Sacred City.
The last ritual of worshipping the ancestors would take four hours to complete.
All the geniuses of the Blood Race would be teleported out after that.
Everyone in the Blood Race was uneasy.
The Blood Race wasn't in a good situation. The Great Prophet's divination made them feel a sense of danger.
All of them hoped that a genius of the Blood Race would obtain a "great fortune" in the fortune blood ground and soar into the sky.
The one they had the most hope for was obviously Young Ancestor Yu, who was a six-star King.
"If Young Ancestor Yu can use the fortune in the fortune blood ground to become a seven-star King and break through to the Mysterious Dark realm, the Blood Race will have a powerful Thearch or even a God in the future!" In that case, the Blood Kindred will have an extremely powerful Overlord in the future, or even a god! "
The statue of the Blood Devouring Race at the center of the altar started to display all kinds of unusual phenomena.
At first, the upper echelons of the Blood Race thought it was a good sign.
But as time passed, the phenomena on the statue became more frequent and intense.
However, as time passed, the Blood Devouring Race statues appeared even more frequently and intensely. This was very strange.
"What on earth happened in the Blood Fortune Land?"
"Great Prophet, can you divine it?"
An upper echelon of the Blood Race asked.
"Great Prophet, can you divine it?"
The Great Prophet's eyes were deep as he fell into thought.
"In fact, the moment the fortune blood ground opened, I sensed that the key to the survival of the Blood Race had been confirmed."
The Great Prophet said his speculation.
"What? What is the 'key'? "
The upper echelon was shocked.
The key the Great Prophet had mentioned was related to the survival of the Blood Race, but they knew nothing about it.
"Maybe it has something to do with the abnormalities in the fortune blood ground."
An elder guessed.
At this moment, a Celestial Condensation King's bodyguard flew over and respectfully bowed towards the various high-level figures. He then turned to the Elder presiding over the ceremony and spoke, "Elder, during the Battle Sacrifice, the last Blood Clan genius to die, the cause of his death is a bit strange."
"What's strange?"
The Blood Race elder asked casually.
The Blood Race that had died before the ceremony had been burned to ashes by the Blood Glazed Flames.
Only the body of the last Blood Race genius was preserved after the ceremony.
"When I examined the corpse, I discovered that the true cause of death of this Blood Clan genius was a shattered heart."
The guard reported truthfully.
"What's strange about that?"
Perhaps the prodigy's heart had been injured, and the injury had exploded and killed him. Or perhaps the opponent had used a secret technique like the Murderous Heart Mantra.
"This genius of the Blood Race died to the Murderous Heart Art, but he was a Five-Star King. Based on the degree of damage to his heart, he had to be at least at the half-step Profound Nether realm to have used the Murderous Heart Art …"
The guard continued.
At this moment, the elder of the Blood Tribe frowned and began to pay attention to this matter.
The power of a half-step Profound Nether Realm expert was roughly at this level when young patriarch Yu used a secret art.
However, Young Forefather Yu didn't know the Murderous Heart Sutra and the other geniuses on the altar couldn't do it either. Therefore, the death of the Blood Clan's genius was indeed strange.
Put yourself in his shoes.
Who would benefit the most from the death of this genius?
No matter how one looked at it, the one who benefited the most was the vampire who was about to be killed by Zheng Rong at the last moment.
"Passing the Battle Sacrifice at the peak of the late stage, this is unbelievable."
The vampire elder's eyes flickered with a dark light.
When the Great Prophet heard this conversation, he made some deductions and came to a conclusion. "This kid is hiding his true cultivation."
Hearing this, all the Blood race members were shocked.
The geniuses of the Blood race wanted to show off their skills at the Battle Sacrifice. Why would Zheng Ling hide his cultivation and pretend to be dead?
No matter what the result was, Zheng Ling might have some unspeakable secrets.
When they thought of the Blood Devouring Race statue, the expressions of the upper echelons of the Blood race became ugly.
Pfft!
The expression of the Great Prophet suddenly changed, and he coughed up a mouthful of blood. His eyes were filled with excitement. "It's him … it's him!"
When the Great Prophet had deliberately divined Chen Yu, he had finally seen a trace of fate, and he had paid a price for it.
"Zheng Ling is the child of the prophecy of the ancestor's awakening and the Eternal Descent?"
Many of the upper echelons found this hard to accept.
"Is this kid the lucky star of the Blood race or the bane of our race …?"
"No matter what, this kid's fate is tied to the Blood race. He must be in the hands of the Blood race. I suggest we open the Blood Fortune Ground again! "
"Seconded!"
The upper echelons of the Blood race sent everyone out of the Sacred City and temporarily sealed off the news.
"The Blood Fortune Ground is currently in an extremely unstable state. If we open it again, it will have a huge impact on the ground."
The array master had a worried expression after inspecting the ground.
"Is there no other way?"
The leader of the Blood race asked.
"There is. With the support of the Blood Devouring Race's bloodline power, we can open the Blood Fortune Ground again while minimizing the impact. However, the number of Blood race members entering can't be too high, and their cultivation can't be too high."
In the end, the Blood race decided to use this method.
They couldn't let Zheng Ling decide the fate of the Blood race. This kid had to be under the control of the Blood race.
The Blood race members entering the Blood Fortune Ground had to be at the Mysterious Nether realm. Only then could they control the situation.
The number of people could not exceed four.
When they picked out two early-stage Mysterious Nether realm Blood race members, the Great Prophet suddenly said, "Let me go."
"Great Prophet, your cultivation is at the mid-stage Mysterious Nether realm. I'm afraid it's not suitable …"
"But with the Great Prophet around, we might be able to change the fate of the Blood race."
"Two early-stage Mysterious Nether realm experts and the Great Prophet can give it a try."
…
At the Blood Fortune Ground …
Chen Yu went straight to the center, killing nonstop along the way.
"These blood monsters are crazy, and their eyes are filled with intense greed. Also, they're only coming for me. Could their goal be …"
Chen Yu gradually discovered some details and had some guesses.
The mysterious heart desired a certain treasure in the Blood Fortune Ground, and the other party also seemed to want the mysterious heart.
Crack!
The ground in front of him cracked, and a river of lava appeared.
A three-thousand-meter-long, grotesquely ugly blood-red dragon rushed out. As its body trembled, a layer of scorching blood-red light surged in all directions.
In an instant, the world turned scarlet and scorching. Chen Yu's blood seemed to be burning.
"Mystic Nether Sovereign Lord!"
Chen Yu stared at the dragon-blood monster.
Before coming to Blood God Island, he had killed Mysterious Nether realm experts. Although the process had been difficult, he had improved in all aspects during his secluded cultivation on Blood God Island. His cultivation had broken through to become an eight-star King.
With the cultivation of an eight-star King, Chen Yu felt that he would most likely win if he faced the Mystic Nether Sovereign Lord.
Furthermore, this was the Blood Fortune Ground. Chen Yu's body was filled with boundless energy, and he was in his strongest state.
Both sides attacked without saying a word.
The dragon-blood monster opened its mouth and spat out a scarlet wave of blood that swept in all directions, incinerating everything in its path.
Chen Yu let out a roar and gathered all the energy in his body into his fist.
Bang!
A blazing and magnificent fist light, accompanied by a blood-colored glazed flame, smashed forward with an unstoppable momentum.
Just as Chen Yu had expected, the transformation of his heart had given him a boost in combat power as he slaughtered his way here. This full-powered punch had already surpassed the early-stage Mysterious Nether realm.
Rumble!
Chen Yu's punch punched a giant hole in the scarlet wave of blood. Then, it struck the dragon-blood monster's head. Blood-red sparks flew everywhere, and a miserable shriek rang out.
In the Blood Fortune Ground, Chen Yu was constantly getting stronger with the help of the mysterious heart.
Although this power might dissipate in the end and he would return to his original state, it was enough for him to dominate the Blood Fortune Ground with this power.
Chen Yu didn't have time to waste on fighting. He had to finish the battle quickly and obtain what the mysterious heart desired.
Sky-Rending Imperial Fist!
He executed a killing move.
The Sky-Rending Imperial Fist caused the void to twist slightly. Chen Yu displayed the domineering aura of a Sovereign Lord. It was as if he had really become the Mystic Nether Sovereign Lord.
Bang!
Silver, yellow, and red lights intertwined with each other as they shot out. They distorted the surrounding void and created a powerful suction force before hitting the dragon-blood monster.
The Sky-Rending Imperial Fist tore open several spatial cracks.
A large hole appeared on the dragon-blood monster's head. Half of its head was gone.
However, the craziness and greed in the dragon-blood monster's eyes didn't change. As if it didn't know pain, it charged at Chen Yu.
Chen Yu wanted to finish the battle quickly. He attacked with all his strength.
With the help of the mysterious heart, he had the advantage. What was there to fear?
Peng! Peng! Peng!
Although Chen Yu had become even crazier than the Dragon Blood monster, the depths of his eyes remained calm throughout his simple and crude attacks and a violent storm of attacks.
A moment later.
The dragon-blood monster's body was full of holes. Boiling blood kept dripping down.
Chen Yu was also injured by the dragon-blood monster's violent attacks. His Advanced Immortal Body was quickly recovering.
"Die."
Chen Yu waved his White Tiger Sacred Claw and stabbed into the dragon-blood monster's body. He tore it in half.
In an instant, a finger-thick crimson light flew into Chen Yu's mysterious heart.
Compared to the primogenitor blood, killing the Mystic Nether Sovereign Lord blood monster was more rewarding.
Thump thump! Thump thump! Thump thump!
The mysterious heart beat strongly. Chen Yu finally felt the mysterious heart's excitement.
Furthermore, he suddenly felt like he was about to "transform."
This feeling wasn't very obvious, but Chen Yu was sure that the mysterious heart was close to the next transformation.
Whoosh!
He didn't stop and charged forward.
Along the way, he saw wisps of crimson light shooting out of the sky and entering the mysterious heart.
Occasionally, enemies would appear, but Chen Yu didn't show any mercy and killed them as fast as he could.
At a certain moment:
After killing a Mysterious Nether Sovereign blood monster, Chen Yu saw a huge pool of blood in the distant mountains. The blood inside was dark red and emitted an ancient aura of death.
Thump! Thump! Thump! Thump!
The mysterious heart beat rapidly, and the sound spread in all directions.
Chen Yu looked at the huge pool of blood. There was no movement on the surface, but it gave him an extremely dangerous feeling that he couldn't get close.
This was an instinctive feeling, as if Chen Yu couldn't resist the blood pool at all.
However, the mysterious heart's reaction was clearly directed at this huge pool of blood.
A powerful suction force spread. The mysterious heart wanted to directly absorb the power of the primogenitor blood in the pool of blood.
Gurgle!
The surface of the dark red pool of blood started to bubble and ripple.
"Eternal … Eternal … Heart … It's really you!"
A voice sounded intermittently as if it came from the depths of hell.
