem is that their resurrection requires time and energy...
But these strange immortal emperors are different.

After they die, they can immediately revive at the 'resurrection point' with full combat power, only losing external items such as magical treasures.

This is ridiculous!

Even more so, if those priests could continuously resurrect...

What's the point of even hitting it then?

We'll be worn down to death!

This is also the reason for Wutian's worries.

Everything has a source.

Lin Fan whispered, "Their ability to constantly resurrect is indeed powerful and strange, but it's impossible for them to have this ability out of thin air."

"This problem can be solved as long as we find its source and cut it off."

"Nonsense," Wutian retorted directly, "Who doesn't know that?"

"But finding the source and cutting it off is easier said than done."

“That’s right.” Lin Fan wasn’t in a hurry to argue with him, he just chuckled and said, “So, there’s another way.”

"Hmm?" Both Wutian and the Supreme Ruler turned their heads to look at Lin Fan.

Some surprises.

Is there any other way?

"seal."

Lin Fan held up one finger: "Seal them one by one. They can be resurrected, but they can't be replicated indefinitely."

"As long as we seal them all away, there shouldn't be any more problems."

Speaking of which...

Lin Fan's mood was somewhat strange when he said these words.

Before he transmigrated, he always wanted to complain whenever he read novels or watched TV series.

He was especially annoyed when the ultimate bosses came out of some kind of seal.

Everyone knows he's a bad guy, why not just kill him instead of using a sealing technique?

Isn't this a waste of time?

But now...

It's a pain that I've been reduced to relying on sealing to reduce the number of enemies.

But there was nothing he could do.

The enemy may not necessarily be that strong, but the fact that they can resurrect at full health indefinitely is too overpowered and too cheating. At this stage, without sealing them, we really can't beat them.

Even the seal might not be enough to defeat it!
All I can say is...

Using sealing techniques would definitely make things easier.

"Sealing Technique..."

The Supreme Ruler pondered and said, "We do know that you have a powerful sealing technique that can seal Immortal Emperors, so it should be no problem for those who have reached the end of their journey."

"But what about those at the Dao Realm?"

"Furthermore, is it possible for someone at the Sacrifice Dao Realm to break the seal from the outside?"

"Furthermore, if we die in battle, before we are resurrected..."

"Without your control, will those sealing techniques still be stable?"

"If things are not stable, and you die in battle, everything will be in vain."

"This is indeed a problem."

Lin Fan nodded: "No, there are several questions."

"First of all, even the Sacrifice Dao Realm can be sealed!"

"But the prerequisite is to seriously injure him and create an opportunity for me."

"As for whether those at the Sacrifice Dao Realm can break the seal from the outside, I can only say that as long as I don't die, they won't have that opportunity, nor will they be able to break it."

"As for the last question... the answer to the previous question has already been included."

Wu Tian raised an eyebrow: "So, you mean that both the Supreme Ruler and I will cooperate with you, take you as our master, and even risk our lives to save you?"

"I didn't say that."

Lin Fan shrugged: "But then again..."

"Given the current situation, this approach is indeed more advantageous for us."

"Then there's the aspect of combat strength analysis."

"On our side, there are three at the Sacred Dao Realm."

"With my disciples, plus the reinforcements, and the Immortal Emperors under your command, relying on the Myriad Rivers Returning to the Sea Formation, we should have no problem with withstanding a Dao-Sacrificing Realm expert."

"I···"

"If it's just about stalling, I should be able to take down five or six people at the Sacred Dao Realm."

"what about you?"

"???"

Both Wutian and the Supreme Ruler were numb.

I rely on.

You want to do five or six right off the bat?
Wouldn't that make us look silly?

If we only mention one... wouldn't that be incredibly weak?
"You... you've been hiding this so well?" The Supreme Ruler asked in surprise, "Don't be too careless. The Sacrifice Dao Realm is not so simple."

"I've had some insights lately, and my strength has improved somewhat."

"Five or six, if it's just a delay, there shouldn't be any problem."

Actually, Lin Fan wanted to say that he could probably do ten or eight of those jobs.

After all, when the Desolate Heavenly Emperor performed his Dao sacrifice, he was able to fight the Ten Mysterious Ancestors to a standstill, and even killed several of them. It was only because they kept resurrecting that the Desolate Heavenly Emperor was ultimately defeated and could only go into hiding with serious injuries. I should be no weaker than the Desolate Heavenly Emperor at that stage.

At least he cultivates the Great Dao of Power, and has the shared blessing of the entire sect's power.

Delaying ten or eight people at the Sacred Dao Realm shouldn't be a problem, right?
However, in order to avoid frightening the Supreme Ruler and Wutian, and also to put some pressure on them, I said five or six.

"Then what's the point of saying anything?"

Wu Tian chuckled strangely: "What do you take the Sacrificial Dao Realm for? Like cabbage?"

"If you can hold off five or six people by yourself, then you're guaranteed to win this battle, aren't you?"

"You can handle it all by yourself!"

"not that simple."

Lin Fan shook his head: "It won't be that easy."

"The Sacrificial Dao Realm is indeed not a common commodity, but it can treat the entire Boundary Sea as its backyard for harvesting, and it has harvested countless times over countless eras."

"The opponent's level of the Sacrifice Realm is definitely not low."

"I estimate..."

"At least twenty."

"There could even be thirty."

"There may even be beings beyond the sacrificial path."

"So, five or six is ​​really very, very few."

"That's precisely why I wanted to ask you this."

"Could you...do a few more?"

"After all, the capable should do more. You two are seniors, so you must be more capable than me, right?"

Supreme Ruler: "(⊙_⊙)···"

Wutian: "...How much?"

The two of them felt a chill run down their spines.

grass.

I thought five, six, seven, or eight people at the Sacrifice Dao Realm would be the maximum, but you just casually mentioned twenty, thirty, and even some above the Sacrifice Dao Realm?

What's the point of even hitting it then?

If the opponent is really that strong, what's the point of us even playing?

Hurry up and go home to enjoy life.

"How did you determine there would be so many?" Even the Supreme Ruler was panicked.

If there are that many, how can we possibly win?!
Lin Fan shrugged: "There's no way to judge. I can only say it's a kind of intuition."

"Simply intuition."

"But my intuition has always been very accurate."

Wu Tian: "...Nonsense, at our level, how could our intuition be inaccurate? But why don't I have this kind of intuition?"

"Everyone can sense different things."

Lin Fan responded in this way.

He couldn't possibly say it was because he knew the plot. Back then, the Desolate Emperor fought ten people with only one Sacrifice Dao Realm cultivator. Now, his side has three. If it's one against ten, then there would be thirty people, right?
As for the sacrificial ceremony...
There are already thirty people at the Sacrifice Dao Realm. It wouldn't be a problem if someone above the Sacrifice Dao Realm suddenly appeared, would it?
Furthermore, if we consider Shi Hao and his group as a single Sacrifice Dao Realm cultivator, then the opposing side may have more than forty Sacrifice Dao Realm cultivators!

Wutian frowned and looked at the Supreme Ruler.

Even the Supreme Ruler felt a chill run down his spine.

"this···"

"Personally speaking, even if I try my best, I estimate I can only delay three or four people at the Sacrifice Dao Realm, and it will be difficult to win. I might even be killed after some time."

Wutian: "..."

"I am..."

"I am no weaker than Ye Fan."

Wu Tian wasn't entirely sure himself.

His strength mainly comes from his own background; he follows the path of overwhelming others with force and is adept at crushing his opponents with a higher level of skill.

Facing opponents of the same level, who had broken through to the Sacrifice Path many years earlier than him, and having to fight multiple opponents, how could he know how many he could withstand?
But a man can't just say no, can he?
Therefore, I can only say that I am no weaker than Ye Fan...

"That would be troublesome."

Lin Fan shrugged and smiled wryly: "You two, we should both be prepared to be killed countless times. Everything is just to buy time."

Wu Tian frowned: "Can we win by stalling for time?"

"can."

"Trust those who come after."

Lin Fan's wry smile turned into a bright one: "At least, I believe in my disciples."

"They will grow."

"Moreover, it is even possible to surpass you and me and stand in the realm above the path of sacrifice."

"That's all we can do." After the initial shock, Ye Fan calmed down and said seriously, "I'm also willing to believe in those who come after me."

"Besides, this is all we can do."

"Delay the time, stop those at the Sacrifice Realm, buy time for those who come later, wait for them to break through, wait for them to catch up with us."

"Therefore, perhaps we should cut off this space-time, block out all the darkness, and create a not-so-perfect perfect world for this side of the dam."

Lin Fan: "..."

Good guy.

Isn't this an absolute and unparalleled rule?

So, as expected, everything happened ahead of schedule, and in the end, it was us who... kept going.

It is not a matter of absolute certainty throughout history.

Is it 'Three breaks through ten thousand ages'?
"In the battle of Immortal Emperors, they are excellent enough; it seems we are unnecessary." Having made his decision, Ye Fan no longer hesitated, looking at the two with gleaming eyes: "Shall we set off?"

"Then..."

"set off!"

boom!
They appeared and forcefully headed towards the embankment.

Along the way, Lin Fan also sealed seven strange Immortal Emperors, temporarily relieving some of the pressure on Shi Hao and the others.

"···"

Shi Hao and the others looked into the distance, their hearts filled with dread.

"Master and the others have made their move."

"Three cultivators at the Sacrificial Dao Realm joining forces..."

"Why does it also give me an incredibly tragic feeling? As if they had made all the preparations, even... a heroic sacrifice?"

"This only proves one thing."

"At the end of the Boundary Sea, or rather, beyond all the heavens and myriad realms... lies a terror beyond our comprehension." Fan Jianqiang, unusually, did not hide anything.

At this moment, a murderous glint flashed in his eyes as he whispered, "Everyone, let's get stronger quickly."

"Master and the others..."

"They need us."

boom!
Before anyone else could say anything more...

Suddenly, the space-time ahead collapsed!
Lin Fan turned and drew his sword!

He used the Dao of Power to govern the Dao of Time and Space, forcefully severing time and space with a single sword strike, forcibly separating the two sides and completely dividing them into two different worlds.

One sword...

Severing all ages!
"this?!"

Shi Hao, Xiao Ling'er, Ya Ya and the others' expressions changed drastically.

"Just what kind of terror lies beyond the Boundary Sea?"

"They actually made our master and the others feel completely insecure, and even wanted to forcibly separate us in order to save our lives and buy us time?"

They weren't stupid; they could naturally guess Lin Fan's intentions.

But it is precisely because of this that they are even more terrified.

"Don't worry about it so much."

"All we need to do is kill the enemy and become stronger, nothing more."

Fan Jianqiang spoke in a low voice: "The moment we step into the realm of the sacrificial path, or even step onto the sacrificial path itself..."

Everything will become clear in time.

"Only by embarking on the path of sacrifice can one be qualified to follow the master and face the ultimate darkness."

"···"

"Since that's the case, then..."

"kill!"

With a low roar, they all charged with all their might towards the endless stream of Immortal Emperors attacking from the opposite side. They wanted to kill enemies, break through to higher levels, embark on the path of sacrifice, and, most importantly, follow in their master's footsteps, standing shoulder to shoulder with him!
