I’m Really Not A Supreme Master!

Chapter 235: Birth of Blood Shadow_1

Chapter 235: Birth of Blood Shadow_1

Heavenly Realm.

In a small village within the Cangli Mountain Range.

Ziling Nanfeng and the others had already returned, and their faces were filled with joy.

This battle had greatly enhanced their abilities.

Especially Nan Feng, who had become Immortal in a single fight.

When Nan Feng entered the courtyard, her aura underwent another transformation, becoming even more ethereal and sacred!

“Is the Dao rhyme and principles in this courtyard perfecting Sister Nanfeng’s Dao?”

Zi Ling exclaimed in surprise.

“To attain the Dao in the outside world seems imperfect, but only in Master’s courtyard can one find the perfect Dao!”

Seeing this, Gong Ya felt a wave of emotion. When she first arrived here, Nan Feng and the others weren’t even Golden Immortals yet.

But now, the weakest among them had reached the Realm of Daluo Golden Immortals.

“Demon Monarch, you’re also Immortal, so why does the Dao Fruit you’ve attained in this life, along with Lady Nanfeng and Ziling Maiden, feel so powerful to me? Far surpassing those Immortals of the Immortal Domain, almost like Divine Spirits…”

Gong Ya turned to Xinning with her question.

“The Dao here… is perfect…”

There was a complicated look in Xinning’s big eyes as she said,

“Senior Li might be involved with some of the ultimate secrets of this world…”

At these words, Gong Ya was also taken aback.

“How was it? Did you enjoy this group fight?”

Li Fan smiled as he saw them return.

All young people, they were too fond of playing.

Fortunately, none of them were injured.

“Reporting to Master, it was extremely fun!”

Lu Rang said excitedly, “Any future fights, I’ll take care of them all!”

He couldn’t wait for more such battles to help his grass grow faster.

Nan Feng stepped forward to pay her respects and said,

“Master, your disciple encountered two powerful zither players and gained great enlightenment from them!”

She was still visibly excited.

Immortal!

In times past, it was a Realm she didn’t even dare to dream of.

But now, she had already crossed over.

Li Fan was surprised upon hearing this. Weren’t they supposed to be fighting a gang war? And they encountered zither players?

But then he realized, it seemed the fight hadn’t happened!

After all, Fire Spirit and her companions were in the business of painting and calligraphy. Those who came to rob them of their business were most likely fellow artists.

A group of people who dabbled in painting and calligraphy all day were probably refined individuals, and it was possible that they had merely conducted negotiations and held competitions like art contests.

And the disciples he had sent out happened to include those skilled in painting and calligraphy.

Realizing this, he couldn’t help but smile slightly, looking at Zi Ling, he said,

“It seems your Art of Painting is quite impressive, even when considering the entire outside world.”

Since Dugu Yuqing’s calligraphy was still at a basic level and probably couldn’t dominate the crowd, it must have been Zi Ling’s paintings that made those who came to snatch their business retreat.

After all, he was quite appreciative of Zi Ling’s talent and current Realm.

Upon hearing this, Zi Ling was startled: Master indeed left nothing to chance!

The others grew even more admiring, Master always acted casually and seemed to care about nothing, yet everything was in his palm!

Although they had been in the courtyard, they had a grasp on the war in the outside world as if it was in the palm of their hand, even details such as Senior Sister Zi Ling subduing more than a dozen Immortal Monarchs with her own hands were clear to their Master.

“Thank you for your recognition, Master!”

Zi Ling smiled immediately.

…

Meanwhile.

In the heart of the Cangli Mountain Range reaching tens of thousands of feet below.

Boiling magma churned.

“Boom, boom, boom!”

Like the powerful beating of a heart.

A heart resembling molten lava was pulsating.

Lots of fresh blood had seeped into this place.

In this period, the blood of strong beings like Profound Immortals, Heavenly Immortals, Golden Immortals, and Taiyi Golden Immortals had drenched the lands of the Heavenly Realm.

Lately, even the blood of a dozen Immortal Generals had been spilled.

Apart from the Immortal Spirit Qi in the entire Heavenly Realm growing richer, this hidden heart might be the greatest beneficiary.

Near the magma, in the distance, a figure shrouded in Blood Shadow was intently watching the gigantic heart.

“The inheritances from the Immortal Dao Palace have already been passed down.”

“Your ashes have also found a support.”

“Do you plan to live on eternally within this magma?”

“Acknowledge me, and I will ascend to the Immortal Domain to avenge you and the common people of the First Heavenly Realm!”

The Blood Shadow spoke deeply.

Yet the heart continued to pulse, each beat producing vibrations that repelled it.

“You have only me, you can only choose me!”

With a roar, Blood Shadow fixed its gaze on that heart, saying,

“Since you refuse to follow me, then I will erode your consciousness!”

“I know you’re already operating on instinct alone!”

“Do you think the fresh blood flowing in from the outside world is truly just making you stronger?”

“Don’t forget, blood always carries the essence of slaughter and darkness, and I will destroy you!”

With that shout, Blood Shadow’s power, dark and bloody, spread throughout the surrounding magma!

Instantly,

Cold power rampaged through the space.

Even the churning magma started to slow down and began to solidify!

The temperature was too low.

Countless resentful screams arose, as if a massacre of commoners was taking place, filled with the unwillingness and hatred of billions of lives!

It was born from the blood and chaos of the First Heavenly Realm!

Soon.

The magma in the space solidified completely.

Leaving only cold ash behind.

And that heart was now enveloped by the dark power!

“Boom, boom, boom!”

The heart began to beat even more fiercely.

As if resisting the encroachment.

But at that moment, the Blood Shadow suddenly transformed into a boundless river of blood!

As if in the ancient world, the blood of countless creatures came together.

Within that river of blood, the voices of countless aggrieved spirits called out.

It was calling for slaughter.

It was calling for revenge.

It was calling for destruction!

That was the curse of the billions of beings in the First Heavenly Realm!

At that moment, that gigantic heart suddenly began to tremble.

A crack abruptly appeared!

—Blood Shadow was right, the heart had absorbed the immortal blood, but it also left behind the seeds of blood grudge within itself.

When such a call of kinship from billions of beings emerged, the remaining instincts of that heart could no longer resist the erosion of Blood Shadow.

“You are mine!”

“I am destined to rise in this life, I will rebuild the First Heavenly Realm, I will ascend to the Immortal Domain, and slay every Immortal King!”

In the surging Blood River, a hand formed of blood reached out fiercely towards that heart!

The trembling heart was directly grasped by Blood Shadow and pulled into the surging Blood River.

At this moment, the area instantaneously became chaotic!

It was as if the world was reenacting its formation.

It was as if life was being born.

It was as if something was about to emerge from the darkness.

Soon, the chaos dissipated.

The Blood River vanished, and in its place, there was a white fleshy substance!

The thing was pure white, resembling a white flesh mushroom, but it was marbled with countless bloodstains, like tangled blood vessels!

—If there were a learned person versed in the ancient and modern here, they would be incredibly shocked, for this substance could be called “Primal Chaos Flesh Mushroom”!

Primal Chaos Flesh Mushroom is a kind of Primordial Essence.

Legend has it that after the fall of Immortal Kings, they turn into substances belonging to the world.

This transformation is like the carcass of a dead animal decomposing and eventually giving rise to fruit trees, it is the most primal way of the world’s operation.

And if one could obtain a piece of Primordial Substance, just one bite is said to offer the chance to comprehend the secrets of Hongmeng!

The surface of this substance throbbed with blood!

The white substance was the reborn Primordial Essence of Chaos, and entwined upon it, like blood vessels, was Blood Shadow!

The heart from the Immortal King had just shattered, sufficing, and turned into a substance; it no longer belonged to anyone, but was a product of the world.

Blood Shadow became the master of this substance!

“Hahahaha….”

A sinister and peculiar laugh suddenly rang out.

On that white fleshy substance, a strange mouth opened!

“I, am the First Heavenly Realm, the Immortal King!”

“I have returned to the world, and the entire world, shall tremble beneath my feet!”

The words were nearly insane, “Only fresh blood can allow me to quickly and completely control this substance, only fear and destruction can enable me to swiftly attain enlightenment!”

The white fleshy substance suddenly surged upward, penetrating countless layers of earth, aiming to appear in the Heavenly Realm.

“Beings of the Heavenly Realm? I will grant you eternity!”

“Becoming my blood feast is eternity!”

…

Meanwhile, in the small mountain village.

Li Fan stretched lazily and walked out of his house, just as the sun was right.

The earliest riser was Lu Rang, who was already fetching water to irrigate the field in the early morning.

He was more and more like a farmer; even Auntie Wang from the village said he was good at farming and wanted to find him a wife.

But compared to women, Lu Rang preferred the grass.

On the other side, Wu Dade was bleary-eyed next to the doghouse.

He had recently been spending a lot of time with that little black dog.

During the day, he would specifically take the dog for walks, bringing the little black dog to places like the chicken coop and the pond. Li Fan thought it might be because the dog was walked too often and was too tired. Whenever they reached the chicken coop or the pond, the little black dog just couldn’t walk anymore and always preferred to lie down.

Come night, Lu Rang seemed to not dare to disturb the flocks of chickens and the pond, so the little black dog became very spirited and bit Wu Dade every day!

At first, Wu Dade wailed and howled, but later, his endurance seemed to grow stronger, and he simply started living with the dog.

This seriously shocked Li Fan.

The disciple he had taken in was really too tough.

He had never heard of anyone getting so close to their dog that they lived and ate together.

Moreover, sometimes, Wu Dade seemed to mutter to the little black dog.

This made Li Fan quite worried about his mental state.

Seeing Wu Dade looking somewhat haggard, Li Fan couldn’t bear it and said:

“My disciples, let’s go. Taking advantage of the nice sunlight today, let’s go out for an outing. I will take you all to have a barbecue in the wild!”

In his previous life, Li Fan had always been a young man who liked barbecuing. In this life, it had been a long, long time since he had last eaten it!

Upon hearing they were going out for a barbecue, a group of disciples all felt it was very novel!

“Master, what is barbecuing?”

Zi Ling’s big eyes were filled with curiosity.

“It seems like it’s something to do with a lot of fire…”

Nan Feng murmured.

“Could this be some kind of grand technique of fire? Does Master want to teach us the art of barbecuing?”

Dugu Yuqing was brimming with excitement!

Li Fan was taken aback and thought, right, none of his disciples had ever had barbecue before?

He immediately smiled and said:

“Barbecuing is a method of cooking. It uses fire to roast food, such as meat.”

Upon hearing this, a group of disciples were all delighted!

“Wow, that’s great!”

“Master is awesome!”

“It looks so fun!”

All the disciples were very much looking forward to it.

“Gong Ya, go to the kitchen and bring me the pack from the third cupboard.”

Li Fan said with a smile.

Gong Ya immediately went, and soon came back with a box.

“Master, what’s inside this?”

Jiang Li asked.

“The tools and condiments for barbecuing.”

Li Fan rubbed his hands together. He had been in this world for many years and, with the guidance of the system, had prepared a set of barbecuing tools and various condiments not found in this world.

Hearing this, many disciples had an epiphany.

“Right, let’s prepare the ingredients. Zi Xuan, go catch a couple of fish. I’ll make grilled fish for you!”

“Yu Qing, catch a chicken, a tender hen, so the roast chicken will taste good. Also, gather more eggs.”

“Lu Rang, get some potatoes and vegetables ready.”

Li Fan immediately gave out his instructions.

But hearing Li Fan’s words, the group of disciples was shocked and just stared at Li Fan dumbfounded.

It was as if they had heard something utterly unbelievable!
