Ancient Devouring Technique

Chapter 253: Spirit Blood Palace and Chu Tianli

In Yunxiao Sect, on Gulang Peak, inside a magnificent palace.

An old man in a gray robe was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed. There was a flickering black and white light on his face and a drop of sweat was faintly sliding down his forehead.

If Ye Xuan were here, he would find out that this grey-robed old man was none other than the unfathomable elder in the Martial Emperor realm, Zheng Lao, who said he wanted to take him as his disciple.

Suddenly, Zheng Lao's face twisted slightly, revealing a trace of pain. He suddenly opened his eyes, and with a "pu" sound, he spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Bastard! Damn it!" Zheng Lao suddenly roared, and he didn't know why. His face, which was originally kind in front of outsiders, became ferocious and furious. The vital energy in his body surged, and the furnishings in the palace were smashed into a mess. Sharp roars came out of his mouth, scaring several maids in the hall so much that their faces turned pale and trembled.

After a long roar, Zheng Lao finally calmed down a little, breathing heavily, his face looked scary and his old eyes were uncertain.

"Hehe~" a strange laugh.

A black figure like a ghost suddenly appeared from the corner. This person was covered in a black cloak and his appearance could not be seen. When he appeared, ripples appeared in the space.

"Huang Twenty-six, don't even think about breaking the contract. Once you enter the alliance, your soul has been imprisoned. Without the consent of the alliance's top leaders, you cannot break the contract. How have you done with what the Lord has told you to do?" A mocking and sneering voice came from the black cloak.

Zheng Lao's whole body trembled, his face was complicated, and a hint of hesitation flashed in his eyes.

The black-robed figure sneered, "Huang Twenty-Six, you should know that time is running out. You have also seen how other members who did not complete their tasks died tragically. Why are you still hesitating?"

Zheng Lao snorted coldly and said, "Huang Shijiu, after doing this, can I really leave the alliance?"

The black-robed figure nodded and said, "Of course, but are you sure you really want to leave the alliance? You have to know that you can only achieve your current level of cultivation by joining the alliance."

Zheng Lao hesitated slightly and said, "I'm tired and don't want to be controlled anymore. You go contact the other members who are going to take action."

The black-robed figure let out a strange laugh. "It's up to you, Huang Twenty-Six. I believe you are a smart person and will not do anything stupid. Also, I have a personal favor to ask of you. You must keep an eye on that kid named Ye Xuan for me and don't let him get away."

Zheng Lao nodded, "Don't worry, Huang Nineteen. That junior is only at the True Spirit Realm. Although he is a warrior of the same type as you, he cannot get out of the Yunxiao Sect's protective formation."

The black-robed figure laughed twice, and the space around him rippled like water, and then disappeared into the dark corner again.

Zheng Lao took a deep breath, his old eyes moved slightly, and his gaze fell on the maids in the hall who had already been frightened out of their wits after hearing the conversation between him and Huang Shijiu, and a trace of pity appeared in his eyes.

The maids knew that they had heard something they should not have heard. They were terrified and knelt on the ground, kowtowed and begged for mercy.

He sighed, "Don't blame me. I can't do anything about it... I will make you suffer a quick death."

A black mist emerged from Zheng Lao's body, like a tentacle, and swept across the bodies of the maids who were kneeling and trembling on the ground as fast as lightning. The maids were shocked and fell to the ground. Their faces aged rapidly, and in the blink of an eye they turned into a few white bones.

Zheng Lao shook his head, closed his eyes, and waved his hand. A strong wind blew up, and the several bones and all the furnishings in the hall were turned into dust in an instant.

Four days passed in the Spirit Beast Garden.

Apart from feeding the spirit beast every day, Ye Xuan stayed in the wooden house to practice.

On this day, Ye Xuan had just walked back from the back mountain, but saw a woman in a green dress standing in front of his house.

It was Zilan.

As Zi Lan breathed in and out casually, Ye Xuan vaguely saw a vortex of vital energy swirling around her body. It had obviously reached saturation and she seemed to be about to advance to the Martial King realm at any time.

"Senior Sister Zi!" Ye Xuan said.

"Haha, Junior Brother Ye, you are really low-key and never go to the inner sect?" Zilan looked at Ye Xuan and asked with a smile.

"I wonder if Senior Sister Zilan wants to talk to me about something." Ye Xuan smiled slightly.

"Uh." Zi Lan was startled, and smiled bitterly, "Can't you come to see me if you have nothing to do? However, I have to go to the Spirit Blood Hall this time. There is a small gathering there. If you have time, you can go with me. You can also see the true genius of our Yunxiao Sect, and it can also temper your martial arts character, which will be of great benefit to your future practice."

Zilan smiled.

Ye Xuan's heart moved when he heard that they were actually going to the Spirit Blood Palace. He was really going to investigate. He said, "The extraordinary genius that Senior Sister mentioned must be extremely extraordinary. I, Junior Brother, would be very happy to have the honor to see him."

Ye Xuan was also quite interested in the top talents of Yunxiao Sect. He thought that such talents were well-known in the entire Nanzhou, and he really wanted to take a look.

Of course, the most important thing is to find out about the Spirit Blood Palace.

"Well, then, let's go now. Junior brother, remember not to say too much when we get there."

As she spoke, Zilan waved her hand and released a small flying boat, carrying Ye Xuan, and the two flew towards the Lingxue Palace.

In front of a huge palace, the ground was paved with white jade, forming a square about an acre in size.

Zi Lan brought Ye Xuan and the small flying boat landed directly in the square.

"Junior brother, this is the Spirit Blood Hall. This hall is divided into two halls, the front hall and the back hall. The front hall is the gathering place. The entire front hall is made of a kind of stone called Taiyu Jingshi. In this front hall, no matter how you fight, you can't damage this hall at all. Moreover, this Taiyu Jingshi has a magical power, that is, it can absorb the power of fighting. There will be a fight in this front hall later, and the fighter is our Yunxiao Sect's peerless genius.

As for the back hall, it is a restricted area, no one can enter, and once someone enters, they will be directly killed by the forbidden formation."

Zilan explained carefully to Ye Xuan.

"Thank you, senior sister, for telling me." Ye Xuan nodded. At the same time, he saw several powerful rays of light, colorful, flying towards this side from all directions.

Each of these ray of light contains a powerful aura that only exists at the Martial King level!

The breath is extremely strong and thick!
"Hey, look who it is, Zilan is here too." After several beams of light fell one after another, the pretty figures of several women appeared.

Zi Lan's face darkened, and she said to Ye Xuan Zhen Yuan, "This is from Bitchi Peak. The woman who spoke is called Zhen Qian. She has some grudges against me. She is narrow-minded and petty, but she is very talented and has a high level of cultivation. Be careful when you see her in the future."

Zilan was secretly feeling uneasy. Originally, she and Zhen Qian were both disciples of the same period, but Zhen Qian was very talented. She had advanced to the Martial King realm several years ago. After that, she used her higher cultivation level to suppress her everywhere. She didn't expect that this girl would come here today.

Seeing that Zilan did not answer but just had a cold face, Zhen Qian, who was in a blue dress, giggled and looked at Ye Xuan beside Zilan.

"Oh? This can't be your new martial arts partner, right? Not bad, not bad, but his cultivation is a bit low and his aptitude seems to be poor."

"You..." Upon hearing Zhen Qian's words, Zi Lan was immediately ashamed and angry. If she didn't know that she was no match for this woman and that fighting would only embarrass herself, she would definitely explode and fight with her.

Zhen Qian still smiled at Zi Lan and said, "All those who came here today are true martial arts geniuses. You are welcome to come. We are all disciples of the same generation, but it would be bad to bring along a random person."

Hearing Zhen Qian's words, the several female martial kings who came with her all burst out laughing.

"Zhen Qian, let's resolve our grudge between the two of us. Don't involve others!" Zi Lan said angrily.

"Haha, don't worry. I don't even bother to deal with a junior in the True Spirit Realm." Zhen Qian smiled sweetly and charmingly, and even gave Ye Xuan a wink.

Ye Xuan stood there calmly and didn't say anything from beginning to end.

Zhen Qian was stunned, feeling slightly doubtful. The glance just now seemed casual, but it actually contained the charm technique that she was quite good at. But she didn't expect that this disciple from the True Spirit Realm was not fooled by her charm technique?

At this moment, a female warrior queen in a purple dress beside her suddenly pointed to the sky excitedly and said, "Look! Senior Brother Chu from Shenyun Peak is here, look!"

Several female martial queens suddenly became excited, and even Zhen Qian looked over hurriedly, no longer caring why Ye Xuan, with his cultivation level at the True Spirit Realm, was not affected by her charm.

"Master, do you want me to kill this woman?" Zi Ling's voice sounded in Ye Xuan's mind.

"Don't act rashly." Ye Xuan replied.

He cultivated both divine power and martial arts, and possessed a powerful Star Jade Pupil martial soul. Although Zhen Qian was a powerful warrior at the first level of the Martial King Realm, it was still impossible to use charm techniques on her easily.

Ye Xuan also looked and saw a young man in white clothes appearing in the sky, as if the sun was descending. Circles of martial arts halo were around his body, giving off an incomparably powerful aura, like a young god descending to the world!
"Junior Brother Ye, he is the one of the peerless geniuses of our Yunxiao Sect that I mentioned, a super monster who proudly tops the list of the younger generation in Nanzhou, Chu Tianli! He has powerful ancient bloodline, Dark Night Pupils martial soul, and his martial arts skills are infinitely close to the Martial Emperor realm!" Zi Lan took a deep breath and transmitted her true energy to Ye Xuan.

She was afraid that Ye Xuan didn't know how powerful Chu Tianli was, so she sent another voice message, "Junior Brother Ye, the Dark Night Clan was an ancient race in ancient times, known as the Night Angels. Although Senior Brother Chu only has a tiny amount of Dark Night blood, he has grown a third eye, the Dark King Pupil!"
