Chapter 1658
Brothers United to Destroy the Demon
at the same time.
"You dare to chase after me all by yourself?"
"This person is quite bold."
"Furthermore, it is rumored that this person is skilled in pure Yang thunder magic, which is quite effective against our demonic methods. Moreover, his flying boat is fast, and it will probably catch up with us soon."
"This is a bit troublesome."
The fleeing Blood Demon Lord felt somewhat troubled when he saw Ling Pengyun chasing after him alone.
Although he possesses many powerful blood demons, he is quite confident and has some assurance of protecting himself.
But the situation here is too chaotic right now, and he doesn't want to cause any more trouble or create more chaos.
"Fellow Daoist, I have no intention of being your enemy. How about we part ways here?"
"I am willing to give you some spiritual items as a gift."
"..."
Left with no other choice, he transmitted his voice to Ling Pengyun.
'This Blood Primordial Demon is quite interesting.'
Upon hearing this, Ling Pengyun, who was in pursuit of the Blood Yuan Demon, was secretly delighted.
If he has no trump cards, then agreeing to his choice would naturally maximize his benefits.
But since he dared to chase after us now, he must be confident that he could kill him.
Under these circumstances, he was unwilling to give up such a good opportunity to kill the Blood Demon for some petty gains.
Although the Blood Demon Lord walks the demonic path, he is quite wealthy. If we can kill him, we will surely make a fortune.
Moreover, this demon has committed numerous evils. If it can be eliminated, it would be a good deed for the righteous path and would also eliminate a scourge.
After that, he ignored the Blood Yuan Demon and continued to relentlessly pursue the Blazing Sun Flying Boat beneath his feet.
"This person is truly insane."
"Since that's the case, then don't blame me for being ruthless."
"Do you really think I'm someone easy to bully?"
Seeing Ling Pengyun's actions, the Blood Demon Lord became somewhat furious.
As Ling Pengyun drew ever closer, he decided to strike first.
He then stopped fleeing and steered the Blood Essence Flying Boat towards Ling Pengyun, also summoning his fifth-grade superior natal magic treasure, the "Blood Essence Gourd".
This item is the Blood Demon Lord's most powerful technique, possessing the ability to cultivate Blood Fiends.
When his nine-headed natal spirit blood demon was at its most ordinary, it was slumbering within it.
As he poured his magic into it, nine streams of blood immediately gushed out.
In the end, it transformed into a bizarre, nine-headed, burly blood demon.
"Kill that righteous cultivator who has reached the Divine Realm!"
Blood Demon Lord was filled with killing intent, and he raised his hand and waved.
The nine-headed blood demon immediately went berserk, traversing the void and soaring into the air, directly pouncing towards Ling Pengyun.
"It is said that these Blood Fiends have strange and bizarre methods. Today, I will come and experience them for myself."
Seeing this, Ling Pengyun smiled confidently, raised his hand and summoned the Pine Tree Pearl, the Morning Gourd, the Nine Heavens Thunder Banner, and the Five Elements Treasures River.
The Five Elements Treasures River spun around and transformed into a Milky Way that reached the heavens. It roared across the sky and swept over the nine-headed Divine Transformation Blood Fiend, trapping it.
It continuously washed over their bodies, subjecting them to immense force, and some of the weaker blood demons were forced to retreat.
The three treasures, including the Pine Tree Pearl, combined to form a majestic Pine Tree Morning Glow Thunder Dragon.
Its power was extraordinary, even possessing the might of a near-perfect Nascent Soul cultivator. Upon its appearance, it overshadowed the Nine-Headed Blood Fiend.
Roar!
With a roar, it charged directly into the Five Elements Treasures River and engaged in a fierce battle with the nine-headed blood fiend.
Boom boom boom! ! ! !
A series of booming sounds immediately rang out.
However, the ancient pine, the morning glow, and the thunder dragon are, after all, pure and powerful Yang divine abilities, which are more effective at suppressing those blood demons.
In addition, its power is quite strong.
This gave it an advantage.
Even if one of the nine Blood Fiends is a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, it can still barely overpower them, just like the Five Elements Hundred Treasures River.
However, those blood fiends were really troublesome, and the Blood Essence Old Demon's Blood Essence Gourd always contained a large amount of living beings' blood.
Therefore, even if those blood fiends are injured, they can recover at a speed visible to the naked eye in a short period of time, as if they can never be killed.
"The strength of this righteous path is quite good, and they also have a lot of fifth-grade high-quality spiritual treasures."
"But you're unlucky to have run into me today."
Although Blood Yuan Old Demon was surprised by Ling Pengyun's strength, he was also somewhat overjoyed.
For him, as long as Ling Pengyun cannot directly and overwhelmingly kill the nine-headed blood demon, then the advantage is on his side.
He could have used the Blood Fiend's regenerative advantage to slowly wear down Ling Pengyun.
Moreover, he has been wandering the cultivation world for many years, and he doesn't only possess the Blood Essence Gourd, that one powerful magical treasure.
With a wave of his hand, he summoned a strange, blood-red treasure mirror, named the Blood Essence Treasure Mirror.
This item was created by the Blood Primordial Demon from some righteous powerhouses during the chaos between the righteous and demonic forces hundreds of years ago.
Its power is extremely domineering. It only takes a hundred years to accumulate enough power to unleash a shocking attack that directly taints the righteous spiritual treasures with the power of the Blood Demon, causing their origins to go out of control.
As the Blood Demon activated the item, the Blood Mirror immediately emitted a strange blood-red ray of light, which enveloped the Five Elements Treasures River.
The Five Elements Hundred Treasures River suddenly stopped, and a strange blood demon power appeared in its body, constantly eroding its origin.
They even have difficulty protecting themselves.
It was temporarily rendered unable to fight back, which greatly reduced the pressure on those Blood Fiends.
Even when they joined forces, they were able to slightly suppress the ancient pine tree and the morning glow thunder dragon by virtue of their powerful recovery ability.
After all, although the Thunder Dragon was powerful, it couldn't withstand the Nine Blood Fiends' incredible regenerative abilities.
"Chase, chase, all you ever do is chase."
"Now that you've caught up with me, feel good now?"
"Ha ha ha ha!!"
"..."
Blood Demon Lord's joy grew even stronger, and he was already somewhat confident of victory.
"A demonic artifact that can be tainted by righteous spiritual treasures?"
"This is a rare find. Looks like we'll have to get serious."
Ling Pengyun's expression hardened slightly. He then withdrew the Five Elements Hundred Treasures River, which was temporarily powerless to fight back, and took out the Netherworld Blade, waving it towards the void.
"Great spatial power... Netherworld Domain!"
"Congeal!"
A powerful spatial force suddenly emerged, isolating the surrounding天地力 (heaven and earth power) from the Blood Yuan Old Demon.
Moreover, the surrounding area for thousands of miles seemed to be shrouded by a huge dome, forming a 'small world' that ordinary people could not break through and escape from, which was extremely mysterious.
Immediately afterwards, a spatial passage connecting to the ancient Ghost Realm Shadow Secret Realm appeared.
Moreover, a thin figure darted out from within.
The visitor was none other than Ling Pengxing, who had been cultivating in seclusion in the Shadow Realm.
“Brother Pengyun, you have truly given me a great gift.”
"Give me those nine blood demons that look like sandbags."
"Their characteristics are just what I need to hone my swordsmanship."
"As for that old devil, I'll leave him to you."
Seeing the situation before him, Ling Pengxing's brows flashed with boundless brilliance.
His sword intent soared to the heavens, and he immediately summoned his fifth-grade superior natal ghost immortal flying sword, striking towards the nine-headed blood fiend.
Although the Ghost Immortal Flying Sword looks extremely ordinary, just like an ordinary flying sword, it doesn't even reveal its sword intent.
But in reality, it contained terrifying power. It could even directly shatter a Blood Fiend in the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm with a single sword strike.
Even with its strong regenerative abilities, there was simply no way to save it; it was utterly lifeless.
He also summoned the Ghost Fairy Lamp to ward off evil spirits.
The Ghost Immortal Lamp's abilities were even more extraordinary. With a flash of ghostly light, countless spirits suddenly surged forth from its internal space.
There were even more than twenty spirit ghosts at the Nascent Soul stage among them.
Most of them belonged to the family, and a few to him.
However, all those spirits were cultivated by it.
Subsequently, the Ghost Immortal Lamp summoned many powerful ghost battle formations and, with the help of those spirit ghosts, condensed many battle formation spirit ghosts.
'superior!'
The battle spirits surged towards the blood demons in an overwhelming manner.
The Ghost Immortal Lamp then worked with Ling Pengxing to suppress the blood demons completely.
"Brother Pengxing and Senior Ghost Immortal are truly getting stronger and stronger."
"But that's fine too."
"It's perfect that the two of us brothers, along with Senior Ghost Immortal, can work together to slay the demon."
Upon seeing this, Ling Pengyun was overjoyed, and his confidence soared.
Then, he commanded the ancient pine tree and the morning glow thunder dragon to attack the Blood Yuan Old Demon.
"To create a spatial passage that seems to lead to an ancient ghost realm in the blink of an eye? And to construct a spatial trapping device?"
"How can this be!"
"Could it be that the blade-like spiritual treasure in Ling Pengyun's hand... is the Netherworld Blade that's rumored to be from the Ghost Realm?"
"The other one, the Ghost Dao cultivator at the late Nascent Soul stage, is probably Ling Pengxing, the renowned Ghost Dao Sword God of the Cangxuan lineage in his early years."
"His ability to reach the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm is probably closely related to the Netherworld Blade and the ancient Ghost Realm."
As Blood Demon gazed at the ancient ghost realm emanating from the spatial passage constructed by the Netherworld Blade, the joy on his face froze, replaced by boundless fear.
In addition, he was, after all, a member of the demonic path, and had been to the ancient ghost realm several times in the past, so he was extremely knowledgeable about all sorts of things in the ancient ghost realm.
He had heard rumors about the Netherworld Blade before.
But he really didn't expect that such a treasure from the ancient ghost realm would fall into Ling Pengyun's hands.
The benefits that such treasures can bring are extraordinary.
Blood Demon Lord guessed something.
"No wonder Ling Pengyun dared to chase after us."
"And the Cangxuan lineage rose to prominence so quickly."
He suddenly realized, but it was too late.
Moreover, Ling Pengyun's thunder dragon was incredibly fast.
In addition, the Blood Yuan Old Demon's nine-headed Blood Fiend was entangled by Ling Pengxing, the Ghost Dao Sword Cultivator, and the Blood Yuan Power stored in his Blood Yuan Treasure Mirror for a hundred years was also consumed, so he was temporarily unable to summon a powerful attack.
He was then forced to use his only remaining fifth-tier high-grade magic treasure, the "Blood Essence Magic Shield".
This item was stolen from a late-stage Nascent Soul evil spirit during his early adventures in the ancient ghost realm, and he refined it into a demonic treasure.
In addition, after years of wandering, he only managed to acquire three high-grade fifth-tier magical treasures.
These are the Blood Essence Gourd, the Blood Essence Treasure Mirror, and the Blood Essence Magic Shield.
This magic shield is a defensive magical artifact, its entire body is blood red, and it is about half the size of a person.
Moreover, it is not only physically sturdy, but also contains a condensed defensive light barrier.
A huge dome then covered him.
Subsequently, the Blood Demon also summoned many powerful fifth-tier attack talismans or other protective items, which barely managed to block Ling Pengyun's thunder dragon.
However, the power of that thunder dragon was truly formidable. Under its continuous bombardment, those protective objects were shattered one after another.
Even the light barrier erected by the Blood Essence Shield couldn't withstand it and was eventually blasted open with a huge hole.
Roar!
Seizing the opportunity, the thunder dragon charged straight into the opening and pounced on the Blood Yuan Demon.
"No!"
Blood Demon Lord's brows furrowed in terror as he tried to muster all his strength to resist, but to no avail.
A crisp shattering sound was heard.
He was blasted into a pulp by the thunder dragon, just like a watermelon that had exploded.
During this time, his primordial spirit even attempted to escape, transforming into a streak of blood light and fleeing into the distance.
However, it was blocked by Ling Pengyun's pre-arranged Netherworld Domain Trapping Technique.
"The clown."
Ling Pengyun sneered and immediately chased after him. Using a special method, he captured the primordial spirit and sealed it in a fifth-grade, mid-level Soul-Locking Bottle that he had refined in his early years.
He also placed several restrictions to suppress the primordial spirit within it.
Ling Pengyun's divine sense had, after all, reached the peak of the Nascent Soul stage.
The restrictions he set up were extremely powerful.
Even though the Blood Demon's primordial spirit still had a lot of power left, it was difficult to stir up any trouble, and it lost consciousness with resentment.
'The essence left behind by its primordial spirit is truly remarkable; in this way, its primordial spirit would also be excellent material for refining treasures.'
'Furthermore, his Blood Essence Gourd, Blood Essence Treasure Mirror, and Blood Essence Magic Shield are all quite powerful. With some refinement, they could be transformed into decent righteous spiritual treasures.'
"Especially that Blood Essence Mirror is truly domineering. If it had unleashed a few more beams of its light earlier, even with my brother Pengxing's help, it would have been difficult to kill that old demon."
After picking up the three powerful magical treasures left behind by the Blood Yuan Demon, Ling Pengyun's face was full of joy.
Then, he rushed towards the place where Ling Pengxing was fighting those blood demons.
At this moment, because of the tragic death of the Blood Demon, those Blood Fiends suffered an extremely powerful backlash.
Moreover, they also received a large amount of blood from the Blood Elder Demon.
Their strength is less than 30% of what it was when they were at their peak.
Soon, Ling Pengxing had it completely under his control.
But this meant nothing to Ling Pengxing, who immediately decided to cooperate with Ling Pengyun to kill them.
However, Ghost Lantern dissuaded him from doing so.
"Be merciful."
"Such high-level, eerie blood demons are extremely rare, and they are also considered a branch of ghosts. If I can refine their essence, it might be beneficial for me to cultivate spirit ghosts."
The spirit of the Ghost Immortal Lamp transmitted its voice to Ling Pengyun and Ling Pengxing.
“Alright, then we will capture the nine-headed blood fiend alive and hand it over to you, senior.”
"However, if you achieve something after cultivating spirit ghosts in the future, I hope you will cultivate more powerful spirit ghosts for our clan."
Upon hearing this, Ling Pengyun immediately agreed.
After all, those blood demons are now suffering a backlash, and much of their original essence has been lost.
Even if you manage to obtain many of them and capture their primordial spirits, you're unlikely to gain any benefit.
Rather than doing that, it would be more cost-effective to hand it over to the Ghost Fairy Lamp.
After all, its ability to cultivate spirits is quite good.
Ling Pengxing and Ling Pengyun shared the same idea.
They immediately set off, using their formidable strength to knock out the remaining Blood Fiends and then placing restrictions within their bodies to seal off their power.
They were immediately rendered powerless, as if they had no strength left to kill a chicken.
"Thank you very much. As for cultivating high-level spirit ghosts, that's a piece of cake."
Upon seeing this, Ghost Immortal Lamp was overjoyed and immediately stored the blood demons into his internal space.
He then summoned some ghostly chains to bind them, intending to study their unique bloodthirsty origins later. (End of Chapter)
