Chapter 376: Chapter 208: Blood Immortal Scripture, The Secret of the Blood Demon Realm! (5k)_3
[A thought crossed your mind, and you threw the Spirit Explosion Technique into the midst of the Blood Demon Sect's sect grounds!]
[Boom! In an instant, a terrifying spiritual power explosion swept through most of the sect...]
[After a few breaths, the smoke slowly cleared, revealing thousands of low-level cultivators below, who had been blasted to death like ants by your hand.]
[Fear and roars of agony instantly filled the entire Blood Demon Sect.]
[But you, as calm as the breeze and light as the clouds, took out a bottle of Spiritual Liquid and, after taking a sip, you once again gathered a cyclone of energy and released the Spirit Explosion Technique towards the ground below.]
[Like this, you unleashed three Spirit Explosion Techniques in succession.]
[In less than a quarter of an hour's time, tens of thousands of the sect's cultivators were reduced to merely a few dozen survivors.]
[Thus, all cultivators below Divinity Transformation Stage were indiscriminately killed by the Spirit Explosion Technique.]
[Even those at the Divinity Transformation Stage were severely injured and their aura was weak.]
[After clearing the area, you controlled your spiritual power to slowly descend into the Blood Demon Sect's grand hall, where you saw the few dozen cultivators gathered together in defense.]
[Apart from two cultivators at the Return to Void Realm who merited a second glance, those at the Divinity Transformation Stage were no match for you at all.]
[You slowly made your way into the grand hall, and with a casual sword strike, you killed one of the Divinity Transformation Stage cultivators.]
[Then your Divine Sense swept over the corpse, and just as you had thought before, the body quickly decayed and soon a Gu Insect crawled out slowly from the cadaver.]
[You channeled your spiritual power to capture the Gu Insect, which immediately bared its teeth at you.]
[You frowned slightly, it wasn't just the cultivator you had killed before or the body you just slew, all the cultivators in the sect, from Foundation Establishment Stage to Nascent Soul Stage, turned into corpses after death.]
[You lifted your head to look at the cultivators in front of you, and they trembled with shock.]
[Your Divine Sense passed over the only two Return to Void cultivators.]
[Sure enough, both of these Return to Void cultivators looked like their lifespan had been damaged, their aura fragile.]
[One of the tall Return to Void cultivators fared somewhat better, but the other was shrouded in dark qi, with likely no more than fifty years left...]
In the real world, Su Xing looked at the text before him and frowned slightly, murmuring:
"So, even the Return to Void cultivators have little time left in their lifespan?"
"Normally, a Return to Void cultivator could easily live for two to three thousand years... But the cultivators of this realm probably have lifespans of only four to five hundred years, right?"
"Is it because of the Blood Immortal Scripture?"
Su Xing took a deep breath, then chanted silently:
"Activate the immersive simulation feature for 24 hours!"
[Ding, you have successfully used the immersive simulation feature, costing 2.4 million energy points, remaining 1.04793 billion.]
As the simulator's notification sounded, Su Xing's vision blurred momentarily.
The next second, Su Xing found himself in an unfamiliar environment.
First was the thick scent of blood, along with an uncomfortable sticky presence in the air.
Su Xing frowned slightly and scanned the area in front of him.
He saw dozens of cultivators a few dozen meters away from him, each with different expressions, armed with weapons and magical treasures, ready for battle.
In each cultivator's eyes, there was a deep fear.
Su Xing glanced at the cultivator who had turned into a rotting corpse not far away, then his Divine Sense swept over the few dozen living cultivators and murmured:
"Just as described in the simulation text... their lifespans are damaged, hardly befitting of a cultivator!"
Su Xing shook his head slightly.
The path of cultivation practiced by the cultivators of this realm had deviated from the essence of the cultivator's path and had turned towards some extreme.
What is the path of cultivation?
Although Su Xing had been in the Cultivation World for less than two years, having experienced the five challenges of Divinity Transformation, his mindset and pursuit of the cultivation path were fairly steadfast.
In Su Xing's view, there's only one ultimate goal for any cultivator, and that is immortality!
Immortals live as long as the heavens and the earth, shine alongside the sun and the moon.
Further down, some cultivators may seek to right wrongs with a swift hand, others desire freedom and leisure... Or perhaps ambitious cultivators aim to wield the power of the world, to find joy in the lap of beauty.
But regardless, they can never stray from the ultimate goal of cultivation, immortality!
Yet the cultivators of this realm, even upon reaching the Return to Void Realm, possess lifespans that don't even compare to ordinary Golden Core and Nascent Soul cultivators.
Such practice truly runs counter to the essence of cultivation.
"Quick-fix methods are indeed undesirable..."
Su Xing shook his head, the only benefit being that the Blood Immortal Scripture is not choosy about its practitioners.
As Su Xing contemplated, the few dozen cultivators in front of him spoke up with trembling voices:
"Senior, what grudge or grievance do you have with us to warrant annihilating our Blood Demon Sect?"
"Yeah... Senior, you've already killed those low-level cultivators... but for us above the Divinity Transformation Stage, cultivation isn't easy!"
Su Xing looked on coldly at the pleading cultivators, remaining silent.
Seeing that Su Xing was unresponsive, these cultivators started to threaten:
"Senior, although you are powerful... our Blood Demon Sect is not to be trifled with!"
"This time, you've penetrated our Blood Demon Sect, but that's because our Blood Dragon Ancestor was not at home!"
"Now that you've broken through the formation, the Blood Dragon Ancestor will surely return soon. If you leave now we can act as if nothing happened... but by the time you want to run, it'll be too late!"
After hearing the words of these two Return to Void cultivators, Su Xing's interest was piqued, and he countered:
"Oh? I killed tens of thousands of cultivators from your Blood Demon Sect, and you can act as if nothing happened?"
"Do you think I'm stupid?"
The two Return to Void cultivators looked at each other.
One slightly more robust cultivator stepped forward and said to Su Xing:
"Senior, not to deceive you, the Blood Dragon Ancestor is my father!"
"If you are willing to spare us, we will indeed act as if nothing happened... We are even willing to offer a significant gift!"
