Chapter 517
Xu Jin's infiltration into the Blood God Sect this time once revealed that the biggest difficulty was the internal structure of the Blood God Sect—it could be called impregnable!
From the high-ranking officials of the Blood God Sect downwards, anyone with even a little status had been cross-imprinted with Divine Soul marks, controlling their life and death.
On this point, whether it was human sect members or alien races, all were like this.
Xu Jin once thought that the interior of the Blood God Sect, controlled in this cross-manner, was as solid as a fortress.
But hearing this confession from General Jin Dafeng, Xu Jin suddenly realized that this was the most stable place inside the Blood God Sect, but it was also the most fatal place inside the Blood God Sect.
Low-tier sect members were fine, but for mid-to-high-tier sect members, who would be willing to have their life and death controlled by others for a lifetime?
It was fine if they couldn't see hope.
Once they saw the hope of lifting the control, they would betray the sect without hesitation.
This Jin Dafeng was just like that.
That Eight Desolations Envoy Ju Bo only gave a promise, and it made Jin Dafeng actively leak important intelligence to Ju Bo.
Xu Jin believed that inside the Blood God Sect, there was more than one person like Jin Dafeng who had similar behavior.
At the same time, Xu Jin thought of many things.
Not just the hidden crisis inside the Blood God Sect.
He even thought of the relationship between the Blood God Sect and the Eight Desolations alien races.
Under the background of listening to orders but not attending court, it was likely also an undercurrent surging.
If this point were utilized well, it would be absolutely beneficial to the humans of the current world.
At the very least, it could make the interior of the Eight Desolations Continent fall into internal friction!
Of course, if he really wanted to do this, Xu Jin would only do it along the way.
The main purpose was still to rescue his teacher.
Thinking of this, Xu Jin thought of a method to quickly see his teacher Qi Shanye.
The next instant, Xu Jin actively woke up the sleeping General Jin Dafeng.
The awakened Jin Dafeng had a blank face.
Upon discovering that he had actually fallen asleep, he was even more bewildered.
During interrogation, how could he have fallen asleep?
There was something strange, absolutely something strange!
Just as he was secretly worried and suspicious, Xu Jin's sneer rang out, "General Jin, betraying the sect and leaking secrets, you have truly done a great thing."
"Stop spitting blood!"
On such matters, Jin Dafeng would absolutely not admit it, and would not even leave a single shred of evidence, "Although you Blood Owls have immense power, our Iron Blood Army is not to be trifled with!
It's not that you can frame us however you want just because you want to.
To tell you the truth, when you arrived, I had already urgently notified Army Master Ge; he should be here soon!
Vice Commander Qi, if you are sensible, we can still sit down and be friends now.
Otherwise, when Army Master Ge arrives, let's see how arrogant you Blood Owls can be!"
Army Master Ge, Xu Jin knew him.
Blood God Sect Iron Blood Army Master Ge Qing was an eighth-tier powerhouse, eighth-tier, third layer.
He was also the figure Grand Commander Zhong Ji was most wary of before coming.
If it were under normal circumstances, Xu Jin would have to admit defeat at this point.
However, Xu Jin had already figured out Jin Dafeng's true situation earlier.
"General Jin, the evidence of your betrayal of the sect is as solid as a mountain; even if Army Master Ge comes, it will be in vain!
Perhaps, when the time comes, it can even implicate Army Master Ge, which can be considered a good thing." Xu Jin sneered.
"Keep blowing your horn!"
Jin Dafeng sneered, "Calculate the time, Army Master Ge will be here soon; it's fine if you Blood Owls exercise your duties normally, but if you dare to use those framing methods in my Iron Blood Army camp, Army Master Ge will twist off your dog heads, and you won't even have a place to reason!"
"Ju Bo!"
Xu Jin only said two words, which made Jin Dafeng's expression freeze in an instant, and a ghost-seeing expression appeared on his face.
"I said Eight Desolations Envoy Ju Bo!" Xu Jin sneered.
A panicked expression flashed through Jin Dafeng's eyes, but he still stubbornly said, "Why do you mention the Eight Desolations Envoy? So what if I have met the Eight Desolations Envoy?
The Eight Desolations Envoy represents the Eight Desolations King and has inspected and comforted all the armies of my Blood God Sect; most of the generals in the army have met him!"
"It seems you won't shed tears until you see the coffin!"
Xu Jin sneered.
"Spitting blood, who can't! When Army Master Ge comes, he will make the decision for us!" Jin Dafeng was still tough!
"Eight Desolations Silver Token!"
Following these four words, an endless look of fear appeared in the depths of Jin Dafeng's eyes, but he still suppressed his body's instinctive fear reaction and laughed fiercely, "What are you talking about? I don't understand!"
Xu Jin, however, sneered and turned around, "Alright, since General Jin is so stubborn, then in a moment when Army Master Ge arrives, we will ask Grand Commander Zhong to search your Sumeru space in front of Army Master Ge.
If you refuse, killing you and pulling out your Sumeru space is also a way to find that Eight Desolations Silver Token!
You say a high-ranking officer of the Blood God Sect's Iron Blood Army is holding an Eight Desolations Silver Token unique to the Eight Desolations alien races for communication?
Could it be that he picked it up for fun?"
Once these words were spoken, Jin Dafeng was instantly broken.
All psychological defenses shattered in an instant!
His whole person was like someone whose spine had been pulled out, sitting limply on the chair, looking at Xu Jin with eyes full of fear!
The shock in his heart had reached an unbearable degree!
"You... how do you know?"
Regarding the Eight Desolations Silver Token, that was a top-secret among top secrets.
Except for Envoy Ju Bo and himself, no one else knew.
Even when he used it twice, it was in an empty secret room.
He completely couldn't understand how Xu Jin knew!
The envoy couldn't have leaked it, and he hadn't leaked it, so this...
"How I know is not important!
What is important is, General Jin, do you want to live or die?" Xu Jin said.
In an instant, Jin Dafeng was like a drowning person who had found a life-saving straw, instantly sitting up straight again, looking at Xu Jin with hopeful eyes and saying, "Commander Qi, I want to live!
As long as I can live, I am willing to do anything!"
"Really?" At this moment, Jin Dafeng hesitated for a split second, but thinking of the terrifying punishments for traitors inside the Blood God Sect, his heart shivered violently!
That was truly seeking life but not being able to, seeking death but not being able to!
"Really!
Whatever you want me to do, I will do it!" Jin Dafeng said.
"Alright, first hand over your leverage to me," Xu Jin shouted.
Hearing this, Jin Dafeng hesitated a bit.
If he handed this leverage of his to the Blood Owl Vice Commander before him, his second half of his life would be threatened by this Qi Jin again!
Thinking of those days, it was truly suffocating!
The reason he had agreed to the Eight Desolations Envoy Ju Bo's defection earlier, agreeing to secretly work for the Eight Desolations King in the Iron Blood Army, was most importantly because he didn't want to have his life and death controlled by others anymore!
He was already a seventh-tier powerhouse.
From the fourth tier, he had been controlled in life and death, growing all the way to the seventh tier; he felt the life-and-death chain tied around his neck getting tighter and tighter, making him more and more suffocated.
He even wanted to get rid of this control while sleeping and live that kind of free and easy life.
As for the so-called help from Eight Desolations Envoy Ju Bo to help him break through to the eighth tier, it wasn't that important!
But now, in order to save his life, he had to hand over his leverage to the Qi Jin before him.
Originally, he only had one chain tied around his neck, and later, after being defected by Eight Desolations Envoy Ju Bo, he had another chain.
Unexpectedly, now, in order to untie the first chain, he had let another chain be added to his neck!
Being tied with three chains controlling life and death!
This life was truly miserable!
For a moment, Jin Dafeng wanted to be stubborn once!
But in the blink of an eye, a sentence appeared in his mind: It is better to live miserably than to die well!
When he joined the Blood God Sect at the end of his rope, it was just to seek life!
Now, could it be worse than before?
As long as he lived, there was a chance!
It wasn't that Jin Dafeng hadn't thought about resisting or killing Xu Jin in a surprise attack.
In fact, when Xu Jin had cleaned up two seventh-tier, eighth-layer alien races earlier, he had already shocked him.
Those two seventh-tier, eighth-layer alien races, if you took either one out alone, could fight back and forth with him, a seventh-tier, seventh-layer general.
If he faced two, he, the general, would definitely be defeated!
But Qi Jin had seriously injured those two alien races in one move.
Just this point alone extinguished any thoughts Jin Dafeng had of using force.
"Good!"
The next instant, Jin Dafeng took the Eight Desolations Silver Token out of his Sumeru space, stared at it with extremely complex eyes, and then handed it to Xu Jin.
This thing was his most fatal leverage.
The Eight Desolations Silver Token was a communication tool unique to the Eight Desolations alien races, which could only contact Silver Tokens that had established a connection, or higher-level direct Golden Tokens.
In the entire Blood God Sect, only two Protectors had them.
They were bestowed by the Eight Desolations King!
Others in the Blood God Sect shouldn't have them.
Normally speaking, this dead object couldn't become leverage.
But this Eight Desolations Silver Token required refining into the imprint using Divine Soul power to be used!
That is to say, as long as the Divine Soul imprint inside this Eight Desolations Silver Token existed for a day, this thing was ironclad evidence of his, Jin Dafeng's, betrayal of the Blood God Sect!
At this moment, he could only hand it to Xu Jin with his own hands.
Putting the third chain around his own neck with his own hands!
This life was too difficult!
"There are three things you must do."
"Commander Qi, please instruct."
"First, hand over all the Soul-Returning Pills on you to me."
"No problem!"
The next instant, Jin Dafeng took out the Soul-Returning Pills on his body without hesitation and gave them to Xu Jin.
There were thirty-five fifth-tier Soul-Returning Pills, twelve sixth-tier Soul-Returning Pills, but what surprised Xu Jin most was that Jin Dafeng actually took out a seventh-tier Soul-Returning Pill!
This made Xu Jin pleasantly surprised, but also somewhat surprised, "Didn't you say you had never exchanged for seventh-tier Soul-Returning Pills in the black market?"
Jin Dafeng was somewhat confused.
Had he confessed this point?
It didn't seem so.
But he still explained, "This seventh-tier Soul-Returning Pill wasn't exchanged by me in the black market, but was rewarded to me by Eight Desolations Envoy Ju Bo to help me improve my cultivation!
There were two in total; I used one, and there is still one left."
Xu Jin nodded and accepted these Soul-Returning Pills; with these Soul-Returning Pills, his cultivation could be improved again.
"The second thing, you should know our purpose; in a moment, whatever the Grand Commander asks you to do, you do it!" Xu Jin instructed.
"Understood."
"The third thing, later I will ask you some questions in public; you must lead the next clue to the Blood Moon Army. As for who to lead it to, you choose yourself!" Xu Jin said.
"I understand!" Jin Dafeng nodded, his face full of dejection.
Being manipulated like this today was simply inexplicable.
A hundred breaths later, Grand Commander Zhong Ji suddenly rushed over in a hurry; the moment he rushed into the barracks, he directly transmitted his voice to Xu Jin, "Did you get any evidence or clues?
We don't have much time left!
Just received news, Army Master Ge Qing is about to arrive!"
"Asked out some clues; Jiao Hai's whereabouts were indeed leaked by him carelessly, he has already admitted it!" Xu Jin transmitted his voice.
Once these words were spoken, Zhong Ji was overjoyed, "Good brother, you are capable enough!"
The next instant, Zhong Ji turned and sneered at Jin Dafeng, "General Jin, you have committed a major crime! Regarding this matter, as long as we report it upwards, even if it's not betraying the sect, it's a serious crime second only to betraying the sect!
You know the punishments of the sect!
However, our Hall Master wants to give you a chance to redeem your merits; I don't know if you are willing?"
Hearing this, Jin Dafeng's gaze looked at Xu Jin behind Zhong Ji; following Xu Jin's slight nod, Zhong Ji then said, "I am willing!"
"Then open your mouth!"
The next instant, as Jin Dafeng opened his mouth as told, a streak of blood light was flicked into Jin Dafeng's mouth by Zhong Ji!
Zhong Ji flicked his finger like lightning, wiping Jin Dafeng's throat, and the blood light had already entered his abdomen.
Visible to the naked eye, dark red blood-colored veins seemed to grow, invading Jin Dafeng's entire body, from head to toe, filling it in an instant!
As a member of the Blood God Sect, Jin Dafeng naturally knew what this was!
In an instant, he was stunned, "Blood Fiend Pill?"
Zhong Ji smiled and nodded, "That's right, it's the Blood Fiend Pill! However, this is just an expedient measure; as long as you listen well, we will naturally detoxify the Blood Fiend Pill for you!"
For a split second, Jin Dafeng had a feeling of heart like dead ashes!
Another life-and-death chain!
Four now!
He had four life-and-death chains around his neck!
And at the same instant, the majestic aura unique to the eighth tier had already rushed into the sky above the military camp!
