Treasure Secured

The black, flowing natural treasure that Li Xunhuan forcibly removed became even more ferocious and violent after leaving the Blood Spirit's body, struggling wildly as if it wanted to return to the Blood Spirit's body without any restraint.

Li Xunhuan pointed with his right hand, and several illusory flying knives were enveloped by a black fluid, isolating them from everything. He then extended his right hand, and the items returned to Li Xunhuan's hand.

Looking at this thing, Li Xunhuan weighed it in his right hand. He had never seen anything like it before. It was intelligent and alive, but he couldn't communicate with it. Or rather, this thing was too ferocious, so even if he tried to communicate with it, it would be useless.

As for why this thing wants to return to the Blood Spirit, you can understand by sensing the energy of the two; this guy has been using his own energy to nourish this thing.

This thing absorbed this person's essence, and over time, with the addition of some unorthodox secret techniques, the two developed a connection, their similar energy creating a somewhat intimate bond.

However, this thing is too ferocious and difficult to suppress. Even when the Blood Spirit tried to fuse and refine it to break through to the Celestial Phenomenon Realm, it almost couldn't suppress it. It is too violent and doesn't seem like a normal thing.

However, it is indeed a rare treasure in the human world, a natural treasure that can help people break through to the Celestial Phenomenon Realm. This is a great treasure. Looking at the whole world, in everyone's heart, this is a peerless item. This item has also developed sentience, which can be said to be even more extraordinary. It is a rare item.

Li Xunhuan looked at Xue Ling and asked as if it were a casual conversation.

What is this?

Blood Spirit replied with fear.

"Senior, this item is called [Spirit Devouring Grievance Shadow]. It was created by finding a rare and precious object and refining it using the Secret Method of the Blood Lotus Sect."

Li Xunhuan nodded. He had to admit that, comparing this treasure with the Blood Spirit, the two were a perfect match. With this treasure, he could break through to the Celestial Phenomenon Realm with the Blood Spirit, which gave him at least a 90% chance of success.

The cultivation technique this guy practices isn't any good either. The two combined, not to mention the nurturing of their origins, have developed a slight attraction over time. As long as this guy can suppress the ferocity of this treasure, it will basically be done.

However, you won't have the chance to break through. The Celestial Phenomenon Realm, well, reaching the Peak Ascension Realm is your limit. Once you figure out this black substance, this Blood Spirit will be finished.

The Blood Spirit, being stared at, felt his hair stand on end, a chill running down his spine and throughout his body. His eyes kept glancing at the battle in the distance. When would the Holy Envoy finally finish?

Having obtained the treasure and sealed the [Spirit Devouring Grievance Shadow] with his sword intent, Li Xunhuan turned and left. He had the treasure, Chu Mo was still waiting for him down the mountain; it was time to end things here.

Seeing Li Xunhuan look away and turn to leave, Xue Ling's eyes flashed with joy and relief. In this situation, he couldn't care less about [Spirit Devouring Grievance Shadow] anymore; saving his own life was the priority!

Suddenly, Blood Spirit, who thought she had survived a calamity, felt her body tighten as she floated in the air. Her face turned to terror, and she was about to speak when...

"Forward!!!"

"Bang!"

Blood Spirit exploded, turning into a cloud of blood mist in the air, which then drifted away with the wind.

"Old man, so you're injured and poisoned by the Blood Lotus Sect's Corrupting Blood. You dare to stop me? Aren't you afraid of death?!"

Outside the Xuanshan, a hint of ferocity and smugness appeared on the charming face of the You Lian Holy Envoy. Her arrogant voice echoed around her. Behind her, a huge, hideous, and terrifying ghost face appeared, its boundless resentment seemingly blotting out the sky. On the ghost face, a pair of scarlet blood eyes were like the gaze of the Grim Reaper.

Even in his arrogance, the You Lian Holy Envoy still kept his gaze and divine sense on the Xuanshan, constantly monitoring the situation there, fearing that someone might suddenly appear.

She knew that Chu Mo hadn't come alone. She wanted to leave, but Chu Mo kept blocking her way, so she really couldn't leave. She couldn't beat her, but for now, stopping her wasn't a problem.

The You Lian Holy Envoy Realm desperately hoped that the man in white would leave immediately after obtaining the [Spirit Devouring Grievance Shadow] in order to keep the treasure for himself; otherwise, if that man in white came, she would truly die.

As Chu Mo continued to fight, the blood-red eyes of the ghost face behind the You Lian Holy Envoy slowly turned to the side as Chu Mo moved, and a beam of blood-red light shot out from its eyes, striking directly at Chu Mo.

The blood-red light struck Chu Mo, but was blocked by the writhing creature formed from the golden light surrounding him. However, Chu Mo's figure was still forced back dozens of feet, and several strange blood-red patterns appeared on his face.

"Huff, huff!"

Chu Mo, who was staggering backward, couldn't help but gasp for breath. His aura was off, as if something was disrupting the flow of energy within his body.

That was the tainted blood remaining in his body, something from the Blood Lotus Sect. The Corrupting Blood had been mingled with his own for too long and had not been completely removed. Now, this You Lian Holy Envoy the Blood Lotus Sect's secret technique to trigger its eruption, causing him to fall into a disadvantageous position.

"[Only by guarding one's heart can one perceive the grandeur of mountains and rivers]"

Without pausing, Chu Mo, who had been repelled, formed hand seals, his body radiating golden light. The foul blood that had erupted on his face, triggered by the You Lian Holy Envoy, was temporarily suppressed. Countless writhing golden orbs of light gathered behind him, forming a landscape of mountains and rivers.

Chu Mo's aura became heavy and domineering, as if he alone possessed the power of mountains and rivers. With a palm strike, the image of mountains and rivers formed by golden light directly suppressed the You Lian Holy Envoy.

"You old fool, you're really asking for it!"

The You Lian Holy Envoy Gritted Her Teeth and said this through gritted teeth. During the time they had been fighting, she had no intention of continuing. These two were too unpredictable, and if she wasn't careful, she would lose her life. So she had already given up on the mission. She had tried to leave several times, but this guy just kept pestering her, and she had no chance to leave at all.

The enormous vengeful ghost face behind the You Lian Holy Envoy suddenly rose up, ferociously lunging towards Chu Mo as if to devour him.

The two sides were locked in a stalemate, and the oppressive force of heaven and earth permeated the area around the Xuanshan. Even those who had come from dozens of miles away for rare and precious materials could truly feel the warning from death.

"Lord of the Mountain of Knives, this?"

A powerful member of the Lu Family, who was heading towards Xuanshan, asked Dao Youming Koudao Mountain, who was speeding towards him not far ahead.

Since the news of the appearance of rare and precious materials in Xuanshan spread, people from all sides in Zhenyou City have gone crazy. Since the destruction of the Shadow Kill Hall, the strongest forces in You Province are now the Lu Family and Koudao Mountain, and naturally, their people are also involved in this event.

The fastest to arrive were naturally the several experts at the Ascension Realm from various regions. However, the experts at the Ascension Realm who came from You Province all stopped in their tracks, and they were even trembling at this moment.

Even from such a great distance, they could still feel that suffocating aura, suppressing everything. It was on a completely different level from their own; going there would probably be fatal!

Dao Youming, standing to the side, gazed at the distant Xuanshan, watching the golden and black energies intertwine and battle on the horizon. His eyes were filled with resentment, but there was nothing he could do. Shaking his head, Dao Youming turned and walked back.

The Celestial Phenomenon Realm has already made a move; this is beyond his control.
