For the Heavenly Thunder Black Bat King, everything happened so suddenly.
One moment, it had been imagining how it would seize the Extinction Thunder Guide from the Thunder-Patterned Golden Willow when that supremely precious treasure finally emerged.
It had even begun fantasizing about what it should do after obtaining the Extinction Thunder Guide, successfully evolving into an Emperor Species, and becoming the new Beast Emperor of the No. 47 Beast Domain.
A Half-Saint had appeared in the Demonwood Domain, and no one in the entire No. 47 Beast Domain could withstand even a single exchange with it. However, word had it that Holy Spirit-level Beast Domains had noticed the situation here, and those Holy Spirits did not like the Demonwood Half-Saint.
Thus, joining it might not be a good choice.
It would be better to wait until the powerful beings from the Upper Domain arrived, then see whether it could find an opportunity to make its species their servants and follow them to the Upper Domain. That would be a chance for both it and its species to rise to greatness in a single leap.
As it smugly entertained these thoughts, the Heavenly Thunder Black Bat King suddenly felt a terrifying palpitation.
Its flight faltered slightly. Just as it was about to investigate the source of that feeling, an incredibly sharp blade's ring reached its ears.

At the same moment it heard the blade ring, it saw a slash racing toward it through the air, frightening it out of its wits.

Was an enemy lying in ambush?
*Impossible! In this area,
