Chapter 635: The Green-Clad Shadow Hero

Forcibly seizing a Sumeru Space was something that had been absolutely impossible in the past.

In the current world, there was absolutely no record of such a thing.

But when Xu Jin was cultivating and deducing star patterns on a lonely island in the Star River, he once discovered something inadvertently.

When he channeled the ninth-tier "Empty Lei Lei Yuanxing Pattern" and the ninth-tier "Clear Era Star Pattern" at the same time, he actually discovered the spatial imprint of his own Sumeru Space, as if he were a bystander.

This greatly surprised Xu Jin.

Because under normal circumstances, a Sumeru Space would only become an ownerless object and emerge after someone was killed, thereby allowing one to find its spatial imprint.

But when the highly sensitive "Clear Era Star Pattern" and the ninth-tier "Empty Lei Lei Yuanxing Pattern" were operated simultaneously, one could discover the spatial imprint of a Sumeru Space.

So, could it be forcibly seized?

Afterward, Xu Jin found an opportunity to try it and discovered that it was possible.

But there were conditions.

It wasn't something one could just seize whenever one wanted.

The ninth-tier "Clear Era Star Pattern" and the ninth-tier "Space Lei Lei Yuanxing Pattern"—that is, accomplishments in powerful spatial star techniques—these two items should be the necessary foundation.

Besides that, one must control the target.

That is, a prisoner.

Because the position of the spatial imprint would move continuously as the opponent moved.

One must also control the nascent spirit or Dao Embryo.

Xu Jin had tried it; if the nascent spirit wasn't controlled, the Sumeru Space imprint would also change continuously under the influence of the nascent spirit, and it couldn't be forcibly seized.

The last condition was Xu Jin's guess.

It should require divine soul cultivation that is roughly equal to or far exceeds the opponent's.

Xu Jin hadn't encountered a prisoner with higher divine soul cultivation yet, so for now, it was just a hypothesis.

Forcibly seizing a Sumeru Space required all these conditions; none could be missing.

As far as Xu Jin's own feeling went, besides him, no one else could forcibly seize a Sumeru Space.

These conditions were too harsh; achieving one was difficult, let alone achieving them all.

As for those with higher cultivation, Xu Jin didn't know about others, but he had asked True Person Youyu once if he could directly forcibly seize someone else's Sumeru Space, and he said it couldn't be done.

However, forcibly seizing a Sumeru Space generally didn't have much use.

If you can capture them, you can kill them.

Once killed, you can get the Sumeru Space.

But for some special characters, it was very important, such as this fellow, the Blood God Sect Master.

If you killed him directly and let him revive through the "Drop of Blood Divine Pattern," even if his cultivation fell, he could rely on the large amount of treasures stored in his Sumeru Space to quickly recover his cultivation, or even regain contact with his subordinates.

If the Sumeru Space was forcibly seized, even if he were killed later, the time it would take for him to recover his cultivation would likely increase several-fold or even ten-fold.

At this very moment, the Blood God Sect Master Yu Shen's terror stemmed precisely from this.

Possessing the "Drop of Blood Divine Pattern," he was accustomed to hoarding large amounts of cultivation resources, from low-tier to high-tier.

What was even more fatal was that after his previous death, his cultivation had fallen to the early eighth tier. The moment he revived through the drop of blood, he had exchanged for quite a few treasures to quickly improve his cultivation through the Thousand Star Token, precisely to recover his strength quickly.

But now, the Sumeru Space was lost.

However, such a thought only flashed for an instant. The Blood God Sect Master Yu Shen knew even more clearly that compared to the loss of those resources and materials, the biggest trouble he faced now was that he could neither live nor die.

That was the most terrifying thing.

He wasn't afraid of death at all.

Even if he died again, it wouldn't take twenty years; at most two years, and he would recover his cultivation to the ninth tier again.

But now, he could neither live nor die...

The next instant, endless darkness descended.

It was precisely the moment his Sumeru Space was drawn out, Xu Jin had already applied a seal and thrown it into his own Sumeru Space.

The sunless days had arrived.

When would he ever be able to escape?

Hiss!

The moment he opened the Blood God Sect Master Yu Shen's Sumeru Space, Xu Jin gasped.

He considered himself someone who had seen the world.

Especially when sweeping through the sixth and seventh-tier star domains, Xu Jin had obtained a massive amount of wealth; it could be said that ordinary gains would find it hard to even make Xu Jin surprised, let alone astonished.

But the Blood God Sect Master's Sumeru Space made Xu Jin's eyes stare blankly.

This wealth was more than all the gains from sweeping through five or six seventh-tier star domains combined.

What met his eyes were hundreds of thousands of sixth-tier Star Tablets and tens of thousands of seventh-tier Star Jade Tablets.

Even for the extremely rare eighth-tier Star Jade Tablets, there were over a hundred in the Blood God Sect Master Yu Shen's Sumeru Space.

And up until now, after Xu Jin had accumulated for so long, the total number of eighth-tier Star Jade Tablets in his hands was only a little over fifty.

With this, the Blood God Sect Master instantly increased the number of eighth-tier Star Jade Tablets in Xu Jin's hands by two-fold.

Star Cores were ordinary.

There were over 1,500 seventh-tier Star Cores and 107 eighth-tier Star Cores, which were estimated to be exchangeable for 500 or 600 points.

In this regard, the Blood God Sect Master was not as good as Xu Jin; Xu Jin now had over a hundred ninth-tier Star Cores in his hands.

There were over a hundred fifth and sixth-tier spirit herbs, and twelve seventh-tier spirit herbs; Xu Jin even saw an eighth-tier spirit herb.

There were also over a hundred fifth-tier divine soul-type spirit herbs; sixth-tier divine soul-type spirit herbs were relatively fewer, only nine, but there was also one seventh-tier divine soul-type spirit herb.

It could be seen that even after reviving through the drop of blood, the Blood God Sect Master Yu Shen hadn't been willing to use this seventh-tier divine soul-type spirit herb to improve his divine soul cultivation.

It should have been used to treat divine soul injuries at a critical moment.

Now, it was Xu Jin's gain.

The key was that with the seventh-tier divine soul-type spirit herb as a base, Xu Jin could fuse and ascend it into an eighth-tier divine soul-type spirit herb, which would absolutely be able to significantly improve his divine soul cultivation.

The same went for those sixth-tier divine soul-type spirit herbs; as long as Xu Jin had enough Divine Dao Golden Beads, they could all be ascended into seventh-tier divine soul-type spirit herbs, which could be used to improve his Dao Embryo cultivation.

As for those spirit herbs that could improve cultivation, once Xu Jin's cultivation broke through to the seventh tier, they would naturally be of great use.

However, these alone were not enough to make Xu Jin astonished.

In the Blood God Sect Master Yu Shen's Sumeru Space, Xu Jin discovered six "Connecting Star Seals" and six "Reflecting Star Seals."

Of these two, the Connecting Star Seal was for assisting sixth-tier peak breakthroughs, and the Reflecting Star Seal could assist seventh-tier cultivators in quickly improving their realm; to exchange for them, the points consumed weren't many, just 100 points.

But Xu Jin saw Star Nether Stones, and there were five of them.

Star Nether Stones were heaven-sent treasures exclusively for eighth-tier cultivators; after use, they could multiply the cultivation speed of eighth-tier cultivators. They could be exchanged for in the Thousand Star Token, 500 points per stone, which was 2,500 points.

But what made Xu Jin's eyes widen were the other two treasures: "Haotian Glaze" and "Infinite Star Rhyme Powder."

Of these two, the cheapest was the Infinite Star Rhyme Powder, 1,000 points per portion, but both were treasures needed to accelerate the ninth-tier Star Tower.

Xu Jin estimated that they should have been exchanged by the Blood God Sect Master Yu Shen for cultivation.

There were three portions of each.

Now, they were Xu Jin's gain. All in all, the treasures Xu Jin obtained from the Blood God Sect Master Yu Shen's Sumeru Space, roughly estimated in Thousand Star Token points, exceeded 10,000 points.

One could only say that this old fellow was truly wealthy.

And this was without counting the two Seven-Star Spirit Treasures in his Sumeru Space.

The Blood God Sect Master's own protective spirit armor had been completely damaged when he used the "Purifying World Blood Flame" earlier.

There were also other miscellaneous items, including a set of Mandarin Duck Seals, which couldn't be counted as any major gain.

One could only say that this old fellow was truly rich.

But thinking about it, it was very normal.

The Blood God Sect wasn't like the Great Chen Grand Master Cheng Yuexiao, who would try every possible way to distribute heaven-sent treasures according to need, trying his best to improve the overall strength of Great Chen.

On the Blood God Sect side, it was layer upon layer of tribute, layer upon layer of exploitation, and in the end, most of the benefits were concentrated in the hands of the Sect Master.

Of course, Yu Shen couldn't take it all; others had to take a cut, such as the left and right protectors, etc.

It was just that the Blood God Sect had previously controlled a large number of star domains, and some star domains had even been controlled for several decades.

The wealth accumulated naturally was terrifying.

Now, it was all Xu Jin's gain.

But truly calculating it, although these gains were of huge value, it was mainly because Xu Jin could use them.

According to what True Person Youyu said earlier, the Emperor Pearl he had gained this time, along with the Blood God Seal, were the true treasures.

After all, those were treasures from the hands of a twelfth-tier Emperor.

He told Xu Jin to keep them well, as they would have great use.

Xu Jin naturally applied heavy seals before storing them.

Especially the Blood God Seal; Xu Jin directly swept it with thunder several times before temporarily sealing and storing it.

After finishing all this, Xu Jin immediately sent messages to his teacher Seeing Qi Shanye and his master Mo Ji using the Mandarin Duck Seals.

【Teacher, if the Blood God Sect Master dies in battle, you and your junior uncle should be considered power-holders within the Blood God Sect, right?】 Xu Jin asked.

【When the Sect Master was here before, we could barely count as such, ranked by power, we could rank around ninth. However, news just came that the Sect Master was defeated at the front line, two elders died in battle, including the Punishment Hall Elder, and two others were seriously injured. The Household Hall Elder Mu has already ordered me to temporarily serve as the Blood Moon City Lord. If the Sect Master falls, my rank could be around fourth or fifth. However, the Sect Master has practiced the "Drop of Blood Divine Pattern," and it is the top-tier "Drop of Blood Divine Pattern," so his rebirth is extremely fast; even if he falls, it won't have much impact. I am about to break through to the eighth tier, and my combat power will at least be comparable to the late eighth tier, or even the peak of the eighth tier. By then, my ranking in the Blood God Sect will likely be able to go up another level.】 Seeing Qi Shanye said.

【Teacher, do you have any interest in controlling the Blood God Sect?】 Xu Jin asked suddenly.

【What do you mean?】

【Teacher, the Blood God Sect Master previously died in battle and revived in the Great Desolation Domain, but at this very moment, he has been captured and controlled by me again. Theoretically, he no longer has the chance to revive through a drop of blood; I will permanently seal his nascent spirit.】

【What? Really?】

Seeing Qi Shanye's shock could be imagined.

In Blood Moon City, Seeing Qi Shanye, who was issuing orders in the City Lord's Mansion, shook his head vigorously, feeling a sense of unreality.

The unbridled Blood God Sect Master was finished just like that?

Just half a day ago, he was still a god-like Sect Master, and now he had been captured alive by his disciple?

【Absolutely true! If Teacher has time, you should be able to come to the Great Desolation Domain through the star gate in the Blood Spirit Holy Temple of Blood Moon City. However, opportunity knocks but once; now is the chance for you to take power or completely control the Blood God Sect.】 Xu Jin said.

【Wait, let me catch my breath and sort this out properly.】 Seeing Qi Shanye said.

【Good.】

Seeing Qi Shanye took a full hundred breaths to recover, and only then did he think everything through.

【Jin'er, I've thought it through.】

【Hmm, no matter what decision you make, Teacher, I will fully support you.】

【Jin'er, I do want to control the Blood God Sect, but I want to take advantage of completely controlling the Blood God Sect to destroy it thoroughly. I want to dig out all the big and small leaders of the Blood God Sect so they no longer poison the current world. It has always been said that blades have no good or evil, and techniques have no right or wrong! But the cultivation method of the Blood God Sect is naturally an evil and wicked method; from the beginning, it requires the essence blood and heart blood of other cultivators to cultivate, and during the cultivation process, it uses the essence and soul of other living beings to boost cultivation. This method is a naturally wicked method. It has caused countless families to be broken and separated. Therefore, I want to destroy it! I know it's impossible to destroy it completely, but I will destroy as much as I can. In addition, I also need to consider carefully how to make a contribution to the human race in this great battle! Let me discuss it with your Master Mo, and we will plan it slowly, plan it slowly.】 Seeing Qi Shanye said.

Xu Jin's expression was slightly stunned.

Blades have no good or evil, techniques have no right or wrong.

But the Blood God Sect's cultivation method is naturally a wicked method.

This reminded Xu Jin of Daniu, and of the countless ordinary people he had seen before whose families were broken because of the Blood God Sect.

He also remembered the countless corpses he had seen during the process of conquering the Blood God Sect.

In an instant, Xu Jin understood!

And he felt even more respect.

Teacher Seeing Qi Shanye had previously been wanted by all the major Star Temples and was called a demon!

He was even smeared by the two major Star Temples as a Shadow Demon!

Now it seemed that the smearing by the two major Star Temples was extremely ridiculous.

Especially the conduct of the Heavenly Yang Star Lord!

Suddenly, Xu Jin remembered the appearance of his teacher Seeing Qi Shanye when he first met him more than three years ago.

Dressed in green, with a stubbly beard, and even more elusive.

It really did have a bit of a demonic nature.

Time reveals a person's heart!

What demon!

This is a hero!

What's even rarer is that Seeing Qi Shanye was wanted by the two major Star Temples, and for twenty-three years, he lived on the run, his green clothes unchanged, his beliefs unchanged!

What Shadow Demon.

This is a Shadow Hero!

A Green-Clad Shadow Hero!

【Good, I am in the Great Desolation Domain. If Teacher needs support or help, just give a shout, and I will arrive in an instant.】

After giving instructions, Xu Jin's gaze looked toward the highest point of the Great Desolation Domain.

Now, he had to handle the second thing upon entering the Great Desolation Domain.

(End of chapter) ===== CHAPTER 636 =====

He was dressed in green, unshaven, and possessed a ghostly, elusive nature.

It really did have a touch of the demonic.

Time reveals a person's heart!

What demon!

This is what a hero is!

What is even more rare is that Seeing Qi Shanye has been wanted by the two great Star Palaces, living as a fugitive across the world for twenty-three years, yet his green robes remain unchanged, and his convictions remain unshaken!

What Shadow Demon.

This is a Shadow Hero!

The Green-Robed Shadow Hero!

【Alright, I am in the Great Desolate Domain. If Teacher needs support or help, just give me a shout, and I will arrive in an instant.】

After giving these instructions, Xu Jin looked toward the highest point of the Great Desolate Domain.

Now, he had to attend to the second matter regarding his entry into the Great Desolate Domain.
