Cultivation Begins From The Desert
Chapter 133 - 131: Blood Corpse
CHAPTER 133: CHAPTER 131: BLOOD CORPSE
It’s impossible for just the Chen Family Ancestor and Zhang Yunpeng to capture Blood Mo Luo.
Therefore, before taking action, the Chen Family Ancestor and Zhang Yunpeng had already informed Chen Ping’an at Bai Tuo Peak, as well as Cao Wenjin at the Yellow Sand Sect Mountain Gate, to come for support.
At that time, Chen Ping’an was at Bai Tuo Peak entertaining Zhouyang, who had come to visit. Upon receiving the Communication Flying Sword from the Chen Family Ancestor, he immediately released his Flying Sword and hurried to Ping’an Marketplace for support.
Upon hearing that Blood Mo Luo appeared at Ping’an Marketplace, Zhouyang’s face also dramatically changed. With his intelligence, he clearly understood Blood Mo Luo’s intentions at the marketplace.
Thinking that his parents might be in danger, he suddenly became anxious and impatient, wishing he could grow wings and fly back to the marketplace.
Immediately, he too left Bai Tuo Peak in a panic, rushing desperately towards the marketplace.
"Hmm? First, Chen Ping’an tensely left Bai Tuo Peak, and now this youngster does the same. Could something have happened at the marketplace?"
Outside Bai Tuo Peak, Jiang Yu Yan, following Zhouyang secretly on her master’s orders, witnessed this scene with a pair of beautiful eyes filled with deep suspicion.
She blinked her beautiful eyes, her expression shifted, and she decided to first go over and check it out.
If Chen Ping’an’s appearance was within Blood Mo Luo’s expectations, then when Jiang Yu Yan, with her Seventh-Layer of the Purple Mansion Cultivation, also arrived at Ping’an Marketplace and joined the siege against him, he truly felt danger.
It’s not that these people really had the capability to kill him. In fact, as long as he utilized the "Blood Escape Technique," even if those besieging him doubled, they would be hard-pressed to deal with him.
However, the "Blood Escape Technique" could only allow him to escape alone. If he were truly forced to use this secret technique, his mission at the marketplace would be deemed a failure—something he couldn’t afford to happen.
Thus, upon seeing Chen Ping’an and Jiang Yu Yan, the two Purple Mansion Cultivators, arriving one after another, Blood Mo Luo couldn’t help but finally reveal his trump card.
Suddenly retreating a distance, he shouted loudly: "Mo Ke, my condition for you is accepted!"
As his voice fell, a cheerful laughter echoed from outside the marketplace: "Hahaha, don’t worry, senior brother. Your junior is here!"
Amidst the laughter, a middle-aged man wearing a blood-red magic robe descended outside the marketplace, riding a blood-light. The aura he emitted was at the Seventh-Layer of Purple Mansion Cultivation.
This man was Blood Mo Ke, the only other Purple Mansion Stage Cultivator remaining in the Blood Fiend Demon Sect apart from Blood Mo Luo.
Originally, this person, like Blood Mo Luo, suffered severe injuries in the battle at the Demon Cave, and it would take decades to recover under normal circumstances.
However, after Blood Netherworld emerged, to have manpower available, he specially bestowed a Healing Secret Elixir upon the two for their recovery. Coupled with "resources" accumulated by destroying families and clans over the years, the injuries of both were mostly healed.
This time, as Blood Mo Luo intended to raid Ping’an Marketplace for his daughter, he specially contacted Blood Mo Ke to ensure no mistakes and have him escort.
Of course, with the self-serving nature of demonic cultivators, even among fellow disciples, Blood Mo Ke wouldn’t help without compensation. The two had pre-agreed that if Blood Mo Luo required his intervention, he would have to promise compensation for his assistance.
Therefore, upon seeing Blood Mo Ke’s appearance, Blood Mo Luo showed little joy, speaking testily via sound transmission: "Enough chatter. Help me hold off these guys for a while; once I’ve left, you can use the Blood Escape Technique to leave!"
With his Ninth-Layer Purple Mansion Cultivation, if he could leave first, among the Chen Family Ancestor’s group, only Zhang Yunpeng might be able to catch up to him.
Yet, facing Blood Mo Luo wielding a Tier Five Spiritual Artifact, it’s uncertain whether Zhang Yunpeng alone would dare pursue.
However, Blood Mo Luo’s plans did not go smoothly!
Upon seeing Blood Mo Ke appear, Zhang Yunpeng and Jiang Yu Yan, the two Purple Mansion Stage Cultivators from the Yellow Sand Sect, exchanged a look and saw decisive resolve in each other’s eyes.
The invasion of the Boundless Desert Sea Cultivation Realm by Blood Slaughter Demon Sect has left only Blood Mo Luo and Blood Mo Ke. If these two could be killed today, the demon chaos in the Boundless Desert Sea Cultivation Realm would be completely quelled.
Missing this opportunity, if these two Purple Mansion Stage Demon Cultivators escape, finding and killing them in the future would require unknown amounts of effort and resources.
Thus, without any discussion, after just exchanging a glance, the two Purple Mansion cultivators from Yellow Sand Sect simultaneously took out their trump cards hidden in reserve.
Ever since Blood Mo Luo and Blood Mo Ke slaughtered Liu Family of Chixia Mountain, to combat these troublesome Purple Mansion Stage Demon Cultivators, Cao Wenjin opened the Sect Treasure Vault to distribute several treasures that could be used as trump cards to each Purple Mansion Stage Cultivator within the sect for free.
Now, Zhang Yunpeng and Jiang Yuyan used the treasures in their hands.
As Zhang Yunpeng reached out and tapped his storage bag, he took out a "Beast Soul Talisman" depicting a black wolf’s head, and immediately activated the spirit talisman, releasing a demon wolf soul beast with the combat power of a Tier Four Lower Grade demon beast.
On the other side, Jiang Yuyan, due to the favor of Cao Wenjin, not only activated a "Beast Soul Talisman" to release a demon python soul beast with Tier Four Middle-Grade demon beast power but also took out a Tier Four Middle-Grade Puppet Beast.
Whether it was the soul beast released by the "Beast Soul Talisman" or Jiang Yuyan’s Tier Four Puppet Beast, they were all lifeless things without fear of death. With these three fearless things attacking frantically in the front line, and four Purple Mansion Cultivators assisting from the side, Blood Mo Luo and Blood Mo Ke were immediately under great pressure, finding it difficult to escape.
"Senior Brother, what are you waiting for? Quickly release the blood corpse bestowed by the Master!"
Blood Mo Ke did not possess the powerful cultivation of Blood Nether nor had a Tier Five Spiritual Artifact at hand. At this moment, facing multiple cultivators of the same tier simultaneously, he instantly felt overwhelmed, quickly transmitting a message to Blood Mo Luo for assistance.
Back then, when Blood Nether had them come out to attack each Cultivation Clan, to enhance efficiency, he deliberately gave Blood Mo Luo a Tier Four Top-Grade Blood Corpse he had refined.
This Tier Four Top-Grade Blood Corpse was refined by Blood Nether using the corpse of a Golden Core Stage Cultivator, its power not inferior to a Ninth-Layer Purple Mansion Cultivator, being a much sought-after demon dao treasure.
When attacking Chixia Mountain’s Liu Family, it was with the help of this Tier Four Top-Grade Blood Corpse that the two were able to quickly break through the Mountain Protection Array guarded by seven Foundation Establishment Cultivators and hundreds of Qi Cultivation Cultivators.
Thus, seeing the situation turning unfavorable now, Blood Mo Ke wanted Blood Mo Luo to release the blood corpse to break the siege.
Upon hearing Blood Mo Ke’s words, Blood Mo Luo’s expression immediately changed, with a hint of hesitation flashing in his eyes.
Blood Mo Ke’s words sounded easy, but the blood corpse was only temporarily lent by Blood Nether and had not recognized Blood Mo Luo as its master. Each time it was released, he had to feed it a large amount of essence blood to drive it and had to be constantly wary of backlash.
But now, it seemed he had no choice but to use the blood corpse. His and Blood Mo Ke’s trump cards had already been used up in the previous battles, leaving only the blood corpse bestowed by Blood Nether as a powerful trump card.
Therefore, after a slight hesitation, he gritted his teeth, reached out, tapped the corpse storage bag at his waist, and released a crystal blood coffin.
Bang!
As soon as the crystal blood coffin appeared, the coffin lid exploded loudly and flew away, from which jumped a male blood corpse covered in thick corpse hair.
Once the blood corpse appeared, it looked at Blood Mo Luo with ferocious light in its eyes, filled with bloodthirsty madness.
Seeing this, Blood Mo Luo’s expression changed, and he immediately sprayed a mass of essence blood upon the blood corpse, then activated the corpse control token given by Blood Nether to issue an attack command to the blood corpse.
Roar—
After absorbing the essence blood from Blood Nether, a Ninth-Layer Purple Mansion Cultivator, the corpse evil qi on the blood corpse suddenly surged, and with a flickering silhouette, it instantly disappeared from its original place, appearing behind the demon wolf soul beast.
Although the demon wolf soul beast lacked its previous consciousness, it retained the combat instinct of a demon beast. As soon as the blood corpse appeared behind it, it was immediately detected, and it turned to bite fiercely.
The soul beast formed by the "Beast Soul Talisman" existed between virtual and real, purely composed of magical power and beast soul power, its body strength naturally unable to compare with that of a real demon beast.
When the demon wolf soul beast bit on the blood corpse’s shoulder, not only did it fail to cause any harm, but it was also seized by the blood corpse, which tightly gripped the wolf’s head and twisted it, instantly breaking the neck.
If it were a flesh-and-blood demon beast, having the head twisted off would certainly be fatal, but the demon wolf soul beast’s body was entirely composed of magical power and beast soul power. Losing the head merely reduced a portion of the beast soul power, and soon a new head re-formed, then spat out a black demonic wind towards the blood corpse.
As the demonic wind fell on the blood corpse, it immediately acted like a steel knife scraping bone, removing a large patch of thick corpse hair, but it was unable to cause any damage to the blood corpse’s body.
Upon discovering that the enemy’s head could regrow, the blood corpse immediately changed its attack strategy. Its sharply clawed hands fiercely pierced onto the demon wolf soul beast’s head, directly penetrating into the demon wolf soul beast’s body, and a black-red corps flame, emitting a pungent corpse odor, enveloped the entire demon wolf soul beast.
Burned by the black-red corpse flame, the demon wolf soul beast, although silent due to lacking pain sensation, rapidly shrank, soon dissipating entirely due to excessive beast soul power consumption.
Having resolved the demon wolf soul beast, the blood corpse quickly charged towards the other demon python soul beast, and this time, utilizing its experience, it immediately used the black-red corpse flame to attack.
From this we can see that although fighting machines made by special means, demonic corpse refinement may not be as versatile as the puppets and soul beasts of the immortal dao in terms of techniques, but in terms of spiritual wisdom, it surpasses them greatly.
With the assistance of this Tier Four Top-Grade Blood Corpse, the pressure on Blood Mo Luo and Blood Mo Ke lightened significantly. Seeing the blood corpse’s tremendous power in consecutively eliminating two Tier Four soul beasts, they even temporarily suppressed the thought of retreat, rallying their spirits to launch a counterattack following the blood corpse’s lead.
