Chapter 371: Pressuring Again (2)
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
Although that was the case, Xu Yang did not hold back against the Red Lotus. The “Supreme Pure Great Cave True Scripture” transformed into the “Thunderbolt Jade Shu Scripture,” as the Clear Spirit Divine Light turned into thunderbolts and lightning, striking down fiercely, shattering the Red Lotus, eradicating everything.
At the same time…
In the World of Demonic Contamination, there are three Death Lands and nine Demon Realms.
Among the nine Demon Realms, there is one known as “Mountain of the Gloomy Spring!”
At this moment, a sudden calamity erupted within Mountain of the Gloomy Spring.
“Ahhhh!!!”
A scream of agony and distress resounded from deep beneath the ground, echoing throughout the entire valley.
Within the depths, from a pool of blood, one person collapsed to the ground, his form dissolving and distorting, with phantoms floating out and faces struggling to appear.
It was the Blood Demon!
Good and evil, like water and fire, are never compatible.
The Taoist True Scripture, through its reverse erosion, had not only destroyed his clone, the Red Lotus, but also affected the root of his very being, the Blood Seed.
Pain, pain, pain!
Madness, madness, madness!
The Taoist True Scripture, with its righteous power, like a malicious curse, brought endless agony and chaos.
In excruciating pain, his sanity began to crumble, and his already obscure sense of self-threatened to tear apart and shatter.
Just at this moment of life and death…
“Ahhhh!!!”
With a heart-wrenching shriek, the Blood Demon sprang up, transforming into a streak of blood, burrowing into the pool of blood in the cavern.
Within the cavern, the spring was as red as blood, with no end in sight.
The stream of blood penetrated deeply, escaping at high speed, instantly covering ten thousand miles.
At last…
“Pffft!!!”
The blood stream burst forth, arriving at a vast ocean, an endless sea of blood.
Within the Blood Sea, amidst the vast expanse, there hung a mysterious object, resembling a book or a scroll.
It was indeed the treasure of the Lust Realm, a supreme-grade Demon Artifact—Map of the Blood Sea!
“Roar!!!”
Within the scarlet bloodstream, a face with a human head emerged, roaring in agony as it charged towards the Demon Artifact.
Despite having been reborn a century ago, his growth had been extremely limited.
Because the enemy had cultivated the Five Elements Mysterious Spirit Admiring Eye of Heaven, foreseeing the unknown, controlling his every move, restricting his range of activities within the Demon Realm and Death Lands, he could not expand outward to seize resources for growth, only able to consume other demons within the Demon Realm and Death Lands to enhance his own power.
Although for demons, consuming their own kind is also a source of growth, those True Seeds of Heavenly Demons left from ancient times were not to be trifled with; at any moment, he could be reversed consumed and lose his mental clarity and rationality.
Therefore, even in the Demon Realm, his home field, he did not dare to act recklessly but had to tread cautiously and scheme for power.
But now…
That man once again forced him into a desperate situation, a situation without choice!
The Taoist True Scriptures, with their reverse pollution, had damaged the fruits of the Red Lotus and the very foundation of the Blood Demon.
Such a malicious curse, such terrible contamination, even if it could be suppressed, would leave a hidden danger and become a fatal flaw.
Although he was in the Gloomy Spring Demon Domain, he could retreat into the Blood Sea Death Land, but with that person’s means…
This Demon Domain Death Land might not be a place of peace and safety.
Therefore, he had no choice but to make a desperate attempt and turn to his last hope.
The root of Death Land, the highest-tier Demon Artifact—Map of the Blood Sea!
Even the Ancient Immortals and Integration Great Powers could not deal with it.
This was the only hope.
If he could control this supreme-grade Demon Artifact, then everything could be reversed.
“Gulp!”
The blood stream surged forward, plunging into the book.
Immediately after, the Blood Sea shook, Death Land trembled, causing waves to surge and furious tides to roar.
…
Three months later, at Righteous Qi Peak.
The nine Corpse Resolution Cultivators gathered, silently awaiting one’s arrival.
Meng Fuyao stood with his hands behind his back, silent and solemn.
Li Qiankun stood beside him, his expression grave and tinged with concern.
The three-month period had arrived, and today was the appointed time.
The Immortal, followed by the Confucian scholars and the Buddhist monks, the Five Palaces, the Seven Sects, and the Twelve Towers, joined forces to attack the Demon Realm.
Of the nine Demon Realms, subjugating just one would be enough to complete one’s merit and redeem karma for Ascension.
The plan of a thousand years, whether it would succeed or fail, all would be decided today.
Therefore, it was no wonder Li Qiankun harbored concerns.
Would the Blood Demon interfere?
Or avoid their sharp edge and let them leave?
In the midst of his worries…
A divine light arrived from beyond the skies, illuminating the interior of Righteous Qi Peak.
“Mountain of the Gloomy Spring!”
“Come!!”
Brief words, without superfluous explanation.
Seeing this, Meng Fuyao said no more. His mighty sword rose like a dragon and headed straight for the mountains beyond.
Li Qiankun and the others also employed their own techniques. The nine Corpse Resolution Cultivators rode on their Escape Light and sped toward the Death Land of the Demon Realm.
…
Three days later.
“Boom!!!”
A thunderous explosion shook the earth and mountains.
Meng Fuyao’s righteous energy was majestic, as with one sword, he cleaved a true demon that resembled a Jiao snake from the sky.
The true demon fell, crashing into a mountain and causing a hundred miles of terrain to shake. Dark streams of Demonic Qi bubbled furiously to the surface.
Meng Fuyao sheathed his sword and looked around. Although the battle was chaotic, the situation was largely under control.
Li Qiankun and the other Nascent Soul Corpse Resolution Cultivators were fighting with demon creatures and steadily gaining the upper hand.
The nine great Demon Realms, the Gloomy Spring Blood Valley, was it truly this easy?
Meng Fuyao’s brows furrowed tightly, and he soared into the sky on his sword, heading deep into the gloomy valley.
Deep in the gloomy valley, it was crimson like blood, appearing like a deep abyss of a blood cave!
He dived down, and upon entering the cave, he saw an underground spring.
Inside the spring, blood gushed forth, filled with ominous and bizarre energies.
The Spring of the Gloomy Spring!
The heart of the Demon Realm!
Meng Fuyao’s eyes tightened, and the pressure suddenly increased.
As the heart of the Demon Realm, the concentration of Demonic Qi here was not something the outside world could compare with. Even though he was a Soul-transforming Corpse Resolution Cultivator bearing an ancient Immortal Artifact, he still felt considerable pressure.
His righteous energy surged like a dragon, with the sword circling his body, keeping the filthy Demonic Qi at bay.
Only then did he dare to advance and come above the blood spring.
Above the blood spring stood a single person, watching coldly.
It was Xu Yang!
He had been there for quite some time.
Three days earlier, as soon as Xu Yang arrived at Mountain of the Gloomy Spring, he unleashed the Five Colors Divine Light and charged straight into the Spring of the Gloomy Spring Cave to search for traces of the Blood Demon, leaving the peripheral demon creatures of the Demon Realm for Meng Fuyao and the others to deal with.
To this, Meng Fuyao had no objections at all; after all, they had come here to eradicate demons and perform meritorious deeds.
However…
Meng Fuyao approached and looked at the surging blood spring: “It is said that this Gloomy Mountain Blood Spring is connected to the Blood Sea Death Land. He must have retreated to the Blood Sea Death Land.”
“Blood Sea Death Land?”
Xu Yang smiled lightly but said no more.
Seeing this, Meng Fuyao couldn’t grasp what he was thinking and could only share his conjecture: “It seems that although he has resurrected, his strength has not recovered, half of the Blood Seed being sealed, and being confined by you within the Demon Realm, unable to stir up trouble. Even after a century, he has not recovered and can only avoid our edge.”
Xu Yang chuckled lightly: “That does make sense.”
“…”
Meng Fuyao couldn’t help but frown upon seeing his casual demeanor: “Does fellow daoist intend to explore the Blood Sea Death Land?”
Xu Yang shook his head: “I have no such intention.”
“That’s good!”
Upon hearing this, Meng Fuyao also breathed a sigh of relief.
The three great Death Lands, the pinnacle Demon Artifacts.
Both artifacts and cultivators have their corresponding tiers.
Fourth-tier artifacts are Spiritual Treasures, corresponding to Nascent Soul Cultivators.
Fifth-tier are Lower-grade Immortal Artifacts, corresponding to Soul-transforming Cultivators.
Sixth-tier are Middle-grade Immortal Artifacts, corresponding to Returned Void Cultivators.
Seventh-tier are Superior Immortal Artifacts, corresponding to Integration Cultivators.
Eighth-tier are Top-Grade Immortal Artifacts, corresponding to Mahayana True Immortals.
The three great Demon Artifacts are all supreme, equivalent to three Mahayana Heavenly Demons.
Even the ancient immortals could not do much about these extremely powerful artifacts that were beyond their own level. They could only forcefully seal them and left them as the three great Death Lands of today.
If the ancient immortals were helpless, there is even less need to mention others.
Even at the height of Corpse Resolution Immortal Law, Corpse Resolution Cultivators only dared to exterminate the nine great Demon Realms and not take half a step into the three great Death Lands.
Such is their might!
Now, as they sweep through the Gloomy Spring Demon Domain, although they have not seen the Blood Demon, they have slain quite a number of demon creatures.
As long as they sweep through another Demon Realm, accumulating complete merit will not be difficult.
Therefore, he really feared that Xu Yang would get the notion to pursue into the Blood Sea Death Land for investigation, creating unnecessary complications and uncertainties.
Fortunately, Xu Yang had no such plans, and he himself could breathe easier.
Seeing Meng Fuyao’s relieved appearance, Xu Yang shook his head and softly said, “The Blood Demon seeks to regain its strength. In this Gloomy Spring Demon Domain, it has swallowed many demon creatures. To accumulate full merit, you can sweep through another domain.”
Meng Fuyao nodded: “With fellow daoist at the helm, as long as we do not enter the Death Land, all other places are within reach.”
Xu Yang smiled: “Slaughtering demons is not difficult; Ascension is the key.”
“Oh?”
Meng Fuyao’s gaze sharpened: “Fellow daoist means…”
“Not acting now doesn’t mean I won’t act later.”
Xu Yang’s words were suggestive, and he chuckled lightly: “If you trust me, fellow daoist, what about holding an Ascension Conference at White Dragon Ridge?”
“Ascension Conference?”
Meng Fuyao muttered to himself, looking at Xu Yang, and after a moment, he nodded: “Let’s do as fellow daoist says!”
