Chapter 1549: Chapter Thirty-Five: Negotiating with a Tiger for Its Skin Chapter 1549: Chapter Thirty-Five: Negotiating with a Tiger for Its Skin For Tang Luo at this moment, dealing with seven Heavenly Demons drained of their vital energy was far from challenging, but for Chuanyuan’s Wind Media, which had sustained great devastation from the Heavenly Demons, the scene before them was nothing short of miraculous.

Even the great clans, and institutions like the Evil King Palace and Wuji Mansion, who found themselves helpless against the eight Heavenly Demons, appeared utterly powerless before the Void Grandmaster, like mere children.

Neutral members of Wind Media were naturally overjoyed, believing they had encountered their savior, yet the Wind Media affiliated with aristocratic families and the same sects, while joyful, felt a certain gravity in their hearts as well.

The combat power the Void Grandmaster had displayed in Lin Chuan was simply beyond imagination.

From the moment he detected the anomaly in the heavens and earth to his relentless rush to the scene, no more than a quarter of an hour had passed. Yet what they saw were the once formidable eight Heavenly Demons being reduced to blood mist exploding everywhere.

How could such a sight not shock and awe the onlookers, knowing that such a monster lurked behind the concerted effort to defeat Tang Luo? Who could remain unconcerned?

“Quick, hurry back and report this intelligence to our family (sect)!”

Many Wind Media scouts departed even more swiftly than they had arrived, while others wished to catch up with the Void Grandmaster to inquire about the reason for the battle. However, relying solely on their Escape Techniques, how could they possibly catch up to that dazzling Black Light? They could only watch helplessly as Tang Luo disappeared on the borders of Lin Chuan.

…

“Xiehe’s number one Spiritual Body, the strongest master of Longzhou.”

“Battled eight Heavenly Demons alone, single-handedly extinguishing the catastrophe.”

“The flawless Void Battle Body, the invincible Void Grandmaster.”

As the Wind Media Organization spread the word of what they “witnessed” with their own eyes in the great battle at Lin Chuan, Xiehe was once again plunged into a storm of excitement.

The combat strength of the eight Heavenly Demons had been proven through one ferocious battle after another; they possessed genuine mastery of combat. Considering their immortality, no master would dare to claim an easy victory over them.

Because of the nature of the Blood Fiend, even a touch could burrow into the bones like a maggot, specifically breaking down various Spiritual Bodies, to say nothing of the Heavenly Demons’ unique forbidden techniques. Ordinary masters struggled to fight one-on-one, let alone taking on eight by themselves.

Even the grand master from Wuji Mansion, Tong Zhenyu, once stated that even with all his trump cards, against such powerful adversaries as the Heavenly Demons, facing two at once would be his limit and inevitable defeat.

If a sect expressed such a stance, for an aristocratic family’s master to ensure victory over the Heavenly Demons, at least two would need to face one. Only the exceptional among them had the ability to match one on their own.

By such reckoning, a Void Grandmaster who could annihilate the Eight Great Sky Demons single-handedly had combat prowess that could rival that of four grandmasters born from sects, or even eight aristocratic family masters, right?

The Wind Media Agency, devoid of martial arts knowledge, could only adopt such a simplistic calculation to measure the strength of a warrior, and to support this feeble methodology, they even brought out Tang Luo’s past battle achievements as evidence.

This included the Void Grandmaster overwhelming two masters from the Evil King Palace single-handedly, the Evil King Palace’s masters along with four grand masters from great clans ambushing Tang Luo only to have one killed, and then not showing any signs of defeat when pursued by seven grandmasters from sects…

As Tang Luo’s various battle achievements came to light, along with the deliberate praise from the Lin Chuan Wind Media, the title of Longzhou’s number one master was thus placed upon Tang Luo’s head.

And to the surprise of many, not a single voice arose in opposition, not even the masters from the Evil King Palace, who only sourly remarked, “Tang Luo’s victory over the eight Heavenly Demons is merely due to the Void Spiritual Body’s immunity to Blood Fiend. What’s so brilliant about that?”

What’s so brilliant?

Isn’t being unafraid of Blood Fiend brilliant enough!?

Suddenly, Longzhou was swept up in a fervor to pursue Void Energy Body Refinement, as if by discovering the methods to form a Void Body, they could become the next Void Grandmaster.

If it were only the aristocratic families fervently delving into it, then the Void Spiritual Body might remain merely a temporary trend. However, as the sects also began to divert resources into research, this thoroughly ignited the passion of all the clans throughout Longzhou.

In their attempts to keep pace with the sects, the aristocratic clans did not know how much effort they had put forth, but in such matters of martial research, when the direction is misguided, sometimes progressing means regressing.

Yet now the performance of the Void Grandmaster and the actions of these sects clearly told them they were on the correct path.

The aristocratic families, who used to pour resources into pursuits with slim hopes, now saw a clear path, and the fervor they showed was beyond what outsiders could comprehend.

…

Lin Chuan Plain, Underground River

Blood God World Portal

Following the traces of the True Spirit, Tang Luo finally arrived at this river that led straight to the underworld… perhaps it’s more apt to call it the Blood River now.

As massive amounts of Evil Qi sank, this river that was once clear and pure had been completely tainted, oozing a disgustingly foul smell everywhere.

And the sacred crimson gate amidst the river, exuding an indescribable holy aura, was incessantly spewing out the most filthy, vile red liquid.

This bizarre and eerie scene was enough to send chills down even Tang Luo’s spine, a formidable warrior himself.

“You dare show your face before the Ancestor!” roared the “Blood God Sovereign” from within the sacred crimson gate. Then the continually flowing red liquid transformed into claws, the Underground Blood River as if summoned, churned out surging waves, lashing out with blood spikes in unison with the crimson claws towards Tang Luo.

“Lord Blood God, please calm your anger!”

Tang Luo’s face bore a bitter smile as he retreated explosively, raising his hand to unfurl a black and white vortex, crushing the blood claws and spikes into dust. After getting out of reach from the attack of the crimson gate, he continuously pleaded, “All this Blood Fiend is the essence of the Spirit Realm, why waste it on a junior like me? Wouldn’t it be better to use it to resurrect those eight Heavenly Demons?”

“You dare mention that!?”

The tyrannical roar came from inside the crimson gate, “Murdering seven Blood Rakshasas is forgivable, but to lay a hand on Chadi is a provocation towards me! Prepare to be endlessly pursued by the Twelve Blood Rakshasas!”
