Chapter 427 - 36: Secrets Revealed
Sure enough, after a tall figure emerged,
it quickly inhaled all of the blood mist through its nose in one go, revealing the true appearance of this figure,
which was eerily identical to the Blood Demon Child refined by Zhou Xun,
except its aura was even stronger, reaching the Late-Stage Core Formation level. Even the one Zhou Xun refined with the Celestial Feather Sect’s Grand Elder
paled in comparison to this one!
Zhou Xun couldn’t help but feel some suspicion,
"A Late-Stage Core Formation Blood Demon Child, could it be that this old demon used the corpse of a Peak Core Formation Cultivator to refine it?"
"But why isn’t it five?"
With his strength, Zhou Xun didn’t believe he couldn’t find another four corpses of True Pill Cultivators!
However, Zhou Xun didn’t have time to think more about it now,
He patted the Blood Demon Bag at his waist, and five beams of blood light shot out, transforming into five tall figures, rushing towards the Late-Stage Core Formation Blood Demon Child in front of them.
Using Blood Demon Child against Blood Demon Child was the best method.
Sure enough, the moment Zhou Xun took out the five Blood Demon Children, the Old Demon Yulu on the opposite side looked shocked and exclaimed,
"Blood Demon Child!"
"Could it be you are also from the Blood Refining Sect? I don’t know which branch you come from?"
Blood Refining Sect?
Hearing this, Zhou Xun’s heart skipped a beat.
He had of course heard of the name of this sect, which was one of the three core forces of the Demon Alliance.
"Could it be that my ’Blood Demon Scripture’ actually comes from one of the three major Demon Sects of the Central Continent?"
Zhou Xun speculated in his heart.
No wonder this Blood Demon Child secret technique had such power, even facing the Tier Three High-Grade Thunder Flood Dragon back in the day, it was by no means at a disadvantage.
It must be known that the vast majority of demonic cultivation techniques were restrained by Thunder Skills.
Yet the Blood Demon Child could confront and resist them, clearly demonstrating its strength!
Zhou Xun did not answer the words of Old Demon Yulu, only sneered in response.
Under the astonished gaze of Old Demon Yulu, the five Blood Demon Children attacked simultaneously, as if one entity, engaging the Late-Stage Core Formation Blood Demon Child,
suppressing it slightly.
"This is... the Blood Demon Joint Attack Technique!" Old Demon Yulu was shocked.
This secret technique, in the Blood Refining Sect, besides the Elder Nascent Souls, only the Saint Heirs of the sect were qualified to learn it,
for it was a core secret transmission of the Blood Refining Sect.
"Could it be, this man before me is the Saint Heir of the Blood Refining Sect?"
But he knew the Saint Heir of their sect, even the previous Saint Heir was his own brother.
Soon, a sinister gleam appeared in the old man’s eyes.
"Speak, where did you get the secret transmission of my Blood Refining Sect from!" The old man said with a grim face.
"Who says this secret technique can only belong to your Blood Refining Sect!" Zhou Xun laughed mockingly.
"Good, good, very good!"
"Do you know that as a non-member, stealing our secret techniques will result in being hunted by my Blood Refining Sect to death!" the elder articulated each word.
"Hahaha, one of the Three Great Demon Sects indeed, truly domineering!"
Zhou Xun chuckled coldly, holding the Array Manipulation Command Flag, he swung down again,
The command flag fell four times, each swing conjuring a demon spirit a hundred feet in size.
"Cyan Dragon!" "White Tiger!" "Vermilion Bird!" "Black Tortoise!"
The four demon spirits roared and charged towards Old Demon Yulu.
At the same time, Zhou Xun’s Earth Element Beast mount was not idle, accompanying the four demon spirits in the charge!
Feeling the power of the four demon spirits, no weaker than Tier Three Middle-Grade Great Demons, Old Demon Yulu’s face turned grim.
With his mouth gaping open, a pitch-black small banner flew out, densely covered with various skulls.
Then, he formed a spell with his hands, and a black light struck the banner face!
Immediately, the small banner expanded, transforming into a behemoth several hundred feet in size, shrouding several hundred feet of space,
and then emanated a thick black mist,
enclosing the four demon spirits, from which countless wails of ghosts and howls of wolves echoed,
countless skulls bearing thick black light, lunged at the four demon spirits.
The Earth Element Beast flapped its wings, scattering six Wind Blade Tornadoes that shredded the approaching skulls into pieces, turning them into black mist,
The four demon spirits did the same, wielding their divine techniques to disperse the skulls around them,
but soon, those skulls reconstituted in the distance, reforming into skulls, rushing in again.
It came to a stalemate for a moment.
Seeing this scene, Zhou Xun’s expression grew serious,
This Old Demon Yulu truly had an abundance of treasures, and they were all extremely fine quality!
Fortunately, the means Zhou Xun had applied, whether it was the Blood Demon Child or the array, did not consume his own mana. If this stalemate continued, he would eventually be defeated.
On the other side, Old Demon Yulu was also finding it difficult.
Forget about his Blood Demon Child, at the Late-Stage Core Formation level, equivalent to a human cultivator at Late-Stage Core Formation, with a robust physique and extreme strength!
This Lifebound Magical Treasure, the Ten Thousand Skull Banner, was sacrificially refined from a million human races. Although it was only at the level of a Middle-Grade Magical Treasure, its power was the ultimate of Middle-Grade,
This person, with an array and a spirit beast, was able to counter and nullify it. Such a Middle-Stage Core Formation Cultivator he had not seen for a long time!
"Even my elder brother back then, was just like this, right!"
"Could this person be a prodigious talent of some righteous sect!" the old demon could not help but think.
"If I could kill him, perhaps I could wash away my sins and return to the sect. By then, with my brother’s current standing, he could probably secure a Nascent Soul Formation slot for me!"
With this thought, the old man’s heart blazed, and his eyes burned as he looked at Zhou Xun as if looking at a Nascent Soul Spiritual Object.
He immediately hesitated not, formed a spell with his hands, and pointed it at himself.
Then spouted several mouthfuls of essence blood onto the Ten Thousand Skull Banner before him!
The gigantic banner surged with black light, its aura rising sharply, the originally present number of skulls multiplied, and the pressure on the four demon spirits and the Earth Element Beast increased instantly,
pushing them back step by step,
Seeing this, Zhou Xun showed joy instead of concern!
He opened his mouth and thirty-six Thunder Seeds flew out, spreading across a thousand feet of space, wrapping the skyward giant banner within,
"Purple Sky True Thunder Array!"
Then he formed spells with his hands, a touch of spirit light, nearly half of his mana surged out without hesitation!
Subsequently, thousands of Thunder Lights emerged simultaneously, from all directions, blasting towards the giant banner!
Roaring thunder continuously sounded!
It must be known that Zhou Xun’s Thunder Seeds had absorbed the remnants of Tribulation Thunder,
each Thunder Light striking down contained the destructive intent of Tribulation Thunder!
Thunder Skills were inherently the nemesis of demonic ways, let alone this representation of Heavenly Dao’s majesty, the Nine Heavens True Thunder, something no demonic way dared to touch!
Even though it was just residuals, it was like the heavenly thunder of annihilation!
Old Demon Yulu sensed the power of this thunder, his face drastically changed, turning ashen white!
"Celestial... Celestial Thunder, how is it possible!"
As soon as he spoke, the overwhelming Thunder Light engulfed the giant banner, countless skulls and black mist were obliterated, perishing on the spot!
The giant banner, once hundreds of feet tall, let out a wailing sound, then an explosive noise, its spirit light nearly extinguished!
The Ten Thousand Skull Banner was almost destroyed!
Meanwhile, not far away, Old Demon Yulu let out a scream, clutching his head, his face as pale as could be, ebbing in and out of consciousness,
clearly suffered multiple injuries!
Seeing this, Zhou Xun was overjoyed,
Such a godsend opportunity, naturally could not be missed!
