549: Chapter Bloody Boundary, Critical Situation

On the vast and endless Blood-colored Grassland, at a certain boundary between its outer and Inner Perimeter, lies a basin.

This basin is like a mysterious world, firmly enveloped by a dense, almost tangible blood-colored halo.

This seems like a natural barrier, completely isolating it from the outside world, exuding a mysterious and dangerous aura.

"Hold on, as long as the Second Seat breaks through, we can block those guys outside and force our way out again."

Zhou Rong's deep and resolute voice echoed in this area.

At first mention, this name might sound unfamiliar to most, but if the Chief among the Blood Disciple Eight Seats is mentioned, many outside would likely know.

Thinking back, under the leadership of Zhu Jianhua, a group of Blood Disciple left Great Xia to venture Outside the Territory.

In the world Outside the Territory, danger and Opportunity are everywhere, and they constantly improved their strength by killing demon beasts.

However, as their slaughter increased, they finally attracted the attention of the Demon Clan's Great Demons.

Under the relentless pursuit and attacks of the Great Demons, they had to avoid their sharp edge, and by chance, they arrived at this mysterious Life Forbidden Zone - the Blood-colored Grassland.

Ever since they stepped into this Blood-colored Grassland, they were astonished to find that their bodies seemed to have become sponges, greedily absorbing the mysterious energy contained within this heaven and earth at all times.

This power slowly permeated their physical bodies, like trickling streams converging into a river, allowing their physical bodies to be significantly enhanced.

Moreover, the Blood-colored Grassland is not an ordinary grassland as understood by common people; it is filled with various strange Forbidden Land Creatures.

What's even more amazing is that after these Forbidden Land Creatures are killed, the energy contained within their bodies can be almost completely absorbed by the Blood Disciple and transformed into their own power.

Because of this, Zhu Jianhua felt that this place was simply a natural training ground, an excellent place to improve one's strength.

Especially when the spiritual energy tide arrived, the entire Blood-colored Grassland seemed to be ignited, and a tangible blood energy slowly rose.

The blood energy was so dense it was like rolling red mist, spreading across the entire grassland.

Zhu Jianhua had previously absorbed a large number of Forbidden Land Creatures, and now with the assistance of this vast blood energy, he smoothly advanced to the King Realm.

However, the other members of the Blood Disciple Eight Seats were not so lucky; except for Chief Zhou Rong, everyone else had only reached the Martial Lord Peak Realm, and Zhou Rong had only reached the Half-King Realm.

In order to obtain more Breakthrough opportunities, Zhu Jianhua finally decided to enter the Inner Perimeter of the Forbidden Ground within the Blood-colored Grassland alone.

This separation lasted for several months, and there has been no news since.

And now, Zhou Rong has broken through to the King Realm, and even the Second Seat has reached a critical moment for Breakthrough.

It's just that for some unknown reason, as if a hornet's nest had been poked, several terrifying King Realm existences were suddenly attracted, along with countless Forbidden Land Creatures like a tide.

The pressure brought by such a powerful lineup is imaginable; even Zhou Rong, facing this situation, had no certainty of defeating the opponent.

Therefore, Zhou Rong could only rely on a portion of the special power that Zhu Jianhua had injected into the eight people before he left, combined with his own King Realm power.

The two fused with each other, finally condensing into a powerful blood-colored light pillar that enveloped this basin.

The role of this blood-colored light pillar is crucial; it not only has to resist the countless enemies outside, but it also acts like a signal sent outwards, indicating their location to their Master.

Deep down in Zhou Rong's heart, he firmly believed that if their Master could see the distress signal sent by this blood-colored light pillar, they would definitely come to their aid without hesitation.

"Chief, our qi and blood can't last much longer. If Lord Second Seat doesn't break through yet, we won't even have a chance to resist!"

The Eighth Seat looked at Zhou Rong with an anxious face, then glanced back at the many Blood Disciple behind him with a hint of despair.

At this moment, the qi and blood of these Blood Disciple were violently surging within their bodies, like burning flames, continuously pouring into the blood-colored barrier.

But as their qi and blood were outputted, they found that the flesh and blood all over their bodies began to gradually wither, rapidly shriveling like flowers that had lost water. This was clearly burning their own life force.

"Believe in the Second Seat, and believe in my Master!"

Although Zhou Rong was also full of worry in his heart, he still forced himself to be calm and conveyed his belief to everyone with a firm voice.

Outside, nine King Realm Forbidden Land Creatures were staring at the blood-colored barrier like a pack of hungry wolves, eyeing it covetously.

Looking closely, this included four Yang Shou Ren (Goat Beastman); their bodies were covered in thick wool, and their eyes gleamed with cruel and greedy light.

Two bull-headed people, their massive bodies like small mountains, with cold light radiating from their horns.

Two hippo-headed people, their fat bodies looked somewhat comical, but their huge mouths revealed a dangerous aura.

And one rabbit-headed person, although seemingly weaker, their eyes were full of malicious intent.

These nine ferocious-looking fellows, their whole bodies surging with blood energy like flames, their greed was practically flowing out of their eyes.

"Hehehe, such sweet flesh and blood, I really want to taste it!"

One of the Yang Shou Ren (Goat Beastman) let out a spine-chilling strange laugh, revealing sharp teeth in its large mouth, and its saliva seemed about to flow out.

"I can barely hold back, damn it, they've delayed us for so long."

A hippo-headed person humanly waved its short, thick arm, its face full of impatience.

"What's the rush? There's a King Realm inside. Do you want to face his temporary counterattack first? It's better to just wear down their strength like this."

A bull-headed person said in a booming voice, its sound spreading through the air like thunder.

"Exactly, although someone inside is breaking through, isn't it more than enough for us to devour those two?"

Another bull-headed person also nodded in agreement, the greed in its eyes becoming even more apparent.

These King Realm Forbidden Land Creatures chatted among themselves, their words undoubtedly revealing their desire for the Blood Disciple, wanting to devour them to enhance their own strength.

But at the same time, there was a hint of apprehension, as the power within that blood-colored barrier was not to be underestimated.

"Is that guy really dead? He won't come out and cause us trouble, right?"

The rabbit-headed person looked towards the blood-colored Inner Perimeter, its eyes showing clear apprehension and fear.

Its small eyeballs kept darting around, as if recalling something terrifying.

"Hmph, back then that guy just broke through three stages ahead of us.

Otherwise, how could he have safely entered the Inner Perimeter, and even less likely could he have allowed his subordinates to devour so many of our subordinates and break through to the King Realm."

A bull-headed person snorted disdainfully, expelling two streams of rough air from its large nostrils.

The person they were speaking of was precisely Zhu Jianhua. Back then, before Zhu Jianhua entered the Inner Perimeter, he made quite a stir.

He acted like a cold God of Death on the outer perimeter of the Blood-colored Grassland, carrying out a great purge.
