Chapter 2185: Sailing on the Sea of Blood

According to the diagram's calculations, everyone quickly found the Fengquan Aperture.

"This is it!" Gu Baiping commanded the Divine Bell, stopping the Divine Bell at a certain spot on the mountain: "Young Master, according to the diagram's instructions, the Fengquan Aperture should be right below here!"

He Pingsheng asked: "How big can the blood aperture be?"

Gu Baiping said: "The entire blood aperture likely has a diameter of several hundred zhang!"

"Even if our found position has a slight deviation, it doesn't matter!"

"Qian Zhu, what do you think?"

She looked at Qian Zhu.

Qian Zhu said: "Correct, if we define it by the Ancestor's body size, this blood aperture indeed has a diameter of several hundred zhang, but whether our positioning is right or wrong, I don't know, as I lack Divine Sense!"

"It won't be off by much!" Zheng Hongxing's face showed certainty: "The position I calculated with Divine Sense is almost the same as Gu Dajie's calculation!"

He Pingsheng said: "Then let's excavate here!"

"Break through the blood aperture and enter the Witch Emperor's body!"

Boom boom boom...

Under Gu Baiping's urging, the Divine Bell, tens of zhang in size, suddenly expanded, becoming thousands of zhang in size, and was pressed around this mountain body.

Yet no seawater could enter from outside the Divine Bell.

All four people walked out from within the Divine Bell and landed on the mountain below.

Underfoot was sticky and slimy; although the seawater had been drained clean, a trace of breath always remained.

"Burn..." Zheng Hong Lu waved her hand, and a ball of fire flew out, burning the remaining seawater traces to complete dryness!

"What next?" Gu Baiping asked.

Qian Zhu pointed at the ground and said: "Just break through directly!"

"After breaking through, divine power will naturally surge out from within the blood aperture, blocking seawater from entering!"

"Moreover, after some time, this blood aperture will also close on its own!"

"Thus, even if we leave, seawater won't damage the corpse!"

"You all step back a bit, I'll do it!" Qian Zhu extended her fair-skinned fist.

Everyone stepped back a little.

Zheng Hong Lu directly grabbed He Pingsheng and flew into the void.

"Give me... break!" Qian Zhu let out a loud shout, divine power surged into her fist from within, and then her fist, like a small mountain, fiercely smashed onto this piece of land.

The mountain body cracked open a fissure.

Unfortunately, it didn't break through!

"Again!"

Boom boom boom...

Qian Zhu blasted six times in one breath, yet still failed to open the blood aperture.

"Could it be the position is wrong?" Gu Baiping asked.

He Pingsheng said: "Unlikely, perhaps Qian Zhu's strength isn't enough; you two join forces and help her break through!"

Boom boom boom...

The next moment, the three acted together.

Three God King Realm experts struck as one.

Sure enough, the ground shattered, and a circular abyss about a hundred zhang in size suddenly appeared beneath everyone's feet.

The next moment, divine power transformed into a gale that spewed out from the abyss, and the stones that had fallen in were all washed out.

"Broken through..." Qian Zhu exclaimed excitedly: "Young Master, we must hurry in, the blood aperture is temporarily open and won't last long; it will still close automatically!"

"Come on!" Gu Baiping pulled He Pingsheng and hurried into the Divine Bell's interior.

Qian Zhu and Zheng Hong Lu followed closely behind.

After all four entered, the Divine Bell, thousands of zhang in size, suddenly shrank to several zhang in size, then whooshed straight down into the abyss.

The next moment, seawater from all around poured back in, also rushing along into the Divine Aperture.

However, within the Divine Aperture, a divine power naturally gushed out, blocking seawater from entering!

The Supreme Dao Bell is different; it can shrink to very small, and under Gu Baiping's magic power support, it can charge into the blood aperture in an attacking posture.

He Pingsheng looked up, seeing the vast blood aperture above casting a thread of faint light.

But after just a few breaths, the faint light slowly disappeared.

Blood aperture closed!

"Hah..." Qian Zhu exhaled in relief, saying: "Finally we're in..."

"Look, this is the Ancestor's internal condition!"

Buzz buzz buzz...

The next moment, Gu Baiping's inner divine power flew out, transforming into a beam of light illuminating the surroundings.

He Pingsheng followed the divine light and saw that the surroundings were all blood-red flesh walls.

Within those flesh walls, large and small blood vessels crisscrossed clearly visible, and the golden blood within the vessels flowed continuously.

"This..." He Pingsheng exclaimed in shock: "The blood is really flowing!"

"Yes!" Qian Zhu said: "So, I suspect the Ancestor's heart should also be beating!"

The four still flew within the Hongmeng Supreme Dao Bell, not daring to come out, because the outside aura was truly too overwhelming, even God King Realm cultivators could not resist!

The so-called blood aperture is a channel running directly from the body surface to the blood vessels.

This channel is extremely small, so small as to be nearly invisible.

On an ordinary human body, the fineness of the blood aperture can be described as almost invisible.

But when this thing is placed on the body of a Witch Emperor over a million zhang tall, it becomes unimaginably large.

Finally, the four entered the blood vessels through the blood orifice.

The golden divine blood instantly wrapped around the Dao Bell.

The Divine Bell drifted like a small boat in the golden torrent, constantly tumbling and struggling.

"Oh no..." Qian Zhu said: "I forgot something!"

Gu Baiping said: "Damn it... why are you saying this now? What did you forget?"

Qian Zhu said: "After entering the body through the Phoenix Spring orifice, the Divine Bell drifts with the blood vessels, but this is an outward vessel, leading to the soles of the feet!"

"We got the direction wrong!"

Everyone fell into a moment of silence.

The divine seal is on the Witch Emperor's brow; to use its thunder power, we must head toward the skull, yet you tell me we're now going to the soles of the feet?

Damn it!

He Pingsheng asked: "Then what should we do?"

"Is there a way to change course?"

"Impossible!" Gu Baiping said: "The blood flow here is extremely fast; it's utterly impossible to change direction. We can only go with the flow!"

Qian Zhu said: "No need to worry—after the blood passes through the soles, it will return to the heart via another vessel!"

"But... we must properly control the Divine Bell inside the heart, letting it flow with the blood into a fixed vessel, so we can reach the area where the divine seal resides!"

"Gu Elder Sister, it's up to you then!"

Qian Zhu left behind a faint smile.

Gu Baiping asked: "This... is difficult?"

Qian Zhu said: "Not particularly hard, really—just that the blood surges most violently in the heart, requiring more attention!"

Gu Baiping immediately swallowed a sixth-grade Spirit Pivot Pill: "Alright, I guarantee I'll complete the task. When the time comes, Zheng Younger Sister will help me!"

Then came the waiting!

Not long after—about half an incense stick's time—the Primordial Dao Bell followed the blood flow back into the heart!

"We're here!" Qian Zhu shouted: "We've reached the heart..."

"Gu Baiping, extend your Divine Sense to the second major blood vessel above..."

"After entering the second major blood vessel, then choose the third of the six branching vessels ahead, then the first..."

Boom boom boom...

Inside the heart, it was hazy and indistinct, a realm of invisibility.

At this moment, He Pingsheng could see nothing.

Gu Baiping used her Divine Sense to see the second major blood vessel above, but she could no way control the Divine Bell's movement path.

"No way..." Gu Baiping cried: "The blood flow here is too strong; I cannot resist it, I've lost control..."

Amid her screams, the Divine Bell followed the blood into the second blood vessel.

"Hey..." Qian Zhu said: "You actually stumbled in by accident?"

But unfortunately, we entered the correct first vessel, yet at the next vessel bifurcation, we took the wrong turn.

No choice— the four could only follow the blood, circling once inside the Witch Emperor's corpse, then return to the heart, and charge again.

Not really a charge, since we couldn't control the route at all.

Just blind luck.

Let the Divine Bell follow the blood— wherever it goes, it goes.

Once!

Twice!

Three times!

After the four hundred and thirty-sixth time, the Primordial Dao Bell finally followed the blood onto the correct path, charging straight to the divine seal deep within the Witch Emperor's skull.
