Heartbroken Mountain, Blood Sea Battlefield.
Foul wind, sea of blood, bones!
This was a burial ground, an ancient battlefield where death was the only movement. There was no light here, and there was no hope. Between heaven and earth, there was a blazing blood light that covered the sky.
On top of the mountain of corpses and bones, Yuan Ling sat high on the White Bone Throne. His body was covered in black light, and there was even a bloody light around him. When he opened and closed his eyes, he looked at the Heaven's Gate.
"Gu Xiaoxiao should be making her move soon, right?" A blood-red shadow quietly appeared beside Yuan Ling and said in a deep voice.
"Do you think Ye Xuan will kill her?" Yuan Ling said mysteriously.
"It's hard to say."
The blood-red shadow shook his head slowly and said, "I have never understood Ye Xuan. You said he was heartless, but he left the ancient battlefield for his family. You said he had feelings, but he gave up his family and wanted to become an immortal in the mortal world to fight against you."
A gust of foul wind blew, and Yuan Ling stretched his arms and stood up from the White Bone Throne. His eyes were deep as he said, "I can tell you that although he looks heartless, he has feelings in his heart. If he really was heartless, why would he be involved in the Boundless Secular World?"
"So, he won't kill Gu Xiaoxiao?" The blood-red shadow asked seriously.
Unfortunately, Yuan Ling did not answer this question. Instead, he said, "Ye Xuan wants to become an immortal in the mortal world and escape from my control. Then I will fulfill his wish. As long as he devours Gu Xiaoxiao's blood, he can enter the late stage of the Tribulation Passing Stage and usher in the Nine Heavens Immortal Tribulations."
"Difficult, difficult, difficult!"
The blood-red shadow shook his head and said, "He has killed many people, and his sins are too heavy. How can you be so sure that he can pass the Nine Heavens Immortal Tribulations?"
"You should know that when you became an immortal, if I did not lend you the Exquisite Blood Sea Pagoda, the Nine Heavens Immortal Tribulations would have killed you."
"And you have to understand that if he really passes the Nine Heavenly Tribulations, then his life force will surpass that of mortals. He will be able to use ten percent of the Heaven-Destroying Halberd's power. Aren't you afraid of dying in his hands?"
Yuan Ling said in an unfathomable voice, "This is a huge gamble. I'm betting that Ye Xuan can survive the Nine Heavenly Immortal Tribulations. As for the battle between me and him, he can only be defeated by me. You know, if I don't have the means to keep him in check, how can I let him become an immortal?"
"What if you lose the bet?" The bloody shadow sighed.
"I won't lose. As long as he can pass the Immortal Tribulation and push open this door that has been sealed for ten thousand years, you and I will be able to see the light of day again." Yuan Ling smiled.
"Alright, I'll bet with you."
"But just in case, I will also step into the human world to help this kid." The bloody shadow's light dimmed and turned into a stream of light before disappearing.
As the blood-red figure left, the Yuan Spirit remained silent. After a few dozen breaths of time, a sneer came from the Yuan Spirit's mouth.
"Blood River, you're really an old fox. Since you don't trust me and want to leave yourself a way out, I'll see what happens in the end."
…
Jiangnan City, Xia Country.
It had been half a year since the battle between Takeshi Miyamoto and Ye Xuan. The ruined Jiangnan City was rebuilt once again. A large number of people returned to their former homes, making Jiangnan City full of vitality again.
The only difference was that there was no Qingyun Pavilion in Jiangnan City. The members of the Mansion of the Dead seemed to have disappeared from the world. Other than the occasional news of the members of the Mansion of the Dead, there was no trace of Ye Xuan and the others.
Half a year was not a long time, but it was not short either. Humans were evolving rapidly. Many human cultivators stood out and finally had the power to resist the slaughter of the Bloodsoul Beasts.
Everything was developing in a good direction, but the so-called gods in the world kept spreading bad news.
In the West, there was a mysterious black-clothed woman who kept killing God Spirits. Every time she went to a city, a God Spirit would fall at her hands. No one had ever seen this woman's face, but legends of her spread throughout the West.
In the East, the so-called gods had completely disappeared and were massacred in large numbers. No one knew who did it, but the people clearly understood one thing, and that was that these gods were only powerful in cultivation, but they could also die. This made the humans cultivate even more crazily, hoping that they could also slaughter gods and devour the cultivation of the so-called gods to accelerate their own evolution.
In the east, Riyao City!
A golden Immortal God's remnant soul exploded into a bloody mist. Ye Xuan's body turned into a terrifying vortex, sucking the bloody Qi into his body. He sat cross-legged in the void and kept refining it.
After a full hour, Ye Xuan slowly opened his eyes. A mouthful of turbid air sprayed out from his mouth, causing an explosion to sound out in the air.
"The seventh one is still not enough," Ye Xuan murmured to himself with a hint of disappointment in his eyes.
Since he returned to the State of Great Xia half a year ago, he had been traveling all over the eastern countries, constantly looking for these Immortal God's remnant souls to devour.
This was because Ye Xuan had a feeling that Yuan Ling was about to lose his patience. Only by becoming an immortal as soon as possible could he have enough confidence to face Yuan Ling. The only way for him to reach the late stage of the Tribulation Realm quickly was to devour the cultivation of these Immortal God's remnant souls.
However, Ye Xuan didn't expect that the amount of blood Qi needed to reach the late stage of the Tribulation Realm would be so terrifying. Even though he had devoured the cultivation of seven Immortal God's remnant souls, his progress was still extremely slow.
These seven Immortal God's remnant souls had cultivations ranging from the Nascent Soul Stage to the Spirit Severing Stage. There wasn't even a single Body Integration Stage cultivator, let alone a Tribulation Realm cultivator of the same realm as him. If all of them were Immortal God's remnant souls at this cultivation level, Ye Xuan calculated that even if he devoured a hundred of them, he wouldn't be able to reach the late stage of the Tribulation Realm.
Only by devouring the Immortal God's remnant souls at the Tribulation Realm would I have a chance to reach the late stage of the Tribulation Realm. Ye Xuan fell into deep thought.
However, Ye Xuan also understood that when a large number of Immortal God's remnant souls were devoured, the other Immortal God's remnant souls had already started to become vigilant. They had already hidden themselves.
As for the Tribulation Realm Immortal God's remnant souls, they were probably accumulating their strength and would appear before him at any time. After all, Ye Xuan was also a Tribulation Realm cultivator. In the eyes of these Immortal God's remnant souls, he was also a great tonic.
"I hope Yueshen doesn't disappoint me," Ye Xuan muttered to himself before transforming into a stream of light and shooting into the distance.
…
Mount Moyun was a famous mountain in Xia Country. In this era of global turmoil, Mount Moyun was completely devoid of human habitation. It could be said to be a pure land.
The Underworld had built their headquarters here, far away from the hustle and bustle of the city. It also prevented the incident with Takeshi Miyamoto from happening again.
The Azure Cloud Compound was filled with pavilions, terraces, and streams. It was filled with an ancient charm. It stood on the mountainside and was covered by clouds, giving off an illusory and hazy feeling.
Inside the Azure Cloud Compound!
Ye Xuan sat at the head of the table while Fatso Huang and Gu Beichen stood beside him. After half a year of recuperation, Wu Juexian and Monk Yuan Xu had also managed to survive with the infusion of Ye Xuan's blood energy.
