"Ancient Demon Temple."
"Blood Demon Flag."
"Demon Envoy."
Standing next to the blood pool, Chen Zong furrowed his brow.
Instinctively, Chen Zong felt uneasy from the bottom of his heart.
"Forget it. Even if the sky falls, it's not my turn to hold it up." Unable to understand, Chen Zong shook his head. In the end, he was just a small Pseudo Transcendent Realm cultivator. There were many Transcendent Realm masters above him.
"But when I go back, I'll have to report this to Master. Maybe he can understand."
After saying that, Chen Zong appeared next to the four controlled Remote Yuan Heavenly Sect disciples and carefully examined them.
"It's hopeless." He sighed softly and couldn't help but lament.
The blood in these four people had already disappeared. In other words, they were already dead when they were caught by the Blood Demon Envoy. Their blood was probably absorbed by the Blood Demon Envoy to heal his injuries.
If he was caught, the consequences would be the same.
Fortunately, he was strong enough, and fortunately, the other party was unable to display their full strength for some reason.
With a wave of his hand, Chen Zong picked up the four people's Mustard Seed Bags and found the Blood Spirit Stones in them. There were a total of 32 pieces, which was equivalent to 3,200 Sect merit points. As for the other things, Chen Zong did not touch them. He sorted out a Mustard Seed Bag and stored the four corpses in it, preparing to bring them back to the Remote Yuan Heavenly Sect.
However, Chen Zong did not leave immediately. His eyes fell on the blood pool.
Because of the Blood Demon Envoy, the blood in the blood pool had been absorbed, leaving only a thin layer. Chen Zong could vaguely see wisps of bloody light shining.
After cleaning up the blood in the blood pool, Chen Zong's breathing became rapid.
There were very few things that could make him so excited, but it was because there was a layer of Blood Spirit Stones at the bottom of the blood pool. The flashing red light made Chen Zong feel like he was going to be blinded.
He immediately started digging.
After spending half a day, Chen Zong finally dug out all the Blood Spirit Stones at the bottom of the blood pool.
It was a bountiful harvest!
There were more than 130 low-grade blood spirit stones, 18 mid-grade blood spirit stones, and three high-grade blood spirit stones.
Including the low-grade Blood Spirit Stones he had obtained before, if he exchanged them for Sect merit points, he would have more than 36,000 merit points.
Although it couldn't be compared to the 100,000 merit points that his master had given him previously, it still felt different since he had earned it himself.
Taking a deep breath, Chen Zong calmed himself down. Relying on his excellent memory, he quickly left the cave.
After walking out of the cave, Chen Zong looked back and suddenly had a thought, "Does the person who brought us to this cave know about the situation here?"
There were two kinds of situations, knowing or not knowing.
If it was the former, then it meant that the other party had been planning this for a long time. It was possible that they weren't deliberately targeting them, but rather casting a net. As long as someone accepted the blood spirit essence stone mission, there was a chance they would be targeted.
If it was the latter, it could only be said that he was unlucky. Of course, for Chen Zong now, he was very lucky.
Whether it was the case or not, he would return to Cangyu Mountain and report to his master. Then he would make a decision.
Turning into a flowing light, Chen Zong quickly left the mountain peak and headed out of Hongyuan Mountain.
Traveling at full speed, Chen Zong returned to the Tai Yuan Heaven Sect two days later. He went directly to Cangyu Mountain, and sent a message to his master on the way.
Cangyu Palace!
"The Ancient Demonic Palace!" The master of Cangyu Mountain looked serious and then murmured to himself, "Has it come back from the ashes?"
Chen Zong stood below. After reporting all the information, the master of Cangyu Mountain looked serious. From his expression and eyes, Chen Zong saw shock and deep fear.
The longer Chen Zong stayed in the Tai Yuan Heaven Sect, the more shocked he was by the strength of the sect. Until now, he still didn't know how powerful the Tai Yuan Heaven Sect was.
He only knew that the master of Cangyu Mountain was an expert in the late stage of the Profound Heaven Realm.
On Chaotian Island, the Profound Heaven Realm experts in the so-called high-rank Sect were only in the early stage of the Profound Heaven Realm.
What kind of power was the Ancient Demonic Palace to be able to make an expert in the late stage of the Profound Heaven Realm feel shock and fear?
Was it not weaker than the Tai Yuan Heaven Sect?
Chen Zong took out the four corpses. The master of Cangyu Mountain looked at them and didn't say anything. He just left the four corpses behind.
"You should keep this to yourself. Remember not to spread it." The Azure Feather Mountain Lord's gaze landed on Luo Zhong and Chen Zong, and an unprecedented solemness could be seen in his eyes. "You must also remember that in the future, if you encounter anyone from the Ancient Sky Devil Hall, kill them if you can. You must not show mercy at all. If you are not their match, flee if you can, and don't hesitate."
"Yes, master." Chen Zong also answered seriously.
From the master of Cangyu Mountain's words, Chen Zong clearly felt the master of Cangyu Mountain's fear of the Ancient Demonic Palace.
He was very curious, but since his master didn't say anything, Chen Zong also understood that the level of the Ancient Demonic Palace was too high. It wasn't something he could come into contact with now.
"Okay, you can leave now. Cultivate well. If there is a chance, challenge an Invincible Master. If you can become an Invincible Master, it will be unimaginably beneficial for you to break through to the Transcendent Realm." The master of Cangyu Mountain encouraged.
"Yes, master." Chen Zong bowed and slowly left Cangyu Mountain. He then turned and walked down the mountain.
He didn't return to High Cliff Pavilion. Instead, he went to Myriad Administration Hall through the portal.
"I found three Low Grade Blood Spirit Essence Stones."
"I found five."
Stepping into Myriad Administration Hall, Chen Zong heard many discussions about the Blood Spirit Essence Stones.
The mission of collecting Blood Spirit Essence Stones was a mission that anyone could accept. As long as one was an official disciple, most of them would accept it. Then, they would go to Hong Yuan Mountain alone or in groups to search for them.
"You're all very good. I only found one."
Hong Yuan Mountain was a place where blood flowed for thousands of miles due to a great battle. As a result, treasures like Blood Spirit Essence Stones were formed, but after many years of digging, there were fewer and fewer of them. Sometimes, one might not even find them.
In less than ten days, one could find a few Blood Spirit Essence Stones and obtain a few hundred merit points from the Sect. For most disciples, it was a great harvest.
"Amazing, I actually found a Mid-Rank Blood Spirit Essence Stone."
Chen Zong waited in line. There were many people who turned in this mission.
Five!
Ten!
There were even some that reached twenty, which had already caused a series of exclamations.
In less than ten days, he had gained two thousand merit points. It was very amazing.
Most of the Blood Spirit Essence Stones were Low Grade. If a Mid-Rank one appeared, it would definitely cause a commotion. As for a High-Rank one, it had not appeared yet.
Finally, it was Chen Zong's turn.
In the Tai Yuan Sky Sect, Chen Zong's reputation was not very resounding because he kept a low profile. As for the previous grudge between him and Mingguang Mountain, it was only spread in a certain circle. The scope was limited.
But this time, Chen Zong's name was destined to be widely known.
The red light flashed, almost blinding everyone's eyes. An astonishing Blood Qi fluctuation spread out and pervaded the surroundings. Everyone in the Wan Zhi Hall felt their Blood Qi become restless.
Their eyes were as big as copper bells, and their mouths were so wide open that a fist could be stuffed in.
There was a large pile of blood-red stones on the table. They were Low-Rank Blood Spirit Essence Stones.
"Low-Rank … Blood Spirit Essence Stones … One hundred and eighty-six …" The person in charge of the Wan Zhi Hall stuttered. Even though he was experienced and knowledgeable, he could not help but feel surprised.
There were too many.
At least since he entered the Wan Zhi Hall decades ago, this had never happened.
"A total of eighteen thousand and six hundred merit points. Junior Brother, please take out your identity token." His tone returned to normal, but it was much softer than before.
"Wait a moment." Chen Zong took out other Blood Spirit Essence Stones.
"There's more!"
"That … that … that's a Mid-Rank Blood Spirit Essence Stone!"
"Three … Three … Go … Go …"
When Chen Zong took out the three high-grade Blood Spirit Essence Stones, the eyes of those who knew what was good for them widened even more. Their eyeballs bulged out of their sockets as they trembled and stammered, unable to speak a complete sentence.
"Okay." Chen Zong stood with his hands behind his back.
"Junior Brother … Junior Brother … Wait a moment …"
After a round of calculation, Chen Zong finally received thirty-six thousand and six hundred merit points, all of which were stored in his identity token.
After receiving the merit points, he quickly left under the shocked gazes of the crowd. He returned to Green Feather Mountain and went straight to the Martial Arts Stage.
Chen Zong, who entered the Martial Arts Stage to comprehend and cultivate, did not know that from today onwards, his name would spread throughout the Tai Yuan Sky Sect.
"More than thirty-six thousand merit points."
"That's too scary. He actually obtained so many merit points in one go. This is unprecedented."
"This Chen Zong's luck is really heaven-defying. He actually obtained so many Blood Spirit Essence Stones in one go. Not only are there Mid-Rank Blood Spirit Essence Stones, but there are also High-Rank ones. Where did he get them?"
"Hmph, so many Blood Spirit Essence Stones, maybe he stole them." There were also people who were jealous.
But no matter what, Chen Zong's name had truly entered the ears of every disciple.
Some people were shocked, while others were aghast. One of them was the person who had led Chen Zong's group to the Blood Devil Envoy's cave.
He had thought that with the Blood Devil Envoy's strength, Chen Zong's group would die without a doubt. He had not expected Chen Zong to come back alive, and even bring back a large number of Blood Spirit Essence Stones.
"As far as I know, High-Rank Blood Spirit Essence Stones can only be obtained from the bottom of the blood pool. Lord Blood Devil Envoy can't have let others take them away." Feng Yuan was restless, his thoughts turning rapidly, "Could it be that Lord Blood Devil Envoy was defeated?"
Feng Yuan was not sure whether the Blood Devil Envoy was defeated or Chen Zong was subdued.
"Let's leave first."
Feng Yuan made a prompt decision and immediately moved. However, he was intercepted before he could go down the mountain.
The one who intercepted him was the Zhen Yuan Guards.
Although Feng Yuan's strength was not weak, facing the well-prepared Zhen Yuan Guards, he did not have much strength to resist. He was directly captured and taken away, unable to even commit suicide.
When Chen Zong came out of the Martial Arts Stage, he received a message from his master, the Blue Feather Mountain Lord.
"It has been confirmed that the cave is indeed the cave of the Blood Devil Banner of the Ancient Sky Demon Hall. However, after being injured by you, no one knows where he escaped to." The Blue Feather Mountain Lord said, "In view of your merit, the Sect has decided to reward you with merit points. Hand over your token."
