About 500 miles away from the Stop Lin Pass, on a plain, for the Immortal Blood Clan’s military camp, at a glance, all are densely packed tents, brightly lit, as if it were a star reflecting on the dark earth.
In the sky above the camp, there was a thick blood cloud that stretched for thousands of miles.
In the blood clouds, there was a large formation in operation, which could prevent sneak attacks from the court’s powerhouses.
One of the commander’s tents of the Qingtian Tribe was made from a pile of white human bones. Outside the tent, a large flag stood, on which hung a human skin, to be exact, it should be the skin peeled off from a human Saint.
On the human skin, the holy blood hadn’t dried, emitting strands of scarlet blood aura.
On the surface of the human skin, there were two pale characters branded with the rules of the Saint Dao – Stu.
Stu, belonging to a great surname in the Qingtian Tribe, represented an ancient and glorious family, second only to the Qingtian Tribe’s royal family.
Being the pride of the Stu family, the number one amongst the young saints of the Qingtian Tribe, Stu Fengcheng was sitting at the very top of the tent, his hands cupping the transmission light talisman that he had just received, and his eyes became incomparably grave.
“What a terrifying piece of news, this is going to turn the sky upside down.”
The summoning light talisman had been sent from the Ningfeng Prefecture’s Prefecture City, and the content on it caused Stuart Phoenix City to feel incomparably shocked.
Just a short while ago, the Mingtang Sacred Ancestor had intruded into the Mansion City and sunk the Zhongyin King’s Mansion into the ground.
Subsequently, the Qingtian Blood Emperor stepped in to stop him and fought with the Bright Hall Sacred Ancestor, shattering a large portion of the Mansion City, and millions of Qingtian Tribe clansmen died in the aftermath of the battle.
One must know that there were only thirty-six prefectures in the Northern Domain.
The city of each prefecture was an ancient city that had existed for more than ten thousand years, and was the place with the strongest defences, with defensive formations linking one to the other in the city, making it very difficult for any calamity to destroy it.
However, the Ning Feng Mansion’s Mansion City had a large portion of it destroyed, so one could imagine how terrifying this great battle was.
In the end result, the Qingtian Blood Emperor lost miserably, almost dying at the hands of the Mingtang Sacred Ancestor.
According to the transmitting light talisman, it was the Hall Master of the Immortal God’s Palace who had deduced that the Blue Sky Blood Emperor and the Middle Winning King were in danger, and fought with the Holy Ancestor of the Hall of Brightness across a piece of emptiness to save the Blue Sky Blood Emperor and the Middle Winning King, and brought them back to the Immortal God’s Palace to recuperate from their injuries.
The Ming Tang Sacred Ancestor fought with the Immortal God Hall’s Hall Master and seemed to have suffered some injuries as well, leaving the Ningfeng Mansion, and his whereabouts were unknown today.
Stuart Fengcheng’s mind was profound, and he quickly calmed the shaking emotions in his heart, muttering to himself, ”A battle at the level of a Great Emperor, I wonder how amazing it is? If I could stand close enough to watch it, it would definitely be extremely helpful to my cultivation.”
In this battle, the Qingtian Clan suffered heavy losses, not only were the Qingtian Blood Emperor and the Middle Winning King severely injured and dying, but also nearly fifty Blood Saints fell, and the number of dead Half-Saints and Fish Dragon Realm Immortal Blood Clans were countless.
Just the Mingtang Sacred Ancestor alone had caused the Qingtian Tribe to suffer a great deal of damage, and I’m afraid that amongst the ten major tribes, it could only be ranked at the bottom of the list now.
The Qingtian Tribe had certainly been caught off guard, but for the Mingtang Sacred Ancestor to be able to vanish from the hands of the Immortal God Temple’s Hall Master and come and go as she pleases in the Immortal Blood Tribe’s territory, her strength should be far greater than the Immortal Blood Tribe had once predicted.
“Why on earth? The Ming Tang Sacred Ancestor has been cultivating for eight hundred years, she should be a very sensible powerhouse, why would she risk her fall and enter the Ning Feng Mansion to deal with Master Teacher?”Stuart Phoenix City was puzzled.
The Immortal Blood Clan not only had the ten great Blood Emperors, but also the mysterious and unpredictable Immortal God’s Temple, it was like a dragon’s lair, even if one’s cultivation level was high enough, intruding into the Immortal Blood Clan’s territory single-handedly would only result in nine deaths and one life.
It was impossible for the Bright Hall Sacred Ancestor to do this for no reason, but how could Stuart Phoenix City not be able to figure out the reason for this?
“The next period of time will be very difficult for the Qingtian Clan, and some arrangements must be made in advance to do so.”
Stu Feng Cheng sat beside the table, inscribing more than thirty transmission light talismans in a row, with a wave of his sleeve, those transmission light talismans transformed into a piece of streaming light, flew out of the camp and disappeared into the night.
“Ta da.”
Footsteps sounded, and a sergeant in blood armour, walked in from outside, kneeling down on one knee, saying, “Lord Vice Commander, the Four Sword Blood Sage and the Wind Destruction Blood Sage are outside the camp seeking an audience.”
Stuart Phoenix City’s eyes narrowed slightly and said, “Only the two of them?”
“That’s right.”
According to the news that Stu Phoenix City had received, both the Four Sword Blood Sage and the Wind Destruction Blood Sage had already entered the Immortal Machine Mountain to seize the formula for the Sacred Transformation Pill.
Now that the two of them had returned to camp, why was there no news from Zhu Qingyi?
Stuart Fengcheng developed an ominous premonition and said, “Invite them in.”
The Four Sword Blood Saints and the Wind Destruction Blood Saints were Heavenly Blood Generals and had a very high status in the Immortal Blood Race, yet, they still bowed respectfully when they saw Stu Feng Cheng and said in unison, “Greetings to the Vice Commander.”
Stu Feng Cheng gently nodded his head and signalled them to be excused, saying, “There is no need for the two Blood Generals to be so polite, this Saint is curious right now, what kind of bad news have you brought back?”
The Wind Destroyer Blood Saint said, “The Light Clothed Blood General was captured by Zhang Ruochen after he was poisoned by the Golden Bat in the Immortal Machine Mountain.”
Even though Stuart Feng Cheng was already mentally prepared, he still felt a bit surprised and said, “Zhang Ruochen? Which Zhang Ruochen?”
“It’s that Time and Space Transmitter of the Human Race.”The Wind Destroying Blood Saint said with gloomy eyes.
Afterwards, the Wind Destruction Blood Saint and the Four Sword Blood Saint told all about their encounters in the Immortal Machine Mountain.
Stuart Phoenix City continuously frowned, gradually accepting the fact that Zhang Ruochen had come to the Northern Domain, captured Zhu Qingyi, and had also killed in the Immortal Machine Mountain, taking away the Thousand Leaf Sacred Core Grass, the main ingredient for refining the Sacred Transformation Pill.
Was this really something that a person with three wasted veins could do?
“Are you guys sure that Zhang Ruochen didn’t just use spiritual power, but also martial power?”Stuart Phoenix City asked.
Since the Middle Winning King said that he had abolished Zhang Ruochen’s three veins, then Zhang Ruochen’s three veins had definitely been abolished, and Stuart Phoenix City had no doubt about that.
The Four Sword Blood Saint said, “I’ve fought with Zhang Ruochen, this son did indeed use his martial power, he doesn’t look like someone who has had his three veins abolished.”
The Wind Destroying Blood Saint guessed, “Perhaps …… Gu Songzi renewed his three veins for him. During the competition for the Thousand Leaf Sacred Core Grass, the two of them got very close and also left together.”
Stuart Phoenix City fell into thought for a long time before revealing a smile again, saying, “Interesting, really interesting, worthy of being a Time and Space Successor, this son really can’t die in a hundred battles. Apart from the five people on the Heroic Fugue, amongst the Human Race, I have finally found a sixth opponent that I take somewhat seriously.”
“In fact, Zhang Ruochen’s strength is only barely able to fight against a Saint at the early stage of the Heavenly Realm, and with my cultivation level, it is enough to crush him. It’s only that his spatial means are just too subtle, if he wants to retreat, even True Saints and Supreme Saints probably won’t be able to keep him.”The Wind Destroying Blood Saint said.
Stuart Phoenix City’s fingers gently tapped on the table, stared at the candlelight, and said, “Zhang Ruochen captured Light Yi but didn’t kill him, it seems like he has a bigger plan.”
The Four Sword Blood Sage said, “Zhang Ruochen’s growth rate is too terrifying, we must get rid of him this time, we cannot let him escape Immortal Machine Mountain.”
“Naturally, we can’t let him escape the Immortal Machine Mountain, apart from him, both the Ancient Pine Son and the Cang Lan Martial Saint must be taken down as well.”Stuart Phoenix City said.
The Wind Destroying Blood Saint revealed a joyful expression and said, “The Vice Commander is prepared to take action himself?”
“At a situation like this, it’s impossible not to personally strike, instead of letting Zhang Ruochen come to me, I’ll go to him first.”
In Stuart Phoenix City’s mind, there were already some guesses that the real reason why Zhang Ruochen had captured Zhu Qingyi but didn’t kill him should be for the item on his body.
“However, with Light Yi still in his hands, he has the upper hand, and he has to equalise this disadvantage before fighting him.”
Stu Feng Cheng did not like to be restrained, and since he chose to take the initiative, he naturally had to be fully prepared.
Stuart Feng Cheng walked to the bookshelf on the left side of the tent and took out a thick stack of information, on the cover of which, the words “Zhang Ruochen” were written.
Flipping open the stack of information, Stuart Feng Cheng quickly read through it and said, “In just a few short years, Zhang Ruochen has grown from a sickly prince of a tiny county in the Heavenly Demon Ridge to a figure that has made the entire Undying Blood Race turn pale with fear, it is not too much of a stretch to call him a legend of the Human Race.”
“The Yunwu County Kingdom, the Martial City Academy, the Eastern Region Holy Academy, the Two Yi Sect, the Blood God Sect, and the Stygian Sword Mound, all have so many cultivators who have befriended Zhang Ruochen, who should I choose?”It was written on the information that Zhang Ruochen’s soft underbelly was his mother, the Lady Lin Concubine of the Yunwu County Kingdom.
However, the news that Stuart Phoenix City had received in recent times, those cultivators who had travelled to the Central Imperial City to prepare to capture Concubine Lin had all turned out to be dead.
Obviously, there was a powerful and huge force that was secretly protecting Consort Lin.
Therefore, wanting to move Concubine Lin wasn’t an easy task and could only start from somewhere else.
“Wow…”
At this moment, a summoning light talisman flew in from outside the tent and fell into Stuart Feng Cheng’s hands.
After reading the content on top of the transmission light talisman, Stu Feng Cheng immediately smiled, “The Immortal Blood Race cultivators hiding near the Underworld King’s Sword Mound have sent back news that they have discovered Huang Yichen’s traces. Huang Yichen and a group of cultivators from the Underworld King’s Sword Mound are heading towards the Northern Domain.”
“Zhang Ruochen’s fiancée, haha, this Saint will personally lead a group over there and will definitely capture her. As long as we have Yellow Smoke Dust in our hands, Zhang Ruochen will be the fish and meat on our plate and can only be slaughtered by us, let’s see how he can still escape?”
The Wind Destroying Blood Saint took the initiative to invite the battle, a ruthless look in his eyes.
Stuart Phoenix City felt that the Wind Destroying Blood Saint was not cautious enough in his actions and shook his head, saying, “This matter, must be done by the Four Sword Blood Saint.”
“Why?”The Wind Destruction Blood Saint was puzzled.
Stuart Phoenix City said, “To bring death to Zhang Ruochen, we have to have two preparations. You go to the Eastern Domain and capture these few people on the profile.”
Stuart Phoenix City handed over a piece of information in his hand to the Wind Destroying Blood Saint.
Only after the Wind Destroying Blood Saint and the Four Sword Blood Saint left did Stu Phoenix City say to himself, “Against someone who cannot be killed or defeated in any way, and who grows stronger the more frustrated he is, I’m afraid that two-handed preparations are not enough. There must also be a third hand, a fourth hand of preparation to ensure that he will have a death and never be able to recover.”
Stuart Fengcheng wrote down two letters and sent them to the Qi Heavenly Clan and the Yellow Heavenly Clan respectively. Both of these tribes had a deep hatred with Zhang Ruochen, and I believed that they would not let go of the opportunity to deal with him.
