Chapter 516: I Take Pride in Being a Disciple of the Dao Ancestor, Burying a God

Upon hearing the reason, Blood Demon was shocked to his core. He never expected that the appearance of Evergreen Immortal would bring about such a tremendous opportunity for him.

However, due to his divine soul not meeting the requirements, he was about to miss this chance.

But there was still a glimmer of hope. As long as he could improve his divine soul to the required state within a month, he could still seize this opportunity!

"Things have come to this point, and I won't hide it from you anymore," Heavenly Purple said. "Because you were influenced by that person, you fell into a state of delirium and confusion. However, your divine soul has also undergone some changes.

"I, too, have been searching for a suitable candidate, and now this opportunity presents itself to you. Do you understand?"

Heavenly Purple sighed.

"Senior, I understand!" Blood Demon nodded firmly.

"Take this bottle of pills. Take one pill every three days. If, within a month, your divine soul can meet the requirements, you will still be able to grasp this opportunity!" Heavenly Purple said solemnly as he handed a bottle of pills to Blood Demon.

"Yes, Senior. I will not let you down!" Blood Demon vowed solemnly.

"Good. Evergreen Immortal will come again in a month. Seize this chance well!" Heavenly Purple said, pointing to the cauldron. "If you have perseverance, stay inside the cauldron. It will help you improve faster."

Not a moment should be wasted for Blood Demon to improve!

"Yes, Senior!" Without hesitation, Blood Demon jumped into the cauldron.

Heavenly Purple covered the cauldron and then revealed a mischievous smile as he turned to leave.

Blood Demon endured the pain as if he were being sliced by thousands of knives, but his heart burned with determination. "I must seize this opportunity. Enhancing my divine soul is not difficult for me. This blood soul is indeed a bit weak, and it's time to strengthen it."

The Dao Ancestor passed down a great technique, and those who are fated to learn it shall be taught. Thus, the disciples of the Dao Ancestor are always on the lookout for those with the right destiny to impart this technique to.

There are certain requirements for the divine soul when cultivating this great technique.

Once one starts cultivating this technique, it means that they have become a disciple of the Dao Ancestor. Moreover, this technique is so powerful that it can allow one to cultivate directly to the Establishment of Dao realm without any bottlenecks.

And even beyond the Establishment of Dao realm, there is no end to one's cultivation journey.

What a tremendous opportunity this was! How could Blood Demon let it slip away? He would do everything in his power to seize it.

This was his only chance to surpass Tai Cang and that person from the Non-Transformation Temple.

Once he became an Establishment of Dao realm expert, or even surpassed that realm, that person from the Non-Transformation Temple would have to kneel and bow down to him.

At this moment, Blood Demon's mind was filled with aspirations of one day sitting high on the throne of the Non-Transformation Temple, with that arrogant fellow groveling below, flattering and bowing to him.

"Just you wait, when I, Blood Demon, rise to power, I'll show you ignorant frogs the true strength of a disciple of the Dao Ancestor!"

In this moment, Blood Demon saw the strong experts of the Non-Transformation Temple as nothing but frogs at the bottom of a well!

At this moment, Blood Demon was convinced that he would become a disciple of the Dao Ancestor!

I take pride in being a disciple of the Dao Ancestor!!

...

In a distant land, far removed from the Tai Cang realm, there existed a land of non-transformation. In this ancient and vast land, a palace stood, weathered by time, its grandeur imposing.

Four colossal and ferocious beasts crouched at the front, back, and sides of the temple, their auras fierce and their eyes sharp as they guarded the temple.

They were the true spirits of the Non-Transformation Temple, and their strength surpassed that of the little heaven realm masters.

The temple, ancient and grand, stood silently in this land of non-transformation, with faint traces of law flowing around it.

Within a radius of tens of thousands of miles from the temple, not a single true spirit or non-transformation spirit beast dared to approach.

At this moment, the temple was slowly moving, stirring up the non-transformation energy and violent spiritual energy that surged like a tidal wave, pouring into the temple.

In a certain part of the temple, a blood pool was bubbling, and the blood within rippled with the bursting of the bubbles.

Gurgle!

The blood in the pool began to contract, and a hideous figure with fangs protruding from the corners of his mouth and a sinister gaze emerged from beneath the blood pool.

The blood flowed into his body, and his ferocious appearance gradually faded, transforming him into a middle-aged man.

At this moment, his sinister eyes shone with excitement and fanaticism.

"Dao Ancestor? What a great opportunity! I must seize it. As for the matters in the Tai Cang realm, there's no need to worry about them anymore," Blood Demon said, receiving the consciousness of his child soul, his entire being thrilled.

He had planned for a long time to cultivate a child soul for countless years, relying on the seeds from back then to descend upon the Tai Cang realm. His goal was to obtain a portion of the origin of the Tai Cang realm in the final moments and to find the backup plan laid by Tai Cang to prevent the realm from exploding and ruining the schemes of the Non-Transformation Temple.

However, an unexpected event occurred. The child soul descended into an unknown realm and took residence in someone else's body.

And the strength of this realm far exceeded his imagination.

In the face of the Dao Ancestor, that person from the Non-Transformation Temple was no better than an ant.

No matter what, he couldn't let this opportunity slip by!

"Enhancing the divine soul?"

Blood Demon took a deep breath. The blood in the blood pool had already entered his body, and he closed his eyes slightly, connecting with his child soul.

Using the child soul as a guide, he should be able to impart the power of his divine soul.

Through this connection, he could feel the pain the child soul was enduring, and even experience it as if it were his own. Far from being discouraged, Blood Demon was even more convinced that this was a test, a trial set by a strong preceptor to weed out the weak.

Just as he himself set conditions for those who wished to become his disciples, so too did the strong preceptors of the world.

"The strong have much in common."

With a deep breath, Blood Demon began to activate his secret art, using the child soul as a conduit to transmit the power of his divine soul.

It was no easy task to transmit his divine soul's power, not just to the distant and unknown Great Wilderness Heaven, but even to the Tai Cang Heaven. The pressure on his divine soul would be immense.

Thus, the amount of divine soul power he could transmit at once would necessarily be small.

"But it's enough!"

Blood Demon was convinced that as long as he transmitted his divine soul power every day, slowly but surely strengthening the child soul, he would be able to meet the required standards within the agreed-upon timeframe.

Hum!

The blood light rippled slightly, sending out a circle of ripples, and a strand of divine soul power was transmitted, guided by the child soul.

At this moment, Blood Demon felt immense pressure. As the strand of divine soul power traveled further, it weakened, and by the end, he had even lost his connection to it. It was only when the child soul received the power that he was sure it had been a success.

However, through the child soul's sensation, Blood Demon realized that only less than one-tenth of the transmitted divine soul power had been received.

"Where exactly is the Great Wilderness Heaven? The transmission of divine soul power consumes so much," Blood Demon marveled inwardly.

Only one-tenth of the divine soul power had been received by the child soul.

"Continue!"

Blood Demon was not discouraged. Although the child soul could only receive one-tenth each time, the accumulation over time would be enough to strengthen it to the required level.

"At most, it can only be enhanced threefold. Otherwise, the child soul's origin will not be able to withstand it, and it will also be easier to leak, exposing our efforts."

Blood Demon thought to himself. Even if he could only enhance it threefold, it would still be enough to meet the conditions.

Far away, in the Non-Transformation Temple, as Blood Demon transmitted his divine soul power, Soling Xu had already returned to Qinghua City.

After explaining her plan to pit Blood Demon to her master, she said, "Master, I'm going to capture the other part of Blood Extremity's soul and see if I can create a pill that replicates the Purple Light of Creation."

"Go ahead."

Li Xuan nodded, but added, "Illusions can sometimes be very useful. They can confuse one's perception, consciousness, and thoughts."

Soling Xu paused, deep in thought. "But what kind of illusion can bewitch Blood Demon?"

Li Xuan smiled and said suggestively, "When the inner and outer selves are in harmony, one's cognition and consciousness can naturally be altered."

A flash of insight lit up Soling Xu's eyes, and she exclaimed, "Thank you, Master! I think I have an idea. I'll discuss a feasible approach with Tianzi."

Li Xuan nodded and looked up at the sky. Blood Demon was transmitting his divine soul power, using the child soul as a guide and bypassing the rules of the Tai Cang Heaven, but he couldn't hide it from Li Xuan.

Of course, he couldn't hide it from Tianzi either.

After bidding farewell to her master, Soling Xu set out for the Taikun Realm, her first time leaving Qinghua Realm since arriving in the Divine Realm.

"Senior sister, are you going to the Taikun Realm?"

After his breakthrough, Jiang Buling had heard that Soling Xu was planning to go to the Taikun Realm to capture the remaining fragment of Blood Extremity's soul, so he came to find her.

"I'm familiar with the Taikun Realm. Let me accompany you there, senior sister."

"Then I'll have to trouble you, junior brother."

Soling Xu happily nodded in agreement.

After bidding farewell to their master, Soling Xu and Jiang Buling set off for the Taikun Realm to capture the remaining fragment of Blood Extremity's soul.

Along the way, they passed through the Nine Mountains Realm.

Red Cat scurried over, eager to please, and presented various divine medicines he had collected.

"You're quite the big shot now, Red Cat."

Soling Xu ruffled Red Cat's head affectionately.

"Here, take this!"

She gave Red Cat several bottles of pills. "These should help enhance the strength of your demon soldiers and generals."

As they traveled through the Nine Mountains Realm and made their way to the Taikun Realm, Jiang Buling couldn't help but marvel at how much the Divine Realm had changed; it was no longer the place it used to be.

Tai Kun Realm, one of the grand realms of the Divine Realm, was originally only partially controlled by the Tai Kun Jiang family. However, with the arrival of the Supreme Lord from the Dao Realm, all the forces in the Tai Kun Realm had now pledged their allegiance to the Jiang family!

Soling Xu and Jiang Buling arrived at the Tai Kun Realm and began their search for the fragment of Blood Extremity's soul, guided by the location provided by Xue Ji.

The place where Blood Extremity had once been imprisoned was in the wilderness of the Tai Kun Realm, but the original desolate land had changed due to the fluctuations in the heavens.

The wilderness was no longer barren, as vegetation and trees now grew there, among which were spirit herbs.

With the emergence of these spirit herbs, lower-realm warriors from the Tai Kun Realm began to venture into the once-desolate land in search of them, and the area gradually became bustling.

Eventually, a small city was established.

"It should be somewhere in this direction. Even with the changes in the landscape, it shouldn't be too far off. The fragment of Blood Extremity's soul is hidden extremely well and may have already freed itself from its restraints."

Soling Xu gazed into the distance and said.

"The fact that the Jiang family's Supreme Lord hasn't been able to find Blood Extremity's soul fragment means that it has likely escaped its bindings and is hiding," Jiang Buling added with a smile.

"Don't worry, Junior Brother. As long as that soul fragment is still here, it won't be difficult to find it. It will just take some time. With your abilities, there's no way a mere soul fragment can escape your detection." Soling Xu replied confidently.

"Senior Sister, you underestimate me. Although I may not engage in battles often, my eyes are sharp. Blood Extremity's soul fragment won't be able to hide from my Little Heavenly Dao Eye." Jiang Buling said with a playful smile.

As they continued on their way, they occasionally encountered some warriors who were out gathering spirit herbs.

"That's a Divine Sovereign Realm warrior."

Soling Xu pointed towards a distant figure flying by.

"Looks like the Jiang family's Supreme Lord is getting anxious. He's now deploying Divine Sovereign Realm warriors to search for Blood Extremity," Jiang Buling commented.

As they pressed on, they were getting closer to the place where Blood Extremity had been hiding.

Suddenly, a figure descended in front of them.

The newcomer was a Divine Sovereign Realm warrior, holding a folding fan and dressed in white. He had a fair complexion, no beard, and a somewhat handsome appearance, though he gave off the impression of someone who indulged in excessive pleasures.

At that moment, his eyes widened with surprise as he fixed his gaze on Soling Xu, his expression growing more delighted by the second, his Adam's apple bobbing up and down.

"I am the White-Robed Divine Lord from the Dao Realm. Fair lady, would you care to accompany me back to the Dao Realm?" The White-Robed Divine Lord asked with a casual demeanor, his eyes fixed on Soling Xu without even blinking.

Soling Xu's expression turned gloomy as she retorted, "Scram!"

"My, my, such a feisty lady. I like it, I like it very much. I, the White-Robed Divine Lord, wander the Dao Realm and have met countless beauties, but none can compare to you.

"Your aura is like the lush vitality of nature, like the pure and untouched morning dew. It's truly remarkable, the likes of which I've never seen before. Now that we've crossed paths, fair lady, won't you accompany me..."

The White-Robed Divine Lord snapped his fan shut, his face still wearing a brilliant smile as he gazed at Soling Xu, his delight growing with each passing moment, his Adam's apple bobbing uncontrollably.

However, before he could finish his sentence, Soling Xu had already grabbed a shovel and charged towards him.

"Granny hasn't buried anyone in a long time. Today, I'll bury a Divine Lord to scratch that itch!"

Clang!

Before the White-Robed Divine Lord could react, the shovel had already connected with his head, sending him tumbling to the ground, his head ringing.

"You..."

The White-Robed Divine Lord was shocked. He had never expected to encounter such resistance!

Soling Xu brought the shovel down on his head again, then started digging frantically, creating a large pit in the ground.

The speed and skill with which she dug left Jiang Buling staring in astonishment.

"So you're a Divine Lord, huh? Well, today's your burial day!"

Soling Xu grabbed the White-Robed Divine Lord and tossed him into the pit.

The White-Robed Divine Lord shook his head, trying to clear the dizziness, and just as he lifted his head, the shovel came down on it again.

He wanted to resist, but with his soul shaking, he couldn't muster any resistance.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

Soling Xu alternated between shoveling dirt into the pit and striking the White-Robed Divine Lord with the shovel. With each scoop of dirt, the White-Robed Divine Lord screamed in agony as if a part of his soul was being stripped away and scattered into the heavens!

At this moment, he panicked, wanting to beg for mercy, but he had no opportunity to do so.

The shovel kept striking, and dirt kept pouring in, his soul continuing to be stripped away. All he could do was scream; he couldn't utter any other sounds.
