Chapter 66: Chapter 66: Blood Demon Ancestor, World Reincarnation?
"This global martial arts competition sounds pretty impressive. I wonder if I’ll have a chance to participate."
Luo Tao looked at the post on his phone with some envy.
"Forget it, you little Golden Core. You’ll just get thrashed," Chen Lan teased.
"Hmph, don’t rush. I’ll be Nascent Soul soon, and then I’ll catch up to you, don’t cry then," Luo Tao retorted disdainfully.
"Alright, alright, I’ll wait for you to catch up," Chen Lan smiled slightly, his expression gradually calming: "I plan to go into closed-door training soon. You’ll be responsible for taking care of the students. But don’t worry, I’ll arrange magical treasures to protect you all."
He planned to continue training on the Moon; he had now gained an additional life path.
He already possessed six paths, although he hadn’t mastered any of them.
He wanted to first work on the path of power and achieve entry-level mastery.
Compared to the other paths, this path was the easiest. The others were impossible to progress without external help.
Unfortunately, he had looked throughout Blue Star and hadn’t found any objects containing resonance of the Dao. Perhaps these things haven’t emerged yet or are hidden deep beneath Blue Star.
Strangely, he couldn’t perceive Blue Star’s underground, as if something was obstructing him.
It was almost certain that there were big secrets beneath Blue Star, but it wasn’t something he should be contemplating now.
The truth would naturally come to light.
"Alright, you can go into closed-door training now," Luo Tao nodded.
The next moment, Chen Lan disappeared.
He reappeared on the Moon’s surface.
Chen Lan casually set up a barrier that could make him invisible to others, even to the Divine Sense of an Immortal Emperor.
No satellite could detect him; this was the quietest place for secluded training.
"Next is to comprehend the path of power. Until entry-level mastery, I won’t leave seclusion."
Chen Lan sat cross-legged, closed his eyes, and his soul gradually entered the Void Universe.
In the cosmos, there were three thousand dim stars, each representing a different path.
Among them, six stars shone brightly, representing the six paths he had understood.
He slowly comprehended the path of power, with Spiritual Qi and Dao resonance suffusing around his body, mysterious and hazy.
...
"The Great Emperor has left?"
Lying on the large bed, Peng Dahai sensed the terrifying Divine Sense belonging only to Celestial Venerable Xiao Yao departing Blue Star.
He could sense the Great Emperor’s Divine Sense almost daily, having long lost any privacy, yet he dared not resist.
After all, he had been left alive.
Yesterday, he knew the Great Emperor wouldn’t be on Blue Star for a while because that terrifying Divine Sense was gone.
Now it’s gone again. He could basically judge that the Great Emperor was in seclusion.
He’s already so strong, yet still goes into seclusion. Are they even allowed to live?
Peng Dahai sighed, but soon he began to worry.
The Great Emperor was gone; others probably knew too, and some might start to stir.
Now, he was the strongest on Blue Star, but he didn’t want to make a move; it was troublesome.
Hopefully, those people wouldn’t cause trouble.
...
Black Dragon City.
On a mountain in the depths, there was a cave unknown to anyone. The entrance was covered by trees and wrapped in vines.
Even if someone passed by, they wouldn’t see the cave.
In the deepest part of the cave, it was empty, but the ground had a formation drawn in a red unknown liquid!
The symbols on the array were obscure and difficult to understand, even if research teams came, they wouldn’t be able to decipher them even after decades.
At this moment, the array suddenly shone with a red light, and a red liquid slowly flowed out resembling blood!
Those liquids flowed along the array, and after five minutes, all the symbols and the entire formation were dyed a brighter red.
"Jie jie jie, I, the Blood Demon Ancestor, have finally revived!"
An eerie and terrifying voice suddenly echoed in the empty cave, as if coming from the Underworld, horrifying and sinister.
With the sound, the blood on the array began to gather toward the center, merging together.
Slowly growing, slowly expanding, a silhouetted figure took shape, standing at the center of the array.
A blood man stood there.
The next moment, an even more bizarre scene occurred.
The blood began to form bones, then internal organs and meridians, finally forming skin, becoming a real person!
A real man, a naked man standing there, his face plain and unremarkable, looking like he’s in his forties or fifties, but with a very burly figure, standing at one meter ninety.
"Hahaha, I’m back again!" The man laughed heartily, his terrifying laughter echoing throughout the cave entrance.
"Couldn’t have expected it, I, the Blood Demon Ancestor, am back again! I’m the one who escaped divine punishment. This era will ultimately be ruled by me!"
The man looked around the cave, inhaling the fresh air, extremely excited.
After so many years of slumber, he finally awoke again.
And he wasn’t destroyed but escaped the cycle of the world, divine punishment’s annihilation, retaining power!
"Unfortunately, dropped to Saint Realm, but it seems this world’s blood energy is even richer. I should be able to quickly recover to Immortal Emperor level!" The Blood Demon Ancestor looked at his own realm and sighed.
After so many years of slumber, the realm had dropped significantly. It seemed he needed to quickly improve his cultivation.
Thinking of this, the Blood Demon Ancestor licked his lips.
He hadn’t drunk blood for a very long time; it’s time to go out and drink some blood.
With a swift move, he came to the world outside the cave. When he expanded his Divine Sense for a search, he was suddenly startled.
"What’s going on? Isn’t this Blue Star? What are those buildings doing here?"
"And what’s running on the ground, iron-skinned Demon Beasts, and humans can sit inside them?"
"After the cycle, such things happened!"
"Why are there so many cultivators? Wasn’t the world supposed to cycle?"
When he saw the billions of cultivators in Huaxia, he went numb.
Wasn’t he supposed to be the first to awaken?
But soon, he was startled, hurriedly closing his Divine Sense, retreating into the cave again.
"How can there be a Saint King here?!" The Blood Demon Ancestor went numb.
He had just sensed a divine sense stronger than his, that of a Saint King’s aura!
Even though he had fallen to Saint, he had once been an Immortal Emperor.
How could there be a Saint King? Wasn’t the world supposed to have cycled?
"No, the Great Emperor of Nine Heavens and others aren’t here. This is... ahhhh!"
Suddenly, the Blood Demon Ancestor held his head, crying out in agony, his face turning pale, his body trembling uncontrollably.
This situation lasted a full five minutes before he stopped.
The Blood Demon Ancestor bent his knees, kneeling on the ground, then collapsed, looking despairingly at the cave ceiling.
"Didn’t think that even this couldn’t escape from you. Still have a Soul Restriction placed on me."
The Blood Demon Ancestor felt unprecedented despair.
He tried everything to escape the world cycle but ultimately couldn’t escape those people’s clutches.
Divine punishment?
Haha.
