Yi Yun looked at these people with a cold expression. He knew that although these people lived because of him, they were all selfish fellows. They were constantly concerned with their lives. If not for them being rather obedient, Yi Yun would have long chased them away.
"Fairy Yourou, Luoyue, I'll give you these array flags. Wait here for me for a period of time. With the array formation around, your auras can be concealed. You will not be discovered by the monsters, "said Yi Yun.
"Brother Yi, are you still planning on staying in the Fey God Tomb?" asked Nanxuan Luoyue in astonishment.
The Fey God Tomb was so strange. Yi Yun had no plans on leaving despite obtaining the Blood Fey Bone?
"Yes, I still have some things I need to do," said Yi Yun with a nod.
"In that case, Young Master Yi, don't worry and mind your own business. There's no need to worry about us," said Fairy Yourou as she took the array flags.
She had a vague guess as to what Yi Yun wanted to do. It was likely related to the Blood Fey Bone, but it was Yi Yun's private matter. She did not probe further.
The others were somewhat disappointed when they heard that they could not leave. However, they did not dare say a word. They had already witnessed the might of Yi Yun's array formation. If Yi Yun chased them out of the array formation, it would be too late for them to cry.
"Maintain the array formation well. Listen to Fairy Yourou and Luoyue's instructions," said Yi Yun as he scanned them coldly.
"Yes, don't worry, Young Master Yi."
"We will definitely do our best. We will not let the two fairies be burdened."
The few of them hurriedly responded.
When Yi Yun saw that everything was settled, he turned and left.
Everyone watched as Yi Yun vanished into the Fey God Tomb. They had mixed feelings and wore different expressions.
It had been years since anyone dared to enter the Fey God Tomb. The place definitely hid opportunities but they lacked the strength to do so. All they could do was watch Yi Yun head off to seek out the opportunities.
The Fey God Tomb was filled with sanguine auras that hid all sorts of dangers. The deeper one went, the thicker the sanguine aura became. It was so dense that one could not even see their fingers in front of them.
"Wu Wu!" Sobbing sounds could be heard from the sanguine aura. There were also the sounds of people conversing.
Some of the sounds even appeared behind Yi Yun.
"Save me! Fellow Daoist, save me! "
Yi Yun remained unmoved as he continued walking forward.
A slim girl's figure let out a sobbing sound as she slowly approached from behind. She opened her weak arms as if she was going to hug Yi Yun.
"Ah!"
A layer of gray fog immediately appeared over Yi Yun's body. When the girl slammed into the black fog, she immediately let out a shrill cry that resembled an owl's. Her face that had been reduced to white bones beneath her black hair was revealed as she retreated in horror. She no longer dared to approach Yi Yun.
"These are warriors that died in the Fey God Tomb. They have been corrupted by the sanguine aura and turned into wraiths. Some of them are even born naturally here. They have the ability to bewitch one's mind. Warriors that encounter them are usually doomed. However, it doesn't seem to be of any use to you, "said the Blood Fey Bone.
Along the way, the more it understood Yi Yun's strength, the more astonished it became. Nameless Sword was already extremely talented, but compared to Yi Yun, the difference was like night and day. Yi Yun's bone age was definitely not more than a hundred years old, but be it his combat strength or willpower, they were extremely powerful.
"Do you really want me to be harmed by these things? Next time you encounter something like this, you'd better tell me what it is in advance, instead of acting after the fact. If not, I'll directly refine you. "Yi Yun said with a faint smile.
"No, you are overthinking things. I just feel that these things can't do a thing to you," said the Blood Fey Bone.
Yi Yun sneered. The Blood Fey Bone did not waste any more time as it continued guiding Yi Yun.
As he walked through the sanguine aura, he could not sense any changes in distance or time. In the end, even Yi Yun was unable to determine how far he had gone.
If a warrior were to get lost in here, they would probably lose themselves in the endless loneliness, becoming a wraith in the sanguine aura.
At that moment, Yi Yun suddenly sensed a rich sanguine aura ahead of him. It even made him feel like he had walked into a sea of blood and a mountain of corpses.
Yi Yun was alarmed as he took a few steps forward. Suddenly, his heart skipped a beat as he came to a halt.
He looked down and as the sanguine aura was pushed away by the Primordial Destruction domain, Yi Yun finally saw where he was.
He was on a tall cliff. Yi Yun was standing by the edge of the cliff, and beneath him was an extremely wide river.
What flowed in this river was extremely thick blood, and there were also a large number of white bones, some of which belonged to humans, and some of which belonged to demonic beasts. And standing beside the surging blood river, he could not hear a single sound. It was as though he was standing in a silent world. An extremely vast and lonely feeling immediately inundated him.
Yi Yun stood there silently. From the blood river, he actually sensed the concept of time.
Death was a law of time. The blood river flowing here was also a law of time.
"How fascinating." Yi Yun originally believed that the blood river would instill terror in him, but he felt a sense of tranquility.
At that moment, a wave suddenly surged out from the blood river. An extremely dangerous feeling that left one's hair standing on end immediately inundated him.
Yi Yun immediately converged his aura as he heard a deep and ancient roar. The blood river's waves churned as huge waves surged into the distance.
When the wave surged past the cliff where Yi Yun was, Yi Yun sensed a gaze. A pair of extremely cold, gigantic eyes appeared in the blood river as they swept across the cliff.
When the gaze swept past him, Yi Yun felt his body turn cold as though he had been frozen in an ice cavern. He was already prepared to summon the Ascending Dragon Cauldron at any moment.
However, the gaze only swept past Yi Yun before vanishing into the blood river. Following that, the waves surged into the distance, and soon, the blood river was restored to its tranquility.
Only then did Yi Yun heave a long sigh of relief. However, when he looked at the blood river in front of him, the tranquility he felt from before vanished. The blood river was just too dangerous.
"What was that?" asked Yi Yun.
"The river god of the blood river. But as for what it was, I'm not sure either, "said the Blood Fey Bone.
Yi Yun grunted coldly. He felt that the Blood Fey Bone likely knew, but it did not want to tell him.
However, against such a terrifying existence, Yi Yun held to the principle of not attacking unless attacked. He did not plan on delving into it.
"Now is the best time to gather Blood Spirit Jade and cultivate in the blood river. The next time the river god appears will be at least twenty hours later," warned the Blood Fey Bone.
Yi Yun circled around the cliff and walked a distance before coming to the side of the blood river. The blood river was similarly suffused with a blood-red mist. The closer he approached, the more he found the river's surface hazy. He could not see it clearly.
The sides of the blood river were lined with white rocks at a glance, but when he approached it, he discovered that it was filled with bones. Due to the prolonged erosion of the river, most of them had been weathered. They looked no different from rocks.
Yi Yun slowly approached the blood river and soon discovered Blood Spirit Jade by the riverbank.
The closer he got to the blood river, the more Blood Spirit Jade there was. The quality was also better.
It was obvious that the entire riverbed of the blood river was covered in Blood Spirit Jade.
Yi Yun constantly gathered the Spirit Jade, but soon, he realized that he had reached the end of the blood river. In front of him was a tall mountain with a gigantic cave entrance. The blood river gushed out of the cave.
Before Yi Yun reached the cave entrance, he caught a whiff of blood. The sanguine aura was dozens of times thicker than the blood river.
"This cave is the birthplace of the blood river. Even I have never been to this place before. If the Fey God Tomb has any opportunities, they must be here," said the Blood Fey Bone.
Yi Yun sneered. It was impossible for the Blood Fey Bone to be so kind as to warn him of the opportunities. It was clearly plotting something. However, if Yi Yun was afraid of the schemes of a bone, to the point of giving up on the opportunities, then his martial cultivation would have been for nothing.
The cave entrance emanated sanguine aura. At the same time, there were nomological fluctuations. It was clearly a natural array formation.
If one did not know the nomological laws, they would not be able to enter even if they came here. Furthermore, the naturally formed array formation was one with its surroundings, making it extremely difficult to crack.
Yi Yun slowly pondered and divined at the cave entrance.
After a long period of time, Yi Yun finally figured out the laws within. He began producing hand seals in a bid to crack the array.
At that moment, he suddenly felt alarmed. He immediately stopped and carefully observed the area.
Yi Yun's back immediately broke out into a cold sweat.
The natural array formation was actually an array within an array. The first layer was a manifestation of laws, while the second layer was a condensation of lifeblood.
Cracking the first layer would trigger the killing array within. And the killing array would crush the person into a pool of blood, fusing them into the blood river, never to be reincarnated. Only inanimate objects could pass through the natural array formation.
The blood in the blood river, as well as the bones and Blood Spirit Jade in the river, could safely pass through the array formation, but Yi Yun could not.
Thankfully, Yi Yun had noticed something amiss at the final moment. If not, the outcome would have been dire.
Yi Yun carefully divined it a few more times. After confirming that there were no other problems, he began cracking the array.
Four hours later, Yi Yun unlocked the laws and entered the cave.
The cave was extremely vast, as though it was a world of its own. There were countless stalactites hanging above his head, and they were all formed from blood. Droplets of blood dripped down from them.
Yi Yun followed the blood river deep into the cave. There was only the sound of blood dripping down the stalactites. Apart from that, there was no other sound.
After approaching a certain distance, countless gigantic black shadows suddenly appeared in front of him.
Yi Yun was alarmed, but he quickly realized that the black shadows were actually gigantic skeletons.
These skeletons belonged to Fey beasts, but they were extremely large in size. They must have been terrifying behemoths when they were alive. Even though they had been dead for an unknown period of time, their skeletons still emitted a majestic aura that left one alarmed.
It was unknown what had happened here in the past for so many behemoths to die here and gather in this cave after their deaths.
