"Go find... the Xiangxi Corpse Herder..." a weak voice came from the jade pendant fragment.

Tang Yun opened his eyes with difficulty, he saw that in the cracks of the altar, his blood actually formed a new array, perfectly fitting the Gu King's totem.

He struggled to stand up, but found himself powerless.

"Cough, cough..." Tang Yun coughed up a mouthful of blood, his vitality was passing away rapidly.

Just then, a familiar figure appeared in front of him.

That was... his mother!

"Mother..." Tang Yun shouted weakly.

A gentle smile appeared on his mother's face, she touched Tang Yun's cheek gently and said: "Yun'er, live well..."

After speaking, his mother's body turned into dots of starlight and dissipated in the air.

Two lines of clear tears flowed from the corners of Tang Yun's eyes.

He didn't know how long he could live, but he knew he must fulfill his mother's last wish and find the Xiangxi Corpse Herder.

He must also find his father and figure out the truth of all this.

And even more, take revenge on the Gu King and avenge his mother!

Tang Yun struggled to stand up, he staggered out of the deep pit and walked toward the distant mountain peak.

He didn't know how difficult the road ahead was, but he knew he had to keep walking.

Because he had no way back.

On a distant mountain peak, a man in black stood on the edge of a cliff, looking at the direction of Ghost Cry Valley.

A strange smile was on his face.

"Tang Yun... you finally... walked on this road..." the man in black muttered to himself, "Next... let me see... how far you can go..."

The man in black turned and left, his figure disappearing into the vast night.

Tang Yun didn't know that he had fallen into a bigger conspiracy.

What would his fate be? Where would his future go?

"Tang Yun!" Lin Xiyue exclaimed, rushing toward Tang Yun regardless of everything. The jade pendant on her body had shattered, but a strange force surged from her body, wrapping her in a pale blue halo.

This force was the bloodline power passed down from generation to generation in the Lin family.

Lin Xiyue rushed to Tang Yun's side and supported him, "Are you okay?"

Tang Yun opened his eyes with difficulty, seeing Lin Xiyue's anxious face, he smiled weakly, "Can't die..."

"Don't talk!" Lin Xiyue interrupted him, she could feel Tang Yun's vitality passing away rapidly, and that Blood Moon fragment was eroding his body.

Lin Xiyue gritted her teeth, pressed her hand on Tang Yun's chest, and injected her bloodline power into his body.

"What are you doing?" Tang Yun was shocked, wanting to stop her, but found he didn't even have the strength to speak.

Lin Xiyue's bloodline power, carrying a cool breath, flowed slowly into Tang Yun's body, confronting that violent Blood Moon power.

Tang Yun felt his body feel better, but he knew this was only temporary.

"Boom!"

The crack grew larger and larger, eventually collapsing with a bang.

And at the moment the mountain peak collapsed, a more powerful force surged from the depths of the earth, rushing straight into the sky.

Attracted by this force, the Blood Moon fragment actually flew out of Tang Yun's body and hovered in the air.

At the same time, a huge figure rose slowly from the ground.

That was a giant dozens of feet tall, covered with blood-red patterns, emitting a suffocating pressure.

"Ancestor Witch..." A legend flashed in Tang Yun's mind, he looked at the giant in front of him, "Gu King... actually... evolved into an Ancestor Witch..."

Lin Xiyue was also stunned, she had never seen such a terrifying existence.

"Hahaha..." The Gu King's voice was like a roar from hell, "Tang Yun, Lin Xiyue, you all must die!"

The Gu King waved his huge arm and smashed it toward Tang Yun and Lin Xiyue.

"Quick, dodge!" Tang Yun shouted, pushing Lin Xiyue away.

"Boom!"

Tang Yun was swept by the giant palm, flew out, fell heavily to the ground, and vomited blood again.

"Tang Yun!" Lin Xiyue exclaimed, wanting to rush over, but was blocked by the Gu King.

"Your opponent is me!" The Gu King grinned, smashing a fist toward Lin Xiyue.

Lin Xiyue didn't dare to take it hard, and could only dodge.

"Bang!"

The Gu King's fist smashed into the ground, the earth shook violently, and a huge deep pit appeared where Lin Xiyue had just stood.

Lin Xiyue's face was pale, she knew she was no match for the Gu King.

Just then, Tang Yun struggled to stand up, his wounds were healing rapidly, and a powerful force surged from his body.

That was... the power of the Medicine King inheritance!

A glint flashed in Tang Yun's eyes, "Gu King, today... is your death date!"

"Overestimating yourself!" The Gu King sneered and attacked Tang Yun again.

Tang Yun didn't show weakness and met him.

The two started a earth-shattering battle in the collapsing Ghost Cry Valley.

Space cracks appeared constantly, swallowing everything around, including the Gu King's Gu insects.

Tang Yun discovered that his blood had actually formed a new array in the cracks of the altar.

This array perfectly matched the Gu King's totem!

"What is this?" Tang Yun was shocked, he felt his blood was being absorbed by the array.

And as the blood flowed away, he felt his power actually increasing constantly!

"Hahaha..." The Gu King suddenly laughed, "Tang Yun, you are such a fool! Do you think you are absorbing my power? You are wrong! You are... sacrificing yourself!"

Tang Yun's face changed greatly, he finally understood that he had fallen into the Gu King's trap!

This array was not absorbing his power, but... devouring his life!

"Damn it!" Tang Yun roared, wanting to break free from the array, but found he couldn't move.

His blood was flowing into the array continuously.

And the Gu King stood in the center of the array, greedily absorbing Tang Yun's vitality.

"Tang Yun!" Lin Xiyue shouted anxiously, wanting to rush over to save Tang Yun, but was blocked by the Gu King again.

"Don't get in the way!" The Gu King waved his hand impatiently, and a powerful force blew Lin Xiyue away.

"Puff!"

Lin Xiyue vomited blood, fell to the ground, and lost consciousness.

Tang Yun watched Lin Xiyue fall, his heart full of despair.

"Hahaha..." The Gu King laughed triumphantly, "Tang Yun, everything of yours will belong to me!"

Just then, a mutation occurred!

In the altar crack, Tang Yun's blood suddenly stopped flowing.

An ancient voice came from the array, "I am the Medicine King, today... I will help you!"

A golden light shot out from the array, shrouding Tang Yun inside.

Tang Yun felt his body full of power, and the wounds on his body were also healing rapidly.

"This... what is this?"
