Luring the Blood Kui Beast
"If the Blood Kui Beast can survive inside the Blood Year, then can the person wearing the Blood Kui Armor also move freely inside the Blood Year?"
Liu Leyi asked a question that everyone wanted to know.
"As far as I know, it doesn't work. It is said that a Golden Core cultivator once entered the Blood Year's body wearing the Blood Kui Armor, but never came out again," the elderly cultivator replied.
Liu Leyi bowed respectfully, his face showing admiration.
"Senior Brother Wang, you are indeed well-informed; you even know about such confidential matters."
The elderly cultivator, addressed as Senior Brother Wang, smiled wryly.
"I've simply lived a few more years than you and experienced a bit more. I know these things because, a century ago, I also went to Year Mountain to feed the Blood Year."
"Back then, I had just advanced to the Foundation Establishment and was lucky enough to escape with my life from the ravenous Blood Year."
At this moment, two figures flew in from inside the Beast Taming Sect.
The two moved extremely fast, arriving in front of the group in the blink of an eye.
The visitors were Zhou Xuelin and an elderly man with white hair.
"Greetings, Peak Master."
"Greetings, Vice Peak Master Zhou."
Everyone bowed in greeting.
Song Wen also bowed along with the others.
At the same time, he also learned the identity of the white-haired old man.
The Peak Master of Spirit Beast Peak, Teng Jingshan.
Upon seeing Zhou Siyi and Song Wen there, Zhou Xuelin glanced at them but didn't say anything to them.
He said to Liu Leyi.
"Le Yi, how is Blood Year's condition?"
Liu Leyi stood bowing and recounted in detail how Blood Year went berserk, shattered ten spaceships, and devoured the disciples of the Beast Taming Sect.
Upon hearing this, Zhou Xuelin and Teng Jingshan exchanged glances, nodded, and then flew towards Year Mountain.
After the two entered the array's mist, Song Wen asked in a low voice.
"What are the two Peak Masters of Spirit Beast Peak up to?"
Senior Brother Wang said, "They should be going to lure and capture Blood Kui Beast. Golden Core cultivators can control Blood Kui Beast and form soul contracts with them, greatly increasing their strength. At the same time, without Blood Year Blood Kui Beast's body will be forcibly expelled by the Blood Year, making it excellent spiritual material for feeding spirit beasts."
"Luring Blood Kui Beast! Aren't they afraid of Blood Year?" Song Wen asked in astonishment.
"The two Peak Masters were naturally prepared. As long as the Blood Year is fed, it will no longer attack people," said Senior Brother Wang.
"I still have a question in my mind, and I would like to ask Senior Brother Wang to enlighten me. Why do we use living people as blood food to feed the Blood Year Yearling? Can't we use Demon Beast or dead people?" Song Wen asked.
"I don't know the reason either. But every time the Blood Year awakens, it feeds on living people. It's said that the Blood Year doesn't eat Demon Beast or heavenly materials and earthly treasures, only fresh Human Race," said Senior Brother Wang.
"But the two Peak Master entered the formation empty-handed; they didn't bring any living people with them?" Song Wen asked.
"The Blood Kui Beast Blood Year, require an enormous amount of blood food. Feeding them one by one with living people would be too troublesome. I suppose the two Peak Masters have other plans," Senior Brother Wang guessed.
Inside the Year Mountain Formation.
As soon as Teng Jingshan and Zhou Xuelin stepped into the formation.
With a wave of their hands, the two men conjured up large chunks of flesh and a bottle of Essence Blood in the air.
Their sheer number blotted out the sky.
The entire Year Mountain above Mount Sui was completely obscured by the pieces of meat and the jade bottle.
These blood-eating creatures fell one after another into the mouth of the Blood Year in the center of the Year Mountain.
With ample blood to feed, the Blood Year creature's waving tentacles gradually quieted down.
"Watching Blood Year keep eating," Zhou Xuelin said.
"The flesh and Essence Blood obtained from the Corpse Demon Sect are quite good, but they cost a lot of Spirit Stone. Mortals are still cheaper. As long as there's a spaceship, a Qi Refinement disciple can capture a large number of mortals."
Teng Jingshan said, "There is no other way. Feeding them with mortals is cheap, but the demand is too great. The sect can hardly mobilize enough spaceships, and spaceships also consume Spirit Stone."
Zhou Xuelin said, "Only the Essence Blood refined by the Corpse Demon Sect can be consumed by Blood Year. I wonder what the difference is between the Essence Blood refined by the Corpse Demon Sect and that refined by other cultivators. Even we Golden Core cultivators, and even the three Supreme Elders, cannot see the difference."
As the blood-soaked food in the air was all swallowed by the Blood Year, its tentacles slowly retracted, and complete silence returned.
"Let's go, prepare to lure and capture the Blood Kui Beast."
The two descended and landed beside a pit of rotting flesh at the foot of Year Mountain.
The two of them each took out a huge jade box several meters long, and then, like the previous six Qi Refinement cultivators, they used their physical strength to pick up pieces of rotten flesh and put them into the jade boxes.
About fifteen minutes later, the two men collected all the rotten flesh from the pit.
A pit about ten feet wide appeared in the center of the flesh pit.
This deep pit connects to the Blood Year's valley, a place that the Blood Year finds extremely sensitive; the slightest carelessness could anger Blood Year.
This is why one must be so careful when collecting rotten flesh, and dare not use any spiritual power.
Teng Jingshan took out seven meatballs, each about one meter in size, which emitted a rich aroma.
He placed one fleshy ball next to the deep pit, and the others were placed three miles away.
He set up a demon-trapping formation centered around the six fleshy spheres.
Then, he and Zhou Xuelin retreated several miles to the edge of the formation, found a small mound, concealed themselves, and waited quietly.
Those fleshy spheres were sprinkled with Tier 3 Demon-Luring Powder.
When the Blood Kui Beast smells the scent of the Demon-Luring Powder, it will emerge from the Blood Year Valley and devour the meatball.
Sudden.
Teng Jingshan frowned and asked softly.
"Did something just fall into the anus?"
Fearing to disturb the Blood Kui Beast, which dared not emerge from the Blood Kui Beast Blood Year's body, Teng Jingshan and Zhou Xuelin withdrew their Divine Sense after setting up the demon-trapping formation, relying solely on their eyesight to observe the surrounding movements.
With their Golden Core stage cultivation, their five senses far surpassed those of ordinary people. Even though they were ten miles apart, they could still see the movements around the valley clearly.
Just now, Teng Jingshan saw two tiny black dots fall into the deep pit in the valley.
"They look like two small insects."
Zhou Xuelin replied somewhat uncertainly.
"How could there possibly be insects here?"
The area within the Grand Formation of Year Mountain is perpetually shrouded in the oppressive power of the Blood Year. Not to mention insects, even ordinary Demon Beast find it difficult to survive there for long.
After leaving the formation, Song Wen lost contact with the two Sacred Beetle Gu left inside, and he had no way of knowing Sacred Beetle Gu condition.
He and the other seven waited outside the formation for a while. Seeing that Zhou Xuelin and Teng Jingshan had not come out, they parted ways and returned to their respective peaks.
Song Wen and Zhou Siyi returned to the Human-Snake Cavern together.
Since Song Wen took over as the manager of the Human-Snake Cavern, he would visit the Human-Snake Cavern almost every day during his spare time.
After confirming that everything Human-Snake Cavern was normal, Song Wen returned to his own cave abode.
