Chapter 125: Chapter 125 Mysterious Water Moth Lotus
Eighteen years old and in the Qi Transformation Realm?
Members of the Three Sects, from the sect masters and elders to the multitude of disciples in the Organ Refining Stage, all wore expressions of shock.
“This means, doesn’t it, that Mei Changqing’s promotion to Guiyuan Realm is almost certain?”
Chen Yu felt a surge of astonishment in his heart.
Before.
When Zong Tianchen reached Qi Transformation Realm at the age of twenty-one, Chen Yu had felt immensely jealous, marveling at his incredible talent.
“Eighteen years old and in Qi Transformation Realm, indeed not bad…”
The Blood Robed Man muttered quietly to himself, while the dark-skinned youth standing behind him couldn’t help but reveal a hint of surprise.
“Ha ha ha… Yes! Changqing advanced to the Qi Transformation Realm in the past two months.”
Master Fu laughed heartily, his face filled with pride and satisfaction.
Upon hearing this, the senior members of the Three Sects turned grim.
“Qi Transformation Realm at eighteen? I don’t believe it! Those older than twenty can’t enter the Blood Burial Garden.”
Some of the elders did not believe it.
However, in the next moment.
Everyone saw Mei Changqing, like a black feather, treading through the void with a leisurely pace, entering the blood mist.
Swoosh!
With a flash of bloody light, Mei Changqing’s figure disappeared, entering the Blood Burial Heavenly Garden!
Afterward.
The remaining majority of disciples from the Three Sects Camp felt exceptionally heavy-hearted, with faces showing wariness and fear, vaguely hesitant.
With Mei Changqing’s cultivation level, it was likely a slaughter for any Organ Refining Stage disciples who encountered him; they were simply not at the same level.
However.
Most of them did not back down but gritted their teeth and entered the blood mist.
After all.
The Blood Burial Heavenly Garden was a once-in-a-century great opportunity, and this secret realm space had a certain area, so the chance of encountering someone was not too great.
“Listen, everyone. Disciples of the Three Sects entering the Blood Burial Garden are not allowed to kill each other; we must face the Bone Demon Palace together!”
At this time, the three Sect Masters communicated simultaneously, cautioning the disciples.
Opposite, Master Fu’s mouth curled with a hint of mockery.
“You go in too.”
The Blood Robed Man said to the dark-skinned youth “Lu Zhuo” beside him.
“Yes, sir.”
The dark-skinned youth gathered his energy under his feet and, with a “boom”, dashed into the blood vortex with astonishing force and speed.
Zoom! Whoosh whoosh!
A group of disciples soon entered the Blood Burial Garden.
Chen Yu discovered a phenomenon; very few people took their spirit pets or mounts with them. Could it be…
Are there age restrictions for spirit pets as well?
Chen Yu did not ponder further, instead, he quickly stored the Iron Moon Strange Insect inside the Light Silver Crystal Space within his heart.
Zip!
Chen Yu felt a lightness under his shoes as if he were a soaring swallow, drifting into the blood mist.
Before long.
About 150 disciples from the Three Sects and the Bone Demon Palace had all entered the blood mist.
“How long will this opening of the Blood Burial Heavenly Garden last?”
Master Fu asked in a low voice.
“A month should be no problem. Once this secret garden has absorbed all the fresh blood and souls nearby, it will detach from this void and expel any foreign creatures not native to its land,” replied the Blood Robed Man.
…
Swoosh!
As he passed through the blood mist in an instant, Chen Yu felt his body unnaturally heavy, followed by a wave of slight dizziness.
Then.
He felt as though he had stepped into a mess of mud, as his entire body sank down and a rank smell wafted from around him.
“Is this…”
Chen Yu was shocked to find his lower body sinking into blackish-brown mire.
A glance around.
The area was surprisingly a swamp extending for about a mile around, with hills and bushes visible nearby.
In the sky, a blood moon hung, emitting a sinister dark red glow.
The whole space was dim and desolate.
Realizing.
Chen Yu’s body was slowly sinking into the swamp. He was about to gather his energy to use a light-body martial technique to escape this area.
“Szzt!”
From the adjacent swamp mud, the sound of a moving foreign object came.
The next moment.
He felt his legs being entangled, and saw a spotted snake tail as thick as a baby’s fist coiling in the dirt.
“This luck is really bad!”
Chen Yu’s face looked distressed, but he was not panicky.
His “Copper Statue Technique” had reached a small success in strengthening the bones, and he had made recent progress; the flower-spotted strange snake in the swamp, although at the strength of the Organ Refining Stage, could not bite through him at all.
If it were any other ordinary Organ Refining Stage practitioner, they might have already been afflicted.
Looking for death!
Chen Yu exerted his power, pried the flower-spotted strange snake apart, and was just about to kill it.
Suddenly, he paused.
“With so many dangerous beings in this swamp, killing this snake might attract many more with the scent of blood.”
Chen Yu simply grasped the snake’s vital seven inches.
Teng!
Holding the flower-spotted giant snake, Chen Yu leaped out of the swamp, his body seemingly weightless as he tread lightly on the surface of the swamp mud.
Very soon.
Chen Yu reached the edge of the swamp mud, and a thicket appeared in front.
Clang! Ahh…
Faintly, from the thicket, the sounds of fighting and screams could be heard.
“Run! It’s the Bone Demon Palace’s True Disciple!”
A shriek came, along with footsteps rapidly approaching this way.
Bone Demon Palace’s True Disciple?
Chen Yu’s eyes flashed, the swamp was behind him, and now it was probably too late to hide, which would likely draw him into it.
Considering this.
He decided to re-submerge into the swamp; after all, the edge was only half a human’s height deep.
It was only a moment.
Chen Yu’s entire body was trapped in the swamp, only his nose and eyes exposed, hidden hastily by nearby rotting leaves.
In doing so,
he shifted from visibility to concealment, from passive to active, deciding whether to strike based on the situation.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
Just then, a man and a woman burst out from the bush, dressed as disciples of the Iron Sword Sect and the Water Moon Sect respectively.
Both were at the early to mid-stage of Refining Internal Organs.
“Thinking of running?”
Two figures, one tall and one short, leaped out from the bushes.
The tall man, exuding a fierce and vicious aura, was clad in a dark green battle armor, the fluctuations of his inner breath faintly reaching the late Stage of Organ Refining.
The other, a short youth with a collapsed nose and skewed eyes, was extremely ugly.
Yet his appearance made Chen Yu’s heart skip a beat.
“Demon Clown, Pang Tiancheng!”
Chen Yu recognized him at a glance; the aura emanating from this person was even more terrifying than that of the battle armored man from before.
He activated the “Concealing Qi Technique,” concealing his scent and using the swamp for cover.
“Ah, no, it’s a swamp!”
The male and female disciples from the Iron Sword Sect and Water Moon Sect, faced with a swamp in front of the bush, were filled with despair.
A swamp unconsciously greatly limited their speed of escape and offered a wide field of view.
“Die!”
The man from Bone Demon Palace in armor caught up with the Iron Sword Sect disciple, revealing a sinister smile.
Whoosh!
He slapped with his palm, sending out a faint black palm force shadow with an eerie and wild breath, striking the Iron Sword Sect disciple.
“Ah!”
The Iron Sword Sect disciple screamed in pain as his body fell into the swamp, spitting out a mouthful of blood.
Despite having a protective treasure, a rotting and bluish bloodstain appeared on the back of his neck, and the tyrannically evil inner breath further shook his organs.
Splurt!
The armored man took a large step forward, holding a sharp knife, and with a “swoosh,” decapitated the barely breathing Iron Sword Sect disciple.
Blood spattered!
The head of the Iron Sword Sect disciple hit the ground, his face frozen in terror.
At the same moment.
The female disciple from the Water Moon Sect screamed heart-wrenchingly.
Out of the corner of his eye, Chen Yu drew a sharp breath.
He saw.
The pretty female disciple from the Water Moon Sect was pinned beside the swamp by Demon Clown, who gruesomely tore off her arms, legs, and then gouged out her eyes…
“Ah…”
The pretty woman from the Water Moon Sect fell into a pool of blood, her body broken beyond recognition.
“This person really deserves a thousand deaths!”
Chen Yu felt a chill in his heart, witnessing such cruelty for the first time, almost driven to attack.
But he managed to stay calm.
He had long heard of the infamous Demon Clown, ranked first on the beheading list with extremely cruel methods.
Zong Tianchen had failed to kill him with a team before advancing to Qi Transformation Realm.
Not to mention the Demon Clown.
The man in armor beside him was even stronger than Shangguan Qi, ranking among the top six in the Bone Demon Palace!
Together, the two were virtually invincible below the Qi Transformation Realm!
“Brother Pang, there are two disciples from our palace approaching nearby.”
The armored man held a special bone token.
Huh?
At the same time, Chen Yu felt a slight vibration from the token he carried close to him.
“Could it be that a fellow disciple from Yunyue Sect is approaching?”
Chen Yu was worried rather than pleased.
Ordinary disciples, even true disciples, were insignificant in front of Demon Clown and his accomplice.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
At that moment, two disciples from Bone Demon Palace, a man and a woman, rushed from the swamp and the distant hills.
“Brother Pang!”
Upon seeing Demon Clown, the two Bone Demon Palace disciples shuddered and hastily greeted him.
These two were at the mid-stage and early stage of Refining, respectively.
Thus,
the Bone Demon Palace formed a small team of four with Demon Clown as the leader.
Chen Yu’s heart sank.
He wasn’t worried about his safety; using the swamp for cover, combined with the Concealing Qi Technique, even someone at the Qi Transformation Realm would find it difficult to detect him without careful investigation.
What really worried him was the reaction of the token, indicating that disciples from Yunyue Sect were approaching.
“Who exactly is approaching…”
Chen Yu sighed internally.
Gurgle! Gurgle!
Suddenly, weird noises came from the corpse of the Water Moon Sect disciple.
Crash!
The swamp churned and splashed, and a massive creature violently surged out from it, its body three to four zhang long, covered in black scales, opening its huge maw to swallow the remnants of the Water Moon Sect disciple.
It was a Black-Scaled Giant Crocodile, emitting a terrifying ferocious aura.
Chen Yu felt this crocodile’s presence was close to the Qi Transformation Realm lizard he had encountered in Ancient Moon Well.
“It’s a Black-Scaled Ferocious Crocodile!”
Demon Clown and the armored man exchanged glances, their expressions cautious.
“This crocodile’s combat strength is nearly at Qi Transformation Realm. Its scales are impervious to water and fire, immune to ordinary treasures. This one seems about to step into postnatal Qi Transformation…”
The armored man said.
The four from Demon Clown immediately retreated a distance, not wanting to provoke the crocodile unnecessarily.
The Black-Scaled Ferocious Crocodile did not give chase but swallowed another Iron Sword Sect disciple’s corpse, appearing very hungry.
Then,
it stirred up a patch of mud and wastewater, moving back and forth several dozen zhang in a certain area.
Finally,
the Black-Scaled Ferocious Crocodile settled next to a fan-sized dark lotus.
“Ah!”
A female disciple from Bone Demon Palace exclaimed, “This is the first time I’ve seen a lotus of this color.”
The dark lotus was deeper in color, blending with the swamp. Its petals bore faint dark water patterns, and at the center of the petals was a dark lotus pod.
If not for the presence of the crocodile, it would have been difficult to spot.
“Mysterious Water Moth Lotus!”
Demon Clown and the armored man, after taking a closer look, simultaneously revealed expressions of ecstasy.
