270: Chapter 270 The Holy Blood Cult Grows Stronger, Cangya Dies After Breaking Through the Mirror!

Liang Kingdom, You Prefecture, Taizhen Prefecture.

The night was deep, and flames illuminated half the sky...

Falling Leaf Valley, the Chen family residence.

The light screen of the clan protection Formation flickered violently, and cracks spread everywhere.

Chen Yuan, the Chen family head, gripped the long sword in his hand. His face was covered in blood, and he gasped for air.

Outside the Formation, over a hundred Cultivators wearing blood-colored robes blocked the valley entrance, and the leader among them was burly.

He tore off his blood robe, and immediately his bones popped, and his muscles bulged wildly!

Dark golden, coarse hair pierced through his skin, covering his entire body, and his head elongated, transforming into a ferocious bear head.

He had shockingly transformed into that half-human, half-bear Yao Beast!

This person was one of the thirty-six Protectors of the Holy Blood Sect, with a Foundation Establishment Middle Stage cultivation level; nowadays, the Holy Blood Sect had long since become a major power.

Its sphere of influence was even larger than some Golden Core Sects!

This wild bear Protector raised his right arm and smashed a fist onto the Formation light screen; with just that one fierce punch.

Boom!

The light screen shattered completely, and fragments of Spiritual Qi scattered and dissipated.

Chen Yuan roared, thrusting his sword straight forward, the tip pointing directly at the wild bear's heart, his heart having already given birth to a will to die!

The blade struck the target, but a metallic clanging sound rang out.

The long sword was actually stuck between the bone and muscle, unable to advance an inch.

The wild bear opened its large mouth, baring its vicious fangs, and raised its bear paw to slam down again with the force of a thousand jun!

Chen Yuan's head exploded on the spot, and his headless corpse collapsed to the ground.

"Kill."

The wild bear spat out this one word, and the blood-robed Cultivators behind him surged into Falling Leaf Valley, beginning a retaliatory massacre.

Screams and pleas for mercy rang out in unison, wails filling the sky!

Half an hour later, the Chen family was annihilated.

Taizhen Prefecture had one less Foundation Establishment immortal clan, and the resources of this clan ultimately belonged to the Holy Blood Sect; furthermore, high-grade spiritual items would be diverted and sent back to the various Yao tribes under Shi Jian's command.

The current situation in the Taizhen Prefecture of the Liang Kingdom was completely chaotic.

The Holy Blood Sect developed extremely rapidly, constantly clashing and fighting with various local forces; numerous Foundation Establishment immortal clans were uprooted and turned into food, and it had even established a great reputation in the Liang Kingdom!

Moreover, the members of the Holy Blood Sect were countless.

After years of development, the Sect gradually divided into two parts: internal and external.

The external part consisted of non-core personnel.

Loose Cultivators, immortal clan Cultivators, and desperate criminals mixed among them; using the name of the Holy Blood Sect, they burned, killed, looted, and committed all sorts of evil deeds.

The internal part was the core members of the Holy Blood Sect.

The number was always kept at a scale of three thousand; if there was a vacancy, elites were selected from the external part to become internal members.

Within the core layer, there were six Great Protectors and thirty-six Protectors.

A total of forty-two Foundation Establishment Cultivators!

Among these forty-two people, most had received deep modification from the Holy Blood.

They could activate their Bloodline at any time to transform into half-human, half-bear Yao Beasts, with tyrannical Physical Bodies and combat power far exceeding Human Race Cultivators of the same level.

The reputation of the Holy Blood Sect resonated throughout the region...

Even the four Sects of the Righteous Path had surrounded and suppressed this Holy Sect many times, yet it always refused to die, taking root deep within the Liang Kingdom.

It even secretly extended its reach to the entire You Prefecture!

It could be said that its power was monstrous.

Eastern Taizhen Prefecture, Lin family residence.

In the Forbidden Ground at the back of the mountain, the stone door of the secret room was tightly closed, and the Lin Family Ancestor sat cross-legged, constantly adjusting his breath to solidify his Foundation.

Naturally, he was not of the Human Race, but a secret pawn planted by Shi Jian years ago.

The Old Ancestor of the Green Ape Clan: Ancestor Cang Ya.

Ancestor Cang Ya revealed his true form; his fur color was even duller than before, and his vitality had dissipated significantly; he was too old...

Moreover, his Lifespan was about to be exhausted, and he did not have much time left.

The Peak of a Level 4 Yao Beast had held him back for too many years; he also wanted to witness the rise of the Green Ape Clan and see the scenery of the future.

Yet he discovered that he was already on the verge of death.

"Without heaven and earth qi, death is certain, and I do not know if Bi Luo can stabilize the situation of the Holy Blood Sect without me..."

"If I fall this time, Bi Luo should request the Old Ancestor to send more great Yao Beasts of our clan to assist, so as to control the situation in this region."

Ancestor Cang Ya muttered to himself, his eyes filled with determination.

Immediately, he activated his Bloodline, and the surrounding wood-attribute Spiritual Qi surged crazily, turning into a vortex that poured into his body.

Within his Dantian, the true essence began to compress violently.

The first barrier, the Spiritual Qi barrier.

Relying on his many years of accumulation, Ancestor Cang Ya forcibly compressed his true essence to the extreme; the spiritual liquid was viscous, gathering around his Yao core.

He had prepared extremely well for this barrier, so it was naturally not difficult.

Next was the second barrier.

Without the neutralization of heaven and earth qi, the violent wood-attribute true essence directly lost control, and Ancestor Cang Ya kept trying to reverse the decline.

Yet he discovered that one wrong step meant every step was wrong!

Before long, Ancestor Cang Ya's Physical Body began to collapse; the surface of his skin rapidly hardened, and rough tree bark grew out.

His flesh and blood transformed into wood, and his Meridians snapped inch by inch, growing fine root whiskers.

Severe pain engulfed him, and his Divine Soul shook violently.

Ancestor Cang Ya sighed slightly and revealed a dismal smile; everything was as he had expected, and in the end, he still wanted to try.

But as expected, trying to force his way into the Golden Core realm was indeed as difficult as ascending to heaven!

Finally, he sighed leisurely, his body began to expand continuously, and his legs dug into the rock, transforming into thick tree roots...

He stretched his arms, which turned into lush branches, and eventually, he transformed into a towering ancient tree.

"Old Ancestor, I have tried my best."

"Bi Luo, do not blame this old man..."

"Qingling, I hope you grow up well, become a towering tree for our clan, shelter our clan from the wind and rain, and see this new world..."

Ancestor Cang Ya let out a roar toward the sky, and immediately after, his body exploded completely.

Endless green spiritual light swept across the entire back mountain.

Thousands of vines grew on the rocks, towering trees rose from the ground, shooting straight into the clouds, and even more Spiritual Plants and trees grew wildly along with them.

In just half an hour, the entire back mountain of the Lin family had become a forest of trees that was full of vitality yet permeated with deathly silence.

Ancestor Cang Ya Dao-transformed, his body died and his Dao dissipated.

Having disguised himself as the Lin Family Ancestor for decades, he ultimately failed to cross that natural chasm, his body transforming into thousands of flowers, grasses, and trees, sleeping here forever.
