Chapter 523: Chapter 19 Blood Demon Sect Ling Xuedu

Yin Demon Sect Headquarters.

In a valley filled with birdsong and the fragrance of flowers, a pitch-black hall stood silently, its stark contrast emphasizing the authoritarian and domineering presence of the Yin Demon Sect Master.

Inside the great hall, the Sect Master of the Yin Demon Sect, the strongest woman in the world, Yin Tianxia, sat at the end of the hall on a throne, her posture simple yet straight. Her bearing exuded firmness and domination.

Beside her, Yun Wuyue stood quietly, her aura cool, frosty, with a hint of invisible sharpness and solemnity, making her seem even more fierce.

The slight luminescence in her eyes suggested that during this period, Yun Wuyue’s strength had seen significant improvement.

"Chattering chattering chattering..."

It sounded like the flowing of a stream, which soon transformed into the roaring of a great river. A streak of bright red blood shot through the air.

After entering the grand hall, the blood revealed itself to be something akin to a narrow yet expansive Blood River. The Blood River flowed and spiraled in mid-air, sometimes sinister and soft, other times robust and spirited, its nature switching between the unstoppable sounds of rushing water resonating in the air, entering the ears of those present.

This seemingly subtle sound of flowing water caused Yun Wuyue’s blood to circulate faster, as if wanting to burst out of her body and drain completely into the Blood River, an utterly eerie phenomenon.

"——"

It was silent yet seemed as though a flash of brilliance passed by. In a blink, Yun Wuyue severed the bizarre connection between the Blood River and her own blood with a flash of moonlight-like sharpness.

"Eh?" A light sound of surprise emerged from within the Blood River.

Then, the Blood River swirled and circled back, revealing a sinister young man dressed in blood-red clothes and hair, his eyes appeared pure yet murky, looking at Yun Wuyue, who stood quietly by Yin Tianxia’s side with interest.

"Sect Master Yin truly deserves to be the number one in the Demon Path today, producing such a talented disciple. Your disciple is merely at the Divine Origin Realm, yet she managed to sever the pull of the Blood River, truly marvelous."

The blood-colored youth assessed Yun Wuyue for a moment and then exclaimed in admiration.

"The current number one in the Demon Path might just be a name unworthy of its reputation. If the three great forces of the Demon Path do not emerge, who in the world would dare to claim such a title."

Yet those indifferent words carried a peculiar power of persuasion. Although the title of number one in the Demon Path was being denied, to the blood-colored youth, it felt as though he was indeed facing the number one in the Demon Path.

The blood-colored youth couldn’t help but show a hint of respect...

’Not good,’ a flash of lightning crossed his mind, the admiration on the blood-colored youth’s face disappeared instantaneously, ’He’s been tricked.’

As a Blood Demon Sect warrior who’d cultivated through bloodshed, the blood-colored youth was not one to admire others readily, not even the Blood Demon Sect Leader could easily command such respect from such a warrior.

The fact that he showed respect to Yin Tianxia was not out of genuine feeling but because his spirit was unknowingly influenced by Yin Tianxia, leading him to submit.

This was not the result of some bizarre spirit secret technique but rather due to the overwhelming difference in strength between them.

In other words, Yin Tianxia’s strength far surpassed that of the blood-colored youth, almost reaching a state of utter domination.

"The preeminent figure of the Demon Path today, even if not entirely accurate, Yin Tianxia would still be a strong contender for that title."

The youthful Blood Demon Sect member couldn’t hide the palpitations in his heart. Initially, he had underestimated the once unremarkable Yin Demon Sect Master, but now he realized that this disdain might very well herald his own death.

He had previously been dismissive and entered the hall with bravado, only to receive a minor reprimand. If he didn’t learn his lesson, this minor reprimand could very well turn into a major one. Considering the domineering nature of the Yin Demon Sect Master, it was even possible that he would be executed to set an example.

"Blood Demon Sect’s Ling Xuedu pays respects to Yin Sect Master," Ling Xuedu formally greeted.

"Hmm," Yin Tianxia lightly tapped the armrest of his throne and said, "Is the Blood Demon Sect well-prepared?"

"We are fully prepared, just waiting for the right moment to make our re-emergence and strike back," Ling Xuedu confidently replied.

"I hope so."

Yin Tianxia’s tone remained indifferent, but Ling Xuedu dared not show any dissatisfaction.

"After the battle starts, I want the head of Yin Mei Hall Master Mu Xiuxiang. You must use all means to force Mu Xiuxiang out of hiding, sparing no expense."

"This..." Ling Xuedu hesitated, "Sect Master Yin, Mu Xiuxiang is a top figure in the Heavenly Demon Palace. Targeting her might draw us into a relentless fight with the Heavenly Demon Palace, giving those on the Righteous Path a huge advantage."

A relentless fight meant an all-out death battle. The Heavenly Demon Palace had stood in the world for nearly ten thousand years, having been established even before the rise of the Demon Path, and is one of the original sources of the Demon Path.

Although no Heavenly Demon had emerged from the palace since the First Generation Sky Demon, the nearly ten thousand years of heritage had proven the Heavenly Demon Palace’s qualification and confidence as a source of the Demon Path.

To eradicate such a deeply rooted sect required a coalition like that from a thousand years ago—Righteous Path and the court combined, strangling the Blood Demon Sect. Otherwise, destroying the Heavenly Demon Palace would be extremely difficult.

The Blood Demon Sect’s resurgence was not to engage in a fight to the death with the Heavenly Demon Palace, but to demonstrate their own strength and to share the world of the Demon Path with the Heavenly Demon Palace, each ruling their half.

"I am merely informing you, not suggesting," Yin Tianxia stopped tapping the throne, his fingertip halted suddenly; an almost tangible aura abruptly enveloped Ling Xuedu, pressing sternly on his heart.

’So powerful...extremely powerful...’ Ling Xuedu felt a chill in his heart, as if his heart was fiercely grasped, a sense of impending death lingered, hard to dispel.

Though he had mastered the Martial Arts Divine to develop the Blood God Immortal Body, and his heart was no longer a weak spot, yet, the feeling that surged in his heart was a fatal intuition.

The gap in strength was just too vast.

The Heavenly List and the Earthly List were not ranked according to the level of fame or battle achievements in the worldly society, but calculated directly by the Fate Altar using the Heavenly Mechanism Technique.

Earthly List experts were calculated by the Master of Heavenly Mechanism from the Fate Altar, almost without fail. The Heavenly List, however, was personally calculated by Elder Shiming, the World’s Number One proponent of the Heavenly Mechanism Divination Skill. Unless someone deliberately obscured the Heavenly Mechanism, making even Elder Shiming unable to discern their strength, in the Central Plains, this Heavenly List was the most authoritative ranking.

Those capable of obscuring the Heavenly Mechanism to the extent that even Elder Shiming cannot predict, in today’s world, are certainly no more than a handful. Thus, even including those Supreme warriors not listed, Yin Tianxia could be ranked among the top twenty warriors in the entire world.

The gap between these top twenty and Ling Xuedu was despairingly vast.

At least after truly witnessing the might of Yin Tianxia, Ling Xuedu consciously realized his own lack of authority to question her power.
