After seeing the Main Body enter the giant blood-red pagoda, Silver Bone Ancestor and the others could no longer contain their joy, their faces breaking into smiles.
The information the Main Body had passed down to them, besides a single command, also included a secret art called "Sacred Sacrifice," three Spiritual Powers: "Blood Feather Flowing Light," "Blood Demon Cold Flame," and "Netherworld Blood Thunder," and one cultivation technique, "Blood Demon True Body."
Regardless of whether it was a secret art, Spiritual Power, or cultivation technique, everything was related to blood, and each item was focused on enhancing combat power.
If not for the preceding command, Silver Bone Ancestor and the others might still have had some reservations. With everything related to blood, it was hard to feel at ease. But after receiving the command, they found peace in their thoughts.
The Main Body's command was to collect essence blood, a large amount of it. This explained why so many blood-related items that greatly enhanced combat power were passed down. It formed a chain of benefits.
However, the Main Body's method of collection was somewhat exasperating: during battles between various factions, nine giant black coffins would be directly brought to the battlefield to activate formations, drawing all the corpses into the coffins. Anyone who dared to obstruct them would be annihilated.
Silver Bone Ancestor and the others could imagine how enraged those warring factions would be. But now, who was afraid of whom? The group exchanged glances and let out sinister laughter simultaneously.
To Silver Bone Ancestor and the others, the secret art "Sacred Sacrifice" was incredibly useful. By devouring the essence of blood, one could rapidly enhance physical strength. At higher levels, one could even achieve an indestructible demonic body, regenerating from a single drop of blood. Of course, it wasn't truly indestructible; each regeneration would consume a vast amount of Blood Qi, severely damaging one's vitality. But this was enough to make Silver Bone Ancestor and the others tremble with excitement. To them, this secret art was simply heaven-defying.
"Blood Feather Flowing Light" was an adaptation by the Main Body based on "Sword Light Flying Wings," modified to be propelled by Blood Qi. The others were also byproducts born from the Main Body's deductions while studying the Pangu Divine Body.
"Starting today, this giant city will be called Blood Prison City, and the five of us will be the Blood Prison Five Ancestors. Other Grand Unity Golden Immortals will be elders, Golden Immortals will be elite cultivators, and Mystic Immortals and Heavenly Immortals will be general cultivators. The higher the cultivation, the more privileges one enjoys," Silver Bone Ancestor and Golden Horn Ancestor announced to the other cultivators after consulting with each other.
The appearance of Blood Prison City quickly spread. Such a significant event could not be hidden, especially since the Main Body's construction of the city had caused such a commotion, attracting the attention of countless individuals.
Blood Prison City was located in the northern part of Hong Huang. Areas with more spiritual meridians naturally attracted stronger major forces, and the high concentration of spiritual qi made cultivation easier. Most major factions had their centers in the eastern part of Hong Huang.
The closest faction was the Fierce Beast Domain. Therefore, other factions in Hong Huang were closely watching the Fierce Beast Domain's reaction. After all, it was impossible to ignore a new force appearing near one's own territory, even if this new force seemed quite weak.
In the center of the Fierce Beast Domain, atop a mysterious tall tower, a man with purple hair sat cross-legged, cultivating at the summit. This person was the enigmatic Beast Emperor of Hong Huang—Shen Ni.
Shen Ni's previous life was the Three-Eyed Purple Dragon, one of the 3,000 Chaos Demon Gods. He was much luckier than other Divine Demons; his soul was not severely damaged. After reincarnating as the Fierce Beast Blood-Eyed Tyrannosaurus, he quickly broke through to the Grand Unity Golden Immortal realm. Afterward, he continuously gathered Fierce Beasts that had awakened their intelligence, becoming a supreme force in Hong Huang.
"Have you gathered information about that giant city?" the Beast Emperor Shen Ni asked a shadowy figure with three spikes on its back, speaking unhurriedly.
"Yes, my Emperor. That giant city currently has twenty Grand Unity Golden Immortals. The five leaders have become the Blood Prison Five Ancestors. Other information has not yet arrived."
"Then send thirty Grand Unity Golden Immortals and ten million Fierce Beasts to probe them. How dare they build a city near my Fierce Beast Domain? They're courting death," Shen Ni snorted coldly. In his previous life as a Chaos Demon God, his killing intent was extremely strong, and after reincarnating as a Fierce Beast, he became even more violent.
Furthermore, he was inherently overbearing and could not tolerate anyone challenging his dignity. Moreover, how could he allow others to sleep soundly beside his own bed? Without a second thought, he issued a kill order against Blood Prison City.
"Emperor, perhaps we should wait until we have more information before making a decision," the shadow said cautiously.
"No need. Twenty Grand Unity Golden Immortals are nothing to worry about," Shen Ni waved his sleeve.
"Yes, my Emperor," the shadow said no more, knowing Shen Ni had made up his mind and further discussion would be futile.
"Did you hear? The Fierce Beast Domain has sent troops. I wonder if Blood Prison City can escape this calamity."
"Hmph, I think it's doomed. The power of the Fierce Beast Domain is not something a newly established force can contend with."
"The people who built the city were foolish. Why choose to build it so close to the Fierce Beast Domain!"
"I don't think so. Since Blood Prison City dared to build there, they must have a trump card."
In Hong Huang, everyone continuously commented while watching how Blood Prison City would handle this tribulation.
Contrary to the attitude of outsiders, everyone within Blood Prison City wore joyous expressions. The cultivation techniques and Spiritual Powers passed down by the Main Body required vast amounts of essence blood. They were just worrying about how to obtain it, and now it was delivered right to their doorstep.
Thirty Grand Unity Golden Immortals and ten million Fierce Beasts were nothing in the eyes of Blood Prison City. To that existence, they were mere appetizers. Therefore, not only was there no worry, but they even vaguely anticipated their swift arrival.
After the ten million Fierce Beasts departed from the Beast Domain, they formed a black torrent surging towards Blood Prison City, with desolate and violent roars echoing continuously.
Most of these ten million Fierce Beasts were bloodthirsty and lacked any reason. There were countless such Fierce Beasts in the Beast Domain.
This was essentially a probe. If Blood Prison City couldn't resist, they would be wiped out. If they truly had hidden trump cards, then they would be re-evaluated.
Regardless, the Fierce Beast Domain could afford the loss of over thirty Grand Unity Golden Immortals and ten million Fierce Beasts. Otherwise, they wouldn't be one of the top forces in Hong Huang; this was their foundation.
The more than thirty Grand Unity Golden Immortals and ten million Fierce Beasts arrived outside the city with immense arrogance. The overwhelming scene caused the people of Blood Prison City to gasp in shock.
If they hadn't known that existence was within the city, they probably would have fled long ago.
The Grand Unity Golden Immortals from the Fierce Beast Domain also looked at Blood Prison City with cold smiles, truly courting death by daring to build a city here.
Just then, a pagoda tens of thousands of feet tall suddenly appeared in the sky. The terrifying soul pressure caused all living beings present to shiver.
The same Spiritual Power, the Main Body's "Nine-Colored Pagoda," was more than a hundred times more powerful than the one Li Yi used. A ripple emanated from the "Nine-Colored Pagoda." Apart from the more than thirty Grand Unity Golden Immortals who fled heavily injured, all the Fierce Beasts collapsed to the ground without a sound.
Silver Bone Ancestor and the others were stunned. They had originally expected a world-shattering battle, with the sun and moon overturned and rivers of blood flowing. They never imagined it would end so quickly.
However, they quickly came to their senses. These were excellent sources of blood! Although there were many Fierce Beasts in Hong Huang, most were now concentrated in the Beast Domain, and no one dared to kill them indiscriminately.
Hong Huang was shaken. They never expected a suddenly appearing force to be so formidable.
"I told you, if they dared to build a city there, they must have had a trump card."
"Incredible! In an instant, over 30 Grand Unity Golden Immortals were heavily injured, and ten million Fierce Beasts were annihilated. They are simply too strong."
Comments continued to pour in from all over Hong Huang, with everyone watching to see what further actions the Fierce Beast Domain would take. However, they were destined to be disappointed. The Fierce Beasts made no further response.
Soon, major factions also issued secret orders not to provoke Blood Prison City. The leaders of these major factions were no ordinary individuals. They understood the terror of that single strike. Strictly speaking, it was an attack that could no longer be unleashed by the Grand Unity realm. If Old Ancestor Lu Ya and others were considered king-level figures among Grand Unity Golden Immortals, then this mysterious powerhouse was at least an emperor-level figure, someone they could not afford to offend.
This incident slowly passed amidst the silence of the major factions, and Blood Prison City became an existence that could not be provoked in Hong Huang.
