Chapter 559

Watching the blood handprint condensed from blood light by the Blood God Sect Master roaring toward him, covering the sky and earth, Xu Jin felt his heart shake and his spirit dazzled.

But at the same moment, inside the Upper Star Palace, the Primordial Spirit divine light erupted brilliantly.

It turned out that this blood handprint carried a Soul-Spirit attack, slightly affecting Xu Jin's Soul-Spirit.

It was only because Xu Jin's Primordial Spirit cultivation was powerful; otherwise, this single strike alone would have been enough to heavily injure Xu Jin.

Boom!

The Five-Element Thunder Slash roared out instantly.

It only caused this blood handprint to shrink by a circle, but it did not shatter it.

Seeing this blood handprint roaring toward his face, Xu Jin launched the star art "Qianshan" without any hesitation!

Amidst muffled roars, one after another, earth-yellow diamond-shaped mountains roared toward the blood handprint in a linear fashion.

One after another.

In just a brief moment, they actually ground this terrifying blood handprint into nothingness.

The Blood God Sect Master, who had just soared into the air, had a look of astonishment appear in his eyes.

The strike just now was not only his full-power strike, but also a strike launched after he channeled a portion of the Blood Spirit Sacred Hall's power to augment it, which had increased the power of this star art by at least twenty percent.

He had originally prepared this star art to deal with the King of the Eight Desolations, Envoy Ju Zhang.

The Blood God Sect would inevitably fall out with the Eight Desolations Wang Ting one day; this was one of his trump cards for that fallout.

He hadn't expected that this peerless human genius before him would actually withstand it.

Suddenly, he understood the difficulty of this peerless human genius that the King of the Eight Desolations, Envoy Ju Zhang, had spoken of.

When the King of the Eight Desolations, Envoy Ju Zhang, sought to join forces with him, he had once thought that the King of the Eight Desolations had other intentions and other schemes.

So he had set up the Blood God Guide early in Blood Moon City to facilitate his return.

He hadn't expected that the target Envoy Ju Zhang was hunting would be truly this difficult to deal with.

At the same moment, the instant Xu Jin blasted out a Five-Element Thunder Slash, he soared into the sky, turning into a streak of lightning and darting toward the outside of Blood Moon City.

Even if he had to go head-to-head with the Blood God Sect Master, there was no need to fight a great battle inside Blood Moon City.

Moreover, just from this one exchange, Xu Jin understood that at his current stage, he was still no match for the Blood God Sect Master.

Of the thirty-six stratagems, fleeing is the best!

He casually waved a streak of blood light, wanting to grind away the lightning Xu Jin had blasted out, but in an instant, the blood-colored star light at the Blood God Sect Master's fingertips was shattered, and his entire palm felt an incomparably burning, stinging pain.

But it was limited to this.

The lightning was immediately ground away by the massive blood light that was like a torrent.

The moment a look of surprise appeared in the Blood God Sect Master's eyes, the Blood God Banner suddenly appeared above his head; with a light point, under the blood-colored sky, several streaks of blood light coiled toward Xu Jin like poisonous dragons, two of which had already blocked Xu Jin's retreat.

The moment he channeled the star light of the Arena of Battle to recover his star power, Xu Jin, who was darting at high speed, was forced to stop by these poisonous dragon-like blood lights; amidst rolling muffled thunder, lightning had already roared toward these poisonous dragon-like blood lights.

The "Qianshan" from just now, although it blocked the Blood God Sect's full-power strike, also directly consumed seventy percent of the star power in Xu Jin's body.

The moment the Blood God Sect Master's star light flashed, he didn't forget to send a star light transmission to the King of the Eight Desolations, Envoy Ju Zhang.

"I have sealed and trapped the target, but I may not be able to keep him; come quickly!"

This was both a request for support and a humble way of speaking.

As far as the current situation was concerned, the Blood God Sect Master felt that although this peerless human genius was difficult to deal with, he had an eighty to ninety percent chance of keeping him.

The Blood God Sect Master even thought of many things.

If he could capture him alive, control his Soul-Spirit, and then use other means to control him, could the current losses of the Blood God Sect be recovered?

Recently, the losses of the Blood God Sect's elites had been too great.

The King of the Eight Desolations, Envoy Ju Zhang, who was flying at high speed toward Blood Moon City, was greatly encouraged after receiving this message from the Blood God Sect Master.

Sure enough, joining forces with the Blood God Sect Master was the right choice.

Once trapped, the chance of capturing him alive or killing him would be very high.

And he still needed at least over one hundred and fifty breaths to arrive.

The next instant, Envoy Ju Zhang's heart urged him on, and the twelve golden patterns on the golden horn atop his head suddenly exploded by two circles.

Almost simultaneously, Envoy Ju Zhang's speed suddenly increased by forty percent.

This was the explosive method of their Golden Pillar Tribe; those golden patterns grew one circle every ten years, and every time one exploded, it could increase his strength by twenty percent for a quarter of an hour.

But if they all exploded, it would represent the exhaustion of his potential and lifespan.

The moment his speed increased by forty percent, Envoy Ju Zhang simultaneously issued an action notification to the eighth-tier experts he had left behind.

The opportunity was rare.

However, he also had to be prepared for any eventuality.

And this time was the closest he had ever been to capturing the Seven Killings successor alive.

Inside Blood Moon City, the moment Xu Jin shattered the four poisonous dragon-like blood lights rushing toward him, the Blood God Sect Master had already rushed to within one thousand meters behind him; the blood-colored long banner flew out, as if a blood dragon were crossing the sky, instantly shrouding Xu Jin's entire thousand-meter radius; from all directions, everything was circling and squeezing toward Xu Jin, as if wanting to strangle Xu Jin on the spot!

Boom!

Lei Guang roared out, and the poisonous dragon formed by the blood-colored long banner only had a portion of its blood light dissipated.

Without any hesitation, spatial star art: Void!

Sealing and shaking space only meant that Xu Jin couldn't directly perform spatial displacement with his physical body; most spatial star arts could still be used.

The space in the area where the blood dragon was located disappeared into thin air piece by piece; as blood-colored star light exploded repeatedly, the blood dragon disappeared, and the Blood God Banner revealed its true form.

Boom.

The Five-Element Thunder Slash roared out, directly blasting the Blood God Banner until its blood light was dim!

Palpitations suddenly emerged.

A blood-colored palm suddenly appeared at Xu Jin's back and slapped down heavily; Blood God Sect Master Yu Shen had already appeared behind Xu Jin.

As Xu Jin felt his heart turn stern, the star art "Flower Shifting" was already activated.

The moment the star light of the blood-colored palm was weakened by over twenty percent, it slapped onto Xu Jin's back.

But Xu Jin's Fish Screen Jin Zhong was unexpectedly massive.

This was because Xu Jin had injected all twenty-one points of Earth Core Earth Rhyme he had accumulated over the past seven days into the Fish Screen Jin Zhong the moment Blood God Sect Master Yu Shen appeared behind him.

The golden light exploded twice before the Fish Screen Jin Zhong was shattered; the blood-colored palm print directly shattered the Seven Star Spirit Armor Xu Jin had already damaged, blasting Xu Jin into the air and causing him to spray a blood arrow from his mouth.

At the same moment, the Blood God Sect Master's blood-colored palm print condensed again, and the Blood God Banner turned into a blood dragon and shrouded Xu Jin's head.

In Xu Jin's eyes, a fierce look flashed at the same moment.

The twenty Divine Dao Golden Beads he had prepared long ago were injected into the "Thought Blade Explosion" the moment the Blood God Sect Master appeared behind him, and then directly blasted into the body of the Blood God Sect Master who had appeared behind him.

This was a killer move Xu Jin had prepared for Envoy Ju Zhang, or rather, a life-saving method in extreme situations after encountering Envoy Ju Zhang; he hadn't expected to use it on the Blood God Sect Master first.

At the same moment, the Blood God Sect Master's head felt severe pain, as if struck by a hammer.

And it was the kind of continuous vibration.

In an instant, the Blood God Sect Master felt his head boiling, and countless tiny cracks appeared on his Primordial Spirit.

From his seven orifices, blood sprayed wildly.

At the same moment, the Blood God Sect Master felt a chill all over his body, feeling as if he were wrapped in endless cold ice.

Xu Jin looked at Blood God Sect Master Yu Shen, who had first been struck by his Divine Dao Golden Beads and Thought Blade, causing his Primordial Spirit to be damaged, and then frozen by his Spatial Flash Ice Trace.

For a moment, Xu Jin had the urge to gamble.

There were still eleven Divine Dao Golden Beads left; should he explode another wave and finish off the Blood God Sect Master?

But the moment this thought flashed, it was denied by Xu Jin.

He couldn't gamble on luck, and he couldn't gamble on probability.

The Blood God Sect itself had many secret techniques, and above the ninth tier was a world Xu Jin knew nothing about.

If he risked his life and didn't kill him, wouldn't he have wasted this precious opportunity?

He still had to move in a direction with more certainty. For Xu Jin now, gaining a little more time was the greatest safety.

Without any hesitation, Xu Jin activated five-fold Flowing Radiance.

Amidst the shrill sonic boom, he crashed into a seventh-tier expert who had just rushed over and happened to block his path, turning him into minced meat, and instantly rushed five li away, but he still hadn't rushed out of the range where the Blood God Sect Master had used blood light to shroud and seal space.

At the same time, the moment the Blood God Sect Master recovered his consciousness, the blood light exploded, directly shattering the cold ice Xu Jin had used to freeze him; the moment brilliant light flashed in his eyes, the Blood God Banner's blood light instantly surged.

Almost simultaneously, a point of cold ice exploded in front of him again.

Spatial Flash Ice Trace!

Accompanying it was a sharp Soul-Spirit attack.

This gave Blood God Sect Master Yu Shen a huge fright.

If the Soul-Spirit attack from just now came in another wave, even if his Primordial Spirit didn't collapse on the spot, it wouldn't be far from it, and that would be a thoroughly heavy injury state for his Primordial Spirit.

To recover, it wouldn't be something a few sixth-tier Soul-Spirit spiritual medicines could fix; it would require a massive amount of time.

Without any hesitation, the Blood God Sect Master channeled his Soul-Spirit defense with all his might, his Primordial Spirit retracted, his Primordial Spirit Fetal Light shrank to the extreme, and his Soul-Spirit defense secret technique was channeled to the extreme.

The Blood God Banner rolled back, and the moment this Soul-Spirit attack struck him, it shrouded his entire body.

The Blood God Banner not only carried Soul-Spirit attacks when attacking, but could also defend against Soul-Spirit attacks to a certain extent.

But the moment this Soul-Spirit attack struck his body, a trace of shame and annoyance flashed in the Blood God Sect Master's eyes.

He had been toyed with.

This was just an ordinary Soul-Spirit attack; although it was very strong and could affect him, it was only an effect and couldn't damage his Primordial Spirit.

It was far inferior to the Soul-Spirit attack that had heavily injured his Primordial Spirit earlier.

Because he had defended his Soul-Spirit with all his might, the Blood God Sect Master was frozen into a lump again.

The moment he erupted with blood light and shattered the deep blue cold ice to escape, he looked up, his eyes filled with astonishment.

From all directions, there was no longer any shadow of this peerless human genius.

Let alone inside Blood Moon City, which was covered in blood color, there was no one in the void outside Blood Moon City either.

The only thing that could be vaguely sensed was a lingering spatial fluctuation.

"This is truly difficult to deal with..."

Blood God Sect Master Yu Shen muttered to himself as he flew above Blood Moon City, looking down; with just one glance, his anger surged, and the blood light around his body fluctuated violently and uncontrollably.

The losses of Blood Moon City were too great!

Three thousand li away, Xu Jin gasped violently, green light surging all over his body; the Star-Healing star pattern was rapidly recovering Xu Jin's injuries. This battle with the Blood God Sect Master was truly a bit precarious.

Xu Jin hadn't expected Blood God Sect Master Yu Shen to return so quickly.

A few breaths later, Xu Jin, whose injuries had slightly recovered, activated the Eye of Oversight to observe the surrounding situation for the first time.

Because of the growth in his Soul-Spirit cultivation, Xu Jin's Eye of Oversight could now observe the situation within a radius of six thousand li.

Under the observation of the Eye of Oversight, there was a ninth-tier aura in Blood Moon City, which was undoubtedly the Blood God Sect Master.

Determining that the Blood God Sect Master hadn't pursued him, and that there were no ninth-tier experts pursuing him within a radius of six thousand li, Xu Jin finally breathed a sigh of relief.

But Xu Jin wasn't sure yet if the King of the Eight Desolations, Envoy Ju Zhang, could continue to track his position.

He couldn't let his guard down yet.

After consecutive displacements and a great battle, Xu Jin's Soul-Spirit cultivation was less than forty percent.

Swallowing another fifth-tier Soul-Spirit spiritual medicine nurtured to the extreme to recover his Soul-Spirit power, Xu Jin chose a direction to continue moving away from Blood Moon City, while sending a message to Ju Ju Shiqi Qi Shanye.

"Teacher, how are you? Are you okay?"

"You brat, you're quite capable. I can already smell the aroma of meat; it's medium-rare. If you had cooked me well-done, I would be finished. How about you? Are you safe?" Qi Qi Shanye asked.

"Temporarily safe. Teacher, keep an eye on the situation in Blood Moon City and see if any Eight Desolations alien teams have arrived, especially the King of the Eight Desolations, Envoy Ju Zhang."

"Rest assured, if I find anything, I will notify you immediately. I won't talk anymore; the Sect Master is checking everyone's injuries and is coming over."

"Good."

One hundred breaths later, Xu Jin had completely refined that fifth-tier Soul-Spirit spiritual medicine, and with the Spirit Platform star art continuously operating, his Soul-Spirit cultivation had recovered to seventy percent.

Suddenly, the star light of Xu Jin's Mandarin Duck Seal flashed; he sank his mind into it, and it was a message from Ju Ju Shiqi Qi Shanye.

"The King of the Eight Desolations, Envoy Ju Zhang, has arrived at Blood Moon City."

"Received."

Getting this news, Xu Jin suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

Envoy Ju Zhang's tracking of Xu Jin was not continuous, or at least not a real-time track that could be maintained for a long time.

He was safe.

However, the King of the Eight Desolations, Envoy Ju Zhang's speed was fast enough.

Xu Jin had estimated that it would take about three hundred breaths for him to rush from ten thousand li away to Blood Moon City; he hadn't expected him to arrive in less than two hundred breaths.

He must have had a secret technique to increase his speed.

In the future, he would have to be even more cautious.

He couldn't underestimate the heroes of the world.

At this thought, Xu Jin's heart suddenly stirred.

The King of the Eight Desolations, Envoy Ju Zhang, had arrived at Blood Moon City with super speed, but what about the other eighth-tier experts?

Where were they now?

Perhaps there was an opportunity to take action!

This was a good opportunity for a harvest.

Especially eighth-tier star cores.

If the situation was really as Xu Jin had envisioned, this opportunity would be quite rare.

The next instant, Xu Jin turned and flew toward the direction where the alien main force had been earlier, while sending messages to Ju Qi and Ju Man to inquire about their situation.

Very quickly, Xu Jin received a response.

"My lord, about half a quarter of an hour ago, the Great King issued an order for me to head to Blood Moon City in batches and teams; all the eighth-tier late-stage experts have already rushed to Blood Moon City at high speed.

We eighth-tier early-to-mid stage experts have currently been divided into three teams, heading in three directions, and are advancing at high speed."

Ju Qi and Ju Man sent messages at the same time, which made Xu Jin's heart stir.

"Where are your positions, and how many people are in the team? What about the eighth-tier experts of the Blood God Sect?"

"My lord, the eighth-tier experts of the Blood God Sect have already left in advance; there might be some misunderstanding. Our team currently has eleven eighth-tier experts, totaling four eighth-tier mid-stage and seven eighth-tier early-stage experts."

Getting this information, Xu Jin's heart sank.

Still no opportunity.

Eleven eighth-tier experts; even if Xu Jin took out one or two in a surprise attack, if the others concentrated their fire on Xu Jin, Xu Jin estimated he would be finished; it was too dangerous.

Just as he was about to give up, he suddenly thought of another question, "Ju Qi, are you and Ju Man in the same team?"

"My lord, I am in the same team as Ju Man."

Getting this message, Xu Jin's gaze flickered slightly.

This counterattack seemed to still have a chance.

With two insiders, the effect was not just a reduction of two in the number of eighth-tier experts.
