167: Chapter 167 The False Doctor Devours Life, Betrayed by All!

But just as he finished shouting those words...

The thing that had been suppressed underground for so long finally surged up.

Boom!

A dull explosion erupted from the depths of the Ancestral Land.

In the next instant, a large area of blood-colored runes on the ground flipped and curled, and two auras soared into the sky simultaneously.

These were the two Qis of Life and Death, one black and one white. The two torrents tore through the soil and poured straight into the high sky.

A pungent wind blew in their faces.

Evil Qi swept across!

In an instant, the temperature of the Wang Family Ancestral Land plummeted, and countless Disciples shivered from the cold.

Xu Tian looked up, staring at the two rising pillars of Qi, and the wretchedness on his face suddenly gained a few more hints of madness.

Lin Yi also looked up, his gaze gradually sinking.

This battle had only just reached the point of true bloodshed.

The rumbling continued to roll in the depths of the Ancestral Land.

The black and white pillars of Qi broke through the earth, one wrapped in thick deathly intent and the other carrying surging vitality, pouring straight into the high sky.

Half the sky turned dark.

Outside the Wang Family city walls, many spectating Cultivators retreated together.

Frost formed on some people's sleeves, while others felt a tightness in their chests, their breathing falling out of rhythm.

Lin Yi stood at the very front, his black robes fluttering, his gaze pressing straight toward the center of the formation.

Xu Tian wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his fingers flying as his hand seals moved so fast they left afterimages.

The mass of Qi in his chest also began to throb violently.

The blood runes on the ground suddenly came to life, and lines of blood crawled out from under the cracked bluestones.

They entangled the Wang Family guards lying by the edge of the formation, the clansmen who had just been wounded, and several branch Elders who were still screaming in pain.

In the next moment...

All of these people were dragged toward the center of the formation!

At first, some thought Xu Tian was stepping in to save their lives.

A Wang Family guard with a broken leg, just as he was coiled by the blood lines, his eyes immediately lit up with hope, and he shouted toward the city wall with a hoarse voice.

"Young Master Xu, save me!"

"Save me!"

Xu Tian tilted his chin, his eyes turning red, and his hands formed seals even faster.

"Shut up."

"The Medical Dao connects life and death; saving trash like you is a pure waste."

"Borrowing your remnant lives to sustain my eternal Great Dao, only then is it worth something!"

As soon as he finished speaking...

The center of the formation shook with a boom.

The guard's body suddenly straightened, and a wail squeezed out of his throat.

His flesh shriveled on the spot, and his hair turned white in large clumps.

A pale green current of air emerged from his chest, rushing all the way toward Xu Tian along the blood line.

It wasn't just one.

A second one.

A third one.

Over a dozen people who had been dragged inside convulsed simultaneously as their vitality surged along the formation runes, pouring entirely into Xu Tian.

Xu Tian's originally pale face actually managed to gain a few hints of a healthy flush.

The group of Wang Family Cultivators on the city wall were all dumbfounded.

One by one, their hands and feet went cold, and they couldn't even hold their weapons steady.

An elderly man from a Wang Family branch, clutching his broken arm, stumbled backward, his voice trembling.

"He's extracting life..."

"He's extracting the lives of our Wang Family members!"

On the other side, a young clansman was so terrified that he collapsed onto the ground.

He stared at his fellow clansmen in the formation who had aged decades in an instant, his eyes full of horror, his voice shaking.

"What... what kind of Medical Dao is this?"

"This is clearly using human lives to fill the formation!"

Upon hearing this, Xu Tian snapped his head around, his gaze terrifyingly fierce.

He raised a finger and pointed at the young man from a distance.

"What do you know?"

"Life and death are originally one. Sacrificing small lives to protect the big picture, this is the true Medical Dao!"

"If this Young Master wins today, the Wang Family can continue to survive!"

"Losing this bit of Lifespan is worth it!"

Chu Wanqing, holding her imperial zither, felt her anger flare up. Her red clothes flashed as she leaped onto the broken wall on the right.

She raised her hand to press down on the zither strings, staring at Xu Tian as she spoke coldly.

"Your skin is truly thick enough."

"Using other people's lives to pave your own way, yet you can still speak so grandiosely."

"Stop throwing dirty water on the Medical Dao."

Xu Chen, carrying the ancient desolate hall, directly burst out laughing.

"I think I finally understand."

"This set of skills of yours mainly focuses on having everyone else bleed so you can heal to full first."

"And you call it the Medical Dao?"

"You're treating the Wang Family members like suckers, burning them like Spirit Stones!"

Some people nearby couldn't hold it in and almost burst out laughing on the spot.

But in the next moment, no one could laugh anymore.

Two more Wang Family Cultivators were dragged into the Formation Eye.

The moment their bodies touched the ground, they were drained until their whole bodies convulsed, their lips turned gray, and even their screams changed in pitch.

Wang Shuo stood on high ground, his features pulled tight.

He saw it.

He saw it clearly.

But the old thing didn't even blink. He just pressed his hand down fiercely toward the bottom and roared sternly.

"Whoever dares to cause chaos will be the first to die!"

"All of you, hold your ground for this old man!"

The branch Elder who wanted to retreat had just taken two steps when Wang Shuo blasted a palm strike across the air.

Bang!

A rain of blood exploded.

The Elder didn't even have time to cry for mercy before he slammed into the city bricks, his entire chest caving in.

The Wang Family members' scalps tingled with numbness; no one dared to move anymore.

On the outer side of the Ancestral Land, the commotion was instantly suppressed.

Su Yuxi shook her white sleeves, several Dao Patterns suspended in mid-air, her gaze icy.

She stared at the center of the formation and spoke quickly.

"The three on the left have had forty percent of their Lifespan extracted."

"The old Saint guard in the middle has had most of his Essence Blood drained."

"The line on the right is even more ruthless; it's extracting the Divine Soul and Life Palace!"

"Xu Tian is devouring people!"

Lin Yi's gaze was bone-chillingly cold.

He took three steps forward.

With every step he took, the gravel by his feet trembled.

The Primordial Immortal Pupil lit up completely at this moment.

Immortal radiance flashed in his eyes, and he saw through the flow of half the formation's runes.

Whose body the vitality was flowing out of.

Which blood line the Lifespan was following toward Xu Tian.

Which injured person was being drained the fastest.

Which stream of Death Qi was flowing back into those people's internal organs.

He saw everything clearly.

Lin Yi raised his hand, and a wisp of Primordial Qi flicked from his fingertip.

Hum!

A vibrating sound rang out.

A light screen actually suspended in mid-air.

Within the light screen, over a dozen lines of flowing vitality lit up one by one, so clear that even a layman could understand.

Lin Yi's gaze swept over the people on the city wall, his voice casual yet icy.

"Do you see it?"

"This Saint guard, five hundred years of Lifespan, has already entered Xu Tian's chest."

"That branch member over there, sixty percent of his Divine Soul has been extracted; it will be hard for him to last another ten breaths."

"And those three lines under his feet, they are all sucking the blood of you Wang Family members!"

"Xu Tian, you are using the flesh and blood of the Wang Family to fill your own deficit. Impressive!!"

Xu Tian's face twitched as he heard this, the veins on his forehead throbbing.

He forced himself not to lower his head, instead raising his arm and speaking with a cold sneer.

"So what?"

"Their lowly lives, if they die, they die."

"If I use this to suppress and kill you, the Wang Family will still have to thank me."

"Besides, I've left them a breath of life."

"After the battle, this Young Master will naturally replenish it for them!"

After Lin Yi heard this, the killing intent in his eyes grew heavier and heavier.

"Replenish?"

He raised a finger and tapped lightly toward the center of the formation.

A wisp of Chaos Qi instantly pierced through the air.

Puff!

A middle-aged Wang Family Cultivator in the formation, who was entangled by blood lines, had the breath he was barely hanging onto directly shattered.

The man's eyes rolled back, and his head slammed heavily onto the ground.

Immediately after, a second elderly guard's legs went weak, and he fell to his knees with a thud, his white hair scattered all over the ground, unable to even lift his hand.

The third person was even more miserable. Just as he wanted to scream, only a mouthful of black blood rolled out of his throat.

When he collapsed, all that was left in his eyes were resentment and horror!
