Chapter 652: Betrayal of the Profound Cloud Sect, Bloodline Awakens Once More
Although the Blood Demon Sect is powerful, in the eyes of the righteous path, it is a demonic cult.
Joining the Blood Demon Sect is equivalent to becoming an enemy of the entire righteous path.
In the spectator stands, the expression of Hun Yuanzi became extremely grave.
He knew that Xue Tutian was definitely not acting out of kindness.
The other party must have sensed the existence of the Genesis Bloodline within Lin Xuan's body.
The Blood Demon Sect is most adept at bloodline plundering and the cultivation of demonic arts.
If Lin Xuan were to fall into their hands, the consequences would be unimaginable.
On the arena, Lin Xuan heard Xue Tutian's invitation and struggled intensely in his heart.
Reason told him that this invitation was very dangerous.
He had also heard of the Blood Demon Sect's reputation; it was definitely not a righteous sect.
But the bloodline power within his body was urging him to accept.
The awakening of the Genesis Bloodline made his craving for power unprecedentedly strong.
And the Blood Demon Sect's techniques happened to be capable of rapidly increasing one's strength.
"Senior's kindness, this junior..." Lin Xuan was just about to speak.
"Wait!"
An aged voice suddenly rang out.
Hun Yuanzi stood up from the spectator stands, his figure flashed, and he appeared on the arena in an instant.
Beneath his seemingly disheveled appearance, a terrifying pressure suddenly erupted.
The aura of the Great Vehicle Stage surged out like a landslide or a tsunami.
The entire Ten Thousand Immortals Valley trembled under this pressure.
"Hun Yuanzi?" Xue Tutian narrowed his eyes.
"You old monster are finally willing to show your face?"
"This seat thought you had already died in some corner."
Hun Yuanzi looked at him coldly: "Xue Tutian, what are you trying to do?"
"Lin Xuan is already my disciple; no one is allowed to lay a finger on him."
"Your disciple?" Xue Tutian laughed out loud.
"Hun Yuanzi, when did you start taking on disciples?"
"And you took in such an interesting kid, no less."
"It seems your eye for talent is not bad."
Two auras of the Great Vehicle Stage collided in the air.
The resulting shockwave swept across the entire venue.
The watching cultivators retreated one after another, fearing they would be caught in the wake of the two peerless powerhouses' auras.
Even those at the Nascent Soul Stage and Transformation Stage felt it difficult to breathe.
This is the terror of a Great Vehicle Stage powerhouse!
"Xue Tutian, I advise you to put away your thoughts," Hun Yuanzi warned.
"Lin Xuan is my disciple; if you dare to touch him, I will dare to wipe out your entire Blood Demon Sect."
"Threatening me?" A murderous intent flashed in Xue Tutian's eyes.
"Hun Yuanzi, do you think this seat is still the junior who had just entered the Great Vehicle Stage back then?"
"Over these years, this seat's strength has advanced by leaps and bounds."
"I am not necessarily afraid of you, you old immortal."
As he spoke, the bloody aura on his body became even thicker.
Blood-red light began to swirl around his body.
Like blood snakes, baring fangs and brandishing claws.
Hun Yuanzi did not show weakness either, as a primordial chaos-like aura emanated from his body.
It was as if it were a black hole capable of devouring everything.
The two's auras continued to climb, and a heaven-shaking battle could erupt at any moment.
But just as tensions were at their peak, Xue Tutian suddenly withdrew his aura.
"Forget it, today is not a good time to fight you."
He took a deep look at Lin Xuan.
"Kid, remember my words."
"The bloodline in your body will sooner or later become your death warrant."
"When you are unable to control it, you will come to find our Blood Demon Sect on your own."
"By then, this seat will still welcome your arrival."
After speaking, his figure flashed and he turned into a streak of blood light, disappearing into the horizon.
Leaving only one sentence echoing in the air:
"Hun Yuanzi, the secret on this kid is far greater than you imagine."
"You had better protect him well, hahaha..."
With Xue Tutian's departure, the oppressive atmosphere finally eased somewhat.
But everyone knew that today's events were far from over.
The Blood Demon Sect Master had come forward in person; it was impossible for him to give up easily.
Lin Xuan felt a chill in his heart upon hearing the final words of Xue Tutian.
Could his bloodline become a death warrant?
What did this mean?
He turned his head to look at Hunyuanzi, wanting to get an answer.
But Hunyuanzi merely shook his head: "We will talk about it when we return."
"Today's events have made many people take notice of you."
"The days ahead will likely not be very peaceful."
Lin Xuan nodded, a faint, ominous premonition stirring in his heart.
Bloodline awakening brought powerful strength, but at the same time, it also invited immense danger.
This path was destined not to be smooth.
In the spectator stands, representatives from various factions were whispering to one another.
"What exactly is that kid's background?"
"To think he could attract the attention of both Xue Tutian and Hunyuanzi at the same time?"
"It seems we must re-evaluate his value."
"Send people to keep a close watch on him; report any movement immediately."
For a time, Lin Xuan became the focus of everyone's attention.
The Immortal Ascension Assembly ended hastily after Xue Tutian departed.
The various factions had no heart to continue watching the competition and dispersed one after another.
But everyone's attention remained focused on Lin Xuan.
Hunyuanzi led the three of them away from Ten Thousand Immortals Valley, his expression grave.
He could feel countless eyes in the shadows watching them.
"Master, where are we going now?" Lin Xuan asked.
"First, back to Qingyun City," Hunyuanzi said.
"But be prepared to fight at any moment."
"Xue Tutian will never give up easily."
On the way back to Qingyun City, Hunyuanzi suddenly stopped.
"Lin Xuan, there are some things I must tell you."
"What things?" Lin Xuan asked.
"The process of bloodline awakening has not yet fully ended," Hunyuanzi said solemnly.
"Today's awakening was only the first stage."
"Greater changes await you in the future."
"What kind of changes?" Lin Xuan asked, frowning.
"I am not too clear on that myself," Hunyuanzi shook his head.
"The awakening process of the Creation Bloodline is extremely complex."
"Every person's situation is different."
"But one thing is certain: as the awakening deepens, your humanity will further disappear."
"In the end, you may completely lose your emotions and become a pure killing machine."
Hearing this, Nezha and Zhang Wuji were both shocked.
"Master, is there any way to stop this change?" Nezha asked hurriedly.
"No," Hunyuanzi shook his head.
"This is the inevitable result of bloodline awakening."
"No one can change it."
After hearing this, Lin Xuan's face remained expressionless.
"It doesn't matter; I don't need those superfluous emotions anyway."
Nezha looked at him, a sense of sorrow rising in his heart.
Was that friend who once valued loyalty and righteousness truly going to disappear completely?
The group continued forward and soon returned to Qingyun City.
But the moment they entered the city, everyone sensed an unusual atmosphere.
The once bustling streets had become deserted, and many shops had their doors and windows tightly shut.
There were far fewer pedestrians on the street, and the occasional cultivator passing by moved in a hurried manner.
"The situation is not right," Hunyuanzi said in a low voice.
"There are many unfamiliar cultivators in the city."
Lin Xuan carefully observed his surroundings and indeed discovered quite a few suspicious individuals.
These people looked ordinary on the surface, but their eyes contained hidden killing intent.
Moreover, their positioning was very deliberate, faintly forming an encirclement.
