Chapter 41: Chapter 41: Bold

"Sect Leader, can I still enter the Blood Pool even after the gate to the other side is opened?" asked Zixin.

"Of course, you can enter even now if you want to. The Nether Tree has absorbed a lot of blood so it won’t be affected by one person using the Blood Pool." answered the sect leader.

"Great!" said Zixin and to a hidden corner, took off his loincloth and put it inside his storage ring and quickly entered the Blood Pool. Zixin completely submerged himself inside the pool and once inside, he was hit with a wave of sleepiness and he fell asleep almost immediately. Once he was asleep, the Blood Pool got to work, entering Zixin’s body through the pores and started the Bloodline Awakening process.

While Zixin was deep in slumber, the Sect Leader stood in front of the tree with a thick black book in hand with the title written in an unknown language. The sect leader flipped the pages of the book and stopped at the page with the Nether Tree’s illusion and a space crack in front of it.

The sect leader’s eyes became crimson red like he was possessed, veins appeared on his forehead like he was in great pain then he bit off his own tongue, only after he bit off his tongue did he start to read the content written below the illustration.

[Ath coth haphon de feeveth anand uth dho halm ang biing abath seduthin on de nodhal od! Omen de gath oth geth ed halm cou mth od...]

No one could understand what the sect leader was saying but it sounded evil and scary. Outside the Demonic Sect, dark clouds gathered and released an extremely possessive aura with lightning striking down anyone or anything. Seeing this, the disciples remained hidden in their cultivation caves or mountains.

While all the disciples were hiding in their caves, there was one disciple sneaking around like a rat until he reached the Training Hall and entered a training room. Inside this training room was a human puppet placed on the wall like some form of artwork. The disciple walked directly to the puppet and put a spirit stone on its chest then the puppet came to life.

"Is it finally time?" asked the puppet with a smile.

"Yes, Young Master, I finally managed to obtain it today. I don’t know why but the elders have disappeared, no one is watching over the sect’s facilities." said the disciple.

"I don’t care about that for now. Just give me what I ordered you to get, I’m tired of being dead." said the puppet. The disciples missed and took what seemed to be two hearts that were still beating. The hearts were very beautiful, with golden lines around them that created patterns of three characters.

The hearts resonated with the puppet as he took them and plunged them inside the hole in his chest. Once inside his chest, veins and arteries grew on the two hearts and connected with the body.

Moan*

"Bao, you’ve done exceptionally well this time. I will definitely reward you greatly for your hard work. Now, let’s quickly leave the sect while the security is lax." said the puppet as his recession became more rosy, his chest wound healed and then vitality washed over him.

"Yes, Young Master. I have already prepared a secret passage that we’ll take to leave the sect."

"Good, lead the way."

Once Bao and the human puppet were outside, the puppet looked at the sky with an incredulous gaze.

"It can’t be. It can’t be!"

"Young Master, what is it?"

"Hahaha! I thought the Demonic Sect was home to a bunch of crazy people but I was wrong, I was completely wrong! The Demonic Sect is home to bloodthirsty psychos who’d even sacrifice their home planet for strength! How bold you are, how bold you are. Demonic Sect, will you even survive after becoming enemies with the entire world? Only time will tell but you’ve earned the respect of I, Long Tian!"

...

In the underground cavern, black smoke permeated from the sect leader’s body and was devoured by the Nether Tree and when he finished reading the book’s content, the Nether Tree grew taller and larger at a rate visible to the naked eye. Its trunk became thicker and the red fire leaves burned brighter. When the Nether was about a hundred meters tall, the red flames turned black and the tree trunk split open to reveal an abyss like eyeball with a grey flame as a pupil.

The temperature in the cave dropped significantly but the sect leader and the elders didn’t care about all that and immediately knelt down in front of the tree with fanatic expressions, even Wan Shui was the same.

[Dong Shilin, you’ve accomplished something that no one in the history of this world has managed to do, not even your predecessors could do what you did. For your hard work in these thousands of years, I grant you the status of a Class Five Demon. Continue to work hard.] said the Nether Tree in a harsh, cold and hoarse voice as a tree root pierced through the sect leader’s skull and he was engulfed in grey flames

[As for the rest of you, you shall receive your Demon Ranks according to your strength.] said the tree and pierced each elder on the forehead including Tiger, Fatso and Wan Shui. After being pierced on the forehead, everyone started to transform into a demon.

[I almost forgot about you.] said the Nether Tree while looking at the Blood Pool, its gaze seemed to see through the thick blood and its roots quickly reached Zixin’s body and tried to pierce it but failed.

[What a strong body you have. I shall make an exception for you and give you a unique bloodline.] said the Nether Tree as the weak roots were replaced by strong ones that easily punctured through Zixin’s skin and something was poured into him.

[Now, time to open the portal and invade this realm. Dong Shilin, you really did something great!]
