In the Nether Sea lay an unnamed island where Lu Changsheng used a rank-14 talisman, the “Void Talisman,” to enter the void beneath the ground and temporarily escape the pursuit of the Blood Sea Palace.
Lin Qinghan sat cross-legged, cultivating to recover from her injuries as much as possible.
Lin Qinghan was injured by the Blood Demon Ancestor, and the injuries were severe.
“If it weren’t for your strategy, we wouldn’t have been able to escape. I owe you another favor,” she said.
As the Holy Maiden of Tai Hua Holy Land, Lin Qinghan was not lacking in Immortal Pills; recovering from her injuries was only a matter of time.
“May I ask why the Tai Hua Holy Land has sent people to the Nether Sea this time?”
After getting closer to the Holy Maiden of Tai Hua, Lu Changsheng finally had the chance to ask about his doubts.
As she recuperated, Lin Qinghan explained, “The Tai Hua Holy Land had a Supreme Elder who disappeared hundreds of thousands of years ago. We recently learned that he appeared in the Nether Sea, so we sent people to search for him. Regardless of whether he’s alive or dead, we must bring him back to the holy land. It seems, though, that this was false information spread by the Blood Sea Palace, aiming to kill me.”
No wonder the Tai Hua Holy Land had invested so much manpower in the Nether Sea—it was all to find a missing Supreme Elder.
One who could be a Supreme Elder in the Tai Hua Holy Land was undoubtedly of extremely high status.
“Don’t worry, I’ve used talismans to inform the Holy Land of our situation, and they will send someone to receive us soon. We just need to hide our tracks,” she assured.
Lin Qinghan, who had experienced many life-and-death situations, was calm and patiently waited to be received by people from the Tai Hua Holy Land.
If the Tai Hua Holy Land knew that their Holy Maiden was in danger, they would surely send even stronger cultivators of higher realms to rescue her.
“But why was the information that I was leading the team leaked out? Could it be that someone in the Holy Land is colluding with the Blood Sea Palace in secret? The Blood Sea Palace, a Demon Sect that has only recently risen to prominence, is so powerful that they were even able to enlist the aid of the Candle Dragon Clan…” she murmured, deep in thought.
Lu Changsheng was also filled with doubts.
The Blood Demon Ancestor founded the Reincarnation Hall thirty thousand years ago and became an enemy of Mount Shu. Eventually, he was defeated by the then Sect Leader of Mount Shu, Immortal Green Lotus, and was forced to ascend to the Immortal Realm prematurely.
It was precisely because the Blood Demon Ancestor established the Reincarnation Hall that a series of events followed.
Lu Changsheng, who was investigating who in the Immortal Realm wanted to kill him, thought perhaps the Blood Demon Ancestor knew some inside information.
Sadly, since the Blood Demon Ancestor cultivated demonic arts, his realm was now even higher than that of Daoist Yuxuan, and Lu Changsheng had no way to capture the Blood Demon Ancestor alive to search his memories by force.
Lu Changsheng, too, waited patiently for someone from the Tai Hua Holy Land to come receive them.
He used the system to simulate the life of Su Xiaoqi, finding that she was safe and sound, which was a relief.
After all, she was also his disciple.
Lu Changsheng and Lin Qinghan hid on this island for nearly a month.
Suddenly, more than ten figures appeared in the sky above the island, their formidable Divine Sense enveloping the island.
Lu Changsheng and Lin Qinghan quickly held their breath and focused their minds, concealing their auras as much as possible to escape detection by the Blood Sea Palace. Stay tuned to empire
“My Blood Demon Claws left a faint trace of blood energy here, but why is there no sign of them? Could it be that they used a Void Talisman?” pondered the Blood Demon Ancestor, his eyes flashing with insight.
With his seasoned experience, he had seen many talismans and knew that the Void Talisman could allow one to enter the void and temporarily avoid pursuers.
The Blood Demon Ancestor’s Blood Bead once again transformed into the Blood Realm, enveloping the island.
He released a talisman, and space rippled, even shaking the void beneath the ground.
“We’ve been discovered!” realized Lu Changsheng in alarm.
The Blood Demon Ancestor was indeed much more terrifying than the Green Ox King.
While the Green Ox King had not been able to locate Lu Changsheng using the Void Talisman, the Blood Demon Ancestor’s understanding of the Space Law surpassed that of the Green Ox King, and despite Lu Changsheng’s extreme caution, he had been found by the Blood Demon Ancestor.
Lu Changsheng and Lin Qinghan emerged from the void and flew southward on their swords.
“The two mice finally can’t hide anymore?” said the Blood Demon Ancestor, spotting Lu Changsheng and Lin Qinghan. A sinister smile spread across his lips as he gestured, and more than a dozen Blood Sea Palace Elders took action simultaneously, unleashing various Demon Sect magical treasures at Lu Changsheng and Lin Qinghan, aiming to kill them both in one fell swoop!
Lin Qinghan reached out and a Thousand Mechanism Umbrella appeared in her hand.
As the umbrella unfolded in her grasp, the temperature around them abruptly rose, forming a fiery vortex!
The nature’s spiritual energy burned fiercely, as if it was a Fire Prison!
Although the magical treasure was not yet fully refined, its power was already terrifying. The fire it invoked was not ordinary true fire but the Supreme Solar Fire.
“Ah!”
A Blood Sea Palace Elder was engulfed by the Supreme Solar Fire and completely obliterated.
The Supreme Solar Fire even burned through the Blood Realm created by the Blood Demon Ancestor.
Lu Changsheng was somewhat surprised by the magical treasure Lin Qinghan had refined.
Many of the materials for this magical treasure came from Lu Changsheng himself.
“Don’t think you can escape, Blood Fiend Formation!” commanded the Blood Demon Ancestor. Twelve Blood Sea Palace Elders each took out a Daoist Banner, forming the Blood Fiend Formation.
The Daoist Banners fluttered, summoning a blood shadow from each, twelve in total. A flood of blood fiend energy rolled in, enveloping Lu Changsheng and Lin Qinghan.
“Law of Heaven and Earth!”
The Blood Demon Ancestor manifested the body of a Blood Demon, covering the sky and ruling like a master over his Blood Realm, looking down coldly at the two below.
“It’s no wonder he founded one of Xia State’s four great Demon Sects. The Blood Demon Ancestor’s talent for cultivating demonic arts is extraordinary, and he has now surpassed Daoist Yuxuan by a lot,” Lu Changsheng thought, feeling the difficulty of the situation.
The Blood Demon Ancestor was once a formidable enemy of Mount Shu and, after ascending to the Immortal Realm, cultivated demonic arts even more rapidly.
Although Demon Sect cultivation techniques naturally allowed faster cultivation progression than ordinary methods, the chances of surviving Heavenly Tribulation were lower. That the Blood Demon Ancestor had survived was a testament to this Great Demon’s exceptional talent.
