Chapter 667: Bloodline Mysteries, the Master's Determination

"Sect Leader, what do you mean by that?" an Elder asked.

"To find a way to awaken his reason," Xuan said.

"Although the Creation Bloodline is powerful, it should not completely extinguish one's humanity."

"There must be some way to let Lin Xuan return to normal."

"We should go and search for such a method, rather than choosing slaughter."

But this idea was questioned by the majority of the Elders.

"Sect Leader, where is there time now to search for any method?"

"Lin Xuan is killing people every day; can we afford to wait?"

"And even if such a method truly exists, we do not know where to look for it."

Xuantianzi remained silent for a moment, but ultimately insisted on his own stance.

"Regardless, the Tianmen will not participate in this encirclement and annihilation operation."

"We are a righteous sect and should uphold righteous principles."

"We cannot abandon our principles just because of fear."

This disagreement caused the already loose Righteous Alliance to split further.

Some sects advocated for a solution through force, while others insisted on peaceful ideals.

Both sides held to their own views, arguing endlessly.

At the same time, the remaining forces of the Blood Demon Sect were also stirring.

Inside a secret stronghold of the Blood Demon Sect, Vice Sect Master Xue Wutian was gathering various demonic forces.

"Although Xue Tutian is dead, the foundation of the Blood Demon Sect remains deep," Xue Wutian said coldly.

"Now that the righteous path is internally divided, it is the perfect opportunity for us to strike back."

A Demonic Cultivator asked, "Vice Sect Master, what is our plan?"

A cunning light flashed in Xue Wutian's eyes.

"It is very simple: let the righteous path and Lin Xuan suffer mutual destruction."

"Once they have fought enough, we will step in to clean up the aftermath."

"By then, the entire Upper Realm will belong to our Blood Demon Sect."

Another Demonic Cultivator said worriedly, "But Lin Xuan's strength is too great."

"If the righteous path is defeated, we will also be in danger."

"Rest assured," Xue Wutian sneered.

"The foundation of the righteous sects cannot be underestimated."

"Once they unite, even if Lin Xuan is strong, he cannot escape unscathed."

"Besides, we still have a backup plan."

"What backup plan?" everyone asked curiously.

Xue Wutian smiled mysteriously.

"The Sect Master left behind one thing before he died."

"The Soul-Devouring Demon Bead, specifically for devouring the souls of cultivators."

"Once the righteous path and Lin Xuan have fought enough, we will use this Golden Treasure to harvest the battlefield."

"At that time, whether it is the righteous sects or Lin Xuan, they will all become our nourishment."

Hearing this plan, the Demonic Cultivators present all became excited.

If they could truly succeed, the Blood Demon Sect would not only be able to take revenge, but also unify the Upper Realm.

"Vice Sect Master is wise!" everyone praised in unison.

Xue Wutian waved his hand.

"Now is not the time to celebrate."

"Pass down the order to gather all the demonic forces that can be summoned."

"At the same time, send people to secretly observe the movements of the righteous path."

"Once they begin their operation, we must also be prepared."

"This battle will determine the landscape of the Upper Realm for the next thousand years."

"We must not miss this opportunity."

Just as all parties were preparing for the coming great war, Nezha inadvertently discovered a hidden Library Pavilion in the residence of Hunyuanzi.

This Library Pavilion was hidden behind a stone wall; if Nezha had not accidentally touched a mechanism while looking for a Pill, it would never have been discovered.

Inside the Library Pavilion were hundreds of ancient classics, each one exuding the aura of long-passed ages.

"What are these books?" Zhang Wuji asked as he walked in curiously.

Nezha picked one up at random and discovered it was a record regarding ancient cultivation methods.

The value of these classics was extremely precious; any one of them could incite competition among the major sects.

"The senior is truly worthy of being a reclusive expert," Nezha sighed.

"Everything collected here is a rare book long lost to the world."

The two began to browse through these classics, hoping to find a way to heal Hunyuanzi.

Just then, Nezha discovered a particularly ancient book in the corner.

The cover was already yellowed and damaged, with four ancient characters written on it: Record of Bloodline Mysteries.

"Record of Bloodline Mysteries?" A flash of surprise appeared in Nezha's eyes.

"Isn't this exactly what we need?"

He hurriedly opened the book and began to read carefully.

This book recorded the secrets of various special bloodlines, from common Ice and Fire bloodlines to rare Dragon and Phoenix bloodlines, it had everything.

Nezha flipped through the pages quickly and finally found the record regarding the Creation bloodline on the last few pages.

"Found it!" Nezha shouted excitedly.

Zhang Wuji hurriedly leaned over, and the two of them read these precious records together.

The book described in detail the characteristics and awakening process of the Creation bloodline.

The Creation bloodline is hailed as one of the strongest bloodlines between heaven and earth, and its possessor can control the power of creation and destruction.

But this bloodline also has its dangers.

If one awakens it excessively or the bearer's will is not firm enough, they will be controlled by the primal impulses within the bloodline.

This state is known as the "Creation Madman."

"Creation Madman... isn't this Lin Xuan's current state?" Zhang Wuji said in surprise.

Nezha continued to read further down and discovered a more detailed description.

A Creation Madman will lose all humanity and become a pure tool of slaughter.

They only know how to destroy and annihilate, and they must kill any living thing they see.

In this state, the strength of the bloodline possessor will increase significantly, but they will also gradually lose their self.

Eventually, they will become a shell that only knows how to kill.

"This... this is too terrifying." Zhang Wuji's face turned pale.

"If Lin Xuan really becomes like this, then there is truly no saving him."

Nezha hurriedly continued reading, hoping to find a solution.

Finally, on the last page, he found the key record.

The book mentioned that a Creation Madman is not completely beyond saving.

If specific conditions are met, it is still possible to awaken their reason.

"Found it!" Nezha said excitedly.

"The book records the method to awaken a Creation Madman!"

Zhang Wuji hurriedly leaned over, and the two of them read this precious record together.

According to what is stated in the book, to awaken the reason of a Creation Madman, three harsh conditions must be met.

First, the host must feel true pain during the slaughter, rather than pleasure.

This means there needs to be something capable of causing the out-of-control bloodline possessor to experience emotional fluctuations.

Second, a person of closest kin must be willing to offer their life essence to resonate with their bloodline.

Through bloodline resonance, the tyrannical nature of the Creation bloodline can be temporarily suppressed.

Third, the ritual must be performed at a specific time and place.

It is best to do it at a place where Spirit Qi gathers on the night of a full moon, as this will greatly increase the success rate.

After finishing these records, the moods of Nezha and Zhang Wuji became complicated.

On one hand, they were excited that they had finally found a way to save Lin Xuan.

On the other hand, they also felt desperate because of the harsh conditions of this method.

"These conditions... are truly too difficult to meet." Zhang Wuji said with a bitter smile.

"In Lin Xuan's current state, how could he possibly feel pain during slaughter?"
