231: Chapter 230 Encountering an Old Friend in a Sea of ​​Blood? No, an Enemy!

Lin Feng took Huang Fugui through a thick, almost impenetrable blood-colored mist, and the scene ahead suddenly cleared up, yet it was shocking.

This was a massive island floating on the Blood Sea.

However, this island was not composed of soil or rock, but piled up from countless ghastly white bones!

These bones belonged to humans, Yao Beasts, and even massive deep-sea behemoths; they were intertwined and tangled together, forming a pale island of death.

In the center of the island stood an altar over a hundred feet high.

Around the altar, hundreds of Cultivators in black and red robes were forming a massive circle.

Each of them wore a fanatical and twisted expression, and in their hands, they each held a heart that was still slightly beating.

It was clear these hearts had just been extracted from living creatures; fresh blood dripped down through their fingers, gathering into channels on the ground, and finally flowing toward the altar in the center.

As the blood irrigated it, the hideous devilish patterns on the altar began to emit a dark red light, as if they had come alive.

The space above the altar began to twist, cracking open a pitch-black fissure, and a terrifying pressure—ancient, evil, and filled with violent intent—was slowly awakening from within the fissure.

"Is this... the blood sacrifice formation of the ancient Demonic Path?"

Lin Feng stood on the blood waves not far away, his figure hidden in the Void Realm, his brow slightly furrowed.

He was very familiar with the attire of this group; it was extremely similar to the Heavenly Demon Sect he had encountered in the Lower Realm, but the Aura on each person was purer and bloodier.

The weakest Disciple here had the cultivation of an Early Stage Heavenly Immortal, and the old man leading them, standing at the very top of the altar, exuded the formidable fluctuations of an Early Stage Golden Immortal!

The old man was skinny as a rail, with deep-set eye sockets, and his withered hands were raised high, roaring at the sky.

"Faster! Faster! Offer up all the sacrifices! The fluctuations in the depths of the Blood Sea are getting stronger. As long as we awaken the sleeping 'Blood Demon General' and open the passage to the Ancient Asura Palace, we can obtain the Legacy left behind by the Old Ancestor!"

The old man's voice was hoarse, his eyes filled with greed and madness.

"When that time comes, we will return to the center of the Immortal Realm and slaughter all those so-called hypocrites of the Righteous Path! We won't have to hide like rats in this godforsaken place anymore!"

He was a Grand Elder of the Heavenly Demon Sect who had luckily escaped during the great purge in the Immortal Realm, known as the "Blood Eagle Old Demon."

Now, he was hiding in this Blood Sea with the remnants of his lineage, lingering on in a desperate attempt to use this evil blood sacrifice technique to turn the tables.

"Who?! There is the Aura of a living person in that direction!"

The moment Lin Feng leaked a trace of his Aura, the Blood Eagle Old Demon suddenly turned his head, his blood-red eyes staring fixedly at the Void Realm where Lin Feng was located, like a venomous snake.

His Divine Sense was extremely sharp; even within this chaotic blood-evil Qi, he had captured the anomaly.

"Someone has intruded! Kill him! You must not let him ruin the sacrificial ceremony! Otherwise, we will all die!"

Following the Blood Eagle Old Demon's order, the hundreds of demonic Cultivators chanting below reacted instantly.

"Kill!!!"

The shouts of killing shook the heavens and earth.

Hundreds of demonic Cultivators successively summoned their Lifebound Treasures.

In an instant, the sky was filled with black skulls, blood-colored Flying Swords, banners refined from human skin... countless insidious and ruthless Magic Treasures and Spells came crashing down toward Lin Feng's location, covering the sky.

The scene was like a destructive rainstorm.

"Tsk, what hospitality. Sending gifts without even saying hello?"

Lin Feng revealed his figure, standing in place with his arms crossed, not even raising an eyelid.

Not until the attacks, which were enough to shatter a mountain, were about to land on him.

"Fugui, protect me. Don't just focus on eating snacks, get to work."

"You got it, Master! I've been waiting for this main course!"

A gray-gold afterimage shot out from Lin Feng's shoulder instantly, blocking in front of him.

Facing the terrifying onslaught raining down from the sky, the small Fugui appeared so insignificant.

But the next second, it suddenly opened its mouth.

"Divine Ability—Swallow Heaven and Devour Earth!"

Its originally small mouth instantly became as deep as a black hole, and the surrounding space distorted strangely with its inhalation.

"Slurp—!"

A huge sucking sound was made, just like eating noodles.

A jaw-dropping scene occurred.

Those aggressive Magic Treasures and streams of Spells, upon approaching within three feet of the Fugui's mouth, instantly lost control and rapidly shrank.

The sky full of skulls, Flying Swords, and poisonous fire were actually lining up, spinning, and being swallowed in one breath!

Even the Lifebound Treasures summoned by those few demonic Cultivators had their mental connections severed and were forcibly sucked into that bottomless pit of a mouth.

The battlefield fell silent instantly.

Only the sound of the Fugui swallowing with a "gulp" remained.

"Burp~"

It patted its distended little belly, stuck out its tongue to lick its lips, and evaluated with a look of disdain: "A bit salty, too much of a metallic taste, bad review. But the energy is decent."

"Wh... what?!"

The demonic Cultivators below were all dumbfounded, their eyes nearly popping out of their sockets.

What kind of monster was this?

That was a combined strike from hundreds of Heavenly Immortal experts!

Even a Middle Stage Golden Immortal expert wouldn't dare to take it head-on, yet this Yao Beast that looked like a mouse had swallowed it in one bite?

Even the Blood Eagle Old Demon on the altar had his pupils shrink violently, and a chill shot straight from the soles of his feet to his crown.

"This is... a swallowing-type Divine Beast? Oh no! This guy is tough, quick..."

Before he could even say the word "retreat," Lin Feng had already moved.

"Since you all like blood so much, you can all stay here; it'll just happen to provide some nourishment for this Blood Sea."

Lin Feng took a step forward, golden light flickering under his feet.

Divine Ability—Earth-Shrinking Step!

The space seemed to fold under his feet.

The next second, he appeared out of thin air in front of the Early Stage Golden Immortal Blood Eagle Old Demon, the two of them face-to-face, less than three inches apart.

"You..."

The Blood Eagle Old Demon was terrified, just about to mobilize all his Devilish Qi to resist, but discovered with horror that the space around him seemed to have solidified, and a domineering, peerless golden Aura was suppressing him tightly.

"Soul Search!"

Lin Feng didn't waste any words; his right hand, carrying brilliant golden light, pressed directly onto the Blood Eagle Old Demon's crown.

Since he was a local tyrant, he surely knew many secrets about this place.

What Lin Feng lacked most right now was a guide, and the memories of a dead person were often the most honest map.

"Ah!!!!"

A shrill scream rang through the sky, a hundred times more miserable than the wailing of the wronged souls from earlier.

Countless memory fragments flooded into Lin Feng's mind like a tide: the map of the Blood Sea, the distribution of the Restrictions, the legends of the Blood Prison Demon Lord, the plans of this group...

A moment later, Lin Feng let go.

That once arrogant Golden Immortal demonic Cultivator now had his eyes rolled back, foam spilling from his mouth, his Primordial Spirit completely collapsed, sliding off the altar like a pile of mud.

"So that's how it is..."

A glimmer of light flashed in Lin Feng's eyes as he digested the information he had obtained.

"Deep in the Blood Sea, there is an [Ancient Asura Palace]? It is said to be a war fortress left behind by the ancient Asura tribe? It contains an Opportunity that can reshape the Physical Body, or even allow one to break through the Bottleneck of a Grand Unity Golden Immortal?"

The reason this group of demonic Cultivators was performing a blood sacrifice here was to use the blood to awaken the demonic creature guarding the ancient palace, so they could take advantage of the creature's feeding time to fish in troubled waters and enter to search for treasures.

"A good place, it belongs to me now."

Lin Feng turned around, looking down at the surrounding remnants of the demonic Cultivators who were trembling and had already been scared out of their wits.

"As for you all... aiding and abetting, you deserve to die."

"Myriad Dao Furnace Sutra, full power activation!"

Boom!

A massive golden vortex appeared behind Lin Feng, like a golden sun falling into the Blood Sea.

A terrifying devouring suction force erupted instantly, enveloping everything on the island.

"No!! Spare me!!"

"Devil! You are an even more terrifying devil than us!!"

"Ahhhh—"

The screams rose and fell, but they quickly came to an abrupt end.

These hundreds of demonic Cultivators, along with that bone altar filled with the Aura of sin, were all swept into the golden vortex, crushed, pulverized, and refined!

[Ding! Killed Early Stage Golden Immortal demonic Cultivator x1, Heavenly Immortal realm demonic Cultivator x342!]

[Myriad Dao Furnace Sutra conversion successful!]

[Triggered critical hit multiplier: 200,000 times!]

[Congratulations to the Host, obtained critical hit points: 2,000,000,000,000!]

Lin Feng looked at the frantically rising balance on the System panel and nodded with satisfaction.

Killing and arson bring wealth; the ancients did not deceive me.

"Thanks for leading the way; remember to be a good person in your next life."

He flicked a wisp of flame, burning the remaining filth clean.

"Fugui, let's go! According to this old ghost's memories, head to that Ancient Asura Palace! We're going to plunder the rich!"

"You got it, Master! I'm going to empty that ancient palace!"
