Imperial Cultivation-Chapter 1128 - 1124: Blood God

"That guy actually escaped." Lu Xiaolu stomped her foot forcefully.

She was extremely angry and said bitterly, "I shouldn’t have let him go."

Chu Zhiyuan chuckled, "Senior Sister, it wasn’t that you wanted to let him go; he has a life-preserving Secret Technique and escaped."

Lu Xiaolu said, "That guy’s aptitude is too strong. After learning this lesson, he won’t return to Qinglian Sea. He’ll definitely bury himself in cultivation, and it’ll be even harder to eliminate him."

Chu Zhiyuan nodded.

This was indeed correct.

Having had this escape experience, the slender young man would be even harder to kill.

With his exceptional aptitude, the next time they met, he might already be a top-tier expert.

By then, it wouldn’t be Lu Xiaolu chasing him, but him chasing Lu Xiaolu.

"Junior Brother, think of a plan!" Lu Xiaolu scolded, "Don’t be so slow!"

Chu Zhiyuan said, "Let’s give it a try then."

Lu Xiaolu’s spirits lifted, and she showed a smile, "I knew you’d have a way!... Can you sense him?"

Chu Zhiyuan said, "I don’t know, Senior Sister. Please give me your Sword."

Lu Xiaolu handed over the shiny Longsword.

Chu Zhiyuan grasped the Sword with his right hand and aligned his left fingers like a sword, gently tracing the Sword.

Super Sensing Illumination spans a hundred miles.

Fifteen miles away, on the mountain peak, the slender young man suddenly appeared.

He emerged from the Void, as if surfacing suddenly from deep water.

His whole body was enveloped in a layer of faint, elusive red light.

He steadied himself against a tree, as if a skeleton standing by the tree.

His body trembled slightly, so weak that a gust of wind could knock him down.

Chu Zhiyuan smiled.

"You’ve sensed him?" Lu Xiaolu asked hurriedly.

Chu Zhiyuan nodded.

Even without Super Sense, simply relying on the residual aura on the Sword, he could sense the location.

The aura of the Demon Suppressing Divine Tree reacts to him.

Lu Xiaolu was excited, "Then let’s chase!"

Chu Zhiyuan and Lu Xiaolu glided gracefully, and in a blink, they arrived at the tree top behind the slender young man.

Looking down at the skeleton-like figure, Lu Xiaolu scrutinized him and turned to look at Chu Zhiyuan.

Chu Zhiyuan nodded, confirming he was the one.

Lu Xiaolu curled her red lips and snorted, "Serves you right!"

Alert to the sound, the slender young man suddenly turned and looked up at Chu Zhiyuan and Lu Xiaolu.

Lu Xiaolu snorted, "Run! Keep running!"

The slender young man forced a bitter smile, his face woeful, "The heavens want me dead!"

The Blood Escape Technique is the pinnacle escape Miracle Technique of the Myriad Blood Sect, rarely mastered, and having lucked into mastering it, he couldn’t escape.

One could only say his luck had run out, and the heavens wished to destroy him.

Lu Xiaolu curled her red lips and snorted, "Your Myriad Blood Sect shouldn’t exist. You should all be wiped out!"

She turned and said, "Junior Brother, kill him then? Can’t be bothered talking nonsense with him."

Three streaks of white light flew out from Chu Zhiyuan’s sleeve, shooting toward the slender young man.

At the same time, he and Lu Xiaolu retreated together, floating like feathers blown away by a gentle breeze.

The two landed on the tree top several meters away, watching the slender young man wield his Sword.

The three streaks of white light formed a tripod shape, instantly piercing his Sword Net, and diving into his shoulders and chest.

Then golden light flickered.

But afterwards, red light flashed, entwining with the golden light.

Chu Zhiyuan frowned and shook his head.

Lu Xiaolu saw the situation, "The Demon Suppressing Saber can’t do anything against him?"

Chu Zhiyuan shook his head, "It’s not as restraining, far less effective than against demons."

Lu Xiaolu said, "That’s more like it. If it was this restraining against evil demons as well, the Demon Suppressing Saber would be terrifying."

Though it is already terrifying enough now.

"Pssh!"

Amid the whistle, a Blood Arrow shot from the slender young man’s chest, soon followed by blood welling from his shoulders.

His skeleton-like face showed terror.

He discovered his Heaven-Stealing Sun-Swapping Technique had been broken, and his cultivation was being destroyed.

Having lost control over the blood aura, within a blink his body oozed blood from several places.

They were the wounds previously inflicted by Lu Xiaolu, no longer able to seal off the fresh blood.

He turned into a figure drenched in blood, carrying a bloody scent mixed with a strange fragrance.

Lu Xiaolu showed an uncomfortable expression, chest felt irritable and nauseous.

The bloody scent mixed with the strange fragrance made the smell even more nauseating.

Seeing it was not right, Chu Zhiyuan said, "Senior Sister, let’s go."

Lu Xiaolu glared at the blood-covered slender young man, resentfully saying, "Is he not dead yet?"

"Not far from death," Chu Zhiyuan said. "The Demon Suppressing Saber has destroyed his cultivation."

"Serves him right!" Lu Xiaolu said with hatred.

Chu Zhiyuan said, "I estimate he will suffer quite a bit before he dies."

After his cultivation was completely destroyed, the backlash would arrive, and the scrawny young man would endure torment before dying.

"...Let’s go," Lu Xiaolu said. "We can come back later to see if he’s dead."

In the end, she didn’t want to subject her eyes to the sight, nor her nose to the smell.

"Let’s go," Chu Zhiyuan said with a smile.

From his sleeve emerged several flying knives, which directly plunged into the scrawny young man’s head.

In the next moment, the scrawny young man slowly fell to the ground.

"Bang," a dull sound echoed as he fell heavily, motionless.

Blood still gushed from his body.

Chu Zhiyuan took a step forward, and the Shadowless Sword flicked open his clothing, the tip of the sword picked up a blood-red token.

Then, together with Lu Xiaolu, he moved a hundred meters to the mountain peak.

A few smooth stones stood atop the peak, and he placed the red token on a stone to examine it.

Under the Super Sensing Illumination, the scrawny young man’s skin had already charred.

In the blink of an eye, he had turned into a skeleton, a bone burnt by great fire.

This was the backlash of cultivating the mental method of the Myriad Blood Sect.

Lu Xiaolu said, "Junior Brother, is this the token of the Myriad Blood Sect?"

Chu Zhiyuan shook his head and said, "But the other seven didn’t have this token."

The seven other Myriad Blood Sect experts, who had been decapitated, did not have this token on them.

Lu Xiaolu said, "So this isn’t the token of the Myriad Blood Sect?"

Chu Zhiyuan said, "But looking at it, it definitely has some connection to the Myriad Blood Sect."

Lu Xiaolu snorted, "Then what is it exactly?"

Chu Zhiyuan shook his head, "Let’s go back and ask Senior Sister Qi."

"Then let’s go back and ask," Lu Xiaolu urged, her curiosity hard to suppress.

...

"This is the Blood God Order," Qi Qingmei said coldly.

They were in an icy cave, and a group of Guanghan Palace beauties gathered around to inspect this token, which resembled red jade.

"What is the Blood God Order?" Lu Xiaolu hurriedly asked. "Senior Sister, don’t leave us hanging, tell us the whole thing, we know nothing about it."

"This should have been bestowed by an emissary of the Blood God Hall," Qi Qingmei said. "Are you aware of the Blood God Hall?"

"The Blood God Hall..." All the women frowned, expressions of disgust on their faces.

Chu Zhiyuan looked curious.

He truly hadn’t heard of the Blood God Hall before.

Lu Xiaolu said, "Junior Brother, if the Myriad Blood Sect is evil, then the Blood God Hall is evil amongst evils. The emissaries of the Blood God Hall possess eerie skills, and what’s more terrifying is that wherever they go, they spread the divine skills of the Blood God Hall, creating more demons, and these are top-tier demons known as Divine Sons and Daughters."

Chu Zhiyuan frowned.

Qi Qingmei shook her head, "These Divine Sons and Daughters, each one is a top-tier demon, wreaking havoc."

Chu Zhiyuan said solemnly, "Can’t we destroy the Blood God Hall?"

"We don’t know where it is, even if we want to destroy it, we don’t have the strength," Lu Xiaolu said. "It seems this fellow is a Divine Son? ...Did we kill a Divine Son?"

Her eyes sparkled, and she said excitedly, "This is going to be a big problem."

Qi Qingmei nodded slightly, "Indeed, it will be a big problem."

Chu Zhiyuan said, "Will the Blood God Hall come after us?"

Lu Xiaolu nodded vigorously, "Killing a Divine Son means going against the Blood God Hall, they will definitely try to kill us. It’s said that the Blood God Hall’s skills are so strange, they are impossible to guard against."

Chu Zhiyuan smiled, "Strange skills?"

Qi Qingmei said sternly, "The skills of the Blood God Hall are akin to the Great Demons, impossible to defend against, sudden attacks. The second type can kill invisibly with secret techniques of miraculous skill, so they must be guarded against."

Lu Xiaolu said, "Senior Sister, since we can’t defend against them, how do we guard against them?"

Qi Qingmei said, "We still have to find a way to be vigilant, don’t be careless,... quite a few disciples of our Four Great Sects have fallen at the hands of the Blood God Hall."

Lu Xiaolu asked, "Do we at Guanghan Palace have any?"

Qi Qingmei’s delicate face turned ominous, "At least two seniors died at the hands of emissaries from the Blood God Hall."

"Truly detestable people," Lu Xiaolu snorted, "This time is a good opportunity!"

Qi Qingmei lightly raised an eyebrow.

Lu Xiaolu looked at Chu Zhiyuan, "With Junior Brother here, we’re not afraid of a sneak attack from the Blood God Hall!"

She had strong confidence in Chu Zhiyuan’s sensory abilities.

Chu Zhiyuan said, "Senior Sister Qi, have our Heavenly Sword Sect also had disciples die by the Blood God Hall’s hands?"

"More, at least a dozen," Qi Qingmei nodded slowly.

Chu Zhiyuan’s expression grew heavy, "This truly is a good opportunity."

He picked up the Blood God Order with the tip of his sword, making it spin in the air before thrusting his sword out.

"Ding..."

The Blood God Order halted in midair, securely catching the tip of the sword’s thrust, yet remaining unscathed.

Its hardness was beyond imagination.
