Depleted True Blood
Chapter 910 Depleted True Blood
The grotto-heaven transforms into a small world, giving rise to its own unique charm.
Under the fusion and flow of the ultimate Yin and Yang forces, all the great Daos are undergoing strange changes.
It appears even more mysterious and profound!
This is a fundamental transformation, a leap in status. The beings born within it will naturally receive its rewards, just as the Floating Realm ascended to the Exquisite Realm back then.
Moreover, Beiquan Cave Heaven is special because it gathers resources from countless realms to achieve its own development. Although it is only a newly formed small world, its foundation is more profound than imagined.
As the sun and moon revolve, the spiritual energy within the Northern Spring World undergoes wondrous changes.
The spiritual energy became even purer, as if it had been drawn from the finest spirit stones, each strand containing immense power.
Although the proportion of these spiritual energies is still very small, it is steadily increasing.
Li Chengyi felt these things most clearly. Although his cultivation cave was on a side peak, the spiritual veins within it were deliberately drawn by Gu Yuanqing. Cultivating in this cave was no worse than cultivating on the main peak.
At this moment, he was already at the peak of the Yin-Yang Void Breaking Realm, but he was still some distance away from truly breaking through to the Yin-Yang Zhou Tian.
The twenty-seven Daoist imprints are in their initial stages, with a few still not fully formed.
But today, I felt that the spiritual energy contained the essence of the Dao, and with each breath, even the speed at which the Dao imprints condensed increased slightly.
His eyes lit up, and he immediately guessed that something had changed in the mountains again.
This is not surprising, as the mountain has been full of miracles from its humble beginnings to its present state.
Gu Yuanqing and Li Miaoxuan remained standing on the mountaintop, closing their eyes and quietly experiencing everything.
The Beiquan Cave is undergoing wondrous changes every moment, and these changes, once missed, are difficult to witness again.
In comparison, nothing else compares unless it is a matter of life and death.
On Demon God Mountain.
The three great demon god families, Ji, Jiang, and Ying, have already withdrawn.
At the summit, only three people remained: Lieshan Yu, Lieshan Yi, and Lieshan Han.
The battle of the Dragon Demon Realm has come to an end, and the Xuanjing has transformed into a stream of light and fallen into the hands of Lieshan Yu.
Lie Shanhan finally couldn't help but ask, "Brother, what exactly do these three families want to do? Just now... that old man from the Ji family seemed to want to directly attack the seal on the underground cave."
Lie Shanyu smiled faintly: "What do you want to do? It's simply that you don't want to drag this out any longer."
"What do you mean by not wanting to drag this out?" Lie Shanhan asked.
Lie Shanyu glanced at Lie Shanyi and said, "Sixth brother, you tell us what to say."
Lie Shanyi said, "Because of true blood!"
"True blood?" Lieshan asked coldly.
“The true blood of the Demon God is becoming increasingly diluted. If this continues, I’m afraid even achieving the Undying Chaos Realm will become difficult,” Lie Shanyi said.
Lie Shanhan's expression changed slightly.
Lie Shanyu said with his hands behind his back, "Yes, this world is different from the Dharma Source World. The power of the rule artifacts is weak and it is difficult to use them for cultivation. The only way is to follow the path of bloodline, to undergo extreme transformation, to surpass the limit, and thus obtain a higher level of cultivation."
Under the chaotic heavens, we can rely on our own foundation, coupled with the bloodline of demons.
However, one's own power will eventually come to an end, and the bloodline of demons also has hidden dangers. When one reaches the Chaotic Heaven, one can only rely on the true blood of one's ancestors to stimulate the transformation of one's own bloodline.
However, the blood of our ancestors is not inexhaustible. In the past, our ancestors were able to achieve demigod status. When their time came, they could condense their true blood and return it to the Blood Pool. But even so, it was difficult to make up for the loss of true blood, to the point that the true blood has become increasingly thin.
At this point, Lieshan Yu turned around, smiled, and said, "You didn't think before that I was the one who kept the many God Kings of Demon God Mountain from breaking through to the Undying Heaven Realm, did you?"
Lie Shanhan was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but turn to look at Lie Shanyi.
Lie Shanyi calmly said, "I only learned about these things in recent years."
Lie Shanhan couldn't help but ask again, "Why did you do this, Your Majesty?"
Lie Shanyu said calmly, "If we hadn't done this, the Demon Realm would probably have already descended into chaos long ago."
Lie Shanhan's pupils narrowed slightly. He was also of royal lineage and immediately thought of the consequences if this news were leaked.
Demon God Mountain, which suppresses the Demon Realm, has been the most powerful existence from ancient times to the present.
However, its current strength is far less than it was back then.
Ten thousand years ago, no one would have dared to challenge the authority of Demon God Mountain. But in the last few hundred years, the Demon Emperor attacked the God King's Mansion, and Gu Yuanqing dared to seize the origin of the realm from the God Emperor and even dared to sever his clone.
This was completely unimaginable back then.
The reason for this is that the strength of Demon God Mountain is weakening.
Of course, even so, Demon God Mountain is still recognized as the most powerful existence in the Demon Realm, because of its profound foundation, it can destroy any force as long as it is willing to pay the price.
However, if the matter of the true blood were to spread, it would undoubtedly tell the world that Demon God Mountain was all bark and no bite!
The impact of this is self-evident.
“My Lieshan clan dares not let outsiders know this news, and the other three clans are the same. Therefore, the powerful members of the three major clans have retreated behind the scenes, and I, Lieshan Yu, suppress the world and do not allow anyone to challenge my authority.”
Lie Shanyu gave a self-deprecating smile, because there was another reason he hadn't mentioned: this was also an exchange he made with the three major families when he ascended the throne.
One man's infamy was exchanged for the fame of Demon God Mountain.
Lie Shanhan, his face slightly pale, said, "What Your Majesty means is that the four great demon god families of Demon God Mountain are not afraid to break through to the Undying Chaos Realm, but simply do not have enough true demon god blood for them to break through."
Lie Shanyu turned around and said calmly, "It's not that we don't have any, but we dare not use them recklessly. Every drop must be used where it is meant to be used, and we cannot allow any accidents. Otherwise, if the Demon God family loses the Undying Chaos, how can they protect themselves even with the greatest foundation?"
Lie Shanhan fell silent. Although he was also a member of the royal family, he never imagined that the situation at Demon God Mountain would have reached such a point.
After a long while, Lie Shanhan said in a slightly hoarse voice, "Your Majesty, I still don't understand. Even though things have come to this point, why would Ji Chongshan deliberately damage the seal? If the true demonic power is released as a result, given the situation of our major demon god families, I'm afraid it will be difficult to suppress. Even if we forcefully suppress it, our foundation will be depleted, and our strength will be even weaker!"
Lie Shanyu turned to look at Lie Shanhan and sneered, "Are you really an idiot? You can't even figure this out?"
Lie Shan Han was taken aback.
Lie Shanyu then looked at Lie Shanyi.
Lie Shanyi said, "If this continues, the true blood will be exhausted, and the Demon God family will exist in name only, or rather, it will really perish. Rather than waiting to die, we might as well tear this sky apart."
Lie Shanyu turned around, put his hands behind his back, looked at the sky, and slowly said, "We, the four great demon god families, guard the Demon Realm like prison guards. The Demon Realm and the Law Source Realm have been cut off for countless years. If we want them to look down on us again, there is only one possibility: the prisoners in the prison are about to break out of their cages."
Ji Chongshan's actions, besides testing Gu Yuanqing, were also intended to bring this matter into the open and bind my Lieshan clan to the war effort. Although it failed today due to Gu Yuanqing's interception, the emergence of the True Demon power may not be long.
I, the Emperor, will use the true blood of my ancestors to attempt to reach the demigod realm. Ninth Brother, I will leave you a portion of my true blood, but whether you can become an immortal being depends on your own destiny. Whether you can survive this great calamity also depends on yourself. This is the last thing I, as your elder brother, can do for you.
This may be the last gamble for my Lieshan clan; it's all or nothing!
……
On another mountain peak, Jiang Yuanzhen, Ji Chongshan, and Ying Wugou's clones gathered together.
"What will Lieshan Yu choose?"
"He, like us, has no other choice. Even if we don't do these things now, as our true blood is exhausted and our strength in Demon God Mountain declines, the seal will eventually break. But when that happens, we will be like lambs to the slaughter, powerless to resist! Rather than that, we might as well fight while we still have the strength!"
"Now there is still a variable, which is Gu Yuanqing. Could this person be someone sent down by the Divine Court in the Dharma Source Realm?"
"Although the possibility is very small, it is indeed something we must be wary of. We should act more carefully and cautiously, and not leave too many traces. We must make sure that everything is just an accident!"
"Yes, so the appearance of the true demon incarnate in the world is our best opportunity."
"We only have one chance. If we fail, it will be all over."
Ji Chongshan smiled calmly: "Even if we fail, it will only bring some things forward."
"Then let's increase our strength as much as possible before the chaos arrives."
"Old man, do you really still have the strength to break through to demigod status?"
"What? You're too scared to gamble?"
……
Time flows like water, passing by silently.
Three years have passed in the blink of an eye.
Over the past three years, countless changes have taken place in Beiquan Cave.
Within the Qian Yuan Sect, many cultivators broke through their cultivation levels as a result.
What was once a blessed land has now been transformed into a celestial realm.
With each rotation of the sun and moon, the sky grows higher, the earth thickens, and the land expands.
In the past three years, the geographical area has expanded from hundreds of thousands of miles to nearly five million miles.
In terms of size, it is not much smaller than the current Qian Yuan Realm.
Moreover, this world is full of spiritual mountains and waters, completely incomparable to the barren lands of the newly born Qian Yuan Realm.
The unicorn-like creature, Little White, ran wildly through the world, enjoying delicious food everywhere it went. It was truly a joyful experience.
All sorts of rare treasures, spiritual flowers and exotic herbs are everywhere, and the spiritual beasts living in this cave feel their cultivation level rapidly improve after eating them.
The walls of the grotto gradually transformed into the membrane of the world. The source of power no longer seemed to be limited to the few worlds that were previously connected, but began to absorb power from the endless void and then transform it into the original power of this world along with the flow of the Great Dao.
Another change is that the Great Dao River is no longer connected to the Spirit Realm and the Exquisite Realm, but is gradually becoming independent. The source of the river seems to originate from the unfathomable void of the Nine Heavens.
There haven't been many changes in the Qian Yuan Realm yet. Beiquan Cave Heaven has been promoted to a small world, and its power is contained within it to support its own breakthrough, so it has not been used to feed back into the Qian Yuan Realm.
Moreover, the small world is self-contained. Although it seems to still be connected to the Qian Yuan Realm in terms of the earth veins, the connection between them has actually weakened to some extent.
The foundation of Beiquan Mountain is still rooted in the underground cave. As it transforms into a grotto, the speed of transforming demonic energy increases, drawing all the demonic energy in the underground cave towards this place.
The shadow that Qiu Weifeng's former divine consciousness had transformed into stood deep within the cave, and he too sensed the changes in the mountain.
On that day, his clone entered it and instantly lost contact with him.
At first, he still held out hope, since his clone did not enter to kill Gu Yuanqing, but to test whether he could enter the Linglong Realm from this mountain.
He controlled the power of the Venerable One, and with Gu Yuanqing distracted by dealing with the Demon Court and the Asura Sea, he felt that even if he was discovered, he would have a way to escape.
Although the Demon Court and the Asura King retreated and he lost contact with his clone, he could still sense that the clone was still alive and had not been destroyed, so he was still lucky.
Perhaps the clone has already entered the Linglong Realm.
But after so much time had passed and he still hadn't received any response, he felt his hope was fading.
However, he dared not explore further, fearing that more forces would be drawn into it, thus affecting the Venerable One's plans.
"One day, I'll see what secrets this mountain holds!" the shadow murmured to himself before disappearing into the darkness.
……
Within the Qian Yuan Sect, Li Chengyi felt that all the Daoist imprints on his body had finally taken shape.
His cultivation had reached the pinnacle of Yin and Yang, at least five years ahead of the original plan.
Now, he can cross the boundary and attract heavenly tribulation whenever he wants.
But he didn't do that.
For the past few years, the main peak of Beiquan Mountain has been closed to the public, so even he couldn't get up there.
In addition, the changes that Beiquan Cave Heaven originally underwent indicate that the father and mother must be doing something that cannot be disturbed.
If he undergoes this tribulation, it might affect his parents' plans.
……
In the Primordial Realm, on the Ancient Divine Mountain, within the Gui Cang Hall.
The Great Venerable felt a vague unease. He had a feeling that something had happened that was closely related to him, as if something had completely slipped out of his control.
He suspected it might be related to Gu Yuanqing, after all, Gu Yuanqing was the biggest variable in this world.
However, being targeted by divine punishment, Gui Cang Dian dared not reveal even the slightest trace of his aura, nor even open a crack to allow his divine sense to probe out. At this moment, he had no way to inquire about any information.
……
The cultivators in the Spirit Realm and other exquisite realms were completely unaware of all this.
Gu Yuanqing and Li Miaoxuan observed every change in Beiquan Cave Heaven undisturbed.
Unbeknownst to them, their auras had increased significantly, becoming purer and more profound.
Two more years have passed.
Li Miaoxuan finally awoke from her enlightenment. At this moment, she stood firmly above the mid-stage of the Void Immortal realm, and the floating appearance of her realm caused by the rapid progress had completely disappeared.
In fact, the changes in Beiquan Cave Heaven at this time were still of great use to her, but Gu Yuanqing's mind was completely immersed in comprehending the Great Dao, which weakened the pull on her mind. She did not want to affect or hinder Gu Yuanqing's enlightenment, so she broke away from it.
She did not get up, but sat cross-legged beside Gu Yuanqing, immersing her mind in the world of heaven and man, reviewing what she had gained from this experience, letting it settle and gradually transforming it into her own cultivation.
Six months later, she finally sensed a slight shift in Gu Yuanqing's aura beside her...
