Chapter 961: The Blood Demon's Chaos (Supplementary update for 8600 monthly votes from the month before last)

The concept of time for those who practice the Tao is always different from others.

Ever since he gave the order to seal the mountain, Aaron had begun his seclusion.

It was not until one day, when a Spirit Talisman flew into his Cave Abode, that he was barely awakened.

"How long have I been in seclusion?"

He opened his eyes, pinched his fingers to calculate, and discovered it had been only a little over sixty years. He could not help but feel speechless: "Why call me out so soon?"

With this thought, he glanced at his attribute panel:

Aaron refused without even thinking.

"But that old dragon with a Primordial Spirit was also trapped by the Blood Demon using a Great Array. After several years, its Primordial Spirit was extinguished, and the Blood Demon instead refined a Primordial Spirit, its fierce might surging to the heavens, attacking the Immortal sects of the Donghai Immortal Continent one after another... Now, the Five Spirits Sect, Tianshui Sect, and Xiaoyao Island have all been destroyed, and the people of the Donghai Immortal Continent are in a panic..."

It is rumored that this Array Formation is a True Disciple inheritance from beyond the Thirty-Three Heavens, with supreme power capable of stirring up endless seawater, drawing in the Heavenly River, and shaving away the Three Flowers atop a person's head.

Hearing this, Wu Mei rolled her eyes in her heart: 'Still no big deal? By now, all the Outer Sect Disciples who hadn't ascended to Mysterious Light have all died of old age, damn it!'

Since Luofu has already declined, it should no longer cling to the face of being the number one Side Door sect.

Jiuzhen Xianniang steered a streak of pink escape light, heading toward the Heavenly River Water Mansion.

Wu Mei, Yuanyuanzi, and even a dozen Inner Sect Disciples of Mysterious Light were all present, and they bowed in succession.

Wu Mei and Yuanyuanzi did not know the Sect Leader had so many hidden thoughts, so they just hesitated and took out a jade-quality petition: "Tianhe Zhenren of the Nanhai Sect has sent people to distribute letters far and wide, summoning the sects of the Donghai Immortal Continent to the Heavenly River Water Mansion to discuss the matter of the Blood Demon together... What about our sect?"

"Around the time the Sect Leader went into seclusion, a major event occurred at the East Sea Dragon Palace... It turns out the entire East Sea demon race had been eroded by the Blood Demon without anyone noticing..."

"Looking at it now, Senior Brother's method of strictly disciplining disciples was quite timely... One must know that even within the Nanhai Sect, it is said that disciples eroded by the Blood Demon have been discovered..."

Refining a Primordial Spirit is not a one-day task. Aaron sensed his Taiyi Primordial Magnetic Golden Core and found it hadn't grown much, so he leisurely ended his seclusion and arrived at the Sect Leader's main hall.

After dismissing the people of Luofu, Aaron looked at the empty hall, his gaze instantly turning dark.

The expressions of Wu Mei and the others froze, feeling strongly that the Sect Leader was indeed like a tortoise immortal.

"Cough, cough... Although the Luofu mountain gate is difficult to defend against an old Primordial Spirit monster, at the final moment, we could still perish together... Why would the Blood Demon bother for the sake of our mere few dozen people's essence and blood?"

"This seems... like an opportunity as well?"

'Right now, Luofu doesn't even have a hundred people; counting us, there aren't even fifty left...'

Several months later.

It might even go wrong...

No, with the Blood Demon there, it is ten-to-one going to go wrong; it would be better to monitor it remotely.

A Mysterious Light cultivator riding a black deer looked at the magnificent water mansion with its myriad weather and could not help but sigh.

Another Loose Cultivator who was sword-riding sneered.

"As expected of the East Sea Eye; the Nanhai Sect is also an Orthodox Xuan Sect, where the Qi Number of the East Sea gathers..."

In reality, even though Ding Xiadong had removed the Blood God Gu and broken free from control, his entire body of Blood Sea Demon Scripture was still something he had taught himself.

"Exactly... By comparison, Luofu Mountain's claim to be the number one Side Door sect is a joke... Now there are less than a hundred disciples; it has completely fallen..."

"Enough!"

"Sect Leader!"

'Senior Sister, you are overthinking it. The reason the Five Spirits Sect and Tianshui Sect were destroyed is entirely because they had too many people... Now that Luofu Mountain only has two or three kittens, the Blood Demon wouldn't even look at this little bit of essence and blood...'

"Ding Xiadong is clumsy in his work. Back then, a few sects that besieged Luofu were actually missed; should we take this opportunity to wipe them all out?"

Now, she is merely a Loose Cultivator from overseas—Xu Sanniang!

The current Luofu has truly seen its prosperity fade, a picture of misery and decline. If the Inner Mountain Gate Cave Abode didn't have an Array Formation for protection, it might have gone to waste and grown weeds!

Aaron thought for a moment and still stated his reasons.

As an Orthodox Xuan Sect, the Nanhai Sect's mountain gate, while not large, is built upon the East Sea Eye, and its Mountain Protection Array is even claimed to be the Zhou Heaven Starry Galaxy Array, second only to the Two Worlds Ten Directions Dust Array of Emei!

"However, this body just happens to be having its eight-hundredth birthday this year; it should be celebrated properly..."

Jiuzhen Xianniang sighed in her heart, but her face revealed not a single expression.

"Even... he himself is a grand gift I prepared for myself; it is also time to take back the gift package, right?"

No one noticed that in the depths of his eyes, a trace of extremely deep Scarlet flashed by.

【Age: 800】

"Of course I'm not going!"

【Cultivation Method: Taiyi Five Spirits Scripture (42398/100000), Dutian Sword Scripture (55432/100000), Taiyi Meta-Magnetic Divine Prohibition (49829/100000)】

Aaron blinked innocently, as if this matter had absolutely nothing to do with him.

The Sect Leader has been in seclusion and ordered the mountain sealed; it's difficult even if one wanted to go out to recruit disciples!

Wu Mei spoke with a hint of terror: "That Blood Demon has a supreme divine ability called the 'Clone Incarnation Blood Shadow Great Method', which can divide a single Blood Demon thought into thousands, lurking within the bodies of ordinary cultivators and the demon race, slowly influencing, controlling, and eroding them... The East Sea demon race's cultivation methods are inferior and their divine senses are ignorant, making it impossible to detect... By the time the matter was exposed, the entire East Sea Dragon Palace's Jiaolong Wang princes had been slaughtered, a million demon corpses lay in the field, turning into a Blood Pool, and this even provoked an old Primordial Spirit dragon!"

Yuanyuanzi added a sentence.

Aaron complained in his heart.

"Oh? What Blood Demon?"

Aaron sat on a chair made of ten-thousand-year warm jade, waved his hand casually, and asked: "What happened that required calling this seat out of seclusion? Before I went into seclusion, didn't I order that unless it was a major event, you were not to disturb me?"

【Name: Xin Chen (Fang Yu, Aaron)】

Aaron was silent for a long time before saying: "Let the Blood Demon outside cause chaos; as for us sealing the mountain gate, it doesn't matter..."

【Talent: Immortality, Not Within Calculation】

'Luofu...'

However, asking the Sect Leader to end his seclusion today really wasn't for this matter.

Going to such a grand assembly is just to make up the numbers, and one might even get pressed into service.

Yuanyuanzi was a young man with a round, slightly chubby face. At this moment, he stepped out of the ranks and said: "Sect Leader Senior Brother... Recently, in the Donghai Immortal Continent, there is a Blood Demon causing chaos, and it has already become a disaster!"

If one were to say there were no secret doors inside, or that she did not know where his weakness lay, that would be a joke!

She enjoys making friends with those who follow the Taoism, and incidentally participates in gatherings from all directions.

【Realm: Golden Core】

The Nanhai Sect has summoned overseas sects to discuss the major matter of the Blood Demon disaster, so she naturally had to come.

At this moment, looking at the scene of ten thousand immortals coming to pay homage, a trace of reminiscence and hatred appeared in her eyes: "This scene is vaguely similar to Luofu Mountain... It is a pity that such a scene no longer exists in the mountain... For the Nanhai Sect to associate with Emei is also a voluntary degradation... I wonder if that Blood Demon can be made use of?"
