Blood Nether Dragon Emperor
Wang Baole's storage ring lit up, and a woodcutter's knife appeared in his hand.
Ye Beixuan, standing to the side, took out the Pseudo Primordial Chaos Mirror.
The combined aura of the Dao Integration Realm beings emanated from both of them in an instant.
Xue Wentian's expression changed drastically, and he roared, "I will perish together with you all!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he exploded with a loud bang.
The aftershocks of the explosion didn't seem significant to Wang Baole and Ye Beixuan, but Xue Wentian's self-destruction caused the formation in the blood pool to explode as well.
Rumble!
With a loud bang, the Heavenly Devil blood in the blood pool swept towards Wang Baole, Ye Beixuan, and the others.
The towering wave of blood seemed poised to engulf everyone in the cave.
"Hahaha..."
A burst of maniacal laughter echoed from the blood-red waves.
Even in death, I will drag you all down to hell!
That's it?
Wang Baole looked disdainful, then opened his mouth and inhaled the blood wave, swallowing it into his stomach.
The Primordial Chaos Mirror in Ye Beixuan's hand emitted Dao Light, absorbing the blood waves.
This scene not only stunned Xue Wentian in the blood wave, but also left the inner and outer disciples of the Dao-Seeking Academy dumbfounded.
Qin Yun muttered to himself, "Isn't Senior Uncle Wang a bit too terrifying?"
Feng Qiongyu said, "You don't need to worry, kid. Your Uncle Wang has awakened the Taotie Physique. Let alone mere Heavenly Devil Blood, even if he swallows Devil God Blood, it won't have any effect on him."
Nangong Yu searched for Xue Wentian's figure amidst the blood waves. In her opinion, a guy who would use clones to cover his tracks wherever he went would never self-destruct so easily.
Just as she expected, a familiar figure was hidden beneath the blood pool.
She slowly took out her holy sword from her storage ring, locked onto the figure with her divine sense, and a slight smile appeared on her lips, "Blood God Sect brat, found you!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Nangong Yu suddenly drew his sword and slashed at Xue Wentian in the blood pool.
Clang!
The sword pierced through the blood waves and fell towards Xue Wentian in the blood pool.
Xue Wentian looked at the sword, despair already showing on his face, and a thought flashed through his mind—my life is over!
Just then, from beneath the blood pool, a gigantic dragon claw reached out and grabbed the Sword Qi.
Click!
That sword shattered instantly.
Xue Wentian patted his chest with lingering fear, then looked down into the blood pool, where he saw the enormous ghostly shadow of a dragon's head emerging from it.
The mere appearance of a head, emanating a terrifying aura, sent shivers down the spines of everyone from the Dao-Seeking Academy within the cave.
"Saint Rank Demonic Dragon Soul!"
Ye Beixuan looked at the head in front of him and subconsciously spoke.
The dragon soul ignored everyone and simply said something indifferently.
Who disturbed my slumber?
Xue Wentian looked at the dragon head before him and knelt down in the blood pool with a thud.
"Your Majesty Blood Nether Dragon Emperor, it's... it's those guys outside who call themselves righteous people."
"I never imagined that after so many years, someone would still recognize me?"
The Blood Nether Dragon Emperor muttered something under his breath.
"Your Majesty, I am your faithful follower, determined to awaken you and bring you back to rule this land."
As Xue Wentian spoke, he carefully observed the other person's expression.
After discovering the secret of this blood pool in the Northern Abyss, he had a bold idea: to use the Blood Nether Dragon Emperor in front of him to cultivate supreme divine powers and one day break through to the Saint Realm.
However, it is not an easy task to borrow the Blood Nether Dragon Emperor's power to cultivate supernatural abilities. One must have great fortune to withstand the backlash from the other party's fortune.
Therefore, after learning that Shi Xuan of the Shi Clan in the Northern Wasteland possessed great fortune, he joined the ranks of those who wanted to share in that fortune.
Unfortunately, the idea was nice, but reality was cruel.
In this battle, not only did he gain nothing, but even his protector, the Blood Nether Dragon, perished. That was the mount that his master had painstakingly nurtured into Great Sage.
According to the rules of the Blood God Sect, if one's protector falls and one cannot make a significant contribution to the cult, then one will have no chance to compete for the title of God Child.
Thus, Xue Wentian made this trip, but he didn't expect that these guys from the Dao Dao-Seeking Academy would wake up the Blood Nether Dragon Emperor in advance.
Upon hearing this Blood Nether Dragon Emperor smiled and said, "It's commendable that you have such good intentions, but now is not the time for me to rule the world. In another thousand years, I will be fully revived, and then you will become the Great Sage under my command."
Upon hearing this, Wang Baole couldn't help but burst out laughing, "Pfft... Hahaha..."
"Um?"
The Blood Nether Dragon Emperor's face instantly darkened with displeasure at being interrupted. He fixed his gaze on Wang Baole and asked coldly, "Junior, what are you laughing at?"
Wang Baole and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean it. It's just that the promise you made was too ridiculous. You'd have to be my dog for a thousand years to become Great Sage. You'd be better off becoming my disciple. I guarantee you'll become Great Sage in five hundred years."
Ye Beixuan echoed, "That's right, sir. Times have changed. Becoming Great Sage only once every thousand years holds absolutely no appeal for us geniuses."
Xue Wentian thought the same thing, but he dared not say it aloud, as he was still waiting for the person in front of him to save him.
"Snort!"
The Blood Nether Dragon Emperor sneered, "You bunch of arrogant juniors, today I will show you my power!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the entire mountain began to shake violently.
Dust fell from above the cave, making it seem as if the cave would collapse at any moment.
The blood wave that was originally sweeping towards everyone also fell into the blood pool in that instant, but it was visibly reduced by more than half.
The Blood Nether Dragon Emperor's soul gradually emerged from beneath the blood pool. Although only half of his soul appeared, the Saint Realm aura emanating from him enveloped the entire cave.
Under the influence of this terrifying aura, the people in the cave swayed uncontrollably, and several cultivators with lower cultivation levels fell to the ground.
After exchanging a glance, Wang Baole and Ye Beixuan took out the Sword Jade Sword Jade from their storage rings, intending to use it to resist the Blood Nether Dragon Emperor before them.
However, they soon discovered that their spiritual power and divine sense were sealed by the Blood Nether Dragon Emperor's aura, making it impossible for them to activate the Sword Jade.
The two's subtle movements naturally did not escape the eyes of the Blood Nether Dragon Emperor. He said coldly, "Juniors, haven't you heard that all those below the level of a Saint are ants? With just a thought from me, you have absolutely no chance to resist."
I find your bodies to be a delicacy as well. By consuming you and absorbing your fortune, I can avoid sleeping for two hundred years.
"You brat from the Blood God Sect, you've finally done something good. Rest assured, I will reward you handsomely and make you the ruler of the world."
Xue Wentian hadn't yet grasped the implied meaning in the Blood Nether Dragon Emperor's words, and immediately knelt down and kowtowed, saying, "Thank you, Your Majesty. This is what I should do. Please accept these offerings I have brought for you."
The Blood Nether Dragon Emperor was quite pleased with his obsequious demeanor, and his gaze towards the other man held a newfound fervor. "You're quite the smooth talker, kid. Well then, I'll deal with these little rascals for you first."
"Hehe."
A contemptuous sneer suddenly rang out, interrupting the conversation between the man and the dragon.
Blood Nether Dragon Emperor and Xue Wentian instinctively looked in the direction from which the sound came, but found no one.
"Who's that, sneaking around like that?"
As the Blood Nether Dragon Emperor spoke, he began to use his divine sense to detect the creature hiding in the shadows.
"It seems you, old dragon, possess only holy might, and your strength is merely that of a Great Sage. I stand right before you, yet you remain completely unaware."
As the sound faded, a figure slowly appeared in everyone's sight.
The expressions on the faces of those present were quite different when they saw this figure.
Although the students from the Dao-Seeking Academy couldn't speak, their joy was practically overflowing.
Xue Wentian exclaimed in surprise, "Great Sage Golden Wing, you... how did you get here?"
The newcomer was none other than the Great Sage Golden Wing, who said with a smile, "Don't be surprised, you fool who's been sold out and still counting the money for them. In a moment, I'll make sure you die knowing exactly what happened."
"What... what do you mean by that?"
When Xue Wentian saw the guy in front of him, he felt a nameless fear deep in his heart.
The Great Sage Golden Wing laughed and said, "Very well, since you're so brainless, I'll take pity on you and tell you first: the old dragon soul you worship is thinking of possessing you."
After he finished speaking, the cave fell silent for a moment. Xue Wentian and Blood Nether Dragon both glanced at each other...
