In the past month, the entire Yao Nation was shrouded in a horrifying atmosphere.
In the territories of Qianhu Nation, Tianlang Nation, Xuan Snake Tribe, and Flying Bear Tribe, a number of shocking incidents happened. More than a dozen small and medium-sized Yao Tribes were slaughtered overnight.
These Demon Clan members had died a horrible death. All the blood in their bodies had been sucked dry, leaving behind only withered Demon Clan corpses. What was even more terrifying was that not only were the Demon Clan members slaughtered, but even the Demon Clan members nearby that did not have any intelligence were also sucked dry.
This incident caused the entire Yao Nation to panic.
Qianhu Nation, in the cave abode on the highest peak.
The Blue Wolf King's face was pale as he muttered, "Demonic Path, it must be the Demonic Path. This is the method of the Demonic Path. That Elder of the Demonic Path did the same to heal himself …"
The Lord of Illusions narrowed his eyes and said in a low voice, "The elders of the Sage Sect are inhumane. We can't let this go on. Absorbing so much Blood Essence at once, I'm afraid someone is using it to cultivate the Demonic Art. If we let him go, he will become stronger and more difficult to deal with …"
The Blue Wolf King said, "If it's really those people, we're no match for them. If we want to kill an Elder of the Sage Sect, I'm afraid we'll have to call that bear and that snake together …"
The Lord of Illusions looked out of the cave abode and said, "Looks like it's time to go to Tianshan Mountain and the Snake Swamp."
In the extreme north of the Yao Nation, on an ice field.
The vast northern territory of the Sheng Continent was the territory of the Tianshan Bear Tribe. The climate here was extremely cold, and the land was covered in snow all year round. Stepping into the northern ice field, all one could see was white.
At this moment, there was a glaring red on one of the ice fields.
A few white bears fell on the ice, their blood soaking a large area of the ice beneath them. The blood was still spreading in all directions, and the few white bears had long lost their vitality.
A sinister human youth in a red robe floated in the air. Looking at the blood on the ice, he licked the blood at the corner of his mouth and whispered, "The blood of a familiar expert …"
He took a deep breath, and the blood under the ice gathered toward him, forming a river of blood that merged into his body.
The young man shuddered. His aura grew stronger, and his face regained some color. The white bears on the ice had all turned into shriveled corpses.
The young man looked at the abnormally strong corpse of a giant bear. With a wave of his hand, the bear corpse disappeared. He muttered, "When Old Five wakes up, it wouldn't be a bad idea to refine her into a Demonic Corpse …"
After collecting the bear carcass, he was about to leave when a white light suddenly whizzed towards him from the north.
The white light carried a powerful aura. Before it even arrived, an earth-shattering roar could be heard. "Who killed my son?!"
The young man looked in that direction, and the corners of his mouth curled up. "After killing the little one, the big one has come …"
He was only at the sixth level of cultivation, but he showed no fear in the face of an aura that was much more powerful than his own. A foul river of blood surged out from his body once more, blotting out the sky as it rushed towards the figure in the distance.
The river of blood and the white light collided, and a powerful wave of mana exploded. The ice plains within a radius of dozens of miles immediately collapsed, forming countless icicles that pierced towards the red-robed young man.
The icicles almost filled the void, and the young man had nowhere to hide. His body suddenly turned into a pool of blood, allowing the icicles to pass through him. Then, he turned into a streak of blood light and merged into the river of blood in the distance.
As the young man's body merged into the river of blood, the river of blood began to surge violently, as if it was boiling. In an instant, it enveloped the giant in the white light, forming a constantly shrinking ball of blood.
The ball of blood scurried around in the air above the ice plains, and at the same time, it was also constantly shrinking. The surface of the ball of blood surged even more violently, and from within came roars of shock and panic.
"What the hell are you!"
Within the ball of blood, the young man's voice was sinister. "To be able to contribute blood essence to this lord, your death is not without value …"
With that, the ball of blood suddenly fell silent for a moment, and then it began to expand violently. In the end, it exploded with a bang, and a streak of white light escaped, shooting off into the distance. The young man returned to his original form, but his face was rather pale. He licked the blood from the corner of his mouth and said softly, "It's been too long since I've fought. I've underestimated these juniors …"
His aura was much weaker than before, so he did not continue to pursue. Instead, he turned into a streak of blood-red light and disappeared in the opposite direction of the white light.
A day later, on Sky Mountain.
Within a huge ice cave, the Nine Heaven Snake King stared at a burly man with a withered aura. He said in shock, "What? Even you were no match for that person?"
The White Bear King still had lingering fear. He said, "If I hadn't self-destructed the artifact I'd nurtured for sixty years to escape, I probably would've died at the hands of that human."
The Blue Wolf Demon King asked, "Which demonic dao transcending elder injured you?"
The White Bear King shook his head. He said, "Not a demonic elder. That person was only at the sixth level."
The Blue Wolf King was in disbelief. He blurted out, "Impossible! How could a sixth level almost kill you? You think everyone is like that … that lord?"
The White Bear King said seriously, "I'm sure he's only at the sixth level, but his divine art is too strange. I've never seen such a strange and terrifying divine art before. Where did this person come from? How come I've never heard of him before …"
The Blue Wolf King asked suspiciously, "Is it not demonic?"
"It's demonic."
The Heaven Lord of Illusions was silent for a moment. He then said slowly, "I've read the history of the Demon Sect. Every few hundred or thousand years, a few powerful cultivators would suddenly appear in the Demon Sect. They were so powerful that they could kill and transcend through Dongxuan. The divine art that the human Bear Mountain mentioned was also recorded in the ancient records. Every three or four hundred years, a powerful cultivator would appear who was good at using blood arts. It's been more than four hundred years since the last powerful cultivator died."
The Nine Heaven Snake King said, "If it's demonic, then things are even more troublesome. This person has the power to kill us now. When his demonic arts are perfected and his cultivation improves, even if we work together, we might not be his match. At that time, even if we don't go to him, he'll come to us."
The powerful cultivators of the Demon Nation all had serious expressions. The Demon Nation had once been at odds with the Great Zhou, but only a portion of the demon forces were involved. The civil strife that followed was just a war between the Celestial Wolf Tribe and the Thousand Fox Tribe.
However, the situation now was different. Small demon clans had been destroyed under the four major forces. The mastermind's hand had already reached out to the White Bear King.
If they ignored it, this would become the greatest catastrophe in the Demon Nation in the past few hundred years.
The Heaven Lord of Myriad Illusions swept his gaze across the crowd and said, "Everyone is well aware of the situation in the Demon Country. I hope that in the coming days, we can put aside our past grudges and join forces to deal with our common enemy.
The White Bear King and the Nine Heaven Snake King looked at each other and nodded slowly.
Among the Four Great Factions of the Demonic Kingdom, the Wolf Clan and the Fox Clan had somehow formed an alliance. Even though there had always been territorial disputes and conflicts of interest between them, for now, they had a common enemy. Furthermore, it was an extremely powerful enemy.
They had to work together to survive the Demon Nation's crisis.
After a short secret discussion, the four major forces of the Demon Nation officially formed an alliance.
The Heaven Lord of Illusions looked at the weak White Bear King and took out a bottle of pills. He poured out a pill and threw it to the White Bear King, saying, "There might be a fierce battle ahead. Take this pill and your injuries will recover."
As the Heaven Lord of Illusions opened the jade bottle, the other three Demon Kings immediately smelled a medicinal fragrance. Judging from the fragrance, this pill was definitely not an ordinary one.
Pills that could be effective on Seventh Realms were already very precious. Furthermore, the demon race was not good at refining pills. Such pills were even harder to find in the Demon Nation. The Heaven Lord of Illusions actually had an entire bottle, which made the other demons envious.
The White Bear King accepted the pill and cupped his fists, saying, "Thank you, Brother Illusions. I wonder how much this pill costs? I will pay you with spiritual jades."
The Heaven Lord of Illusions waved his hand and said proudly, "It's just one pill. It's nothing. My son-in-law gave me several bottles. I won't be able to finish them all in a short time …"
The White Bear King said enviously, "Brother Illusions has found a good son-in-law. It's a pity that my daughters don't have this fate …"
The Green Wolf King glanced at him and said, "Forget about your daughters. They're all big and burly. Which human would like them? But those girls from the Jiutian Clan know how to pester people. That man is very lecherous. Jiutian, you might as well …"
The Heaven Lord of Illusions' face darkened and said coldly, "Green Demon, I advise you to mind your own business!"
