545: Blood Road Opened

The inn reappeared in the ancient city, and the people nearby didn't notice anything unusual.

Previously, the Canglang Clan used a Magic Treasure that could obscure the sky and change the sun.

Now, that Magic Treasure has become a part of Lin Ye's qiankun ring collection.

And it also included all the resources brought by the Canglang Clan.

It could be said that he made a fortune.

“Lin Ye!”

“Master Lin!!!”

Xiang Tiange and Chengde Zhu shouted as they came to Lin Ye’s room. The Canglang Clan had Sealed everyone in the inn. Normally, they shouldn’t have known what happened.

But Xiang Tiange was different; the purple Qi and blood on his body were enough to make him conscious.

After waking Chengde Zhu, the two went directly to Lin Ye’s room and also saw the Guardians around them.

“Hm?!”

Chengde Zhu looked at the Guardians warily, “I’m telling you, don’t mess around! We are from Righteous Qi Sect! If you dare to mess around, I guarantee our Sect will send troops to scatter your ashes!”

The Guardians were somewhat amused.

Did they look that much like bad guys?

However…

The Guardians looked at Xiang Tiange and Chengde Zhu, and after discovering the “unusual” aspects of their bodies, they couldn't help but be surprised.

“No wonder they can stand by Lin Ye’s side. One possesses the Absolute King Body, and it’s an Absolute King Body that has broken its shackles. The other… is this kid cultivating both Confucianism and Demonic Dao? Both of them are peerless Prodigies.”

“Should we say it’s worthy of being the hope of our Human Race? They’ve already begun to gather strength!”

Lin Ye explained the Guardians’ identities to Xiang Tiange and Chengde Zhu.

“Oh! So that’s how it is!”

Chengde Zhu looked at the Guardians with a fawning smile, “Seniors, my name is Chengde Zhu. I was once a lost soul in the mortal world, but after Master Lin’s enlightenment, I have been completely sublimated!”

“Seniors, please don’t take what I just said seriously. Just treat it as a fart.”

“…”

Chengde Zhu’s shamelessness was eye-opening.

Nian Guowang ignored him and instead looked at Lin Ye, saying in a deep voice, “The Blood Road has opened. When do you plan to enter it?”

Upon hearing this, Lin Ye lowered his head and pondered for a moment, then spoke seriously, “Now.”

“Good!”

Nian Guowang nodded and continued, “Entering the Blood Road now is the most dangerous time. After all, the Blood Road has just opened and is relatively unstable, and various Great Power Experts have gathered here.”

“But danger comes with Opportunity. If you want to go in now, then go. We will protect you well.”

“There’s no need for such trouble, Senior.”

Lin Ye directly refused Nian Guowang’s suggestion, “If I were to have all the Seniors accompany me on the Blood Road, I might reach the end quickly, but at the same time, I would lose many things.”

“So, let me brave this path on my own.”

“What boldness!”

All the Guardians began to praise Lin Ye.

This made Chengde Zhu, who hadn’t managed to flatter anyone, grumble, “They call themselves experts! Look at your fawning faces, stealing my job!”

The Guardians currently had no intention of responding to Chengde Zhu; all their gazes were fixed on Lin Ye.

In their view, once Lin Ye stepped onto the Blood Road, it would be the time for him to formally become the hope of the Human Race.

No matter what Lin Ye decided then, they would secretly protect him.

This unparalleled talent from ancient times absolutely could not be cut short!

Bai Lingyun’s beautiful eyes looked at Lin Ye. She naturally wanted to enter the Blood Road with Lin Ye, as their transaction had not yet been completed.

Moreover, if she obtained a Heaven-Defying Opportunity after entering the ancient path, she could also bring it back to the White Fox Clan.

Boom!!!

Just then, a huge sound suddenly erupted between heaven and earth.

“The second time is about to begin!”

The Guardians’ expressions were somewhat solemn. The Blood Road outside the Territory would open a total of nine times. The first batch of people had already entered during the initial opening, and now it was the second opening.

“Let’s go!”

Lin Ye didn't waste any words, leading Xiang Tiange, Chengde Zhu, and Bai Lingyun towards the Blood Road.

All the Guardians also disappeared; they needed to arrange subsequent matters.

…

Outside the ancient city, a vortex gradually appeared in the starry sky. The vortex carried a strong bloody Qi, faintly accompanied by the roar of countless vengeful spirits.

Just looking at the distorted vortex made one feel as if their Divine Soul was about to be sucked in.

Buzz…

Seeing the vortex appear before his eyes, Lin Ye narrowed his gaze slightly. A moment later, he directly jumped in.

“Master Lin, wait for me!”

Chengde Zhu and Xiang Tiange followed closely behind. Bai Lingyun pondered for a moment, then also jumped in.

More and more people arrived at the entrance of this Blood Road. They stood outside, seemingly observing. The Blood Road would open a total of nine times, and this was only the second.

However, those who entered first clearly had the chance to obtain more Opportunities. Of course, the danger was also greater, and everything was unknown.

“I don’t care anymore, I came here to prove the Dao! If I can’t prove the Dao, then let me die inside!”

Swish, swish, swish!

One by one, beings from various races imitated Lin Ye’s actions and were sucked into the vortex.

When Lin Ye opened his eyes again, the scene before him had changed. This was not a dark Universe; instead, it was a desolate land everywhere.

Above the sky, mountains twinkled, and the sun and moon shone together. It seemed like a vast world.

But the faint scent of blood in the air clearly indicated that this was a land of withered bones. The ground was dark red, as if stained with blood.

“Indeed…”

Just as Lin Ye had thought, after entering this Blood Road, everyone was separated again. It made sense; if everyone entered the same place, there would be no need to go further inside—battles would erupt right at the entrance.

Lin Ye looked up at the starry sky where the sun and moon shone together. The stars were like flowing rivers, moving towards the end of the Blood Road.

This meant that by following the direction of the moving stars, one would eventually find the so-called end of the Dao.

Rumble…

Just then, the dark red desolate land suddenly began to shake.

Crack! Crack!

Accompanied by a series of piercing sounds, the dark red earth gradually cracked, and from within those fissures, one withered bone and rotten corpse after another crawled out.

Sensing the scent of flesh and blood, all the rotten corpses charged towards Lin Ye.

The tattered rhomboid marks on their foreheads proved their identity.

These rotten corpses were the Spirit Race members that Lin Ye had slain back then!

He hadn't expected this path to truly be formed from their blood and bones.

“I was able to slaughter and tear all of you apart back then, and I can do the same now…”

Lin Ye looked at the charging rotten corpses, clenching his hands into Sword Intent!

Swish!!!
