In the graveyard, a powerful thunderstorm fell from the sky, heavily striking the tombstone, producing a deafening thunderous sound.
Dust flew up, spreading wide.
After the smoke cleared, a deep pit appeared where the tombstone originally stood.
The Heroic Cemetery is approximately twenty kilometers away from the South Heaven Gate Fortress, and the protective shield isn’t that far apart.
While most of the Thunderbirds were attracted to the South Heaven Gate Fortress, a few managed to penetrate the barriers and arrived at the Heroic Cemetery.
They hovered in the sky, emitting sharp eagle cries.
Several streaks of Thunder Light entwined around the Thunderbird’s wings, and with a sudden flap, the Thunder Light descended from the sky.
They were attracted by the aftermath of the battle between the Thunder Sword and Big Gray.
Bolts of lightning descended from the sky like pythons.
Luo accidentally got hit by the lightning, and at this moment, Ye Bai discovered that a quarter of the Soul Puppet Threads on Luo had broken.
This proved that Thunder Attribute attacks still had some restraint on Luo.
Now was not the time for the Sunflower Emperor to use Holy Light Shining, as the Corpse Speaker still had three coffins unopened, and appeared at ease.
This indicated that the Corpse Speaker definitely had a backup plan, and using Holy Light Shining too early would alert the enemy. Tʜe source of this ᴄontent ɪs noveⅼfire.net
Ye Bai’s plan was to capture the Corpse Speaker, not to give it a chance to escape.
In just a moment, the Soul Puppet Threads on Luo regrouped once more.
She suddenly unleashed a Dark Stab, her body transformed into a stream of light, appearing behind the Thunderbird.
The black longsword pierced straight through the Thunderbird’s throat.
Thin lines resembling blood vessels appeared on the sword, voraciously absorbing the Thunderbird’s blood.
Not long after, the Thunderbird was drained into a dry corpse; the wounds Luo sustained from the battle with the Light Goddess Butterfly rapidly healed after absorbing the blood.
Amidst the battle, the Thunder Sword also decapitated the Thunderbird, absorbing a large amount of blood.
His body emitted more Thunder Light.
With the blood entering the Corpse Puppet’s body, the Blood Gu’s erosion accelerated noticeably.
They reproduced at a visible pace, thereby gaining control over the Corpse Puppet’s body.
A blood-red bat, only the size of a palm, hid in the shadows concealing its presence, secretly observing the battle and broadcasting it live to Blood Demon Du Bo.
Blood Demon lay on the Blood Bone Throne, two Dark Night Blood Bats flapped their wings, filling the goblet in Blood Demon’s hand with Essence of Blood.
Du Bo was currently dissatisfied; for some reason, the Exotic Beast’s blood was flowing down very slowly this time.
"At this rate, who knows when I’ll gather enough sacrifices to summon the Demon God’s feet."
This wasn’t good news for Du Bo.
If he didn’t collect enough blood after this Exotic Beast war, he might be held accountable by the humans.
There is a certain risk of failure in summoning the Demon God; the more Blood Energy, the higher the success rate.
Thus, Du Bo summoned many Blood Bats for reconnaissance, and after some time of observation, he finally found the clue.
It turned out that the Exotic Beasts drowned in the moat were actually parasitized by the spores.
They crawled rigidly out of the moat to meet the Flaming Leopard.
However, these overconfident beings got incinerated by fire before even nearing the Flaming Leopard.
"Could the spores from the South Heaven Gate Fortress have spread out?"
It’s the spores absorbing the blood of the Exotic Beasts that caused the lack of blood flow.
Du Bo was furious, grinding his teeth—what a delay this was.
"Damn it, if I find out which bastard made this plan, I swear I’ll tear them to pieces once I summon the Blood Demon God."
After absorbing enough blood, the Blood Pool, urged by the Sunflower Emperor, burrowed straight down.
The Blood Flood Dragon could sense the overwhelming energy below.
As it drew nearer to the Blood River, it heard the sound of waves crashing ashore.
A drop of blood pierced the earth’s surface, falling into the turbulent Blood River below.
The dark red Blood River rushed underground, casting mottled, dazzling reflections of blood-red light.
This river of blood seemed to have no source and no end in sight.
The iron smell of the blood mixed with the damp earth, creating a suffocating aroma.
The Blood Flood Dragon sniffed the air, savoring it.
It was like a fat rat falling into a granary.
"Oh my, with so much Blood Energy, perhaps I can reach the Peak of Tier Seven by absorbing it,"
The Blood Flood Dragon thought secretly, blinking its eyes.
The Blood Demon hadn’t noticed that the drop of blood falling from above was actually a disguise of the Blood Pool.
The Blood Pool, as it dropped into the Blood River, merged like a drop of water in the ocean.
Secretly, it submerged itself to the deepest part of the Blood River, nibbling bit by bit on the high-concentration Essence of Blood, like a little mouse stealing oil.
All of Blood Demon Du Bo’s hard-earned achievements ended up benefiting the Blood Pool.
If Blood Demon knew, would he die of rage?
Blood Pool was blatantly under Blood Demon’s nose, absorbing the diligently collected Essence of Blood.
Blood Demon’s face had an uncertain somberness; plans didn’t keep pace with changes.
He originally intended to quickly gather enough blood, taking advantage of the Exotic Beasts still besieging the city, before the higher-ups of the Flame Country noticed, to summon Blood Demon God Cain.
