Dark blue blood flowed across the ground like a river.
The humans who had been captured were all in shock.
This was a power far beyond what any human could possess!
"%￥##!!!"
The alien priest, who resembled a ritualistic figure, was equally stunned, muttering incessantly to itself.
Yefan's gaze shifted to the alien.
Behind it stood a massive statue of a creature—a goat-headed figure with a humanoid body. Its eyes gleamed with malice.
Yefan, holding his sword, slowly walked toward the alien priest.
Seeing Yefan approach, the alien's eyes filled with terror.
It continued muttering, but Yefan couldn't understand a word.
"It doesn't matter what you say. You're going to die," Yefan said coldly, looking at the bodies of the humans around him. His expression darkened.
These innocent people had been captured and sacrificed by the aliens.
Despicable creatures.
As the alien continued chanting, its eyes suddenly widened.
Roar—
The alien let out a deafening roar.
The giant evil god statue behind it began to glow with a blinding white light!
In that instant, Yefan could feel a tremendous surge of energy.
What is this...?
Sensing the overwhelming power, Yefan felt a flicker of surprise.
This energy had an intensity that made Yefan feel a genuine sense of danger.
Soon, the light from the statue condensed into a special energy that flowed into the alien priest's body.
Roar—
The alien roared once more.
Its body began to transform before Yefan's eyes, growing visibly larger.
Its arms swelled with muscle, and its fingernails sharpened into deadly claws.
Horns sprouted from its head, curving like a ram's.
"%￥#...￥￥!!!"
The alien roared at Yefan before charging at him.
In an instant, it was right in front of Yefan!
So fast!
Yefan's expression changed slightly as he reacted, swinging the Yefan Sword.
Clang—
The sword clashed with the alien's razor-sharp claws, creating a deafening metallic sound.
Yefan was surprised to find that his sword hadn't severed the alien's claws.
Upon closer inspection, he noticed a faint white light covering the alien's body.
It seemed this special energy was protecting its body.
"Impressive," Yefan remarked with a cold smile.
Although his power hadn't yet fully unlocked the sword's additional abilities, he could still defeat the creature with pure swordsmanship.
With that thought, Yefan gripped his sword tightly and unleashed a flurry of attacks.
Clang clang clang—
The Yefan Sword clashed repeatedly with the alien's claws, filling the air with the sound of metal striking metal.
The sword was too sharp, and soon the alien's claws were cut in half.
Roar—
The alien screamed in pain.
As Yefan continued his assault, the alien instinctively raised its other arm to block.
It believed the protective energy would shield it again.
But in the next moment, Yefan's sword sliced cleanly through the alien's left arm.
Dark blue blood sprayed into the air.
"Die!" Yefan roared, swinging his sword at the alien's neck.
Boom—
With a thunderous sound, the alien's head was severed from its body.
It was slain.
The massive body of the alien collapsed to the ground with a loud thud.
Crack crack—
The statue of the evil god behind it began to fracture, splintering into countless pieces.
"So, that was the power of the evil god this alien worshipped," Yefan muttered as he stared at the crumbled statue.
His gaze then shifted to the group of survivors ahead.
There were over a thousand people.
They looked at Yefan with wide eyes, filled with fear.
What they had just witnessed was beyond comprehension—an unfathomable display of power.
"Don't be afraid," Yefan said, offering a faint smile. "I'm also from Blue Star."
It was hard to believe that in just five years, Blue Star had changed so drastically.
He wondered what had happened to his parents.
...
"Are you leaving now?" Sumo asked as he watched Yefan prepare to leave after gathering information about the nearby area.
"Yes," Yefan replied.
"You should be safe once you reach the nearest city," Yefan said, glancing back at the survivors.
The city he used to live in was only 500 kilometers away. At full speed, he would reach it quickly.
"Until we meet again," Yefan said with a nod. With that, he concentrated his energy, and under the gaze of all the survivors, he began to ascend into the sky.
Home.
With a thought, his entire body erupted with power.
Whoosh—
He shot off into the distance like a comet.
"Is he... a god?" Sumo murmured, watching Yefan disappear from sight.
Everything that had just transpired felt like a dream.
The once-powerful aliens and their evil god had been nothing more than insects in Yefan's path.
As Yefan flew at great speed, his cultivation technique automatically activated.
Every pore in his body absorbed the energy around him.
This influx of energy filled Yefan's body with an exhilarating sense of power.
Time passed without him noticing.
Soon, Yefan spotted a familiar landmark in the distance—a towering mountain coiled like a dragon.
It was his hometown.
"That's it!"
Seeing the mountain, Yefan felt a surge of excitement.
But as he looked closer, his expression began to darken.
