Blood Fiend Qi is a unique form of baleful energy that can only be born in places where blood path power is extrely dense, though at tis it can also accumulate on a person.
Simply put, it cos from being stained with too much blood and bearing countless killing karma.
Zombies feed on blood, refine baleful energy to grow stronger, and blood fiend is a perfectly compatible corpse nourishing resource for zombie type beings, with the strongest overall applicability.
Almost any variety of zombie can refine blood fiend qi to enhance itself.
Of course.
Spirit corpses are an exception. Baleful energy would only erode their newly ford spiritual intelligence. They are more suited to absorbing the spiritual qi of heaven and earth for cultivation.
The Lunar Yin Fiend Corpse and the Thunder Corpse under Wang Yu’s control had always consud relatively few corpse path treasures and resources. This was also related to the fact that he had not deliberately searched for them, yet their combat effectiveness had always been considerable.
However.
In terms of blood nourishnt, the quality had been extrely high ever since their birth. Every day they fed to fullness on third rank human blood, sotis even to the point of being stuffed, and with the assistance of the Yin Nurturing Coffin.
Their growth speed was not slow either. When they previously went to the Burial Pit Secret Realm, the Two Corpses gained quite a few benefits, and their accumulated foundation was actually very solid.
Now that blood fiend qi was being infused into their bodies, they beca much more replete. This was especially true for the Lunar Yin Fiend Corpse, which was itself a mutant species born from lunar baleful qi.
At this mont, many blood patterns erged on its body surface, so Wang Yu used corpse refinent techniques to safeguard it. The Thunder Corpse, on the other hand, was rather unremarkable. Perhaps all of its potential had already been expended during its transformation into a Thunder Corpse.
This ti, it was simply absorbing blood fiend qi, unlike the Lunar Yin Fiend Corpse, which underwent multiple changes.
Wang Yu quietly refined the corpses, while his own cultivation did not stop either. It was the sa as before at Crimson Snow Mountain.
At most, the effect of the Myriad Spirits Blood Essence had weakened sowhat.
Snowjade had strong objections to this.
Because Crimson Snow Mountain was suitable for her cultivation, while deep within the Blood Demon Sea she could not even use the Profound Ice Bed. Every ti Wang Yu went out, she also had to watch over those two zombies that were frantically absorbing blood fiend qi.
There was not the slightest sign of them stopping, like bottomless pits that could never be filled no matter how much was poured in.
blood fiend qi’s personal wishes were not actually important.
Besides, she only complained verbally a few tis and did not make too much of a fuss. After Wang Yu thoroughly ruffled the fur on her head, she finally restrained herself.
Ti passed.
The day when the Blood Abyss trial would end drew ever closer.
On this day.
Winds and clouds surged over the Blood Demon Sea. Although Wang Yu had descended very deep, he was cultivating at the edge and had no intention of getting involved again.
This session’s Blood Infant Fruit had already been claid.
He truly had no desire to compete for it.
Yet unexpectedly, this gave him the chance to observe the final battle. While he was in quiet cultivation, the sky was suddenly covered by black clouds stretching for a hundred li.
A massive phantom of a black bell could be clearly seen even from afar. Behind that black bell was Xie Xie’an’s strangely grinning face. His right hand grasped the black bell, and with just a slight shake.
An invisible sound wave rapidly spread outward.
It seed as though nothing was heard, yet in reality everyone had already been affected by this power. The group that surrounded and attacked Xie Xie’an numbered at least over three hundred people, all with formidable strength.
Among them were many direct disciples of the Nine Peaks, as well as geniuses from great families.
But when facing a Spirit Transformation spiritual treasure, even though the power Xie Xie’an activated was less than one percent, they still fell into the Blood Demon Sea like dumplings.
They did not die.
Yet all of them suffered extrely severe soul injuries. Their divine sense was nearly drained dry, and their minds were also heavily damaged. If they could not obtain corresponding treasures afterward to promptly adjust their condition.
More than half would end up crippled.
Such ruthless thods made even Wang Yu secretly smack his lips. This was truly madness.
After Xie Xie’an’s actions, this Blood Abyss trial could be said to have suffered catastrophic casualties, especially among the master disciple faction. The direct disciples of the Nine Peaks were all Nascent Soul cultivators.
They were not so easy to placate.
And yet, after committing such a heinous cri, Xie Xie’an acted as if nothing had happened. He sat cross legged in the void, as though he were comprehending the true intent of Rakshasa.
A killing intent no weaker than the Asura killing dao rose from his body. Wang Yu was extrely familiar with this state. It was the appearance of having just entered the mind path, having just stepped into the first realm, the Pure Serenity Realm.
“That makes sense.”
Both the Rakshasa True Demon Scripture and the Asura Slaughter Sacred Scripture contained aspects of mind path cultivation intent. After Xie Xie’an completed them, it was not strange that he could use this to enter the path.
One could only say that he truly lived up to being soone chosen by old monsters. He indeed had talent in cultivating the Rakshasa demonic path. After obtaining the Spirit Transformation spiritual treasure, the Heavenly Demon Bell, the compatibility was simply too high.
This could not help but make Wang Yu think of another Spirit Transformation spiritual treasure.
The Asura Slaughter Sword. In theory, the probability of this treasure falling into Jin Miaoshan’s hands was the highest. It was just that he had never heard her ntion it, so she likely had not yet t the requirents to wield it.
If Xie Xie’an was naturally compatible.
Then Jin Miaoshan had forcibly stepped into this path. She had not the slightest talent in the Asura killing path. Otherwise, even with the resources of Golden Abundance Tower behind her, she would not have been influenced by killing intent.
She had not even managed to forge a single Asura Killing Heart.
With such a vast gap between the two, being unable to control such a divine sword was only natural. At this mont, when Wang Yu thought of it, a trace of wild desire inevitably arose.
“Once this battle ends, the trial is more or less over.”
After so thought, Wang Yu did not go to loot the corpses. It was not because his sense of morality was too strong, but because the items on these people were rather sensitive.
With Xie Xie’an standing in front and drawing everyone’s attention.
Wang Yu could instead remain much more at ease.
After witnessing this crushing battle, Wang Yu spent the final few months without successfully advancing the Twin Corpses. They only reached the peak of the middle stage of third rank.
However, by using the effect of the One Origin Gourd, he accumulated several thousand Blood Fiend Crystals. After leaving and nurturing them for a few more years, that would be about enough.
This Blood Abyss trial had basically achieved his objectives.
In the thirty eighth year and eighth month of Wang Yu’s life as an elder, his cultivation advanced by another large margin. His upper limit of mana continued to rise, increasing by nearly six hundred unit.
Reaching three thousand five hundred ninety three unit, he took a firm step within the eighth layer of Core Formation. There was still a considerable distance from the peak of six thousand unit. After leaving a treasure land like the Blood Abyss, such a rapid rate of improvent would no longer be possible.
Blood Gorge. At the entrance of the Blood Abyss.
This place had gathered quite a few people after a long absence, yet no matter how one looked at it, it still seed sparse. Their positions were scattered, so showed confusion in their eyes, while others were impatient to leave as soon as possible.
When Wang Yu arrived, he saw Wei Hao waving to him from afar.
The Wei clan had neither participated in the struggle for the Corrosion Yin Hall nor joined the battle for the Blood Infant Fruit. They had only lost one cultivator at the early Core Formation stage, and their group formation was almost the sa as when they first entered.
However, the benefits they obtained were considerable. Most of them had advanced several minor realms. In particular, Wei Shanze was a strange case. He had neither a magic treasure nor divine abilities.
Yet his cultivation had risen to the peak of the third layer of Core Formation. Judging by his montum, once they left, he would be able to break through to the fourth layer of Core Formation. He was truly an oddity.
In just thirty years, he had cast off the frail period right after forming his core.
No wonder the Wei clan had long been rumored to produce clever people. Their ability to seek benefits and avoid danger was indeed impressive.
“Brother Wang.”
“Junior Brother Wei.”
After the joint hunt of Jiang Mingxin and his group, the relationship between the two had grown closer. eting again now, the atmosphere was very harmonious as they waited for the Blood Abyss entrance to open.
Wang Yu naturally brought up the matter of the Holy token. Wei Hao was very straightforward. Without asking further questions, he took out the token and handed it to Wang Yu.
“Junior Brother Wei, are you not curious about the purpose of this item?”
Wei Hao calmly shook his head.
“What is mine will co to sooner or later. What is not mine cannot be forced. Brother Wang should refrain from telling its secrets, lest this junior brother give rise to greed.”
Hearing this, Wang Yu could not help but laugh.
“I do not know what this token is used for either. I am rely acting on soone else’s request. As for you, your mindset is very clear. The Core Formation realm is definitely not your limit.”
“Many thanks for Brother Wang’s kind words.”
After speaking, the two exchanged smiles.
There was an unspoken tacit understanding between them. This left Wei Shanze, who was watching from behind, completely baffled. He scratched his head, looking at Wei Hao and then at the handso and extraordinary Wang Yu.
He did not rember his cousin having such preferences.
The waiting ti was rather long. More people arrived one after another, but even so, the total number was definitely less than five hundred. This count even included cultivators who had remained inside from the previous cycle.
From this alone, one could see how high the mortality rate was.
After Yan Ling’s group also arrived at the Blood Gorge, Wang Yu noticed that Song Yun was not among them. Moreover, not a single one of the Cold Blood sect mbers who had left with him had returned.
There was an eighty percent chance that they had died at Xie Xie'an’s hands. Wang Yu only sighed lightly at this.
The most frightening thing for a person was lacking self awareness and refusing to heed advice.
Dying like that was dying in vain.
Song Yun’s filial piety was comndable, but his brain was lacking.
“Your Highness Yan Ling.”
“Daoist Friend Wang.”
Seeing that Wang Yu had co over from the Wei clan’s group, Yan Ling imdiately understood. It seed that he had already obtained the token. She took the initiative to leave her team and set up a soundproof barrier.
“Since you have obtained the Holy token, I will speak frankly.”
“Please do.”
Wang Yu assud a listening posture. Yan Ling pondered for a mont, organized her thoughts, and then spoke.
“This token is the key to opening the Holy Lord Heavenly Palace. Have you ever heard of the title Holy Lord?”
Holy Lord. Heavenly Palace.
With such an exalted title, it should not belong to an unknown figure. Given the amount of ancient texts Wang Yu had read, he should have heard of it.
But the truth was that he was ignorant.
“I ask for your guidance.”
“The Holy Lord was of demon race origin. Their true form was an Ice Phoenix. They were active in the era after the destruction of the ancient immortal dynasty. Before the Taiyin Sect ruled an era, it was a ti when the demon race flourished.
“It is said that Heavenly Palace once collected the supre treasures of an entire realm and was built within the Endless Ice Plains. The Holy token in your hand is both a map and a key.
“Jiang Mingxin insisted on approaching because he knew that I possessed an indispensable item needed to open the gate.”
Ice Phoenix Holy Lord.
Wang Yu frowned in thought. A hegemon of an era was undoubtedly a Spirit Transformation cultivator, perhaps even a peak existence among them. Such a dangerous place, yet the two of them dared to sche over it.
That was truly the temperant of demonic cultivators. They feared neither heaven nor earth and focused single mindedly on opportunities.
As for the indispensable item in Yan Ling’s possession.
Wang Yu did not ask further. He still had a sense of proper distance, and moreover, after the Xue Ying incident, Yan Ling’s impression of him had worsened quite a bit.
When the ti ca, she would naturally explain it to him.
“Are there any other Holy Tokens?”
“Of course there are. It is said that there are seventy two Holy Tokens in total. Each Holy Token can bring three people into the Holy Lord Heavenly Palace. Most of them are still in the hands of the demon race.
“The two tokens you and I hold were both obtained by accident in the Severed Boundary Mountain Range. That is why I chose to cooperate with Jiang Mingxin. Among the competitors, the majority will be demon race cultivators.”
“So that is how it is.”
With this explanation, Wang Yu was able to sort out the situation.
After thinking for a mont, he asked again.
“Is there any restriction on cultivation level for entering the Heavenly Palace?”
“No.”
Speaking of this, Yan Ling could only give a bitter smile. This ant they would have to compete with Nascent Soul cultivators, and there was even a high chance of encountering Spirit Transformation cultivators.
And she had only just reached Core Formation.
“Then what about the opening ti?”
“The Holy Lord Heavenly Palace opens once every thousand years. Each opening lasts for a hundred years. You can enter at any ti during that period. There are still two hundred years until the next opening.
“This information is no secret among Nascent Soul cultivators. That ans this path is full of danger. Many Nascent Soul cultivators without Holy Tokens will resort to ambushes.”
Wang Yu nodded. Two hundred years was already a long ti, enough for him to break through to the Nascent Soul stage before taking action. It was just unclear whether Yan Ling would have the chance.
Since opening the gate required not only the token but also another essential item, and since the Heavenly Palace could be entered at any ti during the hundred years of opening, it proved that this other item was not unique.
If Yan Ling’s cultivation was insufficient, he could find a way to obtain another of the required items.
Of course.
This was still far off. Keeping it in mind for now was enough.
He had already planned to go to the Endless Ice Plains to cultivate. News of the Holy Lord Heavenly Palace struck right at his heart.
After returning, he would check ancient records. He also needed more information regarding the Nascent Soul breakthrough, so he could handle everything at once.
“I understand. If we can form a Nascent Soul in two hundred years, then we will go together.”
“That is exactly what I was thinking. Core Formation cultivators truly are not qualified to touch this kind of opportunity.”
After the two finished talking, the entrance to the Blood Gorge happened to open again. The pitch black vortex suddenly expanded, and many cultivators rushed out impatiently.
Wang Yu deliberately stayed behind. Seeing no sign of Xie Xie’an coming out, he could only give up with regret.
He wanted to see whether this person still retained his rationality.
The rationality ntioned here referred to whether his personality had been altered by the power of the Rakshasa Path, not whether he had gone mad.
Having had contact before, Wang Yu understood Xie Xie’an’s character to so extent.
If they could talk, that would naturally be best.
From the current situation, it seed that the old monsters behind the scenes did not wish for Xie Xie’an to be attacked by all the forces behind those people. Given the bloodshed he had committed, punishnt was unavoidable.
Moreover, not only did he fail to see Xie Xie’an, he did not even see Zhuo Shouyun. He guessed that Zhuo Shouyun had used a disguise technique, mingled with the crowd, and taken the opportunity to leave.
“Truly boring.”
He muttered to himself.
Wang Yu raised his head and looked at the thick blood clouds in the sky. After thinking for a mont, he still did nothing. As his mana circulated, he transford into an auroral light and fled toward the Blood Abyss entrance.
Unexpectedly.
At the critical mont, a streak of blood light descended from the sky and transford before his eyes into a giant that reached from heaven to earth.
Wang Yu recognized the identity at a glance and hurriedly lowered his head in salute.
“Junior Wang Yu greets Blood Axe Demon Lord.”
Among the Nascent Soul cultivators of the sect who were known publicly, he had deliberately morized their appearances. There was no way he would mistake or misidentify them.
The sche arranged around Xie Xie’an also did not seem like Blood Axe’s handiwork. His reputation as a reckless brute was well known throughout the Crimson Kite region.
So there were other Nascent Soul ancestors.
Judging by close relations, the Blood Nether Three Demons were the most likely.
“You are quite good. Your Body Refining is like that of a real man.”
The mont Blood Axe Demon Lord spoke.
Wang Yu felt as if his ears were about to explode, yet he did not dare show it. He lowered his head with an awkward smile.
“This is a Body Refinent Blessed Land I discovered in my early years. If you have ti, go take a look.”
A talisman paper engraved with a map route floated down.
Wang Yu accepted it with delight.
He imdiately realized that the talisman that descended from the heavens last ti had also been Blood Axe’s handiwork.
“Wang Yu thanks the Demon Lord for his appreciation.”
