Chapter 954: Chapter 482: Polluted Blood (Part 2)

That being said, the matter depends on human effort.

Zhang Yunliang did not give up; he contacted some loose cultivator friends and secretly investigated which loose cultivators had joined the Polluted Blood Sect, compiling a list.

As one might imagine, the value of this list is immeasurable.

Soon, the White Light Palace Master and Fang Zhixing, along with others, saw the list.

What a shock it was!

Damn it, quite a few loose cultivators had joined the Polluted Blood Sect, amounting to tens of thousands!

“Arrest them for me!”

The White Light Palace Master’s face was like water; the Polluted Blood Sect had grown and flourished right under his nose, yet he was completely unaware. It was simply outrageous.

With a single order, everyone was dispatched en masse.

Fang Zhixing teamed up with Old Eleven Xiong Liangshi and Old Seventeen Taishi Chengyao to head to Blue Moon Star to make arrests.

“This Blue Moon Star is resource-poor, and no major force was willing to take control, so it was later occupied by some loose cultivators.”

Xiong Liangshi had done a lot of preliminary investigation and explained slowly.

“Initially, the loose cultivators clung together tightly, forming a Loose Immortal Alliance with tens of thousands of members.

However, they quickly split into three factions due to conflicts of interest: Tiger Shadow Hall, Red Fang, and the New Loose Immortal Alliance.

Tiger Shadow Hall consisted of the top-tier loose cultivators. The membership threshold required cultivation to reach the Nirvana Realm; they did not accept the weak. The rules were strict, with a hierarchical system, and the distribution of benefits was according to level, meaning the stronger you were, the more you got.

Red Fang’s members were all female loose cultivators. They were considered a weak group in the cultivation world and had their own survival rules.

As for the New Loose Immortal Alliance, they insisted on having no admission thresholds, allowing anyone to join, so they had the most members.

Moreover, they explicitly required that the distribution of benefits must be linked to contributions, meaning the more a person contributed, the more benefits they received.”

Taishi Chengyao nodded and responded, “The information shows that many loose cultivators on Blue Moon Star have joined the Polluted Blood Sect. The specific number is unknown, and they are scattered across the three factions, so rounding them all up might not be easy.”

Xiong Liangshi laughed heartily and said, “This matter can be difficult but also simple.

Although loose cultivators are not united, they still have safety needs.

For this reason, they have crowdfunded and built an Immortal City, fully equipped with a protective array and other facilities.

So, as long as we seize control of the protective array, we can lock down the entire Immortal City, preventing anyone from leaving the city.

Furthermore, I have long reached the See All Living Beings Realm and only need to cast a calamity over the entire Blue Moon Star, prohibiting their departure, ensuring none can escape.”

Taishi Chengyao understood that all the members of the three loose cultivator factions were concentrated in one Immortal City.

It made sense, too; the cost of building an Immortal City was astronomical, and the maintenance costs were extremely high. A group of loose cultivators simply couldn’t afford two Immortal Cities.

“No wonder Eleven Brother is so strategic.”

Taishi Chengyao gave a thumbs up, repeatedly praising him.

The group chatted idly, and before they knew it, they had arrived at Blue Moon Star.

Without a word, Xiong Liangshi immediately acted, casting a calamity that covered the entire globe.

“No one is allowed to leave Blue Moon Star for three days.”

This move consumed a lot of energy, causing Xiong Liangshi to gasp for breath.

However, he was very excited and spiritedly said, “Let’s go, we shall take over the Loose Practitioner Immortal City.”

The group rapidly descended, piercing through the clouds, diving downwards, surveying the whole land.

In the distance, a medium-sized Immortal City stood majestically on a plateau, surrounded by mountains and rivers, gathering wind and energy.

Loose Practitioner Immortal City was faintly visible, not completely hidden. The protective shield flickered occasionally, giving an impression of unstable immortal power.

Seeing this, Xiong Liangshi couldn’t help but scornfully say, “Humph, a bunch of paupers can’t even maintain the normal operation of the protective array.”

Taishi Chengyao retorted speechlessly, “This trash array, even if maxed out, might not keep everyone trapped inside the city.”

Fang Zhixing was silent for a moment and replied, “No matter, I’ll also cast a calamity, strictly prohibiting anyone from leaving the city.”

As he spoke, Fang Zhixing pressed his hand down.

An enormous calamity surged like a tidal wave, engulfing the entire city, as if the sea were overturning, flooding the golden mountain, creating an exceptionally shocking scene.

“So powerful!”

Xiong Liangshi’s breath hitched, and he couldn’t help but get goosebumps all over.

If Xiong Liangshi’s calamity was like a stone thrown into a lake, causing ripples,

then Fang Zhixing’s calamity over the Loose Practitioner Immortal City was like a great flood overwhelming the Dragon King’s Temple, unstoppable.

Although Fang Zhixing only displayed techniques from the See All Living Beings Realm, the lack of comparison caused Xiong Liangshi to be greatly shaken, feeling inferior and sensing the vast difference.

Xiong Liangshi raised his thumb, awkwardly smiling: “Uncle’s moves are indeed extraordinary!”

Fang Zhixing faintly smiled, his gaze shifting towards the city.

At this moment, chaos erupted in the Loose Practitioner Immortal City.

Cultivators below the Fate Realm couldn’t sense the aura of fate, continuing as they were, unaware of any anomaly.

But it was different for the immortals in the Fate Realm; they could clearly sense two terrifying calamities descending one after another, crashing down on them like a head-on collision.

They were terrified, feeling as if their necks were being squeezed, only to be thrown into a pot of oil.

All the immortals were extremely uncomfortable, each as if seriously wounded, their hair standing on end!

“The overall situation is set; there is no need to control the protective array anymore.”

Xiong Liangshi steadied himself, took a deep breath, descended above the city, and proclaimed: “Everyone in the city, listen up. We are from the White Light Immortal Palace, and today, by order of the Palace Master, we are here to capture the Polluted Blood Sect disciples.”

The voice at the peak of Lower Immortal boomed like a hurricane, sweeping across every corner of the city, echoing in everyone’s ears.

“What? Polluted Blood Sect?”

“What’s the Polluted Blood Sect, a cult?”

“I’ve never heard of it.”

“Ha, what are you afraid of? They are here for the Polluted Blood Sect, it has nothing to do with us.”

…

The majority of people in the city were bewildered, having no clue what the Polluted Blood Sect was.

But some people’s expressions changed drastically, trembling uncontrollably.

Xiong Liangshi paused for a moment and continued: “Listen up, Polluted Blood Sect disciples. We know you’ve drunk the Holy Blood, but you surely do not know what it is.”

He snorted and revealed the truth: “The Holy Blood is a harmful and deceitful thing. The Polluted Blood Sect raises you as consumables, and when the time is right, they will kill you to extract the blood from your bodies to refine Polluted Blood!”

“What? Such a thing?”

“Is it true? The Polluted Blood Sect raised me just to harvest me?”

“Hmm, I always had some doubts, but didn’t expect…”

It must be said, Xiong Liangshi’s words were incredibly damaging, causing many Polluted Blood Sect disciples to waver.

Suddenly!

A coarse voice echoed in their ears: “Anyone who dares to betray the Polluted Blood Sect will have the Holy Blood within them activate immediately, causing instant death!”

A crowd of Polluted Blood Sect disciples instantly turned pale, both shocked and furious.

“Don’t overthink it, you’ve already been polluted by the Holy Blood; leaving you alive is a constant threat. Even if you surrender, the White Light Immortal Palace will still execute you.”

“Hmph, you’ve no other choice. Once aboard the Polluted Blood Sect’s ship, no one can get off!”

“However, should you follow the Polluted Blood Sect to the end, you might obtain an antidote, break the Holy Blood’s effect, and win freedom.”

The highly persuasive words echoed throughout the city.

The crowd was utterly stunned because this voice sounded extremely familiar.

“Could it be that the Hall Master of Tiger Shadow Hall, ‘Hu Hongye,’ is also one of the Polluted Blood Sect?”

In an instant, countless gazes turned towards the direction of Tiger Shadow Hall, paying close attention.

Soon, a burly middle-aged man stepped out, with a big beard, leopard-like eyes, and wearing a black robe, exuding a fierce aura.

Hu Hongye lifted his head to look at the clouds, speaking in a deep voice: “Polluted Blood Sect disciples, listen up. The Holy Blood within you is extremely powerful, with endless marvelous uses. Just smear some on your body, and you can dispel the calamities brought down by those below the See All Living Beings Realm Lower Immortal!”

As he spoke, he demonstrated by slitting his wrist, applying some to his face.

Sizzle sizzle~

The two calamities covering him emitted black smoke, dissipating with the wind.

Upon witnessing this scene!

The other Polluted Blood Sect disciples couldn’t help but be invigorated, following suit.

Sure enough!

The Holy Blood they had nurtured was incredibly peculiar, truly able to dispel calamities.

Moreover, the stronger your cultivation, the more concentrated the Holy Blood, and the faster you can dispel the calamities.
