Starting with the Immortal Cultivation System, what can you use to fight me?

Then, the black-robed man stood up and took out several glass bottles filled with blood from his body. The bottles emitted a strange light. They were the "warrior's blood" he carefully collected to nourish the existence in the bronze coffin and accelerate the process of breaking the seal.

"Great Master, this is the 'Warrior's Blood' I carefully prepared for you. Absorb it well! Once you have absorbed it, you will be able to break the chain seal!"

The black-robed figure frantically poured the blood from the glass bottle onto the bronze coffin. Every drop of blood stirred up circles of black ripples, as if being greedily devoured by some force. A pungent smell of blood filled the air, intertwining with the surrounding cold air to create a suffocating atmosphere.

"Click——"

Suddenly, a pitch-black iron chain cracked with a subtle sound, and then more chains began to break, releasing an even thicker black mist. The bronze coffin shook violently, as if something inside was struggling to break free.

"boom--!"

With a deafening bang, the bronze coffin finally couldn't bear the weight and exploded. Black mist surged out like a tide, instantly filling the entire altar.

Wrapped in this black fog, a figure slowly emerged. He was tall, covered with dry and hard skin, and his eyes were as red as blood. He was the legendary drought demon, a terrifying existence that should only exist in ancient books and legends.

The black fog surrounding his body squirmed as if it had life, and every breath caused the surrounding air to distort, releasing a heart-pounding pressure.

"Hahaha... I, Sima Yan, have finally been reborn. Lin Cangqiong, you never imagined that! Back then, you destroyed my physical body with your extraordinary talent, but you never expected that I would use this corpse-raising ground to be reborn as the body of a drought demon! Today, I will not only avenge my past, but also make the entire Xia Kingdom, and even the world, submit to me!"

The voice of Hanba Sima Yan was low and hoarse, but it carried an unquestionable majesty and echoed throughout the ruins.

"Congratulations, Master, for your comeback as a king!"

The black-robed man knelt on the ground, prostrating himself devoutly at the feet of Hanba Sima Yan, his eyes filled with fanaticism and reverence. Hanba simply raised his hand, and an invisible force lifted him up, as if he were the most humble being in the world, requiring a gift to even look up to him.

"Unkind, thank you for your hard work."

"Master, it's not hard, this is what I should do!"

"Where are the unjust others? Why didn't they come with you?"

"Master, twenty years ago, my brother... was killed by Lin Cangqiong's son, Lin Cangxuan!"

The black-robed man's surname was Wen, and his given name was Bu Ren. When he mentioned his younger brother, Bu Yi, a subtle flash of sadness and hatred flashed in his eyes. He knew full well that the two brothers had followed Sima Yan since childhood, swearing loyalty to him until death. Yet, fate had twisted things, and Bu Yi had perished before him at the hands of the Lin family.

"I see... Let's settle the Lin family's accounts one by one." There was a hint of coldness in Hanba Sima Yan's voice, and his red eyes flashed with the flame of revenge.

"Hehe...Buren, I have good news for you. I smelled the unique scent of the Lin family. He's outside. Great... You came at the perfect time! I also want to taste the blood of the Lin family. How delicious is it!"

A cruel smile appeared on the corner of Sima Yan's mouth, and that smile looked particularly hideous in the dim ruins.

"Oh? Really? That's great, Master."

Upon hearing this, Wen Bu Ren also showed a sinister smile on his face.

"Let's go out and meet the Lin family and a bunch of ants."

Before Sima Yan, the drought demon, could finish his words, he transformed into a dark shadow, weaving through the black fog at an astonishing speed, as if even space could not restrict his movements. Wen Bu Ren followed closely behind, his heart filled with anticipation and enthusiasm for the coming revenge.

at the same time.

Lin Han and others finally arrived at the stone gate at the entrance of the ruins.

"We're finally here! Is this the entrance to the ruins?"

Wu Hao gazed at the ancient, mottled stone door before him, feeling both anticipation and apprehension. The door was carved with intricate totems, and time had left deep marks on its surface, yet it still exuded an indescribable majesty and mystery.

"Oh no...Everyone, step back! Something is coming out of the stone gate!"

At this moment, Lin Han's consciousness suddenly sensed an unprecedented terrifying aura surging from behind the stone door. His face suddenly changed, and he shouted a warning. Everyone was startled upon hearing this, and quickly stepped back, watching the mysterious door warily as it was about to be unveiled.

The stone door slowly vibrated, as if being pushed open by an invisible force from within. The black mist that shone through the cracks intertwined with the cold air outside, creating a chaotic scene. Within the black mist, a pair of crimson eyes, as red as torches, flickered with a terrifying light. These were the eyes of Sima Yan, the drought demon.

"System, you really know how to choose the right time to release tasks! In one word...absolute!" Lin Han said inwardly.

【(?￣??￣??)??…You’re welcome! Come on, host!】

Lin Han:……

soon.

"boom--!"

With a deafening roar, the stone door burst open, and a thick, sinister wind, mixed with the pungent smell of blood, blew in, nearly making one nauseous. Sima Yan, the drought demon, emerged slowly from the black fog like a king from the underworld. The black fog surrounding him seemed to have substance, a terrifying sight.

"Boy! You are a member of the Lin family, right?" Hanba Sima Yan's voice was low and full of majesty. His red eyes seemed to be able to see through people's hearts. He looked directly at Lin Han, revealing a strong murderous intent and the pleasure of revenge.

"I'm your long-lost father!"

Lin Han curled up the corner of his mouth in a sneer. Facing this legendary terrifying existence, he not only did not show any fear, but instead displayed an extraordinary calmness and confidence.

[Resentment value from Hanba Sima Yan +]

"Hmph, arrogant boy, today I'll let you see what true despair is!" Hanba Sima Yan was enraged by Lin Han's provocation. The black fog around him boiled more violently, and waves of cold air swept towards Lin Han and others like a tide.

"Hanba, don't act rashly. This Heavenly Master is here to meet you! Let me give you a taste of my Thunder Cloud Sword!"

Upon seeing this, Tianshi Lei Zhen roared and leaped up like a thunderbolt, wielding the Thunder Cloud Sword as he charged towards Sima Yan, the drought demon. With a tap of the sword's tip, thunder roared, and countless flashes of lightning seemed to whirl through the air, coalescing into a thick pillar of lightning that thunderously struck the drought demon.

"Watch out, you beast!"

Master Wang Ye was not willing to be left behind. With a flash of his body, he was already at the side of Hanba. He quickly formed seals with his hands and muttered something. Then a bright green light shot out from his palms and turned into a huge bronze sword. With the sound of breaking through the air, it slashed towards Hanba fiercely.
