Chapter 329 - Bloodline Soul Summon

Qian Zhou\'s attack, empowered by a spiritual treasure, was formidable enough to force even low-level Heavenly Dipper Realm cultivators to evade. Yet, his sword aura crumbled under the force of Liu Wuxie\'s punch.

“Time to end this!” Liu Wuxie remained expressionless, maintaining his composure.

The gigantic star descended on Qian Zhou, making it tough for him to breathe and causing discomfort throughout his body. He did his best to break free, but an invisible force locked his feet in place, rendering him immobile and leaving him to be crushed by the descending star.

“This is impossible! You’re only in the fifth level of the True Core Realm. How can you possibly unleash such power?!” Qian Zhou roared like a wild beast as the sword aura released by his spiritual treasure gradually faded.

Shortly after, a mighty tidal wave slowly engulfed him. The faces of the four Azure Crimson Gate disciples standing far away turned pale because their comprehension had been overturned.

“How can mere fireflies compare to the light of the bright moon?” Liu Wuxie sneered, and the Primordial Astral Fist descended.

It felt like heaven and earth were going to collapse with a powerful shockwave spreading out. The surroundings within a few hundred meters of radius were leveled to the ground.

The heart of the battlefield exploded like a scorching sun, blinding everyone with a powerful heatwave evaporating the lakewater in the surrounding craters, causing steam to rise into the air.

The longsword in Qian Zhou’s hand fell to the ground, and he was blown to smithereens by Liu Wuxie’s punch. He was killed before he could even let out a scream.

After killing Qian Zhou, Liu Wuxie descended from mid-air and stood in the ruins. When he picked up the longsword, it was filled with spirituality, and Liu Wuxie observed that a master had forged it. Regardless of the material used or the quality, it was top-notch.

“Brat, you’re dead! Do you know who Senior Brother Qian is? He’s the illegitimate son of the Azure Crimson Gate’s outer grand elder!” The Azure Crimson Gate’s disciples screamed as if their tails had been stepped on.

Liu Wuxie had killed Qian Zhou, but the four forgot to run for their lives because they couldn’t accept this outcome.

“All of you will also die!” Liu Wuxie swept out with the spiritual treasure longsword, decapitating the four Azure Crimson Gate’s disciples. After he was done, he kept the longsword in his interspatial pouch.

“Junior Brother, are you alright?” Bai Lin and Tang Tian ran over with concern.

“This place isn’t safe. We must leave quickly!” The earlier battle had caused a considerable commotion, and several auras were approaching from afar. Thus, they had to leave quickly to avoid unnecessary trouble.

Performing their movement techniques, the group of three ran for an hour before stopping after they left the perimeter of Azure Mountain Lake.

Bai Lin and Tang Tian panted heavily, still shocked.

“I didn’t expect Qian Zhou to be the illegitimate son of the Azure Crimson Gate’s outer grand elder. This is going to be troublesome.” Tang Tian frowned. The cultivation of this outer grand elder was at least in the Heavenly Phase Realm, which was frightening.

“What are you afraid of? Who will know if we don’t say a thing?” Bai Lin was somewhat optimistic. He believed no one would disclose the truth about Qian Zhou’s death.

“Have you forgotten that the Azure Crimson Gate has a secret technique?” The concern on Tang Tian’s face grew deeper. He wasn’t worried about himself but Liu Wuxie.

“The Bloodline Soul Summon!” Bai Lin exclaimed. He had indeed forgotten about it because using this secret technique came at a significant cost.

“What’s the Bloodline Soul Summon?” This was Liu Wuxie’s first time hearing about it. They found a cave to rest for the day. There were so many missions; these couldn’t be completed within a day or two.

There were two array flags outside the cave to prevent anyone from intruding.

“This ancient secret technique can only be performed between those with the same bloodline,” Tang Tian explained. The Azure Crimson Gate possessed this secret technique, but the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion disdained practicing such insidious techniques that defied the natural order.

“The Bloodline Soul Summon requires three items: the blood of a virgin, the heart of an infant, and a wisp of the soul. When combined, this technique can summon the soul of the kin to learn who killed them.” Just the first two items were evil enough.

Liu Wuxie frowned because he detested such evil techniques. This process required collecting a virgin’s blood and an infant’s heart, placing them in a special container, and extracting a wisp of the soul to perform the secret technique.

After all, there were similarities between those who shared the same bloodline. To a certain degree, parents’ souls had a mysterious connection with their children.

Although Qian Zhou was dead, his father could use this secret technique to find out who killed him.

“Junior Brother Tang, stop scaring yourself. The price of performing this secret technique is too high, and it’s unlikely anyone would be willing to pay a hundred years of their cultivation for it.” Bai Lin interrupted Tang Tian because he didn’t want to put any pressure on Liu Wuxie.

Liu Wuxie didn’t think much about it after learning about the principles of the Bloodline Soul Summon. After all, Qian Zhou’s father was the Azure Crimson Gate’s outer grand elder. He might not even find the time to spare to come after him.

If Qian Zhou’s father sent someone ordinary, he would have nothing to fear because it wouldn’t be easy to kill him.

“Senior Brothers, here are two Snow Lotus Roots, one for each of you.” Liu Wuxie took out two Snow Lotus Roots from his interspatial pouch. The Snow Lotus Roots were priceless; Liu Wuxie had collected dozens of them on this trip.

Obtaining one Snow Lotus Root was the limit if it was someone else.

“How can we accept it? We did nothing to help!” Bai Lin and Tang Tian refused.

“Listen to me!” Since Liu Wuxie had offered them the roots, there must have been a good reason for it.

“Junior Brother, please speak!” The two sat upright with a solemn expression.

“I believe you two already know I’ve obtained the Snow Lotus Essence, but there’s only one, and it can’t be shared. These two Spring Lotus Roots are for you two.” Liu Wuxie was honest because there was only one Snow Lotus Essence, and he couldn’t share it with them.

He planned to enter seclusion, which meant he required someone to protect him. The Scarlet Sun Mountain Range was dangerous, and he was at risk of being killed during his breakthrough.

Thus, the two Snow Lotus Roots were his token of appreciation.

“Junior Brother, you’re being too formal with us. Only someone like you deserves the Snow Lotus Essence. Keep the Snow Lotus Roots, and it’s our honor to protect you.” Bai Lin stood up with an unhappy expression. He was upset that Liu Wuxie still considered them as outsiders.

With how Liu Wuxie could easily kill someone in the ninth level of the True Core Realm, he was destined to shine brightly in the future.

Bai Lin and Tang Tian had only ordinary talents, and their limit was becoming an inner disciple. They were already satisfied that Liu Wuxie considered them brothers.

“It’s precisely because I consider you two brothers, which is why I’m saying this. The Snow Lotus Roots aren’t anything special; I have collected many of them. I’ll leave you two to protect me during my seclusion.” Regardless if they agreed, Liu Wuxie shoved the Snow Lotus Roots into their hands.

Bai Lin and Tang Tian couldn’t refuse Liu Wuxie and had no choice but to accept. After that, they went outside the cave to stand guard for Liu Wuxie.

They took several array flags and set them in the surroundings. After all, it would be troublesome if someone more powerful than them came.

After making all the preparations, Liu Wuxie took out the Snow Lotus Essence. It was only the size of a fist, emitting a gentle glow, releasing rich energy seeping into Liu Wuxie’s body through his pores.

“What a treasure!” Liu Wuxie thought to himself. The Snow Lotus Essence was a treasure that required a thousand years to grow.

Liu Wuxie tossed the Snow Lotus Essence into the Sky Devouring Divine Cauldron, and demonic flames swiftly dissolved it. This refining speed was astonishing because an ordinary person would take ten days to half a month to refine it, but Liu Wuxie only took three breaths.

The pale green liquid flowed into the world in his dantian, and each drop weighed over five hundred kilograms.

The mysterious tree began to grow rapidly when the liquid was poured into the world in Liu Wuxie’s dantian. This was because the Snow Lotus Essence contained powerful wood-attribute energy. When absorbed into his dantian, it made the world greener.

Liu Wuxie had just made a breakthrough recently and was already going to make another breakthrough. The energies devoured from Qian Zhou were stored in the Sky Devouring Divine Cauldron for Liu Wuxie to make his breakthrough to the sixth level.

Intense pain came from Liu Wuxie’s meridians because they were being cleansed with true essence. The Desolate Devouring Art circulated by itself to devour the surrounding spiritual energy.

Bai Lin and Tang Tian raised their heads abruptly and could see spiritual energy forming into a cloud above them.

“Junior Brother Liu created such a terrifying phenomenon during his breakthrough?!”

The phenomenon Liu Wuxie had created back at Azure Mountain Lake was not as terrifying as this, and his breakthrough had been smooth.

“Junior Brother Liu’s talent is beyond our comprehension. We must stand guard for him and hope he gets promoted to an inner disciple in two months,” Bai Lin said quietly, careful not to disturb Liu Wuxie.

“The assessment to become an inner disciple is too difficult. Only the top ten outer disciples are eligible unless we reach the Heavenly Dipper Realm and advance to the inner sect automatically.” Tang Tian smiled bitterly. They had joined the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion two years ago, and their scores in the previous two assessments were poor, resulting in terrible placements.

If they still couldn’t advance into the inner sect, their chances of reaching the Heavenly Dipper Realm would decrease as they aged.

Liu Wuxie heard their conversation, as he wasn’t fully immersed in his cultivation. He kept a wisp of consciousness and was alert to monitor his surroundings. It wasn’t because he didn’t trust Bai Lin and Tang Tian, but caution was necessary no matter what.

Spiritual energy condensed into spiritual rain and fell into the cave. A vortex appeared above Liu Wuxie to devour the spiritual rain, and Liu Wuxie’s cultivation continued to rise. He had already reached the mid-phase of the sixth-level True Core Realm.

Liu Wuxie’s true essence began to rise rapidly, and the Heavenly Dao Book unfolded in Liu Wuxie’s soul sea to record the laws of the sixth level, and the content on it became even clearer.

It didn’t take long before all the spiritual energy within ten thousand meters of radius vanished. As Liu Wuxie continued to devour, all the spiritual energy within tens of thousands of meters gradually dried up.

This alarmed many people in the Scarlet Sun Mountain Range, who rushed over, believing that a treasure had emerged.
