The young man in the green robe had a handsome face, like an exiled immortal who transcended worldly concerns, yet his words carried a chilling, sinister edge.

Chai Chuanxin turned to look at the young man beside him and sneered inwardly. If it weren’t for trying to win over this ’Wolong’ son, and realizing his greater ambitions among the human race, he would have long let the other party taste the prowess of the Gambling Fox.

Chai Chuanxin was deeply troubled in his heart. Ever since he messed up the Golden Wind Flower affair last time, he had been scolded by the old ancestor of the Demon Race, enduring a series of setbacks. If not for the fact that he had some usefulness left, he feared he would have long been skinned and gutted by the old ancestor.

However, his family’s old ancestor had possessed a concubine from Prince Pingbian’s Mansion, wanting to absorb the Dragon Qi of Prince Pingbian, then sneak into the deep palace of the humans to seize the True Dragon Fate, and take the opportunity to break through to the Nine-tailed stage. Therefore, he was ordered to find every possible way to pave the path for the old ancestor to enter the palace. He painstakingly arranged a network of connections within the human race to curry favor with the young man before him.

There is a saying, ’South Zhong Xiang, North Wolong.’ And the young man before him was the North Wolong: Zhuge Cheng.

The Zhuge family’s inherent bloodline excelled in grasping Celestial Secrets and could perceive the flow of time, mastering the Power of Time. They were the handlers of the Observatory for Emperor Dasheng, dedicated to divining and observing future variables for the Great Victory Royal Family, who trusted them deeply.

Moreover, Zhuge Cheng was the eldest son of the Zhuge Family, carrying the heavenly mandate on his shoulders. Each time the Emperor Dasheng held a selection, the Observatory needed to personally oversee it. He wanted to befriend Zhuge Cheng for the future, to send Zhang Xiaohua (Bai Cang) into the Inner Imperial Palace to cultivate with the Dragon Qi of the humans.

Although Zhuge Cheng was the Zhuge family’s eldest son and was generally expected to inherit the family’s leadership, he could not withstand the emergence of a prodigy in the family: Zhuge Chengfeng, his younger half-brother, born of a concubine. During the previous rift in the Immortal Realm, Zhuge Chengfeng accidentally consumed a mysterious object and actually awakened the most enigmatic power of Time Superpower: Time Reversal.

Among countless members of the Zhuge Clan, spanning from ancient times to the present, he was the only one who could master Time Reversal.

And the horror of Time Reversal, once showcased, instantly attracted numerous elders of the Zhuge family in admiration. Especially when Zhuge Chengfeng reversed time by five years for an elder who was about to die, it drove the Zhuge Clan into a frenzy.

The crux of the issue was that Zhuge Cheng’s mother caused the death of Zhuge Chengfeng’s mother. Zhuge Chengfeng’s mother was merely a concubine, insignificant and treated like a servant, oppressed and mistreated by Zhuge Cheng’s mother. But who would have thought that Zhuge Chengfeng would suddenly awaken such terrifying power?

Seeing the Zhuge family turning upside down, many clan elders started supporting Zhuge Chengfeng. Even Zhuge Cheng’s great-grandfather personally appeared to nurture Zhuge Chengfeng, leaving Zhuge Cheng feeling unsettled. He had to purify his bloodline and seize more power to suppress that lowly half-brother.

At that moment, possessed by the Gambling Fox, Chai Chuanxin ’accidentally’ mentioned knowing the Secret Technique of purifying the bloodline at a certain tavern, and it was ’coincidentally’ overheard by Zhuge Cheng, leading to an immediate opportunity for them to recognize each other.

Of course, the Secret Technique for Essence Bloodline Power was real, helping Zhuge Cheng purify his bloodline was real, but making a profit in the process was also real.

Upon hearing Zhuge Cheng’s doubts, the Gambling Fox smiled lightly: "Sir, please calm yourself. Just wait another quarter of an hour, and you will know if it’s true or not. When the blood flows like a river here, with the blood of thousands of wild beasts mixed with the blood of humans, it will be enough to coagulate the ’Flesh-Birth Pool,’ and combined with the Moonlight that the humble one obtained, it will allow you to refine your bloodline and gain mastery of Time Reversal."

"The demon race purifies their bloodline in such a manner, first by letting beasts slaughter, then using the beasts’ blood, combined with Moonlight, to concoct a supreme elixir capable of coagulating a Divine Object of Essence Bloodline Power. This formula was obtained by the humble one years ago at the cost of nine lives within the demon race, and today you will witness its effects." The Gambling Fox smiled: "Your bastard brother merely possesses Time Reversal, which can forcibly rejuvenate people, but the drawbacks are also extremely apparent. With Time Reversal, although longevity reverses, memory and strength revert as well, causing memory loss and strength decline. You already wield Time Freeze, and Time Differentiation, giving you a distinct advantage. If you can go further, regardless of mastering Time Reversal or Time Acceleration, you will suppress your brother."

Upon hearing this, Zhuge Cheng sighed lightly: "You don’t know the terror of Time Reversal. My elders in the family say that Zhuge Chengfeng has the potential for eternal life, to live until the end of time. Even many dying old men will endure the side effects of Time Reversal just to live on. If I can’t master Time Reversal, sooner or later, he will overturn everything!"

"By maintaining Time Reversal, his bloodline is suppressed, reverting in time, and his strength will never advance. Why fear such a waste whose strength cannot progress?" Chai Chuanxin spoke flatteringly without a trace of marks.

"I am of the bloodline that governs time, and whenever I activate Time Divine Techniques, I actually can choose to exempt myself from the side effects of the divine techniques. I suspect that Zhuge Chengfeng has been concealing his strength; he can not only apply Time Reversal to himself, but each time it enhances his bloodline. Just like me, if I initiate Time Freeze, I can exempt myself from it, unaffected by the Power of Time." Zhuge Cheng said.

Upon hearing Zhuge Cheng’s words, Chai Chuanxin’s eyes flashed with shock, yet greed flickered: ’If I could seize Zhuge Chengfeng’s bloodline...’. This thought halted abruptly, and then he commented nonchalantly: "Can it have such an effect?"

"So you should know why I am so wary of him, and how fearsome his bloodline powers are," Zhuge Cheng said.

Listening to Zhuge Cheng’s words, Chai Chuanxin’s expression soured, saying: "Such a lowly person actually possesses such means, truly unfair."

While speaking, Chai Chuanxin turned his head to look into the distance, noticing something amiss. Beside him, Zhuge Cheng remarked: "Are the beasts you’ve drawn in experiencing disorder and fighting amongst themselves?"

Chai Chuanxin’s eyes were full of disbelief, and he hurriedly took out a flute from his sleeve, bringing it to his lips and playing it. By Zhuge Cheng’s side, he dared not use his Great Demon status to initiate a beast tide directly and could only rely on external means to disguise his actions.

As the flute sound subsided, the beast formation changed, but within the 2000-meter vicinity where Zhang Chen presided, all the beasts continued to slaughter each other relentlessly.

"Something’s wrong in that direction, it seems a Bloodline Practitioner is interfering. This person seems to be able to control the beasts, disrupting my Beast Taming Technique," Chai Chuanxin’s eyes were filled with coldness.

Zhuge Cheng turned his head to look at Chai Chuanxin and just asked:

"What should we do?"

Chai Chuanxin’s expression was stern: "Haha, allow me to check personally."

After saying that, Chai Chuanxin’s figure flickered and vanished from the ground. He mastered Void Transformation, so even when in human form, he could still perform various Divine Techniques.

Watching Chai Chuanxin disappear, Zhuge Cheng muttered to himself, "What a great technique!"

If it weren’t for the opponent’s great technique, he would never have believed him, let alone befriended him.

Chai Chuanxin walked through the earth all the way, approaching the field of Zhang Chen’s Beast Control Technique, but as he reached the brink of the Beast Taming Technique’s field, just about to step in, he suddenly halted, and a sense of inexplicable crisis surged in his heart.

"Something’s not right! There’s a strange power permeating the void ahead, this power can control all beasts! Even facing this field, I feel shock in my heart," Gambling Fox muttered at the edge of the field. As the youngest prodigy of the Fox Race, known as the number one of the younger generation, it’s not just his extraordinary means, but also his unbelievable sense of crisis, sensing subliminally the autumn wind before it even moves.

"No! I can’t go alone, I need to bring Zhuge Cheng along!" Gambling Fox thought, quickly retreated, and returned in front of Zhuge Cheng again.

"Was it resolved?" Zhuge Cheng saw Gambling Fox return and asked.

"The opponent is tricky, I must ask you, sir, to hold the line," Chai Chuanxin said humbly.

"Oh?" Zhuge Cheng showed interest: "What level is the opponent’s Cultivator?"

"I don’t know, I just feel it’s very dangerous and dare not take risks lightly!" Gambling Fox replied.

"Let’s go, let’s meet him," Zhuge Cheng expressed interest: "No matter who it is, anyone blocking my Essence Bloodline Power deserves death!"

"I’ll lead the way, you stay behind to hold the line, if there’s a chance to strike unexpectedly, it would be for the best," Gambling Fox said, then ran grandly down the mountain, summoned an elephant, and rode on its back towards the distant battlefield.

Meanwhile, Zhang Chen sat amidst the beast tide, continuously manipulating the beasts’ slaughter, only feeling increasingly uncertain as time went on, because the beasts in the night seemed endless like a tide, fighting incessantly without a sign of an end.

And the Human Race refugees had suffered heavy losses, with tigers and other beasts occasionally rushing into crowds of old, young, weak, and women to massacre, causing chaos among the people.

"The situation for the Human Race doesn’t look good!" Zhang Chen felt anxious: "The best way to resolve the crisis is to find the Demon Beast commanding the beast tide from behind, and deliver a fatal blow, then the beast tide will naturally disperse without command."

But that Demon Beast was incredibly stealthy, never showing itself, depriving him of the chance to act.

Just as Zhang Chen’s heart was swirling with various emotions, his pupils suddenly contracted, his eyes seemingly penetrating the night, seeing the rear of the beast tide.

"Gambling Fox, so it’s him causing trouble from behind?" Zhang Chen’s heart skipped a beat.
