Blood Brick
Even with the Exorcising Evil Sword Formation, Song Wen was still not at ease.
He released the Ghost King to monitor the surroundings, and then set up the <Four Symbols Reversal Formation> in the Blood Refining Cave, which made him feel a little more at ease.
Song Wen looked around and his gaze finally settled on the deep pit in the center of the cave. He decided to cultivate in this pit.
He fell into the pit, the bottom of which was dark red, as if it had been stained with blood for many years.
Song Wen didn't pay any attention. He sat cross-legged, took out the Jade Slip containing the second level of the <Soul-Concentrating Spike> Cultivation Method, and began to carefully study it with his Divine Sense.
Compared to the first level, the second level of <Soul-Concentrating Spike> is significantly more difficult.
Cultivating the second level of <Soul-Concentrating Spike> requires the cultivator to mobilize more Divine Sense power to condense Divine Sense Blade. The difficulty is naturally greater, but the power is also more than ten times stronger.
At the same time, the second level requires cultivators to split their Divine Sense and condense it into Divine Sense Blade, with a maximum of three Divine Sense Blades that can be condensed at the same time.
Song Wen devoted himself to cultivation in the Blood Refining Cave, and half a year passed in the blink of an eye.
During this time, he took elixirs several times to replenish his Law Power.
Although the <Exorcising Evil Sword Formation> was not disturbed by Wraith and did not consume much Law Power, it was not without its own drawbacks. In order to ensure that his Law Power was plentiful and to keep himself in the best condition, he dared not relax in the slightest.
That day.
Song Wen took the Heavenly Spirit Pill.
The Heavenly Spirit Pill transformed into an invisible force, surging towards Song Wen's Sea of Consciousness.
With the help of this invisible force, a two-inch transparent blade slowly condensed at Song Wen's brow, followed by another transparent blade.
Manifesting two Divine Sense Blade is already Song Wen's current limit. If he wants to condense a third one, he will need at least the Divine Sense strength of the Late Golden Core Stage.
Two sharp blades swirled around Song Wen, fluttering like butterflies, light and agile.
After trying it for a while, Song Wen stored the two sharp blades into his Sea of Consciousness.
The Divine Sense Blade was formed from his Divine Sense power; firing it would deplete his Divine Sense. Given the current perilous situation, he must conserve every ounce of his power for any eventuality.
Song Wen stood up and looked at the bottom of the pit with a strange expression.
In the center of the pit, a small area that was originally dark red turned a brighter red, as if something had been awakened by the living aura emanating from him.
He noticed the anomaly five months ago, but he didn't pay much attention to it at the time.
However, in the past few months, the color of this area has become increasingly bright red, turning into a deep red, with a noticeable color difference from other parts of the pit.
After pondering for a moment, Song Wen did not act rashly. He used his Law Power to pull the base of the shattered Bronze Furnace over.
Upon closer inspection, he discovered a tiny hole, about the size of a pinhead, on the base of the Bronze Furnace.
If the base is placed in the pit, the small hole will be aligned with the center of the discolored area.
Suddenly, Song Wen's body was filled with a surge of corpse energy, and his right hand transformed into a dark, sharp claw, which he was about to plunge into the discolored area.
He suddenly felt something was amiss.
The corpse energy subsided, and he flashed to the pit's edge.
Song Wen summoned a flying sword, preparing to use it to cut through the bottom of the pit.
After thinking about it, Song Wen still felt it was inappropriate.
He continued to retreat, back to the entrance of the Blood Refining Cave, ready to retract his sword formation and rush out of the Blood Refining Cave at any moment.
Then, the Ghost King, who had been monitoring the movements of the Wraith at the entrance, made its move and plunged into the deep pit.
The Ghost King, wielding his ghost sword, began to cut along the edge of the discolored area.
The danger that Song Wen feared did not materialize.
However, the Ghost King's cutting process did not go smoothly. The rocks at the bottom of the pit were extremely hard, seemingly having undergone special treatment, and were even engraved with array patterns. However, due to the passage of time, the array had long since become ineffective.
After taking the time it takes to eat a meal, the Ghost King finally cut off the discolored area.
It carried a crimson object and came before Song Wen.
This object is one foot long, wide, and thick, and somewhat resembles a paving tile.
The Ghost King used his ghostly energy to support the object, which seemed to be quite heavy, as if it were being carried with difficulty.
Song Wen stared at the Blood Brick for a long time, but couldn't see anything unusual.
This object showed no signs of spiritual energy fluctuations or any sinister aura; it appeared to be just an ordinary blood-red stone.
Song Wen reached out and took the Blood Brick from the Ghost King's hand.
His arm suddenly sank downwards, and he almost failed to catch it.
The weight of the Blood Brick was beyond his imagination, easily tens of thousands of kilograms.
If this item could be refined into a Law Treasure, simply throwing it at Foundation Establishment cultivator would be enough to kill them.
Immediately afterward, Song Wen was startled and hurriedly threw the Blood Brick away.
Just now, the instant he caught the Blood Brick, he felt a powerful surge of Essence Blood flow into his body.
That feeling was no different from the feeling he had when he devoured the Essence Blood of others.
Song Wen hurriedly mobilized his Divine Sense and examined himself internally.
After a moment, Song Wen's expression calmed down somewhat.
Apart from having more Blood Qi and energy, there was nothing else unusual about his body.
"Could this thing be formed from the fusion of countless Essence Blood?"
Song Wen stared at the Blood Brick thrown several feet away and muttered to himself.
The Essence Blood that Song Wen had just devoured was equivalent to the entire Essence Blood of a Foundation Establishment cultivator, but to the Blood Brick, this amount of Essence Blood seemed insignificant, and the Blood Brick did not change in the slightest.
"How could anyone forge such a bizarre Blood Brick?" Song Wen was completely baffled.
Given that this place is named Nether God Mountain, it is most likely related to the Nether God Temple, and may very well be one of the Nether God Temple's bases in the Sea of Disorder.
The Nether God Temple is subordinate to the Divine Blood Sect.
Song Wen was somewhat surprised, wondering just how powerful the Divine Blood Sect had been back then.
How could such a powerful force have vanished without a trace over tens of thousands of years?
Having confirmed that the Blood Brick posed no danger, Song Wen Blood Brick it in his storage ring without using any other container.
The Blood Brick's aura was completely contained, with not a trace of Blood Qi leaking out, which allowed it to be preserved intact over the long years without slow deterioration.
That is why the Xing Family cultivators failed to discover its existence.
Although Song Wen doesn't yet know what this item is for, at least he won't lack Essence Blood for a long time to come, and he can even choose to sell his Essence Blood in exchange for a huge amount of Spirit Stone.
Song Wen collected the Ghost King into the Yin Soul Banner and arrived at the passage of the Blood Refining Cave.
Two bolts of lightning lit up his hands, ready to strike and prepare for battle.
Song Wen suddenly put away the Exorcising Evil Sword Formation.
To his surprise, there was only one Wraith the passage; the others did not appear.
This Wraith was several meters tall, with a massive body and the strength of Late Third Rank.
It has a huge bull's head with blood-red eyes; its humanoid body is covered in scales; and it has a pair of huge bird wings on its back.
It crouched in the relatively narrow passage, and seeing the Lightning Sphere that had blocked its way for so long disappear, it, lacking any intelligence, pounced on Song Wen without hesitation.
