The blood light scattered across the land, starting from Yuan Wudi, and a massive red tide suddenly spread in all directions. Wherever the red tide passed, the ground congealed with blood-red crystals.

Bloody strange flowers vehemently grew from beneath the crystals, covering areas like a carpet.

Wherever the eyes of the people landed, everything was scarlet red.

From the sky descended a drizzle of blood rain, while a crimson star hung high amid the red sky, blood light surging.

"This is the Life Star Realm of the Iron Blood Massacre Prison!" Huang Ting exclaimed in shock standing atop a broken wall.

According to the Life Star Atlas, each Life Star possesses immense power, of which the primary ability is to manifest a Life Star Realm, bringing about miraculous spectacles.

Life Stars vary, so naturally, the miraculous spectacles of their manifested realms differ as well—this is a powerful force that can directly alter a large area of terrain.

Amid the blood rain, Yuan Wudi’s entire being turned vividly red, his spear was instantly dyed in crimson too.

"Ugh!" Dong Zhou felt an overwhelming dizziness as scarlet filled his sight, prompting a nauseous churn in his stomach that forced him to kneel and retch.

In contrast, Ah Jiu stood beside him appearing completely normal.

Huang Ting activated True Qi to protect his whole body; the Life Star Realm of Iron Blood Massacre Prison is no simple matter—the blood rain possesses the ability to disrupt the sensory spirit of humans, easily leading ordinary people to mental collapse, reducing them to fools.

"General Yuan actually resorted to such life-risking means." Those two eunuchs from the Rootless Sect each retrieved a black oil-paper umbrella from somewhere and opened it, looking quite curiously at the silhouette of Qin Yuesheng.

Hsss! Hsss!

The tall black horse ridden by Yuan Wudi slowly approached, undergoing metamorphosis under the blood rain; scales of blood-red crystal grew from within the horse’s body, its hooves set ablaze with dark-red flames, its black mane turned scarlet, and its mouth sprouted fierce, beast-like fangs, rendering it menacing.

Qin Yuesheng was shielded by a water protective piece; the blood rain did not affect him. In his gaze, he saw the red light from Yuan Wudi intensifying, threads of red smoke swirling off him, ultimately coalescing into a beast-like crimson armor.

He mounted his horse, single-handedly wielding the blood-red spear, elevating his aura immediately to the peak of its intensity.

In this realm, Heaven and Earth aligned with him; the wind and flowers supported him.

Even Ah Jiu, who had never practiced martial arts, could feel the overwhelming and palpable terrifying aura emanating from Yuan Wudi.

Huang Ting’s expression grew solemn; within the Life Star Realm, the power of the Life Star master escalates enormously. Clearly, Yuan Wudi’s current state is his true peak power.

Comparatively, his previous encounter with Qin Yuesheng seemed nothing more than childish play.

"I am Northern Desert’s Yuan Wudi!" Yuan Wudi’s eyes burst forth with bright red light, immediately driving his warhorse towards Qin Yuesheng.

The warhorse’s hoofbeats thundered like roaring thunderstorms, shaking the ground as Yuan Wudi brandished the spear in his hand, transforming it into a red crescent moon arc sweeping towards Qin Yuesheng.

Faced with the overwhelming wind, Qin Yuesheng’s robe and hair blew exaggeratedly; it was as if standing beside a storm.

Boom!

In an instant, Qin Yuesheng raised the Soul-Catching Arm wielding the Celestial Demon Evil Blade to block, colliding fiercely with Yuan Wudi’s spear.

Seven Great Limits of Heaven and Earth: Thunder!

Crackling purple lightning erupted from the Celestial Demon Evil Blade, surging along the spear reaching towards Yuan Wudi.

Qin Yuesheng swung the blade repeatedly, unleashing the full power of the Soul-Catching Arm combined with the Seven Limits Saber Skill—its might unimaginable.

Yuan Wudi’s spear was thwarted, yet he swung his arms mightily, smashing again towards Qin Yuesheng.

Yuan Wudi’s strength was already considerable; now, within this Life Star Realm, all aspects of his power elevated further, leaving the Soul-Catching Arm struggling against his fierce assaults.

Each time Qin Yuesheng struck, his legs sank several inches into the ground’s red crystals, forcibly driven down by Yuan Wudi’s power.

In their vicinity, the energies of blade and spear rampaged; Huang Ting and the eunuchs of the Rootless Sect feared being engulfed and retreated quickly.

The aftermath of Qin Yuesheng and Yuan Wudi’s clash had reached a perilous level where intervention was unthinkable.

"The Life Star Realm of the Iron Blood Massacre Prison continuously supplies this man with power. If the young master of the Qin family does not similarly open his own Life Star Realm, he won’t likely be a match for his opponent." Huang Ting couldn’t help but think.

He had no idea that Qin Yuesheng didn’t even know he possessed a Life Star.

Faced with Yuan Wudi’s berserk attacks, Qin Yuesheng at this moment capitalized on his advantage—abundant divine skills.

Seven Great Limits, Dragon Soaring Sword Skill, Thousand-Handed Buddha Transformation, Five-Word True Formula, Flying Knife Divine Skill—truly a vivid display, skillful and dazzling.

Simultaneously deploying numerous divine skills caused six white rings to appear behind Qin Yuesheng, rapidly absorbing the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi of the area.

But suddenly, he discovered something shocking—the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi he drew from all around was instantly freed from his control upon entering the Life Star Realm, diverted towards Yuan Wudi.
