Chapter 440: On Top of the Immortal Kingdom (1)

Blood Lotus Sect.

Kuafu Mountain rumbled, causing the Blood Lotus Sect sect located on the mountain to shake and sway.

At this moment, the gates of the sect leader’s cave finally opened.

The leader of the Blood Lotus Sect stepped out at this moment.

He wore a red Daoist robe and held a shiny Message Jade Talisman in his hand.

His face, besides being gloomy, also had a hint of confusion.

"What has happened?"

The speculation of the Yunxiao Taoist Lord was not wrong.

The Blood Lotus Sect had long been trapped in a situation similar to that of the Yunxiao Taoist Lord.

The Cave Heaven Small World of the Blood Lotus Sect, Kuafu Mountain, had already fallen into the Jiu Province Great World, and the Supreme Elder had naturally passed away.

The current Blood Lotus Sect lacked the foundation to challenge other Immortal Gates.

Therefore, during these days, he had been in seclusion, trying to refine a magical treasure powerful enough to change the situation.

But this was clearly beyond the ability of a Soul Changing cultivator, resulting in slow progress, even when using treasures from the sect’s treasure house, coming from the small world beyond the sky.

The leader of the Blood Lotus Sect looked at the Message Jade Talisman in his hand.

Immortal Green Lotus guards the Green Lotus Immortal City, the closest city to the Baojian Valley known as the "between man and god" near the entrance to the Fairyland.

If there were foreign enemies attacking, Immortal Green Lotus would naturally be the first to know.

However, Taoist Lord Blood Lotus was puzzled by one more thing.

While he was refining treasures in seclusion, the Grand Elder of the sect should have been the one in charge…

He looked at the Message Jade Talisman in his hand.

With a flash of light, the figure of the Blood Lotus Sect Grand Elder appeared in front of the cave.

"Congratulations on coming out of seclusion, sect leader," the Grand Elder said in a low voice.

The Blood Lotus Taoist Lord looked down at him expressionlessly.

"I ask you, since I went into seclusion, has anything important happened in the sect?"

The Grand Elder also had no expression on his face:

"Nothing has happened."

As he spoke, underneath the Grand Elder’s aged face, there seemed to be some worm-like creature wriggling under the skin of his neck.

The Blood Lotus Taoist Lord narrowed his eyes.

In the next instant, without warning, a palm-sized lightning burst from his hand, shattering the upper body of the Grand Elder.

Flesh and blood scattered everywhere.

However, a mass resembling a foreign object sprouted in the pool of blood, curling and twisting…

The Taoist Lord’s eyes twitched slightly, and he stepped on the flesh bud beneath his foot before looking up at the sect in front of him.

Cultivators dressed in Daoist robes emerged one after another, densely packed like locusts…

…………………………..

Boom.

The Blood Flesh Divine Being with three heads and six arms took a step forward.

His steps shook the heavens and the earth, causing the ground to tremble with each step, stirring up a circle of dust.

Swish!

A figure landed heavily, causing the ground to collapse into a deep pit.

Qiao Mu stood up from the deep pit, coughing blood, his pale face gradually regaining color.

The Human Path Sutra is a slow and unwise way of cultivating blood and energy, building up strength like piling up dirt into a mountain.

The over 5,000-year-old Qiao Mu’s energy and blood in his body are as vast as the sea, similar to his True Strength.

What may be a serious injury for ordinary people, for him now just needs a short break to consume energy and blood. He can quickly recover by using the Shape Changing Skill to manipulate his body.

Although he can recover, there’s really not a good way to deal with the mountain-like Blood Flesh Divine Being in front of him.

"Darn it, there’s a new trick up my sleeve."

Qiao Mu used to think that Martial Saint had a deep and mysterious heart, possibly hiding a deadly move like Cherry Blossom Dance, but it turned out to be a three-stage move…

"Five hundred years, do you know how I spent those five hundred years?"

"I have been trying to decipher the Ex-human Transformation… and the three-stage moves changed completely?"

Qiao Mu kept muttering non-stop.

Perhaps Qiao Mu started talking to himself a lot after pursuing his ambitions for a long time without knowing where to start.

Talking nonsense at inappropriate times was just a way for Qiao Mu to distract himself.

While talking, he stood in front of the huge creature known as Blood Flesh Divine Being.

"In the end, it all comes down to this move."

Qiao Mu raised his King Qin Sword, infused with the grandeur of over five thousand years.

Today, he was a master in martial arts, but his most powerful move was still the unbeatable Heavenly Slashing Swordsmanship.

"That’s it, the end of the line for my skills."

Qiao Mu smirked slightly in a self-deprecating manner.

His smile faded, all his focus and energy went into swinging the sword forward:

"Amazing Sword skills!"

Clang!

With a sharp sword sound, the bright sword light left a long, narrow wound on the advancing Blood Flesh Divine Being that stretched for hundreds of meters.

Blood and flesh flew around, a crimson rain of blood fell with the wind, causing the Blood Flesh Divine Being to stagger.

However, the Blood Flesh Divine Being’s footsteps did not stop.

This time, he did not leave Qiao Mu with the leisure of waiting to die.

While the footsteps of the Blood Flesh Divine Being remained unchanged, the huge head on the left turned around, with hundreds and thousands of faces on it all chanting in unison:

"Great slashing!"

"Qiao Qiao, Qiao Qiao, Qiao Qiao, Qiao Qiao, Qiao Qiao, Qiao…"

"Come with me…"

"Side by side in battle!"

Like a huge mountain-like arm, it came through the air and grabbed the exhausted Qiao Mu who had sat down.

From all directions, waves of flesh and blood surged towards him. In an instant, Qiao Mu was suffocated, and his body was instantly engulfed.

The huge Blood Flesh Divine Being wriggled its whole body once again.

After Qiao Mu’s third body was swallowed up, the entire Blood Flesh Divine Being’s body swelled up again.

Then he continued to step forward, like the relentless Giant Kuafu, never stopping as he ran ahead.

A chaotic scene at the edge of the Finger Peak in the Green Lotus Immortal City.

Wu Qizheng picked up a page of silk book that had fallen on the ground and looked towards the huge Blood Flesh Divine Being approaching in the distance with Wu Jing by his side, feeling confused.

"Can even the old ancestors of the Qiao family, with their famous Heavenly Slashing Swordsmanship from Jiu Province, not stop Martial Saint?"

"Qiao Qijin… and two, no, three elders of the Qiao family, have now become part of this unstoppable Blood Flesh Divine Being."

Wu Jing seemed slightly calmer than Wu Qizheng, as he pointed to a distance:

"Look, Martial Saint’s transformed Blood Flesh Divine Being has reached the second Immortal City, White Lotus Immortal City."

Wu Qizheng looked towards the sound.

White Lotus Immortal City is located at a higher elevation than Green Lotus Immortal City.

Looking up, White Lotus Immortal City seemed to be among the white clouds, towering into the sky, appearing like a place connected to the heavens, a true immortal’s abode.

The architecture of White Lotus Immortal City is elegant and exquisite, mostly white with golden glass tile decorations, giving off a heavenly aura.

Compared to Green Lotus Immortal City, it exudes more sanctity, resembling a city of immortals in the clouds.

However, just as the Blood Flesh Divine Being was only one step away from the White Lotus Immortal City.

Boom!

The walls of the White Lotus Immortal City, untouched by attack, collapsed with a thunderous roar, bricks and stones wriggling like living creatures.

Wu Qizheng was initially puzzled, but when he looked closer, he saw that the stones of the city walls under the White Lotus Immortal City were clearly individuals twisted into stone in various strange poses.

As the Blood Flesh Divine Being approached, the city walls naturally collapsed, and one by one, the stony figures with fanatical expressions, their facial features gradually turning into those of Martial Saint, leaped into the body of the Blood Flesh Divine Being.

Wu Qizheng remained silent for a long time, not saying a word.

Nearby, Wu Jing explained:

"Within the Nine Immortal Cities of this fairyland, the Green Lotus Immortal City is the closest to the entrance of the fairyland, and it is also the city with the most mortal inhabitants."

"Having the most mortals actually means it’s where the pilgrims who have traveled thousands of miles gather."

"I have shown you what’s inside Green Lotus Immortal City before," Wu Jing continued.

"People who pray all day in the incense-filled temples, delicate flower vases in the Spirit Pool Courtyard, and the Thousand Soul Banner by the pool."

"Some have human forms in the front but lose them in the back, becoming mindless bodies to provide incense."

"But how far will the Blood Lotus Sect cultivators go with their methods?"

"Mortals from the Western Province who arrive from the outside world will face challenges in Green Lotus Immortal City, gradually advancing to higher levels of Immortal Cities, until they reach the peak at Blood Lotus Immortal City."

"The Nine Immortal Cities each have their own methods, which the cultivators of the Blood Lotus Sect have spent over forty years developing to extract incense."

"The higher you go, the more it is like this, as seen in the methods of White Lotus Immortal City," Wu Jing’s gaze fell on the collapsed walls of White Lotus Immortal City.

"Forget it, let’s not mention it."

"In this earthly realm under the sky, where is there truly a fairyland? The higher you go, the more it is like this."

"In several Immortal Cities above, besides mortal servants aiding the powerful, there are countless walking dead."

Wu Jing looked towards the distant Blood Flesh Divine Being.

This Blood Flesh Divine Being’s route is steadily climbing step by step.

Instead of capturing the Immortal City, they are climbing the Kuafu Divine Mountain towards its peak.

Passing through each Immortal City, countless Martial Saint flesh sprouts rushed out and gathered into a bloody tide.

The Blood Flesh Divine Being’s size kept increasing, gradually towering with a dominating presence.

"The calamity of the Human Demon has spread throughout this Blood Lotus Immortal Kingdom," continued Wu Jing.

"Next, they probably will follow the vague will of ‘strengthen oneself,’ gather the flesh sprouts of the Nine Immortal Cities to further empower themselves."

"Hence, the target of this Blood Flesh Divine Being should be the Blood Lotus Immortal City at the peak."

"No, that’s not right," Wu Qizheng shook his head in disagreement.

"Looking at the path of the Blood Flesh Divine Being… you have underestimated Martial Saint."
