“What exactly happened at Jiuxiao Sect that they’ve gotten entangled with Gengu? It doesn’t make sense scientifically,” Lin Fan pondered as he landed on the ground after leaving Yuegong Sect.
Could it be that Liang Yichu was invaded by Gengu? Could it be that Sect Leader Han was also invaded?
What exactly is Gengu thinking? If it merely wants to gather its body parts, why attack sects? Why not just search quietly? Why go through all this trouble?
From Lin Fan’s detective perspective, there must be an earth-shattering secret hidden here.
However, no matter how earth-shattering the secret, under Lin Fan’s detective gaze, it would eventually be exposed, revealing its core truth.
Xuanhuang Realm split in two, Gengu’s body… Wait, could there be a connection? It seems I need to ponder this carefully.
“Whatever, I should first sort out my gains from this trip.”
In Lin Fan’s opinion, his gains were quite substantial this time. His cultivation had advanced a major stage, entering the Xiao Tianwei realm, and he wouldn’t need much time to reach Da Tianwei.
He was quite interested in the Chains of Rules.
However, his current cultivation level wasn’t sufficient, and he wasn’t qualified to comprehend the Chains of Rules yet.
Just thinking about how Li Yuanqi, who had comprehended twelve Chains of Rules, was so impressive made Lin Fan envious.
Looking at the huge arm of the Blood Demon Emperor in his backpack, Lin Fan’s lips curled into a smile.
“Heavenly Furnace.”
Lin Fan threw the arm of the Blood Demon Emperor into the Heavenly Furnace and began to refine it.
Behind that blood-red stone gate must be a world, though it should be quite different from Xuanhuang Realm. When he had the opportunity to enter it in the future, he would certainly take a tour.
“Buzzing…”
The Heavenly Furnace refined all things, and in the blink of an eye, the arm of the Blood Demon Emperor was refined.
“Ding, Congratulations on obtaining five drops of the Blood Demon Emperor’s essence blood.”
“Blood Demon Emperor’s Essence Blood: Essence blood containing infinite power.”
Looking at the few drops of essence blood floating in the air, Lin Fan’s lips curled into a smile. He wondered how effective it would be.
“Swallow.”
At this moment, Lin Fan sat cross-legged, drawing the five drops of Blood Demon Emperor’s essence blood into his mouth, then began circulating the “Blood Sea Demon Cultivation Technique,” a cultivation technique that had unique uses for Lin Fan.
Blood God, that guy, wanted a shortcut and didn’t cultivate using the essence blood of fierce beasts, which was a lower approach.
These “Blood Demon Emperor’s Essence Blood” contained infinite power. Lin Fan wondered how many layers of the “Blood Sea Demon Cultivation Technique” it could push forward.
Lin Fan’s goal was to cultivate the “Blood Sea Demon Cultivation Technique” to the realm of blood-drop regeneration. However, judging from the current situation, there was still some distance to go.
After swallowing the essence blood, a surge of blood energy spread out, and the “Blood Sea Demon Cultivation Technique” operated at its limit, absorbing the powerful blood force from the five drops of essence blood.
Time passed.
Who knows how long had passed, Lin Fan opened and closed his eyes, a beam of sharp light flashing, and a smile curled his lips.
“As expected, it’s indeed overpowering.”
The Blood Demon Emperor truly deserved to be the overlord of an unknown world. Without the “Gengu Arm,” Lin Fan would likely have been crushed to death by him.
Just one arm and five drops of essence blood forcibly pushed the “Blood Sea Demon Cultivation Technique” to the sixth layer.
Regeneration of severed limbs.
That guy, Blood God, spent decades and slaughtered countless people just to barely reach the fourth layer, the internal organ displacement stage. Now, the sixth layer in Lin Fan’s opinion was even more overpowering.
Although “Regeneration of severed limbs” required a massive amount of life force and true energy, for Lin Fan, these two things were not in short supply.
The Wutong Divine Tree constantly absorbed the world’s true energy, and the Wutong Divine Tree’s vast life force was the most powerful Lin Fan had ever seen, even surpassing the Phoenix he had seen in the Hell of Flames.
Good, very good…
At this moment, Lin Fan nodded with great satisfaction. Although the “Gengu Arm” made his strength overwhelming, in Lin Fan’s view, the “Gengu Arm” was still part of a great being’s body. To become powerful, he could only rely on himself.
He just didn’t know how overwhelmingly powerful the body cultivation technique “Gengu Immortality” would become when cultivated to the extreme. It made Lin Fan look forward to it greatly.
At this moment, Lin Fan took out the “Blood Stone Gate” from his backpack. In an instant, a towering stone gate, awe-inspiring and majestic, appeared before him. Observing it up close, the blood energy surged on its surface, shaking the soul.
“Blood Stone Gate: an object that connects to the Blood Realm, born from the Blood Realm, containing infinite mysteries.”
Li Yuanqi used a sacrificial method to summon the Blood Demon Emperor, suppressing the ages. Lin Fan wondered if he could also perform a sacrifice to summon the Blood Demon Emperor into the world and then suppress him fiercely. Would that be feasible?
However, Lin Fan also noticed that apart from connecting to the Blood Realm, the “Blood Stone Gate” had no other uses. It couldn’t even suppress enemies, so Lin Fan wasn’t particularly interested in it.
Lin Fan wanted to throw the “Blood Stone Gate” into the Heavenly Furnace for refining but was also afraid that the Heavenly Furnace might refine the “Blood Stone Gate” into a pile of useless stones, which would be a loss not worth the gain.
In the future, he still needed to summon the Blood Demon Emperor from the “Blood Stone Gate” and suppress him fiercely. How could he let it go so easily?
If the Blood Demon Emperor were completely refined into essence blood, who knows how much the “Blood Sea Demon Cultivation Technique” could advance.
“Ah…”
At this moment, Lin Fan thought of Liang Yichu’s corpse quietly lying in his backpack.
Lin Fan’s eyes flickered with thought. If he threw Liang Yichu’s corpse into the Heavenly Furnace, what would be refined?
He had never thought of refining a person before, mainly because his mind wasn’t quick enough.
Now that Liang Yichu was already dead, why keep the corpse with him? Could he bring it out in front of Xin Feng?
“Damn it, forget it.” At this moment, Lin Fan sighed.
After all, Liang Yichu was Xin Feng’s master, so he should hand the corpse over to Xin Feng for a proper burial. Although reaching Da Tianwei’s peak was no small feat, he didn’t lack this one corpse.
It was just a pity about Li Yuanqi’s corpse. With one palm strike, it was completely turned to ashes, not even a trace left. If he had known this earlier, he would have preserved the corpse.
After sorting everything out, Lin Fan set off again. Jiuxiao Sect was still quite a distance away, deep in the far western lands. It was going to be a long journey.
…
Deep within Jiuxiao Sect’s dungeon.
The sound of iron chains clinking echoed, along with guttural roars coming from within.
At the deepest part.
Several Jiuxiao Sect’s senior elders had pale faces, their cultivation powers sealed. The chains locking them exuded a faint glow. The places where the chains connected emitted a sinister light, and the elders’ true energy was slowly draining away.
At a certain place, Xin Feng’s limbs were bound by iron chains, with two pitch-black bones piercing through his body.
“Senior Elders, Senior Brother Xin Feng, the Sect Leader took those people and left. Li Yuanqi led the sect disciples to attack Yuegong Sect,” a disciple, who was guarding the dungeon, said in a flustered manner.
The disciple wanted to rescue the elders and senior brothers, but the power of the chains was beyond his capability. Contacting them meant certain death.
“Such a calamity for Jiuxiao Sect,” one of the senior elders lamented bitterly.
The Sect Leader had become someone unrecognizable, doing such things.
“Senior Elder, what should we do?” Xin Feng, with his hair disheveled and his breath weak, asked.
“The Sect Leader must have been blinded by something. These chains are siphoning our cultivation. I fear it won’t be long before we turn into mummies and perish forever,” one of the senior elders grieved.
He never imagined that Jiuxiao Sect, once flourishing, would face such a great disaster.
Xin Feng lowered his head in silence. He also knew that their time was limited.
At this moment, one of the elders looked up at Xin Feng. “In this time of crisis for Jiuxiao Sect, as senior elders, we cannot allow ourselves to die in vain. Even if we perish, we must save Jiuxiao Sect. Xin Feng…”
“Disciple here.”
“Brothers, our bodies have already been eroded and aged, and we are powerless to change our fate. We cannot allow this thing to continue siphoning our energy. We will channel our entire lifetimes of cultivation into Xin Feng’s body, giving him a final chance at survival.”
“Alright, we have no choice but to do this.” Several senior elders nodded in agreement.
“Brothers, the chains’ connection points cannot stop the flow of true energy. I will let them draw from me, giving you time.”
Upon hearing this, Xin Feng was greatly alarmed. “Senior Elder, absolutely not! You will die…”
“Jiuxiao Sect is on the brink of destruction. We cannot allow the Sect Leader to continue down this wrong path. Brothers, prepare yourselves…”
