Chapter 1166: Chapter 1167: Blood Demon Lord
After the tribulation, martial artists will fall into an extremely weak state, which is even more noticeable than during the tribulation itself.
Once the tribulation is over, it signifies a comprehensive transformation for the martial artist, and just after the transformation, they are at their weakest.
So many martial artists choose a place to hide after their tribulation, otherwise, they may very well be killed by their former enemies.
Jin Yuan and Qing Song clearly understood this, which is why they intervened directly to stop these people from entering.
Endless spiritual power clashed constantly.
"Jin Yuan? Qing Song? Do you two also intend to stop me?"
Suddenly, with an angry shout, a white-haired elder struck fiercely with a palm.
The power of this palm was immensely strong.
The combined efforts of Jin Yuan and Qing Song were forced back, causing them to spit blood.
A clearly visible hand seal was left on both of their chests.
The force of this palm nearly shattered Jin Yuan and Qing Song’s internal organs.
The combined strength of the two quasi-emperors was no match for a single strike from the white-haired elder; his power was truly astounding.
"Blood Demon Lord?"
"Damn it, why is this old demon here?"
Jin Yuan and Qing Song’s faces changed immediately.
They recognized the white-haired elder at a glance; he was indeed the Blood Demon Lord, a notorious and fearsome figure.
Though the Blood Demon Lord’s realm hadn’t reached true emperor, he had long been considered the peak of quasi-emperors, known as the first under true emperors.
The Blood Demon Lord had delayed his own tribulation to build his foundation.
Now encountering this Nine Heavens Chaos Tribulation had drawn even the Blood Demon Lord.
"Who would have thought you two wastes would end up as gatekeepers? Forget it, I’ll kill you two first!"
The Blood Demon Lord sneered at Jin Yuan and Qing Song, then attacked with a cruel laugh.
Although the blood essence of a quasi-emperor isn’t as valuable as that of a true emperor, it is still a rare treasure.
The Blood Demon Lord struck with two enormous blood hand seals, bombarding the air with a sky full of blood energy.
Casual strikes shook the heavens and earth, and the Blood Demon Lord’s power, though not of a true emperor, was close to that level.
"An old demon dares to kill my people?"
Just as the two blood hand seals were about to bombard Jin Yuan and Qing Song’s bodies, an enormous dragon claw suddenly appeared.
This War Dragon’s Claw manifested, sweeping across, shattering the two colossal blood hand seals into blood energy that dissipated in the air.
"The Blood Demon Lord’s blood hand seal was broken?"
"Such a formidable power to rival the Blood Demon Lord?"
"It seems this person is the one undergoing the tribulation!"
Amidst many discussions, a figure slowly emerged in front of Jin Yuan and Qing Song, and from Chu Fengmian’s palm, two heavenly spirit pills appeared, quickly being pointed towards Jin Yuan and Qing Song.
These two heavenly spirit pills, cracked open by Chu Fengmian’s hand, dissolved into pure spiritual power, merging into Jin Yuan and Qing Song’s bodies, starting to heal their injuries.
"Are you the one inside, undergoing the tribulation?"
The Blood Demon Lord glanced at Chu Fengmian, sneering as he spoke.
"Heavenly Realm, it seems you, this waste, overestimated yourself, attempting to forcefully overcome the true emperor tribulation, but failed. However, since you didn’t die, you must have some skills."
Seeing Chu Fengmian’s realm, the Blood Demon Lord was not surprised.
During tribulations, anything can happen: realms falling, memory loss, even physical destruction.
The Blood Demon Lord looked at Chu Fengmian, assuming he had failed the tribulation, fell in realm, and was merely at the Heavenly Realm now, with nothing spectacular.
"Blood Demon Lord, how about we join forces?"
Suddenly several quasi-emperors appeared beside the Blood Demon Lord.
They eyed the Blood Demon Lord warily, showing that this figure was not to be trifled with.
"Sun Yang?"
The Blood Demon Lord looked at the quasi-emperor named Sun Yang who spoke, sneering.
"What’s the deal?"
"It’s about this person; should we join forces to kill him? Blood Demon Lord, we know you are longing to find a way to break through to true emperor, and though he failed his true emperor tribulation, his memories may be of great use to you."
Sun Yang eyed the Blood Demon Lord, speaking as if Chu Fengmian was a lamb to be slaughtered.
"We don’t need his memories; we only need the blood essence in him. Killing him, the memories are yours, and the essence is ours, what do you think?"
"Anyway, aiming for true emperor, I’m not interested in his essence. Alright, today I’ll sell you Sun family a favor, but remember this favor must be repaid!"
The Blood Demon Lord pondered before answering.
"Alright, our Sun family owes you a favor!"
Sun Yang nodded in agreement.
"A bunch of wastes, debating how to meet their end?"
Suddenly, Chu Fengmian sneered, staring at the Blood Demon Lord and Sun Yang.
"Insolent, having failed the tribulation and still thinking you are something? Heavenly Realm, you’re but an insignificant being now, dare you still talk?"
Sun Yang’s gaze was fierce, like a wolf, staring at Chu Fengmian with greed, sneering.
"It seems you’re eager to die."
"Come on, no need for talk, just kill him!"
The Blood Demon Lord coldly shouted without any more words.
Suddenly, a surge of spiritual power blasted, transforming into an enormous blood hand seal, fiercely striking towards Chu Fengmian.
This blood hand seal, compared to the one that struck Jin Yuan and Qing Song, was many times more powerful.
The Blood Demon Lord had not shown his full strength before, but this was his true power.
Churning blood energy, this blood hand seal was at the center, swarming with blood energy, crashing towards Chu Fengmian.
"Master, be careful, the Blood Demon Lord’s strength is invincible among quasi-emperors!"
Jin Yuan, on the side, seeing the Blood Demon Lord attacking, his face turned pale.
The power of this palm, compared to before, was many times stronger.
It could be said that if the Blood Demon Lord had used his full strength then, Jin Yuan and Qing Song would have been dead already, this kind of power is truly invincible among quasi-emperors.
"Invincible among quasi-emperors?"
A mocking smile appeared on Chu Fengmian’s face.
If this had been before, perhaps Chu Fengmian would be somewhat apprehensive, but now?
"Break for me!"
