Arrival at the Inheritance Hall
The two-headed tiger -Blood Beast, possessing combat power at the Nascent Soul Early Stage realm, was instantly killed by Yang Tianyou and his companions.
Upon death, the Blood Beast's massive body instantly disintegrated into the Blood River, leaving only a shattered Blood Core in its place.
"Quickly, guided by Zhiming's Divine Sense, loot all the resources on the Island, then we'll evacuate!" Yang Tianyou gave the order, and everyone split up to carry out their tasks.
Five people were assigned to five areas, with Yang Tianyou himself in charge of the central area.
He carefully picked the three Nine-Leaf Blood Spirit Grass, roots and all, and placed them into a specially made jade bottle in the Lineage's Agriculture Hall. Then, guided by Zhiming's Divine Sense, he arrived at a cave eight hundred feet away.
With a flash, he entered.
Not long after, Yang Tianyou returned with a big smile on his face, holding a bottle of light red, viscous liquid in his hand.
This is a Fourth-Tier Lower-Grade Spirit Material, Blood Tassel Stone Marrow Liquid, which is quite precious. Especially for Body Cultivators, it can greatly enhance the strength and quantity of Blood Qi in the body, solidify the foundation, and temper the Fleshly Body.
In addition, Blood Tassel Stone Marrow Liquid can also be used for Alchemy. It is the main ingredient in many Wound-Healing Pills and is considered to be of high value among Spirit Materials of the same grade.
Inside the cave, Yang Tianyou obtained two portions of Blood Tassel Stone Marrow Liquid, whose value was no less than that of the three Nine-Leaf Blood Spirit Grass.
With Zhiming's guidance, the five members of the Yang Household quickly plundered all the resources on the Island, and then, under the cover of the Illusion God Pearl, they quickly left in Flying Shuttle.
Not long after they left, a young cultivator with sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes, dressed in a light blue robe with cloud patterns, descended on the Island.
Looking at the clearly visible signs of battle on the Island, and the lingering aura of the dead two-headed tiger -Blood Beast, the young cultivator's gaze turned solemn. He thought to himself, "Two Nascent Soul cultivators joined forces to instantly kill a Nascent Soul Blood Beast; their strength is terrifying..."
The speculations made by the Nascent Soul Cultivators of the Cloudwater Sect were unknown to Yang Tianyou and the others.
They were sitting around inside the Flying Shuttle, taking stock of the harvest on the Island, and everyone's face was beaming with joy.
Among these dazzling harvests, there were four different Fourth Tier Spirit Items.
These are the Nine-Leaf Blood Spirit Grass, Blood Tassel Stone Marrow Liquid, Bloodlight Black Iron, and Blood Refining Flower. Each of these Spirit Items is extremely valuable and can fetch a high price on the market.
The four items combined brought the Yang Household an income of approximately 90,000 Middle-Grade Spirit Stones.
Besides the most precious Fourth Tier Spirit Items, there are even more Third Tier and Tier 2 Spirit Items, which together can be worth more than 30,000 Middle-Grade Spirit Stones.
If we add the most precious Nascent Soul Blood Core, the Yang Household has obtained various Spirit Items on this Island, equivalent to 160,000 Middle-Grade Spirit Stones.
"As expected of the Blood River Secret Realm, although this semi-independent Secret Realm cannot be refined by humans, its resources are far richer than those of an independent Secret Realm. This Island alone has yielded us 160,000 Middle-Grade Spirit Stones, equivalent to more than ten years of our Lineage's net income," Yang Tianyou said with great emotion.
Yunhua smiled and reminded her, "Speaking of which, we really owe a debt to Zhiming. If it weren't for its extraordinary Detection abilities, we would have missed a lot of Spirit Items. Take that Bloodlight Black Iron, for example, buried hundreds of feet underground. How could an ordinary person possibly dig three feet into the ground to find it?"
"Madam is right. Bringing Zhiming out this time was a wise decision," Yang Tianyou said with a smile, gently stroking Zhiming's smooth, silky black fur with his right hand.
At this moment, Yang Danglong laughed and said, "Tianyou, you and your wife should keep the spoils from the Secret Realm for now. When you Secret Realm, just give us a little bit to appease the White Cloud Sect."
Yang Tianxue and Wang Shan nodded slowly, acknowledging the method.
The dangers of the Blood River Secret Realm are obvious to all. Their strength is far inferior to that of Yang Tianyou and his wife, and they may encounter danger at any time.
Upon hearing this, Yang Tianyou nodded slightly and smiled, "Then I will give you some of the spoils when we leave the Secret Realm."
However, we cannot simply deal with the White Cloud Sect as Thirteenth Granduncle suggested.
Instead, they should contribute more resources to demonstrate the capabilities of the Hidden Dragon Sect to the higher-ups of the White Cloud Sect, thereby garnering more support and facilitating the sect's development.
"Okay, we'll do it your way!" Yang Danglong readily nodded.
Yang Tianyou turned to look at Wang Shan and asked, "Have you mastered the Secret Method of the Myriad Forms Sect?"
"I'm already quite proficient. I tested it on the way here and can sense the location of the Inheritance Hall. However, the space in the Blood River Secret Realm is distorted right now, and my sense of direction is blurry. I only have a general location. I estimate that I need to get close enough to pinpoint the exact location!" Wang Shan said with a hint of helplessness.
Upon hearing this, Yang Tianyou smiled faintly and said, "It's alright, as long as we can sense it, we have plenty of time to search slowly."
"It's a pity that this Secret Method requires a match with my true Spiritual Qi to be used. Otherwise, if I taught it to you all, the accuracy would be much better if several of you sensed it together!"
Upon hearing his words, a barely perceptible glint appeared in Yang Tianyou's eyes.
Others cannot imitate the Spiritual Qi, but he can, though he needs to wait until the third page of the Jade Register Heavenly Book is opened.
Through the vague information provided by the Heavenly Book, Yang Tianyou learned that after turning the third page, his control over the Jade Register Heavenly Book would increase dramatically.
No longer in a passive position, but able to actively use some of the heaven-defying abilities of the Heavenly Books to do many incredible things.
Suppressing the restless thoughts in his mind, Yang Tianyou instructed Wang Shan to use Secret Method to sense the location of the Myriad Forms Sect's Inheritance Hall.
A moment later, the Flying Shuttle shuddered slightly, shifting its direction abruptly, and under the cover of the Illusion God Pearl, it began to dive downwards into the Blood River.
On a certain Island, a handsome young man gently tossed the Blood Core in his hand, a sinister smile playing on his lips.
"The second Inheritance Hall, I'm really looking forward to it..."
The echo lingered, and his figure vanished without a trace, along with the Cloaked Man had always followed the boy closely.
The Blood River can be divided into three levels from top to bottom.
Surface layer, middle layer, bottom layer.
The deeper you go, the greater the danger.
At the lower levels, even Spirit Transformation cultivators face the risk of perishing.
Previously, Yang Tianyou and his group of five had always operated in the surface layer of the Blood River.
Following Wang Shan's directions, they were rapidly advancing towards the middle level.
The deeper they ventured, the more intense the crimson became. An hour later, they entered the middle level.
Upon arriving here, even with Yang Tianyou's Great White Gold Eyes, he could only see the scenery within ten miles ahead.
Beyond that, all that remained was a hazy, blood-red blur, and nothing could be clearly seen.
In addition, the corrosiveness of the Blood River water began to intensify suddenly, and the Law Power consumed by the Flying Shuttle increased sharply.
"No wonder most cultivators are unwilling to venture into the depths of the Blood River. With such intense corrosiveness, Qi Refining cultivator's protective aura would likely be completely eroded in less than ten breaths."
Foundation Establishment Cultivators can endure longer, but they still need to return to the surface to recuperate every so often.
As Yunhua spoke, he extended a wisp of his Law Power, carefully sensing the Blood River water outside.
"Not only that, but the Blood River can even corrode the soul at its lowest level, making it incredibly terrifying." Wang Shan's gaze was solemn.
"The location of the Inheritance Hall that you sensed shouldn't be at the bottom of the Blood River, right?" Yang Danglong asked, frowning.
Wang Shan shrugged helplessly and said, "I don't know, but judging from the current trend, we're almost at the bottom, if not the very bottom. We need to be prepared."
"Leaving aside the dangers posed by the Blood River itself, the number and strength of the Blood River Blood Beasts at its bottom far surpass those on the surface. There are even Spirit Transformation Blood Beasts lurking there. Even with Nineteenth Uncle and Aunt Nineteen, we are no match for such beings!"
Upon hearing his words, the other four members of the Yang Household became serious, putting on high alert to prepare for any possible unforeseen events.
The Flying Shuttle continued to descend, the concentration of the Blood River water gradually increasing, and the resistance becoming greater and greater.
Yang Tianyou's field of vision has shrunk from ten miles to five miles, and it continues to decrease.
Fortunately, although Zhiming's Detection ability was also suppressed, it was still able to maintain a Detection range of 400 miles due to its strong bloodline, which was much stronger than that of Spirit Transformation cultivator.
In the lower reaches of the Blood River, the strength of one's Detection abilities directly affects one's survival ability.
Because of Zhiming's presence, the five members of the Yang Household avoided countless dangers, making him a truly remarkable contributor.
"A Spirit Transformation Blood Beast is charging straight at us from 300 miles ahead! Get out of the way!" Zhiming suddenly shouted.
Yang Tianyou nodded as he poured his abundant Law Power into the Flying Shuttle, then turned and sped away.
Somewhere between the bottom and middle layers of the Blood River, an exceptionally vast Island, shrouded in thick blood mist, floats on the crimson waters.
A thin, pale red protective shield covered the Island, also isolating it from the surging, Blood River outside.
The latter's terrifying corrosiveness had absolutely no effect on this seemingly fragile shield.
There's always something that can subdue something else; that's just how it is.
Call out!!
The Flying Shuttle crashed through the protective shield and entered the Island.
With a flash of light, the Flying Shuttle disappeared, and Yang Tianyou and his four companions reappeared in the same spot.
"Is this the Island where the Inheritance Hall is located?" Yang Danglong asked.
"That's right, according to my senses, this is the place!" Wang Shan said excitedly.
"Although this Island doesn't have the corrosive power of the Blood River, the suppressive force is much stronger. My Divine Sense can only extend a hundred feet outside my body," Yunhua said, her brows furrowed.
"It must be because of this blood mist." Yang Tianyou examined the blood-red mist before him, his expression grave.
"Be careful, Zhiming, Detection the surroundings. Wang Shan, point out the direction. Let's proceed slowly and patiently. I can sense that there are quite a few powerful Blood Beasts inhabiting the interior of this Island."
"Understood!" Everyone nodded, and then, led by Zhiming and Wang Shan, they slowly made their way into the interior of the Island.
Upon arriving at the Island, Zhiming's Detection range was also reduced to about a hundred miles. Such a short distance left them with very little time to react, so they had to be on high alert.
A quarter of an hour later, Zhiming issued a warning: a Spirit Transformation Blood Beast was sleeping a hundred miles ahead.
Yang Tianyou and his group of five quickly turned around, but before they had gone far, another Blood Beast at the Nascent Soul Late Stage blocked their way.
They continued to turn, only to find that the deeper they went, the more Blood Beasts they encountered.
Along the way, there were many Golden Core Blood Beasts and quite a few Nascent Soul Blood Beasts, but fortunately, they only encountered one Spirit Transformation Blood Beast.
Fortunately, the Blood Beast's perception ability was not strong, and the Yang Household had the Illusion God Pearl and the Zhiming double insurance, so they arrived at the location of the Myriad Forms Sect's Inheritance Hall very smoothly.
