"Are we just going to watch as the Blood Demon Emperor's cultivation method is left here and miss out on this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity?" A Saint Ruler reluctantly asked.
"I don't dare to touch the Blood Demon Emperor's things either. If anyone wants it, feel free to take it," said Tisnek. He understood the Blood Demon Emperor's infamy extremely well. Let alone him, even a few Holy Emperor experts would not dare to touch a book that contained the Blood Demon Emperor's presence of slaughter.
After all, the Blood Demon Emperor was an eighteen -star Poseidon warrior when he was still alive. The three hall masters had to work together to kill him, and they had to pay a heavy price to do so.
Jianchen stared at the book on the ground. The light in his eyes flickered as his face became unsettled. After a moment of hesitation, he slowly made his way toward the book on the ground.
"Jianchen, what are you doing? You can't touch that book," Nubis immediately stopped Jianchen and tried to persuade him.
"Don't worry, I'll be fine," Jianchen gently replied. He did not stop at all.
Nubis hesitated slightly when he saw how insistent Jianchen was, but he did not stop him. Instead, he silently followed behind Jianchen. If Jianchen encountered any danger, he would immediately stop him.
Everyone in the surroundings stared at Jianchen. They all wanted to see whether the powerful ruler of the Turtle clan could endure the presence of slaughter hidden in the book and obtain the Blood Demon Emperor's cultivation method.
Jianchen sternly arrived before the book before slowly extending his hand toward it.
At that moment, everyone's gazes were all focused on Jian Chen's hand that was constantly approaching the book. They all stared at it without blinking.
Finally, Jianchen's hand came in contact with the book left behind by the Blood Demon Emperor under the gazes of several dozen experts. Jianchen violently trembled. He immediately felt an extremely powerful killing intent enter his body through his fingers. It turned into a bone-chilling energy that passed through his body and rapidly approached his head.
The killing intent was just too powerful. Jianchen felt like an ant before a mountain before it. He was unable to resist at all, as if just the strand of killing intent was enough to wipe out his soul.
Jianchen was shocked. The Blood Demon Emperor was just too powerful. Just the strand of killing intent he had left behind in the book possessed such terrifying power. Jianchen did not doubt that even the Fifth Heavenly Layer Holy Emperor would become heavily injured before the killing intent.
"Boom!"
The killing intent moved extremely quickly. In the blink of an eye, it had entered Jianchen's head and entered his sea of consciousness. Immediately, a violent rumble erupted in Jianchen's head. At that moment, his entire sea of consciousness had been drowned by a dense, bloody mist. The bloody mist contained powerful killing intent, as if it wanted to forcefully shatter Jianchen's sea of consciousness.
"What a powerful killing intent!" The Artifact Spirit's voice rang out in Jianchen's head. The golden tower in his sea of consciousness suddenly expanded, becoming three thousand meters tall. It shone with a powerful golden light that protected Jianchen's soul.
At the same time, the sword spirits, who were still recovering from absorbing the energy from the five-colored immortal crystal, moved as well. Violet and azure light illuminated the surroundings in his sea of consciousness. Two divine swords vaguely appeared and directly slashed down at the mist.
As the divine swords slashed down, an indescribable presence suddenly appeared. This was the trace of the great dao, the laws of the world. The surrounding space trembled violently, falling into a state of chaos. Suddenly, a vast starry sky appeared here. Battle cries shook the heavens. Countless immortals were fighting in this unknown starry sky. Each of their attacks contained the power to destroy the heavens and earth, shattering countless planets in the surroundings.
Next, two divine swords, one purple and one azure, flew out of the void. They charged into the crowd of immortals with devastating power. Immediately, flesh and blood splattered everywhere. Countless powerful immortals died to the two swords. Golden blood splattered everywhere. Every single drop of blood possessed the power to kill the Holy Emperor. Immortal corpses filled the entire space.
The saint artifact began to violently tremble. The Artifact Spirit hiding in the saint artifact clearly saw this and was filled with fear. The bloody mist that permeated Jianchen's sea of consciousness seemed to be greatly frightened. It began to violently shrink before retreating at an even faster speed. It returned to the book and disappeared.
"Fortunately, this strand of slaughter Qi has a certain level of intelligence. Otherwise, we really wouldn't be able to do anything to it. Master, try not to touch these things in the future. They're very dangerous." The sword spirits' voices rang out in Jianchen's head.
Earlier, the sword spirits had not used absolute strength to repel the strand of slaughter Qi. Instead, they had used their abilities to project a few scenes of the past, creating a great deterrence to scare away the strand of slaughter Qi.
This method could not be used on people. It could only be used on spirits like the Artifact Spirit and the strand of slaughter Qi that possessed some intelligence. This was because the sword spirits themselves were extremely powerful spirits. Although they were weak, they possessed an innate ability to suppress those of the same kind.
The strand of slaughter Qi retreated back into the book. It had already been frightened, so it disappeared from the book. It now feared Jianchen.
This time, Jianchen was not affected at all. He looked at the book as if nothing had happened. His face was filled with surprise and doubt.
Jianchen had seen the four protectors of the Bloodsword sect before, so he was extremely familiar with their powerful Baleful Yin Force. He had actually sensed an energy that was basically the same as the Baleful Yin Force from the strand of slaughter Qi hidden in the book. However, the strand of slaughter Qi within the book was far more powerful than the Baleful Yin Force. However, the two seemed to share the same origin, which surprised Jianchen.
Jianchen continued to hold the book as if nothing had happened. This action stunned the surrounding people. They all stared at him in disbelief, but their attention soon shifted to the book in Jianchen's hand. All of their eyes were filled with greed.
"Ruler of the Turtle clan, has the strand of slaughter Qi hidden in there disappeared?" An expert could not help but ask.
"The Blood Demon Emperor can't have left behind a lot of strand of slaughter Qi. After injuring two people, it must have completely dispersed. The ruler of the Turtle clan was just lucky. He just happened to wait for the strand of slaughter Qi to disperse before obtaining the book," a skinny old man indifferently replied.
"I think that's most likely the case. Ruler of the Turtle clan, I was the one who obtained the book, and the strand of slaughter Qi inside was only absorbed by me at the risk of injuring my soul. Shouldn't you return the book to me?" The old man who had just received the book pleaded. Although he knew that the chances of success were close to zero, he was still unwilling to give it a try.
Jianchen glanced at the old man before throwing the book to the ground without any hesitation. He nonchalantly said, "If you want it, then take it."
Seeing how Jianchen had actually thrown the Blood Demon Emperor's cultivation method to the ground in such a straightforward manner, the people in the surroundings who wanted to snatch it immediately paused. They had already sensed that something was off.
However, the old man was not as calm. He immediately became overjoyed when he saw how Jianchen had returned the Blood Demon Emperor's cultivation method to him in such a straightforward manner. He immediately bent down and picked up the book.
"Argh!" However, just when the old man's hand came in contact with the book, he immediately produced a painful cry. His soul had been heavily injured by the strand of slaughter Qi in the book once again. His injuries had become even more severe.
Everyone in the surroundings gasped at the sight of this. They secretly rejoiced that they had not tried to snatch the book recklessly, or they would have been the one screaming right now.
Jianchen coldly looked around and said, "Who else wants the Blood Demon Emperor's cultivation method? Feel free to come and take it. I, Jianchen, will not stop you." Jianchen was fearless. He had already experienced the power of the strand of slaughter Qi, so he understood that no one present could make the strand of slaughter Qi fear him other than himself.
Even the Artifact Spirit could only block the strand of slaughter Qi and not repel it. Even with the protection of the Holy Emperor's treasures, all they could do was protect themselves.
"Looks like the Blood Demon Emperor's cultivation method belongs to the ruler of the Turtle clan," Mo Ji smiled as he stood behind Jianchen. A sliver of intense jealousy was hidden in the depths of his eyes.
"Since no one is interested in the Blood Demon Emperor's cultivation method, I'll take it first." Jianchen picked up the book from the ground again. He was not affected by the strand of slaughter Qi at all as he stowed it away in his Space Ring like nothing had happened.
The strand of slaughter Qi in Jianchen's sea of consciousness had already been frightened away by the sword spirits. It no longer dared to harm Jianchen.
After everyone moved everything out of the Treasure Pavilion, they continued to the third floor of the palace. As soon as they set foot on the third floor, a surging sword Qi surged toward them, causing them to feel a piercing pain on their faces. It was as if even the air there had been dyed by the sword Qi, becoming sharp.
In the center of the palace, there was a huge sword that was thirty meters tall. It was stuck in a dried-up pool, giving off a great pressure. It also gave off an aura that seemed to look down on the world, as if it was the most powerful being in the world.
This was a slender sword that had been enlarged over ten times. Although the sword was a meter wide, it would only be two fingers wide if it was reduced to its normal size.
