Chapter 57: The Hunt Begins!
Translator: Daoist6fubtiW
“Good!” Yi Tianba looked at Su Yang with increasing satisfaction.”
At present, we can confirm that most of the Evil Blood Cultivation Sect members have gathered in the Bai Duan Mountains. Even the core of the Blood Sacrifice Formation is set up in this mountain range.”
“However…” Yi Tianba paused for a moment and continued, “The current situation is not too good.”
“We have invited a master of formations to trace the location of the Blood Sacrifice Formation using the veins of the formation. But the mountains are filled with numerous confusing veins set up by the Evil Blood Cultivation Sect, with each vein corresponding to a stronghold of the sect.”
“Each stronghold is guarded by an Evil Cultivator.”
“In this situation, you can’t ignore these strongholds because you don’t know if the core is located inside them. As a result, our forces can only act separately to clear each Evil Cultivator stronghold.”
“Dealing with the strongholds throughout the entire mountain range will likely take a considerable amount of time due to the resistance of the Evil
Cultivators.”
“But that is secondary.” Towards the end, Yi Tianba expressed some concerns, “What I fear the most is that the Evil Blood Cultivation Sect has a larger conspiracy. So far, everything seems too abnormal.”
“But we have no choice but to follow their arrangements.”
“The current Evil Blood Cultivation Sect seems to be buying time, and their true plans have yet to be revealed.”
“Is that so?” Su Yang understood and said, “Lord Yi, you stay here, and I’ll go in first to try to resolve these Evil Cultivators as quickly as possible.”
“Good.” Yi Tianba nodded and reminded, “But prioritize your safety. If you can’t handle something, don’t force it. Your talent shouldn’t be wasted here.”
“This token contains the true intent of my domineering blade. If you encounter danger, you can use it directly. It’s comparable to a strike from a Grandmaster.”
“In an instant, I will rush over to save you.”
Yi Tianba worried about Su Yang’s safety. Such a genius shouldn’t perish in front of him. He directly gave out something extraordinary from his hidden collection.
Su Yang blinked. Should he accept it or not?
Accepting it seems to have little use. Not accepting it might hurt Yi Tianba’s feelings.
Oh well, he’ll take it. He can repay him in the future. Besides, he has already accepted the benefits of killing the Evil Cultivators ahead.
“Thank you, Lord Yi,” Su Yang expressed his gratitude with a cupped fist.
Seeing Su Yang hesitate for a moment and then noticing Gu Xiu behind him, Yi Tianba also realized. The master is right there beside him, so it was unnecessary for him to do that. Instead, it made Su Yang’s master feel a bit embarrassed.
Yi Tianba looked at the silent Gu Xiu and also realized the situation. He couldn’t help but feel a bit regretful, but it was too late now.
Su Yang turned and stepped into the forest, and Yi Tianba recovered from his awkward state.
Gu Xiu followed Su Yang into the forest. His silence was because he was looking at the token given by Yi Tianba, which was a mix of hesitation and restraint. In the end, he didn’t know what to say.
He was thinking, should he advise the Sword Master to return an even more powerful token of sword intent?
Grandmaster… he didn’t know how many moves the Sword Master needed to kill.
Su Yang stepped into the Bai Duan Mountains and looked at the dense and intricate jungle.
In an instant, a vast sword intent emerged within him, spreading in an extremely subtle manner.
From a god’s perspective, it was like a spider’s web, starting from the size of a palm and gradually covering a large area of the forest.
In the blink of an eye, an area of a hundred miles entered Su Yang’s perception. Within this area, any living being’s movements would be detected by Su Yang.
The spider’s web had completely covered the area. Everything in the forest fell within his perception.
Whether it was tiny insects or tigers, leopards, wolves, or… people hiding in the darkness!
The amount of information was significant, but it didn’t burden him. These pieces of information were stored in a database, and they would automatically pop up when Su Yang needed them and be stored when he didn’t.
For example, Su Yang primarily wanted to sense humanoid beings, so the feedback from the spider’s web mainly provided information about active humanoid beings. It wouldn’t flood Su Yang’s mind with all the information at once.
The spider’s web covered a hundred-mile radius, and all the strongholds of the Evil Cultivators entered his mind.
The strongholds were deeply embedded in the mountains, with groups of people gathering together, showing no signs of action or movement, which was easy to distinguish.
But there were also battlefields with many figures crossing paths, making it difficult to discern who were Evil Cultivators and who were martial artists. Otherwise, he could simply sweep through the Bai Duan Mountains with a single sword.
He still needed to go in person.
Now… these Evil Cultivators were trapped in the sticky web.
The hunt… begins!
Su Yang stepped into the forest, his body enveloped in sword intent, flying close to the ground at a rapid speed.
Gu Xiu followed closely behind him into the forest.
In the blink of an eye, their figures disappeared.
“Hehehe…”
“Elder, it seems that these martial artists have arrived more or less, right?”
Inside a cave, an Evil Cultivator looked at a blood-colored illusion. It revealed the traces of martial practitioners in the forest.
From this perspective, the movements of the martial practitioners were completely exposed!
Tu Baisheng muttered, “I think it’s completely unnecessary. With our strength, we can directly eliminate these people. With the formation, not even Yi Tianba can be our match.”
“Oh?” Lixing glanced at him, “Are you powerful enough? Then why don’t you directly go and slaughter the city? ‘
“Use your brain. There must be arrangements from above for doing things this way.”
Lixing spoke without any politeness, and Tu Baisheng shrank his neck. It was better not to provoke this lunatic for now; he didn’t want to become a blood feast.
“Yes, Elder, you’re right.”
Seeing Tu Baisheng bow his head, Lixing’s expression softened slightly, “But we can still take some action against these martial practitioners.”
“They regard us as prey, trying to obtain rewards from the court… these rewards come with a price.”
“We’ll kill them slowly, torment them bit by bit, and let them know how wrong their choice was in getting involved in this matter.”
Tu Baisheng grinned after hearing that, “Hehehe… understood.”
If it weren’t for Lixing suppressing him, he would have already been unable to control himself.
And he felt like Lixing was just talking nonsense, showing off his identity.
Lixing, you bastard, I’ll definitely beat you up after I breakthrough to become a Grandmaster!
There are so many martial artists in the forest, all of them are his blood feast!
The vital energy and blood of martial artists are much stronger than ordinary people’s.
He has already reached the Grandmaster realm, and absorbing the blood of ordinary people is too slow. He has long targeted martial artists as his blood feast.
Only those who started practicing the Evil Blood Cultivation technique would use ordinary people as blood feasts.
Tu Baisheng grinned with a sinister smile. He slowly walked to the entrance of the cave, twisted his neck, and said fiercely:
“Brothers… it’s time to act!”
Behind Tu Baisheng, there are Evil Cultivators shrouded in blood energy.
The red aura envelops them, giving them a cloak of wickedness. In their eyes,
there is suppressed madness.
“Kill, kill, kill!!!”
