The Blood Mountain Mansion disaster.

Instantly, it drew the attention of others.

When someone saw the corpses strewn all over the Blood Mountain Mansion, their pupils involuntarily dilated, as if they had witnessed some terrifying scene.

"So many corpses!"

"Who on earth would dare to commit such an outrage in Blood Mountain Mansion that would provoke both heaven and man!"

The onlookers were all shocked.

In Nanyang County’s Twelve Prefectures, Blood Mountain Mansion was also a rather key location, extraordinary in its own right.

Moreover, within Blood Mountain Mansion, there were numerous martial arts sects and noble families, but now, it seemed as if all these sects and families had vanished without a trace.

However.

Before these people could react to their shock,

a horrific power suddenly rose from within Blood Mountain Mansion, an explosion of bizarre, evil, and all kinds of negative emotions.

In an instant.

The earth quaked.

The heavens and earth changed color.

It was as if a world-defying evil demon had been born.

This terrifying power, in the blink of an eye, covered the entire Blood Mountain Mansion, and even beyond its borders, it was clearly audible.

For a moment.

In Nanyang County, many powerful figures from martial arts sects and noble families were disturbed and looked towards the direction of Blood Mountain Mansion, their eyes filled with horror.

Some veteran powerhouses even remembered a scene from hundreds of years ago.

"Blood Mountain Mansion is in turmoil, could it be that Evil Spirit has been reborn!?"

"Back in the day, when the Evil Spirit caused chaos, Tianyang Sword Sect and the Evil Suppression Bureau paid a heavy price to seal it within Blood Mountain Mansion, if this Evil Spirit truly re-emerges, I fear there will be utter chaos in the world!"

"Damn it..."

When these strong individuals thought of the scene from hundreds of years ago, their hearts chilled.

In front of such a level of Evil Spirit, even magicians were as insignificant as ants.

That year, when the Evil Spirit wreaked havoc in Nanyang County and created boundless slaughter, it was not easy for the Evil Suppression Bureau and Tianyang Sword Sect to suppress and seal that Evil Spirit.

...

Chongming Prefecture.

Iron Sword Sect.

At this moment, as if sensing something, Lv Ying, the Sect Master of Iron Sword Sect, couldn’t help but look in the direction of Blood Mountain Mansion, his eyes filled with shock.

"Blood Mountain Mansion is in turmoil, Nanyang County is going to be in chaos again!"

"If that Evil Spirit really is reborn, who knows how many more will die..."

Lv Ying sighed.

Iron Sword Sect did not wish to meddle in the conflicts and turmoils of the world; after all, the world was in great disarray now, and if Iron Sword Sect got involved, the centuries-old foundation could be destroyed in their own hands.

Therefore.

When the Guangyang Army invaded Nanyang County, even affecting Chongming Prefecture, Lv Ying had turned a blind eye, indifferent to it all.

Of course.

This was also due to fear of Gu Qingfeng.

After all, everyone knew that standing behind the Guangyang Prince was a powerful being with Martial Arts Divinity, capable of rivaling the Martial Ancestor from ten thousand years ago.

Now, seeing the change in Blood Mountain Mansion, Lv Ying could already foresee the kind of situation that would arise next.

Yet.

There was nothing he could do.

According to the historical records of the Iron Sword Sect, the Evil Spirit from hundreds of years ago was particularly powerful, not something the Iron Sword Sect could contend with.

Even more so.

The founder of Iron Sword Sect had perished at the hands of that Evil Spirit.

Right at this moment.

An extremely domineering Sword Intent suddenly surged, ancient in its origins, yet carrying no scent of decay, but rather an unstoppable sharpness.

The emergence of this Sword Intent made the entire Iron Sword Sect tremble, and Lv Ying’s complexion changed again. He then proceeded towards the back mountain of the sect.

There, amidst the boulders that had crumbled, a grey-robed Sword Daoist had appeared at some point, unnoticed.

Upon seeing the existence of the grey-robed Sword Daoist, Lv Ying hurriedly bowed down in salute.

"Lv Ying, Sect Master of Iron Sword Sect, pays respects to the Supreme Elder!"

"Are you the current Sect Master of Iron Sword Sect?"

The Sword Daoist looked at the man before him, a sharp gleam suddenly piercing through his turbid eyes, and when it landed on the latter, it was as if pierced by an ominous presence.

Even Lv Ying, now an Innate Grandmaster in Cultivation Realm, trembled instinctively, his blood circulation slightly stagnating.

This change.

Made Lv Ying’s face even more reverent.

"Indeed, I am the current Sect Master of Iron Sword Sect. May I ask if the Supreme Elder has any instructions for coming out of seclusion?"

For Lv Ying, this was the first time he had truly seen this Supreme Elder; after all, when he had joined Iron Sword Sect, this individual had already been in closed-door meditation.

The fact he could recognize the elder was because within Iron Sword Sect, there were portraits and some information left about the person.

All this time.

Lv Ying had believed that the Supreme Elder, who had been in closed-door meditation for two hundred years, had long since passed away. To his surprise, the elder was still alive.

Thinking of this.

Lv Ying’s heart was also somewhat excited.

After all, according to the records, this Supreme Elder was an expert of vital energy and blood when he had entered seclusion, and now after two hundred years of closed-door cultivation, his strength must have increased even further.

Especially the terrifying aura that Lv Ying felt from the Sword Daoist made him understand the other’s formidability.

Although the Iron Sword Sect could not be said to have declined, it was merely maintaining its status as a sect. If a top-notch powerhouse were to emerge, then the Iron Sword Sect could surely advance further.

To speak more broadly,

With such a powerhouse at the helm, the Iron Sword Sect might even become like the Divine Martial Sect of Wuzhou, a leading major force on par with the Immortal Sect families.

For a moment,

Lv Ying’s mind was filled with numerous thoughts.

The Sword Daoist glanced at him and then looked towards the direction of Blood Mountain Mansion, where the colors of heaven and earth changed, as if a peerless evil demon had emerged.

"Five hundred years have passed, and that Evil Spirit has reemerged. If we can’t reseal it this time, disaster will inevitably befall the world. I came out of seclusion with the purpose of dealing with this Evil Spirit!"

The Sword Daoist’s words changed Lv Ying’s expression, and all the miscellaneous thoughts in his mind dissipated.

"Supreme Elder, the Evil Spirit of Blood Mountain Mansion is no ordinary foe. Back then, the Tianyang Sword Sect and the Evil Suppression Bureau joined forces just to barely seal it. Even so, both sides paid a great price.

If the Supreme Elder is to confront this Evil Spirit now, any mishap could lead to a loss for our Iron Sword Sect!"

It wasn’t that he looked down on the Sword Daoist, but rather that Lv Ying was more aware of the horror of the Evil Spirit of Blood Mountain Mansion.

Such an existence.

Even experts at the Transformation Realm might not be a match for it.

The Sword Daoist, having been in seclusion for many years, even if his strength had increased, it was unlikely that he reached the Great Grandmaster Realm.

To take a step back,

Even if the Sword Daoist truly reached the Great Grandmaster rank,

A Martial Arts Grandmaster might not outmatch an expert of the Transformation Realm, after all.

In Lv Ying’s view, the Sword Daoist was the hope for revitalizing the Iron Sword Sect and absolutely should not fall at Blood Mountain Mansion.

Hearing this,

The Sword Daoist furrowed his brows and looked at Lv Ying with some dissatisfaction: "When the founder of the Iron Sword Sect established our sect, the purpose was to eradicate Evil Spirits and protect peace in the region.

When the Evil Spirit of Blood Mountain Mansion appeared, the founder went to suppress it personally. After that battle, the founder returned with severe injuries and transcended within a hundred years due to his wounds. As his disciple, it is only right and proper for me to seek vengeance on his behalf.

Moreover, the emergence of the Evil Spirit will bring disaster to the people of the world, how could I sit idly by!"

The Sword Daoist’s resolute attitude left Lv Ying opening and closing his mouth, unsure of what to say.

After a long while,

Lv Ying finally spoke: "Now that the Guangyang Prince has taken charge of Nanyang County, and with the news of the appearance of the Evil Spirit in Blood Mountain Mansion, he will not stand by and do nothing. As long as the Martial Saint behind the Guangyang Prince makes a move, there will be a chance to suppress the Evil Spirit of Blood Mountain Mansion."

Saying this,

Lv Ying quickly sorted out his thoughts and hastened his speech.

"Therefore, there is absolutely no need for the Supreme Elder to take risks. You only need to wait for the Martial Saint to arrive, and all problems can be solved. If even the Martial Saint cannot resolve it, then there is even less necessity for the Supreme Elder to intervene!"

"Martial Saint?"

The Sword Daoist’s brows knitted slightly.

"Who is this Martial Saint you speak of, who dares to claim the title of saint?"

As he spoke,

The Sword Daoist recalled numerous memories in his mind, but could not remember any strong individual who called themselves Martial Saint.

After all,

The title ’Martial Saint’ was not to be taken lightly.

Without the corresponding strength and destiny, rashly claiming to be a saint was courting death.

Lv Ying said: "This Martial Saint did not claim the title for himself. It was conferred by the court through an imperial edict, bestowing upon him the honorific title of Martial Saint..."

After that,

Lv Ying recounted everything about Gu Qingfeng.

The more he spoke,

The more severe the look of shock on the Sword Daoist’s face became.

By the time Lv Ying finished speaking, the Sword Daoist’s expression was filled with emotion.

"I had not expected that, in the two hundred years I was in seclusion, such an outstanding and brilliant individual would emerge in the world, slaying Gu Yutian with a single stroke. It is no wonder he earned the title of Martial Saint.

His Martial Arts Cultivation may truly be comparable to the Martial Ancestor of millennia past!"

"With such a powerhouse’s emergence, Martial Arts can surely be revitalized!"

The Sword Daoist’s face was full of smiles.

The decline of Martial Arts.

This had been a long-standing issue.

Since the Martial Ancestor transcended and Magicians rose, Martial Arts had gradually become less prominent. But now, with the appearance of such a powerhouse, the revitalization of Martial Arts was only a matter of time.

Afterwards,

The Sword Daoist looked in the direction of Blood Mountain Mansion, his smile fading as his expression turned solemn again.

"According to what you said, that Martial Saint indeed has the capability to deal with the Evil Spirit of Blood Mountain Mansion. However, he resides in Guangyang Prefecture, and it would take some time for him to be informed and arrive.

For the Evil Spirit, increasing its strength merely requires the slaughter of living beings. If the Evil Spirit revived from Blood Mountain Mansion and no one came forward to resist, it would unquestionably lead to greater trouble.

My years are quite advanced, and in this life, I likely have no chance to take that next step. Rather than fading away in obscurity, I would prefer to exert my last bit of strength to secure a glimmer of hope for the people of Nanyang County!"

At this point, the Sword Daoist gestured, and a sword Qi shattered the rocks, revealing the cave dwelling within.

"This is where I practiced in seclusion. Inside, there are some of my insights and some of the inheritances of the Iron Sword Sect. As the Sect Master, you should enter and see what you can gain; how much you obtain depends on your own destiny!"

"As for the Iron Sect’s sword, I need it to contend with the Evil Spirit of Blood Mountain Mansion. If I fall there, you can go to Blood Mountain Mansion later and retrieve this sword!"

The Sword Daoist patted the hilt of the sword on his back, speaking to Lv Ying as if he were imparting his last wishes.

Without waiting for Lv Ying to speak, the Sword Daoist let out a long howl, and a terrifying True Qi burst forth. In an instant, he disappeared from the spot, heading towards Blood Mountain Mansion.
