Chapter 137: Demon Sect! Blood Lake! Heart Wheel!

---

At the edge of a towering mountain range in the Southern Region.

"Hurry up! Faster! If we delay Meditator Yinzi's important task, we'll all be dead!"

"We're still short by five hundred commoners' blood! Go to the nearby village and kill another batch!"

"It's almost done; the earth meridian imprint is about to condense and appear."

More than a hundred black-clad figures, their faces concealed, gathered at this location.

In front of them, a vast aura of blood and evil qi spread out, with thousands of commoner corpses lying around.

The flowing blood formed a blood lake, emitting an overwhelming stench of blood.

"Lord Demon Flame, isn't our commotion a bit too big?"

"The Su family is searching for us everywhere. If they find us, we're done for."

A Demon Sect disciple kept glancing around, uneasy.

"Hmph, what are you afraid of?"

Demon Flame sneered, "This place has been sealed by Yinzi. Even a Great Sage passing by wouldn't be able to detect us."

"Unless Su Wenlin and Su Nan intervene, but they would have to know we're here first."

"The celestial secrets here are concealed by the Demon Lord. No one can find us unless they use the Spirit Divination technique."

The disciple breathed a sigh of relief.

He looked up at the blood lake, where a young man enveloped in surging demonic qi was performing hand seals, with black imprints continuously descending.

As the imprints merged, the blood lake boiled violently, and a heavy, pale yellow imprint slowly emerged from its depths.

"Lord Demon Flame, this is a special period. Why does Yinzi insist on coming here to condense the earth meridian imprint?"

After a long while, the disciple asked, puzzled.

The Demon Sect possessed an unparalleled technique that allowed them to harness the earth's meridians, traveling thousands of miles in an instant.

This was why the Demon Sect remained active despite the Su family's comprehensive blockade.

However, the conditions for harnessing the earth's meridians were very strict.

One had to condense an earth meridian imprint, and this imprint could only be used once.

Moreover, the direction the imprint could take was limited to the endpoint of the meridian it was condensed from, and nowhere else.

He couldn't understand why Yinzi was making such a fuss to condense the earth meridian imprint here.

Where did this meridian lead to?

"The endpoint of this meridian leads to the demon race,"

Demon Flame looked in the direction of the Small Immortal Sect and sneered,

"The Heavenly Demon Pool will open in two months. Our Demon Sect doesn't have the qualifications to go there."

"But that's not a problem. The Demon Lord has already sent people to investigate the meridian leading to the Heavenly Demon Pool."

"Once the Heavenly Demon Pool opens, Yinzi can use the earth meridian imprint to appear directly beneath it."

As he spoke, a mocking expression appeared in Demon Flame's eyes,

"At that time, Yinzi can quietly take a large amount of divine substances from the Heavenly Demon Pool, and the demon race will certainly be enraged."

"But there will be no one from our Demon Sect at the Heavenly Demon Pool, only disciples of the Small Immortal Sect!"

The disciple's eyes lit up.

What a clever plan! Not only would they get what they wanted, but they would also frame the Small Immortal Sect, achieving two goals with one action!

But then he frowned and asked,

"Lord Demon Flame, this technique of harnessing the earth meridian can only go one way, not return. How will Yinzi leave the demon race?"

Demon Flame looked at the disciple with exasperation, saying,

"How can you be so stupid? Yinzi has more than one earth meridian imprint. He can use another one to return."

The disciple chuckled sheepishly, realizing he had forgotten that.

"Then, does this meridian's endpoint lead to the demon race's Heavenly Demon Pool?"

He licked his lips, thinking that if possible, he would like to follow Yinzi and benefit from it.

The Heavenly Demon Pool, after all, could enhance one's cultivation potential.

"That meridian has already been imprinted."

Demon Flame looked at the pale yellow imprint in the depths of the blood lake and smiled,

"Yinzi is already at the peak of the Divine Body realm and is about to enter the Divine Spirit realm. He is in dire need of a high-quality spirit seed."

"If there's any place in the world with the most spirit seeds, it's undoubtedly the demon race."

"The Demon Lord went to the demon race when he was young and knows the location of a spirit elf secret realm."

"That place has flawless-level spirit seeds!"

The disciple was stunned for a moment, then his eyes burned with excitement.

The spirit elves were a unique and mystical race different from the demon race.

Most of them were formed from mountains, stones, grass, and trees, with their own distinct community, separate from the demon race.

These spirit elves were natural-born children of nature, possessing a vast amount of celestial treasures.

A spirit elf secret realm represented boundless resources and wealth!

"Does this earth meridian imprint lead to that spirit elf secret realm?"

"Does this earth meridian imprint lead to that spirit elf secret realm?"

---

"Of course."

Demon Flame laughed out loud, "Once Yinzi takes the Heavenly Demon Pool, he will go directly to the spirit elf secret realm!"

"Flawless spirit seeds! Such treasures of the heavens, combined with Yinzi's terrifying talent, will make him unbeatable at his cultivation level!"

The disciple's heart burned with enthusiasm as he looked at the young man above the blood lake, filled with reverence:

"Even a mere avatar of Yinzi can condense an earth meridian imprint. I wonder how powerful Yinzi's true body must be."

Demon Flame glanced at the disciple, "This place is safe, but it's too close to the Small Immortal Sect."

"Haven't you realized Yinzi's caution and wisdom by now?"

The disciple nodded in admiration.

Indeed, since Yinzi's appearance, even the Demon Lord had stopped worrying.

Yinzi handled all the affairs of the Demon Sect, which was why they had remained active despite the Su family's comprehensive blockade.

Boom!

Just as the two were chatting, a brilliant pale yellow imprint slowly rose from the lake's surface.

The pure earth qi spread, and the overwhelming heaviness made everyone feel their bodies sink.

Demon Flame and the disciple turned their heads, their faces instantly showing joy.

"It's almost done!"

---

"Obstructed by a malevolent aura?"

"The fortune teller, we're halfway through the journey. Where's the malevolent aura you talked about?"

"You were so off, making me excited for nothing."

Wu Yong lay in the carriage, a blade of grass in his mouth, and glanced at Xuan Qingzi indifferently.

Su Changqing sighed helplessly.

Wu Yong was quite resentful and had been arguing with Xuan Qingzi several times along the way.

Xuan Qingzi, however, remained calm and smiled lightly:

"My divination is never wrong."

His simple tone carried an unshakable confidence.

This left Lao Sun and Wu Yong marveling, wondering where Xuan Qingzi had learned his skills.

"Huh?"

At that moment, Lao Sun suddenly sniffed the air and frowned, "Do you smell a scent of blood?"

Su Changqing, Wu Yong, and Xuan Qingzi all shook their heads, not sensing anything amiss.

Fubo, though silent, kept his eyes on the surroundings.

He had smelled it a quarter of an hour ago but couldn't find the source.

"Strange."

Lao Sun rose into the air, surveying a hundred miles around, but found nothing.

"Is there a barrier?"

"But what barrier could even hide from a Sage?"

Lao Sun frowned in thought, unaware that Fubo was doing the same.

Not even a Great Sage could detect it.

Apart from the faint scent of blood, everything seemed normal.

"Obstructed by a malevolent aura."

Xuan Qingzi looked around and calmly said, "But we can't seem to find it."

"Is there really something?"

Wu Yong was startled and sat up.

But like the others, he found nothing.

"Barrier or illusionary array?"

Su Changqing pondered for a moment and said uncertainly, "Let me try."

In the past, he might not have had a solution.

But with the Heart Wheel·Pierce Delusion, he could see through all illusions, perhaps discovering something.

Wu Yong and Lao Sun shook their heads and laughed.

If even a Sage couldn't find it, how could Su Changqing?

"Heart Wheel!"

Su Changqing took a deep breath, and a sacred golden wheel suddenly appeared within him as he made the hand seals.

Golden light surged from his fingertips and swept over his eyes.

Instantly, two slowly rotating sacred golden wheels appeared deep in his eyes!

Golden light flooded Su Changqing's vision, making the world seem different.

Clear, transparent, even the finest dust was visible.

All illusions in the world would be shattered by the golden wheels!

Su Changqing looked around but found nothing unusual. He then said:

"Daoist, can you help me go up?"

Xuan Qingzi didn't say much, and with a wave of his sleeve, spiritual energy surged, carrying Su Changqing into the sky.

As his vision expanded, Su Changqing's face suddenly changed!

"Mountain of corpses... sea of blood!"
