Chapter 223: Blood Cloud Divine Vine, Yuhong Xue Nearly Destroyed!
In the central region, a remote area. The source of this content ɪs novel~fire~net
Usually, few people come here, but today, many figures have gathered.
One after another, a total of over thirty!
Their auras were strong, eerie, and sinister.
A large crack appeared in the sky above.
Although smaller than the one over Wild Sky City, it was still formidable.
“The Yellow Spring Demon Sect didn’t show up.” A raspy voice sounded, chilling to the bone.
“Weren’t they swallowed up? What’s the point in coming?” a blood-shadowed figure said coldly.
“Interesting, even though the Yellow Spring Demon Sect was weak, it was still one of our Ten Demon Sects, yet they were taken over by some emerging power, something called the Holy Church, I believe.” A figure carrying a coffin remarked.
“The White Lotus Sacred Sect, led by a young woman advancing rapidly in cultivation. She’s already reached the Life and Death Realm. Behind her, there’s rumored to be a royal path supporter.” A burly figure stepped out of the shadows, appearing pale and lifeless. “According to news from the Demon Realm, she likely possesses the True Demon Art.”
At this, the scene fell silent.
The True Demon Art — just three words, but of great significance.
This ancient, orthodox demonic art was designed specifically to suppress demons, but it had been lost in the distant past, only re-emerging in this era.
“Our current demonic techniques are already corrupted, gaining power through the worship of demon gods. But True Demon Art is our bane.”
“Perhaps that’s why Yellow Spring Demon Sect lost to them,” someone speculated. “Looks like we’ll need to address this White Lotus Sacred Sect, or Yellow Spring’s fate will be ours.”
“Enough of this talk. Our young prodigies should go in now. The mission takes priority, even above obtaining divine items. Kill all the righteous path prodigies, especially Meng Changqing. This is a direct order.”
The coffin-bearer turned around, facing numerous young, powerful demonic cultivators in the Life and Death Realm.
“Understood!” Figures responded respectfully, each with a cruel smile.
Wild Sea, Outer Eastern Sea
The divine item here was known as the Blood Cloud Divine Vine.
Even though it was a common divine item, not even Tier Two, many in the Life and Death Realm still coveted it.
Since it matured more quickly than the Wish Spirit Fruit, battle had already broken out in the area.
A fierce corpse energy surged in the air!
A figure unleashed a mighty 50% punch intent.
“Great Sun Golden Body!” A shout sounded as Yu Hongxue radiated with dazzling golden light, her palms like crystalline glass.
They clashed, and Yu Hongxue was forced back hundreds of meters, her hands visibly cracked and injured.
“Demons…” She steadied herself, the weight of her enemy clear on her beautiful face.
When Yu Hongxue had reached the outer eastern sea, she made a beeline for the Blood Cloud Divine Vine.
Although she wouldn’t use it herself, she intended to bring it back to her sect where others awaited it.
But as soon as she arrived, she encountered this demonic figure, a member of the Corpse Yin Demon Sect.
Her adversary was no ordinary foe, with immense power and rich experience that highlighted the gap between them.
“Looking at you, you must be the young master of Nine-Color Glaze Pavilion from the Southern Region.
“Heh, mere genius-level prodigies daring to vie for ancient opportunities.”
The demonic figure sneered, his body swelling to a towering ten meters, corpse energy corroding even the air.
This member of the Corpse Yin Demon Sect, worshippers of the Corpse Demon God, represented a twisted form of physical cultivation…
“No interest in clashing with the righteous path so soon, but since you’re here, might as well end this.” He cracked his neck, murderous intent gleaming in his pale eyes.
“Arrogant!” Yu Hongxue’s face turned cold.
To be looked down upon was unbearable.
If they were the same age, she would crush him easily!
“Hmph, you’ll know soon enough!” The demonic figure vanished and lunged at her with corpse energy billowing.
“Corpse Yin Demon Art: Devouring Sun Cloud!”
Yu Hongxue sidestepped, searching for an opening.
Contrary to popular belief, high-level demonic arts were on par with great sect techniques.
Otherwise, how would the Ten Demon Sects have survived this long?
“Annoying…” Yu Hongxue frowned, struggling to find an opportunity.
Her opponent’s deep foundation left no visible weaknesses, and his experience was unmatched.
As things stood, her only fate seemed to be death.
“Fall!” In a split-second lapse, her opponent seized the chance.
He appeared right in front of her, his corpse energy freezing the air as he struck toward her head.
“Corpse Yin Demon Art: Demon Cloud Devours Day!”
At this crucial moment, Yu Hongxue quickly moved her hands to shield herself.
Her Nine-Color Glaze shone at its brightest!
With a deafening crash, Yu Hongxue was blasted away, blood spilling as she tumbled.
Now, she looked pale, arms limp, and shrouded in corpse energy — a grave injury.
“I’ll take your head and claim my reward,” the demonic figure sneered, ready to finish her off.
But just as he lifted his foot, he paused, noticing someone had arrived and caught Yu Hongxue.
