267: The Asura bloodline is perfected!

“Achoo!”

Qi Longhu rubbed his hands in front of the warm stove and sneezed.

“It’s getting colder and colder…”

“Hall Master, we’ve been squatting in this broken place for several months and there’s no news of Master Chen. Should we go back for New Years Day first?”

An Internal Steward said, shivering from the cold.

“New Year’s Day? Don’t even think about it until we find that kid Chen Heng!”

Qi Longhu snorted angrily and glared at the Internal Steward.

“Hall Master, I’ve recently heard some rumors, but I don’t know if they’re true.”

An Outer Deacon, who was poking the warm stove with a fire poker, looked at Qi Longhu.

“Spit it out if you have something to say.” Qi Longhu was already agitated from not being able to find Chen Heng, and hearing rumors always made him feel like it wasn’t good news.

“Didn’t I infiltrate a cult recently? They were talking about offerings and sacrifices.”

“That Grand State Preceptor now demands them to capture hundreds of people from various places every day for sacrifices, and I don’t know what for.”

“And it’s not just them; other cults are also being given the same demands.”

“If they don’t meet the quota set by the Grand State Preceptor, then they themselves will be used as sacrifices.”

“What if one day it falls on us…”

“What kind of evil are those madmen up to now?” Qi Longhu sighed, hearing it was about the Grand State Preceptor.

“Unclear, but it’s definitely not good.”

“Let’s wait a bit longer. If not, we’ll go to the Eastern Demon Alliance to find that kid Chen Heng.” Qi Longhu finally shook his head. He wasn’t going to give up just like that… In fact, many people knew about the evil Dragon being crushed to death, but they just didn’t know who did it.

Chang Yutian, one of the few who had seen Chen Heng’s true form, still didn’t know that the ‘monster’ he spoke of was Chen Heng.

Inside the imperial palace, Chang Yutian, with a ferocious expression, dipped the rakshasa god corpse on his arm into a pool of blood.

“It’s not enough, still not enough. This Venerable One must reclaim the path to godhood that belongs to him!”

In the past month, Chang Yutian had demanded various cults to prepare living human sacrifices for him every day, all to nourish the rakshasa god corpse on his arm.

The Fusion of the rakshasa god corpse and Chang Yutian was growing deeper; now only a face and two claws were still exposed.

“Grand State Preceptor, compared to last month, the population of the entire Jade Fan Kingdom has already decreased by half a percent this month.”

Xie Run knelt on one knee beside Chang Yutian and spoke.

“If this continues, in less than a year, the entire Jade Fan Kingdom will become a wasteland.”

“Still need a year?” Chang Yutian snorted coldly, and after devouring the human sacrifices in the blood pool, he sat on the jade bed.

“How are the preparations for the great rakshasa sacrifice I instructed you to make coming along?”

“All preparations are complete, and all cult members have been informed.” Xie Run handed a black compass to Chang Yutian.

“Hehehe, as long as New Years Day arrives, the entire Jade Fan Kingdom will become this Venerable One’s human sacrifices.”

Looking at the scattered lights on the compass, Chang Yutian grinned sinisterly.

This great rakshasa sacrifice was a sacrificial method Chang Yutian had researched through the rakshasa god corpse.

Each sacrificer was a node, and through them, it could directly cover the entire Jade Fan Kingdom.

Anyone within the range would be transformed into nourishment for the rakshasa god corpse.

Including those sacrificers.

Chang Yutian was now almost insane. He planned to use the entire Jade Fan Kingdom as human sacrifices to offer to the rakshasa god corpse, Ox Can Speak, and Intestine Pulling.

He no longer cared about anything; they were merely extremely lowly lives, how could they be as important as his ascension to godhood.

As for the cults he personally cultivated, he didn't care about them either. After becoming a god, naturally, more people would come to believe in him.

Moreover, after the blood sacrifice of the entire Jade Fan Kingdom, he was confident he could kill the Emperor of Daliang and that monster.

Everything was going according to plan!

---

A week passed in a flash.

During this week, Chen Heng successfully optimized his Asura Bloodline to 95%, with only today's final Optimization remaining to reach 100%.

He also used up quite a few Optimization attempts, but these were nothing in the face of the Asura Bloodline that was about to reach Perfection.

Glancing at the remaining 391 Optimization attempts, Chen Heng crushed the drop of Boiling Blood he had just condensed.

The familiar feeling of Epiphany, Chen Heng once again saw those things twisting the air.

However, this time he didn't go looking for trouble by touching them; instead, he clicked on the Optimization next to the Asura Bloodline.

【Optimization successful, Asura Bloodline (95% → 100%)】

【Bloodline has reached Perfection, acquired complete innate Divine Ability】

【Bloodline has reached Perfection, the Perfected Asura Bloodline has advanced to Perfected Asura Bloodline】

“Wait a minute!” Chen Heng’s eyes widened as he looked at the Perfected Bloodline that had changed from Asura to Asura.

Normally, after a Bloodline evolution, shouldn't it start from 0?

How did it just get maxed out?

【Note: Asura Bloodline automatically advances upon reaching Perfection】

【Asura Bloodline: Neither god, nor ghost, nor human, but an opponent to gods, restraining all existences with ‘divinity’ (damage increased by 50% against existences with ‘divinity’)】

【Asura Undying Body → Blood Prison Asura】

【Blood Prison Asura: Burn Qi and blood to enter the Blood Prison state. The more severe the injury, the greater the power. Upon revival after death, power and speed double (can be stacked infinitely). Consumes 100 points of Qi and blood per minute. Revival consumes 1500 points of Qi and blood】

【At the same time, the hundred-meter radius around the body will transform into a Sea of Blood Hell. All who enter will be corroded by the Sea of Blood Hell, their power and speed will decrease and feed back to the main body. After death, they will be devoured by the Sea of Blood Hell, turning into nourishment for the main body】

“…” Chen Heng looked at his fully Awakened Asura Bloodline, unsure what to say.

This ability, no matter how he looked at it, seemed like something only a top-tier great villain would possess.

And the kind of great villain who appears in the Late Stage and initially thoroughly crushes the protagonist.

“A bit dangerous…”

And this Blood Prison Asura, wasn’t this just a materialization of his martial Dao Heart?

“Is this… considered a Domain?”

Chen Heng shook his head; he would only know by trying it out.

However, this Blood Prison state was too dangerous, directly covering a hundred-meter radius, so he definitely couldn't use it in his own yard.

“Then it’s you, Shang Family.”

Chen Heng squinted, setting his experimental target.

To be honest, using the Blood Prison state against such a low-tier Aristocratic Clan was a bit like using a cannon to kill a mosquito.

But to test out his moves, then the Shang Family would just have to suffer a bit… Meanwhile, the Cui Family scout successfully returned to the Divine Capital.

“You’re back?” Patriarch Cui held a teacup and glanced indifferently at the scout.

“Tell me, what happened that scared you so much?”

“The Xue Family, the Xue Family was wiped out! All 113 members, young and old, none were left!”

The scout’s voice was hoarse, clearly having not had water for many days.

“What!” This news was a bolt from the blue for Patriarch Cui as well.

“The entire Xue Family is dead!?”
