Chapter 461: Chapter 459 Blood Slaughter in the Forbidden Area_1
He put away half a bottle of Emperor’s Flow, and returned to his Cloud House.
A moment later, there was a slight commotion outside the house. When Lu Xuan opened the door, the Little White Ape was standing at the entrance, its eyes shining like red jewels.
In its hand, it held a white jade small bottle, which was full of Emperor’s Flow.
Upon seeing Lu Xuan, the Little White Ape immediately handed the bottle to him.
“Is this for me?” Lu Xuan asked in surprise.
The Little White Ape nodded and gestured continuously with its hands.
Due to its small size, Lu Xuan could directly see a few strands of silver white silky hair on the back of its head.
Through the thoughts conveyed by it, he learned that this bottle of Emperor’s Flow was collected by the Elder Ape and given to Lu Xuan as a preliminary reward for helping to cultivate the Heart Ape Fruit.
“A gift from an elder, I dare not refuse, then I won’t stand on ceremony.”
Lu Xuan was delighted in his heart, accepted the bottle of Emperor’s Flow, took out some Spirit Fruits from his storage bag as snacks for the Little White Ape.
Earlier, while he was gathering Emperor’s Flow, he had witnessed numerous Spirit Beasts use various techniques to intercept the Emperor’s Flow based on their bloodline talents. The anomalistic phenomena caused by the White Ape and the Dragon Turtle were especially significant. Even from his vantage point in the clouds, he could see everything clearly.
A hundred-foot-tall likeness of a White Ape appeared in the air and assumed the posture of swallowing the moon. Numerous streams of Emperor’s Flow surged into the likeness.
Meanwhile, another beast transformed into a huge divination diagram. The spiritual patterns on the diagram circulated and absorbed all the Emperor’s Flow falling within tens of miles around into the diagram.
To his surprise, Elder Ape had even thoughtfully saved a bottle for him.
After the Little White Ape left, Lu Xuan, feeling bored yet still thinking of the countless Demon Beast Materials in the forbidden area, went to the lake.
“Kid Lu, you’re here? How much Emperor’s Flow did you get from that last wave?”
The Old Dragon Turtle lay comfortably on a huge flat rock, next to which were dozens of old, mottled black-green turtle shells basking in the sun.
“I had decent luck and gathered half a bottle of Emperor’s Flow. It can be used to feed the Spirit Beasts that the sect rears.” Lu Xuan answered truthfully.
“Only half a bottle, what can you do with that? Here, this bottle is for your body refinement.” The Old Dragon Turtle scoffed, and a bottle of Emperor’s Flow floated in front of Lu Xuan.
“Hehe, thank you, Senior!”
Lu Xuan didn’t expect to have such a pleasant surprise and quickly expressed his gratitude.
As for the Old Dragon Turtle’s slight ridicule in his words, he didn’t mind it at all. Now he had a bottle of Emperor’s Flow, even a few hours of mockery wouldn’t be a problem.
“By the way, senior, I want to go into the forbidden area today. I’m worried about the Ferocious Beasts and Evil Beasts causing some trouble. Please, could you divine some predictions for me?”
After he put away the Emperor’s Flow, he asked the Old Dragon Turtle.
“Alright.”
The Old Dragon Turtle simply replied while the spiritual patterns on the dozens of turtle shells beside him were constantly moving. Lu Xuan felt the indistinct sense of an energy locking onto him. A few moments later, the energy vanished, and a divination symbol appeared on the turtle shell.
“Rest assured, there’s no danger, and you might even stumble upon some opportunities.”
The Old Dragon Turtle blew lightly on its long whiskers and gestured at Lu Xuan with its short forelimbs.
“I don’t understand how you, a kid, cultivated up to the Foundation Establishment Mid-term, with such caution.”
“I can’t help being cautious! I still want to outlive you, old guy!”
Lu Xuan lightly laughed, and bid farewell to the old dragon turtle. Half a moment later, he arrived at the edge of the forbidden area.
His spiritual sense seeped into the Beast Owning Order in his hand, causing a layer of faint red light to appear on its surface. The formation restriction outside the forbidden area encountered the red light, automatically creating a passage that could allow one person to pass through.
He descended slowly toward the pit.
This time, without the old dragon turtle by his side, Lu Xuan had to be even more careful and cautious.
Fortunately, all the ferocious beasts and evil beasts in the forbidden area were locked away by the formations and magic artifacts. The only threat to him inside was the fifth-grade fox spirit. With the Beast Owning Order, the power to kill was in Lu Xuan’s hands.
In addition, for safety’s sake, he had the old dragon turtle draw a divination for him. With various hidden artifacts and measures on his body, even if he faced several Foundation Establishment Perfect cultivators or equally potent ferocious beasts, Lu Xuan was confident he could handle them with ease.
He had only taken a rough look the last time he came, but this time, Lu Xuan explored more carefully.
He noticed four narrow passageways leading from the stone caves on all four sides, each one filled with a strong bloody aura.
Focusing his hearing, Lu Xuan could faintly hear the low growls of beasts emanating from inside.
The Qing Fu Lu Ling Light emerged from his shoes, a surge of spiritual power propelling him to the entrance of the passage.
The ground of the passageway was soft and dark red, and he could feel a faint stickiness underfoot — who knew how much demon beast essence blood had been absorbed into it.
Lu Xuan slowly moved deeper into the passageway. On either side were stone caves, housing a variety of demon beasts. Most were second-grade, but there were also quite a few at the third-grade Foundation Establishment level.
Upon seeing Lu Xuan, the demon beasts bared their teeth and snarled at him. However, under the force of the formation outside their caves, all they could do was put on a show.
After about two miles, Lu Xuan entered a huge stone hall.
The instant he entered the hall, his pupils constricted slightly. There was actually a cultivator in the center of the hall.
With his current spiritual sense, he hadn’t sensed the presence of this cultivator when he was scouting.
The cultivator was shirtless, bald, and muscular. His body permeated with blood energy, and he had surely killed countless souls.
An obscure red chain passed through his hipbones, its runes shimmering.
In his hand, he held a massive demon head blade about ten feet long. On the handle of the blade, the demon head was biting into a piece of demon beast meat.
At the monk’s feet laid a giant wolf-shaped monster. The mouth of the demon head blade was pointed at the head of the wolf beast, which dropped with the slightest release of pressure.
The head rolled away immediately, leaving behind a sleek cut on the carcass of the demon beast, its essence blood seemingly not having had time to respond.
Having slain the wolf beast, the bald cultivator’s hands darted about, processing the various parts of the beast’s body.
Useful parts were piled together, while other less useful organs, intestines, and flesh were set aside.
“You seem somewhat unfamiliar. How should I address you? And why do you have Elder Uncle Cang Wu’s Beast Owning Order in your possession?”
Upon seeing Lu Xuan, the bald monk inquired while continuing to handle the carcass of the demon beast.
“My name is Lu Xuan, an Inner Sect Disciple of the Sky Sword Sect. I’m here on behalf of my sect’s Golden Pellet Elder Uncle, looking after the Ten Thousand Beast Cave Blessed Land. May I ask who you are?”
Lu Xuan keenly noticed that the bald cultivator referred to the True Man Cang Wu as Elder Uncle, which indicated that he, too, was a cultivator from the Sky Sword Sect.
He extended his spiritual sense to gauge the monk’s strength and, through the thick, substantial stench of blood, he could vaguely sense that the bald cultivator had reached the Foundation Establishment Perfect realm.
“I can’t even remember who I am anymore. Now, I’m just a Blood Slaughter left in the forbidden area. You can simply call me Blood Senior Brother.”
Having stored the processed demon beast meat into his storage bag, with the rest of the useless material piled up, the bald monk turned to address Lu Xuan.
As he moved, the obsidian chain piercing his scapulae jingled, making a faint sound.
“I’m nothing more than a sinner in the sect, left here in the forbidden area to slowly atone for my sins.”
