Chapter 393: Chapter 201: Shattering Oppression with Faith!

The dawn emerges from the mountains, and a gentle breeze brushes through the forest.

The great swordsman Zi Yu followed Ye Mingqiu throughout the night, yet he still couldn’t fathom where his companion intended to go. Eventually, he couldn’t suppress his curiosity and asked, "Where do you plan to take me?"

"Not sure yet."

Ye Mingqiu answered nonchalantly.

"..."

Zi Yu remained silent, puzzled internally.

Being the top swordsman of the Human Race, he could tell that Ye Mingqiu was not wandering aimlessly but progressing with a purpose. However, that target seemed to be shifting, resulting in changes in their direction.

But, he couldn’t pinpoint how the Blood Erosion Tyrant was locating the target, nor where the group intended to go or what they intended to accomplish.

In the next moment, Ye Mingqiu suddenly stopped in his tracks, turned to face the great swordsman behind him, and asked, "Great swordsman, have you ever heard of the dwelling place of the Divine Race?"

"I’ve only heard rumors. Some say the abode of Gods floats among the clouds, invisible to mortal eyes. Perhaps the Divine Race lives in the heavens." Zi Yu replied.

"Indeed."

Ye Mingqiu nodded slightly.

He applied a tracking mark on Tian Kui, enabling him to lock onto Tian Kui’s current location and roughly determine the position of the Divine Race.

Initially, the mark moved rapidly, suggesting that it was fleeing, and then it slowed down, possibly because it felt safe enough to slow the pace after gaining some distance.

Until finally, the mark moved at a slow pace, with no specific direction, making Ye Mingqiu feel as though Tian Kui wasn’t moving, but rather the Divine Race’s base itself was moving rather than stationed at a fixed point in the sky.

How troublesome!

If that’s the case, how do other great gods lock onto a position, and why can’t I? Am I lacking something compared to others?

"Do you want to find your way back?"

"Indeed."

"...."

Zi Yu showed a look of skepticism. Given the impression of the Blood Erosion Tyrant in his mind, it was impossible for this guy to want to return to the Divine Race out of homesickness. More likely, he wanted something from the Divine Race or some information, prompting him to seek them out.

Hence, he said, "The God exiled by the Divine Race cannot see the path to return."

"Oh."

Ye Mingqiu was relieved.

If that were the case, it wouldn’t be so hard to reach the Divine Race. You’d just have to catch a god and follow along, very simple.

"Compared to this, I’m more curious about why you treat humans and the Divine Race almost the same, unlike any other Divine Race people I’ve ever met." Zi Yu asked.

"Because both of you are equally weak, there’s no substantial difference for me." Ye Mingqiu replied.

"..."

Zi Yu fell into silence, but when he thought about it, perhaps it was true.

From the perspective of ordinary people, the gods were incredibly powerful, but in the eyes of the Blood Erosion Tyrant, they were merely fragile ants. Even the unrivaled Six Great Gods could easily be killed by him.

Such a god indeed had the qualification to disregard other Divine Race people.

"Do you know about blood stones?"

Ye Mingqiu asked, as his initial goal upon entering this world was to find blood stones, a treasure that could further transform the Blood Spear.

"Yes, the Divine Race enslaves humans, intending for them to mine blood stones. Countless humans die every year because of mining blood stones."

Zi Yu murmured to himself, then looked at the Tyrant before him and continued, "You want to obtain blood stones?"

"Yes."

"Here."

Zi Yu took a small blood stone the size of a soybean from his pocket and tossed it to Ye Mingqiu.

"Thanks."

Ye Mingqiu accepted the blood stone. Indeed, this size was far smaller compared to what he previously obtained from treasure chests, at least several hundred times smaller.

However, what he obtained was a Blood Crystal Stone, not a blood stone; perhaps there was a certain difference between the two. The Blood Crystal Stone might just be an unrefined ore of the blood stone, marked originally as a mineral.

[Blood Stone]

Type: Material/Consumable

Description: A special ore containing the crystallized bloodline of Pangu, shattering it restores injuries and divine power within a short time. Continuous use can extend lifespan and slightly increase power limits.

What a good thing! 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

No wonder this blood stone harbors the Pangu bloodline, explaining its strength and how the Blood Spear initially evolved with the Blood Crystal Stone’s fusion, gaining intelligence and advancing to its current form. Its foundation was the crystallized Pangu bloodline.

Ye Mingqiu took out the Blood Spear and placed the blood stone on its tip. The blood stone instantly emitted a red glow and quickly fused into the Blood Spear, while the weapon’s gleam grew brighter.

He felt that the strength of the Blood Spear surged up a notch. Its absorption efficiency towards the blood stone was high, and with enough blood stones, perhaps its strength could advance further.

Immediately, the scarlet-glowing Blood Spear pulsated, and the crimson light merged into Ye Mingqiu’s body through the Blood Spear.

[Tip: The Blood Spear has provided you with a surge of pure blood power, increasing basic defense +5, lightly boosting all attribute elemental resistance, abnormal status resistance slightly increased, and control effect resistance slightly increased.]

Pretty good enhancement; Ye Mingqiu became even more durable again.

"Are there channels to obtain blood stones?"

Ye Mingqiu looked up, a slightly excited smile emerging as he asked.

"You could directly rob the blood stone veins, or hunt other Divine Race people. That would quickly amass a large number of blood stones." Zi Yu replied.

"Are you suggesting I act just after the Divine Race has eradicated Great Shang, and wipe out their blood stone mines? Especially when I’ve already taken down three of the Six Great Gods?" Ye Mingqiu raised an eyebrow and countered.
