Chapter 377: Chapter 248: Finally_2
Having said that, he looked up at the formation, peering through the Black Tortoise Palace True Spirit at the towering Blood Sea, “Taoist Friend Kong still hasn’t broken through this formation?”
“…”
Hearing this, Chen Xuan remained silent, offering no response.
Though there was no response, the result was known.
“Destiny, destiny!”
Meng Fuyao sighed wearily, both in body and spirit, “The Blood Demon has spread his teachings, and the world has fallen into recession. Those Fallen Demon Golden Cores have devoured Qiankun and others, as well as the disciples of the Seven Sects. The cultivators of the world are now nearly at the level of Divinity Transformation demons, and they will soon arrive here. Are you prepared?”
“If an army comes, block it; if water comes, cover it with soil; in the end, it’s all the same in death!”
Chen Xuan heard this and replied calmly, “Being willing to sacrifice one’s life, to repay the kindness of my master, I have no regrets!”
“…”
Meng Fuyao fell silent for a while, looking at Chen Xuan, then at the Black Tortoise Palace True Spirit and the Blood Sea Great Array behind him, and shook his head with a sigh, “I can’t measure up to your methods of teaching and cultivation, my friend.”
“If that’s the case, let’s go all out, leaving life and death to the will of heaven.”
Having said that, he spoke no more and settled down outside the formation, closing his eyes to meditate.
A thousand years of arduous questing, a grand plan of Ascension, almost successful yet ultimately failing.
At this point, he no longer wished to escape.
Let’s fight!
Seeing this, Chen Xuan also said nothing more. The Kui Water Formation ran quietly, and the Black Tortoise Palace True Spirit lay dormant.
Until…
“Whoosh!”
Winds rose and clouds surged, the smell of blood pressing in.
A shadow loomed, blackening the sky and pressing towards the Blood Sea.
Looking up, one could see the firmament filled with a blood-red expanse.
Blood clouds, blood clouds, so dense that they could not be dispersed, billowing and rolling majestically.
Within the blood clouds, silhouettes flickered, all blood-flesh mutants with contorted shapes, with Demon Infants leading the way.
Demon Infants, Demon Infants, Nascent Souls of the Demon Path, born from the maturity of Demon Fetuses after the shattering of Golden Cores.
Just a month ago, it was these Demon Infants that destroyed the ascension of the Nine Cultivating, annihilating the gateways of the Seven Sects.
Now, with the force of the Blood Sea established and the rise of the Demon Path, the number of Demon Infants surpasses that of before, with countless more winged, ferocious beings resembling Yasha Asuras hiding within the blood clouds.
Blood Demon Child!
The Sea of Blood Demon God was the Blood God Child.
Beneath the Demon God were the Blood Demon Children.
The blood clouds rolled and demon shadows loomed; it was unknown how many Demon Infants and Children there were. In just a month’s time, the Blood Sea had swept across the world, reaping the fruits of its advance through the Cultivation Realm.
Although they had not succeeded in destroying the world, there were still many who slipped through the net, scattered in various places. However, major forces like the Corpse Resolution Seven Sects and the Five Palaces of White Jade had already been destroyed.
With this, the force of the Blood Sea was established, who could stand against it?
“Destiny!”
Meng Fuyao sighed again, rising with his sword, his gaze sweeping through the endless blood clouds, as if he caught glimpses of a few familiar figures, but they seemed both real and unreal, exceptionally strange.
“Roar!!!”
The Black Tortoise Palace True Spirit let out a roar, treading the vacuum as it rose, taking up a defensive stance.
Not just the Black Tortoise, but around the Blood Sea, even in the dome of the sky, True Spirit formations were in operation.
The Azure Dragon in the east raised its head high, the White Tiger in the west let out a roar, the Vermilion Bird in the southern expanse spread its wings, and the Kylin in the center dominated.
The Five Spirit Array formation was completed, guarding strictly.
Then…
“Roar!!!”
In the midst of the blood clouds, something unknown roared, and then the entire blood cloud roiled, blanketing the sky, rushing towards the Five Spirit Five Elements Formation.
It was imminent, a confrontation of life and death.
The dense blood clouds struck the formation, the five True Spirits roared with rage, divine light and thunder streaked across, sweeping away countless Demon Children, reducing them to ash.
However, above the Demon Children were the Demon Infants acting as the fiends. Even the Five Elements Divine Thunder found it hard to inflict fatal damage. Over a hundred Demon Infants, leading countless Demon Children, fought fiercely with the Divine beasts of the Five Palaces, the True Spirits of the formation, with some even breaking into the formation, only to be intercepted by the personnel of the Twelve Tower.
Fight, fight, fight, blood stained in all directions, chaos reigning between heaven and earth.
And at that moment…
“Boom!”
A stream of blood light, a demonic flow, like a falling meteor, fiercely rushed towards the Blood Sea.
“Hmm!?”
Meng Fuyao’s eyes narrowed, and he immediately rose with his sword.
But unexpectedly…
“Bang!”
With a clang, the mighty sword shattered, revealing the figure of a Sword Cultivator; blood spilled from the corner of his mouth, and he could not help but cry out in shock, “How can this be!?”
Within the blood light, within the flow of demons, there was a clearly visible human figure, dressed in white, with white hair, like an exiled immortal.
It was an Ancient Immortal Corpse Body, the residue of a great Daolic power!
What was the Corpse Body of an Ancient Immortal from the Mysterious Heaven Sect doing, coming with the demonic flow?
Could it be…
“Demon-locking Tower!”
“The seals have been broken?”
Among the exclamations, the Immortal Corpse once again transformed into blood light and a demonic flow, piercing straight through the Five Spirit Array, drilling into the boundless Blood Sea.
Once the Immortal Corpse Body entered, the Blood Sea churned violently, the furious waves rising to the heavens before pouring into the Corpse Body.
Subsequently, a young cultivator with striking white hair and blood-stained clothes appeared in the midst of the Blood Sea.
The Immortal Corpse Body, endowed with the power of the Blood Sea, was further emboldened with the might of the Demon God.
Even while employing Corpse Resolution Demon Magic, with the Demon Artifact as his body, he could not lightly move the Map of the Blood Sea, and if he wished to test the strategies of his opponent, he still needed to take on a form, to ensure safety.
“The situation has come to this, and you’re still not taking action?”
The Blood Demon controlled the Immortal Corpse, watching his opponents with a cold eye.
Within the grand formation, atop White Jade Mountain, cultivators remained seated and unmoving.
“Good!!!”
Seeing this, the Blood Demon wasted no more words. With a wave of his hand in the air, the Blood Sea tumbled and condensed into a demon blade that resembled a bloody scorpion.
The Blood-Transforming Divine Blade!
The Demon Soldier reappears!
With the momentum of the Blood Sea formed, even if the enemy were to break the formation, they would be no more than a homeless dog, at best fleeing in a wretched state, never to reverse the situation.
In such a case, what was there to worry about?
Kill!
The Blood Demon drew his blade and leapt forth to attack; a slice of blood-moon blade light spun into the formation, cleaving towards the cultivator.
“Boom!!!”
The seated cultivator startled to his feet, Five Elements Five Colors, divine light like swords, collided with the blade edge of the Blood Demon, causing a heaven-shaking roar that made the mountains tremble and the Blood Sea churn.
An even match!
The Blood Sea Great Array, coupled with the demon corpse of an immortal, was truly terrifying.
But the Five Elements Spiritual Body, with its exceptionally strong foundation, empowered by centuries of accumulation, ten million magic artifacts, the art of Heavenly Crafts Natural Creation, and the power of the Spirit-Treasure Mech Armor, was also extremely formidable.
When the powerful clashed in extreme conflict, it resulted in an even match where, momentarily, neither side could gain the upper hand.
But it was only for a moment!
After one strike came another.
The Blood Demon raised his blade, arching like a crescent moon, seductively murderous in intent.
The Blood Sea Great Array, a vast display of myriad forms, provided an endless source of power.
The remnant skin of the immortal corpse, transformed into a Demon God, was as durable as the Indestructible Vajra.
Combined, why fear a fierce battle?
“Boom!!!”
Another strike, again the blade, the Blood Sea surged up mightily, and the force of the Demon God cleaved downwards.
Five Elements Five Colors, the divine light met it head-on, and although it managed to mitigate much of the demonic might, the remaining force was still horrific as it struck against the city of White Jade and assaulted the Five Elements Formation.
In the midst of the Blood Sea, the battle raged furiously!
Outside the Blood Sea, it was even more intense.
“Roar!!!”
True spirits howled in fury, Demon Infants shrieked, formations suppressing the blood clouds, blood clouds engulfing the formations.
Disciples of the Five Palaces, the masses from Twelve Tower, countless Demon Children and bizarre offspring fought until the sky darkened and the earth dimmed.
A great disaster for the world, blood stained the common people, who could escape?
“Boom!!!”
Another strike, the Blood Sea churned, further empowering the might of the Demon Blade.
The Five Colors Divine Light, struggling to hold on, shattered bit by bit, allowing the remaining force of the Demon Blade to strike the cultivator’s body.
Xu Yang was hit and fell back, retreating into the city of White Jade, within the formation of the Five Palaces, his body wreathed in wisps of blue smoke, countless magic artifacts reduced to ash.
The Map of the Blood Sea, a Sixth Order Demon Array, was indeed too terrifying.
Even combined with the demonic body of an immortal corpse, the power of the remnant skin of a great entity, the Ten Million Artifacts Level Spirit-Treasure Mech Armor, could hardly bear the strain, and after a drawn-out battle, it suffered severe damage.
Although there were more magic artifacts to use, compared to the endless momentum of the Blood Sea, the infinite power of all things, the accumulation of a hundred years of the city of White Jade was far too meager.
The inferiority was clear, and the victor soon to be decided.
The cultivator said nothing, instead turning to look outward, only to see the Five Palaces’ disciples fighting desperately, those in the Twelve Tower battling to the death, bodies and blood everywhere.
The Blood Demon approached with his blade, again uttering heart-piercing words.
“It seems, I overestimated you!” he said.
“All your bluster, in the end, is just that–bluster!”
“With the momentum of the Blood Sea formed, the power of the Demon Path is established.”
“Even if you were permitted to leave the formation now, you’d be nothing more than a defeated dog.”
“Better to convert to the Demon Path and join me in the Blood Sea. With your aptitude, you could be a true seed of the Demon Path, a Child of the Nether River!”
With those words, the Blood Sea’s waves surged, and as the Demon Blade pressed forward, a fatal situation was about to emerge.
“Ha!!!”
Seeing this scene, the cultivator laughed. “You asked me what I was waiting for?”
“Huh!?”
The Blood Demon paused in his steps, his heart filled with sudden unease and alarm.
But he saw the cultivator, with his hands clasped behind his back, say, “I am the Left Envoy of Jade Capital. Tell me, what am I waiting for?”
“!!!!!!!”
The Blood Demon’s pupils shrank, alarm bells went off in his head, and he felt a powerful premonition of imminent disaster, a sensation that pierced his soul.
Imminent disaster?
Where did this looming catastrophe come from?
With the Blood Sea’s momentum set, the rise of the Demon Path, who in this world could pose a threat?
Wait!
In this world?
In this world!
A moment of fright, a moment of clarity, a sense of the heavenly secret revealed.
The Blood Demon looked up, gazing skyward.
Looking up to the sky, above the Blood Sea, among the nine heavens…
“Boom!!!”
An enormous sound resonated, the heavens and earth trembled with might, all directions of the celestial sphere fractured.
The world broke apart, and the realms connected, a towering, majestic city built of white jade, akin to a Heavenly Palace, with the force of heaven and earth, broke through the space between realms, grandly manifesting above the nine heavens.
In the heavens—White Jade Capital!!!
