Chapter 279: Bloody Scene

"This is the first time I have seen such a wonderful way to inscribe the runes." Tian Jiuyi's face flushed with admiration when he witnessed Yun Lintian's innovative inscription skills. 

As a descendant of Lord Sky Throne, he was forced to learn all kinds of formation profound arts since he was young. He was confident and believed no one among his peers could be his opponent when it came to this.

However, after seeing Yun Lintian's action, Tian Jiuyi had to admit he was far inferior to him. And even his great-grandfather, Principal Tian, might not necessarily have this level of talent when he was young.

Yun Lintian wiped the sweat out of his forehead as he said. "This is nothing, Brother Tian. I am just lucky enough to have a good teacher." Of course, the teacher he mentioned was no other than Yun Lingwei and Myriad Formation Scripture.

He carefully checked all the formation stones and then gave half of it to Tian Jiuyi before giving him some relevant instructions.

After Tian Jiuyi thoroughly understood how to use these formation stones, he took a deep breath and said. "Don't worry, Brother Yun. I can guarantee there wouldn't be any mistake."

Yun Lintian nodded and sent a sound transmission to Tian Jiuyi. "If it's possible. Don't let anyone see when you are setting up the formation."

Tian Jiuyi's eyes narrowed, and he nodded his head slightly. It wasn't because Yun Lintian didn't trust everyone here, but he wanted to reduce the risk as much as possible. After all, this matter was possibly related to the life and death of all lives in the Northern Continent.

Yun Lintian took a sip of water and asked. "By the way, Brother Tian. Did Principal Tian know about the Peng clan's conspiracy?"

Tian Jiuyi went silent for a while and slowly nodded. "He knows… However, I don't know what that old man is thinking." 

Yun Lintian's brows raised slightly. Although he didn't know Principal Tian personally, he could guess more or less why he didn't make any move on the Peng clan until now. 

A clan with thousands of years' foundation like the Peng clan wasn't something Principal Tian could handle alone. He must make sure that the Peng clan had to be destroyed in one fell swoop when he took action. Otherwise, they could make a comeback at any time.

Yun Lintian sighed. "It's not easy at all."

Tian Jiuyi seemed to understand Yun Lintian's thoughts. He hesitated briefly and finally said. "Actually…" Before he could speak further, Yun Lintian interrupted him.

"Don't say anything for now." Yun Lintian said and glanced around, trying to tell Tian Jiuyi there were too many eyes and ears around here.

Tian Jiuyi said nothing further and collected all the formation stones into his pocket.

"Right, can you control the surveillance formation to see the situation in this place? I don't know how many people they have besides that Abyssal Devourer. Perhaps they are coming out right now." Yun Lintian suddenly thought of something. Since Tian Jiuyi might possibly control the surveillance formation, why didn't they use it themselves?

Tian Jiuyi didn't say anything and made a few hand seals. A moment later, a blue light curtain appeared in front of him, and there was a live situation somewhere in the forest displayed on it.

When Tian Jiuyi and Yun Lintian clearly saw the situation displayed on the light curtain, their expressions immediately changed. The scene was clearly somewhere on the east side of the forest, but it did not resemble the forest at all. It was more like hell on earth — blood scattered everywhere along with several corpses and internal organs lying on the ground, as though they had been slaughtered by a ferocious beast…

"Ah!" Chu Mi, who glanced over and saw the scene on the light curtain, exclaimed frightfully. Her face was pale, and her legs went soft as she fell to the ground.

Her voice immediately attracted others' attention, causing them to look over. Their expressions were no different from Chu Mi when they saw them.

"W…who did this?" Bai Qingyi spoke difficultly. He was frightened to the core and angry at the same time when he recognized a few of her people among the corpses.

Qin Yiran and Qin Yuyan's complexions were unsightly as they had also discovered their people among the lifeless bodies on the ground. Although their remains were torn apart beyond recognition, Qin Yuyan could still see some parts of their clothes. They were clearly Qin clan's uniforms.

"Who is that?" Yang Chen suddenly caught a glimpse of a crimson figure at the edge of the light curtain.

Everyone turned to look, and Tian Jiuyi quickly controlled the surveillance formation. When they got to see the figure clearly, they went silent altogether.

This figure was a female who had an entire body painted crimson color. This crimson color was obviously coming from the blood. At this moment, she played with an unfortunate young man by cutting his fleshes layer upon layer. If the surveillance formation could transmit the sound, they would definitely hear a misery scream from the young man.

The crimson woman seemed to get bored in the next moment and finally ended the young man's misery by beheading him cruelly. Blood immediately gushed out from his neck like a fountain. What made everyone chill was this woman was actually enjoyed bathing in blood and even drank some of it… What kind of this terrible creature?

Yun Lintian's eyebrows creased together. His face was solemn as if he had met a great enemy. Without a doubt, this woman was the same as Abyssal Devourer. She was one of the Saint Profound Beasts in this place.

While the crimson woman enjoyed the bloody rain, she seemed to receive a message and abruptly stopped her action. A moment later, her expression became respectful, and she hurriedly waved her hand. 

What happened next was beyond everyone's comprehension. The scattered bloodstain all over the place suddenly gathered and formed into a large blood sphere floating in front of the crimson woman….
