Sneaking into the Cave! Trap?!

Before the words had even left his mouth, Wang Xuan was already moving.

Li Qingyi didn't stop him.

Wang Xuan wasn't reckless; he shouldn't do anything to ruin things.

Soon, Wang Xuan suppressed all his aura and arrived in the branches of an ancient tree.

Looking down at the Pity Life Sect Demon-Humans patrolling below, a murderous intent surged in Wang Xuan's eyes. He glanced around and silently drew the bow and arrow from his back.

The next instant!

Wang Xuan drew back the bow and released the arrow, firing a series of shots.

The patrol team of Pity Life Sect Demon-Humans below had their heads pierced by the arrows in an instant, their corpses falling straight to the ground.

[Killed an Iron Skin Realm Demon-Human, Archery Experience +1000, Gained Ten Attribute Points]

[...]

[Advanced Archery Breakthrough, Minor Completion Progress 3000/]

[Strength Increased, Current Strength 2800 kg]

A series of Crimson Panel notifications rang out. After killing seven Pity Life Sect Demon-Humans, Advanced Archery successfully broke through to the Minor Completion realm.

Wang Xuan succeeded with a single strike, flashing down to retrieve his arrows, then leaping away towards another direction.

The entire Chillshadow Gulch had at least four patrolling teams outside, totaling nearly thirty Pity Life Sect Demon-Humans.

[Killed an Iron Skin Realm Demon, Archery Experience +1000, Gained Ten Attribute Points]

[Killed an Iron Skin Realm Peak Demon, Archery Experience +2000, Gained Twenty Attribute Points]

[Killed a Dragon Serpent Realm Initial Stage Demon, Archery Experience +3000, Gained Thirty Attribute Points]

Wang Xuan remained calm and collected, firing arrow after arrow.

These patrolling Pity Life Sect Demon-Humans didn't even notice before they all kicked the bucket.

After dealing with the patrolling Demon-Humans, Wang Xuan looked at the panel.

[Advanced Archery: Major Completion Progress 1500/]

[Attribute Points: 789]

[Strength: 2900 kg]

In just this short time, Advanced Archery had reached Major Completion.

And the most crucial thing was that his attribute points were about to break a thousand.

"As long as I reach a thousand attribute points, I can refine the Blood Demon Pearl!"

Wang Xuan murmured, packed away his bow and arrows, and returned to Li Qingyi's side.

"Did you take care of them all?"

Looking at Wang Xuan's quick return, Li Qingyi couldn't help but frown and ask.

"These were just a bunch of ordinary Demon-Humans; they were easily dealt with."

Wang Xuan replied, and the two continued deeper into Chillshadow Gulch.

As they continued forward, a bloody aura permeated the air, carrying a very unsettling feeling.

"Such a strong bloody smell; it seems to be just ahead!"

Wang Xuan said with a solemn expression.

Soon, a huge cave appeared before the two.

Various strange runes and patterns were carved around the cave entrance, and two Pity Life Sect Demon-Humans were guarding the entrance.

Both were Entangling Serpent Realm experts!

"It seems the altar is inside!"

"Young Master Li, we can notify Centurion now. Once they arrive, we can make our move!"

Puchi!

Before Wang Xuan could finish speaking, he saw a beam of white light fly out, splitting the two Entangling Serpent Realm Demon-Humans guarding the cave entrance in two.

They couldn't be any more dead!

Wang Xuan's eyes widened instantly as he looked at Li Qingyi and said, "What are you doing?"

Li Qingyi's expression was indifferent, and the killing intent in its eyes was icy cold. "Of course, I'm killing people!"

As it spoke, Li Qingyi stepped forward, about to walk towards the cave.

Wang Xuan quickly grabbed it.

"Young Master Li, didn't we agree that once we found the location of the altar, we would notify Yang Tianfeng and the others!"

"We'll make our move after they arrive!"

Wang Xuan quickly tried to dissuade it.

Even the two Pity Life Sect Demon-Humans guarding the entrance were Entangling Serpent Realm experts, not to mention the other experts inside the cave!

There was even the dangerous presence of the Bewitching Envoys!

Li Qingyi said with an icy expression.

"If you're afraid of death, you can wait here!"

"As for notifying Yang Tianfeng, you can go ahead and do that!"

Li Qingyi flipped its hand and a talisman appeared, throwing it to Wang Xuan.

This was a communication talisman.

It could transmit messages within a thousand miles.

After handing the communication talisman to Wang Xuan, Li Qingyi ignored the dissuasion and flashed into the cave.

Wang Xuan watched Li Qingyi enter the cave, his brows furrowing instantly.

"What is this guy so anxious about?"

Wang Xuan couldn't help but say angrily.

They had clearly agreed to notify Yang Tianfeng once they found the location of the altar, and wait for them to arrive before taking action!

But Li Qingyi had insisted on rushing in alone!

Wang Xuan gritted his teeth, crushed the communication talisman, and then flashed in after it.

Meanwhile, in White Water County.

Yang Tianfeng was anxiously waiting for news.

Suddenly!

The communication talisman in his hand turned red, and a message was transmitted!

"Finally found it!"

"You damned beasts, let's see where you can escape this time!"

"Everyone, move out!"

A murderous intent surged in Yang Tianfeng's eyes as he rode a horse straight towards Blackwind Mountain!

Behind him were hundreds of heavily armored soldiers, who immediately followed upon hearing his command!

"Why did you come in?"

"Didn't I tell you to wait?"

Li Qingyi frowned when it saw Wang Xuan following.

Wang Xuan said helplessly, "You're already in, it's not safe for me to be outside alone. If I run into a Demon, I'll be dead!"

Li Qingyi didn't reply.

The two entered the cave and began to walk close to the walls.

Along the way.

They encountered many Pity Life Sect Demon-Humans, but Li Qingyi simply raised its hand, and the flying sword easily dealt with them all.

Wang Xuan was filled with envy at this sight.

Before the person arrives, the sword is already there!

Taking the enemy's head from a thousand miles away!

It was simply extremely dashing!

The two advanced along the cave and soon arrived at a vast underground cave space!

A strong bloody smell assaulted them, causing Wang Xuan to frown.

Faintly.

There were also strange chanting sounds coming from somewhere.

Wang Xuan and Li Qingyi tiptoed to the top of the cave entrance and looked down.

In the wide underground space was a huge artificial altar, with a statue of the Holy Mother of Pity Life, tens of meters high, standing in the center of the altar.

Around the altar stood at least two or three hundred Pity Life Sect Demon-Humans, ranging from the Iron Skin Realm to the Jade Bone Realm.

Rolling demonic energy filled the underground space, mixed with the aura of blood and evil, making people feel very suppressed.

Around the statue of the Holy Mother of Pity Life.

Was a circle of huge blood pools!

Inside, the bones of Demons and humans were visible to the naked eye, churning in the blood pools.

Upon seeing this, Wang Xuan clenched his fists tightly!

Such a large blood pool, I wonder how many people's blood it would take to fill!

It's said it would take over a thousand people!

In the middle of the blood pool, there are also nine strange blood-colored stone platforms.

Like nine special altars.

But what caught Wang Xuan's attention the most was a man standing directly below the Holy Mother of Pity Life!

He was standing on a high platform.

He was wearing a blood-colored robe and a white mask on his face, making it impossible to see his features, but he exuded a strong aura of evil!

In front of him were ten Blood Demon Pearls!

His entire body was surging with demonic energy, I'm afraid he has already reached the Golden Blood Realm, or even stronger!

"This guy... could he be a Bewitching Envoy?"

Wang Xuan thought to himself.

And the moment Li Qingyi saw the Bewitching Envoy, killing intent burst from its eyes, and its aura became chaotic!

Seeing this, Wang Xuan quickly grabbed its hand!

"Don't act rashly!"

Wang Xuan quickly whispered.

With so many Demon-Humans of the Pity Life Sect, the two of them alone definitely couldn't handle it!

Li Qingyi's eyes were a little red, but looking at so many Demon-Humans, and the Bewitching Envoy in the middle with its rolling demonic energy, it ultimately did not act.

And at the moment the two arrived, many Demon-Humans of the Pity Life Sect surrounding the altar below began to chant around the altar!

And the Bewitching Envoy in the middle also began to chant!

Wang Xuan's expression changed abruptly!

"Isn't this the sacrificial text that Zhou Laifu chanted during the last Blood Sacrifice? Could this guy be about to perform a Blood Sacrifice now?"

A sense of unease rose in Wang Xuan's heart!

And Li Qingyi beside him, its expression also began to change abruptly.

The Bewitching Envoy's chanting voice sounded, echoing throughout the underground space.

"Great Holy Mother, please grant your most faithful believers the most powerful strength!"

"I offer you the most authentic sacrifices, praying that the Holy Mother will bestow holy light and bathe your believers!"

"La Uka Jie Duo!"

"Kong Ka A Mo Jie!"

The strange chanting echoed, and the other Demon-Humans of the Pity Life Sect below also began to chant along.

This chanting seemed to possess some kind of magic. Wang Xuan only felt a burst of pain in his head, his mind was dazed, and it seemed that some strange thing was invading his mind!

Seeing this, Li Qingyi placed one hand on his shoulder, and a surge of Source Energy poured into his body, and the pain in his head gradually disappeared.

"Thank you..."

Wang Xuan thanked Li Qingyi.

Li Qingyi did not speak, but just looked at the movements below.

Suddenly!

The chanting suddenly stopped.

I saw the Bewitching Envoy on the altar below raising both hands high, with a hint of madness in its eyes.

"Present the Human Pills!"

With an order!

On the east side of the altar, Demon-Humans of the Pity Life Sect suddenly walked out, leading eight men and women.

These eight men and women were all young, and at this moment they looked tired and mentally dazed, as if they had suffered some kind of torture.

But what caught Wang Xuan's attention the most was that these eight men and women were all Martial Practitioners, ranging from the Iron Skin Realm to the Jade Bone Realm, and their overall aura was stronger than Martial Practitioners of the same realm!

It seemed to carry some kind of special aura!

Li Qingyi's expression changed drastically when it saw the eight people!

"This is... a special bloodline!!"

In an instant!

Li Qingyi understood what the so-called Human Pill was all about!

That is a Martial Practitioner with a "special bloodline"!

Wang Xuan was mistaken for having a special bloodline, so he was marked by the Pity Life Sect and regarded as a Human Pill!

And beside it, Wang Xuan also understood.

The eight bloodline Martial Practitioners were led onto eight of the sacrificial altars in the blood pool, their entire bodies seemingly bound, unable to move.

Wang Xuan's pupils constricted at this sight.

"This can't be..."

"A trap!"

In an instant!

A chill ran down Wang Xuan's spine!

There were nine sacrificial altars in the blood pool!

Now that the Bewitching Envoys had placed eight "Human Pills" on the altars, that meant there was only one left!

And that last one could only be him!

Li Qingyi also realized this and grabbed Wang Xuan, ready to retreat!

But in that instant!

The Bewitching Envoy on the altar below raised its head, its voice feminine yet crazed as it rang out.

"Our honored guest has come from afar. Since you're already here, why bother leaving?"
