Chapter 214: Blood Element Technique! Successive Annihilation of Sects! Chaos in the Black Horn Domain!
The fate of the Blood Sect had long been anticipated by Gu He.
However, at this moment, he had no intention of thinking about these matters.
In an ordinary tavern, Gu He was excitedly sorting through his gains from this operation.
Who would have thought that the killer who wiped out the Blood Demon Fan Lao would be hiding in this inconspicuous tavern?
At this moment, Gu He's consciousness was within his own system space.
After entering the Blood Sect's treasury, Gu He had looted everything he could find, almost dumping all of the Blood Sect's treasures into his system space.
Half an hour later, Gu He finally finished organizing his gains.
Among them:
- Seven-grade spiritual herbs, ten in total.
- Six-grade spiritual herbs, one hundred and fifty in total.
- Six-grade magic cores, fifty.
- Five-grade spiritual herbs, three hundred in total.
- Five-grade magic cores, two hundred.
As for items below the fifth grade, Gu He didn't bother organizing them and simply left them aside.
These were just the magic cores and spiritual herbs. There were also numerous treasures, magic core weapons, and martial art scrolls.
Among them:
- Three sixth-grade magic core weapons.
- Twenty fifth-grade magic core weapons.
- Five high-level Profound-tier martial arts scrolls.
- Ten high-level Profound-tier combat technique scrolls.
As for Earth-tier combat techniques, Gu He hadn't found any in the Blood Sect's treasury. However, after devouring Fan Lao's soul, Gu He had gained quite a few valuable items from his memory.
Among them, the martial art that Fan Lao had cultivated caught Gu He's attention.
No one would have expected that the leader of the Blood Sect, Blood Demon Fan Lao, was actually cultivating an advanced Earth-tier martial art.
And this martial art focused on body cultivation!
The martial art Fan Lao cultivated was called the "Blood Element Technique."
This technique was something Fan Lao had obtained from an ancient relic.
From Fan Lao's memories, Gu He learned that this martial art originated from the ancient Blood Element Sect, a sect specializing in blood-based techniques.
The Blood Element Technique primarily cultivated the physical body, and after reaching the Grand Mastery level, one could condense a Blood Element Demon Body. It could maintain an immortal physical body with unending blood essence, essentially achieving a state of immortality.
Fan Lao could have achieved great success with this technique.
Unfortunately, he made a big mistake, which trapped him at the Emperor rank, making it difficult for him to break through.
The core of the Blood Element Technique was to condense a Blood Element within the body. The Blood Element could contain a large amount of pure blood energy, and in critical moments, it could nourish the physical body, almost granting an immortal body.
However, the crucial point was that the Blood Element's condensation required powerful and pure blood essence, which directly impacted the quality of the Blood Element. This was the foundation of cultivating the Blood Element Technique.
Fan Lao, driven by his deep grudges, had sought powerful blood essence to directly condense his Blood Element by ambushing a Martial Spirit level expert. This resulted in an unstable foundation, limiting Fan Lao's achievements.
He had paid a huge price, plundering countless people's blood, just to barely reach the Emperor rank in his cultivation.
Given his foundation, the Emperor rank was his limit, and he had no hope of breaking through to the Dou Emperor rank.
"What a waste of a good thing."
Thinking of this, Gu He shook his head. An advanced Earth-tier martial art, when cultivated by this guy, had been completely wasted.
Fortunately, he had encountered Gu He, so these treasures wouldn't gather dust.
Gu He thought that if he gave the Blood Element Technique to his disciples, he might be able to cultivate a true immortal martial art.
Whether it was demonic or not, Gu He didn't care. As long as it made him stronger.
This Blood Element Technique devoured blood essence, greatly enhancing the physique, making it ideal for his mediocre disciples.
Of course, Fan Lao had obtained more than just the Blood Element Technique from the ancient Blood Element Sect's relics.
There were many secret techniques among them, which Gu He considered quite valuable.
Especially one called the Bloodthirst Art, which caught Gu He's attention.
When this technique was used, it could add a bloodthirsty power to attacks, simultaneously plundering the opponent's vital energy and nourishing oneself.
This was definitely a marvelous secret technique for conquering enemies.
There was also a Blood Escape Technique, an excellent escape technique, but it came at a great cost, as it consumed a large amount of blood essence. After using it once, one's strength would likely significantly decrease.
However, if it could save one's life, what was a little price to pay?
After thoroughly inventorying his gains, Gu He left the system space feeling satisfied.
This time, annihilating the Blood Sect had made him overnight riches, and he had tasted the sweetness of it.
As they say, one doesn't get rich without unexpected windfalls.
Gu He thought that if he could have a few more windfalls like this, he would truly become wealthy.
So, who would be his next target?
In Gu He's mind, he had already begun to plan his second target.
Blackbone Ridge, a place of death, earned its name because it was filled with countless corpses and saturated with a dense aura of death. It was also known as the Blackbone Tomb.
In fact, many years ago, this area was just an ordinary mountain ridge. However, after the arrival of the Blackbone Tomb's master, who buried thousands of people alive in this mountain ridge, it became a dead land.
The cultivation technique of the Blackbone Tomb required absorbing a large amount of death energy to enhance one's strength. As a result, every so often, a large number of people were buried alive in this mountain ridge to replenish the absorbed death energy.
The disciples of the Blackbone Tomb practiced in caves, each of which was filled with countless corpses. A continuous stream of corpse energy seeped out from these caves.
Swish!
Under the cover of night, three dark figures arrived at the entrance of a cave deep within the mountain ridge at an astonishing speed.
This place was where the death energy in the entire Blackbone Tomb was the densest and the location of the Blackbone Tomb's master's cultivation.
"Master!"
The three dark figures arrived outside the cave and respectfully called out.
As they spoke, after a moment, another figure shrouded in a black robe emerged from the valley.
"Three protectors, the death energy in the mountain ridge has been thinning lately. It seems it's time to replenish it. Send your disciples to capture some people and bury them alive here to supplement the death energy."
The figure in the black robe, the master of the Blackbone Tomb, spoke with a hoarse voice and exuded a terrifying aura of death, sending shivers down one's spine.
"Yes, Master."
Hearing the master's words, the three protectors immediately bowed and responded.
The master nodded slightly and turned to walk into the cave.
However, as he walked, he suddenly felt something was amiss.
He then turned around and saw that the three protectors were still standing in place, motionless.
Furrowing his brow, the master couldn't help but feel a sense of unease.
"Who dares to kill the protectors of the Blackbone Tomb? Show yourself!"
The master couldn't help but shout loudly, his voice hoarse.
"Hehehe!"
Just at that moment, a sharp and eerie laughter rang out, as if in response to the master.
"Who is it?"
"Who are you?"
Hearing this eerie laughter, the master suddenly felt a chill creeping up his spine.
Suddenly, he thought of Fan Lao's death, and a hint of fear appeared on his face.
Could it be that this person was the one who killed Fan Lao?
With this thought, the master's fear intensified.
Fan Lao was a Five-Star Dou Emperor, ranked fifth on the Blacklist, and he had been killed. What about himself?
He was only a Two-Star Dou Emperor, ranked seventh on the Blacklist.
If it was indeed that person, wouldn't he be completely defenseless?
As these thoughts raced through his mind, the master couldn't help but want to turn and run.
However, at that moment, a shadow, as ghostly as could be, suddenly appeared behind him, and a chilling "Soul Seize" followed.
In the next moment, a shrill scream echoed, particularly eerie in this desolate mountain ridge.
Not long after, the master's soul was forcibly separated from his body, turning into a black bead.
"Hehehe!"
The dark figure grinned as it devoured the black bead, then expertly cleared out all the treasures of the Blackbone Tomb and drifted away.
The next day.
Just like Fan Lao's mysterious death, the death of the Blackbone Tomb's master, a Dou Emperor, without a sound, caused quite a commotion in the Black Horn Domain.
Of course, along with it came endless killings.
Without the Dou Emperor-level master of the Blackbone Tomb, the sect was quickly infiltrated and destroyed by various forces, and the disciples of the Blackbone Tomb were massacred.
The fall of the Blackbone Tomb added to the already heavy atmosphere of dread in the minds of the leaders of the remaining major forces.
Especially for some leaders of weaker forces whose strength was inferior to that of Fan Lao and the others, they couldn't sit still and were constantly on edge, fearing that the Grim Reaper might come for them next.
Some leaders of weaker forces even began to discuss and form alliances, seeking safety in numbers, guarding against the sudden threat of annihilation.
At the same time, a piece of news began circulating among the major forces in the Black Horn Domain.
The mysterious killer behind these deaths came from the extremely secretive Soul Hall!
