Chapter 212: Indeed Not Bad! (Two-in-one, please subscribe)

Jiuye Mountain Market.

Without the hundreds of thousands of mortals, the market appeared much more spacious.

The vast expanse of buildings at the foot of the mountain remained uninhabited, becoming a paradise for snakes, insects, rats, and ants.

Furthermore, plants such as vines with tenacious vitality, having avoided the previous multiple disasters with the help of the Jiuye Mountain Market Array, quickly spread over and intertwined among the houses.

Only on the mountainside where Spirit Fields had been cleared could human figures be seen.

Yet, thanks to the sparse population, the Loose Cultivators who came to farm could all be allocated a house with a private courtyard.

The market no longer held the bustling prosperity of years past.

The number of outside Cultivators coming to the market each day did not exceed the count of two hands.

And most were small squads of Cultivators from other sects, primarily coming to borrow a place to rest and recuperate.

Su Ping had Hall Master Dongfang post the materials he needed outside Wanbao Pavilion.

The Great Elder, with a dark expression, extended his sword hilt and knocked his disappointing disciple on the head.

However, Su Ping saw within it the Secret Treasure of the Divine Sect mastered by the Great Elder—the Blood God Whip.

"But the success rate of this Blood God Secret Technique for possession is not high, and it has many side effects; this fellow must have been pushed to the absolute limit."

Xiao Mu Zhenren sighed at this, while also feeling quite puzzled as to why these monsters of the Incense Divine Path had suddenly come to the Central Region to join in the chaos.

Xiao Mu Zhenren did not know much about this, only that a High Monk from the Great Golden Light Temple had suddenly appeared above the Immortal Palace.

It is said that that battle was also fought until the sky turned dark and the earth sank three feet.

I am afraid no Cultivator outside the Blood God Sect understands the many secrets of the other party better than I do.

"The other party should only have one person, but do not be careless!"

"Such a firm consciousness."

"You have an affinity with our sect!"

But their expressions changed drastically very quickly.

"Do not recall the appearance of that monk!"

A twenty percent profit is enough for a Cultivator who sees the news to earn this extra income on the side.

The terrifying Blood God they relied on for their rapid mastery of formidable combat power was also briefly sealed in a Secret Realm by the High Monk using great Dharma Power.

Otherwise, even the Divine Sense released by a Golden Core Great Ability would be unable to detect any anomalies within.

Then the remaining Divine Soul merged into the Fire Knight.

This also made the Great Elder's vision go black, and he nearly fainted.

However, on the Blood God Sect's side, multiple Elders had their Divine Souls destroyed, and five or six Hall Masters were captured alive.

It could be considered a moment that made the younger generation realize once again the massive chasm between Immortal Sect powerhouses and ordinary forces.

Mutual exchange with the outside world was necessary, so the Artifact Heart Sect dispatched four Giant Immortal Boats.

Glanced at it.

They didn't even block the aftermath of the opponent's ultimate move, causing the flames to directly destroy the Array and the structure of the dilapidated houses.

"Could it be that disciples from other halls saw the traces we left and found us?"

If not for the Blood God Sect's profound foundation in the Incense Divine Path.

"You being able to find this place is proof... My time is running out, but the Secret Treasure and foundation of the Divine Sect I hold cannot be lost just like this."

Speaking of this, the Great Elder's gaze was somewhat confused.

A nearby city ruin was even razed to the ground.

This Blood God Sect Great Elder's eyes revealed an expression of disbelief.

These five Personal Disciples all felt the Buddha Light within their bodies suppressed to the point where it could barely be felt.

Then, coordinating with the Purple Light Foxes to sacrifice their remaining time to summon Heavenly Thunder.

First were the Storage Bags of those Personal Disciples.

After the Immortal Palace suppressed the earth veins with a Seal, in order to prevent accidents.

That Great Elder, who had just condensed a Secret Technique and prepared to flee, widened his eyes abruptly.

The miserable state of these Personal Disciples also made Su Ping firm in his intention to beat a drowning dog.

He even obtained a somewhat damaged Spirit Tool.

It exploded, causing the red light of the small flag to dissipate.

It directly exposed him, this Great Elder of the Blood God Sect!

If not now, when?

Utilizing this backdoor, plus the fact that Su Ping also knew the Blood God Secret Technique, he was a brother within the sect recognized by the Spirit Tool.

"Blood God above, it seems I, this old man, will not be able to pass this trial."

Then the Artifact Heart Sect dispatched three Golden Core Elders holding three Spirit Treasures to go and assist.

When taken out, it frantically devoured the Spirit Qi in the Pot Heaven, as if it had been hungry for a long time.

"Such a powerful Warding Evil Artifact; this person came prepared!"

Discovered that the vengeful spirits were ineffective.

Vaguely, it actually made them think of that irresistible Buddha Light again!

Sure enough, a phantom of a bounty list appeared there.

Although he had lost the Blood God's blessing and his combat power was greatly diminished.

In that previous battle, they lost very miserably.

The golden characters in the phantom clearly stated.

"If I can survive this time, I will never come to this Central Region again in my life!"

However, they felt that five against one was still a surprise attack when the opponent was unprepared!

Even this could be lost!

Fire Knight Alwin raised his greatsword, and his first move was a finishing move to show respect.

"Something is wrong, the opponent is coming straight here!"

Likewise, there were no Spirit Stones, pills for recovering Dharma Power, or Healing Pills.

Thus, he spoke:

"Truly, the affairs of the world are unpredictable!"

The ruins of Original Jinjian City.

They themselves did not know how much longer they could hold out!

If the Sect Leader and the Elders had not risked their lives to perform the Secret Technique... I fear none of these people would have been able to escape.

Could it be that they really considered themselves to be top-tier Demonic Path practitioners in escape techniques, thinking they could manage it themselves?

His Divine Soul suddenly left his body and charged toward Fire Knight Alwin.

At the first glance of the opponent, the Elder gave a definitive reply.

"Why don't you strike quickly and take down the opponent with the force of thunder!"

Do you not know that because of the descent of the Heavenly Demon, all the major Immortal Sects in the Central Region are extremely sensitive right now?

Yet he discovered that this Storage Spirit Tool was actually a long-inherited Spirit Tool of the Blood God Sect.

The Great Elder of the Blood God Sect was hiding here with several Personal Disciples, his face pale, waiting for rescue.

This was a power of suppression from a higher level!

Added to that, the sky was full of pursuers, and this region was a place with thin Spirit Qi, making even meditation and gathering Qi extremely difficult.

But Su Ping, who had come into contact with so much inherited knowledge, knew more clearly what the opponent was about to do.

Instead, he saw at least ten Purple-Light Fox Spirit Beasts with Foundation Establishment auras pop up beside the fire-red knight.

He never expected that, as a Golden Core preparing to entrust his legacy, a Foundation Establishment cultivator would actually be willing to let go of such a great opportunity!

Plus, the pills had long been eaten... if other disciples with pills and Talismans did not arrive to rendezvous within a period of time.

Now that these Blood God Sect evildoers have been scattered, it is the time for righteous Cultivators to press their advantage and pursue!

Therefore, anyone who can provide clues or personally kill the evildoers will be heavily rewarded!

"I knew this guy had ill intentions; even at the last moment, he was still thinking of using a Secret Technique to perform possession."

Afterwards, Su Ping organized the items he could sell and left the Jiuye Mountain Market to head toward the Immortal Boat of the Artifact Heart Sect.

The Great Elder's lips moved, but he recognized that Fire Knight Alwin was the Holy Son designated by the Blood God.

Su Ping obtained quite a few Inheritance Jade Slips and Dharma Artifacts with exhausted Dharma Power from these Storage Bags.

Perhaps he had received the relevant inherited memories of a certain Sect Leader?

"Cough, cough, I never thought that after searching for so long and paying such a high price, we still wouldn't find you."

At the same time, Su Ping was able to see that this Secret Treasure had multiple hidden injuries.

Clearly, they had spent everything before; it was miserable enough.

Furthermore, judging from the partial inherited memories obtained from the Blood God, this Blood God Sect still had several Spirit Treasures refined by successive Sect Leaders gathering the strength of the entire sect, specifically used to coordinate with the Blood God Secret Technique.

"This... how is this possible!"

Su Ping saw the sky covered by Golden Light.

Even the High Monk of the Great Golden Light Temple suffered internal injuries because of this and had to give up the pursuit to go back and recuperate.

This Great Elder's tone was desolate, but his heart was already burning with renewed hope.

Recently, Blood God Sect evildoers have infiltrated the nearby region.

"He has discovered us!"

Su Ping was still very interested in the inherited knowledge of the Blood God Sect.

As Personal Disciples of the Elder, each of them had at least Foundation Establishment cultivation.

Another Personal Disciple muttered this, unable to stop his body from trembling, while Fo light faintly emerged from his eyes.

Spirit Stones, pills, Talismans... the Storage Bags of these Personal Disciples had none of these.

The Great Elder panted and stopped trying to escape, simply sitting cross-legged like a dying old man who had let go of everything.

What appeared in their line of sight was not any disciple of the Blood God Sect.

Fortunately, a High Monk of the Great Golden Light Temple discovered the traces of the evildoers, and after multiple fierce battles, the powerful evildoers were either dead or injured.

There was a backdoor set up by the Sect Leader.

"Before I die, to have you appear before me..."

"Demonic Path evildoers, they must be executed!"

They all turned pale with shock at the same time.

Su Ping took out the Storage Spirit Tool.

"You..."

Unlike those Cultivators who were just stumbling around blindly.

A Personal Disciple showed joy.

But there were pros and cons; to avoid being discovered, they themselves could not release their Divine Sense to scout, lest they reveal a flaw.

Yet, the Blood God was sealed, and all their various Secret Techniques for prolonging life and healing were ineffective.

Su Ping pretended to be moved by the reward and went to the communication Copper Mirror on the Immortal Boat, spending Spirit Stones to ask Xiao Mu Zhenren for information.

These Blood God Sect Cultivators had no choice but to stay here.

It was already difficult to enter or leave the Immortal Palace if one was not a trusted aide.

Su Ping headed to one of the Immortal Boats and only then purchased some usable materials.

He also understood how the other party had found him.

Suddenly, the Great Elder's ears twitched slightly, as he heard an outsider approaching.

Just by gazing at it, one could see this whip suddenly pause and transmit its memory to Su Ping.

That small flag radiated red light and was about to release some kind of sinister presence.

It exceeded the limits of his imagination.

"Damn it, I, a dignified Great Elder of the Divine Sect, a Golden Core powerhouse... to actually be forced into such a pathetic state by a mere Foundation Establishment!"

If the Golden Core is already in such a miserable state, the other Foundation Establishment ones are likely not faring well either.

It could be considered a professional match.

A Personal Disciple's expression turned joyful:

"The other party shouldn't know our specific situation, otherwise they should have fled immediately by now!"

Boom!

They had just flown out of the dilapidated house and revealed their figures.

"If you want to die, go out; don't annoy me here!"

Fire Knight Alwin retreated a few steps, then discovered that dozens of red vengeful spirits had flown out from the red light produced by the explosion and struck his body.

The next second.

Everyone was injured, the Elder even more so with severe internal injuries, and there were strands of Fo light inside their bodies that were difficult to repel, making it impossible to heal through their own constitution.

Suspected of potentially endangering the Earth Vein Seal, they are the mortal enemies of all righteous Cultivators!

This Great Elder was quite decisive; he immediately stopped the transfer Secret Technique and instead spat out a mouthful of tongue-tip blood to activate a small flag floating in mid-air.

He was just planning to continue pondering further.

Su Ping's mouth twitched as he looked at this Blood God Whip.

Is this still the Cultivation World he knows!

There was no other way.

It wasn't that he intended to moonlight as a bounty hunter in the Cultivation World.

"You..."

He discovered that those few Personal Disciples of his had all fallen to the ground in the blink of an eye.

At the same time, the Purple Light Foxes were simultaneously disappearing while releasing ten bolts of Heavenly Thunder that smashed over.

And the lightning light erupting from these Purple Light Foxes.

Unless one knew in advance.

He intended to find an excuse to make the other party lower their guard.

Taking these things to Water Blue Star to purify them would be just right for when he uses the Blood God Secret Technique.

Su Ping could guess what the other party was going to say next.

Su Ping also thought the same.

After rushing about for two hours, his eyes finally lit up, and he saw traces left by the Blood God Sect at a Temple where only one wall remained.

Yet the more he looked, the more astonished and uncertain he became.

What does it have to do with a common Foundation Establishment Cultivator like himself?

Su Ping knew he still had some advantages in searching for the remnants of the Blood God Sect.

It was only after being blasted into tatters that he was able to pass through.

And he saw that amidst the sky full of Fo shadows appearing under the Golden Light, under the sound of Fo, they transformed into a thousand-meter-tall Ashura Dharma Image attacking.

Does being suspected of having a connection to an Evil Spirit mean one will be beaten to death?

After leaving the Immortal Boat, Su Ping found a city ruin and descended.

Knowing that there was only a fight left, this Great Elder, in the instant before the Heavenly Thunder hit him.

And knowing that what the Elder said was not false, they shot out one after another and rushed toward the Fire Knight.

Their location had a Hidden Array personally set up by the Great Elder, and also a special Spirit Treasure providing Dharma Power.

Su Ping was startled at first, wondering if he was so unlucky that he encountered an attack as soon as he came out?

He then discovered that the subsequent bell sounds were not urgent, but distant and slow, appearing more like an important announcement.

Under Su Ping's control, Fire Knight Alwin did not give the other party a chance to continue speaking, and the great sword swung out sword light once again.

"It seems the clues I provided worked."

Only after returning to the Pot Heaven did Su Ping feel relieved that his tracks would not be discovered by others, and he opened it to check.

If there was a chance to obtain those Spirit Treasures or Secret Techniques, it would undoubtedly be of great help to his cross-realm combat.

But after staring at the Fire Knight with his eyes.

He had them put on black cloaks to cover their figures and carry Storage Bags with basic supplies, only then letting them head in different directions to search for traces of the Blood God Sect.

Su Ping heard the bell ring on the Immortal Boat.

"This will cause the Fo light in your body to erupt."

Boom!

"Fire Phoenix Rages Across the Plains!"

These vengeful spirits had just touched the space three inches outside the Fire Knight's body when they were immediately shattered by strands of abruptly appearing lightning.

Following Fire Knight Alwin carrying the great sword as he appeared in the plaza, he continued to approach the dilapidated house.

A portion of his memory was captured by the Fire Knight, becoming Su Ping's spiritual nourishment.

This time, Su Ping did not go to notify the High Monk, choosing instead to let the Memory Illusion take action itself.

With just one move, he was sent flying back, and then the battle ended in a blackness before his eyes.

In a half-collapsed, dangerous house beside the center of a plaza where most of it had snapped off, leaving only a sword tip behind.

The Great Elder paused after saying this, then sighed and said:

"The Fo Dharma of that High Monk from the Great Golden Light Temple is indeed profound, but to say he could rival the Blood God is not something he could do with his own strength alone!"

Su Ping had Fire Knight Alwin clear the battlefield, especially the Great Elder's Storage Spirit Tool on the ground and several items that looked like special treasures.

Su Ping took out the Blood God Whip.

Then, Su Ping saw this Blood God Whip fly out to engage the Ashura Faxiang.

"This monster hasn't been marked by the Blood God at all!"

In the memory.

A red light flew abruptly from the dangerous house and immediately struck the great sword that the Fire Knight was holding tightly with both hands to protect his front, emitting a sonic boom as loud as a detonating bomb.

They were set up in four fixed locations to receive Cultivators from all sides, which could be considered the Artifact Heart Sect's Market in the sky.

But he discovered the tenacity of the consciousness of this Foundation Establishment Cultivator before him.

The Great Elder added a sentence, while simultaneously gripping the sword hilt and waving his hand to release a circle of red light onto his Personal Disciples.

Instead, it was a sword cultivator wearing armor, with long fiery red hair and a mysterious charm.

Several wounds on his body also emitted golden Fo light, and a faint smell of burning came from them.

"Cough, cough, cough!"

He had originally thought that he would have to take the Golden Core's Storage Spirit Tool to Water Blue Star before he could open it.

"Attention!"

A Personal Disciple with a goatee coughed up blood and whispered:

"That old monk is too terrifying; I feel that even if the Blood God could fully manifest, he wouldn't be able to beat that old monk..."

The price was based on the market rate, with an extra twenty percent added.

Only after diving underground did Su Ping summon the two Memory Illusions, Exorcist Mage Yunkong and Fire Knight Alwin.

"His Great Sealing Technique also borrowed a power somewhat similar to the Blood God."

Su Ping felt a stir in his heart when he saw this bounty.

"There is the sound of a Cultivator landing!"

The Great Elder's heart jumped, but he whispered:

"However, the opponent is only at the Foundation Establishment Early Stage; although we are injured, there are six of us!"

The Personal Disciples whispered, all holding their breath and focusing their minds.

This Divine Soul crashed into the Evil-Warding Blessing.

"Foundation Establishment Early Stage?"

Yet even if they escaped, they had reached the end of their rope.

They even heard auditory hallucinations of "Amitabha" in their ears.

After packing everything up and taking it away.

Boom!

After realizing this desperate fact, the Great Elder's Divine Soul dissipated in despair.

After all, it was Fire Knight Alwin who triggered the Blood God's anomaly and obtained a large amount of the Blood God's inherited knowledge.

Instead, he focused his gaze on the fact that the Blood God Sect evildoers were either dead or injured.

Su Ping specifically searched for ruins like villages and towns.

Su Ping followed the crowd out of the cabin to the deck and looked curiously at the top of the Immortal Boat.

"It's a pity this bounty didn't exist back then."

Heavenly Thunder fell once again.

It took Su Ping only a few minutes to open this pendant-shaped Storage Spirit Tool and see the inventory belonging to that Great Elder inside.

It caused the remaining Blood God Sect disciples to lose at least seventy percent of their strength!

It can be said that the current Blood God Sect is perhaps at its weakest since its founding.

This is a nine-section whip, seven or eight meters long, and blood-red all over.

"What if the opponent recovers, escapes, and calls for reinforcements? How many of us will be able to escape successfully next time!"

To think that this Secret Treasure, which is almost like a Spirit Treasure to the Blood God Sect, was finished just after appearing.

The might of a top expert from an Immortal Sect is truly terrifying!

However, looking at it this way, being able to rely on the Blood God to make the opponent suffer injuries...

The Blood God Secret Technique is indeed not bad!
