Chapter 175: A Once-in-a-Millennium Occurrence

"The auspicious hour has arrived!"

"Worship the Blood God!"

Nanhuang, where the headquarters of the Blood God Sect is located.

Over a thousand Blood God Sect Cultivators, having bathed in blood, raised their specially crafted incense sticks together and bowed in salute toward the direction of the Blood God mural deep within the sect's main hall.

As they finished performing the grand sacrificial rites.

The scent of incense permeated the entire gloomy hall, and at the same time, the mural emitted a faint red light.

After a few breaths, accompanied by a flash of red light!

A figure draped in black robes and shrouded in a mass of black mist, whose specific appearance could not be discerned even by Cultivators, the contemporary Sect Leader of the Blood God Sect.

Appeared in mid-air, then descended lightly onto the main seat, sweeping a pair of blood-colored eyes across the people in the sect.

"I have summoned you all here on short notice today; I imagine some of you should already know why."

"Just a short while ago, the Blood God Origin underwent multiple unusual fluctuations!"

"Someone summoned the Blood God and passed the Blood God's trial, receiving His blessing."

"This is a heaven-defying talent, rarely seen in our Blood God Sect in a hundred years!"

"We must find him! Bring him back to the main altar!"

After the Sect Leader took his seat, he spoke to inform those below of the situation.

Many Cultivators let out a gasp upon hearing this.

Those who could enter the main altar naturally had the experience of summoning the Blood God to receive a gift.

They knew very well what it meant for the Blood God to have unusual fluctuations.

In the history of the Blood God Sect, any Cultivator capable of causing fluctuations in the Blood God Origin was a famous senior within the sect!

As long as they did not die prematurely, they would at least become an Elder in the sect!

And judging by the multiple fluctuations.

As long as this person's age was not too great, could this not be the candidate for the next generation's Sect Leader?

They looked at one another, wanting to know which lineage had produced such a heaven-defying talent!

For the Blood God Sect, which had not been doing well recently, this could be called a shot in the arm!

However, after looking around for a few seconds.

These Cultivators suddenly realized that the source of this unusual fluctuation might not be from any of their lineages?

"Could it be a heaven-defying talent from another sect?"

"It's possible; I just don't know which brother within the sect was killed, leaving behind his inheritance."

"Facing the Blood God directly, one must be planted with a Blood Eye Mark!"

"This time, our sect will again add an outsider heaven-defying talent!"

"Quiet!"

The Sect Leader waved his hand, and immediately, countless blood-colored tentacles emerged from the black mist on his body:

"Since it is not from any of your lineages, then it is an outsider. Follow me to sacrifice to the Blood God... and find him immediately!"

After the Sect Leader finished speaking, a chorus of agreement immediately rose in the hall.

Then, a complex blood-colored Array appeared on the floor beneath these people's feet.

Before long, the Essence Spirit and Qi of these people were concentrated in front of the Sect Leader's eyes.

As the Sect Leader summoned the Blood God Avatar to possess his own body.

The Sect Leader saw, amidst a sea of mist.

Vaguely, a red-haired man with his eyes closed appeared.

That man looked extremely heroic and extraordinary.

His temperament was worlds apart from the disciples of the Blood God Sect!

This made the Sect Leader very tempted; seducing such a righteous and chivalrous heaven-defying talent to fall into the Divine Dao... was full of a sense of accomplishment!

Only!

When the Sect Leader wanted to peer into the man's memories using the power of the Blood God Incarnation.

He found himself as if crashing into an indestructible rock.

Even with the support of so many disciples in the sect.

It was difficult to advance even an inch!

Instead, he saw the blood-colored tentacles at the center of the red-haired man's brow suddenly snap.

Causing the gift bestowed by the Blood God to increase by another layer!

Looking closely, the Sect Leader was shocked to discover that almost all the tentacles on this person had snapped!

He had clearly passed all of the Blood God's trials!

"Incredible, just how heaven-defying is this person's aptitude, and how powerful is his will!"

"To actually... actually accept all of the Blood God's gifts in the very first summoning ritual!"

Boom!

At this very instant, as the last tentacle snapped, the Blood God Ritual began to collapse.

This Sect Leader also had to let out a groan as his consciousness retreated.

The moment he realized he had returned to his own body.

This Sect Leader of the Blood God Sect.

Actually felt a trace of jealousy toward that red-haired man.

He, a Sect Leader, the person closest to the Blood God.

The divine gift received... was not as much as that red-haired man's!

Why would such a heaven-defying talent appear, and an outsider at that!

This Sect Leader was very angry, and also very unwilling to accept this.

He had already made up his mind to find that red-haired man, bring him here, refine him into an incense-offering boy, and then eat him!

Such talent already made him, the Sect Leader, feel that his position was unstable.

If... he didn't have many years left to live, perhaps he would consider focusing on cultivating this heaven-defying talent.

But as it stood, he was in his prime and had at least one or two hundred years left to live.

The talent the other party displayed made him unable to eat or sleep in peace.

A heaven-defying talent encountered once in a millennium—he could not grasp it!

"All disciples, hear my order!"

"From today on, my Blood God Sect headquarters shall relocate to the Central Region to search for that peerless heaven-defying talent!"

"This person is the Son of the Blood God; finding him will surely cause our Divine Sect to flourish!"

"Regardless of status, those who provide clues shall be rewarded with a Spirit Tool and granted a Blood Pill!"

"Understood!"

Hearing this, the crowd knelt down one after another to acknowledge the order.

It was just that some Elders still had some guesses in their hearts based on the Sect Leader's previous subtle loss of composure.

But all of this was merely speculation; only by finding the person who caused the Blood God Origin to constantly fluctuate would one understand just how monstrous the other party truly was!

Jiuye Mountain Market.

After Su Ping summoned the Blood God through Fire Knight Alwin, passed the other party's test by relying on his Indomitable Will, and received the other party's divine gift.

He hurriedly ran back to the Pot Heaven and, utilizing the remaining time of the Fire Knight, carefully stored the memory clusters of the Blood God Divine Art—which were like Immortal scripts, difficult to replicate, and could only be transferred—into over a hundred Inheritance Jade Slips.

This was so he could slowly study their mysteries when he had time later.

Afterwards, feeling that he had seemingly made a huge profit, Su Ping hurriedly left the spot once the ritual ended and returned to Nine Leaves Mountain.

Su Ping, having resumed his identity as Baihe Zhenren, began his days of normal cultivation and researching the various Secret Techniques of the Blood God Sect as well as those memories.

Before he knew it, a week had passed.

During this week, Su Ping relied on using the Memory Scepter to summon the Memory Illusion of Fire Knight Alwin, constantly coming into contact with those Inheritance Jade Slips that housed the memories of the Blood God Divine Art, and slowly understood quite a few Secret Techniques at the same time.

He also learned through the life records of the Sect Leaders or Elders in these memory inheritances, which were almost detailed down to the smallest matter.

He also learned about many of the histories and secrets of Nanhuang.

Su Ping even suspected that he was the only one who could learn certain secrets by relying on this method.

Because through the memory of what should be an Elder of this generation.

Su Ping had already realized that the level of the test passed by the Fire Knight perhaps far exceeded that of the current generation's Sect Leader.

The Blood God Divine Art memory inheritance he received was far greater than that of this generation's Sect Leader.

The only thing lacking was the foundation accumulated over time.

However, the increase in the foundation of the Blood God path, just like the arts of the Side-Door Path, leaned towards rapid success!

As long as Su Ping was well-prepared.

Accumulating this foundation would not be difficult.

After all, he had an entire Water Blue Star as his reserve force!
