An emperor in his later years is summoned by his sister to save the nation's fate.

Before her eyes, hundreds and thousands of mangled corpses materialized, stretching out their blood-soaked hands, trying to drag her down to hell with them.

However, faced with such a surge of resentment that could drive an ordinary person mad instantly, Lu Xueyao not only did not lose her composure, but instead curled up a maniacal sneer on her lips.

"You think this little bit of resentment can disturb my demonic mind?"

The Thousand Soul Seal in Lu Xueyao's mind, now fully transformed, shone brightly, instantly crushing all her delirium.

At the same time, under the stimulation of this extreme external pressure, the thin membrane in her mind about the Blood Fiend Blade Technique shattered!

"Bloodthirsty Blade Intent... Break!"

Lu Xueyao roared and raised the Blood Transformation Divine Blade. A killing intent, even more terrifying and purer than Tai Sui, surged from her body.

The sword intent has been perfected!

Lu Xueyao unleashed a slash, but instead of directly striking Tai Sui's physical body, she took the initiative and directly unleashed the Blood Moon Illusion attached to her sword intent!

"boom!"

The surrounding space was instantly stained a nauseating dark red.

In Tai Sui's vision, a towering mountain made up of countless bones appeared, along with a vast ocean churning with foul-smelling blood.

Amidst this mountain of corpses and sea of ​​blood, Lu Xueyao even forcibly simulated and integrated the indescribable illusion of the evil god she had encountered at the evil god's altar using the Thousand Soul Seal!

Although Tai Sui is an A-level supernatural being, its intelligence is inherently low, and it acts entirely on its bloodthirsty instincts.

When this illusion, which combined the oppressive feeling of an evil god with extreme slaughter, poured into its consciousness.

This invincible mountain of flesh and blood, for the first time ever, completely lost its focus for two seconds! Its wriggling stopped, and its defensive instincts crumbled.

"die!"

How could Lu Xueyao let this fleeting opening slip by? She gripped the Blood Transformation Divine Blade tightly with both hands, her nine life springs roared, and her blood and qi were fully unleashed. She transformed into a streak of blood-red lightning and slashed fiercely into the core flesh of the Tai Sui!

"Pfft!"

The blade, infused with S-grade Abyssal Mithril, was devastating, tearing apart the very rules-based defenses that Tai Sui was so proud of.

The Blood-Transforming Divine Blade greedily devoured the essence and blood of this A-grade body.

"Roar—!" Tai Sui let out a miserable scream and struggled frantically. Tai Sui's flesh and blood reserves were too vast. Even with the Demon Blade in hand, Lu Xueyao was unable to completely absorb them in a short time.

"Trying to run away?"

Lu Xueyao snorted coldly, and her left hand suddenly formed a seal, directly activating the Blood Transformation Array in the center of the territory.

"Splash!"

With the roar of the array plate, more than a dozen thick, blood-red chains, each as thick as a child's arm and formed from blood and the rules of the array, pierced into the massive body of the Tai Sui, locking it tightly in its supernatural core.

"Take it!"

Under the forceful drag of the formation, the massive mountain of flesh and blood plowed a deep trench in the ground and was forcibly pulled into the territory. Finally, with a "boom", it crashed into the blood pool and flesh forest located directly below the formation's core!

As the Tai Sui fell in, the Class B building immediately began operating at high speed.

The dark red pool water boiled like strong acid, and the Tai Sui's supposed immortality, which could be reborn from a single drop of blood, became a joke in the face of the architectural rules that restrained flesh and blood.

It tumbled and dissolved wildly in the pool of blood, its enormous body shrinking at a visible rate.

Meanwhile, the violent and chaotic essence blood within its body was automatically purified and refined by the building, eventually condensing into pure blood crystals the size of a thumb, crystal clear, and emitting a captivating fragrance at the edge of the blood pool.

Lu Xueyao sheathed her long sword and strolled into the territory, arriving at the Blood Pool and Flesh Forest.

She reached out and picked up a newly formed blood crystal. It felt warm and smooth to the touch, like jade, and she couldn't sense any eerie or malevolent energy at all.

She placed the blood crystal in her palm and activated her blood nerve.

"boom!"

The blood crystal instantly transformed into an extremely pure and surging stream of blood and qi, flowing directly into her eight extraordinary meridians like the Yangtze River.

Lu Xueyao felt every cell in her body rejoicing under the nourishment of this power, and all the fatigue in her body was swept away.

Within his sea of ​​consciousness, Lu Li watched this scene, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

"This blood crystal is truly a rare treasure, no less valuable than some sacred medicines from the Xuan Tian Realm!"

Lu Li pondered for a moment, his tone carrying a hint of sternness and expectation: "Xueyao, listen carefully. For ordinary cultivators, opening nine life springs within their bodies is already the limit of the Life Spring Realm, enough to attempt to break through to the next major realm, but..."

"Above the Nine Springs, there is actually a legendary tenth life spring."

This is the ultimate realm of the life spring, which breaks the shackles of heaven and earth. Ordinary people cannot even glimpse it in their entire lives, and can only enter by having a great opportunity to seize the creation of heaven and earth.

Once you succeed, your foundation and resources will completely surpass those of your peers!

"Tonight, with the aid of this blood crystal, go all out and open up this tenth spring of life!"

Hearing her brother's guidance, a determined look flashed in Lu Xueyao's eyes.

"Yes, brother!"

She sat cross-legged beside the blood pool, grabbing one Tai Sui blood crystal after another in her palms and frantically refining them.

One, two, ten...

The pure energy of blood and qi, like a piled-up volcano, was constantly compressed and collided within Lu Xueyao's dantian.

She endured the excruciating pain that felt like her meridians were about to burst, desperately circulating her Blood Nerve and Devouring Heaven Demon Art, guiding that world-destroying power to launch an attack on the unknown dark void deep within her dantian!

Time passed slowly, until the blood moon rose to its zenith.

"Boom—!"

A tremendous roar, as if the heavens and earth were created, erupted from Lu Xueyao's body.

Beside the nine springs of life gushing forth vital energy, accompanied by a dazzling purple-gold light, the tenth spring of life forcefully broke through the shackles of the rules and fully manifested!

"Splash—"

The ten springs of life formed a perfect great cycle in the dantian, shining brightly like ten dazzling suns.

A boundless and unparalleled life essence emanated from her skin, even transforming into a cloud of auspicious spiritual energy above Lu Xueyao's head.

The ultimate realm of the Life Spring is achieved!

With the blessing of this extreme environment, Lu Xueyao's lifespan increased by another fifty years.

……

At the same time, in the Xuan Tian Realm, on the Ziwei Emperor Star, in the boundless starry sky, nine pure-blooded black dragons exuding dragon might pulled a luxurious black and gold imperial chariot, smashing through the clouds in the sky and descending on the core area of ​​the Ziwei Emperor Star, the Eternal Night Imperial Court!

On the Imperial Court Square, 100,000 demon soldiers knelt on one knee, the atmosphere solemn and dignified.

At the very front of the army, three quasi-emperor-level powerhouses exuding an aura of world-destroying might—Nine Nether Demon Lord, Blood River Demon Lord, and White Bone Demon Lord—had already led the core high-ranking members of the Imperial Court, respectfully bowing their heads in anticipation.
