477: Sudden change
Mo Yunshang faced off against Sect Leader Shi.
Ding Fu faced off against Leng Qianjie.
The four of them started a great battle within the cave; fortunately, the cave was spacious enough, otherwise, there would have been no room to maneuver.
Looking at Lin Ye's side, the remaining three people surrounded him.
Among them were a Beast Descendants, the Clan Chief of the Xuanming Bird clan, Xuan Yue, and two Sect Masters of the Demonic Path.
One of those Demonic Path Sect Masters was Blood Venerable, who possessed the cultivation of a Half-Step Supreme.
He was also the initiator of this Opportunity.
Blood Venerable looked at Lin Ye with undisguised greed; that forbidden Demonic Technique was simply too terrifying, actually capable of devouring a person's spiritual power, Dao Rhyme, and even their Qi and blood.
When Lin Ye had just said that everyone was his Opportunity, the other Great Power Experts had looked angry, as if they had been insulted.
Only this Blood Venerable believed that Lin Ye was right; if he possessed this forbidden Demonic Technique, he would certainly also treat all living beings as an Opportunity!
If he possessed such a forbidden Demonic Technique, wouldn't he soon be able to become a true Supreme, and perhaps even glimpse that path to Dao enlightenment?
Blood Venerable's eyes flashed, and then, amidst Xuan Yue's shocked gaze, a blood-red hand directly pierced through the chest of the remaining Demonic Path Sect Master.
Before that Sect Master could react, blood-colored Dao Rhyme erupted from Blood Venerable's body, directly severing the life force within that Demonic Path Sect Master.
A surprise attack, combined with having a higher cultivation than the opponent, meant that the Demonic Path Sect Master had no time to react before dying right there.
Xuan Yue hurriedly retreated a few steps, and with a vigilant expression, said, "Blood Venerable, what is the meaning of this?! Are you actually one of them?"
Blood Venerable did not pay attention to Xuan Yue, but continued to stare at Lin Ye, saying softly, "Fellow Daoist, I wonder if this sincerity is enough?"
"Oh?"
Lin Ye looked at Blood Venerable with interest; he had suddenly done this, and it caught even Lin Ye off guard as to what he was trying to do.
But since he had already done it, he must surely have his own purpose.
Thinking of this, Lin Ye slowly said, "Speak, what do you want to do?"
Hearing Lin Ye's question, the blood light in Blood Venerable's eyes flared: "Hahahaha, since we are both of the Demonic Path, we should naturally share in the blessings. Fellow Daoist, you possess such cultivation at such a young age, you must be a hidden Disciple from one of those large Sects, right?"
"How about this, I will join forces with you to slaughter everyone in here. Of course, I will help you save that woman."
"I don't need the Opportunity in the cave either. I only ask Fellow Daoist for one thing: teach me the Demonic Technique you possess. Of course, I won't take it for free. Joining forces with you to slaughter these people is just a little bit of my sincerity."
"All my life's collection is in this qiankun ring, and there is even a broken Supreme artifact. I will give all of this to you."
"In the future, if you need to devour living beings, I can even help you find them! This kind of transaction should be very favorable to you, right?"
"Blood Refinement!!!"
Xuan Yue on the side roared. He had not expected this Blood Venerable to betray them at this moment for the sake of a Demonic Technique.
A Half-Step Supreme, plus a mysterious Lin Ye, not to mention Fatty Ding and Mo Yunshang; once a fight broke out, they would inevitably face death.
"Noisy!"
Blood Venerable looked at Xuan Yue with cold eyes, as if looking at a corpse.
"A mere beast dares to call my name directly? Fine, I will slaughter you too and present you to Fellow Daoist!"
Whoosh...
A wave of bloody stench suddenly filled the entire cave. Drops of bright red fresh blood began to seep out from the cracked earth. The blood became more and more abundant, forming a pool of blood, and finally, it turned into a sea of blood.
Severed limbs and arms constantly floated on the sea of blood; one could imagine how many people had died at the hands of this Blood Venerable.
And it wasn't a simple death, but one of extreme torment.
Lin Ye narrowed his eyes slightly; he felt a familiar aura within this sea of blood.
One Page Scripture?
The One Page Scripture left behind by Killing Life Tathagata?
No, this should only be a broken chapter. No wonder the Great Power Experts who arrived here were all at the Peak Saint Realm, while only Blood Refinement was a Half-Step Supreme. It turned out he had obtained a portion of the Killing Life Tathagata's Legacy from somewhere.
It was that Legacy that made him stronger than his peers.
As the sea of blood emerged, Blood Refinement's body was also wrapped in a layer of thick blood plasma, making his whole person look incredibly eerie.
"Xuan Yue, don't you go losing any limbs. After all, you are a gift I am offering to Fellow Daoist. If you are missing a piece of flesh, that would be missing an Opportunity for him!"
"To make up a greeting gift for him! Then I'll have to trouble you!"
Boom!!!
As he spoke, the sea of blood surged with layers of giant waves. Above the sky outside, a blood sun appeared across the horizon, emitting strands of demonic might, which was extremely terrifying.
Inside the cave, Blood Refinement waved his large hand, and the waves of blood splashed ten thousand feet high, accompanied by blood-colored light, slamming fiercely towards Xuan Yue.
"Do you think you can succeed!!!"
Xuan Yue roared, and two black bird wings appeared behind his back. As they flapped, all kinds of profound runes appeared in the air. Within those black feathers, a strand of crimson light seemed to be faintly mixed in.
The flickering of that crimson light caused the flames on Xuan Yue's body to flare up, and the cry of a Phoenix resounded through the cave, as if a True Phoenix had been reborn.
An ancient aura swept out, traversing in all directions.
"True Phoenix Feather?"
Blood Refinement saw Xuan Yue's transformation, and the corners of his mouth lifted slightly: "You still have such good things? It seems the greeting gift for Fellow Daoist has increased by one more item! Use it lightly, don't damage my greeting gift!"
After saying that, Blood Refinement clapped his hands together.
Boom!!!
The sea of blood that had splashed ten thousand feet of waves suddenly began to boil. Millions of broken blood swords rose from the sea of blood. Looking closely, every blood sword used blood as the blade and bone as the hilt.
This was because after Blood Refinement killed a living being, he would take the hardest bone from the killed being, and then forcefully refine it into a blood sword.
Therefore, every blood sword carried intense resentment, emitting sounds of ghosts crying and wolves howling.
Swish swish swish!!!
The sound of breaking through the air rang out continuously. Those millions of blood swords pierced through the Void Realm, all shooting towards Xuan Yue, dragging along patches of blood-colored waves. The blood light was bright and dazzling, but the aura was exceptionally eerie.
"True Phoenix Seal!!!"
Facing the millions of blood swords rushing towards him, Xuan Yue roared, the feathers on his body standing on end, revealing that True Phoenix feather.
The Phoenix's cry swept through the Void Realm.
A large seal burning with heavenly fire fell down with a destructive aura.
