Chapter 218 Evil Blood Palace
The time was five days ago.
Since Old Xuan had instructed White to look for someone, White had gone out. In less than half an hour, he returned and brought back two acquaintances: Liu Jiahao and Liu Jiawen. They had also been informed by a mysterious person, that Zhu Yu was in trouble.
After the two groups met, they briefly ran through the recent situation with each other, and then began to discuss the best way to go about saving Zhu Yu and Zheng Xuan.
The final conclusion they came to, was that forceful attack would not work, and the strategy of looking one way and rowing another as proposed by Huangfu Gang, was not reliable either. It would be better to take advantage of brother and sister Liu’s ident.i.ty as members of the Remote Antiquity family, so that it would be above board.
However, how to get there was another issue that mattered a lot.
After their discussion, Lyu Liang was chosen as the main force to rescue them. On one hand, he had the Shadow Domain Beast to protect him against the Bounded Domain, and on the other hand, he had the Dreamy Crystal Vessel to help him to escape.
However, the words of Old Xuan at this time, brought about a small change in their plan, “You have to worry about your life, this time. After that, he could actually go to sleep in the Virtual world.”
“Hey, the fourth brother’s method of prediction can only be used three times a year. So if it is not particularly important, he will not tell you.” White’s words attracted more attention.
Finally, they decided to let Liu Jiahao and Lyu Liang go. However, Lyu Liang would incarnate into Liu Jiawen, and Liu Jiahao’s real body would not go either. He would use a secret method to integrate a piece of his soul into a paper crane, so that it would look like him. And then the body that was infused into the paper crane, would go with Lyu Liang.
Originally, Liu Jiawen had insisted on going together with them, but Lyu Liang managed to persuade her to remain, and she did, although with great reluctance. He said, “I will leave the Dreamy Crystal Vessel here. You are the only one who can control this thing, besides me. Since Old Xuan said that there will be danger this time, it seems that chaos is expected in the Million Buddhist Sect. You should be waiting outside. If something happens, you can use this vessel to go in and meet us. As for myself, if I really encounter any danger, I can escape by myself.”
The whole plan was thus set.
But when the two arrived at the Million Buddhist Sect, the appearance of Donghuang Mufeng was indeed an unexpected piece of good news. If everything went well, they could rescue Zhu Yu without even having to put up a fight.
However, the words of Old Xuan was like a thorn that stabbed Lyu Liang’s heart. His instinct told him that all these crises were related to the arrival of Donghuang Mufeng!
Lyu Liang was familiar with the surname Donghuang. Publicly, they were salvation martyrs with supreme glory! In private, the Freedom Immortal Emperor, who was also called Donghuang Chongyang, had helped Lyu Liang to resume his cultivation!
Obviously, Donghuang Mufeng was the descendant of the Donghuang family. So Lyu Liang made up his mind that now that they met, he would not allow anyone to hurt Donghuang Mufeng!
Inside the Million Buddhist Sect, everything was normal. The only thing that Lyu Liang cared about was Uncle Fu.
With the help of Little Tian, Lyu Liang managed to perceive the real power of Uncle Fu, which startled him greatly!
Uncle Fu was actually a powerful figure of the Demon Clan, whose cultivation had reached the Transforming Realm. His cultivation was at least above the level of the Demon Master. It was not because Little Tian could not find more details, but because Uncle Fu had sensed that he was being perceived by Lyu Liang. His inadvertent glimpses at Lyu Liang forced him to stop his snooping.
After entering the scope of Tianfo Mountain, the situation inside the Million Buddhist Sect suddenly changed. Lyu Liang knew that the danger that Old Xuan spoke about, was approaching!
After entering Tianfo Mountain, Lyu Liang became extremely cautious. He united with Little Tian along the way, and observed the surroundings carefully.
There was no problem with Kong Ming, the monk. However, when they went further in, especially when Lyu Liang saw the disciples of the Million Buddhist Sect guarding the mountain, he was greatly stirred.
Others might see nothing special, and even Little Tian did not find anything unusual at first. But Lyu Liang could feel his blood was boiling. If he did not suppress it, probably the others would be able to feel it too!
After careful observation, Lyu Liang found that there was a blue blood spot hidden on different places of their bodies!
He could see the Blue-soul Blood, which was so rare!
Since Lyu Liang had once saved by Mu Xiaozi, he would never forget this kind of soul blood. Strictly speaking, there was also this kind of soul blood inside his body.
Those scenes during Time Reverse reappeared again in his mind, and he saw how Little Dan had used soul blood to control his clan members!
Obviously these disciples of the Million Buddhist Sect were being controlled by the Blue-soul Blood. However, the controller was clearly someone with a very high cultivation and operating ability.
If Lyu Liang did not have the same kind of soul blood, maybe they would not have taken it so seriously, as Little Tian found nothing exceptional at first glance. But now, when they thought of their previous negligence, they were extremely scared!
Now Lyu Liang lost his usual calmness too. The expression on his face changed unconsciously and finally Uncle Fu, who was always observing him, found something unusual in his face.
As for the black chain’s appearance, White had already reminded him during the first time, “There are sealing talisman characters intertwined with the Law of Heaven on the chain, and the first one who touches it, will be seriously hurt!”
Although Lyu Liang immediately shouted a reminder to the others, uncle Fu still touched it, because he had been so eager to save his young master.
………………………………
When Lyu Liang came to himself, he found he was in a dark cage, and there was a faint light around the cage. Obviously there was a Bounded Domain here. He did not know where Donghuang Mufeng and Uncle Fu had gone, but Lyu Liang could faintly discern that there were two forces of auras not far away. One of it was extremely weak and the other, though not hurt, had no fighting intention at all.
At the same time, in a b.l.o.o.d.y underground palace, several scarlet-robed people wearing masks surrounded Donghuang Mufeng and Uncle Fu. There were altogether five scarlet-robed men, and the lowest cultivation among them was at the Early-stage of the Tao Master, and the highest should be at the Late-stage of the Tao Master!
At this time, Uncle Fu had once again incarnated into a golden-winged hawk. Its cultivation was equal to the Late-stage of the Demon Master, and the golden soul spirit was emitted from the top of his head!
As for Donghuang Mufeng, although he had the cultivation at the Middle-stage of the Tao Master, now he was covered by a green shelter, and could do nothing.
“Oh, I never expected to find that one of the famous four demons of Pangu has fallen to the position of being a servant of the Human Clan! If you are sensible about the situation and stop resisting, I can let you go!” A man wearing a mask and whose costume was embroidered with strange patterns, sneered, “Your cultivation has been greatly reduced by the chain, so it is impossible for you to win!”
The hawk did not move, but instead increased its power of attack on the others.
“You don’t know how to appreciate favors! Initiate the formation!” With a low-pitched yell, a semi-circular, blood-colored sphere with a range of 30 meters appeared, and meanwhile the five scarlet-robed men groaned comfortably, their body crackling all over. Their cultivation would be raised to the Peak of the Tao Master period!
The hawk’s cultivation at this time, was reduced to the Early-stage of the Demon Master! During the change, the hawk could no longer withstand the attack from the five men and was pierced by numerous blood lights. It fell heavily to the ground, having no strength to fight at all!
“You Fu! You Fu!” Inside the light shelter, Donghuang Mufeng hit against the wall fiercely, tears raining down his cheeks.
“This green shelter does not seem to be that easy to break through. Let’s try using the blood soul sword” The five scarlet-robed men surrounded Donghuang Mufeng, as one of them said in a low voice.
“That’s the only way. Anyway, we have been told to keep him alive. As for whether he is injured or not, it does not matter! Come on… huh?” The leader of the five scarlet-robed men had not finished speaking, when a blare sounded behind them, and along with it, the blood light shelter was broken.
The five scarlet-robed men had hardly turned around, when suddenly three of them screamed in agony. Several black holes appeared on their bodies, emitting black gas. They were killed instantly!
The two men left were not much better off. Because the blood shelter disappeared, their cultivation fell back to their original level immediately. They had been so focused on Donghuang Mufeng, that they did not notice the attack from behind at all.
When they turned around, they saw Lyu Liang approaching with a gloomy look, and they could see that his power at the Middle-stage of the Tao Master.
“You… how did you break the blood cage! And the h.e.l.l Blood Formation! You, you…” Although the leader of the scarlet-robed men wore a mask, yet judging from his strange tone, Lyu Liang could still feel his incredulity.
Lyu Liang had no time to talk with these people. He used the Sword Essence of the Virtual-Spirit to kill the other two scarlet-robed men instantly, and in an overwhelming way!
“Let me out, please!” Donghuang Mufeng did not seem to care about being rescued, but begged Lyu Liang to let him out.
Lyu Liang sighed deeply and was about to say something, when the green light shelter protecting Donghuang Mufeng, disappeared automatically.
“You Fu!” After being released from the shelter, Donghuang Mufeng immediately rushed to the dying hawk.
At this moment, the hawk faintly opened its eyes. When it saw Donghuang Mufeng who was almost in a state of madness, he gasped, and with a smile, said, “It is my honor to serve you, young master! However, it seems I can’t serve you anymore. Young master, the world is full of danger, so after you return to the Sanctuary, don’t go out again. What’s more, the ‘Flying Dragon’ is strange, but before you get enough evidence and have sufficient ability, don’t act rashly and alert him… cough… ” The hawk began coughing out blood before it finished its words.
“You Fu! Don’t speak anymore! You can’t die, and you won’t die! Wait for me to save you!” Donghuang Mufeng suddenly got up. His eyes suddenly released a ray of golden light, and his blood became extremely turbulent. He was about to activate the cultivation at the Peak of the Tao Master!
But before he could do anything more, he suddenly yelled out in pain, and then the golden light disappeared. Meanwhile his cultivation was reduced to the Peak of the Almighty Immortal.
“Young Master, if you forcibly inspire the holy method in the mortal world, you will be injured by the law of heaven which you can’t bear, let alone save me. That’s why I infused a piece of soul blood into your body previously.” The voice of the hawk became weak, and then its eyes fluttered and looked at Lyu Liang who was already beside him, saying softly: “You have the soul blood of the eldest young missy, so you must have a deep relationship with the Donghuang family. I will die soon, so I beg you to protect our young master.”
Later, the hawk’s glory gradually dimmed, and its eyes closed slightly. It was already on the verge of death!
“You Fu!” Donghuang Mufeng yelled heartbreakingly. He rushed toward the hawk and burst into tears, while holding its head.
“Young master, I can’t accompany you anymore. In the future, you should take good care of yourself. Remember what I have said, and don’t come out of the Sanctuary again. This white-robed youth is Lyu Liang. He has your aunt’s soul blood, and knows how to use the Five Acts of Heaven Soul of the old master, so he must have a deep relationship with the Donghuang family. You can trust him!” The voice of the hawk was light, but revealed a strong affection toward its young master.
“You Fu! You Fu! Don’t leave me! I beg you, I should not have sneaked out to the Mortal World. I know I was wrong! Please don’t leave me! Hum…” Donghuang Mufeng held the head of the hawk tightly, crying in a heartbreaking way!
“Young master, let me serve you for the last time! “Childe Lyu, I will entrust my young master to you. “After saying that, the hawk blazed with a golden light all over, and then it changed into a golden curtain, which shrouded Donghuang Mufeng.
At the same time, a golden soul floated in front of Lyu Liang, inside which the voice of the hawk could be heard, “Originally I was the demon king, and my real body is a golden-winged hawk. I see you have the Cultivation Method of the Kun Peng Ancestor, so I will hand one piece of soul to you, which can help you to win!”
Lyu Liang did not refuse his offer. He directly united with the soul, and then bowed deeply to the air.
Donghuang Mufeng was too heartbroken, and could not stop crying. Lyu Liang’s brows were slightly furrowed, then he approached him, held his collar and slapped him twice!
Donghuang Mufeng finally stopped crying. He looked blankly at Lyu Liang, and before he could open his mouth, Lyu Liang shouted, “If you still want to be a crying fool, it is better for you to die here! Uncle Fu saved you even at the expense of his life! Don’t you want to know who is out to kill you? Don’t you want to avenge him? Open your eyes and see where we are! If your cries can make your enemy sympathize with you, then you can continue!”
Donghuang Mufeng looked at Lyu Liang blankly, then he wiped off his tears with his hand, and shouted, “I want to seek revenge!”
At this time, Lyu Liang let go of Donghuang Mufeng, and whispered softly: “I don’t know how strong your power is, but we are in a bad situation. If you remain outside, I can’t guarantee your safety. So in order to escape, and give you a chance to take revenge in the future, you should enter my cave residence now. We will wait until it is possible for us to escape from here!”
At this time, Donghuang Mufeng nodded his head obediently. He wiped away his tears again, and then followed Lyu Liang into his portable cave residence.
Lyu Liang breathed a sigh of relief, then suddenly looked at the front, and said in a deep voice, “It’s rare that you still have the mood to watch us. But if you are not busy, can you let us leave this d.a.m.n place?”
“Hehehe, You really deserve your fame! Even the young master of the Donghuang family who is accustomed to a leisurely life, has been stimulated by your words, good! Very good! It seems that I have to tell them that to keep your sect unknown can sometimes confuse your enemy. If they are as ignorant about your fame, they will suffer a lot!” Along with the laughter of a girl, a red delicate figure appeared.
This was an enchanting and charming girl, dressed in a yellow gauze palace dress. Her face was exquisite and beautiful. Even compared with Purple Phoenix Fairy, she still won, in terms of charm!
“Awesome Enchanting Method!” Lyu Liang was shocked. He was not quite clear about the cultivation of the girl, but at least she was at the level of Tao Master. What’s more, she knew the weird Enchanting Method!
Seeing that Lyu Liang was not moved, the girl’s eyes brightened and she smiled, “You really deserve your fame! I have remained in my territory all the time, so I only know part of your ability through those fighting images. Now when I see you in real life, I can feel that you are so amazing!”
Although the girl was smiling, and did not reveal any killing intent, the prediction of Old Xuan still made Lyu Liang alert, “This is a dangerous enemy!”
Seeing that Lyu Liang was still not moved, and at the same time, starting to move his aura, seemingly in preparation for fight, the girl first waved her head, sighed, and then gave him a charming, supercilious look. She then snapped her fingers.
All of a sudden, the environment around them changed!
The original dark, suppressing, and empty underground palace suddenly changed into a h.e.l.lish place, filled with corpses and blood!
Above a pool of blood, the delicate-looking girl bowed to Lyu Liang and giggled, “I am Feng Nishang, Welcome to the Evil Blood Palace!”
