Chapter 342: Chapter 229: Blood Demon_2

“Heh heh heh!”

A strange laughter echoed from nowhere.

“Hmm?”

Everyone’s gaze sharpened, and their demeanor changed abruptly.

Looking again at the mountain, an astonishing change had taken place.

“The foundation of ascension, you dare to abandon it?”

“Foolish, foolish!”

“Why don’t you hand it over to me!”

Amidst the bizarre howls, a streak of blood light appeared out of nowhere, traversing the layers of arrays with ease, and under the watchful eyes of the six Corpse Resolution Immortals, it reached the edge of the Red Blood Demon Embryo and plunged into it.

Immediately…

“Gurgle~ Gurgle!”

The Demon Embryo wriggled and transformed in an instant, turning into a red-robed man.

Red-robed as blood, alluring and exceptional, the young man was peerlessly handsome with a chilling evil aura.

“Blood Demon!”

“Zheng Yin!”

“You really did come!”

As the Red Blood Demon Embryo took on human form, the six Corpse Resolution Immortals were not at all surprised, as if they had anticipated this.

Li Qiankun even stood up, coldly watching the man in blood-red robes: “Since you have come, then stay here. Just in time, we are in urgent need of virtue for our ascension, so you will be the first, to purge this world of the filth of demonkind!”

“Hahaha!”

Hearing this, the “Blood Demon Zheng Yin” roared with laughter, his cold gaze sweeping around and finally settling on Luo Lie, who had just undergone Corpse Resolution: “It seems that today’s plot is set for me!”

Facing his sinister gaze, the newly advanced Luo Lie smiled: “Knowing there’s a tiger in the mountain, yet still walking towards the mountain—you must be very confident, having come prepared. Show all the tricks you have!”

“That’ll depend on whether you have the ability to see them!”

Zheng Yin let out a wild roar and exploded into action, transforming into streams of blood that shot outwards.

At the same time, outside the Ice and Snow Palace…

“Hmm?”

“This sky…”

“What’s going on!”

The sky darkened suddenly, and darkness flowed like a tide from every direction.

Everyone was shocked, looking up to see the vast, darkened sky with a crescent hanging like a thread, slowly turning the color of blood.

Blood moon in the sky!

“Blood moon?”

“Demonic Qi?”

“This is bad!”

Seeing this scene, everyone in Great Xing Mountain, who were invited to the ceremony, changed color, no longer caring that this was the site of the Mountain Gate Array. They prepared their Escape Lights to flee.

This time, Great Xing Mountain had issued widespread invitations, not only to the six Corpse Resolution Sects but also to many Golden Core powers and Loose Cultivators, vaguely implying a willingness to accept various Golden Cores to ascend together.

Thus, in addition to the six Corpse Resolution Sects, many other powers, as well as Golden Core Loose Cultivators, came to observe the ceremony.

But at this moment…

“Blood moon!”

“Demon Realm!”

“Holy Blood Demon Sect!”

“Great Xing Mountain… Unfilial!”

“Damn their ancestors!”

“Quick, let’s go!”

A group of Loose Cultivators cursed bitterly in their hearts, frantically rushing towards the outside world.

However, with the blood moon overhead, the Demon Realm had already been established!

The surging dark currents were boundless, making people feel insignificant and desperate.

Just then…

“Everyone, don’t panic, remain calm!”

“The Sect Masters knew that the Blood Demon would come to cause trouble, and they have prepared for it, so there is no need to worry!”

“Everyone, don’t throw yourselves into disarray, follow our directions to face the enemy!”

“The Blood Demon will be dealt with by the Sect Masters themselves: we just need to maintain the Array, ensure that the gates of Great Xing Mountain are not breached, and prevent other Demon Objects from interfering.”

“After this demon-slaughtering task is complete, those who contribute will be credited and earn a place to ascend with our Seven Sects.”

Streaks of light shot out, revealing the actions of members from the Seven Sects, Golden Core elders presiding over the matter.

The intervention of the Seven Sects’ Golden Cores made the situation clear in an instant.

The Loose Cultivators cursed inwardly upon hearing this.

“Damn it!”

“I knew it, I knew it!”

“There’s no such thing as a free lunch in this world!”

“Very well, a cunning plan indeed. You call yourselves Corpse Resolution Immortals, yet you don’t even care to save face!”

Various powers and Golden Core Loose Cultivators were all filled with pent-up frustration and unquenchable anger.

And some, unaware of the full situation, looked at each other in confusion.

“`

“Holy Blood Demon Sect?”

“`

“`

“This…”

“`

“`

“What’s going on?”

“`

“`

“Isn’t it White Jade Capital?”

“`

“`

“What’s White Jade Capital? They only show their face and not their tail, and after all, they are just Golden Core—worth the combined effort of the Seven Sects?”

“`

“`

“This time, the Seven Sects have laid out the Corpse Resolution to set a trap to ambush and kill the Blood Demon!”

“`

“`

“The Holy Blood Demon Sect is the true thorn in the side of the Seven Corpse Resolution Sects, the biggest obstacle to Breaking the Realm and Ascension.”

“`

“`

“I should have known, I should have known!”

“`

“`

“…”

“`

“`

A group of Loose Cultivators cursed angrily in their hearts, filled with resentment.

“`

“`

But the current situation was such that they were powerless; despite their extreme hatred for the Seven Sects, they had no choice but to retreat back to the Great Xing Mountain Gate at their direction.

“`

“`

However, as the crowd began to retreat, a sudden and horrifying change occurred.

“`

“`

“Bang! Bang! Bang!”

“`

“`

Blood lights fell from the sky, bombarding the Great Xing Mountain Gate.

“`

“`

The Mountain Gate Array had already been activated, with a layer of ice crystal barrier forming to block the onslaught of blood lights.

“`

“`

But with the Blood Moon overhead and an endless barrage of blood lights, even the Mountain Gate Array struggled to withstand the attack.

“`

“`

In just a moment, the ice crystals showed cracks, and the barrier was on the brink of collapse.

“`

“`

Just as the Mountain Gate Array was about to be broken, a dragon shadow suddenly flew out of the Ice and Snow Palace, soaring up into the sky and coiling around, transforming into a vast expanse of cloud sea that covered the Blood Moon. The rain of blood lights subsided, and the wavering Mountain Gate Array immediately stabilized.

“`

“`

“What is this…”

“`

“`

“Haoqi Cloud Dragon!”

“`

“`

“The Sect Master has made a move!”

“`

“`

“Hold the array firmly, there must be no mistakes!”

“`

“`

“This time, we must execute that Blood Demon!”

“`

“`

Seeing the Haoqi Cloud Dragon cover the sky and block the evil blood light, everyone was reassured. The Golden Cores of the Seven Sects and the elders took charge, distributing disciples and even some Loose Cultivators as cannon fodder to various positions to defend.

“`

“`

Meanwhile, outside the Mountain Gate Array, although the blood rain had stopped, there was an undercurrent approaching, and numerous scarlet demon shadows charged at the Mountain Gate Array from the ground.

“`

“`

The Mountain Gate Array operated accordingly, its gates opening to filter out the Demon Objects for the Cultivators inside to slaughter. Clearly, they didn’t plan to rely solely on the power of the array to resist the enemy’s assault.

“`

“`

In response, the Loose Cultivators, although cursing inwardly, had no choice but to grit their teeth and engage with the scarlet demon shadows that were coming in waves.

“`

“`

At the same time, outside Great Xing Mountain.

“`

“`

A man stood in the void, observing the scene of the Demon Realm.

“`

“`

It was Xu Yang.

“`

“`

He didn’t seem to be the protagonist of this scene.

“`

“`

The Seven Sects and the Nine Immortals used the Slaughtering Demon grand assembly as a pretext to set a trap, a lure to bring someone into the pot.

“`

“`

This trap wasn’t aimed at him, nor at White Jade Capital, but at… the Holy Blood Sect!

“`

“`

Holy Blood Demon Sect!

“`

“`

There is good and evil in the world, and paths are divided between Righteous and Demon.

“`

“`

Although the actions of the Corpse Resolution Sects were frequently questionable, they were barely considered to be on the Righteous Path in this world.

“`

“`

But the Holy Blood Demon Sect was different.

“`

“`

This sect had appeared in the world a thousand years ago, but where it came from was unknown to everyone.

“`

“`

It was only known that its Sect Master, who called himself “Corpse Blood Divine Monarch,” had a Cultivation comparable to Corpse Resolution Divinity Transformation. He also had wicked methods, enabling him to transform the Blood Moon and create the Blood Moon Demon Realm—an enclosed and inescapable place, sealed from the heavens.

“`

“`

Using this method, the Corpse Blood Divine Monarch created numerous Blood Moon Demon Realms, devouring all living beings and even Cultivator Sects.

“`

“`

In the end, it truly shook the world; various major Sects joined forces, and a group of Corpse Resolution Cultivators finally dismantled the Demon Realm, inflicting heavy damage on the Corpse Blood Divine Monarch.

“`

“`

Yet despite being severely injured, he was not killed and managed to escape.

“`

“`

Over the past thousand years, the major Corpse Resolution Sects were constantly entangled with the Holy Blood Demon Sect. Although they repeatedly inflicted heavy damage on the Blood Demon, they were never able to completely annihilate it.

“`

“`

Over the past ten years, although Xu Yang had come to understand the Holy Blood Demon Sect, he had no actual contact and knew very little.

“`

“`

The Listening to the Wind and Asking Rain Tower side also did not provide much valuable information, just a bit of speculation—a bit of speculation from the major Corpse Resolution Sects.

“`

“`

That is—the Blood Demon is not a demon!

“`

“`

Regardless of the three Death Lands, the nine Demon Realms, or the various sealed True Demons, none had sentience, only instinct.

“`

“`

But the Corpse Blood Divine Monarch was different; he had intelligence and could communicate. Apart from his peculiar methods, he was no different from a human.

“`

“`

Therefore, the various Sects speculated that he was not a demon from the ancient times but a new-born demon.

“`

“`

This was no good news.

“`

“`

With the Yuan Spirit tainted and Cultivation becoming difficult, even as the old demons were not yet extinguished, new demons emerged.

“`

“`

It was indeed a cause for despair.

“`

“`

The major Corpse Resolution Sects had also attempted to communicate with the Corpse Resolution Divine Monarch, to see if there was any possibility of peaceful coexistence—even going so far as considering deflection to the Demon Path.

“`

“`

After all, as Yuan Spirit Cultivators seeking immortality, as long as they could retain their sense of self, falling into the Demon Path was not entirely unacceptable.

“`

“`

But although they accepted the idea, the Corpse Blood Divine Monarch did not.

“`

“`

This demon… fed on Immortals!

“`

“`

That attempt, that communication, caused the Corpse Resolution Immortal Sects to suffer grievous losses, with three Nascent Souls consumed by the Blood Demon.

“`

“`

Since then, the Corps Resolution Immortal Sect and the Holy Blood Demon Sect were locked in an irreconcilable conflict, with the name of Zheng Yin, the Corpse Blood Divine Monarch, becoming an untouchable taboo among common people.

“`

“`

Now, the Seven Corpse Resolution Sects, under the guise of the Great Xing Mountain Slaughtering Demon Assembly, have lured the hidden Blood Demon into their midst, seemingly determined to eradicate this serious threat once and for all.
