There were a total of nine black lotuses growing on top of the scarlet blood pool.
Among them, four of the lotuses had their buds tightly closed and had yet to bloom. Three of the lotuses had a small part of their buds blooming, one was mostly blooming, and one was completely blooming.
Chu Mu, who was slowly recovering, could feel the aura fluctuations released from the nine black lotuses. It was a very powerful aura fluctuation, causing Chu Mu's blood to accelerate and his strength to gradually recover.
Although he didn't know what these lotuses were, Chu Mu was sure that they were treasures related to Body Transformation.
About a hundred people were brought in, including Chu Mu.
Then, two people each carried an unconscious person to the side of the blood pool. Without any hesitation, they used the short swords in their hands to cut open the blood vessels on the necks of the unconscious people. Blood sprayed out and splashed into the blood pool. The two people threw the people whose blood vessels had been cut open, their heads facing outwards, and their blood continued to flow into the blood pool.
One after another, the unconscious people were brought to the side of the blood pool. Their blood vessels were cut open, and their bodies trembled and convulsed.
This scene made everyone who saw it feel their hair stand on end.
Chu Mu also understood that the scarlet color in the pool was indeed blood. Using blood to grow those black lotuses, he didn't know what kind of lotuses they were, but they were so strange.
At this time, one of the people walked towards Chu Mu and reached out to grab Chu Mu's calf.
At the same time, Chu Mu also recovered a part of his strength. With a thought, the person's hand suddenly grabbed empty air. Looking again, Chu Mu wasn't lying on the ground, but was standing in front of him.
"You're awake?" The person was suddenly startled, and then immediately grinned, "Then die."
As soon as his voice fell, the short sword in his hand immediately stabbed out. A cold light flashed, and a murderous aura filled the air. The direct and fierce attack didn't work, instead it was caught.
That's right, Chu Mu only stretched out two fingers to clamp it, and it didn't move at all.
The person who wielded the sword had the strength of a Three Star Martial Saint. Unfortunately, Chu Mu's strength was even stronger. Even if he had only recovered a small portion of his strength, it was still not something that the other party could compare to.
"Men, come quickly!" That person opened his mouth and immediately roared. Instantly, the others were alerted and all of them hurried over.
"Stop!"
The people who rushed over immediately drew their swords and pointed them at Chu Mu when they saw the situation.
"Who are you?" The person who seemed to be the leader asked in a deep voice. It was a middle-aged man wearing blood-red armor. Chu Mu could tell from the aura that he was a Nine Star Saint.
"That's not important. What's important is where we are. I hope someone can answer it for me. " Chu Mu said unhurriedly as he released two fingers. That person hurriedly withdrew his sword and quickly retreated, distancing himself from Chu Mu.
Where was this?
This was what Chu Mu was most concerned about after he woke up. He had to figure out where he was before he could make any arrangements.
"You don't need to know. Take him down." The middle-aged man waved his hand, and a group of warriors wearing blood-red armor immediately rushed up from behind him. Each of them had the strength of a Seven Star Martial Saint. They held blood-red swords in their hands and moved quickly, forming a circle. They surrounded Chu Mu and began to attack him.
The blood-red Sword Light was simple and fierce. It came from all directions without mercy, as if it wanted to cut Chu Mu into pieces in an instant.
Even though Chu Mu's strength had not recovered, he could still deal with such an attack calmly. His figure flashed, and he was as agile as a fish. He shuttled back and forth among the blood-red Sword Light, avoiding the streaks of blood-red Sword Light.
The middle-aged man was shocked. He could actually dodge the attacks of his subordinates so calmly. Such strength was definitely not an ordinary cultivator.
In the next breath, a Sword Light lit up among the blood-red Sword Light. As it flickered, it was like a meteor falling from the sky, shooting in all directions. The guards were pierced by the meteor and died one by one.
In the blink of an eye, more than a dozen guards fell to the ground. There was a bloody hole between their eyebrows, and their Primordial Spirits were shattered. They couldn't be more dead. Blood flowed out, as if it was affected by an invisible force, and gradually flowed into the blood pool.
Since he had already drawn his sword, Chu Mu didn't hold back. His figure flashed, and he used the Ghost Dragon Perplexing Track. His whereabouts were unpredictable, and he couldn't be tracked. He drew his sword, and the Sword Light flashed, taking away one life after another. In the end, only the Nine Star Martial Saint was left.
"Alright, now, we can have a good talk." Chu Mu said as if he had done something very simple. It was as if he had just shaken off the dust on his clothes.
The middle-aged man's entire body was shaking. He held the sword in his hand, but he didn't dare to attack.
Terrifying, it was too terrifying. In that instant, even with his Nine Star Martial Saint strength, he couldn't catch a glimpse of Ye Chen's figure. All of his subordinates were killed.
"Tell me, where is this place?"
"You don't have to tell me. I will go outside and ask someone."
As he said that, Chu Mu lightly flicked the sword in his hand, and he was about to draw his sword.
"Stop!" The middle-aged man finally reacted, and hurriedly shouted, "This is the Evil Lotus Cave."
"Be more specific." Chu Mu said, and a trace of killing intent locked onto the middle-aged man.
"This is the Evil Lotus Cave of our Marionette Sect. It is a secret place specially used to grow the Black Blood Lotus."
"Marionette Sect … Black Blood Lotus …" Chu Mu had never heard of these before. He suddenly thought of something. "I must have come out from a spatial crack. This means that this place is most likely not within the range of the five cities."
After another round of questioning, Chu Mu finally confirmed that this place was indeed not within the range of the five cities. It was far away from the five cities, deeper into the Land of Exile. It was a place that was almost at the end of the Land of Exile, called Sin City.
After going even deeper, Chu Mu finally realized where he had come to. He immediately rejoiced.
He was swallowed by the spatial crack, but he didn't die. He drifted in the spatial turbulence, but he didn't die either. In the end, he even found a chance to rush out of the spatial turbulence. He wasn't sent to another place. He was still within the range of the Land of Exile, but it was a bit far from the five cities.
It was fine as long as he was still within the Land of Exile. If he had been sent to another world, that would have been depressing.
Many, many years ago, Sin City was founded by a group of experts who had offended one of the five great cities. Unable to fight back, they had no choice but to leave and venture deeper into the Land of Exile. After experiencing many dangers, they finally arrived here. As more and more people came, it gradually grew into a city.
Although its history was shorter than that of the five cities, it had still existed for over a million years.
The Marionette Sect was one of the forces in Sin City. According to the middle-aged man, the Marionette Sect used to be called the Marionette Sect, which belonged to the five cities. However, after being surrounded and attacked, only a few people managed to escape. Coincidentally, they came to Sin City and slowly developed.
After learning the lesson of the five cities, the Marionette Sect changed its name to the Marionette Sect. It sounded a level lower, and they were much more low-key in order to avoid the tragedy of the five cities being surrounded and attacked again.
After ten thousand years of development, the Marionette Sect gradually became stronger and stronger, becoming one of the top ten forces in Sin City.
The Evil Lotus Cave was a secret cave used by the Marionette Sect to cultivate the Black Blood Lotus. The Black Blood Lotus was one of the main materials for the Marionette Sect to cultivate the Indestructible Marionette Body. It was extremely precious. It was said that the Black Blood Lotus could be used to refine an elixir called the Ancient Saint Blood Lotus Elixir. It could be used to refine the Saint Body. It was suitable for high level Saint Body, especially Level Seven Saint Body.
In order to survive, the Nine Star Saint Body had already told Chu Mu everything. Since he had already told Chu Mu, he might as well tell him more. He could vaguely guess that Chu Mu had just arrived here from the five cities by accident.
"Do you know how to return to the five cities?" asked Chu Mu.
"I don't know."
"Who knows?" asked Chu Mu again.
"Perhaps our Sect Leader knows," answered the middle-aged man.
"Tell me about the Sect Leader of the Marionette Sect and the strength of the experts in Sin City." Chu Mu said. Based on the situation, he would stay in Sin City for a while. Knowing the enemy and knowing oneself was the key to victory.
"Our Sect Leader is a Bright Moon Sword Saint …" The Nine Star Saint Body immediately said.
"Is there any special way to pick the Black Blood Lotus?" asked Chu Mu again.
"Just pick it," answered the middle-aged man immediately. He was very cooperative.
"Okay," said Chu Mu as he drew his sword. With a flash of Sword Light, the middle-aged man was killed.
His face was full of shock. He had already cooperated so much. Why did he have to kill him?
However, at the beginning, Chu Mu didn't promise that he wouldn't kill him. If he killed him, he would just kill him. He didn't want the news to leak out.
"This Evil Lotus Cave is a secret cave of the Marionette Sect. It is used to cultivate the Black Blood Lotus. Usually, there is only a guard captain and a group of guards guarding it. Only when the Black Blood Lotus matures will someone come to pick the lotus seeds. Right now, there is only one that is completely mature. One is about to mature, and the other seven are not yet mature. I think someone will come to pick the mature lotus seed soon." Chu Mu thought to himself, "I will use this time to recover my strength. Then, I will refine four bottles of Four Image Energy Conversion Pellets to increase my strength as much as possible."
After making up his mind, Chu Mu first waved his hand and pushed all the people who had been killed to the side of the blood pool, allowing their blood to flow into the blood pool and nourish the Black Blood Evil Lotuses, allowing them to quickly mature. As for the people who hadn't been killed but were still unconscious, Chu Mu temporarily ignored them.
He stretched out his hand and grasped at the air. Immediately, lotus seeds shot out from the mature Black Blood Lotus seed pod one after another.
There were twelve lotus seeds in total. They looked black and shiny, but if one looked closely, they would be able to see a red halo. It was very beautiful.
