Chapter 127: Chapter 113: Blood Runs Hot When Enemies Meet
But the four giant iron chains locked his hands and feet, trapping him in this place, making it difficult to break free.
On the man’s body, there were deep sword marks revealing the bone, blood constantly gushing out, flowing to the ground, even seeping out of the grand array at some point, flowing in all directions.
Countless streams of blood, like a spider’s web, continuously spread out, turning the forbidden territory into a grim and terrifying ghost realm.
Or perhaps it should be said, it’s precisely because of this man’s existence that this place became a forbidden territory.
"Hahaha, Celestial Pond, you risked death, sought demonic power with your body, but in the end, it’s all futile!"
The man trapped within the Four Saints Sealing Evil Array had a originally refined and elegant face that twisted into an evil and frenzied bloody visage, trying to break free and regain freedom.
However, no matter how many attempts he made, he couldn’t break free.
After all, this body prison was meticulously constructed by Celestial Wave Sword Monarch of the Sword Sect, using his own martial bone and flesh and blood.
"Blood food! I need more blood food!"
"Blood River Demon Monarch, the blood food you requested, I’ve brought it."
Outside the grand array, a few figures suddenly appeared, the tall Songg Xin at this moment throwing four martial arts rookies, who were tightly bound, in front of the Blood River Demon Monarch.
"Hahaha, good, good, good, once I break free from this confinement, rewards will flow generously."
Seeing the four fresh, living humans, the demented, bloody face of the Blood River Demon Monarch jumped excitedly from the corpse of Celestial Wave Sword Monarch, coveting the "sacrifices" on the ground, especially one particularly well-shaped pretty girl.
"Not bad, not bad, excellent bone structure, her primal yin is intact, she’s the perfect cauldron, just right for refining into a grand elixir to help this Demon Monarch break free from this cage."
Imprisoned here for millennia, out of sight of the sky, suppressed and miserable, the Blood River Demon Monarch was impatient to shatter the seal, invade the human world, and vent freely.
The desires suppressed in his heart for so long, he was nearly driven mad.
Watching as the blood on the ground seemed alive, creeping up to her ankles and climbing onto her body, Yuan Jingfei was so frightened she got goosebumps all over.
"Songg Xin, are you crazy? My dad won’t let you get away with this!"
"Heh heh, in that case, once I become a Martial Arts Master, I’ll wipe out your entire Linjiang Yuan Clan."
"Senior Brother Songg, spare me, I can give you money!"
"Heh heh, I don’t need money, so give me your life instead."
These students he tied up were rookies in the martial arts world, from Zhicheng Middle School, the second-ranked prestigious school in Linjiang City.
Especially Yuan Jingfei, she was the school belle of Zhicheng Middle School, with high looks and a great figure, and also possessed genius-level strength, although her actual combat abilities were weak due to her family’s resources.
But that was only because her martial arts will wasn’t up to par, purely speaking of talent, she was stronger than Songg Xin.
Once, she was a genius that Songg Xin could only look up to.
Now, she had fallen to become a sacrifice presented to evil demons by Songg Xin.
After being modified by the Blood River Demon Monarch, although Songg Xin’s cultivation hadn’t improved much, his real combat power had already surpassed many professional-level martial artists.
It’s like a silverback gorilla, that never went to grade school, being able to beat up many university graduate human boxing champions.
In the martial arts world, strength is strength, rank is rank, it’s not a simple primary-three-will-be-better-than-primary-one conversion.
The ranking and cultivation are just a part of strength.
Besides that, you also have to consider your inner cultivation, your external training foundation, your current physiological state, psychological state, and whether you have mastered advanced martial techniques.
The real battle is not about putting ranks out in comparison but about who has more mastery over their own power, and which person has more precise timing control.
And Yuan Jingfei was captured because the physique of the modified Songg Xin was vastly superior to hers.
Songg Xin had mediocre aptitude; though born into a martial arts family, without Yuan Hao using Winged Dragon’s perfect flesh and blood to modify his bloodline and increase his aptitude, he would hardly ever hope to reach the realm of Martial Arts Master in his lifetime.
This time, to obtain more powerful strength, he did not hesitate to collaborate with the evil demon sealed within the Sword Sect’s forbidden territory.
In fact, as early as fifteen years ago, when Songg Yanhai first explored the Divine Feather Sword Sect, he already learned of the Blood River Demon Monarch’s existence and deliberately concealed it.
To this day, the authorities are unaware there exists such a terrifying mythical life form beneath the forbidden land.
Otherwise, they wouldn’t have merely marked this place as a "fierce site."
And once the Blood River Demon Monarch breaks out of the Grotto Heaven, it will inevitably cause a monstrous blood wave in Linjiang City, and the number of people affected could reach a million, replaying the tragedy of the Dian Country Fog City being wantonly slaughtered by a mythical life form.
Just as Yuan Jingfei and the others were plunged into despair, five uninvited guests arrived outside the sealing array.
"What a coincidence, Songg Xin."
Ye Qingzhou walked over slowly: "Just in time, I shall dispose of the likes of you here and now."
"Ye Qingzhou classmate! Save me!"
The moment Yuan Jingfei saw Ye Qingzhou, tears of joy welled up in the corners of her eyes.
Ye Qingzhou tilted his head: "Who are you? Do I know you?"
Upon hearing, Yuan Jingfei was greatly affected.
Despite being a famous beauty at Zhicheng Middle School, am I that unnoticeable?
However, at the brink of life and death, this isn’t the time to dwell on such matters.
"Ye Qingzhou, please save me, Songg Xin wants to assist the demon in the array to escape, planning to offer all of us as blood sacrifices."
Yuan Jingfei and the others cried out in accusation, directing their grievances at Songg Xin.
Seeing Ye Qingzhou, Songg Xin was also burning with anger like enemies meeting on a narrow path: "Did you kill Yuan Hao and Li Yanxin?"
