Chapter 534: Chapter 508: The Resurgence of the Blood Spirit Sect_1

Cloud Wilderness, a brand-new wooden cottage, built next to Pang Jian’s.

This three-story cottage was finely repaired and quite more elegant and spacious than Pang Jian’s.

It belonged to Li Yuqing.

"Pang Jian, come over for a drink,"

Li Yuqing pushed open the window on the third floor of the cottage and called out to the small and simple wooden house, "It’s so dull to cultivate every day. I’ve already summoned Li Jie over, and in a couple of days, this place will liven up."

She contentedly settled down in Panshi Fragment Land.

Now and then, she would discuss cultivation insights with Pang Jian or invite him to admire the moon and share drinks.

She seemed quite satisfied with life in the Fragment Land.

Not only was she in no hurry to leave, she also sent Li Jie a message to come down, looking like she planned to settle in this Fragment Land for the long haul.

"Oh."

Pang Jian, roused from his meditation by her voice, obediently flew up.

That had become the pattern of their recent interactions.

...

Yao Junhong sat atop a huge willow tree in "Plant Cave Heaven," observing the changes in the cave heaven below while keeping an eye on any activity from Pang Jian’s side.

"The two of them are quite well-matched,"

Yao Junhong said with a smile, speaking to Xu Yu through the Sword Command, "In the Fragment Land’s Plant Cave Heaven, we can now cultivate high-quality spiritual herbs. Keep an eye out recently and collect more quality flower and plant seeds."

"Where is Wu Sujin?" Xu Yu asked curiously, gossiping, "In the small Panshi Fragment Land, Pang Jian has to deal with two tricky girls; can he really handle it with aplomb?"

"All is peaceful for now."

Yao Junhong gazed towards the direction of the Forbidden Land of Thunder God and said, "The girl from Pure Land is in Thunder Cave Heavens, monitoring the unusual changes with Elder Mu. According to her, once Thunder Cave Heavens fully form and can be entered by flesh and blood, she will arrange for her junior disciple to come over."

"Shifu!"

A Spiritual Soul of Qi Qingsong flew swiftly from a far-off mining area and stopped in front of Yao Junhong, grinning, "Who are you bad-mouthing now?"

"I’m talking about you!"

Yao Junhong snorted coldly and continued, "If you, lad, would put in a little effort, how could you have been surpassed in cultivation by Zhou Qingchen, and that young Dong Tianze? All you do is sleep all day, not caring about important matters!"

"Shifu, you haven’t forgotten that I practice Dream Sword, have you?" protested Qi Qingsong.

"I see you are not comprehending the Sword Dao in your dreams," Yao Junhong glared with irritation, exclaiming, "Our generation, including Elder Jiang, cannot reach the realm of a True God. The future of the Sword Tower lies with Pang Jian, Chen Weihuang, Hu, you, and Miss Zhuang!"

"All we can do is to help you by clearing obstacles as much as possible, watching you achieve Divine Enthronement in these troubled times."

"If I am fortunate enough to see a world where multiple Sword Gods coexist, then as your teacher, I will have no regrets in death."

He was self-aware, knowing that the cultivation potential of himself, Xu Yu, Guanghe, and Wang Ce was limited to the Immortal Realm.

This era was destined to belong to the young.

Many current True Gods might fall in the upcoming racial battles.

Many positions of True Godhood would be vacated, and the elite of the new Human Race generation would have the chance to vie for those thrones.

Every surge of Alien Tribes and cosmic calamity inevitably leads to a turn of True Gods.

With old gods falling and new ones shining, the course of a Sect for thousands of years could be determined.

If the Sword Tower can seize this rare opportunity and produce several True Gods, it will be able to proudly dominate the Purgatory World for the next few millennia.

"Becoming a god? Easier said than done," the Spiritual Soul of Qi Qingsong wore a bitter smile, saying, "Even the likes of our Tower Master failed in the quest for Godhood, and we lack confidence."

Pu Zhaotian’s failure was a harsh blow to the spirit of the Sword Tower disciples.

Inner Gate disciples like Qi Qingsong regarded Pu Zhaotian as a pillar of support, firmly believing in his certain success.

His downfall made many lose hope, thinking if such a formidable Sword Dao prodigy couldn’t ascend smoothly to Godhood, then how could they?

"His failure has other reasons," Yao Junhong said with a stern face, "If it wasn’t for an accident, his Divine Enthronement was a sure thing! Besides, even if he failed the first time, he will succeed on the second go!"

"Throughout history, there’s only been one person who challenged for True Godhood a second time and succeeded," Qi Qingsong cried.

Yao Junhong said, "I believe he will be the second."

"I believe so too."

The voice of the Great Elder Jiang Ran sounded.

He stepped out of the Space Teleportation Array and swiftly arrived at this Plant Cave Heaven guarded by Yao Junhong, saying, "Soon, some petty criminals might come to this Fragment Land to snoop around."

"I will also stay here to help Pang Jian guard for a while."

"We don’t want more people like Li Chu, who are stubbornly aiming for the cave heavens within the Fragment Land."

Qi Qingsong hastily greeted with his Spiritual Soul, "I’ve seen the Great Elder!"

Knowing that Jiang Ran and his shifu had matters to discuss, he swiftly flew towards the mining area to continue refining his Spiritual Soul with the underworld flames, aiming to stabilize his realm as soon as possible.

...

The Second Realm, Hongdu Fragment Land.

The territory larger than Panshi, Hongdu is the leading great fragment land in the whole Second Realm, always a stronghold for individual cultivators from all over.

Including, but not limited to, the Second Realm.

Individual cultivators from the Third Realm and also those from the First Realm frequently visited Hongdu Fragment Land.

The once-famed Blood Spirit Sect, which had a brief moment of glory in the Second Realm, rose and fell in Hongdu.

In the north of the fragment land, through a dense forest shrouded in miasma and poison fog, Dong Tianze walked alone with a cold expression.

Some individual cultivators that lurked around, as well as those who practiced treacherous and demonic spells, merely glancing at him, would sensibly move aside.

Encountering no obstruction on his way, Dong Tianze arrived at an unimpeded blood-colored smoky valley.

Bleached bones were visible everywhere in the valley, and in many abandoned blood pools, poisonous insects wriggled in dense swarms.

Smashed spell platforms, destroyed buildings, crevices in the earth torn by sharp blades - all bore witness to the bloody annihilation battle that had occurred here.

"The Blood Spirit Sect was the origin of the Blood Moon and Yin Spirit Temple in the Third Realm, and at its peak, we too had several Immortal Realm powerhouses."

From one of the blood pools, teeming with crawling poison insects, a deep and hoarse voice suddenly emerged.

As the voice sounded, grass and leaves began to whirl, and the poison insects suddenly burst open.

The exploded insects turned into wisps of blood-colored clouds, filling the blood mist in the valley.

"Is it you who’s calling together the disciples of the Blood Moon and Yin Spirit Temple, claiming to rejuvenate the majesty of the Blood Spirit Sect?"

Dong Tianze, looking at the scattering grass leaves in the center, where a hook-nosed old man had suddenly appeared, said coldly, "The secret techniques of the Blood Spirit Sect you’ve spread have led many to their deaths."

"Those who died were naturally not disciples of our Blood Spirit Sect." The old man stepped out of the blood pool and approached Dong Tianze, gave him a deep look, and smiled, "I have a way to dissolve the phoenix seal on your forehead. As a son of the Blood Spirit Sect, you shouldn’t have become a Heavenly Phoenix Guard."

"Son, this is the secret skill to melt away the phoenix seal, your life should be in your own hands."

"As for that girl who currently possesses the inheritance of the Heavenly Phoenix, you can also use this technique to reverse it and absorb her essence blood!"

He tossed a spell towards him.

"*Plop*!"

Dong Tianze, not bothering to catch the spell, let it fall to the ground and merely glanced down, "Blood God Skill?"

"Mm, this is a technique that can lead you to godhood."

The hook-nosed old man backed away step by step, his aura quietly withdrawing, "I’ve been waiting here many days just to pass this Blood God Skill to you. Son, whether to cultivate it or not is entirely up to you."

He enunciated each word, "But your identity as the son can’t be changed."

"Son? Who ordained it?" Dong Tianze scoffed.

"Naturally, the God Spirit. The one that our Blood Spirit Sect has always worshipped!" The old man, first fanatically, then chuckling, said, "He has appeared in the Purgatory World, I can feel His presence. Son, just cultivate the Blood God Skill, be it nature’s spiritual energy or Filth Alien Power, you will adapt with ease."

"Whether you are in the First Realm or have fallen to the Fifth Realm, you will be able to establish yourself."

"Once the Purgatory Cataclysm passes, our Blood Spirit Sect will be one of the strongest forces, and you will be our leader. Believe me, in that era, you should have already joined the ranks of True Gods."

"Becoming a Blood God, with that God Spirit as your guide, soaring through the galaxies of the Outer Domain would be logical."

The old man, with his unclear background and mystical babbling, disappeared from the valley after this.

Dong Tianze, who had been sensing covertly all this while, couldn’t determine the old man’s level of cultivation even after he left.

"Blood God Skill, the path to godhood?"

With a wave of his hand, the spell from the ground was drawn into Dong Tianze’s wristband, "Luo Hongyan once was the Saintess of the Blood Spirit Sect, yet in the Absolute Sky Forbidden Land, the force that dissipated there was indeed that of a God Spirit manifest in the world. Was she taken over by possession, or was she originally a God Spirit?"

"If she is a God Spirit, then was it she who furtively incited the resurgence of the Blood Spirit Sect?"

Dong Tianze brooded with a somber face.

"Remnants of the Blood Spirit Sect!"

A boat bearing the flag of "Gui Sacrificial Sect" suddenly appeared in the sky above the valley, and several disciples of the Gui Sacrificial Sect, without a word, dove down and hurled Spiritual Artifacts at Dong Tianze.

"Soul Wandering Realm!"

Dong Tianze, not able to see through the old man’s realm of cultivation but able to instantly discern the realm of the Gui Sacrificial Sect invaders, coldly clarified, "I am Dong Tianze of Yin Spirit Temple, not a person of the Blood Spirit Sect."

"You dare deny it? With your vigorous Qi and Blood and your soul aura distant and chilling, you are clearly a person of the Blood Spirit Sect!"

"Focus on physical cultivation and adept at sinister soul secret techniques, you are the remnants of the Blood Spirit Sect!"

"Recently, those like you, remnants of the Blood Spirit Sect, have started to become active again in the Second Realm! And you, standing directly in the site of the Blood Spirit Sect’s extermination, still dare to argue?"

"No mistake!"

The Gui Sacrificial Sect’s attackers gave him no opportunity to argue further and smashed their Spiritual Artifacts down upon him.
