148: Chapter 148 Cruel Torture 148: Chapter 148 Cruel Torture “First, I don’t like your attitude,” Ye Xuan said calmly.

“Second, I don’t owe anything to you and your sister.

And third, you should be thanking me for giving you the chance to become strong, not looking at me with such hatred.”

“You bastard, if it hadn’t been for your arrival, my sister might not have died,” Gu Beichen shouted loudly.

Slap!

Another slap sounded, knocking the young man to the ground, his bright red blood slowly trailing from the corner of his mouth.

Ye Xuan reached out with one palm, grasping the young man’s neck and lifting him into the air.

“Boy, you can hate me, but I’m telling you, from now on, I will train you in the most brutal way possible.

You only earn the right to hate me if you survive.”

Ye Xuan gave a cold laugh, his smile filled with an indescribable eeriness and horror, chilling the young man to the core, feeling that something extremely bad was about to happen.

Bang!

Suddenly, Ye Xuan forcefully threw the young man into the pond, soaking him completely, then pointed to a green stone being pummeled by a thousand-foot waterfall, “Today, your task is to climb that stone.

If you fail to complete the task I give you, I will show you what living hell is like.”

Looking at the terrifying force of the thousand-foot waterfall, Gu BeiChen’s face turned pale and he screamed at Ye Xuan, “You’re mad!

The force of this water is terrifying.

I will die before I can even reach the green stone.”

As the boy spoke, he continuously swam towards the shore, clearly unable to do as Ye Xuan had commanded.

Sudden.

A willow whip appeared in Ye Xuan’s hand, unknown when.

As bloodlight infused into it, the whip straightened instantly, then followed by a horrifyingly powerful lashing toward the young man.

Slap!

The air exploded, lines of blood emerged, and before the young man could reach the shore, his back was ripped open, flesh burst forth, and blood surged out, causing him to scream in agony.

“Ye Xuan, you bastard, I’m going to kill you!” the young man roared, his eyes brimming with hatred.

“With your useless self?”

Slap, slap, slap!

The willow whip soared through the air, the streaks of bloodlight intensifying the bleeding lashes on Gu BeiChen, making his screams grow weaker.

“If you can’t climb onto that stone today, then die under my whip,” Ye Xuan said coldly, clearly not just making an empty threat.

If the young man dared disobey his orders, Ye Xuan would indeed whip Gu BeiChen to death.

“Ye Xuan, I will kill you, I will avenge my sister!” The young man’s eyes were bloodshot, fixedly staring at Ye Xuan, then suddenly he thrust himself toward the stone in the middle of the lake.

At this moment!

Ye Xuan, holding the willow whip, watched the young man in the water with a cold expression, a slight smirk outlining the corners of his mouth.

How could Ye Xuan not know that because of Gu Xiaoxiao’s death, the young man harbored not only great hatred toward the villagers and the Blood Shadows but also deep resentment toward him?

Nonetheless, Ye Xuan didn’t care about this hatred.

Since Gu Beichen wanted to avenge his sister, then let him come.

Moreover, Ye Xuan firmly believed that amid such hatred, Gu Beichen would become the sharpest knife in his hand, slaughtering the beings of the Human World and eventually becoming an existence akin to a terrifying Asura.

Perhaps some might ask, since Ye Xuan’s Cultivation was unmatched, why bother with such a cumbersome process, just kill the young man and be done with it.

Why go through so much trouble?

However, in Ye Xuan’s understanding, when a kind-hearted person turns into an utterly evil one, that person is undoubtedly the most terrifying.

Ye Xuan also deeply understood that his subordinates lacked such a person, and Gu Beichen was the best choice.

Moreover, in the future when facing some insignificant entities, if Ye Xuan always had to personally handle things, it would be akin to diminishing his own stature.

In the pond,

a thousand-foot waterfall struck fiercely, and the young man struggled frantically in the water.

Every time he barely touched the Green Stone, the terrifying current that struck down would smash him into the bottom of the pond.

Blood spat from Gu Beichen’s mouth, and even his bones were broken in several places, but sustained by the hatred in his heart, he continued to climb toward the Green Stone with an extremely tenacious will.

The sun set in the west, and darkness fell.

In the center of the pond, the young man bathed in blood, his ruined palms gripping the Green Stone firmly, enduring the terrifying current as he bit his teeth and climbed upwards.

Finally, this time the young man was not swept down by the current.

As he just climbed onto the Green Stone, bracing against the horrifying current, he weakly roared at Ye Xuan, “I…did it…I did it…”

Bang!

Gu Beichen could no longer hold on and was once again struck down by the current, and at that moment, he passed out.

A streak of blood light lifted him up, shooting directly toward Ye Xuan.

With skin split and flesh torn, bones fractured, and blood continuously flowing from his mouth, this was the young man’s current state.

If no one treated him, Gu Beichen might not last long and would likely die right there.

Looking at the scene before him, Ye Xuan showed not a trace of sympathy.

A bit of blood light sprang from his fingertip, and he fiercely pointed at the young man, causing him to groan and slowly open his eyes.

Snap!

The Willow Whip swept across the sky, striking down, immediately causing the young man’s battered body to stagger and let out a muffled cry of pain.

Ye Xuan’s cruel voice also sounded at this moment.

“Since you haven’t died yet, sit up for me and practice this Cultivation Technique until tomorrow morning.

If you can’t reach the first level of this technique, I will kill you.” Ye Xuan’s voice was chillingly cold, as he casually threw a book in front of the young man, and with a step, his figure eerily vanished.

“Ye Xuan, I will definitely surpass you, I surely will.”

Gu Beichen’s face was streaked with tears, the pain in his body and heart almost driving him mad.

His hands were already a mess of blood and flesh, yet he still tightly clutched the book Ye Xuan had thrown down, flipping through it rapidly under the moonlight.

High above in the sky, in the void,

Ye Xuan sat cross-legged on the clouds, indifferently overlooking the young man’s Cultivation, his voice cold and merciless, “Blood Demon Scripture, an Evil Technique of the Demon Path, not to be practiced by those who don’t harbor great hatred.

On every full moon, one must endure the agony of countless ants devouring one’s flesh.

If you can endure three months of Cultivation, you will completely transform into a formidable being of this era.

If you can’t endure, you will die and dissipate, turning into a wisp of dust in the Human World.”

Ye Xuan slowly closed his eyes, facing the waning moon in the high sky.

He breathed in and out, his body glowing with the light of an Immortal Spirit and the Law, indicating that Ye Xuan was gradually moving towards the Tribulation Crossing Late Stage.

…

Time passed, and years flew by.

In the blink of an eye, three months had passed, and during these three months, the young Gu Beichen underwent a terrifying transformation.

Fueled by the hatred and will in his heart, he had successfully cultivated the Blood Demon Scripture to the first level.

At that moment, his body was completely transformed, his once broken body becoming smooth and flawless.

But the cruel ordeal was far from over, it had just begun.
