Great Immortal With Boundless Mana

Chapter 202: Blood God Banner

"Someone is coming, and he has the Qinglian Sword Order in his hand!"

Blood Lingzi looked at the Qinglian Sword Order in his hand, which was shining with spiritual light. The bright green light was pointing diagonally upwards.

Following the direction of the green light, his crimson pupils looked over, and there was a thick black basalt stone wall.

After thousands of years, the black basalt stone remained thick and hard, and even the traces left by the excavation were still clearly preserved.

The underground ruins were filled with heavy cold air, and most places were windless. However, the underground spiritual energy here was quite abundant, which also contributed to the preservation of this sealed underground ruins.

Blood Lingzi had been here for over two months and was very familiar with the surrounding area.

He didn't even need to look to know what was happening diagonally above. He also knew that the other party must be even more powerful.

Blood Lingzi's crimson pupils dilated, and in the depths of his pupils, eight smaller gray-white pupils appeared.

Yin Demon Eyes, a secret technique from the Blood Slaughter Demon Scripture, condensed into pupils by transforming Yin Demons. Each Yin Demon formed increased the power by twofold.

Yin Demon Eyes could directly attack a cultivator's soul, create illusions, see through material barriers, and had many other uses.

Although Blood Lingzi was only 120 years old, he was the direct disciple of Qiansha Old Demon and had reached the tenth level of Foundation Building.

Qiansha Old Demon also relied heavily on Blood Lingzi, and the most important inheritance treasure of the Seven Slaughter Sect, the Blood God Banner, was in his hands.

Since the death of Qiansha Old Demon, Blood Lingzi had been hiding with the remaining ten Foundation Building cultivators, staying together in the Seven Slaughter Sect.

Last year, Blood Lingzi obtained a piece of the Qinglian Sword Order. After pondering for a long time, he finally used the powerful blood god within the Blood God Banner to unlock the Qinglian Sword Order.

Through the divine sense within the Qinglian Sword Order, Blood Lingzi learned that there was a sealed small Grotto-Heaven deep within the ruins.

Blood Lingzi found an excuse and quietly searched for the entrance to the sealed Grotto-Heaven. However, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't open the restrictions on the sealed Grotto-Heaven.

Helpless, he called the ten Foundation Building cultivators from the same sect and started killing people everywhere in the underground ruins, trying to find other Qinglian Sword Orders.

After a year of such turmoil, Blood Lingzi finally found another piece of the Qinglian Sword Order on a wandering cultivator.

The integration of the two Qinglian Sword Orders finally gave Blood Lingzi hope of opening the Grotto-Heaven.

Just as success seemed within reach, another outsider appeared?!

Eight gray-white small pupils in the depths of Blood Lingzi's pupils rotated and expanded in different directions. The Yin Demon Eyes penetrated through the rocks and soil layers, but saw nothing.

The eight gray-white small pupils showed various emotions such as confusion, incomprehension, resentment, and more.

Two of the gray-white pupils even expanded rapidly, as if they were going to occupy the entire eye.

Blood Lingzi sensed that something was wrong and quickly pinched a spell, shaking the Blood God Banner to forcefully suppress the restless Yin Demon Eyes caused by his emotions.

Cultivating Yin Demons as eyes was indeed powerful. However, these Yin Demons had absorbed too much resentment and malevolence, which could distort his will and even take over his body.

When Xuelingzi waved the Blood God Banner, there were flickering crimson shadows on the blood-colored long banner, releasing a chilling and endless evil aura.

A group of Blood Robe Foundation Building cultivators around them were swept by the chilling evil aura, their faces pale, instinctively retreating far back.

Xuelingzi coldly glanced at the other Foundation Building cultivators, "A bunch of useless people, not even aware of the arrival of outsiders!"

No one dared to speak up, all obediently bowing their heads to receive the scolding. Xuelingzi had a violent temper and would kill without hesitation.

This guy also possessed the sect's treasure, the Blood God Banner, specifically used to restrain them. Even if they joined forces, they couldn't match Xuelingzi who held the Blood God Banner.

After reprimanding them for a few more words, Xuelingzi continued, "The person who came has the Qinglian Sword Order. If we take it from him, we can immediately open this Grotto-Heaven."

As he spoke, he pointed to the black stone wall in front of them. This black stone wall appeared completely normal, not even the Yin Demon Eye could see anything wrong inside.

Only with the Qinglian Sword Order could the prohibition deep within the stone wall be activated, sensing the existence of the small Grotto-Heaven.

Although the Blood Slaughter Sect was a third-rate demonic cultivation sect, it had a significant background in terms of its lineage.

The Blood Slaughter Demon Scripture, a first-rate secret technique even among the demonic path, was a testament to their foundation.

Because of this background, Xuelingzi knew that the so-called Grotto-Heaven was actually a huge independent space, which could be seen as an exceptionally large storage bag.

The difference was that storage spaces were lifeless and could only hold inanimate objects, and they couldn't overlap with other storage spaces.

On the other hand, Grotto-Heavens were alive and could accommodate all living beings, as well as other spatial treasures.

The prestigious sects of the Nine Continents all had their own Grotto-Heaven blessed lands.

Although Xuelingzi hadn't opened this small Grotto-Heaven left behind by an ancient sect, he could barely sense that the space inside wasn't large.

Even so, a small Grotto-Heaven was equivalent to the central hub of a sect, akin to a sect's treasure trove, with immense value.

Perhaps there were ten thousand-year spirit medicines, spiritual weapons, divine weapons, and even secret technique inheritances, anything was possible!

With the death of the Thousand Slaughter Old Demon, the Blood Slaughter Sect lost its Gold Core expert, and they became like stray dogs.

If they could obtain treasures from the Grotto-Heaven, Xuelingzi might have a chance to achieve Gold Core, and things would be different then!

Xuelingzi didn't care about the Blood Slaughter Sect's heritage, but he cared a lot about his own future.

The other Blood Robe Foundation Building cultivators also had the same idea, they were all actively seeking benefits from the Grotto-Heaven, so they were willing to follow Xuelingzi.

Otherwise, they would have long since run away. Who would want to associate with the brutal Xuelingzi?

When they heard Xuelingzi say that someone had brought the Qinglian Sword Order, many Blood Robe Foundation Building cultivators were not surprised but delighted.

Xuelingzi was also satisfied with their reaction and said, "Anyone who dares to come to the ruins at this time is definitely not an ordinary wandering cultivator. Set up the Earth Slaughter Great Formation properly, we must not let that person escape..."

The many Blood Robe Foundation Building cultivators all responded in unison.

Gao Xian, from above, could clearly see Xuelingzi and the others. Although he couldn't hear what they were saying, he could guess the general idea.

The blood-colored long banner in the hands of the Blood Spirit Child is what he fears the most. The aura within the long banner is extremely intense. Even from this distance, his heart instinctively tightens at the sight of it.

"It should be a third-grade magic weapon, or perhaps a third-grade magic treasure!"

Gao Xian actually doesn't pay much attention to this group of Foundation Building cultivators, including the Blood Spirit Child with a face resembling a skeleton. Although his cultivation is profound, and he even possesses mysterious eye techniques, his cultivation level is still inferior to Huo Lianshan.

If it weren't for his fear of that blood-colored long banner, Gao Xian would dare to directly confront them head-on.

But now he doesn't want to take risks, nor does he need to.

Gao Xian takes out the Wind and Moon Mirror. He still has 150,000 Human Dao Spiritual Lights.

After thinking for a moment, he invests all of these Human Dao Spiritual Lights into the Clone Technique.

In his opinion, the most important function of the two clones is the ability to switch places with the main body, which means they can help him withstand two fatal attacks.

The light of the Elemental Spirit that emerges during the Foundation Building stage resonates with the Clone Technique, making the Clone Technique his innate Divine Ability.

An innate Divine Ability means that the Clone Technique is extremely compatible with him, allowing for more precise control, faster activation, and less consumption...

By investing 150,000 Human Dao Spiritual Lights, he directly raises the Clone Technique to the level of Grandmaster Perfection.

Reaching the level of Grandmaster Perfection in any spell or secret technique means reaching the highest level.

Lan Jie emerges from the depths of the Wind and Moon Mirror. Her figure gracefully rotates and splits into two clones, demonstrating various wonderful uses of the Clone Technique.

Gao Xian doesn't need to learn, as he completely comprehends all the essence and variations of the Clone Technique.

With the Clone Technique at its maximum level, Gao Xian can control the clones without any stiffness, and he won't feel awkward because his consciousness and perspective are divided into three.

Controlling the two clones is as easy as controlling his own fingers.

Including using the clones to cast spells, they are no different from the main body. Moreover, both clones possess fifty percent of his main body's strength.

In terms of divine sense, mana, and physical abilities, the clones possess fifty percent of the main body's capabilities.

This is a tremendous improvement!

Gao Xian's divine sense currently has a radius of five hundred steps, which means fifty percent is two hundred and fifty steps, equivalent to the late stage of Foundation Building. The same goes for his physical abilities, which are also equivalent to the late stage of Foundation Building.

Equipping the clones with magic weapons and swords can further increase their combat power.

After considering it, Gao Xian picks a spare Qingfeng Sword from his storage bag. He doesn't know which unlucky Foundation Building cultivator left it for him. It is a second-grade medium-quality sword, with the blade adorned with two types of runes: Breaking Evil and Sharp Gold.

One of the clones takes the Qingfeng Sword and, with a flick of its sleeve, its body becomes ethereal and merges into the darkness.

Although the Shadowless Robe displayed by the clone only has fifty percent of the main body's power, it is enough to conceal its movements in this dark environment.

The other clone stays behind, while Gao Xian's main body stands in the center, forming a team with the two clones.

If someone has to die, it will be the clone in front. If he can't hold on, he will switch places with the clone behind and turn around to run. The tactic is perfect!

A group of Foundation Building cultivators from the Blood Slaughter Sect scattered in all directions. They had been exploring the underground ruins for a long time and had already made many arrangements.

Although the Old Demon Qiansha was dead, the Blood Slaughter Sect was still a sect and had left behind some assets.

The Earth Slaughter Great Formation had thirty-six formation flags, which had already been set up in different locations. However, they were a bit short on manpower, so they had to manually activate each formation flag in order to truly set the Earth Slaughter Great Formation in motion.

A Blood Robe Foundation Building cultivator floated forward along a dark passage. Suddenly, he sensed a fluctuation of divine sense in the darkness and instinctively released his protective qi.

Just then, the blazing invisible Yang Spear fell on the Blood Robe Foundation Building cultivator.

The Yang Spear posed little threat to ordinary Foundation Building cultivators, but its Yang energy was extremely restraining against demonic cultivators.

Although the Blood Robe Foundation Building cultivator released his protective qi, his soul was still stung by the invisible Yang Spear, causing his blood-colored protective qi to momentarily stagnate.

A light green sword light gracefully swept by, smoothly dispersing the blood-colored protective qi and separating the cultivator's neck.

With a melodious sword chant, the cultivator's head flew far away.

Blood Lingzi, hundreds of steps away, heard the sound of the sword chant. His eight gray-white pupils rolled out again in his eyes.

Through the Yin Demon Eyes, Blood Lingzi saw the flying head in the distance, the lingering agile sword light, and a blurry figure like a phantom.

"You've got some guts!"

A sinister smile appeared on Blood Lingzi's emaciated face. He wasn't afraid of the other party attacking him; he was afraid of the other party running away.

Did the person who dared to come and kill him really think his invisibility technique made him invincible? Ridiculous!

Blood Lingzi pointed forward and shouted, "The person is over there, let's attack together!"

Several Blood Robe Foundation Building cultivators beside him rushed forward upon hearing his words.

They couldn't actually see where the person was, so they could only release their protective blood slaughter qi and activate defensive magic tools to protect themselves.

A large expanse of crimson blood light tore through the darkness but couldn't illuminate any figures.

At the same time, Blood Lingzi silently recited an incantation and waved the Blood God Banner in his hand.

A crimson figure suddenly swelled and grew on the long banner, then leaped out from it.

In an instant, a chilling coldness spread in all directions.

The entire underground space on this level was sealed by forcibly activating the Earth Slaughter Formation, with invisible mana interweaving and converging to form a closed formation.

Under the suppression of the Earth Slaughter Formation, Gao Xian's Shadowless Robe trembled and fluctuated, completely exposing his body.

The blood demon nurtured by the Blood God Banner let out a howl and turned into a blood light, sweeping past several Blood Robe cultivators and fiercely descending towards Gao Xian!

Before the blood demon arrived, a surge of chilling and intense bloody aura had already surged forth, engulfing Gao Xian...

(There might be a slight delay for the second update, I'll do my best~)
