You could tell the Blood Spirit really wanted to leave this place too!
After all, it had been all alone here.
Ye Xuan suddenly spread his palm. “Come here, let me have a look!”
He was genuinely curious about this Blood Spirit!
A spirit condensed from the blood of billions of powerhouses had to be extraordinary!
The Blood Spirit shook its head. “No, too dangerous!”
Ye Xuan smiled. “It’s fine!”
The Blood Spirit hesitated for a moment, then turned into a streak of blood light and shot straight between Ye Xuan’s brows!
Boom!
In an instant, Ye Xuan’s pupils turned blood-red. Not only that, a terrifying crimson glow suddenly exploded from his body and soared into the sky. In the blink of an eye, the entire heavens became a sea of blood!
Qin Guan’s expression changed drastically!
Ye Xuan’s eyes looked like oceans of blood. His whole body radiated horrifying malice and killing intent!
At that moment, the Mad Demon Bloodline inside him suddenly began to boil!
Suppress!
Gradually, Ye Xuan’s eyes slowly returned to normal. A few moments later, his expression was calm again!
Qin Guan hurriedly asked, “Are you alright?”
Ye Xuan shook his head. “I’m fine!”
As he spoke, his face gradually grew solemn!
This Blood Spirit was truly terrifying!
For that brief instant just now, even his Mad Demon Bloodline had nearly failed to suppress it!
The Blood Spirit contained endless killing intent, malice, and resentment. All that resentment came from the countless powerhouses who died back then. If an ordinary person touched the Blood Spirit, they would be devoured clean by the resentment in a single moment!
Fortunately he had the Mad Demon Bloodline and his own strength was sufficient. Otherwise even he might not have been able to suppress that resentment!
As if something occurred to him, a smile appeared on Ye Xuan’s face. This Blood Spirit would be a huge help to him!
It could strengthen his bloodline power!
This thing contained an infinite supply of malice, killing intent, and resentment. He would not even need to kill anyone to obtain them. With these, his bloodline power could grow without limit!
At that moment, Qin Guan suddenly pointed inside the hall. “Look!”
Ye Xuan gathered his thoughts and looked over. In a remote corner of the hall knelt a woman. She appeared young, but all signs of life were gone. Only an immortal physical body remained!
Ye Xuan and Qin Guan exchanged a glance, then walked deeper into the hall. In front of the woman, not far away, hung a portrait. When Ye Xuan saw it, he froze!
The owner of the Dao Brush!
Ye Xuan was shocked. “The owner of the Dao Brush already existed a hundred billion years ago?”
Qin Guan was equally stunned!
At this point, the little elf said, “He has always existed!”
Ye Xuan looked at the little elf. She spoke calmly. “Before the previous civilisation was destroyed, his lineage already existed. It was called the Dao Sect. Back then many people begged him to save all living beings, but he did not act!”
Ye Xuan was puzzled. “Why didn’t he intervene?”
The little elf shook her head. “I don’t know!”
Ye Xuan fell silent.
The Dao Sect!
This owner of the Dao Brush had been around for who knows how many cycles of civilisation!
He lasted even longer than the Boundless Lord!
As if something struck him, Ye Xuan suddenly asked, “Is there a Dao Sect in this place?”
The little elf nodded quickly. “Yes!”
Ye Xuan smiled. “Take us there!”
The little elf nodded. “Okay!”
Just then, Qin Guan suddenly said, “Wait!”
Ye Xuan looked at her. Qin Guan walked up to the woman. In front of her lay a storage ring!
The ring still emitted faint energy fluctuations!
Qin Guan said softly, “She was protecting this storage ring!”
As she spoke, she opened her palm. The storage ring slowly flew into her hand. But at that instant, something unexpected happened. A black beam shot out from the ring at extreme speed and vanished between Qin Guan’s brows in the blink of an eye!
Ye Xuan’s expression changed dramatically. He was about to rush forward when Qin Guan raised her right hand. “It’s fine. She wanted to seize my body!”
Ye Xuan said gravely, “You…”
At that moment, a terrifying soul aura suddenly erupted from Qin Guan’s body. In an instant, a soul was forcibly ejected. Ye Xuan pointed with two fingers, and the Qingxuan Sword instantly pinned that soul to a distant pillar!
The soul belonged to the kneeling woman in front of them!
The woman stared at Qin Guan in horror. “You… why couldn’t I seize your body!”
Qin Guan smiled. “My soul and bloodline are rather special. You cannot seize me!”
The woman glared at Qin Guan, her face utterly grim.
Just then, with a thought from Ye Xuan, the Qingxuan Sword began frantically devouring the woman’s soul!
Yet the woman showed no fear. She simply closed her eyes slowly, as if accepting her fate!
Qin Guan glanced at the woman, then said, “Let’s go!”
Ye Xuan nodded. The two walked out.
The moment they stepped out of the hall, the Qingxuan Sword suddenly flew forth!
Buzzzz!
A sword cry burst from the Qingxuan Sword. Immediately after, an overwhelmingly powerful sword momentum soared into the sky and pierced deep into the clouds!
Boom!
The entire world was enveloped by this sword momentum!
Ye Xuan said softly, “She broke through!”
Qin Guan smiled. “Yes!”
At that moment, the Qingxuan Sword flew in front of Ye Xuan. Little Soul said excitedly, “Little Master, I broke through! I finally broke through again!”
Ye Xuan suddenly reached out and grasped the Qingxuan Sword!
Boom!
He instantly felt an endless surge of sword momentum and sword intent. He casually swung the sword.
Slash!
In that instant, the whole world seemed to turn illusory.
Seeing this, Ye Xuan’s eyes narrowed. The Qingxuan Sword had improved far more than just a little!
Compared to before, its power had increased several times at least!
If he fought that giant again now, he could crush it effortlessly!
At that thought, Ye Xuan shook his head with a laugh. He himself had not improved, but the sword had. He needed to work harder!
Collecting his thoughts, Ye Xuan looked at the little elf. “Let’s go to the Dao Sect!”
The little elf nodded. “Okay!”
With that, she floated off into the distance!
Ye Xuan and Qin Guan followed. Soon the little elf led them to a Daoist temple. The temple did not look large. At a glance it appeared utterly desolate!
Above the mountain gate, the two characters “Dao Sect” could still be seen, though the erosion of time had made them extremely faint.
Ye Xuan said, “I’ve just thought of something. Every time a cycle ends, the civilisation is wiped out. Then who guides the creation of the new civilisation?”
The little elf answered, “The owner of the Dao Brush!”
Ye Xuan fell silent.
He had already guessed as much!
The little elf continued, “Whenever a civilisation is destroyed, after a very long time new life appears in this universe. At that point, the owner of the Dao Brush comes out and establishes a new civilisation!”
Ye Xuan and Qin Guan exchanged a look. Qin Guan sounded puzzled. “Why doesn’t he just stop the Universe Spirit directly? Could it be…”
Her eyes narrowed slightly. “Could it be that he simply cannot stop the Universe Spirit!”
Ye Xuan nodded. “That’s possible!”
Qin Guan suddenly turned to Ye Xuan. “Do you think he might be waiting for you to confront the Universe Spirit?”
Ye Xuan’s face instantly darkened. “Damn it!”
