Chapter 414 Earth-Shaking, Blood Sacrifice (4000)

The green-haired giant stared intently at the crimson figure, his mind heavy.

At this moment, he was no longer surprised by the deaths of Elder Mu Chen and the First Elder. Only by truly facing the person in front of him could he feel the overwhelming pressure.

That was the despair that could be felt simply by the other person standing there.

At this moment, he regretted it. He shouldn't have come alone. Even if it meant disturbing the ancestor's breakthrough, he should have awakened him and come to kill this person.

Unfortunately, there's no going back now.

He is now the strongest in the clan besides the patriarch, and he must shoulder his responsibilities.

A variety of thoughts flashed through my mind, culminating in a sigh:
"Fellow Daoist, is there really no room for negotiation?"

A beam of bright white light flashed, and the burly man vanished from his spot once more, but it stirred up waves of blood among the Willow Clan cultivators.

Severed limbs and blood were scattered everywhere, staining the mountains and rivers red.

Zhang Yuanzhu stared expressionlessly at the imposing figure that reappeared in the distance.

He took a step forward and brandished the long ruler.

Click~
Space tore open, and the green-haired giant vanished.

Within a radius of a thousand miles, a burly figure flashed continuously, and each time it appeared, a long, white ruler would fall down.

Time ticked by, and the big man's expression grew increasingly grim; the other party's perception was far too sharp.

Whether it was an attack or an escape, the other side evaded it and blocked it.

Moreover, the spatial treasure he carried didn't have much energy left.

Click~
Another foot of metal crashed down, shattering the space.

This time, the burly man did not flee. He raised his arms, and a cyan-gold arm guard appeared, shimmering with brilliant light, as he went to meet the attacker.

clang!
With a metallic clang, layers of air waves swept in all directions, blowing up fragments of space and tearing mountains and rivers apart.

The green-haired giant retreated rapidly, finally stopping at the foot of a great mountain.

"So you finally dare to face me?"

Zhang Yuanzhu, holding a long ruler, descended from the air.

A series of purple halos emanated from his body, hovering above and below, making him appear like a deity descending to earth.

So noble that one cannot look directly at them!
"It's not that he's too cowardly."

As the green-haired giant watched the approaching crimson figure, he had already prepared for the worst.

He reached into his robes and took out a jade pendant, its color a vibrant green.

The jade pendant emitted a bluish light, which disrupted the space and almost blurred the burly figure, causing him to leave again.

His five fingers suddenly clenched together.

Click!

The jade pendant shattered, and the spatial treasure turned to dust, slipping through their fingers.

Even if I die in battle, I will not allow my enemies to obtain the spatial treasures.

Zhang Yuanzhu paused slightly, his fingers gripping the long ruler tightly, a hint of admiration flashing in his eyes:
"The determination is good, but if one is already prepared to die before the battle even begins, how can one win?"

Boom!

His arms were raised, like a thunderclap, shaking heaven and earth.

With a single step, the long ruler swung down, as if cleaved by a knife.

The light of the blades shot into the sky, and a crimson dragon, coiled around the mountain of blades, appeared in the heavens, its head plunging downwards.

His eyes were icy cold, and his killing intent was chilling.

roar~
With a long howl, hundreds of miles of mountains and rivers were shattered.

In the next instant, it darted down at lightning speed.

The green-haired giant looked unusually solemn and raised his arms.

Layers of cyan light burst forth from the arm guard, intertwining and converging to transform into an ancient tree reaching the heavens.

The ancient trees stand tall, like a divine mountain, rising abruptly from the ground and soaring into the sky.

A crimson dragon and an ancient tree, the two constantly traversing space...
near!

near!!
Get closer!!!
Until they touch.

Rumble!
Amidst a deafening roar, the crimson dragon collided violently with the ancient tree.

Blades flashed and branches clashed, swords clashed with tree canopies, and a crimson dragon coiled around the tree trunks as it charged toward the earth.

Zhang Yuanzhu's eyes were icy, and he reached out with his free hand.

A series of purple halos converged and transformed around him, turning into a long spear that hovered beside him.

Ninety-one long spears, all purple in color, with lightning crackling around their tips and a metallic edge, caused the surrounding space to ripple, revealing slivers of dark void.

kill!

With a slap of his hand, the spear shot out.

In an instant, space tore apart, leaving ninety-one dark ravines in the sky before finally hitting the tree trunk.

Boom boom boom~
Wood chips flew everywhere, leaves fell like rain, and tree trunks were broken off.

The fierce blade flashed, cleaving through the broken wood, and crashed down, engulfing the enemy.

The blinding flash of the blade and the roaring crimson dragon became unique in the world.

After an unknown amount of time, the sword light faded, and the crimson dragon disappeared.

A burly figure, bent over and panting heavily, had a talisman floating above his head and a dim gray light surrounding his body.

bang~
The talisman shattered, and the gray light disappeared.

"Fight to the death!"

The burly man straightened his back and roared to the sky.

Qi, blood, spiritual awareness, magical power, and malevolent energy all boiled and burned, bursting forth with bursts of power to empower himself.

Immediately, he raised both arms and charged into the sky.

Zhang Yuanzhu stared at his still-alive enemy, his double pupils narrowing slightly.

These alien races possessed incredibly diverse and bizarre resources. Fortunately, when they annihilated the Celestial God Clan, they directly sealed them off with a large array, refining all the powerful members to death and saving them a lot of trouble.

Lost in thought, the measuring ruler was slung at his waist, and the jade flute appeared as his five fingers shifted.

He smiled, held the Lingxi Flute horizontally to his lips, and a few strands of black hair on his fair forehead swayed in the wind.

Like a banished immortal descending to earth, carrying a kind of ethereal charm.

"A flute melody will send the enemy to their grave; he will not be alone on his journey to the underworld."

Then, a desolate flute melody rose, ancient and weathered, bearing the marks of time.

Crystal-clear petals fall from the sky, beautiful and dazzling, brushing over every tiny spot; the mountains and rocks remain unchanged, and the grass and trees are as they were before.

But when the petals fell on the strong man's body.

In an instant, the azure light surrounding him dissipated, his boiling blood and magical power calmed down, and his explosive energy disappeared.

The tall body fell from the sky and was no longer alive.

At the same time, the Willow Clan members who had been watching the battle from the sidelines and were not yet completely dead lay down as the music faded away, their life force dissipating.

As time passed, the sound of the flute transformed from desolate and ancient to melodious and gentle.

After finishing the piece, Zhang Yuanzhu put down his jade flute, surveyed the landscape, and looked at the corpses. He then spoke:
"it's over!"

Stepping forward, they arrived at the remains of the green-haired giant.

He held a jade flute in one hand and waved the other at the corpse.

Whoosh~
Two streaks of light emerged from the wreckage and hovered in front of them.

Those were two arm guards, their surfaces a bluish-gold color, engraved with intricate and beautiful patterns.

Gorgeous and imposing!
Zhang Yuanzhu carefully examined the utensils, a satisfied smile appearing on his face.

He reached out and gently stroked the arm guard, feeling the coldness from his fingertips.

"A low-grade brake."

The young man made his judgment and flipped his hand to put away the weapon.

Immediately, he took out a storage bag from the wreckage, broke through the restriction with his spiritual sense, and poured into it.

A moment later, a hint of disappointment flashed in Zhang Yuanzhu's eyes.

All the spiritual objects and materials within were self-destructed, clearly indicating that the Great Han had foreseen its own fate and destroyed everything except for the items used in the battle.

The five fingers suddenly exerted force.

bang~
The storage bag exploded, and the tattered cloth turned to ashes.

Zhang Yuanzhu flicked his sleeves and gathered up the corpses on the ground.

Afterwards, they roamed the vast land, collecting all the corpses. These alien races who participated in the encirclement and kill were all formidable; even the weakest among them possessed the strength of the Qi Refining Realm, making them excellent resources.

About an hour later, the battlefield was cleaned up.

Zhang Yuanzhu sat cross-legged amidst the mountains and rivers, looking down at the ravaged land.

The broken battle formations and tattered banners tell of the brutality of the battle.

"The formation wasn't completely destroyed, so let's stay here; it'll save us some trouble."

With a flick of his sleeve, piles of spirit stones, spirit ores, and spirit blood appeared before him.

In the blink of an eye.

Strands of crimson-gold flames appeared out of thin air, covering all kinds of spiritual materials.

The spirit stones melted, condensed, and transformed, turning into array plates and array flags.

As time passed, the spiritual materials were rapidly consumed, and the array plates and array flags increased until they filled the mountaintop.

That should be enough.

Zhang Yuanzhu murmured to himself:
He planned to take this opportunity to set up a blood sacrifice array to try to taint the divine sword, at least to suppress the awakened weapon spirit and put it into a deep sleep.

In this way, whether it's attacking the Willow Clan's territory or leaving, things will be much easier.

However, before that, he needs to bring himself to his peak condition and digest what he has learned in this battle to avoid any unexpected events.

Zhang Yuanzhu opened his mouth and inhaled.

Boom!

The surrounding area trembled, and boundless spiritual energy surged in, converging rapidly.

At the same time, he took out various spiritual medicines from his pocket and swallowed them directly to recover his energy and adjust his condition.

A cup of tea has passed!

A stick of incense has burned out!
An hour has passed!
It wasn't until three hours later that the gathered spiritual energy slowly dissipated.

Zhang Yuanzhu's vital energy, spirit, and essence have also been restored to their best condition.

He stretched out his palm, and two streams of light shot out from the storage bag, hovering in his palm.

The two cyan-gold arm guards emitted a faint glow.

The young man gently gripped the arm guards, whispering to himself:
'Take control!'

In an instant, the arm guards disappeared.

Deep within the soul, the mirror formed by the intertwining and convergence of red, blue, and purple divine light also underwent a slight transformation.

Mastery: [Level 3] Myriad Wood Armor (Trait: Sky-Supporting)

The moment the [Special Attribute] Sky-Piercing appeared, the [Special Attribute] Earth-Shaking slowly blurred and reappeared attached to 'Sky-Piercing'.

Mastery: Trait: Earth-shaking!

In an instant, a surge of powerful energy welled up from the depths of his heart and filled his entire body.

Every muscle, every drop of blood, was trembling, was cheering, and its power was rapidly surging and climbing.

Even Zhang Yuanzhu's mind was shaken, and he felt a sense of 'hate that the heavens have no ring and the earth has no handle'.

Call ~
With a single breath, he swept across the sky for hundreds of miles and pierced through the mountains.

powerful!

Still powerful!!
Zhang Yuanzhu continuously adapted to the emerging power, and the synergy of the two level-three [characteristics] far surpassed that of the past.

Breathe in.
He inhaled and exhaled, mobilizing his muscles and internal organs to slowly adapt to the power.

It wasn't until an incense stick had burned out that he turned his attention back to the depths of his mind, perceiving the new [characteristics].

"An unexpected gain."

Zhang Yuanzhu whispered.

Now, he can tear through space with his physical body alone, fight against a third-step expert in the Condensation Realm, and is confident that he can kill him.

The young man himself could not judge what he could achieve if he used all his strength.

However, since our combat strength has already increased, we might as well take it a step further.

With a flick of his wrist, a stone box appeared in his palm.

Five fingers lightly tap the stone box.

Click!

The box was opened, revealing a fruit that shimmered with a bluish-gold luster.

A rich aroma of herbs permeated the mountaintop.

This is a precious medicine that enhances cultivation. It was a spoil of war from his killing of a powerful member of the Willow Clan, and now it serves as provisions for his journey.

Without hesitation, he grabbed the bluish-gold fruit, pulled it to his mouth, and swallowed it whole.

The fruit melts in your mouth, and gentle energy flows through your body.

It nourishes the body and fills the lower abdomen.

The eight-layered spiritual platform trembled slightly, and streams of cyan energy adhered to it, transforming into cultivation.

His cultivation level began to increase at a visible speed, and his spiritual platform trembled more and more violently.

From night to day, and from day to night, the precious medicine was finally completely refined.

Realm: Foundation Establishment Level 8 (35.15%)

Zhang Yuanzhu sensed the information deep within his mind, and a smile appeared on his lips, filled with pleasure.

Since breaking through to the eighth level of Foundation Establishment, he has already completed more than half of it in just a few months, and his cultivation speed is extremely fast.

At the current rate of cultivation, even without taking any more precious medicines, a year would be enough for him to enter a new realm.

The young man's thoughts were deep, and his smile deepened.

Finally, he turned his gaze to the array plate and array flags in front of him.

He stood up, his robes fluttering, and collected all the materials for setting up the formation.

He leaped down, landed on the ground, and strode forward.

Patterns emerged from beneath their feet and spread outwards. Array plates transformed into streams of light, burying themselves underground, while array flags stood erect.

Combining the existing remnants of the formation, a blood sacrifice formation was set up at an extremely fast speed.

Soon, the area within a hundred miles was filled with array patterns, and the array flags fluttered in the wind.

Zhang Yuanzhu returned to the mountaintop, looked down, and his eyes were serious.

With a thought, a jet-black bead appeared in his palm, emitting wisps of black mist, eerily sinister.

This is a demonic artifact that Fa Yan brought out from the Golden Core Ruins. It was originally a high-grade evil artifact, but it is badly damaged and can still be used as a mid-grade evil artifact.

With a raised palm, the magic orb was tossed down and merged into the earth.

In an instant, patterns spread toward the magic orb, array plates rose up, and array flags fluttered.

boom!
A surge of demonic energy erupted, staining the heavens and earth. The shimmering array patterns began to twist and become sinister, radiating demonic energy.

A magic array has been set up!

Waaaaaah~
The cries of ghosts and wolves echoed within the formation, tempting hearts and causing souls to succumb to depravity.

Zhang Yuanzhu, expressionless, carefully examined the formation and spoke:
"not enough!"

He reached down and patted the storage bag.

Flesh, bones, severed limbs, and corpses cascaded down like a waterfall, disappearing into the great formation.

In an instant, all flesh and bones melted away and merged into the formation.

Wisps of blood mist formed and intertwined with rolling demonic energy, turning the great formation into black and red.

Resentment, yin energy, ghostly energy, hatred—all sorts of negative emotions flowed within the formation, making it extremely eerie.

As for Zhang Yuanzhu, his eyes emitted streaks of dark light, covering himself and the mountains and rivers, like a great demon walking among men.

At this moment, whoever comes—Buddhism, the righteous path, or even unorthodox sects—faced with such a scene, will inevitably think:

A demon is lurking here, plotting evil deeds.

Zhang Yuanzhu stood atop the mountain, his body enveloped in dark light, his palm outstretched.

Stab it!

His palm tore open, and drops of purplish-gold blood slid down, flowing into the great formation and merging into the demonic mist.

A bluish light blooms, healing the wounds.

"It's time to start!"

Zhang Yuanzhu muttered to himself, and with a flick of his hand, a divine sword shrouded in crimson clouds and mist appeared.

The sword light flashed, ready to unleash a reverse slash.
The next moment, the Long Rainbow Sword, along with its sword light, disappeared and reappeared in the center of the great formation.

It's a feature transfer!
