Chapter 461: Chapter 305 Breaking the Formation_2

He didn’t know how long he had been escaping,

when a huge stone door appeared at the end of this cave that was more than ten zhang in diameter.

Seeing this, Xu Yuan did not hesitate and immediately charged towards the stone door.

Sensing an obstacle ahead, Li Qingyan subconsciously looked up to see the stone door carved with dragons and other creatures, while Bai Muxi snuggled her head into Xu Yuan’s chest like a little bird seeking refuge.

"Buzz!"

Unexpectedly,

there was no sensation of impact on their bodies, and after a humming sound, the three of them directly passed through the stone door.

Upon entering the stone door, there was a different world within.

It was a massive cave shrouded in a blood fog, endlessly dark in width, length, and height, beyond what the eye could see.

The stone door was a kind of restriction, but due to the passage of a long time, the spiritual power had almost completely drained away, leaving behind only a negligible minor illusion.

After entering the stone door and taking a glance around, Xu Yuan sensed the presence of numerous high-level ghosts and did not stop, continuing to race deeper into the interior.

The cave was very dark, and after speeding through for some time, a cold light suddenly shown through the blood fog a thousand zhang ahead.

As he drew closer, Xu Yuan saw the light was coming from countless unknown luminous gemstones embedded in the ground.

The luminous gemstones formed continuous lines all the way to the end of his vision, creating a pathway on the ground, and along both sides of this pathway were numerous prostrating ghosts.

"......"

Bai Muxi’s breathing became slightly rapid as she sensed the disperse aura of these ghosts.

This was the Blood Nest that countless generations of people from their Underground City had longed to reach.

Yet, it was only upon her arrival here that she truly realized how powerful these ghosts were.

Thinking this, she subconsciously looked up at the noble side profile of the young master, only to find that he was staring indifferently at the end of the gemstone pathway.

Following his gaze, Bai Muxi’s eyes flashed with astonishment.

She saw an altar.

An altar that looked almost exactly like the central altar in their Underground City!

Although the appearance was the same, the altar in this Blood Nest was much larger than the one in their city.

It was about a hundred zhang high, resembling a giant beast crouching in the darkness; as they drew nearer, they could faintly see the altar emanating strands of blood light.

Standing below the altar, Xu Yuan silently put the two women down.

Li Qingyan landed on her lotus boots, frowning as she examined the altar, and said softly,

"Changtian, this altar is..."

"Blood Nest."

The cold and noble voice came from the top of the altar, and a charming woman appeared at the end of the altar steps, "This altar is the Blood Nest where we store the Life Origin of our ghosts."

As she spoke, the woman tossed a dark crystal that streaked through the void and raced towards Xu Yuan.

"Snap."

Xu Yuan casually caught it, sensed it for a moment, casually popped it into his mouth to eat, and stepped up the stairs, saying with a smile,

"Luo Xiran, I remember your true form is a flesh monster; how did you become human-like?"

"You thought my original form ugly, so I reshaped this one," the seductive woman said with her arms wrapped around her chest, giggling softly, "If you’re not satisfied, I can change again."

"Change?" Xu Yuan raised an eyebrow.

"Hmm... just like this."

The gaze of Luo Xiran, standing atop the altar, shifted towards Li Qingyan at Xu Yuan’s side.

Suddenly, her seductive figure began to shrink and transform, and a red-robed, spirited woman appeared in Xu Yuan’s field of vision:

"How about it, I can take on any form you like."

"...." Li Qingyan.

"..." Xu Yuan stared at the "Li Qingyan" above for a few moments, then with a stomp, his figure instantly reached the top of the altar:

"Enough, spare the chatter. The Barbarian King is likely breaking through by now; we need to make a quick escape."

Luo Xiran, with her hands crossed over her chest, nudged with her mouth towards everything on top of the altar:

"Do whatever you want to do yourself; you can move anything here. If you need my cooperation, just say so."

Xu Yuan glanced at her quizzically,

"Are you not afraid that I’ll do something else?"

"Afraid, but it seems I don’t have much choice right now,"

Luo Xiran watched Xu Yuan, her equally crimson pupils showing a hint of amusement, "Besides... if you do something strange, these two women would probably die."

Xu Yuan huffed lightly and said no more, looking around.

The layout on this altar was almost the same as in the "Cangyuan Chronicles" from his previous life, only with many more intricate details.

Surveying his surroundings, his gaze locked onto the center of the altar.

There, complex formation patterns were engraved on the ground, and in the center of those patterns was a huge blood pool.

Xu Yuan teleported directly to the edge of the blood pool, staring at the boiling viscous solution below:

"Can I go down?"

"You want to enter the Blood Nest?"

Luo Xiran paced slowly toward him, wearing "Li Qingyan’s" appearance with a smile as a reminder, "I don’t mind, but once you go in, the consciousness that belongs to humans will rapidly dissipate."

Within the Blood Nest, where the Life Origin is most potent, ghostification would accelerate by a hundredfold or a thousandfold.

Xu Yuan fell silent for a moment, staring at the ’Li Qingyan’ in front of him and said in a low voice:

"Give me the Blood Divine Stone Jade Pendant."

"Alright."

Luo Xiran extended her hand crisply, "puchi," plunged it into her own chest, and pulled out a blood-colored jade pendant, saying with a smile, "Here you go."

Xu Yuan took it, felt it for a moment to confirm it was the real thing, then glanced at the Wrapped Chest Princess at the edge of the altar.

"....."

Their eyes met, and Li Qingyan immediately understood and tossed the jade pendant in her hand to Xu Yuan.

Luo Xiran asked with a smile:

"These two jade pendants were made by the people from Jiatiange to control us, what do you plan to do with them in the Blood Nest?"

"You’ll know soon enough."

Holding the two almost identical jade pendants in his hand, Xu Yuan gave Luo Xiran a gentle smile, "If the Barbarian King arrives before I get out, help me stall him for a bit."

Without waiting for Luo Xiran’s response, Xu Yuan jumped straight into the bubbling blood pool......

Silence spread over the altar.

Watching Xu Yuan’s figure disappear into the blood pool, Luo Xiran’s crimson pupils then shifted to the two human women at the edge of the altar, asking with a sigh:

"Hey, is Changtian always this much of a lone ranger?"

"...." Bai Muxi was stared at for a moment, then immediately hid behind Li Qingyan without speaking.

Li Qingyan, on the other hand, met the other’s gaze calmly.

A few moments passed,

Li Qingyan suddenly spoke up, her voice chilly and hoarse:

"What Changtian is like normally is none of your business."

Luo Xiran’s lips curled up at these words, her heroic eyes sparkling with interest:

"Changtian is already a ghost, a person who will live until the end of the world with me, why wouldn’t it be my business?"

Li Qingyan’s phoenix eyes carried a hint of mockery as she looked at the Luo Xiran who looked exactly like herself:

"Appeasing me by using my own appearance, is this what the Ghost King is like?"

"’My own appearance’?"

Luo Xiran lifted a finger to tap her fair cheek, her crimson pupils filled with a hint of admiration:

"You’re called Li Qingyan, right? You must be the Saintess from one of the Sects. I saw everything you did earlier, you have guts and wisdom, why not you also become...."

Before she could finish,

"Buzz———"

A massive buzzing noise echoed throughout the entire cave!

The abrupt change caught both Luo Xiran and Li Qingyan off guard, prompting them to look towards the blood pool.

Li Qingyan asked with a frown:

"Ghost, what is this?"

"How would I know?"

Luo Xiran’s phoenix eyes grew serious: "Weren’t you the one who came in with Changtian?"

"...."

At this point, neither of them spoke any further.

As the buzzing started, the entire cavern began to shake, and in a flash, countless blood-colored lines appeared around the mighty altar.

These were formation patterns.

But unlike the current Dayan’s formation patterns, these came to life and began to undulate as soon as they filled with light!

And these emerging patterns were just the beginning,

From the altar as the center, innumerable thick blood-colored formation patterns emerged on the ground, spreading through the darkness of the cave.

In a few moments, the massive Blood Nest had transformed into a gigantic formation!

Eerie blood light illuminated the entire pitch-black cave, and the viscous liquid in the blood pool also gradually began to boil!
