Alucard's essence spread through, covering as much of the Xinjiang Province as he could, still failing due to its huge size, barely covering a section of this mountain range.
He focused deeply on the five figures meditating atop a mountain, thinking of ways to do this.
The memories of the dead elders didn't serve him wrong, the formation those five figures were currently meditating it was some kind of alarm formation, if any casualty was to befall the five of them while they remained there, it would immediately send an alert that would trigger some change in the array in charge of the 'Heavenly Entrance Tomes'.
Killing them as they were inside that formation wasn't an option.
His first choice was to wait until somebody came out of the barrier, but still, he needed three people.
His second option was... To lure them out of the formation.
**

He decided to wait until somebody came out of the formation and while doing that recalled some basic information about this Xinjiang province. It had what was called the 'lower clans' every single cultivator in this small civilization was the lowest of the low in the cultivation world.
This was also the place where Wang Yulan was born... She was born in the Wang Clan of Xinjiang and sold to some major clan in Huaxia, or at least, that's what he guessed because there was no way someone with the <Supreme Yin Body> would be allowed to remain in this lower rubbish bin they called 'Xinjiang'
According to the memories of the elders, once anyone reached the Pinnacle of the Soul Forming Realm, they would be allowed to enter Huaxia by joining one of the sects or if they were invited by one of the major clans, taking any elder's attention.
That was his third choice, but it was also a lengthy one, one he was not willing to waste time in.
Sensing around he noticed some rather gruesome things... Kids are being bullied by stronger kids... Females are harassed, and resources are stolen... And so on, everything under the scrutiny of those five figures, yet they did nothing about it...
This Xinjiang province was no different than a common city, a massive civilization located in the mountains, only that the citizen were cultivators.
Time passed swiftly and yet nobody came out of the barrier, he wondered if anyone coming in or out was a special occasion, be it as it may, he decided to move out with the first plan, even if killing the 'overseers' might be troublesome later on.
A part of his 'self' moved to the furthest corner of his capabilities as a small ball of flesh appeared in midair, seventy kilometres from the figure's location.
Suddenly... This 'flesh' emitted Divine energy!
!!!
It was very subtle, but right at that moment the five figures opened their eyes swiftly and looked in the same direction!
"Brother Lanmo, you go and see what's going on there..." The eldest person said out of nowhere and one of the older aged men nodded as the other four remained with their senses focused everywhere, the divine energy they felt was so subtle that they didn't feel any danger from it, just curiosity, however, their senses were still alert.
'Brother Lanmo' disappeared suddenly and blinked appearing right in front of the piece of dark 'flesh' in the next few seconds.
He looked at the dark ball that was floating in midair with a scrutinizing gaze and was about to call for reinforcements as he didn't know what that ball was, but right at that moment, the 'ball' of flesh moved at ridiculous speeds and impacted his chest! penetrating it and lodging inside his body!
*COUGH!* The man coughed a mouth of blood and the next second!
*BOOM!!* An explosion that crushed all of his internal organs occurred inside his body!
Alucard worked quickly and his shadow enveloped the man's body, the next second, 'Brother Lanmo' was standing there as if nothing happened, but with blood coming out of his mouth!
Meanwhile, back with the figures, they weren't able to 'see' what happened, but they could sense how the nature energy emitted by 'Brother Lanmo' flickered for a moment!
The eldest figure grits his teeth and 'blinked the next second!
*WOOSH!*
"Brother Lanmo, what happened? We felt your aura flicker uncontrollably just now!" The older man that was dressed in sky blue robes held 'Brother Lanmo's shoulder and asked in agitation.
"... Brother Tanluo, I don't know what happened, I came here and was suddenly attacked by some strange energy wave... I think we should regroup here and search together, the enemy might be one of those heretic gods! Tell the others to leave the formation and come here!" 'Brother Lanmo' spoke in exaltation and clutched his chest in 'pain'.
Tanluo frowned deeply, not expecting to encounter a threat like this, much less from a Heretic God... But nodded the next second as his nature energy flared in a type of formation, and within the next minute, the five figures were assembled here.
One of the ladies, a beautiful older woman in white robes spoke first, "Brother Tanluo, we came as you asked, what's the problem?... are you okay, Brother Lanmo!? What happened here!" The woman hurriedly shouted the moment she saw her companion bleeding as all of them frowned deeply.
But they all had different reactions, that woman was visibly worried, but two of the men showed contempt at Lanmo's current appearance.
'Lanmo' took the woman's shoulders with apparent weakness and whispered in her ears, "Sister Yanran..."
*PUCHI!*
The woman awaited his words, but what she received was a hand piercing her chest!
...
The other three figures, the remaining female and the two men, didn't even know how to react... The next second, before they could even activate an array or technique, Darkness spear protruded from 'Lanmo's body and pierced their heads in bloody gore!
*SPLASH!*
"Nothing personal..." 'Lanmo' said with coldness.
Alucard's spear remained in their heads even as their bodies remained 'lifeless' now this was a complicated situation...
His suspicions weren't unjustified, these people had some kind of array in their heads that would trigger upon death... It would send their last moments to some kind of organization within Huaxia... He needed to go to his women's place quickly and keep them alive until then.
Rotating his shadow, he consumed the two remaining men and took over their bodies, as they weren't technically 'dead' the array wasn't triggered but he had to make sure the aura he emitted was the same as theirs.
Not wasting any time, he took 'Sister Yanran' and the other woman's body towards where Alcina and Catherine were... Behind him followed two of his other bodies.
