Chapter 114: Purple Heaven Alliance: The Blood Lord, a Great Demon, Condemned by the World
Flowing River Demon Cave.
Several terrifying figures appeared, each emanating an extremely daunting aura.
It was as if they had merged with heaven and earth, becoming one with the surroundings.
"A Supreme Being?" Zi Dao Ren stared at the corpse of Yu Bai, the Supreme Being, and his eyes filled with murderous intent.
"And a Land Myth as well. Humph, for such an insignificant insect to dare enter our headquarters is truly seeking death!"
The faces of the Supreme Beings present turned grim.
To have someone infiltrate their headquarters and assassinate a Supreme Being was indeed a great humiliation.
Especially for Zi Dao Ren, who had just arrived.
"To be able to kill Yu Bai, the Supreme Being, that Southern Land Supreme Being must have some skills." Zi Dao Ren's eyes deepened as he fixed his gaze on Yu Bai's corpse, deep in thought.
"After killing Yu Bai, that Southern Land Supreme Being must have already fled towards Great Sorrow City.
In a few days, our army will head to Great Sorrow City and make those Southern Land cultivators pay!" declared one of the Supreme Beings solemnly.
Just then, another Supreme Being suddenly spoke up, "There's an incident at the Ape Demon Cavern, and a Supreme Being is under attack!"
The Ape Demon Cavern was located very close to the Flowing River Demon Cave.
The Supreme Beings present were all taken aback by this news.
"He didn't flee? He dares to venture to another demon cave?"
"How bold, not putting us in his eyes!"
The Supreme Beings present were all filled with anger.
After assassinating a Supreme Being, instead of escaping, this person continued to wreak havoc.
This was a blatant disregard for their presence.
Zi Dao Ren's eyes also flashed with murderous intent.
He lightly tapped the stone tablet within his robe and, upon sensing no danger, he declared, "Everyone, follow me to the Ape Demon Cavern and kill this brute!"
Zi Dao Ren was a Great Supreme Being, and upon hearing his words, none of the Supreme Beings dared to disobey.
All the Supreme Beings set out together, rushing towards the Ape Demon Cavern.
At that moment, within the Ape Demon Cavern, Qi Yuan had been on a killing spree.
Countless demonic beasts fell under his sword.
With his formidable attacks, no demonic beast could withstand a single blow from him.
He was like a god of slaughter, opening a path of destruction through the demonic beasts.
Chen Huan witnessed this scene, his eyes filled with shock and awe, "This... this is too insane."
He knew Qi Yuan was powerful, considered a top cultivator among Land Myth cultivators, but he never expected Qi Yuan to be this formidable.
In terms of killing demonic beasts, Qi Yuan, a Land Myth cultivator, was even faster than Chen Huan when not using his Primordial Divine Ability.
And as a Supreme Being, their Primordial Divine Abilities were not infinite, so they wouldn't use them casually.
At that moment, Qi Yuan's voice rang out, "What are you waiting for? Hurry up!"
Chen Huan was startled, then immediately realized something, "Big Brother, let's run!"
Having recently reached the Supreme Being realm and killing a Supreme Being, Chen Huan had been feeling like he was in a dream.
His mind was in a daze.
Only now did he realize that if they continued killing here, they would be surrounded by the Northern Land Supreme Beings.
Qi Yuan swept his sword, and wherever the sword light passed, demonic beasts were slain.
His eyes were filled with intense killing intent.
His experience bar continued to surge.
He was very close to reaching level 120.
"The plan is ahead of schedule. We've already reached the third step. How can we retreat now? We should strike while the iron is hot and complete the third step. After I become a Supreme Being, I'll kill that old dog, Zi Dao Ren!" Qi Yuan said viciously.
The more demonic beasts he killed, the more Sin Origin he extracted, and the more he suppressed his negative emotions.
"Big Brother, let's hurry and run. Even if we reach the Supreme Being realm, we..."
Chen Huan was genuinely anxious.
Zi Dao Ren was a Great Supreme Being cultivator.
The gap between a Great Supreme Being and an ordinary Supreme Being was significant.
It could be said that if Zi Dao Ren stood there and told Chen Huan to kill him, Chen Huan wouldn't be able to do it.
Although his brother was mysterious, he was still too young.
Chen Huan believed that given a thousand years to mature, his brother would easily surpass Zi Dao Ren.
"Run? It's too late. They're already here." Qi Yuan narrowed his eyes, his hand movements never ceasing.
Kill! Kill! Kill!
His eyes were filled only with slaughter, as if he wanted to tear through this world and shatter the Windflow Realm.
Chen Huan sensed several powerful auras approaching.
Among them was one that was obscure and profound.
A Great Supreme Being!
It must be the Great Supreme Being, Zi Dao Ren!
Escape... it was indeed impossible.
Chen Huan's face fell, feeling trapped in this predicament.
His great-granddaughter was about to give birth, and he hadn't even had a chance to visit her.
He wondered if his dozens of concubines missed him.
If he died here, the world would continue without him.
"Big Brother, we're about to die. Can I ask you something?" Chen Huan spoke weakly.
"Speak quickly, and fart quickly!" Qi Yuan paid no heed to Chen Huan, continuing to slaughter the demonic beasts as if racing against time.
Sadness spread across Chen Huan's face. With sincerity, he said, "I've lived a lonely life, and before I die, I wonder if I'll have the chance to acknowledge you as my foster father."
"Scram!" Qi Yuan cursed.
The broken sword in his hand resembled a long dragon, surging with power.
Hundreds and thousands of demonic beasts continued to fall.
The auras of the Supreme Beings were rapidly approaching.
A long-awaited prompt sounded in Qi Yuan's ears once more.
【You have reached level 120 and gained a chance to comprehend Primordial Energy. Do you wish to use it?】
After nearly a century of killing demonic beasts and a Supreme Being in the Windflow Realm, Qi Yuan's experience bar finally reached level 120.
Level 120 was a significant milestone.
Upon reaching it, one became a Supreme Being.
At this moment, Qi Yuan could be considered a half-step Supreme Being.
Because he hadn't yet comprehended his Primordial Divine Ability.
"Comprehend." Qi Yuan naturally wouldn't pass up the opportunity to comprehend Primordial Energy provided by the level-up.
And this time, he would condense his most powerful Primordial Divine Ability.
The scene of the present world was frozen in time.
When Qi Yuan opened his eyes, he found himself in a place he was all too familiar with—Jiupan Mountain.
But the Jiupan Mountain before him was vastly different from the one in his memories.
Overgrown with weeds and brambles, the once bustling mountain now lay desolate and uninhabited.
The once lively Jiupan Mountain had become a barren wasteland.
"How many years have passed?" Qi Yuan looked around, a sense of desolation in his eyes.
A feeling of loneliness overwhelmed his heart.
He lifted his gaze towards the vast sky, and his eyes suddenly hardened with determination, "I must become a Da Luo Jin Xian, a Hunyuan Saint, and play with the river of time, you little runt!"
Putting aside his loneliness, Qi Yuan's divine sense scanned Jiupan Mountain.
Unfortunately, he couldn't find anything familiar.
"Jin Si Que... Wan Shu Zhi Men..."
"It seems that this time, I can't stay confined to Jiupan Mountain. I must venture out into the world myself."
He contemplated the Primordial Energy and focused on the Gate of Ten Thousand Varieties.
Now at level 120, his strength should be sufficient to enter the Gate of Ten Thousand Varieties.
The closer he was to the gate, the faster he comprehended, and the more benefits he gained.
Dressed in a crimson robe, Qi Yuan looked at the dilapidated Jiupan Mountain with a nostalgic expression, "Sometimes, it's quite boring when there's no one around chattering non-stop."
He left Jiupan Mountain and headed downhill. Suddenly, he intentionally slowed down, resembling a novice cultivator.
Within a few breaths, five purple-robed human cultivators appeared, their faces filled with excitement, "Blood Lord's descendant, catch him quickly!"
The five cultivators, whose cultivation was around the Overlord level, rushed towards Qi Yuan.
Qi Yuan looked at them and asked coldly, "Why are you calling me that?"
Hearing this, the leader of the group turned his eyes to the person beside him and said, "He doesn't seem to be the Blood Lord's descendant."
If he were the Blood Lord's descendant, he would have fled upon seeing them.
"Whether he's the Blood Lord's descendant or not, anyone appearing here is the Blood Lord's descendant. We can still claim the reward for capturing him!" said a purple-robed cultivator with a large mole on his face.
The five cultivators reached a consensus and glared at Qi Yuan with malicious intent, "Brother, don't blame us. If you must blame someone, blame your bad luck!"
They rushed towards Qi Yuan, intending to capture him.
Just then, a long spear swept across, and a youth in black robes appeared.
The spear, like a snake, pierced through the chest of the purple-robed cultivator.
At the same time, several flying daggers shot towards the other cultivators, piercing their celestial courts.
These five purple-robed cultivators didn't have any chance to resist and were swiftly eliminated.
"Hmph, everyone from the Purple Heaven Alliance deserves to die!" said a short-skirted girl with a high ponytail, exuding a valiant aura. She had just used her flying daggers to kill the remaining purple-robed cultivators.
The man in black, who wielded the spear, stood side by side with the short-skirted girl. He looked at Qi Yuan and said slowly, "Brother, my junior sister and I have already taken care of these people. You should leave quickly, or else, when the Purple Heaven Alliance arrives, you won't be able to escape."
"Thank you both for saving my life," Qi Yuan said, looking at the two of them. He showed a puzzled expression, "May I ask who you are?"
"You don't know the Purple Heaven Alliance?" The short-skirted girl, Bai Luo, looked at Qi Yuan with a strange expression.
"I've been cultivating in the mountains and am unaware of worldly affairs," Qi Yuan replied.
Hearing this, the man in black showed a cautious expression.
They had initially thought that the man in the blood-red robe was just a low-level cultivator, which was why they had helped.
But now, it seemed that he wasn't as simple as they had thought.
The man in black, Hei Yu, said, "This matter is a long story. It's better if we talk while walking."
If they stayed here, the Purple Heaven Alliance's people might arrive at any moment.
"Okay," Qi Yuan nodded.
The three of them quickly left Jiupan Mountain, talking as they walked.
Hei Yu introduced himself, "The Purple Heaven Alliance is a powerful force established in the past few hundred years.
Their leader is known as the Purple Heaven Immortal."
"She claims to have come from the future." Qi Yuan was surprised.
He, too, had come from the future.
If the Purple Heaven Immortal had indeed come from the future, it did give him a sense of crisis.
But then he remembered that he was a game player, and there was nothing to fear from an NPC. He calmed down.
"Three hundred years ago, the Blood Lord disappeared. His followers established the Blood Palace and continued to spread his teachings, disseminating the Confining Demon Art throughout the world.
This should have been a great deed for the world! But who would have thought that the Purple Heaven Immortal would suddenly appear and declare that the Blood Lord is the source of all heart demons!" Hei Yu clenched his spear tighter as he spoke.
Bai Luo, the short-skirted girl, said indignantly, "That damned Purple Heaven Immortal! She's clearly trying to fulfill her own ambitions and slander the Blood Lord.
She claims that the Blood Lord is the reincarnation of the source of all demonic beasts, a great demon! And even more shamelessly, she says that if the Blood Lord wasn't filled with guilt, why would he create the Confining Demon Art to benefit the world?"
Hearing this, Qi Yuan felt that the latter half of her statement had a similar sentiment to the saying, "If you didn't bump into it, why are you helping?"
"With the Blood Lord being labeled as a great demon, the Blood Palace became the Demon Palace.
The cultivators of the Purple Heaven Alliance specifically target the Blood Palace.
Moreover, that old hag, the Purple Heaven Immortal, even took possession of the Confining Demon Art and is now distributing it to other races!" Bai Luo said with indignation.
After hearing so much, Qi Yuan understood the general situation.
The Purple Heaven Alliance was eyeing the Confining Demon Art and wanted to take credit for its benefits.
So, they slandered the Blood Lord as a great demon.
"Are you two from the Blood Palace?" Qi Yuan asked, looking at them.
"Yes," Hei Yu hesitated for a moment and nodded in acknowledgment.
"I'm worried about Jin Si Que. I hope she's safe," Qi Yuan said, feeling a bit anxious.
"The situation at the Blood Palace is dire, and they've been forced to retreat to an isolated continent." White Conch spoke with concern.
Qi Yuan, concerned, asked the question that was on his mind, "Is the Golden Canary still in the Blood Palace? How is she doing now?"
Black Feather looked at Qi Yuan with apprehension, "How do you know about Senior Golden Canary? Could it be... that you were also a follower of the Blood Lord?"
The girl, White Conch, widened her eyes as well, "Are you a disciple of the Blood Lord?"
Hearing this, Qi Yuan relaxed a little.
Judging by Black Feather and White Conch's reactions, the Golden Canary was likely still safe and unharmed.
So, everything was still under control.
"Is there a possibility that I am the Blood Lord?" Qi Yuan said.
Black Feather was momentarily stunned by his words.
White Conch quickly interjected, "My lord, this is not a joke you should be making."
"Oh?" Qi Yuan was surprised, their reactions were not what he had expected.
White Conch explained, "The reason the Purple Heaven Immortal has control over the narrative is that she obtained the ultimate treasure of the world... the Destiny Slate."
"The Destiny Slate?" Qi Yuan had never heard of this name before.
"When the Buddha was born, flowers bloomed in abundance, and snow fell in July.
An ultimate treasure, the Destiny Slate, was born alongside the Buddha.
This slate is the ultimate treasure in the mortal realm, and it is said that it can reveal the future and also show the past.
Through the Destiny Slate, the Purple Heaven Immortal learned that the Blood Lord was no longer in the mortal world.
It was this news that emboldened the Purple Heaven Immortal to target the Blood Palace.
It is because the Purple Heaven Alliance possesses the Destiny Slate that they have the upper hand, shamelessly slandering the Blood Lord, claiming that he is a Great Demon!" White Conch's anger grew as she spoke.
Black Feather added, "The Blood Lord exhausted all his energy creating the Demon Sealing Scripture, and his fall is understandable.
When the Destiny Slate revealed the news of the Blood Lord's demise, the Blood Palace held a grand funeral for him."
"I... am not dead yet. Isn't it a bit hasty to hold a funeral for me?" Qi Yuan sighed, then asked, "Where is the Golden Canary?"
"Senior Golden Canary did not attend that funeral. She was too grief-stricken and couldn't accept the fact that the Blood Lord had perished."
"Senior Golden Canary and the elders of the Blood Palace are all at the ends of the earth now."
The ends of the earth, countless miles away from Nine Coils Mountain.
At the very edge of the Windflow Realm.
"These years, the Purple Heaven Alliance has been hunting down the Blood Palace. If it weren't for Shang Yanran's extraordinary strength, capable of rivaling the Purple Heaven Immortal, the Blood Palace would have been destroyed long ago.
But even so, the cultivators of the Blood Palace have been forced to the ends of the earth." White Conch spoke with deep-seated hatred for the Purple Heaven Alliance.
Black Feather continued, "Just three months ago, the Purple Heaven Alliance joined forces with seven major sects to send a coalition army to the ends of the earth, intending to annihilate the Blood Palace!"
Qi Yuan's heart tightened at these words, "Do you have a map? May I take a look?"
"I do." White Conch took out a crumpled map.
Qi Yuan examined it; the map was a bit crude.
However, it was clear enough.
The place where Qi Yuan was currently located was called Nine Coils Mountain, in the far north of this world.
The Purple Heaven Alliance was situated right in the center of the Windflow Realm.
The ends of the earth were in the far south, the southernmost point of this world.
To travel from Nine Coils Mountain to the ends of the earth, one would have to cross the entire Windflow Realm.
A direct path would take them right through the Purple Heaven Alliance.
"Thank you both." After understanding the situation, Qi Yuan felt it was time to leave.
"Here's a small gift for you two." Qi Yuan waved his hand, and a drop of blood-red liquid appeared out of thin air, splitting into two and falling into their hands.
At that moment, Qi Yuan's figure completely disappeared.
Black Feather and White Conch exchanged a glance, both revealing looks of astonishment.
"He's definitely an extraordinary cultivator!"
"Could it be... the Nation Guardian?"
With their doubts, they left Nine Coils Mountain.
About half an hour later, the two returned to a small village.
An angry voice rang out, "You two, running off again!"
An old man with a short stature emerged, his face filled with rage.
Upon seeing the old man, both Black Feather and White Conch showed fear.
This old man was their master.
"Master, we didn't go out to cause trouble. We went to help those in need! Today, we saved one of our Blood Palace members from the hands of a Purple Heaven Alliance cultivator!" White Conch said proudly, sticking out her tongue.
Black Feather remained silent.
Hearing this, the old man's anger subsided a little, "Sigh, how many times have I told you not to go out? If the Purple Heaven Alliance finds out I'm here, you'll never see me again."
"Master, we know. You're a big shot on the Purple Heaven Alliance's most-wanted list. They value you highly!" White Conch agreed.
The old man shrugged upon hearing this, "The Purple Heaven Alliance is blind. When the Blood Lord was giving his teachings, I was among the first hundred to enter Nine Coils Mountain. But on the wanted list, they ranked me 426th. How hateful!"
White Conch sighed helplessly at his words.
This master of theirs was great at everything, except for one thing... showing off.
Almost periodically, he would talk about his glorious past, claiming he was among the first hundred to hear the Blood Lord's teachings.
And every time, he would nervously say, 'Don't tell anyone about this. It's a secret. If the Purple Heaven Alliance finds out, it'll be dangerous.
White Conch thought of something and teased him, "Master, today we met a senior at the foot of Nine Coils Mountain. This senior seemed extraordinary, and he might have also listened to the Blood Lord's teachings with you.
I think this senior's demeanor is even more impressive than yours."
Sure enough, upon hearing this, the old man became displeased, "Impossible! Those ranked higher than me have all gone to the ends of the earth. Who could be closer to the Blood Lord than me?
This person is definitely an imposter! Tell me what he looks like. I'll expose him!"
