Chapter 2089: There's a thief!

"Master, rest assured; with the power of Heaven's Mandate Origin backing me, even if the Bloodfiend Old Ancestor comes, I won't fear!"

Lu Xuan: "……"

Next, Yang Jian began to condense the Samsara Array Pattern.

At the same time, he was also drawing in the power of Heaven's Mandate Origin!

"Whoosh!"

His every pore exuded a wisp of white mist.

The surging Dao Resonance flowed into his body, nourishing his limbs and bones.

Yang Jian exclaimed in surprise.

Truly worthy of being the Butterfly Moon Old Ancestor's power!

Utterly pure and unadulterated!

Not a trace of impurity.

Under Lu Xuan's refining method, it was almost as simple as breathing.

This cultivation method was completely like a whale gulping and an ox drinking.

He could absorb as much as his inner world could swallow.

Moreover, after this power circulated once through his body, not only his five viscera and six bowels, his Dao Foundation, and his inner secret trove were all purified.

His cultivation also surged dramatically!

At the same time, his Strange Eye was also undergoing an aberration.

This made him somewhat astonished.

The Strange Eye his master gave him is certainly not just that simple on the surface.

It can perceive the future, and it can even grow!

This is somewhat terrifying!

Not long after.

This blood array, Yang Jian has already completely mastered.

Moreover, he has become thoroughly familiar with the method of refining Heaven's Mandate Origin.

But his cultivation is limited; each time he can only plunder a tiny portion.

Now Heaven's Mandate Origin is controlled by the Bloodfiend Sect, so he is actually competing with them for it.

He can sense the blood-red markings attached to the surface of Heaven's Mandate Origin.

Then he will plunder it bit by bit.

Yang Jian said from the passage, "Master, you don't need to worry about me here."

Lu Xuan nodded, "It's fine; just let go of your hands and feet."

Yang Jian laughed, "Then I really am letting go of my hands and feet."

Lu Xuan: "……"

Meanwhile, at the Bloodfiend Sect's ancestral star.

The Bloodfiend Old Ancestor suddenly looked at the star chart, his face full of disbelief.

"The starfield where Yang Jian is has slipped out of my control."

"The power of the blood array has also disappeared."

"This, this is… Samsara power?"

Rotten Branch Elder and the others looked at the star chart.

Amidst the sky-filling red, a thread of gold was mixed in.

Although compared to the Bloodfiend Sect's Blood Sea, this gold is like a tiny skiff upon that vast sea.

But this Samsara power, however, forcibly shattered their linked momentum.

"Wait."

Rotten Branch Elder pointed to other places on the star chart.

"Not only the place where Yang Jian is, but other places also have Samsara Dao Resonance."

The Bloodfiend Old Ancestor deeply furrowed his brows.

"I say that whoever comes must be swiftly slain—the Ruthless Empress."

"If Samsara domains bloom everywhere, then by the time we face her, we won't be a match for the Ruthless Empress."

"Lu Xuan's few disciples can also control Samsara Dao Resonance; for us, that's not good news."

Rotten Branch Elder said.

"It's fine. They won't be able to jump around for long; once we begin refining Heaven's Mandate Origin, we'll free up our hands to personally deal with the Ruthless Empress and her allies."

"The advantage is entirely ours."

The Bloodfiend Old Ancestor nodded.

Rotten Branch Elder, He Feng Elder, and the others all came before the Weeping Blood Bell.

"Hum!"

The Weeping Blood Bell sat deep in the Blood Sea; its body was already extremely mottled, with many holes visible to the naked eye, all of which were the result of erosion over time.

Aside from the Dao patterns on its main body, the other markings had become blurred.

From it emanated an extremely terrifying fluctuation.

It roared on its own!

As the sound waves rippled out, wave after wave appeared in the Blood Sea.

These ripples carried a strange power.

This power and the blood sun above their heads resonate.

Elder Rotten Branch extended their divine sense, and only then did they discover that the sound waves emitted by the Weeping Blood Bell shot straight up, strand after strand attaching themselves to the Origin of Heaven's Mandate.

Then it gave rise to this enormous blood moon.

Those writhing strands of light on the blood moon are the Dao Resonance emanating from the Weeping Blood Bell.

The Bloodfiend Old Ancestor revealed a memory, saying, "This Weeping Blood Bell was once a treasure far surpassing the Dao Lord level. Now it has fallen to this state."

Elder Rotten Branch let out a grim chuckle, saying, "What's there to regret? At least you've survived. Out there, whatever the Ancient Court of Reincarnation, and even your Holy Lord of Destruction have been killed."

While speaking, he secretly calculated that he could bring the Weeping Blood Bell back.

This will allow them to better control the Origin of Heaven's Mandate!

Elder He Feng also had the same thought.

They cannot replicate a complete Weeping Blood Bell.

However, with the current Weeping Blood Bell, they can reproduce these core Dao patterns through the use of heaven-defying Gu creatures.

He released several scout Gu.

"Hiss!"

Several huge eyeballs flew out, floating near the Weeping Blood Bell, beginning to record every Dao pattern on it.

This is extremely important for their Gu Clan!

The Bloodfiend Old Ancestor did not stop them.

"Boom!"

In his hand appeared an ancient, primordial formation disk.

Upon the formation disk, intricate light and shadow appeared, then faintly projected an energy fluctuation diagram of the Origin of Heaven's Mandate.

Judging from the formation disk's image,

The Origin of Heaven's Mandate is like a mass of inexhaustible, pure energy.

And those crimson strands on the surface are like a giant hand, constantly writhing and seizing the power of the Origin of Heaven's Mandate.

Elder Rotten Branch, Elder He Feng, and Elder Liangzi exchanged a glance.

"Bloodthirsty Old Ancestor, let us lend you a hand."

Before they entered this small world this time, Elder Jing Shan, Ancient Vast Old Ancestor, and others had already passed them the method to control the Origin of Heaven's Mandate, hoping they would cooperate with the Bloodfiend Sect.

Elder Rotten Branch's hand signs shifted, rolling black qi surged forth, and the rich, eerie power began to pour out wildly, weaving from the black mist into one eerie chain after another.

These chains shot straight up like a heavenly path, winding around the Origin of Heaven's Mandate.

In an instant, the chains plunged into the Origin of Heaven's Mandate, like a worm's bite, latching onto a mass of energy and beginning to corrupt it.

This is the Guile Clan's method of control.

Corrupt the Origin of Heaven's Mandate and take its place.

Elder He Feng then threw out several heaven-defying Gu creatures.

"Boom boom boom!"

These Gu creatures swelled to enormous size, practically as large as celestial bodies, with rings of light flashing around them, shining brilliantly.

These celestial bodies directly encircled the Origin of Heaven's Mandate, rotating like planets.

The surging Dao Resonance of the Gu creatures transformed into countless storms that ravaged the surface of the Origin of Heaven's Mandate.

Then Elder Liangzi also took action.

He raised his hand, and a section of the Longevity Divine Tree appeared.

In the span of a breath, this branch took root in the blood sea, its trunk becoming immensely thick, directly transforming into a towering giant tree.

The great tree reached the heavens, its branches lush with leaves, rising from the earth and extending toward the Origin of Heaven's Mandate.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!"

Root after root coiled like flood dragons, then plunged into the Origin of Heaven's Mandate!

The Bloodfiend Old Ancestor nodded, saying, "It works!"

He could sense that his control over the Origin of Heaven's Mandate had grown stronger, allowing him to draw more power.

Suddenly.

The Bloodfiend Old Ancestor and his companions frowned, asking, "How is there still a thief stealing the power of the Origin of Heaven's Mandate?"
