Keeping Mortals in Captivity

What are these Demon up to?

Using his Divine Ability, Daoist Xingjian could clearly see the scene below Sage-Proving Mountain.

Most of the mortals and rogue Rogue Cultivators within a radius of eight hundred miles who were unable to escape were captured by the Blood Sea Hall.

Why did you bring us here?

"Demon, I'll fight you to the death!"

"Hmph, you're asking for it."

Several Rogue Cultivators unleashed their Law Treasures in an attempt to resist, but the Blood Sea Hall leader snorted coldly and lashed out with a blood whip, sweeping away the Law Treasures of the Rogue Cultivators.

The blood whip struck the Rogue Cultivator, instantly reducing him to ashes.

The minor leader of the Blood Sea Hall scoffed, "An ant who hasn't even reached the Earth Immortal Realm dares to oppose our Blood Sea Hall? He's just courting death."

The mortals around who witnessed this were all terrified, their faces turning pale, and they dared not resist.

At this moment, a disciple of the Blood Sea Hall approached the Blood Sea Hall leader and whispered something in his ear.

The Blood Sea Hall leader nodded, then, with a slight gathering of his strength, his voice boomed like thunder, echoing in everyone's ears. "Hand over all boys and girls under the age of seven!"

For a moment, the mortals captured alive by the Blood Sea Hall were in an uproar.

The Blood Sea Hall is Demon Sects; their demands for young boys and girls are most likely not for good.

At the signal of the Blood Sea Hall leader, Blood Sea Hall disciples broke into the crowd and forcibly abducted the boys and girls.

"You can't take my child away!"

"No one can stop the Blood Sea Hall from getting what it wants. Die!"

A woman tried to take back her child, but was refined into Blood Pearl by the disciples of the Blood Sea Hall.

The methods employed by the Blood Sea Hall are chilling.

Those who resisted were either killed or refined. One hundred thousand boys and girls were taken to the Main Peak Sage-Proving Mountain by the disciples of the Blood Sea Hall, while the others were driven to other peaks and guarded by the disciples of the Blood Sea Hall.

"Could it be that the Blood Sea Hall intends to refine these 100,000 boys and girls...? This is truly utterly vicious."

Daoist Xingjian had seen many Demons and knew a little about the methods of people in the Demon Sects, so he could roughly guess what was going on.

Some Demon use young boys and girls as ingredients to refine Demon Pills, which is utterly heinous.

"Why doesn't the Blood Sea Hall kill the other mortals, but instead chooses to imprison them? Among these mortals, there are no elderly people, only young men and women. Could it be... that the Blood Sea Hall is keeping mortals as livestock?"

Daoist Xingjian thought of the Blood Sea Hall's purpose, his face turned even more ashen.

The Blood Sea Hall wouldn't raise mortals for no reason. Considering their previous actions, their purpose is obvious—they need more young boys and girls as medicinal ingredients, and the purpose of raising mortals is to continuously obtain them!

"This is outrageous! This is outrageous!"

Daoist Xingjian's expression shifted uncertainly, unsure whether he should take action to destroy the Blood Sea Hall stronghold.

The leaders of the various branches of the Blood Sea Palace vary in strength, and most of them are notorious demons and evil cultivators in the Immortal Realm.

Daoist Xingjian didn't know the level of cultivation of the Demon at this Blood Sea Hall stronghold. If he made a rash move, he might not be able to escape his own fate.

Seeing that 100,000 boys and girls were about to suffer a terrible fate after entering the Sage-Proving Mountain, Daoist Xingjian couldn't bear it. He sighed and summoned the Flying Sword behind him.

A vast Sword Qi descended from the heavens, like a cascading Milky Way. The disciples and Elders of the Blood Sea Hall along the mountain path of the Sage-Proving Mountain were all reduced to ashes by the immense Sword Qi, leaving no trace of their bodies.

Who goes there?!

The Elders and disciples of the Blood Sea Hall, who had occupied Sage-Proving Mountain, were all taken aback. Streaks of blood-red light shot into the sky and arrived above Sage-Proving Mountain, looking warily in the direction from which the Sword Qi had come.

Sage-Proving Mountain is within the sphere of influence of the Taihua Sacred Ground, and there are quite a few righteous Xiuzhenzhe there.

However, in order to prevent the Demon Lord from launching a Demon Venerable attack on Taihua Divine Mountain, the Taihua Sacred Ground withdrew its forces, Sage-Proving Mountain vacant, allowing the Blood Sea Hall to take advantage of the situation.

"What you have done is intolerable to Heaven and Earth. Today, I, this humble Daoist, will act on behalf of Heaven to uphold justice."

"This sword is a sacrifice for all living beings!"

Enraged by the evil deeds of the Blood Sea Hall, Daoist Xingjian unleashed a powerful sword strike.

Daoist Xingjian was originally an unparalleled genius of Sage-Proving Mountain. Because Lu Changsheng had a connection with Sage-Proving Mountain obtained treasures such as the Enlightenment Tea from Taihua Sacred Ground. Daoist Xingjian had already reached the Immortal Emperor Realm cultivation.

"No!"

The Elders and disciples of the Blood Sea Hall, enveloped by the Sword Qi of the Daoist Xingjian, only had time to let out a scream before turning to ashes amidst the overwhelming sword light.

The dazzling sword light, imbued with the Daoist Xingjian's vast True Qi, was not merely intended to annihilate these ordinary Blood Sea Hall Elders and disciples, but was aimed directly at the main hall of the Sage-Proving Mountain.

The Blood Sea Hall stronghold that controls this place and the Blood Sea Hall Demon is supposed to refine 100,000 boys and girls and keep hundreds of millions of people captive is most likely inside.

"Master, I'm sorry."

Daoist Xingjian could foresee that this sword strike would destroy the main hall of Sage-Proving Mountain.

But there's nothing we can do about it.

Suddenly, a monstrous sea of blood surged forth from the main hall of Sage-Proving Mountain, forming a giant blood cocoon that surrounded the hall.

The Sword Qi struck the blood cocoon, and foul-smelling blood splattered everywhere.

The Sword Qi could not break through the crimson Barrier and gradually dissipated.

"Not good..."

Seeing his all-out sword strike effortlessly neutralized by his opponent, Daoist Xingjian was drenched in sweat.

The Demon who occupied the Blood Sea Hall's main hall was at least at the God King Realm!

Without hesitation, Daoist Xingjian Human-Sword Unity, transforming into a streak of light and fleeing towards the Taihua Sacred Ground.

"You think you can just come and go as you please before me?"

From within the blood cocoon, a blood-red shadow burst forth, transforming into a crimson lightning bolt, swiftly pursuing Daoist Xingjian.

Daoist Xingjian quickly took out Talisman, hoping to use its power to escape.

Clang!

The blood bell rang, and an invisible mental attack surged forth!

Daoist Xingjian's mind wavered, and he saw mountains of corpses and seas of blood before his eyes, as if he were in Purgatory.

"Puff!"

Just as Daoist Xingjian's mind was in turmoil, Xueying's Blood Sword pierced through Daoist Xingjian's chest, causing Daoist Xingjian to cough up a mouthful of bright red blood, his face turning ashen...

In the Taihua Sacred Ground, Qingyangzi, the Sect Master the Sage-Proving Mountain sect, suddenly felt uneasy.

"My Disciple has been down the mountain for quite some time now, investigating the movements of the Blood Sea Hall and the Evil Extremity Sect. He hasn't returned yet. Could something have happened to him?"

Qingyangzi became increasingly uneasy, so he took the initiative to visit the Deputy Sacred Lord, Lin Qinghan.

"The Holy Land heard that a large number of the Blood Sea Hall members had gathered at Sage-Proving Mountain, so it sent my disciple to investigate what had happened. Now my Disciple has not returned on time, and I fear he has met with misfortune. I implore the Holy Land to send an expert to rescue him."

"Many experts from the Holy Land are currently out on the move. Please wait a moment while I see who will be assigned."

Lin Qinghan Liu Mei slightly.

Lin Xuantong, along with the Household Ancestor Lin and the Jiang Clan Ancestor, went to the Imperishable Immortal Dynasty, while Lu Changsheng, Shi Niandao, Zhu Xinguang, three powerful warriors, went to the Demon-Suppressing Pass and then traveled to Taichu Mountain to rest.

Lin Shiyu and her two Immortality Realm disciples are required to remain at the Taihua Sacred Ground and cannot easily descend the mountain.

If even the Daoist Xingjian, a powerful Immortal Emperor Realm, couldn't escape, it shows that the Blood Sea Hall Demon who occupied the Sage-Proving Mountain was no pushover.

"This gang of Demon is entrenched on Sage-Proving Mountain; they must have something in mind. I'll lead a team to investigate."

Lin Xuanshuang appeared.
