Chapter 154: Blood Demon Sect
Chapter 154: Blood Demon Sect
"There are more people? When will it end?" Su Zhan frowned, abandoning the idea of putting away the Great Sun Star Sword and ending his divine state.
"Friend Su, I will continue to set up the array. If the enemy is too strong, just let them enter the Reverse Five Elements Array. With the power of the formation and your help, we won't fear even if two Fish-Dragon Sixth Transformations come!" Chu Xuanyi said and continued arranging the array.
Su Zhan looked towards the entrance of the valley.
In less than ten seconds, two figures appeared: an elderly man and a young man, both wearing grey robes.
"This is a Fish-Dragon Sixth Transformation level monster. It seems there may be treasures hidden in this valley; otherwise, these two wouldn't be so eager to kill this monster. However, to be able to kill a Sixth Transformation monster, these two have some skill!" The grey-robed youth said to the elderly man.
The grey-robed elder nodded and said, "Reveal your identity and let them leave."
"Alright."
The grey-robed youth looked at Su Zhan and his voice spread, "I am Bloodfang, the Grey Robe Elder of the Blood Demon Sect. This person is the High Elder, Lord Muguang. If you don't want your entire family to perish, leave now!"
"Blood Demon Sect? Another arrogant group?" Su Zhan responded displeased.
Chu Xuanyi's pupils contracted. "Friend Su, the Blood Demon Sect is an extremely powerful force, almost comparable to the Heavenly Profound Holy Land of the Tianxuan Empire! The Blood Demon Sect has been influential for several dynasties and even has some influence within the Tianxuan Empire. I never expected that we would encounter people from the Blood Demon Sect! The High Elder is at the peak of the Fish-Dragon Sixth Transformation! Maybe even a Half-Saint!"
Half-Saint refers to those who attempted to break through to the Saint Realm but failed during the tribulation. They fortunately survived, and their cultivation became stronger than the typical peak of the Fish-Dragon Sixth Transformation but still couldn't compare to a Saint. Half-Saints could be considered the strongest combat power below Saints.
Bloodfang smiled and said, "Now that you know how powerful our Blood Demon Sect is, why don't you run away?"
"So, it's a cult!" Su Zhan's gaze turned cold, and he said disdainfully, "A bunch of cowards who bully the weak and fear the strong. Are you trying to talk me to death?"
"You!" Bloodfang became furious but didn't act. Instead, he took a step back and said, "Lord Muguang, please kill them!"
"Alright."
The elderly man named Muguang snorted coldly, "Ignorant brat, you are narrow-minded and lack vision!" Then, he curved his hand into a claw shape and, from a distance of several kilometers, grabbed towards Su Zhan through the air!
"Whoosh!"
Five blood-red claw rays, dozens of meters long, flew at extreme speed towards Su Zhan. Along the way, rocks that were relatively close were instantly reduced to dust.
Five gullies appeared below!
Feeling the power of this strike, Su Zhan took a deep breath, activating his divine state to the extreme. Even thirty-six golden dragon veins appeared all over his body.
Then, he struck with his sword!
A starry giant dragon, with every strand of sword aura carrying the intent of the sword, flew out.
"Boom!"
The giant dragon collided with the claw marks between the two. They both dissipated simultaneously!
At the center of the contact between the two attacks, an area of several hundred meters in radius was evaporated and flattened!
Bloodfang was somewhat surprised, "I didn't expect this person to be so powerful, able to contend with you, Lord Muguang."
Muguang's expression changed slightly as he retracted his hand, deeply looking at Su Zhan, and then whispered, "Bloodfang, let's go! This person is quite tricky, and there's also a formation inside. It's not easy to deal with them. Let's take care of important matters first!"
"Lord Muguang, you"
"Do you question my decision?" Muguang's voice turned cold.
Bloodfang quickly said respectfully, "I dare not!"
Then, he glanced reluctantly at Su Zhan and added, "You got lucky. We have important matters to attend to and no time to waste on you!"
After speaking, he followed Muguang and left.
They walked more than ten miles before Muguang stopped and his face turned pale. He extended his right hand, which was now covered in blood. Sometime earlier, his right hand had been seriously injured due to the terrifying sword technique of Su Zhan. It would take a day of recuperation to fully recover.
Bloodfang was shocked, "Lord Muguang, this"
"It was my momentary carelessness. I didn't anticipate that kid's sword technique would be so terrifying, causing injury to the meridians in my right hand. I need a day of recovery to fully heal."
Muguang's eyes flickered with cold light, "However, judging from the power of his sword technique, even if I had unleashed my full strength from the beginning, I might only have about a twenty percent chance of winning against him. This guy, at the Fish-Dragon Second Transformation realm, actually possesses the strength to contend with a Half-Saint! He's a monster!"
"Contending with a Half-Saint at the Fish-Dragon Second Transformation realm?"
Bloodfang was dumbfounded, then shook his head repeatedly, "That's impossible! Even the geniuses of those Xuantian Holy Lands wouldn't be able to do that!"
"I felt it personally. Could there be any falsehood?" Muguang snorted.
"Apologies, Lord Muguang, I'm just too shocked," Bloodfang hurriedly said.
"If I hadn't felt it personally, I wouldn't have believed that there could be someone in this world who could contend with a Half-Saint at the Fish-Dragon Second Transformation realm. This person looks so young too; he might have obtained the inheritance of an ancient powerhouse!" Muguang's eyes flashed with greed. "It is said that those ancient powerhouses view Saints as mere ants, as if they were gods in this world! If he obtained the complete inheritance of such a powerhouse, perhaps he really could contend with a Half-Saint at the Fish-Dragon Second Transformation realm! Even if not, this kid definitely has extraordinary treasures on him. His good fortune is undoubtedly substantial!"
"Are you suggesting, Lord Muguang?"
"We don't need to rush with this matter. After we lift the seal and release the ancient demon clan powerhouse imprisoned in the Void Spirit Hall, we can let that ancient demon clan expert devour him!" Muguang sneered. "The flesh and blood of such a monstrous genius will surely be something that ancient demon clan expert is very willing to help with!"
"True, when that ancient demon clan expert sees the light of day again, we can use his power to kill everyone who came to the Void Spirit Hall this time and take all their treasures, as well as everything inside the Void Spirit Hall!" Bloodfang's eyes lit up with excitement. "Great idea, Lord Muguang!"
"Alright, I'll treat my injuries here. You guard me!" Muguang commanded.
"Yes, Lord Muguang!" Bloodfang replied respectfully.
Inside the valley.
Su Zhan watched the two people leave without chasing after them.
"Hoo~" He exhaled a breath and looked at his right hand holding the sword.
Hmm?
My tiger grip didn't shatter, and there's no bleeding? I clearly felt a strong force that made my hand hurt just now! Su Zhan was somewhat surprised.
But it's a good thing that there's no bleeding. Muguang's power is incredibly strong, to the point that he had to force himself to activate the dragon meridians to their fullest.
But even so, he couldn't injure him.
I'm too weak. Sighing, Su Zhan felt a sense of crisis.
His current strength was not enough to safely explore the Void Spirit Hall. He must become stronger as soon as possible!
With this thought in mind, he directly stored the massive body of the Ghostly Serpant King into his storage ring and asked the dumbfounded Chu Xuanyi, "I'm still too weak right now; it's dangerous to continue like this. Where is the ten-thousand-year Spiritual Spring you mentioned?"
"The ten-thousand-year Spiritual Spring should be ahead, but friend Su, you can't call yourself weak either," Chu Xuanyi said somewhat speechlessly.
If you're weak, then what am I? A pile of rubble?
Su Zhan shook his head, "If I were a little stronger, I could have killed that Muguang just now!"
"But Daoist friend Su, you're only at the Fish-Dragon Second Transformation realm."
"Even though I'm at the Second Transformation realm, I'm still young! How can a young person lose to an old man?" Su Zhan said earnestly.
Chu Xuanyi's mouth twitched. Is the cultivation world determined by age? Even so, it should be reasonable that the older and more experienced you are, the stronger you become, right? You're just at the Fish-Dragon Second Transformation realm, and you want to contend with a Half-Saint and even kill one?
Daoist friend Su. I've seen talented geniuses who can challenge higher realms with ease. But to say that a Second Transformation realm could kill a Half-Saint Can a human even say such words?
