Chapter 307: Blood Pool
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Because only when Lu Yuan’s main body was present would Lu Yuan have a way to project the Black Jade Peak of the netherworld into the World of Living.
The presence of absence of Black Jade Peak would greatly affect Lu Yuan’s strength.
After all, he needed Black Jade Peak to be able to unleash many of his current techniques to the fullest.
At the moment, Lu Yuan had almost finished setting up the Corrupted Divine Soul Array using the Paper Man.
In a place where the Shixian Sect cultivators didn’t notice, there were countless netherstones.
Moreover, those netherstone were not ordinary netherstones. They were all mid-grade netherstones and above.
Lu Yuan roughly calculated that he had used at least a million mid-grade netherstones, tens of thousands of high-grade netherstones, and hundreds of supreme grade netherstones to set up the Corrupted Divine Soul Array this time.
If in the netherworld, such an array formation could even injure an Apotheosis Stage cultivator if they were not careful, let alone a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator.
However, in the World of Living, the greatest use of the netherstones was to temporarily shield against the heavens, allowing the souls to maximize their strength for a certain period of time.
Even so, the Corrupted Divine Soul Array could only last for two hours, and that was provided the array was cast at the time when the Yin Qi was most dense.
After two hours, no matter what the result was, the underworld army had to return.
Otherwise, what awaited them was being discovered by the heavens and being hit by the heavenly lightning.
At the moment, there was still about two hours before midnight.
Lu Yuan began to further investigate the situation in the Shixian Sect.
He felt that something was wrong with the situation in the Shixian Sect.
The people from the Shixian Sect… Wasn’t it a little too few?
Where did the other disciples go?
Lu Yuan controlled the Paper Man and sneaked into the Shixian Sect’s cave abode.
What entered his eyes was a huge tomb built atop a dragon bone.
As Lu Yuan advanced, he discovered that the entire dragon bone was covered with traces of array formations.
Some of the arrays were old and some were new. Thirty percent of them seemed to have been set up in the last hundred years.
That made Lu Yuan even more confused.
He had never heard that Shixian Sect was going to recast the sect’s arrays. What were the new array traces about?
On the way, Lu Yuan realized that there were not many people within 100 meters of the Shixian Sect, which was said to have 100 thousand cultivators and a million zombies.
The desolated territory did not have the aura of one of the members of the three great devilish sects of the lower realm.
Where were the people and zombies?
Lu Yuan walked past the main hall of the Shixian Sect and arrived at the corpse nurturing hall.
Logically speaking, there should be countless zombies in the corpse nurturing hall of the Shixian Sect.
However, Lu Yuan took a glance and saw that nine out of ten of the densely packed coffins in front of him were empty.
Meanwhile, the zombies present were fresh and were ordinary undeads that had yet to condense their evil aura.
Something wasn’t right. Something was very wrong with this place.
Lu Yuan wasn’t a fool. There was obviously something wrong with the situation.
The disappearance of the disciples of the Shixian Sect could still be explained by most people being attracted by the Qingyun Sect’s immortal attributes and heading over to Qingyun Sect.
However, the zombies in the Shixian Sect would usually be left behind by the seniors of the Shixian Sect.
Only when the corpse controlling technique of a Shixian Sect disciple reached a certain level could their zombie be awakened.
It could be said that a large part of the Shixian Sect’s strength came from the sleeping zombies.
According to Lu Yuan’s knowledge, although there was only one Nascent Soul Stage cultivator in the Shixian Sect, there were at least five or six Nascent Soul Stage ancient corpses in the sect.
Not to mention, there were even more Core Formation Stage and Foundation Establishment Stage zombies.
However, Lu Yuan did not find any such zombies along the way.
Not to mention Core Formation Stage zombies, even Foundation Establishment Stage zombies were not seen.
Thinking of that, Lu Yuan began to control the Paper Man and walked toward the deepest part of the Shixian Sect’s cave, where he sensed a shocking energy fluctuation.
Not long after, Lu Yuan arrived at the deepest part of Shixian Sect’s cave.
It was the blood pool, the most important place in the Shixian Sect’s cave.
Along the blood pool, there was a huge bronze door.
Lu Yuan controlled the Paper Man to go to the bronze door, then had it lie on the ground and squeeze through the gap under the door.
When he saw the scene behind the bronze door, Lu Yuan was stunned.
At the moment, the blood pool was like a huge heart.
Countless blood vessels extended from the huge heart in the center, connecting to the countless zombies and disciples around it.
In the middle, there was a withered old man.
The lower half of the old man’s body sank into the huge heart, while the upper half of his body split into ten blood vessels that connected to the ten ancient corpses behind him.
Lu Yuan took a closer look. Those ten ancient corpses were all Nascent Soul Stage ancient corpses without exception.
Ten Nascent Soul Stage ancient corpses, countless Core Formation Stage and Foundation Establishment Stage zombies, and tens of thousands of Shixian Sect disciples.
F*ck, was this guy going to sacrifice the entire sect?
“Hmm?”
The old man, who had half of his body fused with the distorted heart, suddenly opened his eyes and looked in the direction of the bronze door.
Subconsciously, Lu Yuan instantly disintegrated the Paper Man into countless fragments.
Lu Yuan, whose main body was 10 kilometers away from the Shixian Sect, slowly opened his eyes. “Sigh, every time I bring my main body out, I encounter troublesome situations. Isn’t fate deliberately making things difficult for me?”
Although the situation in the Shixian Sect was very strange, and the blood-colored heart was obviously not right, Lu Yuan felt that he had no choice but to continue his plan.
If he wanted to condense his Dharma Idol azure dragon sword in a short period of time, Lu Yuan would need to borrow the help of the huge dragon bone in the Shixian Sect territory.
Moreover, Lu Yuan had already set up the Corrupted Divine Soul Array and his main body was there. He could not just leave without doing anything, right?
Fortunately, Lu Yuan had thought of the possibility of encountering an unexpected situation before coming, so he had prepared some backup plans.
It was just that he had not prepared to use the backup plan unless it was absolutely necessary.
Because once Lu Yuan used this backup plan, it would be really troublesome for him to hide himself again.
After sighing, Lu Yuan’s expression gradually became serious.
Although he didn’t know how powerful Shixian Sect’s strange heart was, Lu Yuan did a rough estimation.
The heart seemed to be weaker than Xu Ze and Jing Ming.
The other party definitely hadn’t reached the Apotheosis Stage yet and should still be at the Nascent Soul stage.
In that case, Lu Yuan could still handle it.
Thinking of that, Lu Yuan conjured a huge white bone banner in his right hand.
The white bone banner was the key to activating the Corrupted Divine Soul Array.
No matter what Shixian Sect was doing, Lu Yuan would let them have a taste of his great summoning spell.
It was already midnight, and the Corrupted Divine Soul Array was activated…
Night Parade of One Hundred Demons!
Boom!
“What happened?”
“Look outside, something’s happened!”
Some of the ordinary disciples who were left behind in the Shixian Sect ran out after feeling the huge shaking of the ground.
Then they were horrified to find a door made entirely of bones before the Shixian Sect’s main gate.
And at the top of the door, there were three big words written: “Gates of Hell”.
As the door slowly opened, a group of armored skeleton ghost soldiers slowly walked out under the lead of a horse-faced ghost general.
The horse-faced ghost general carried a huge bone axe and aimed it in the direction of the Shixian Sect.
In the next second, countless skeleton soldiers charged toward the Shixian Sect.
As the large number of skeleton ghost soldiers attacked, a muffled bell immediately sounded from the Shixian Sect.
Then, thousands of Shixian Sect disciples commanded a large number of zombies that were only at the Qi Cultivation Stage and the Foundation Establishment Stage to rush out of the cave and collide with the skeleton ghost soldiers.
Zombies that were known for their brutality and bloodthirst were now suppressed by the underworld army.
The zombie poison and the tough physique that zombies were so proud of did not have much effect on the skeleton ghost soldiers.
After all, it was obviously impossible to infect a group of skeletons that had no flesh and blood.
Lu Yuan didn’t look too relaxed as he watched the underworld army crushing the Shixian Sect, because he knew very well that it was just the beginning of everything….
