Chapter 3448: Blood‑Thirsty Magic Crystal

Ye Liuyun walked while using his Divine Sense to probe Chen Yueying's movements, saw that she was honestly staying within the Formation, and completely relaxed.

The Blood Fox Ancestor's secluded spot was not far from here.

Ye Liuyun crossed two mountains before spotting a stark cliff wall, which bore a conspicuous opening.

Carving an opening in such a glaring spot immediately shows that a powerful cultivator with strength did it, unafraid of being discovered; even a Martial Cultivator without strength would not dare to investigate.

"This can indeed filter out Martial Cultivators with weak Bloodline Power."

Ye Liuyun thought it over and dared not rush into the Cave, lest the Blood Fox approach suddenly and siphon all the Bloodline Power.

At that moment, the Sealing Demon Tablet transmitted a signal, eager to act, apparently having sensed the aura of the Magic Crystal.

"Don't be hasty; the Cave is too narrow, you can't unleash your abilities inside and may get trapped. Wait while I draw it out!"

Ye Liuyun recalled this, took a Blood Fox's head from the Space World, flung it toward the opening from afar, then hid at the foot of the mountain, waiting for the Blood Fox Ancestor to emerge.

"Ah! Who dares to kill my offspring!"

He did not hear a beast's roar, but an aged, hoarse scream echoed.

Immediately, Ye Liuyun felt his Divine Sense locked and a massive realm pressure bearing down on him. Then he saw an elderly man with white beard, clad in a blood‑red robe, burst out of the Cave.

"Human? I will drain all your vital blood to avenge my descendants!" the old man roared, brandishing a black Crystal Stone in his hand.

At that moment, the Sealing Demon Tablet, without waiting for Ye Liuyun's summons, surged forward itself, charging straight at the black Crystal Stone, ignoring Ye Liuyun.

The Blood Fox Ancestor also startled; the Magic Crystal, having sensed the Tablet's power, flew straight from his hand and vanished into the distance.

Shaken, the Blood Fox Ancestor could no longer attend to Ye Liuyun. The Magic Crystal was his treasured cultivation artifact and could not be discarded, so he waved his hand to strike the Tablet.

The Tablet was knocked away by his palm, yet it curved and pursued the Magic Crystal, sustaining no real damage.

"What is this?" the Blood Fox Ancestor asked, puzzled.

Suddenly, he felt locked by a terrifying force, akin to a strong one imposing pressure on a weak one, leaving the weak utterly unable to resist.

Now the Blood Fox Ancestor was the same, wanting to see what had locked him, yet he could not move his body nor emit Divine Sense, as if standing still awaiting death.

"This power exceeds the Taixu realm? Could there be another strong one I missed?" he wondered, as Ye Liuyun's arrow had already been released.

The Godslaying Bow can elevate an archer's power by a major realm, so Ye Liuyun's arrow completely surpassed Taixu‑level strength. Not only could the Blood Fox Ancestor not withstand it; every living creature in the entire mountain range felt the terrifying pressure.

Then, with a booming crack, the Blood Fox Ancestor was struck by the Godslaying Bow's arrow, erasing both his head and the Soul in his Sea of Consciousness; only his body fell away.

"This power even scares me! I'll use it sparingly from now on!" Ye Liuyun hurriedly sheathed the Godslaying Bow, fearing it might attract formidable beings.

He also resolved that even when using Black and White Light, he would not easily reveal the Godslaying Bow.

That arrow he just fired was actually felt by Martial Cultivators across half a Xingqiu, though no one could imagine it originated here and could affect such a vast area.

Chen Yueying, at this moment, was tense within the Formation, worrying for Ye Liuyun. She thought the massive disturbance was caused by the Blood Fox Ancestor using the Magic Crystal.

But the terrifying pressure soon vanished, and she could only guess wildly in her mind, anxiously waiting.

Ye

Liuyun, after sheathing the Godslaying Bow, went to retrieve the Blood Fox Ancestor's Physical Body.

It was then that he discovered a highly condensed drop of vital blood in the Blood Fox Ancestor's heart.

He immediately summoned Yuehong and Chi Lian; they both said it was a relatively pure Bloodline Power, not something forged overnight.

Ye Liuyun examined the drop repeatedly with his Golden Pupil and Divine Sense, found no issue, then stored it, planning to refine it later. The drop's ferocious Monster Beast aura was strong, requiring time to slowly refine and purge the aura.

As for the Blood Fox's Physical Body and Nascent Core, they were given to the Monster Beasts as cultivation resources.

The Blood Fox Ancestor's Storage Ring also contained some Primordial Power, high‑grade Crystal Stones, and various body‑refining herbs, presumably his own cultivation supplies, now all belonging to Ye Liuyun.

The Sealing Demon Tablet didn't chase far before catching the Magic Crystal, smashing it into the ground and suppressing it, while absorbing its power.

Ye Liuyun pursued, but did not disturb the Tablet, allowing it to completely absorb the Magic Crystal so it could not harm anyone later.

The Magic Crystal had already gained rudimentary consciousness; if it further developed and turned monstrous, even the Tablet would find it hard to deal with.

The Magic Crystal erupted its full power several times, trying to lift the Tablet, but its autonomous awareness was too weak to wield power, and each time it was suppressed by the Tablet.

This time the Tablet did not grow huge; it was only human‑sized, just right for suppressing the Magic Crystal.

"I am willing to acknowledge you as master; let me take this tablet away!" the Magic Crystal suddenly communicated with Ye Liuyun via Divine Sense: "I can siphon the Bloodline Power of strong beings for you, and also help you condense super‑divine‑level Bloodline Power."

"With such potent vital blood, even a single drop can let you easily crush opponents!"

"I don't need it!" Ye Liuyun replied, unmoved by its temptation.

He now knows of higher‑grade Bloodline Power and will gradually strive in that direction, without having to borrow the Magic Crystal's power.

The Magic Crystal absorbs anyone's power regardless of good or evil and can enlarge itself; once it becomes too strong, Ye Liuyun cannot control it, so he thinks it's best to destroy it completely to prevent future harm.

The Magic Crystal kept pleading with Ye Liuyun, but soon even its Divine Sense could not be transmitted, because the Tablet not only absorbs energy but also his Divine Sense.

Quickly, the intelligence within the Magic Crystal was erased, turning it into a lifeless object, while the Tablet suddenly emitted a powerful aura, indicating its strength had broken through to the first level of Taixu.

But its ascent did not stop; after about an hour of absorption, the Tablet's aura surged again.

"Hehe, you've advanced quickly; in such a short time your realm has caught up to mine!"

Ye Liuyun guessed it had broken through to the second tier of Taixu and felt rather pleased for it.
