Su Yuan was alone.
The Blood Pool had dried up.
All the blood had been absorbed.
He could be seen surrounded by terrifying blood energy.
He opened his blood-red eyes.
He muttered: “The blood energy is enough for me to break through to the seventh level of Body Tempering.”
“Now is the perfect opportunity to breakthrough!”
Su Yuan calmed himself and began to break through to the seventh level of Body Tempering.
As the breakthrough process began, the blood energy in his body surged like a raging tide.
A terrifying aura instantly enveloped the surroundings.
The dense blood energy, as if imbued with life, roared and rushed through his meridians.
Finally, it flowed towards his Dantian.
The blood energy furiously condensed in his Dantian, forming a vortex.
A blood-colored essence, the size of a grain of rice, slowly formed within the vortex, emitting an eerie red glow.
As time passed, the Blood Demon Essence continuously absorbed the blood energy, growing at a visible rate.
Not long after, the Blood Demon Essence grew to the size of a fingernail, and dazzling blood light soared into the sky.
Su Yuan opened his eyes.
He stood up, and a powerful aura emanated from him.
The Blood Demon Essence flowed slowly within him, as if it could unleash earth-shattering power at any moment.
The system’s voice rang out.
【Host has broken through to the seventh level of Body Tempering, reaching the late Body Tempering stage. Unlocked accompanying spells: Blood Demon True Body.
Spells: Blood Demon Power, Blood Refinement Great Technique, Blood Demon Rage effects upgraded.】
【Blood Demon True Body: One-time use, drains all Blood Demon Essence as power source.
Overall strength is enhanced once more. Speed and agility gain a temporary boost.
When receiving fatal damage, can consume one Blood Demon Essence to quickly recover from injuries.
When the Blood Demon Essence's energy is depleted, Blood Demon True Body will automatically deactivate.】
“Blood Demon True Body?”
“After activating, it actually uses all Blood Demon Essence as energy source! How powerful?!”
Su Yuan’s eyes widened in disbelief.
Because the new spell ability, Blood Demon True Body, was similar to Blood Demon Rage.
After activating Blood Demon Rage, one Blood Demon Essence would be used as the energy source.
When the energy of one Blood Demon Essence is depleted, it would consume another, until all the Blood Demon Essence's energy is exhausted.
The power it unleashed was enough to allow Su Yuan to severely injure an unsuspecting Foundation Establishment mid-stage cultivator, despite being only at the mid Body Tempering stage.
So, what kind of earth-shattering scene would unfold if Blood Demon True Body was activated?
A wave of uncontrollable excitement and anticipation surged through Su Yuan's heart.
At that moment.
Su Yuan suddenly sensed a target not far away, with blood energy far more abundant than his own.
This was a new ability unlocked after Blood Demon Power was upgraded.
He could sense the blood energy levels of all living beings within a certain range.
He also sensed the blood energy of Senior Brother Ling and the others.
“Something happened?”
Su Yuan frowned, and without hesitation, headed towards the Ancient Corpse King's location.
The Ancient Corpse King looked at the ants before him, who had already lost hope.
He smirked cruelly: “Alright, this game is over!”
He decided to stop playing around and put an end to this boring farce.
He took slow, heavy steps towards Wang Xian, each step carrying a rhythm of death.
At this moment, Wang Xian's eyes were filled with determination and defiance.
He knew that he was facing an almost unbeatable foe, but he refused to surrender.
“You want to kill me? You’re not good enough!”
“White Bone Transformation Art!”
He took a deep breath and spat out a mouthful of essence blood.
He turned pale, using all his strength to activate the White Bone Transformation Art.
In an instant, a strange aura surged from his body.
His bones cracked and began to grow and deform rapidly.
Wang Xian’s White Bone Transformation Art could store the essence blood of the 魔兽 he had devoured within his body.
Then he could transform his body into a 魔兽 and use its abilities.
If he cultivated to the peak, he could even fuse all the 魔兽 within him.
But Wang Xian's cultivation hadn't reached that point yet.
Now he was overdrawing his lifespan, forcibly fusing the powers of the 魔刃虎 and 厉山龟 he had devoured.
His body gradually transformed into a strange, white-boned beast.
The white-boned beast's body was tall and powerful, and its bones shimmered with a sinister cold light.
Its front claws were like sharp 魔刃, glinting with coldness, showcasing the attack traits of the 魔刃虎; its back was covered with a layer of turtle shell, as hard as iron, exuding a heavy aura, the defensive advantage of the 厉山龟.
The white-boned beast that Wang Xian transformed into roared thunderously, launching the first attack on the Ancient Corpse King.
It charged towards the Ancient Corpse King like lightning, its sharp front claws slashing fiercely towards the Ancient Corpse King's chest.
The Ancient Corpse King simply sneered and lightly raised his claw, effortlessly blocking the attack.
But the white-boned beast didn't back down. It used its agile body to constantly attack the Ancient Corpse King.
Sometimes it would swoop down from the air, sometimes it would attack from the side, each attack imbued with its desperate resolve.
The Ancient Corpse King was gradually enraged by the white-boned beast's attacks and started to get serious.
He abruptly swung his arm, and a black煞气, like a sharp sword, shot towards the white-boned beast.
The white-boned beast quickly dodged, but the煞气 still grazed its shoulder, leaving a deep wound.
The white-boned beast hissed in pain, but its attacks became even more frenzied.
It opened its bloody maw and spewed out a cloud of green poisonous mist, attempting to interfere with the Ancient Corpse King.
The Ancient Corpse King was unfazed. He opened his mouth, and a powerful suction force pulled all the poisonous mist into his belly.
The Ancient Corpse King roared, his aura skyrocketing.
He charged towards the white-boned beast, his speed like lightning.
The white-boned beast couldn’t dodge in time and was violently slammed away by the Ancient Corpse King, crashing heavily to the ground.
The Ancient Corpse King didn’t give the white-boned beast any chance to breathe. He quickly followed, raised his claw, and slammed it down hard towards the white-boned beast's head.
The white-boned beast did its best to raise its front claws to block, but the Ancient Corpse King's power was too great. Its front claws were instantly broken, bone fragments flying everywhere.
The white-boned beast let out a shrill cry, but it still wouldn't give up.
It struggled to get up and continue fighting.
Unfortunately, it was already severely injured, and coupled with its overstrained body, it struggled for a moment before completely passing out.
However, even with such a good opportunity, the Ancient Corpse King didn’t immediately kill Wang Xian.
He turned towards a passage.
He said: “Kid, how long do you want to watch?”
“Don’t you want to come out and play?”
Naturally, it was Su Yuan who was coming from the passage.
And he had been here for a long time, witnessing the entire battle between Wang Xian and the Ancient Corpse King.
Su Yuan hesitated.
He hesitated whether to directly use the system to teleport back to the world of anime and manga.
The Ancient Corpse King's strength made him suffocate.
Su Yuan knew that he was no match for him.
Using the system to escape would undoubtedly save his life.
But what then?
If the sect investigated, how would Su Yuan, the sole survivor, explain that the Foundation Establishment cultivators, whose realm and strength were all stronger than his, were all dead, and only he, a Body Tempering cultivator, was still alive? Wouldn’t that be suspicious?
If he didn't return to the sect, the Inner Dan Demon Gu would show that Su Yuan was alive but not in the sect, which would inevitably trigger the Inner Dan Demon Gu.
Su Yuan would still die.
The only way out now was to wait.
Wait for the sect elders to discover the situation here.
Maybe he could be saved.
Although hiding was disgraceful.
But if his senior brothers and sisters, who were stronger than him, couldn’t win, then it wouldn’t matter if he went out or not.
But he didn’t expect to be discovered.
His cultivation was not outstanding, only at the fourth level of Qi Refinement, and he was suppressing his strength as much as possible, making him no different from an ordinary person.
Su Yuan didn’t know how this monster discovered him.
