541: Enter the Blood Realm

Facing Black Impermanence's full-strength blow, the Lord of the Blood Realm merely shook his head contemptuously, his eyes devoid of any ripples.

He slowly raised his right hand, extended a finger, and tapped it gently. A faint yet incredibly powerful crimson light burst from his fingertip, colliding with that massive crimson Saber Qi.

"Crack!" With a crisp sound, Black Impermanence's pride and joy, the Blood Soul Saber, shattered instantly before this faint crimson light, like fragile glass, turning into countless tiny fragments that scattered across the ground.

The massive crimson Saber Qi was also instantly shattered and dissipated into the air.

Before Black Impermanence could react, the Lord of the Blood Realm tapped his finger lightly again, and a beam of crimson light instantly pierced through Black Impermanence's chest.

Black Impermanence's body stiffened violently, and the madness and anger in his eyes were instantly replaced by despair. He looked down at the bloody hole in his chest, from which blood gushed continuously, while the evil power and true essence within him dissipated like a receding tide.

With a "thud," Black Impermanence fell to his knees, covered in blood, his aura weakened to the extreme, no longer possessing his former arrogance and madness.

The Lord of the Blood Realm looked down at him from above, his tone carrying a hint of impatience and warning: "Ignorant! You, a mere Cultivator of the Deity Transformation Realm, dare to show off your meager skills before this Seat? You are making a fool of yourself!"

He paused, then continued: "If it weren't for the fact that you refined nine Blood Pearls and condensed the blood god pearl, I could not kill you for the time being—otherwise, the Blood Sacrifice ritual would be terminated, and I would be unable to open the Blood Realm smoothly. Accept your fate. Being a Protector of the Blood Realm for me is not shameful. As long as you are obedient and assist me, I can guarantee that you will successfully achieve Ascension in the future. Within the Blood Realm, you will be above all others, second only to me, possessing endless power and authority!"

Black Impermanence lay on the ground, his heart filled with unwillingness and annoyance, but he also knew that things had reached this point, and further resistance would be useless.

The Lord of the Blood Realm's power was too overwhelming; he was simply no match. If he did not agree, he would only end up dead without a burial place. Rather than dying a miserable death, it would be better to submit for now, and later look for opportunities to seize back the blood god pearl and take control of the Blood Realm.

Thinking of this, Black Impermanence struggled to lift his head, kowtowing heavily to the Lord of the Blood Realm, a fawning smile on his face: "Thank you, Lord of the Blood Realm, for sparing my life! Your subordinate will naturally give his all, serving you loyally and faithfully, with absolutely no disloyalty!"

The Lord of the Blood Realm looked at him, a hint of satisfaction appearing in his eyes, and he nodded slightly: "Hmm, those who recognize the current circumstances are wise. Do your job well, and I will not treat you poorly."

Having said this, his gaze turned to the blood god pearl hovering above Murong Gu's head, and then he looked at the blood-covered, unconscious Murong Gu, his tone carrying a hint of gravity: "Very well, the blood god pearl has already taken form, and the Blood Realm has been created. I cannot stay in this Mortal Realm for too long; I must return to the Blood Realm as soon as possible."

He paused, then continued: "This boy must be taken to the Blood Realm. The blood god pearl was generated within his body and is bound to his Divine Soul, so he cannot die yet. After I return to the Blood Realm, I will find a way to seize the Origin of the blood god pearl within him and completely master the power of the blood god pearl."

Before the words had faded, the Lord of the Blood Realm waved his hand, and a crimson light enveloped the unconscious Murong Gu, gently lifting him and suspending him in mid-air.

Subsequently, he sternly ordered Black Impermanence: "Black Impermanence, take your Black Wind Stockade Disciples and follow me back to the Blood Realm immediately! The rift to the Blood Realm is unstable and is about to close!"

"Yes, this subordinate obeys!" Black Impermanence kowtowed and replied hurriedly, then struggled to stand up, shouting towards outside the Snow God Hall. Over a thousand Black Wind Stockade Disciples immediately flooded into the Snow God Hall, standing neatly behind Black Impermanence with respectful expressions.

At this moment, a huge spatial rift gradually tore open above the Snow God Hall. From within the rift, a dense crimson aura and spatial power radiated; this was the gate leading to the Blood Realm.

The Lord of the Blood Realm flew towards the gate first, followed closely by Black Impermanence, with over a thousand Black Wind Stockade Disciples trailing behind.

The unconscious Murong Gu, wrapped in crimson light, followed behind them, slowly flying towards the gate.

"A Gu!!" Murong Xue rushed towards Murong Gu's direction like a madwoman, extending her hands, wanting to grab him, but her hands could only pass through that crimson light, unable to grasp anything. She watched as Murong Gu was gradually dragged towards the gate, her eyes filled with despair and pain, tears gushing out, her voice hoarse and broken, "A Gu!"

But her cries had no effect whatsoever.

Black Impermanence had no time to kill these remnants of the Falling Snow Pavilion and hurried into the Blood Realm;

The Lord of the Blood Realm also entered the Blood Realm without the slightest hesitation;

Over a thousand Black Wind Stockade Disciples flooded into the gate like a tide.

A moment later, their figures completely disappeared into the gate.

The gate gradually closed, finally disappearing completely above the Snow God Hall, and the crimson aura and pressure in the air dissipated along with it.

The Snow God Hall instantly returned to silence, a silence so profound that only Murong Xue's desperate crying and the sobbing of the Falling Snow Pavilion Disciples remained.

Everything seemed to be over, but what remained was the collapsed Snow God Hall, corpses and blood littering the ground, and endless despair and pain.

Immortal Master Ling Shuang stood in place, looking at the wreckage everywhere, looking at the despairing and broken Murong Xue, her eyes filled with weariness and heartache. She slowly closed her eyes, her heart filled with guilt—she had failed to protect the Falling Snow Pavilion, failed to protect her Disciples, and failed to keep Murong Gu. But she also knew that this catastrophe had not truly ended; the threat of the Lord of the Blood Realm still existed, and with Murong Gu taken into the Blood Realm, his life or death was uncertain. They still had a hard battle to fight in the future.

Murong Xue knelt on the ground, watching the direction where the gate had disappeared, her vision blurred by tears, only endless despair and obsession remaining in her heart. She clenched her fists tightly, her nails digging deep into her palms, blood seeping out. She muttered to herself, her voice weak but firm: "A Gu, wait for me. No matter where you are in the Blood Realm, no matter how many dangers lie ahead, I will definitely find you, and I will definitely bring you back!"
