134: Blood beast breeding game

As the time for the Blood Sect Game approached, the Rapid Shadow Palace had already negotiated with the Blood Sect.

The Rapid Shadow Palace participants in this game, besides the disciples with certain status and position like Cheng Tianhao and Meng Que from Tree Shadow City, also included sequential disciples from four other cities.

The total number of participants reached thirty.

That day, led by a Blood Martial Realm high-ranking official from the Rapid Shadow Palace, they traveled by flying boat to the location of the Blood Sect Game.

Due to his relationship with Cheng Tianhao, Xiao Shi also successfully obtained a participation slot.

Through this, he also met the sequential disciples from the other four cities.

All these sequential disciples from these cities also possessed Shadow Seeds.

However, their Shadow Seeds were not the same as the Shadow Seeds from Tree Shadow City.

The Shadow Seeds of Tree Shadow City were all Tree Shadows.

Their Shadow Seeds, on the other hand, originated from the characteristics of their respective cities.

For example, the Shadow Seed of Sword Shadow City was Sword Shadow.

The Shadow Seed of Shield Shadow City was Shield Shadow.

Among the participants this time, whether they were sequential disciples or disciples like Meng Que, their cultivation had all reached Qi Warrior Realm Great Perfection.

And most of them had basically completed the condensation and combination of their Qi Vortex.

They could be said to have reached the peak of the Qi Martial Realm.

Although the flying boat they were riding was far less grand in scale than the one Xiao Shi and the others took when they first arrived in Tian Dou Province, it was still quite impressive.

Its speed was extremely fast.

However, the entire Tian Dou Province was vast, far incomparable to the Seven Stars Province where Xiao Shi had stayed before.

After the entire flying boat traveled for most of the day, they arrived above a temple.

This temple was not large, exuding an ancient aura, as if it had existed for many years.

Around the temple, there were also hundreds of tall boulders.

These boulders varied in appearance and were placed haphazardly around, but in reality, if one carefully observed the placement of each boulder, they would discover that it contained the changes of heaven and earth.

It was, astonishingly, a powerful formation!

Such a formation... the mere fluctuations it emitted caused everyone to be extremely startled; even the Blood Martial Realm strong expert leading the team secretly gasped upon feeling it.

The one who could have set it up must be an existence above the Blood Martial Realm!

At this moment, around this boulder formation, two forces had already gathered.

They were the other two first-tier forces in Tian Dou Province.

In Tian Dou Province, the Rapid Shadow Palace was merely one of the first-tier forces, not the only one.

Gathered below now were Sky Trace Pavilion and Extreme Fire Sect, who were also first-tier forces alongside the Rapid Shadow Palace.

The Qi Warrior Realm Great Perfection participants from these two forces for the Blood Sect Game also numbered around thirty.

There were both men and women, and they were all young.

Although their expressions were calm, one could feel the arrogance they had restrained.

After all, being able to raise their cultivation to Qi Warrior Realm Great Perfection at their age, they could all be called martial arts geniuses.

This meant they didn't need to show off; merely seeing them was enough to reveal their excellence and extraordinariness.

The Qi Warrior Realm Great Perfection disciples of these two forces were positioned at opposite ends, clearly distinct, and the aura between them was also different.

From a distance, the Qi Warrior Realm Great Perfection disciples of Sky Trace Pavilion all had a vertical mark on their foreheads.

From this vertical mark, a mysterious aura that made people palpitate emanated.

This gave each of them a strong sense of mystery.

Compared to the mystery of Sky Trace Pavilion, everyone from the Extreme Fire Sect appeared extremely violent.

Regardless of gender, they all had fiery red hair like flames, even their eyebrows were red.

And scorching aura continuously emanated from their bodies.

This made the temperature in their area much higher than elsewhere, and it was permeated by a layer of crimson aura, as if it had condensed into a ball of flames in mid-air.

Just this kind of aura was definitely not something the forces of Seven Stars Province could possess back then.

As these two forces waited, suddenly, all the Qi Warrior Realm Great Perfection disciples from these two forces, as well as the Blood Martial Realm strong experts who led them here, all looked up at the sky.

They all saw the flying boat whistling down from the firmament.

As the flying boat descended, the people from the Rapid Shadow Palace also appeared before the Qi Warrior Realm Great Perfection disciples of Sky Trace Pavilion and Extreme Fire Sect.

In the eyes of those from Sky Trace Pavilion and Extreme Fire Sect, the disciples of the Rapid Shadow Palace also seemed very mysterious and extraordinary.

Especially the Rapid Shadow Palace, in order not to be inferior in momentum to these two forces, they all revealed their Shadow Seeds.

Now, with the arrival of these three first-tier forces of Tian Dou Province, suddenly, in the distant sky, thunder and lightning rumbled and rolled.

A huge, lightning-covered arm directly tore open the void, appearing out of thin air!

With the appearance of this giant arm, countless lightning bolts spread out with a rumbling sound, tearing through the clouds, making the entire giant arm seem to forcefully descend and appear above everyone.

The arrivals... were precisely Lei Miao Temple, one of the four major first-tier forces in Tian Dou Province!

Almost at the instant this giant arm appeared, figures leaped down from the arm at an extremely fast speed, heading straight for the ground.

Their number even reached nearly forty people!

Among these nearly forty people, all of them were burly monks, wearing coarse cloth robes.

There were arcs of electricity moving around their bodies.

Their aura was strong, emitting a powerful and domineering energy fluctuation.

The moment Xiao Shi saw these monks from Lei Miao Temple, he was surprised to discover that all these monks from Lei Miao Temple were… Body Cultivators!!

This was the first time Xiao Shi had seen Body Cultivators other than himself!

Although the level of body cultivation of these monks was far from reaching Xiao Shi's intensity, their physical bodies, under body cultivation, were far stronger than those of people with the same realm of cultivation.

If there were only one or two Body Cultivators among them, Xiao Shi wouldn't have been so surprised.

After all, he had already learned upon arriving in Tian Dou Province that there were many heavenly treasures there.

It was not as barren as Seven Stars Province.

And as his own realm and horizons improved, Xiao Shi also realized that heavenly treasures were not as rare as he had initially understood.

It could be said that the heavenly treasures in Tian Dou Province would inevitably lead to the emergence of Body Cultivators here.

But even so, there shouldn't be so many Body Cultivators!

The nearly forty monks from Lei Miao Temple who had arrived were all Body Cultivators!

The heavenly treasures required for this, even with the number of heavenly treasures in Tian Dou Province, might not be enough.

This made Xiao Shi very surprised.

“The strength of Lei Miao Temple lies in the fact that every one of them is a Body Cultivator!” Cheng Tianhao whispered to Xiao Shi from the side.

“It is said that they possess a mysterious ancient method that allows them to cultivate their bodies even without heavenly treasures!”

Can one cultivate the body without heavenly treasures?

Xiao Shi was startled.

This was the first time he had heard of body cultivation being possible without heavenly treasures.

This couldn't help but make him very interested in Lei Miao Temple's ancient body cultivation method.

With the appearance of these monks from Lei Miao Temple, a powerful pressure erupted.

The last one to descend from the huge arm above was a burly, white-bearded old monk.

From the aura fluctuations emanating from him, even the Blood Martial Realm strong experts of the other three forces had slightly solemn expressions, all feeling a great sense of oppression.

After the white-bearded old monk arrived, he did not pay attention to the people of the other three forces, but instead looked directly at the void.

His voice was deep and a little hoarse.

“Everyone is here, can we begin?”

As he spoke, a mysterious figure in a blood robe suddenly walked out of the void.

His entire figure was enveloped in the blood robe, and within the blood robe was a blood-colored mist.

This made the blood-robed figure incredibly mysterious.

Among all the people present, no one could discern his cultivation from this blood-robed figure.

They weren't even sure if it was a person at all.

After all, it seemed like only a blood robe floating there, with no limbs or head visible, only the pervasive blood-colored mist.

“Of course.” After the blood robe appeared, a female voice came from within it.

“The game you will be participating in this time is the Blood Beast Rearing Game. In the game, what you need to do is to use the resources within the game area to rear your Blood Beasts.”

“You will have one month to rear them.”

“After one month, the one whose Blood Beast has grown the best will win.”

“If you can rear your Blood Beast to maturity, then you can take it out of the game area.”

“Here, I can make a promise.”

“Once a participant rears a Blood Beast to maturity, regardless of whether they win or not, they will obtain this Blood Beast.”

Upon hearing this, joy appeared in everyone's eyes.

They never expected that this Blood Sect Game would actually be about rearing Blood Beasts!

And as long as they reared the Blood Beast to maturity, even if they didn't win, they would still get a Blood Beast!

This made them very excited.

However, the Blood Martial Realm martial artists of these four first-tier forces did not show any joy.

Although they did not understand the process of rearing Blood Beasts, given the rarity of Blood Beasts in Tian Dou Province, it was obvious that the difficulty of rearing them would be extremely high.

Rearing them to maturity would definitely not be a simple or easy task.

“This game follows the same rules as previous ones.”

“The winning party will have the right to purchase Blood Beasts.”

“Furthermore, I must remind you that not only these four forces are participating in this Blood Beast Rearing Game, but also several Demonic Path forces…”

“It's just that their entry points into the game area are different from yours,” the voice from within the blood robe said.

No one was surprised by this.

Even before they arrived, they already knew that the Blood Sect, as a neutral force, treated both the righteous and demonic paths equally.

And not gathering the two at one entrance was also a consideration, as they might immediately start fighting upon meeting each other.

“As for the specific details of Blood Beast rearing…”

“You will naturally know once you enter the game area.”

“So now…”

“You have one minute to prepare. After one minute, I will open the entrance to the game area.”

Under the instructions of the voice from within the blood robe, everyone had a preliminary understanding of the game.

Since the content of each game was different and rarely repeated, this meant they couldn't formulate strategies based on the game content before arriving.

For instance, this Blood Beast rearing game had never appeared before.

One minute passed quickly.

Buzz!

The temple within the entire giant stone formation suddenly burst forth with a five-colored light at this moment, and as the light spread, the giant stone formation also violently vibrated.

The pressure emanating from within it suddenly sharply decreased, allowing everyone to step inside.

“The game entrance has opened,” the voice from within the blood robe said.

As soon as the words left its mouth, the nearly forty monks from Lei Miao Temple immediately rushed into the giant stone formation at high speed, heading straight for the central temple.

“Why are monks all so impatient…” Xiao Shi couldn't help but grumble inwardly.

Soon, the people from Sky Trace Pavilion and Extreme Fire Sect also rushed forward quickly.

The disciples of the Rapid Shadow Palace also rapidly approached.

Until they reached the center of the giant stone formation, the moment they stepped into the temple, the temple's light dissipated, the giant stone formation rumbled, and the pressure rose again, preventing outsiders from approaching.

The Blood Martial Realm strong experts of the four forces all remained outside, unable to enter.

And everyone who stepped into the temple only felt a chaotic scene before their eyes.

The next moment, they appeared out of thin air in an independent world.

This was a blood-colored world.

The sky was blood-colored, and the ground was also blood-colored.

It seemed that blood-color… was the only color here!

And everyone who entered here appeared in different locations within this place.

At the same time, in front of each of them, there was a blood-colored egg.

The entire blood-colored egg was about half a meter long, with veins like blood vessels on its surface.

At first glance, the entire blood-colored egg looked like a heart.

The moment everyone saw this egg, they all realized that their first step here was to hatch this egg, thereby hatching the Blood Beast within the egg.

The method of hatching was to use their respective Qi Strength.

Different Qi Strength would cause the Blood Beast within the egg to appear in different forms, which was the first step in rearing the Blood Beast.

This made everyone excited, and they all began to hatch the blood egg using their own Qi Strength.

Xiao Shi, however, looked at the blood egg in front of him and did not rush to hatch it immediately.

He was contemplating whether there were other ways to hatch it besides using Qi Strength, such as hatching it with the Crimson Tiger Totem!

Although the hatching of the blood egg was not enough to form a Blood Source, it could prepare for the subsequent formation of the Blood Source.

If it could be hatched with the Crimson Tiger Totem, that would naturally be the best choice, more suitable than Xiao Shi hatching it with Grand Yin Qi.
