The Tushan Maids' Hidden Killing Intent

"War forced reform. The Six Paths Sect's Nascent Soul Cultivators gave ground..."

Jiang Ding spoke to himself.

Events continued to unfold. Six Paths Saint Child Yin Dao and the Blissful Union Holy Maiden stopped Bloodflow Cloud.

On the eastern front, the Ice-Snow Hall's saintess, born to a branch of a lineage, stopped the Tushan Maid Corps.

The Ice-Snow Saintess's name also reached him through channels among the lineages' female cultivators from branch lines.

Mu Tianxue.

Mu Tianxue was the ancestor of the Blood Slaughter Hall in the Land of the Three Kingdoms, the owner of the Blood Spirit Nine-Lives Sacred Body—the one who often turned into a swarm of palm-sized little figures to flee whenever she was beaten to death.

Jiang Ding had personally slain one of her lives and searched her soul. That was how he had discovered the Blood Spirit Nine-Lives Sacred Body.

It was a gift comparable to the Lunar Dao Body and the Five Elements Dao Body, with exceptional powers of survival. Its nine divided lives meant that as long as one remained, the cultivator would not die.

Of course, despite possessing a Dao Body, Mu Tianxue could not compare to the Taiyin Sword Heir or Five Elements Dao Scion An Tuzi. She was still struggling bitterly for a Nascent Soul Realm cultivation method, and even her advancement would depend on luck.

That was the enormous difference an upbringing made.

On the eastern front, the Tushan Maid Corps held the advantage. Its eighty thousand Dao soldiers had surrounded the newly mobilized armies of Ice-Snow Hall and the Six Paths Sect so tightly that not even water could seep through, attacking day and night.

Outside the main battlefield, however, the Tushan Maid Corps was at a severe disadvantage.

Ice-Snow Saintess Mu Tianxue had keenly grasped her advantage.
