Chapter 1274: Werewolf Blood Sacrifice

Just as Ye Liuyun was killing with vigor, he suddenly found that the blood flowing from the slain werewolves was being absorbed by the ground.

"The ground is strange!" Ye Liuyun warned Mo Tianheng.

Mo Tianheng explained to Ye Liuyun: "This is a form of blood sacrifice. It can only use werewolf blood. When enough werewolves have died and enough blood has accumulated, the blood‑sacrifice ceremony will be triggered!"

"Sacrifice what? How cruel!" Ye Liuyun couldn't help asking.

He wondered silently whether these traps were set by Mo Tianheng in a previous life. If so, Mo Tianheng was indeed ruthless!

"Only enough blood can awaken Xuemo! He should appear soon; you should recall your Monster Beasts, they're no match!" Mo Tianheng reminded Ye Liuyun.

Ye Liuyun immediately summoned Lei Ming, Long Nv, and those Evil Dragons back, withdrawing the Space World.

The few remaining werewolves could be dealt with by him and Mo Tianheng.

When the last werewolf fell, the ground began to tremble.

The earth bulged a large lump, as if something was about to drill up from below.

And the aura emanating from below was at least of a late‑stage Celestial Sovereign realm.

Mo Tianheng took the opportunity to explain to Ye Liuyun: "Xuemo is a branch of the Demon Race that feeds on human and beast blood; they are extremely scarce. They have no emotions, no regard for race—anything with blood is food to them, and they may even consume their own kind."

"We need Xuemo's Crystal Core to break through the next barrier. The Xuemo below should be at least at the Ninth Celestial Sovereign level! But it's easy to deal with; we can use Spiritual Soul Attack on it, its Soul is very weak, almost no sentience!"

Ye Liuyun, hearing this, was no longer worried and instead asked Mo Tianheng: "Were all these traps set by you earlier?"

"Probably, yes! If we don't add some difficulty, people will steal all the resources!" Mo Tianheng replied.

Then, fearing Ye Liuyun might misunderstand, he quickly added: "I don't know the exact details either. But I hope you understand, that was an arrangement made by my past self, not the present me!"

He was also worried Ye Liuyun would confuse him with his past self.

In fact, being reborn, his form had undergone great changes.

Ye Liuyun nodded, indicating his understanding.

The main reason was that he preferred to trust the Mo Tianheng before him.

"Roar…"

A long roar echoed as a blood‑colored monster burst from the ground, resonating through the sky.

The Xuemo's body was drenched in blood, constantly flowing down.

The strangest thing was that it had no eyes. On its round, insect‑like head sprouted a pair of antennae.

As soon as its head emerged from the ground, the antennae began scanning in all directions.

"Its Sea of Consciousness lies beneath the antennae—attack!"

After pointing out the target to Ye Liuyun, Mo Tianheng first released his own Soul and launched an attack.

Ye Liuyun also released a Soul and rushed into Xuemo's Sea of Consciousness.

Inside Xuemo's Sea of Consciousness was a sea of blood, within which lay a Xuemo‑shaped Soul, resembling a huge caterpillar.

Without a word, Mo Tianheng and Ye Liuyun attacked that Xuemo Soul.

Especially Ye Liuyun's Soul attack, which released Nether Ghost Fire, proved especially effective against Xuemo's Soul.

The Xuemo Soul was instantly ignited and rapidly consumed. Even when it plunged into the sea of blood, it could not extinguish the Nether Ghost Fire.

"Your Divine Soul Power is actually stronger than mine!" Mo Tianheng relaxed at that moment.

He realized Ye Liuyun's Soul was a notch larger than his own, and equally solid.

To think, he only achieved this through the cultivation method of his past life's Divine Rank.

Whereas, as far as he knew, Ye Liuyun's cultivation was entirely self‑trained.

"Hmm, I also practice a rather special technique!" Ye Liuyun said without further explanation.

Their techniques should belong to the same grade, only the cultivation paths differ.

And Ye Liuyun had just taken a pill that boosts Soul power, so of course he was a bit stronger than Mo Tianheng.

Mo Tianheng didn't probe further. After confirming that Xuemo's Soul was completely eradicated, he had Ye Liuyun set fire to incinerate Xuemo's Sea of Consciousness.

Then their Souls each returned to their own bodies.

Mo Tianheng approached the Xuemo's body and extracted its core pill.

The Xuemo's corpse withered rapidly, shrinking into a small lump that truly resembled a curled insect.

Then Mo Tianheng drew six drops of essence blood from the Xuemo's heart.

"Xuemo's essence blood can enhance bloodline power. It takes a hundred years to refine one drop. This Xuemo is over six hundred years old!"

While explaining to Ye Liuyun, Mo Tianheng gave him four drops. He kept the remaining two, fearing Ye Liuyun might worry about side effects, and drank them on the spot.

Ye Liuyun also took one drop; the remaining three he gave to his clone, Lei Ming, and Long Nv—one each.

Mo Tianheng didn't mind the distribution and immediately led Ye Liuyun onward.

"What are the traps ahead? What resources are here? Have you recalled everything?" Ye Liuyun wanted to have a clear picture first.

"The upcoming traps require no combat, but watch out for dangers on the road. After all, monsters roam here. As for resources, I don't know yet."

Mo Tianheng said honestly.

Ye Liuyun stopped asking and silently followed him.

On the way, they indeed encountered some blocking monsters.

Most were Demon Beasts. Mo Tianheng didn't need their core pills, so he gave them to Ye Liuyun.

Ye Liuyun gave them to his clone to cultivate together with Lei Ming.

"The Demon God core pill I gave you last time, did you give it to that Thunder Dragon Beast?" Mo Tianheng asked while walking.

"Yes!" Ye Liuyun didn't expect Mo Tianheng could sense that.

"If you used it all yourself, your strength would probably increase much faster, right?" Mo Tianheng continued.

"Hmm!" Ye Liuyun replied.

Suddenly he realized he wasn't selfish at all!

If he were truly selfish, he shouldn't be sharing resources with the people around him! Moreover, he thinks that if danger arises, he would definitely protect the people near him and help them escape, and would never run away himself first.

So, from this point of view, Mohu calling him selfish is somewhat one‑sided.

At the same time, he also realizes that Mohu's killing and heart‑punishing are formidable.

The questions Mohu asked him keep popping up in his mind constantly.

"Why do I keep recalling what Mohu said to me?"

Ye Liuyun finds this situation abnormal and immediately asks Mo Tianheng.
