Chapter 919: Chapter 939: The Path of Refining, Ten Thousand Spirit Blood Array_1

Lin Chen walked out of the room and saw the three demons in the courtyard. After half a year of the dragon blood baptism and repeated sleep evolution, they had completely changed from their previous states.

The Snow Dragon Leopard King’s body had grown much larger, standing at least fifteen meters tall, with a body length of at least thirty meters, and a weight of at least a hundred tons. What’s more outrageous was that it had grown a pair of blood-red horns on its head.

Bi Fang’s size hadn’t changed much, but its pair of eyes had turned golden-red, like red agate flashing with golden light. Its whole body’s feathers had also become more blood-red, looking like burning flames.

All of Vine Demoness Mei Nu’s vines had changed color, with emerald green interspersed with noticeable crimson streaks, giving off a more bloodthirsty aura.

The strength of the three demons had greatly improved. Bi Fang’s background was evident, as it had now reached the middle stage of its true body. Even the flames it spewed had changed from golden-yellow to blue-green, with a significant increase in temperature and power.

Vine Demoness Mei Nu had originally been at the peak of transformation, comparable to Nascent Soul Great Perfection. She had been reduced to the Nascent Soul level by Senior Sister and, under Lin Chen’s guidance, had now successfully broken through to the initial stage of the true body.

Just like the Vine Demoness, the Snow Dragon Leopard King had also made a breakthrough, entering the early stage of its true body.

Moreover, because they had absorbed the blood of the True Dragon, their combat power was much more formidable than other demonic beasts or cultivators at the same level. This was similar to Lin Chen’s Nascent Soul overpowering other Nascent Souls.

Lin Chen was very satisfied.

This trip to the True Dragon Secret Realm seemingly only resulted in half a pond of blood, a sword, and a few decent magical treasures. However, it had greatly increased Lin Chen’s overall combat power.

Lin Chen went to check on his mother and found that she had already entered the Golden Core Realm after absorbing the True Dragon’s blood he had left for her, which greatly relieved him.

Entering the Golden Core Realm had significantly prolonged her lifespan, giving her more time to enhance her strength.

Lin Chen spent some more time studying Reducing Land to Inches and the Emperor’s Scripture of Heaven. Still, apart from gaining faster speed due to his increased strength, he obtained nothing else.

Although Lin Chen’s strength had greatly improved, he was still at the Nascent Soul stage and had not fundamentally changed.

While Lin Chen was comprehending the Emperor’s Scripture, the voice of a middle-aged man came from the door.

"Mr. Lin, are you there?"

Lin Chen put away the Emperor’s Scripture and went to the door, seeing a burly middle-aged man with thick eyebrows and an imposing face. Behind the man stood Su Mubai in a white robe.

Yue Shanhe, the Sect Master of Ten Thousand Swords Sect?

Lin Chen opened the prohibition of the small courtyard and walked out: "Sect Master Yue."

Yue Shanhe cupped his hands: "Greetings, Mr. Lin. I apologize for the abrupt visit. Please don’t mind."

Lin Chen laughed: "Sect Master Yue is too polite. What’s the matter?"

Yue Shanhe nodded: "I wanted to ask you if you know where the Cave Master is?"

Lin Chen shook his head: "He left half a year ago, probably to gather herbs. I don’t know where he went."

Yue Shanhe furrowed his brows: "Do you know the whereabouts of your three senior brothers and sisters?"

Lin Chen shook his head: "When I returned, Third Senior Sister was already gone. I don’t know where she went. As for the other two senior brothers, they often wander around the world, and I have no idea where they are."

Yue Shanhe looked disappointed: "That’s troublesome."

Lin Chen asked: "What happened that requires their presence"

Yue Shanhe spoke solemnly: "One of the seven cities under my Ten Thousand Swords Sect, Kong Yuan City, was destroyed by someone ten days ago. Not a single living person was left in the city. According to the information, they might have all been refined by the Ten Thousand Spirits Blood Array..."

Lin Chen widened his eyes in shock, exclaiming: "Are they all dead?"

"Yes, the entire city had at least 400,000 people, including over a thousand cultivators. None were spared. All turned into white bones, their flesh and blood completely vanished," replied Yue Shanhe, his face grave.

Yue Shanhe continued: "The person in charge of our sect, who was based in a nearby city, went to investigate and found traces of array formations around the city. Based on the residue left, we speculate that it might have been the Ancient Evil Array - Ten Thousand Spirits Blood Array."

Lin Chen asked: "I am new to the Cultivation World, so I don’t know much. Sect Master Yue, can you tell me about this Ten Thousand Spirits Blood Array?"

Yue Shanhe replied: "There are countless paths on the road to cultivation including Qi Cultivation, Alchemy, and Body Refining. In ancient times, some evil sects practiced the Refining Path."

"In simple terms, the Refining Path is about refining demonic beasts or people, absorbing their blood essence, and turning them into Blood Pills. Consuming Blood Pills could rapidly increase one’s strength."

"The Refining Path was too evil. Moreover, a sect refining a powerful figure’s disciple led to that figure rallying many experts to completely extinguish the evil sect, destroying the cultivation techniques of the Refining Path, and causing it to be lost for a time."

Who would have expected, that after such a long time, the Refining Path would reappear with such insidious methods, refining and sacrificing every person in an entire city..."

Blood Sacrifice?

Lin Chen subconsciously thought of the blood-colored array in the Secret Realm. Wasn’t that array also sacrificing countless demonic beasts to give the True Dragon’s Soul vitality, condensing a body?

Could it be that the array in the Secret Realm was the Ten Thousand Spirits Blood Array?
