At the same time, the Red Tide Moss was growing crazily under the crimson moonlight.
There were three moons in the Blood Demon Sector. The furthest one was extremely dim, like a cluster of fuzzy spots.
The other two moons were very close to it. They were enormous, like a pair of devil eyes that never closed. Crimson brilliance beamed out of them, soaking the entire world in redness.
That was how the Blood Demon Sector got its name.
The Red Tide Moss was a very weird life form. It was a cross between animals, plants, and fungi. Under the illumination of the crimson moon, it was like a crimson tide that could cover an entire mountain in a single night and be several meters thick.
Countless demonic plants dug their roots deep into the Red Tide Moss and absorbed the demonic energy of the Blood Moons brought by the Red Tide Moss.
Countless mediocre demon beasts, on the other hand, fed on the demonic plants and eventually became the nutrition for the high-level demons.
It was because of the amazing ecosystem made of the Blood Moons and the Red Tide Moss that the energy provided by the stars was utilized to the maximum. That was why the Blood Demon Sector, despite its harsh environment, could breed so many great demons and beast tides.
At this moment, in the middle of the jagged, jagged mountains, a team whose head and tail could not be seen was marching forward.
It was the army that had retreated from the Tian Yuan Realm. They were carrying the bodies of countless demons.
At the bottom of the valley, bottomless holes more than ten meters in diameter and surrounded by black fog were everywhere.
From the bottom of the cave came the sound of "Hulu Hulu", as if there was a huge demon beast hibernating in the depths of the cave.
Almost a hundred soul summoners, who were wearing colorful feather suits and holding devilish bells and staffs, were standing next to the holes. They were shrieking, which echoed in the valley and congregated into soul-stirring sounds.
"Huala! Huala! "
The bodies of countless demons were thrown into the holes.
Kacha! Kacha! Crack! Everybody felt that their blood was freezing. It was chilling.
The regular army of the demon clan that was carrying the bodies, on the other hand, was dancing in ecstasy. There was envy in the eyes of many demons.
The soul summoners were shouting.
"The souls of the warriors of the saints have returned to the Pantheon of Demons. Turn into demon spirits and live forever! "
Among the soldiers that were carrying the bodies, there were some demons who were too heavily wounded to be cured. When they reached the front of the holes, their eyes suddenly lit up.
"Transform into a demon spirit and become immortal!"
"The Pantheon of Demons. Welcome me! "
With that, he leaped into the hole.
Amidst the cracking sounds, there seemed to be faint screams mixed in, but they were covered by the black fog.
The valley was filled with cheers.
Not far from the valley, there was a huge mountain peak that pierced the sky like a fang. It had been hollowed out and was filled with tunnels and caves.
Tens of thousands of huge blood-red crystals were embedded in each crystal on both sides of the cave. All of them were pregnant with a strange-looking monster. Many of them were grimacing in pain. His flesh and blood tore apart. His flesh and blood crazily expanded and wriggled.
Tens of thousands of tunnels with countless twists and turns gathered together in the depths of the Fanged Mountain, forming a giant cave abode.
In the corner of the cave, there was a blood pool with a diameter of three meters. The thick red liquid gave off a strong smell of blood. It was still bubbling and emitting wisps of steam.
It also looked like blood. It also looked like lava!
Wang Ji was soaked in the blood pool. Only his head was exposed to the air. However, the surging waves of blood would hit his face from time to time. Every time they hit, a piece of flesh would be torn off, revealing white bone fragments. However, the next time they hit, the flesh and blood would be reassembled.
Wang Ji had been soaked in the 'Pool of Regeneration' for nine days and nine nights.
It was not only for the sake of healing, but also an incomparably cruel punishment.
For nine days and nine nights, his flesh had been corroded, regenerated, and corroded again and again. He felt that thousands of ants were gnawing at his heart.
But Wang Ji did not dare show any pain or dissatisfaction. He even tried to stop himself, fearing that he would disturb the person who was meditating in the depths of the cave.
That was because it was his master, the terrifying Monster Emperor, Ancestor Xue Pao!
The social structure of the Blood Demon Sector was different from that of the Xing Yao Federation. It was divided into countless demon tribes. When several tribes united, they would call themselves a country. Dozens of demon kingdoms large and small fought against each other. The Kingdom of Lion Butchers, where Wang Ji was born, was one of the stronger ones.
Above the demon kingdoms, there were demon emperors. They claimed to be the representatives of the Pantheon of Demons in the Blood Demon Sector and boasted the power to communicate with billions of demon spirits in the depths of the boundless space.
It was under the command of the demon emperors that the dozens of demon kingdoms were able to organize and launch an attack on the Tian Yuan Realm.
Wang Ji was only the twenty-first son of the King of Lion Butchers. In order to compete for the title of prince, he had gathered a bunch of subordinates and snuck into the Thunderous Sound Mountain, hoping to tame the mutant lion dragon.
But when he was about to succeed, somebody interrupted him and killed the mutant lion dragon. Somebody even set up a trap with the demon core of the mutant lion dragon and blew up all his subordinates.
But it was not his time to die yet. In the explosion, the two demon kings that the King of Lion Butchers sent to assist and monitor him were heavily wounded, too.
In contrast, he was almost unscathed with the protection of a piece of demonic equipment that his mother had given him.
Wang Ji made up his mind quickly. He slew the two demon kings and dug out their demon cores.
Then, he returned to the Blood Demon Sector and found a quiet place to absorb the demon cores and improve his capability.
But one day, he ran into Elder Blood Robe during a hunting trip.
After swallowing two demon cores, Wang Ji was reborn with a unique bloodline. Elder Blood Robe noticed him and accepted him as a disciple.
After that, Wang Ji returned to the Kingdom of Lion Butchers with the support of Elder Blood Robe. He cleaned up his dozens of brothers as fast as lightning and ascended to the throne of prince. He was even vaguely planning to compete with the King of Lion Butchers for the throne.
However, that was the end of his luck.
The invasion of the Tian Yuan Realm was just a probing battle. But Wang Ji thought that it was a great opportunity for him to make great contributions. Not only did he prepare for the battle, he also begged Elder Blood Robe many times. Finally, he was able to borrow the Red Jade Mist Mirage Saber.
He had thought that he could slay dozens of Building Foundation Stage Cultivators with the saber.
If he was lucky, he might even have a chance to ambush one or two Jin Dan experts who were alone and wounded!
In the Blood Demon Sector, the strong preyed on the weak. The winner was the king. Capability and accomplishments were the most important thing.
If he could slay an expert of Jin Dan, he would have been able to return to the Kingdom of Lion Butchers. As long as he raised the bloody saber and gave the order, countless soldiers would have gathered. They would have gathered under his command and stopped supporting the old bastard King of Lion Butchers.
But it was a pity that …
He had failed!
Not only had he been heavily wounded … His body had been destroyed.
More importantly, even the Red Jade Mist Mirage Saber that Elder Blood Robe had lent to him had been lost in the Tian Yuan Realm.
"I hate it! I hate it! "
When he thought of the Cultivator who ruined his plan, Wang Ji felt that he was dizzy. His teeth that had just regrown were chewed into pieces again.
The Cultivator was not in the Building Foundation Stage yet, and he was only equipped with the MP Crystal Suit. But with his cunning tricks, he had suffered a crushing defeat!
"Despicable Cultivator, I will find you and kill you, as well as all your family and friends, your lover, and your sect. I will not let any of you go. I will grind all of you into minced meat!"
Wang Ji couldn't bear the pain any longer. He roared in a low voice.
A moment later … His voice came to an abrupt halt, as if a sharp blade had brushed past his neck.
Deep inside the cave, a bloody shadow slowly drifted over.
It was a very handsome man. He could be called 'flawless'. There was not the slightest feature of a demon beast on his face. His skin was smooth and clean, as clear as that of a baby. His face was that of a seven-year-old child. He was completely innocent.
But his eyes were gloomy, deep, and full of gray haze.
It was like a pair of eyes of a three-hundred-year-old man had been pressed into the eyes of a seven-year-old child.
He was wearing a red robe. It was draped over his body, flowing slowly like blood.
He was the demon emperor. Elder Blood Robe!
When Elder Blood Robe showed up, the boiling of the blood pool was ten times more intense than before. Countless blood sprouts popped out of the blood pool and tore Wang Ji's face like tiny hands.
Wang Ji was in so much pain that he wanted to die. Tears were running down his cheeks, but he didn't dare to make a sound.
Elder Blood Robe was smiling as he enjoyed Wang Ji's suffering. A moment later, he said softly,
"Wang Ji, do you admit your mistake?"
Wang Ji almost passed out. He tried to cheer himself up and replied in a trembling voice,
"Master, I admit my mistake. The Red Jade Mist Mirage Saber was made of the rarely-seen marrow blood thousands of meters below the ground. The materials were extremely precious, but I lost them …
"I will not shirk from the responsibility that I should bear!
"I swear to all the demons in the Pantheon of Demons that I will take back the Red Jade Mist Mirage Saber within one year. Otherwise, I would rather be killed by you, Master. My body will be exposed in the wilderness and I will never be able to enter the Pantheon of Demons again!"
Elder Blood Robe glanced at him. A round, bright yellow demon beast that looked like a balloon suddenly appeared in his hand. He flicked it into the blood pool.
"You said that it was a particularly tough Mystic Skeleton Battlesuit that stole the Red Jade Mist Mirage Saber. This' information bug 'has just cracked almost a hundred human crystal processors that we've captured and absorbed a lot of information about the Mystic Skeleton Battlesuit. You can analyze it yourself and find out the answer!"
The appearance of the information bug made Wang Ji's face change color.
He hadn't been so scared even when he was soaked in the Regeneration Pool for nine days and nine nights.
However, under Elder Blood Robe's scorching gaze, he gritted his teeth and picked up the information bug. Shivering, he brought it to his forehead.
"Chi!"
More than ten meat sprouts suddenly darted out of the information bug and pierced into his brain like sharp arrows.
The meat sprouts expanded, constricted, twisted, and wriggled.
"Ahhhh!"
Wang Ji's eyes turned white, as he screamed in desperation. He struggled hard in the blood pool, stirring up thousands of flowers of blood.
Pictures, shouts, and data burst into his brain like a volcanic eruption.
The Mystic Skeleton Battlesuit of the Grand Desolate War Institution!
The bidding meeting of the military!
The Flying Crystal Race!
A Mystic Skeleton Battlesuit challenging a crystal warship!
Li Yao, a student of the Grand Desolate War Institution, a test pilot of the Mystic Skeleton Battlesuit, one of the best Mystic Skeleton Battlesuit users in the Tian Yuan Realm, and a refiner who was adept at modifying crystal suits and setting up explosive traps.
Wait …
Li Yao, a year and a half ago, had been learning how to use the Crystal Suit in the Thunder Training Camp and had been lost in the Thunderous Sound Mountain for ten days and ten nights.
The Thunderous Sound Mountain?
The Thunderous Sound Mountain!
The boiling in the blood pool suddenly stopped.
Despite the excruciating pain in his head, Wang Ji was frozen into a gloomy, cold statue.
The tremendous information in the crystal processors of human beings was connected like blood diamonds, which enlightened him.
Li Yao was the one who had killed all his subordinates in the Thunderous Sound Mountain and ruined all his efforts.
He was also the one who had interrupted his teleportation in Red Lotus City, heavily wounded him, and stolen the Red Jade Mist Mirage Saber.
"Vulture Li Yao …"
