Chapter 344: Chapter 230: Sudden Turn_2

“`plaintext

The Sword of Ice and Fire cleaved into the Blood Sea, causing countless amounts of blood to boil and evaporate into blue smoke, while some Blood Demons appeared and were frozen into icy crystal shards.

Although it sounded contradictory, the scene was just as described. The forces of water and fire, clashing to their extremes, gave rise to marvelous creation and unleashed astounding might.

Such was the sword’s momentum—fierce and swift—it pierced into the Blood Sea and headed straight for the true body of the Blood Demon.

“Pffft!!!”

Just as the Blood Demon had drawn its blade to clash with the Three Monks of Longhua, it stood no chance against Luo Lie’s swing of the Sword of Water and Fire Profound Ice combined with the Array of Ice Soul Profound Pole—there was no possibility to dodge or defend, and it could only allow itself to be struck.

“Hiss!!!”

Water and Fire Profound Ice, a slash of extremity, split the Blood Demon’s head and bisected its body, even cleaving the Blood Sea apart.

The blood vaporized, and the Demonic Qi dissipated. The Blood Sea, which had almost overflowed from the Ice Palace and occupied the center of the battlefield, rapidly condensed into two masses of crimson flesh.

The blood-red flesh still writhed, with blood threads growing and flesh sprouts emerging, as if trying to regenerate the body of the Blood Demon and the towering Blood Sea.

“Seal!!!”

However, the seven Corpse Resolution sects gave no opportunity. Masters Sikong Ya of Snow God Peak and Yu Wuxin of Ice Polar Palace jointly activated the Array of Ice Soul Profound Pole, with the power of extreme cold freezing even the void, and needless to say, the flesh in the center instantly turned into two ice crystals.

“Amitabha!”

“Vajra Demon Subduing!”

Wu Que chanted a Buddhist incantation, and the Longhua Treasure Tree granted its blessing again.

Immediately after, the Great Vajra Bright King and Fangzheng Amitabha Monk joined forces, casting numerous Buddhist seals aimed at the two ice crystals.

These two Corpse Resolution masters were extraordinary: one relied on “Vajra Bodhi” and the other on “Amitabha Firm Gold,” both fourth-tier Demon Transformation Spiritual Objects. Harmonizing with the methods of Buddhism, they were even more capable of suppressing the evil power of the Blood Demon.

Together, the monks unleashed consecutive Buddhist seals, applying Slaughtering Demon sealing techniques.

In the blink of an eye, the two ice crystals were covered with golden Sanskrit characters, intertwining like nets, akin to iron chains binding them.

“Seal!!!”

Double layers of suppression, double layers of prohibitions.

Thus, the six of them still felt it was not enough, and applied their own techniques. With the Array of Ice Soul Profound Pole and the Great Vajra Buddha Demon Array, they sealed the two ice crystals respectively.

“Capture!!”

After three layers of restrictions, the six Corpse Resolution masters finally rested, and Luo Lie with Wu Que each took an ice crystal into their keeping.

The Corpse Blood Divine Monarch, a newly risen demon, was thus sealed.

Meanwhile, outside the Ice Palace…

“Roar!!!” fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm

The sky roared mightily, shaking all directions.

The vast clouds reshaped once more, forming a cloud dragon that soared and whipped its tail, revealing a bright and pure moon.

The moon shone bright and pure, with all bloodiness gone, and all abnormalities vanished.

The Blood Demon was not only troublesome in itself but also affected the environment of the world.

With the world tainted by demons, the heavens and earth polluted, the Blood Demon also had the ability to create a Blood Moon Demon Realm, gathering Demonic Qi from all directions and forming a realm unique to it.

Without the dismissal of the Blood Moon, the Demon Realm would not disperse.

If the Demon Realm did not disperse, the Blood Demon would not perish.

Back then, when various sects joined hands to besiege the Corpse Blood Divine Monarch, it was on this front that they suffered greatly. They battled the Blood Demon for seven days and nights, yet the Blood Sea remained infinite and indestructible.

In the end, they could only barely seal it, but within a hundred years, it broke free, persisting until now and causing endless nuisance.

Fortunately, as dynasties change, new talents emerge. Haoqi Sect created the Wonderful Skill of Haoqi Cloud Dragon, which could isolate the Blood Moon and sever the Demon Realm, forming the fundamental method for the Corpse Resolution Slaughtering Demon assembly.

Ultimately living up to expectations, the Haoqi Cloud Dragon obscured the sky, successfully separated the Blood Moon, and severed the link between the Blood Demon and the Demon Realm. This denied the Blood Demon the support of the realm, and it no longer had the inexhaustible Blood Sea, nor was it immortal.

With the underlying cause eliminated, faced against six Corpse Resolution masters, even the mighty Blood Demon was helpless, and was slashed to pieces by the six masters, its demon seed frozen and heavily suppressed.

With the Blood Demon sealed, the Blood Moon faded, and the Demon Realm consequently collapsed.

The battlefield below was also affected, with countless blood-red demon shadows collapsing into blood, vaporizing into mist, drifting away like strands of green smoke.

“Heh, heh!”

“It’s gone, it’s gone, the Blood Moon is gone!”

“The Sect Master has succeeded, the Sect Master has succeeded!”

“The retreat of the Blood Moon means the Demon Realm resolves itself!”

“It seems the seven sects have succeeded!”

“Truly worthy of being a Corpse Resolution Sect, their methods are indeed extraordinary.”

“With the Blood Demon’s nuisance gone and the nine Corpse Resolution masters assembled, won’t the matter of Ascension be…”

“Hmph, be grateful if you survive, do you really think they’ll take you with them to ascend to heaven?”

“Even if it’s a mass Ascension, it would only be their own chickens and dogs, why would they take along stray dogs from outside?”

“`

“We have been fighting bloody battles on its behalf, without neither recognition nor reward. Surely, the mighty Corpse Resolution Sect wouldn’t shamelessly break its promise, right?”

“Hehehe…”

As the battle finally ended, the survivors looked at the battlefield, ravaged and scarred, with both trepidation and a faint sense of expectation. They all turned their gaze towards the disciples of the Seven Sects and the Haoqi Cloud Dragon in the sky.

In the heavens, the Haoqi Cloud Dragon soared and descended into the Snow Palace on Snow God Mountain.

Upon entering the Ice Palace, they were met by seven figures reporting the outcomes of the battle.

“Brother Dao’s Divine Skills are truly mystical!”

Great Xing Mountain’s elder Luo Lie led the way, followed by Sikong Ya, the master of Snow God Peak, and Yu Wuxin, the Palace Master of Ice Polar Palace; all three stepped forward to greet Li Qiankun, “Without your strategy to draw out the root from the pot, even if the six of us joined forces, we might have struggled to subdue the Blood Demon.”

“Brother Dao flatters me.”

Li Qiankun humbly smiled with a very low posture, “If not for Brother Dao bearing the humiliation and possessing the Wonderful Skill to deceive the heavens, how could we have lured the Blood Demon into the trap? The greatest merit in suppressing the demon should belong to Brother Dao.”

As the conversation ensued, his gaze swept over Sikong Ya and Yu Wuxin standing in the back, then turned back to Luo Lie, “Now that the Blood Demon has been suppressed, would you like to restore the lineage of Snow God Mountain?”

“Indeed, we should!”

Luo Lie nodded, stroking his beard with a smile, “Long ago, internal strife within our sect allowed the Blood Demon to take advantage and wreak havoc upon Snow God Mountain. We were forced to split our lineage into three. Now that the Blood Demon is suppressed, it is time for us to honor our ancestors and reunite the sect.”

“Precisely!”

Li Qiankun agreed with a smile, “Why not pick today rather than wait for later? Let’s announce it to the world today, in line with the theme of this Slaughtering Demon Corpse Resolution gathering.”

“Hmm… very well!”

Luo Lie pondered for a moment and then added, “However, these are all minor details. Now that the Blood Demon has been suppressed by us and has no chance of breaking free within a hundred years, we should focus on cleansing the world of its filthy demonic influences, to accumulate merit and ascend to the Upper Realm.”

“Correct!”

Li Qiankun nodded, “This matter must be settled today!”

“Pu!!!”

“…”

“…”

“…”

Amidst their conversation, a muffled sound abruptly led to dead silence.

Luo Lie’s pupils shrank as he lowered his head to look at the sword pointing at his chest, then at the calmly smiling Li Qiankun opposite him, his eyes instantly turning icy cold.

“Li Qiankun!”

“You…!”

Seeing this scene, Sikong Ya and Yu Wuxin in the back were both shocked and furious, immediately attacking Li Qiankun.

However…

“Amitabha!”

Wu Que softly chanted the Buddha’s name as two monks appeared on either side, attacking Sikong Ya and Yu Wuxin.

“Boom!!!”

The clash of three parties caused a thunderous blast that shook heaven and earth.

The snow palace on the ice mountain shattered in an instant, and a crimson blood light surged like an overwhelming tide.

The sea of blood swept outwards, forcing four figures to emerge; amongst them were the three monks and one other.

The three monks radiated Buddha’s light, and the one, Haoqi.

Li Qiankun emerged gracefully, his Haoqi like a dragon, fending off the raging waves of blood.

The Three Monks of Longhua retreated together to the edge of the blood sea, where the Longhua Treasure Tree stood tall, also dispelling the boundless waves of blood.

In the midst of the blood sea stood one person alone, the Great Xing Mountain elder Luo Lie.

Luo Lie’s expression was icy as he gazed downward at his chest, spotting a trail of blood running through him, with fierce Sword Qi wreaking havoc within, shredding countless threads of flesh and blood.

“Upright and Righteous Qi!”

“Meng Fuyao!”

With gritted teeth, Luo Lie looked up and ahead.

Li Qiankun remained silent as a sword light flew out and transformed into a figure, revealing a middle-aged man with white hair.

“Brother Dao, long time no see!”

The white-haired middle-aged man smiled, gazing at Luo Lie, who was pale from the sword injury, and asked, “Should I call you the Sect Master of Snow God Mountain, Yuwen Shang, or perhaps Corpse Blood Divine Monarch Zheng Yin, or maybe Great Xing Mountain’s Luo Lie?”

“Hmph!!”

Luo Lie let out a cold snort, and his figure transformed again, this time into a young man in a red robe with white hair, “Old Ghost Meng, what a schemer. Even I fell for your trick. When did you discover it?”

“Ha!”

Meng Fuyao laughed, “If you wish to keep something secret, you must not do it yourself. Although you have the skill to deceive the heavens, can there truly be a scheme without any flaws in this world?”
