Chapter 371

In the body of the blurred blood shadow, a dark red light gradually grew and quickly spread all over the body. Then, Shi Xuan only felt darkness around him, as if he had sunk into a sea of blood again. Blood waves were everywhere, and the smell of blood was overflowing. His Vital Sense was all sealed in this sea of blood, unable to extend out.

"Moke Blood River" was a formation type celestial technique, similar to "Yin and Yang Dust". It could be used as an offensive celestial technique, and it could also be used to create a bloody hell in a small area.

In the rolling blood waves, countless blurred blood shadows flew out and pounced on Shi Xuan from all directions. For a moment, the sky was full of hazy, strange, and blurry layers of blood shadows. Together with the blood waves behind him, it seemed that they wanted to drown Shi Xuan in it.

It could be seen that Xue He Laozu had used the secret method of burning incarnation. Otherwise, an incarnation with the strength of a one-tribulation Yang Spirit would not be able to use such a powerful "Moke Blood River", which was almost at the peak of the second-stage celestial technique.

If this was not an incarnation, but a one-tribulation Yang Spirit burning the Vital Spirit, the power would be close to the third-stage celestial technique. Because burning the incarnation would not trigger the Heavenly Tribulation in advance, the price paid was not enough, so the power would naturally be much smaller.

In the face of the surging bloody hell and the endless blood shadows, Shi Xuan knew that he had to go all out and end the battle quickly. If the real body of Xue He Laozu came to help, he would be in great danger. Moreover, with just the top-level second-stage celestial technique, and a formation type, Shi Xuan had to go all out. If anything went wrong, Xue He Laozu's incarnation could kill him, even without his real body.

For Xue He Laozu, the loss of a powerful incarnation in exchange for the death of Shi Xuan was really a bargain. After all, Shi Xuan had a strong momentum. He had achieved immortality in less than three hundred years of cultivation. Even if it was difficult for him to become a Celestial Being in the future, it was very likely that he would pass the third Heavenly Tribulation and suppress all sects like Meng Nishang. If this really happened, as a mortal enemy of Penglai, the Blood Demon Sect would not be happy.

Therefore, in this matter, a little personal grudge was not the reason for Xue He Laozu to pay the price of an incarnation.

Violent gales and enormous waves arose on the vast sea of blood. The blood colored waves and countless blood shadows seemed to have completely enveloped Shi Xuan. From afar, it looked like an enormous blood colored cocoon, and the cocoon was filled with blood shadows that were wriggling ceaselessly. It was exceptionally disgusting, savage, and terrifying.

But right at this moment, a bright sun slowly rose from within the blood-colored cocoon, emitting millions upon millions of rays of brilliant sunlight, illuminating the blood-colored cocoon until it was riddled with holes. And from these holes, one sun after another flew out, extremely positive and boundlessly vast.

The Nine Great Suns hovered in the sky above the Blood Sea, making the Blood Sea sizzle. The blood water and the blood shadows turned into white smoke and evaporated. In less than a moment, the Blood Sea seemed to have dried up by half, and the number of blood shadows decreased by a lot. The blood waves and blood shadows near Shi Xuan had completely disappeared.

This was one of the three core sword formations of the Heavenly Cycle Stars Sword Technique, Journey of the East, a sword technique of the utmost positive Yang.

Different from other starry sword techniques, the Heavenly Cycle Stars Sword Technique classified the sun and moon as stars. It did not separate the power of the sun, the power of the moon, and the power of the stars. Instead, it used them together with the Imperial Star Myrtle as the three core sword formations of the Heavenly Cycle Stars Sword Formation.

Compared to the Imperial Star Myrtle Descent, Journey of the East and Moonlight Jade Rabbit, one Yang and one Yin, complemented and complemented Shi Xuan's fundamental cultivation technique. Therefore, among the three core sword formations, Shi Xuan's attainments in Journey of the East and Moonlight Jade Rabbit were deeper. For example, Journey of the East had reached the level of Nine Suns in a Single Sword after decades of cultivation, which was the limit of his current realm. Moreover, after using it, due to the influence of Shi Xuan's own cultivation technique, its power would increase significantly.

Due to the extreme positive Yang nature of Journey of the East, Shi Xuan had previously prepared to use it as a trump card to heavily injure Xue He Laozu. But now that he was trapped in the Blood Sea Formation of the Moke Blood River, he naturally could not wait for an opportunity.

As the nine suns filled the sky, the Blood Sea and its surroundings were unbearably hot. Even the space was distorted and melted by the heat.

However, the Moke Blood River was extraordinary after all. Soon, the Blood Sea began to surge again. Blurry blood shadows continued to fly out of the blood-red sea, one after another. They were in a deadlock with the nine suns.

At this time, nine bright moons appeared in the sky. In each moon, there was a faintly discernible Jade Rabbit. Under the illumination of the bright moonlight, the Blood Sea was completely frozen and the blood shadows turned into ice cubes.

And among the nine suns and nine moons, an even larger, deep, and mysterious wheel appeared. It did not emit any light, but it could compete with the suns and moons in splendor.

The wheel seemed to be rotating slowly but was actually very fast. The softest of the white and the most obvious of the mysterious patterns reached the top. Inside it, the ethereal, unchanging, and majestic figure in a high crown and ceremonial robe lifted a finger and pointed at the Blood Sea.

With this finger, the void behind the figure kept shattering. All the stars fell, and the suns and moons exploded.

And the nine suns and nine moons formed by the Dongxi's Journey and the Moonlight Jade Rabbit exploded at the same time as the illusory suns and moons behind the figure exploded. All the power followed some mysterious law and was added to that finger.

The sea of blood dried up in an instant, and all the bloody shadows disappeared. The scarlet rampart in the surroundings collapsed, revealing the azure sky and the pure-white clouds.

In these forty years, although Shi Xuan had not mastered the Minor Heavenly Cycle Stars Formation, when he was cultivating the Dongxi's Journey and the Moonlight Jade Rabbit, he suddenly had an idea. The Six Paths of Reincarnation's Heavenly Dao was the explosion of the illusory suns and moons. If it was replaced by the explosion of the suns and moons formed by the sword formation, its power would definitely increase.

After a long period of exploration and experimentation, Shi Xuan finally combined the two. The power of the Heavenly Dao reached the peak of the second-level immortal technique, and it became his trump card. It had to be said that Shi Xuan did have some talent in swordsmanship.

Dozens of miles away from Shi Xuan, a blurry blood shadow was about to turn into a blood light to escape. Xue He Laozu never thought that his powerful Moke Blood River would be broken in an instant, and he didn't have the chance to use many of his methods. Most importantly, with the destruction of the Blood Sea Hell formed by the Moke Blood River, the explosion brought by the burning of the incarnation was already at the end of its tether. Therefore, he made a prompt decision to turn around and escape.

It was not that the power brought by the burning of the incarnation could only last for such a short time. Before that, Xue He Laozu had been seriously injured by Shi Xuan's Four Symbols World-Destroying Sword and Shenxiao's True Thunder. Naturally, his time was greatly reduced. Moreover, he had used a secret technique to put most of the explosive power into the Moke Blood River in order to trap and kill Shi Xuan. Once the Moke Blood River was broken, the remaining power would not be enough.

Shi Xuan raised his hand, and the Heavenly Dao shadow pointed again. This time, although there was no explosion of the sun and moon formed by the Dongxi's Journey and the Moonlight Jade Rabbit, the blurry blood shadow trembled and stopped immediately. Then, it turned into spots of blood light and slowly dissipated in the air.

However, during the battle just now, many of the blood-colored specks of light scattered in the air suddenly turned into streaks of blood-colored light and fled in all directions.

Shi Xuan smiled bitterly in his heart, "This is really troublesome."

The cultivators of the Blood Demon Sect were famous for being difficult to kill, especially when they had reached the Primordial Spirit stage. Even the slightest loss of their thoughts or drops of blood would allow them to slowly reassemble and recover by plundering their blood essence, vitality, soul, and Primordial Spirit. Even a powerful celestial technique like the Six Paths of Reincarnation could not kill the main body and make all the thoughts and drops of blood disappear at the same time. He had to wait for Shi Xuan to survive the second Heavenly Tribulation and upgrade it to the equivalent of a Level Four celestial technique.

Shi Xuan's primordial spirit enveloped the slowest beam of blood-red light. A dark and gloomy black talisman emerged around it, with a dim, old, and strange blood-red character 'Die' written on it.

As soon as the black talisman wrapped around the blood light, it immediately collapsed and disappeared without a trace. Then, the other blood lights also stopped and were blown away by the wind.

Through the karmic connection between the blood lights, Shi Xuan finally killed the incarnation of Xue He Laozu. At the same time, Shi Xuan felt that the karmic power did not stop. It went somewhere far away, but a majestic and terrifying aura rose and blocked the karmic power.

Shi Xuan was not greedy. He immediately cut off the karmic power to avoid being hurt by Xue He Laozu.

In this fight, Shi Xuan used all his strength to kill the incarnation of Xue He Laozu's One-tribulation Yang God. Compared with the Taoist Immortals, who had many tricks and were difficult to defend against, Human Immortals of the Martial Way seemed to have a lot of flaws. Although their attack and defense were slightly stronger, Shi Xuan estimated that with the means he used just now, he could definitely kill a One-tribulation Earth Immortal with a Natal Magic Weapon.

Of course, after advancing to the Celestial Being and passing through the First Blight, the two would return to the same place.

…

When Shi Xuan's Shenxiao True Thunder broke the defense of the valley, Hui Ye, the Venerable God of the Deep Abyss, almost died. Fortunately, Xue He Laozu saved him, so he survived. However, he did not have the ability to intervene in a battle of this level. He did not dare to stay on the scene, so he hid his aura and quietly escaped.

After a few breaths, Hui Ye had already escaped thousands of miles away. But at this time, the blood color in the sky disappeared, which made him realize that the situation was not right. He was in a dilemma whether to find a place to hide or to escape with all his strength.

But soon, he did not have to think about this problem, because he found that he was involuntarily flying backward. He wanted to use all kinds of means, but it was useless. He could only watch helplessly as he fell into the hands of Shi Xuan.

Before he could speak, Shi Xuan directly searched his soul.

"Test? What does Xue He Laozu want to test? " The Venerable God of the Deep Abyss did not know much. Xue He Laozu wanted to test him, and he wanted to preach. Coupled with the strong coercion, they naturally hit it off.

After the soul search, Shi Xuan did not give the Venerable God of the Deep Abyss a chance to beg. He directly took out a Karma Pill Tome, wrote the word "die" on it, and pasted it on the Venerable God of the Deep Abyss. This was to cut the weeds and eliminate the roots. The Venerable God of the Deep Abyss's survival ability was still fresh in Shi Xuan's memory, and it was possible that he had buried some resurrection method somewhere.

The Venerable God of the Deep Abyss's eyes immediately became dull. Specks of golden power of will floated out of his body like golden fireworks, brilliant and beautiful. When the power of will completely dissipated, his life force was also completely severed.
