Because Xu Zii brought these people in themselves, no matter what happens, they can’t extricate themselves from the death of Yao Yang.
"Brother Shi, don’t mind it. Shouldn’t we make so sacrifices to help you ascend as the leader of the Blood Clan?" Xu Zii said with a smile.
"Good, I’ll rember that," Shi Ya nodded slightly and said indifferently.
"Tomorrow there will be a baptism, which will be the closest opportunity to the Myriad Dao Red Lotus.
Your chance only cos once."
"Then let’s go to the Forbidden Land tonight to have a look; we won’t try to break in," Xu Zii said.
Since the Divine Emperor’s actions were very decisive, he did not leave any trace after killing the enemy Yao Yang.
After spending an afternoon on the mountain peak, Shi Ya found so attire from the Divine Bloodline for Xu Zii and the other two to put on.
It was still a red robe, except the embroidery on the cuff was purple.
As dusk fell, the group left the mountain peak and headed towards the inner parts of the Blood Clan.
Since the decline of the Divine Bloodline, those who had previously associated with them also kept their distance, fearing to provoke misunderstandings with the other two lineages.
Thus, when the trio walked within the Blood Clan, not a single person ca over to greet them.
Fortunately, no one ca over to kick them while they were down and find a sense of superiority; Xu Zii could also feel the decline of the Divine Bloodline nowadays.
Passing through several corridors, the expanse of the Blood Clan was boundless.
Along the way, Xu Zii also saw many people of all sorts and conditions.
Among them, the cultivation of the Blood Clan was quite different from that of ordinary beings.
Instead of absorbing Spiritual Energy or the Essence of Sun and Moon, they absorbed blood.
Thanks to their superior physical constitution, they could completely absorb the abilities from the blood.
Of course, in the Way of Inquiry towards Enlightennt, all beings are the sa; in the later stages, strength alone was no longer enough to break through the Vein Gate.
After about half an hour, they finally reached what the Blood Clan called the Forbidden Land.
The Forbidden Land was lush with deep forests and grass, and there were clan mbers constantly patrolling around, making it impossible to get close.
Looking up, the walls of the Forbidden Land were nearly a hundred ters tall, soaring into the sky, and one could not see inside at all.
It was unknown what material these walls were made of, as they were entirely a netherworldly purple color.
Emitting a faint purple glow, the walls gave off an oppressive feeling.
Xu Zii observed the surroundings for a whole circle, ultimately finding nothing, and decided to wait until the next day to look inside the Forbidden Land.
Because the Divine Bloodline had an entry slot, Shi Ya decided to report Xu Zii’s na for it.
The essential item for the baptism was the Myriad Dao Red Lotus.
It was said that the Blood Clan’s baptism used the Myriad Dao Red Lotus to harness the power of the Netherworld Blood Sea, then transform the bodies of the clanspeople.
Although this endeavor would consu considerable energy, the effects were also pronounced.
It was said that only once every hundred years would the Blood Clan have such a baptism.
If not for Yao Yang’s reminder yesterday, Shi Ya would have even forgotten about this event.
...
Without a word overnight, the next day, as dawn was just breaking, many Blood Clan mbers were already up and gathering.
Today was the day of the baptism, and according to the rules, it was also the only chance for the clanspeople to enter the Forbidden Land of the Blood Clan.
Although the ones to benefit most from the baptism were the selected clanspeople, the others who entered the Forbidden Land would also catch the baptism’s afterglow.
The history of the Blood Clan was very ancient, but in a broader sense, they were not considered a large tribe.
Apart from so clanspeople who were abroad, almost all the young generation of both Blood Clan lineages were gathered here.
Since the baptism benefited the younger generation, there was no need for anyone other than the eight Clan Elders to enter the Forbidden Land.
The vast army had already set out for the Forbidden Land, and the gates to the Forbidden Land had been opened.
Atop the Naless Peak, Shi Ya looked back at a group of children, the remnants of the Divine Bloodline.
He solemnly said, "Wait here. If your brother can return alive, he will beco the king of the Blood Clan."
A group of children bid farewell on the Naless Peak, lacking even the qualifications to enter the Forbidden Land.
Shi Ya turned around and, together with Xu Zii and three others, walked towards the Forbidden Land.
"Feiyang, brother, don’t leave again when you co back this ti," Shi Ya said.
"I won’t leave. Besides, I have nowhere else to go," Ye Feiyang said with a big laugh on the side.
The few of them chatted casually on the way and finally arrived at the entrance to the Forbidden Land, where they joined the long line of people entering through the gates.
"Shi family’s boy, has the Divine Bloodline chosen its candidate for the baptism?"
The four had just arrived when they saw an elder on the side inquiring.
The elder was dressed in light cyan traditional clothing, with balding spots on both sides of his head, and the remaining hair was all graying.
"He is one of our Blood Clan’s eight Clan Elders, from the Demon Summit Peak," Shi Ya whispered in introduction.
"He is an elder of the Demon Bloodline," Shi Ya added.
"The Third Clan Elder has taken much trouble. We have already selected our person for the ritual," Shi Ya said with a light smile, pointing at Xu Zii.
That Third Clan Elder sized up Xu Zii and then frowned slightly, asking, "Who is he? Why have I never seen him before?"
"Since our Divine Bloodline has declined, the Third Clan Elder probably hasn’t paid as much attention," Shi Ya replied with a smile.
The Third Clan Elder’s face showed a hint of embarrassnt, after all, the elders were also at fault for this issue.
The decline of the Divine Bloodline was a topic not allowed to be ntioned within the Blood Clan.
"Since that is the case, let him fall in line. The rest of you join the main force and go in," the Third Clan Elder said without delving further, waving his hand.
Shi Ya nodded, and led the three from the Divine Emperor lineage to queue up and walk into the Forbidden Land.
Xu Zii also stood beside the Third Clan Elder, where many young people of his age were standing.
These were likely mbers from the other two bloodlines, probably waiting to enter together once everyone had gathered.
Seeing Xu Zii walking over, a young man beside him looked over with scorn.
He said, "This ritual happens only once every century; giving a slot to you is such a waste.
Kid, are you willing to sell the slot to us?"
Hearing the young man’s words, Xu Zii asked with a smile, "Sure, what will you exchange for it?"
"You could gain our friendship, how about that?" the young man laughed heartily.
"What use is a pile of dog shit for friendship?
Aren’t you afraid of sullying your hands?" Xu Zii said.
"Kid, don’t be ungrateful. You should know the situation your Divine Bloodline is in right now," the young man said in a cold, threatening tone.
"I’ll rember you," Xu Zii said, patting the young man’s shoulder with a light laugh.
The young man’s brow furrowed, ready to erupt in anger, but seeing the Third Clan Elder nearby, he ultimately held back.
...…
Subsequently, several more clan mbers joined the line. Xu Zii took a brief look; there were about thirty or more people.
Once everyone had arrived, the Third Clan Elder finally led the group towards the Forbidden Land.
"After we enter, stick close to . It’s not safe inside," the Third Clan Elder warned.
