182: Chapter 182 Sneak Attack!

Seeing the Demonic Dragon Phantom stimulated by the aura of Immortal Blood, going mad once again, a ruthless glint flashed in Blood Soul's eyes.

He swallowed the Immortal Blood in his hand in one gulp.

As the Immortal Blood entered his body, immense power instantly exploded within him, making his body subtly unable to bear the strain.

But it was all worth it; Blood Soul's aura surged dramatically in a short time, and his original Mahayana Stage cultivation now touched the threshold of the Tribulation Crossing Stage.

"Three drops of Immortal Blood! I just need to take one drop into the Secret Realm below!"

Blood Soul roared softly, and several blood-red, illusory figures dispersed from his body.

They were all Divine Souls of the Mahayana Stage, including the appearances of the two Body Integration Cultivators he had previously devoured.

After these Divine Souls appeared, they immediately launched a combined attack on the massive Demonic Dragon Soul before them... "Master, I sense an aura of the same origin as mine inside that volcano."

Crimson Prison stood far away, pointing toward the Scarlet Volcano ahead.

His voice carried unprecedented excitement and longing.

They had now arrived at a place completely unmarked on the map, proceeding cautiously based purely on instinct.

Su Mo nodded slightly, gazing solemnly at the volcano.

He could clearly feel bursts of tremors emanating from the volcano before him, accompanied by a heart-palpitating aura.

"It seems your Bow Body is inside."

Su Mo took a deep breath and said in a deep voice.

Then he looked at Hua Rumeng, his tone brooking no argument:

"Wait here. It's too dangerous ahead. With your strength, you probably won't be able to bear it."

Hua Rumeng opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but seeing Su Mo's resolute gaze, she ultimately swallowed her words, just nodding forcefully:

"You... you must be careful!"

She knew what Su Mo said was true; forcing herself to follow would only make her a burden.

After speaking, Su Mo no longer hesitated and slowly advanced toward the volcano ahead with Crimson Prison.

The closer he got to the volcano, the more Su Mo felt something was amiss.

The commotion inside the volcano sounded like Cultivators were fiercely fighting some extremely powerful existence.

"There's someone inside?"

Su Mo's eyes narrowed, and his pace slowed slightly.

Crimson Prison naturally also felt two distinct auras colliding wildly inside the volcano.

"There are two Mahayana Stage auras inside, and their strength is extremely formidable! One is my aura, and the other aura is just somewhat familiar..."

He was extremely anxious; having finally found the location of the Bow Body, he discovered someone was trying to seize it.

Su Mo nodded slightly, signaling him to remain calm.

The more critical the moment, the more calmness was needed.

This volcano seemed to be blessed by some power, actually capable of withstanding the fluctuations of a Mahayana battle.

Su Mo completely concealed his aura, and with the cover of various Laws, he thoroughly blended into the surrounding environment.

He silently arrived at the rim of the volcano and looked down.

He saw a Blood-Robed Cultivator fiercely fighting an illusory Demonic Dragon figure.

Although that demonic Dragon looked strange, Su Mo recognized immediately that it was the manifestation of the chi yu demon bow's Artifact Spirit.

As for that Blood-Robed Cultivator... "Blood Prison Sacred Land?"

That's right!

The Blood-Robed Cultivator was indeed a person from the Blood Prison Sacred Land.

His Cultivation Technique aura and blood robes were identical to the Blood Prison Sacred Land Cultivators Su Mo had previously encountered.

"What is he doing here?! Could he be trying to obtain the Bow Body of the chi yu demon bow?"

At this moment, the battle below had entered a fierce stage.

The Scarlet Qi wrapped around the Blood-Robed Cultivator was so faint it was almost invisible, but the demonic Dragon's state was highly unstable, sometimes sluggish, sometimes violent; defeat was only a matter of time.

Blood Soul suffered considerable injuries; half of his body was struck by the Dragon Breath of the demonic Dragon, and the Fire Element Law contained within it continuously corroded his physical body.

Yet, his eyes grew even more excited.

The Demonic Dragon Phantom was not much better off at this time; its figure had become even more illusory, seemingly about to collapse in the next second.

"Hmph, in the end, I still won!"

Blood Soul waved his large hand, and the final three Divine Soul phantoms charged toward the demonic Dragon.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The simultaneous Self-detonation of the three Mahayana Stage phantoms generated destructive energy that instantly enveloped the entire Demonic Dragon Phantom.

The already illusory Demonic Dragon Phantom couldn't even let out a cry of agony before it was completely annihilated, vanishing into nothingness like a flickering candle in the wind.

The aftermath of the explosion slowly subsided.

Although Blood Soul was shaken by the impact of the Self-detonation, causing him to spit out another mouthful of blood and his aura to become increasingly listless, his eyes were filled with ecstasy as he looked at the dark red Bow Body on the platform ahead.

"Hahaha... Finally... I got it!"

He slowly flew toward the Bow Body, reaching out for it. The scene of the Saint rewarding him already played out in his mind.

However, an unexpected change occurred—

A figure suddenly erupted, attacking Blood Soul with lightning speed!

The ecstatic look on Blood Soul's face instantly froze, and he narrowly managed to dodge.

"Who is it?!"

"Nether Abyss Dragon Emperor?!"

When he clearly saw the Attacker's appearance, his eyes narrowed, and he cried out in surprise.

The newcomer had a robust physique, and his pair of crimson eyes and the Dragon Might emanating from his entire body clearly displayed his identity.

But why would the Nether Abyss Dragon Emperor be here?!

Was he here for the chi yu demon bow?!

Countless conjectures flashed through Blood Soul's mind, and his expression became incredibly grim.

If he were in his Peak State, he wouldn't fear this at all, but now that he had suffered considerable injuries, he had no chance of winning.

Unless he swallowed another Immortal Blood... "Nether Abyss Dragon Emperor, this Seat is Blood Soul, one of the Four Great Envoys of the Blood Prison Sacred Land."

"This item was lost by my Blood Prison Sacred Land. I ask Dragon Emperor to grant us convenience; we will surely offer generous compensation in the future!"

However, upon hearing this, the Nether Abyss Dragon Emperor let out a cold snort of disdain:

"Blood Prison Sacred Land? Hmph, a bunch of rats who hide their heads and tuck their tails. Are they worthy of asking this Seat for convenience?"

The chi yu demon bow was him; he was the chi yu demon bow.

This person dared to covet his body right in front of him... Bah! Despicable!

Without further ado, Crimson Prison immediately transformed into his True Form and blasted out a mouthful of Dragon Breath.

Blood Soul's expression changed drastically, never expecting the opponent to be so overbearing, completely unafraid of the Holy Land's Reputation.

"Boundless Blood Sea!"

He mobilized the remaining Spiritual Power in his body, setting up layers of blood waves in front of him, blocking the attack.

But this incredibly familiar Dragon Breath invigorated him.

"You are... the Bowstring of the chi yu demon bow?!"

Blood Soul stared intently at Crimson Prison, sensing the aura that was exactly the same as the one on the platform, and finally confirmed it!

The look of terror on his face vanished, replaced by an even greater ecstasy than before.

With the Bowstring and Bow Body gathered together, if he obtained both to form a complete Immortal Artifact, even the Saint wouldn't be able to punish him, and perhaps he could advance further!

"Hmph, knowing now is already too late!"

The Killing Intent in Crimson Prison's eyes grew stronger; now that his true identity was exposed, he couldn't let this person live!

A hint of madness flashed in Blood Soul's eyes. He no longer hesitated and took out the last drop of Immortal Blood bestowed by the Saint.

He opened his mouth, about to swallow this drop of Immortal Blood that radiated Terrifying Energy!
