This person was none other than Zou Rui.
Even Zou Rui, who had powerful treasures protecting him, had been blasted into a mangled state by the explosive energy formed from the self-detonation of dozens of Smoke Moon Crystal Stone talisman arrays.
However, Zou Rui was clearly in no danger of losing his life. Sitting cross-legged, he was immediately enveloped in a mass of scarlet light. Then a dense mass of blood essence appeared out of thin air, completely wrapping him within.
His wounds, which covered his entire body, rapidly recovered within the blood mass at a speed visible to the naked eye.
In two other locations tens of thousands of miles from Zou Rui, two more cultivators were also sitting cross-legged, rapidly restoring their condition. These two were Holy Lord Nie Po and Saintly Venerable Shiyou.
Dark mist swirled around Holy Lord Nie Po, with countless yin souls and ghosts circling him. Corpses sat cross-legged around him, their bodies visibly withering at a rapid pace, while the horrifying wounds covering Holy Lord Nie Po's body rapidly healed.
On the other side, Saintly Venerable Shiyou had already lost one arm, with jagged bone fragments jutting out. His body was likewise covered in wounds deep enough to expose bone. Greenish, sinister demonic mist enveloped him, while countless tiny Spirit Patterns churned through the flesh of his wounds and pure demonic energy gathered within them.
Aside from Holy Lord Nie Po and Saintly Venerable Shiyou, the others had all collapsed across the vast ground.
They had not been injured by the self-detonation of the Smoke Moon Crystal Stone talisman arrays, but by the strikes of the Crimson Heavenly Blade. That was the altar's terrifying attack, and no one had escaped unscathed.
