Chapter 6818: Bat Ancestor A figure appeared above Golden Lamp with sky-blotting wings. “Bat Ancestor, no need to act mysterious, this does not intimidate us.” Blaze Ancestor spewed a fire dragon and lit up the sky. Everyone then saw the bat wings clearly, seemingly sucking the light out of the world. “Looks like it’ll be a fierce fight today.” A voice came from the floating city, heard by all below. Since Primal Eagle couldn’t enter, the city was immensely far away from Golden Lamp. However, everyone could still hear his voice. Those strong enough could see his figure. “Bat Ancestor.” One of them said. This ancient ancestor was a direct disciple of Primal Eagle, far stronger than Blaze and his allies. “We gather here today to destroy you fallen traitors!” Six-foot Monarch shouted, sending destructive waves into space. “Boom!” Bat Ancestor leaped onto the front wall, using his wings to create an invisible barrier and easily stopping the attack. It appeared that he alone could stop two ancient ancestors from Golden Lamp. “You don’t have the power to destroy our city.” He said: “This is merely courting death but it does save us time.” His voice didn’t manifest in a physical aura but still pierced listeners’ ears. “Going to need more than just you.” Ironleaf spoke, interrupting the sound waves from rupturing eardrums. “Of course, this is not my war alone.” Bat Ancestor said. “The big eagle wants to join? If not, no need to waste breath.” Six-foot laughed. “Master would finish this in the blink of an eye.” Bat said confidently. “He is not the only supreme overlord here.” Blaze said. “Ah, right, I almost forgot, Goldsilver Tree is still around.” Bat nodded. They were once the strongest sect in Golden Lamp. Thus, they knew more about this place than any other power in Stygian. “Unfortunately, we aren’t here for ourselves but rather, Devouring Abyss.” He added. “Devouring Abyss...” The alliance shuddered upon hearing this name. “We might not be able to destroy you but if the immortals join, you will all become food, the end of your lineages.” He said. “We will not retreat against the immortals and shall fight to the last breath. Courage and determination fuel us against the darkness for eras now, whether it be Devouring Alliance or any other dark forces.” Thunder Emperor’s words resonated with her allies. “Never retreat! Never retreat!” They shouted in response. “After we are dead, more of us will pop up to fight against the darkness. This won’t be the first time or the last.” Six-foot laughed. This was indeed the truth. Although Golden Lamp’s population was nearly wiped out several times, the seeds of life always returned in this eternal conflict. The light of the lamp gave them hope. 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎 “Although what you say is true, I am from Golden Lamp and do not wish for a life to the death. I am here for one thing only, as long as you give it to me, we will withdraw immediately, never to invade again in the future.” Bat said. “How persuasive, and why should we trust you?” Six-foot laughed. “We do not make deals nor compromise with the darkness.” Thunder Emperor was more direct.
