215: Chapter 215 Old Friends

In the span of a breath, the buddhist light was about to envelop his entire body.

Just as Crimson Vastness was about to be completely lost, the Nirvana Incarnation withdrew its finger, and the buddhist light receded like a tide.

"Urghhh—"

Crimson Vastness opened his eyes, a trace of lingering fear remaining in them.

Under that eerie Aura, he was completely unable to resist, only able to watch bit by bit as everything of his was devoured.

Looking at the two Incarnations behind Su Mo, Crimson Vastness could not help but take half a step back.

"Little friend, have you misunderstood something? I only wanted to ask you to help me find a Spirit Medicine... I have no intention of obtaining Immortal blood!"

He had just been shocked for a moment and had just wanted to explain, but he had not expected the Nirvana Incarnation to point a finger at him, leaving him without even a chance to speak.

Su Mo was stunned upon hearing this, then smiled helplessly:

"Is that so? You should have said so earlier."

With a thought, the Nirvana Incarnation and the Blood Demon Incarnation instantly vanished, and that heart-palpitating Aura disappeared along with them.

Crimson Vastness heaved a sigh of relief and smiled bitterly as he tidied his robes:

"Little friend, your temper... is perhaps a bit too impatient."

Su Mo rubbed his nose and chuckled:

"I've encountered quite a few frustrating things recently, so I overreacted."

The atmosphere immediately eased.

Crimson Vastness's attitude became much more humble; he even personally poured Su Mo a cup of wine.

Su Mo raised an eyebrow:

"What is the Spirit Medicine you are looking for? The Old Ancestor of the Hegemon Body Sect also asked me to help him find a Spirit Medicine, but I didn't find it."

"Little friend, you may not know this, but every Forbidden Ground in the Immortal Burial Battlefield nurtures a unique Spirit Medicine. It contains a trace of something more fundamental than Law. If one absorbs and comprehends it, there might be a glimmer of an opportunity for a Breakthrough."

This statement surprised Su Mo a little.

Could it be that besides the Blood Sea Demon Venerable and the Great Nirvana Buddha, there are other paths to reach the Tribulation Crossing Stage?

"How do you know? Has anyone succeeded?"

Upon hearing this, Crimson Vastness smiled bitterly:

"I will not hide it from you, little friend. I obtained one before, and I did indeed perceive a glimmer of opportunity from it, but it was too thin to support a real Breakthrough."

"Then can't you go look for it yourself? A Mahayana Stage Cultivator is, after all, much stronger than a Soul Transformation Stage Cultivator like me."

"I am severely injured, my Lifespan is running low, and the Dao wounds from back then have yet to heal. My current strength is less than one-tenth of what it was..."

Su Mo had anticipated this long ago. These Mahayana Stage Cultivators, not knowing what they had encountered, were all in a half-dead state.

However, Crimson Vastness's words also provided Su Mo with another line of thought.

The strength of the Great Nirvana Buddha and the Blood Sea Demon Venerable is definitely not as simple as just newly ascended Immortals. Relying solely on two Incarnations that follow their Dao, they are absolutely no match.

It seems this Spirit Medicine must be obtained...

Just at this moment, a wolf-tribe demon Cultivator wearing armor hurried into the great hall.

"Demon Emperor, the Crimson Blood Guards, the Roaring Army, the Heavy Hoof Army... all Cultivators above the Soul Transformation Stage have assembled!"

The imposing voice immediately made the great hall fall silent.

A sharp glint flashed in Crimson Radiance's eyes. The expression of happiness from the family reunion just a moment ago was swept away, replaced by the majesty belonging to the Lord of the Myriad Beast Kingdom:

"Pass down the order: march to the Demon Suppressing City immediately!"

"Yes!"

The wolf-tribe demon Cultivator accepted the order and left, his footsteps resounding with strength.

Su Mo turned to Crimson Radiance and asked:

"The Myriad Beast Kingdom also received a call for help?"

Crimson Radiance nodded with a grave expression:

"Indeed. As a member of the Central Region, my Myriad Beast Kingdom naturally will not sit idly by."

Su Mo pondered for a moment:

"Since that is the case, I will take my leave first."

Seeing that even the Myriad Beast Kingdom had dispatched reinforcements, he could not help but feel a bit curious about the current situation in the Immortal Burial Battlefield.

After speaking, Su Mo immediately turned into an Escape Light and landed on the back of the Two-Headed Phoenix.

He did not intend to bring anyone along; among the group, only Phoenix Nine Heavens's Body Integration Stage cultivation could be considered somewhat high.

Facing a Tribulation Crossing Stage Cultivator, Soul Transformation Stage Cultivators are simply not enough.

Everyone hurriedly rushed out of the great hall, but only saw that the Two-Headed Phoenix had already turned into a black dot on the horizon.

They gazed at the direction where Su Mo had gone, a trace of worry flashing in their eyes.

Crimson Radiance sighed:

"Prepare the carriage! I shall lead the army personally!"

...

At this moment, Su Mo, standing on the back of the Phoenix, was rushing toward the Immortal Burial Battlefield at full speed.

The Mahayana Stage Two-Headed Phoenix was extremely fast. Not long after, Su Mo had already seen the blood-red color permeating the horizon.

On the mountains and plains below, scattered blood-red spots began to appear; these were the traces left behind by the rampaging Blood Beasts.

Blood had already seeped into the earth and would spread before long.

"It seems the situation is even worse than I imagined..."

Su Mo muttered to himself.

Suddenly, he sensed a powerful spiritual energy fluctuation several hundred miles ahead; it was the aftermath of a battle.

With a thought from Su Mo, the Two-Headed Phoenix immediately turned and charged toward that area.

A moment later, a tragic scene came into view.

Below, a small city had already turned into ruins, and countless Cultivators were fighting a bloody battle against swarms of Blood Beasts.

In the center of the battlefield, a woman in white held a long sword, fighting a Void Refining Stage Blood Beast alone. Her water-blue sword light was like a waterfall, but she was already showing signs of exhaustion.

When he saw the woman's face clearly, Su Mo's pupils shrank violently—

"Luo Qingxue?!"

At this moment, Luo Qingxue was a bit thinner than when Su Mo had left, but her cultivation had already broken through to the Late Spirit Transformation Stage. Her sword technique was masterful and extremely sharp, and her body radiated a powerful Sword Intent.

However, facing a Blood Beast with Void Refining Stage strength, she was clearly struggling, and her sleeves were already stained with spots of blood.

"Azure Wave Sword Immortal! Let's retreat! There are too many Blood Beasts!"

A middle-aged Cultivator covered in blood screamed; one of his arms was only half left, yet he was still struggling desperately to fend off the Blood Beasts pouncing on him.

Luo Qingxue gritted her teeth and swung her sword, unleashing three sword lights to slay the three Blood Beasts that were pouncing from around her:

"Hold on for another incense stick of time! The civilians in the city have not fully evacuated yet!"

As she spoke, the Void Refining Stage Blood Beast seized this opening, its scarlet sharp claws stabbing straight at Luo Qingxue's chest.

This strike was as fast as lightning; Luo Qingxue had no time to defend.

Just at this critical moment—

"Screech!!"

A soul-shaking Phoenix cry resounded through the sky, and a terrifying Aura enveloped the entire battlefield like a physical substance.

The movements of all the Blood Beasts instantly halted, including those of the Void Refining Stage Blood Beast.

Immediately after, a light as blinding as the sun bloomed above everyone's heads, then dispersed into a rain of light that fell, covering the entire city with its vast range.

This rain of light looked gentle, but when it landed on the Blood Beasts, it was like a branding iron; all the bodies of the Blood Beasts rapidly dissolved in the rain of light.

"This... this is..."

Luo Qingxue stared blankly at this miraculous scene before her, unable to speak for a long time.

The massive figure of the Two-Headed Phoenix landed on the Void Refining Stage Blood Beast. It gripped its claws in the air, and the Blood Beast instantly exploded, turning into a puddle of blood on the ground.

Luo Qingxue looked up subconsciously.

She saw that on top of the Two-Headed Phoenix, a figure she could not be more familiar with appeared in her sight.
