Chapter 872

After killing Junior Patriarch Long, Chen Yu's aura instantly weakened.

Junior Patriarch Long was completely different from the half-step Kings he had encountered before. As a descendant of the Devouring Blood Clan, his survivability was incomparably strong, far surpassing that of all the enemies Chen Yu had encountered before.

Junior Patriarch Long had been through a great battle and was injured. Even so, he was not killed by the Heaven-burning Demon Halberd head-on.

If not for the mysterious heart's suppressive ability against the Blood Clan, it was unknown whether he could have killed Junior Patriarch Long.

Chen Yu's consciousness sank into the mysterious heart's internal space.

There was no power of Junior Patriarch Long's bloodline here, which was also within Chen Yu's expectations.

When he absorbed the bloodline power of the Devouring Blood Clan's descendant or the progenitor's bloodline, the bloodline power would enter the boundless, desolate space after entering the mysterious heart.

Before, this space had been pitch-black, desolate, and deathly silent.

But now, the entire space was covered in a layer of pale red radiance that flickered rhythmically, as if it were breathing or a pulsating pulse.

Although Chen Yu did not directly reap any benefits, he could feel that the mysterious heart was gradually transforming.

For example, after the mysterious heart had absorbed the power of the Blood Clan's sacred object, Chen Yu could activate two bloodline powers at the same time, greatly increasing his battle prowess.

Whoosh!

The huge blood-colored crystal ball in the center of this space flew toward Chen Yu, emitting a violent blood Qi pressure that swept out in all directions like layers of tsunamis. It slammed into the walls of the blood crystal space, causing a series of loud bangs.

However, when this rich blood Qi attack reached Chen Yu, it turned from violent to gentle, and finally turned into a wisp of aura that was absorbed by the mysterious heart.

When the huge blood-colored crystal ball floated in front of Chen Yu …

Crack!

Cracks appeared on the blood crystal ball, which instantly spread to the entire sphere and finally shattered.

A drop of crystal-red blood transformed into a small snake and darted out from inside.

Liquefied Blood Spirit!

This drop of progenitor blood had a spiritual nature.

As the mysterious heart violently beat and the powerful suction force, this spiritual progenitor blood scuttled into Chen Yu's body.

The drop of blood entered the mysterious heart's space.

It turned back into a drop of blood and fell into the nothingness. It was as if it had merged with the entire space, stirring up a layer of red watery ripples that spread into the boundless distance.

Meanwhile.

As his heart beat, there seemed to be a warm stream of air spreading from his heart to Chen Yu's entire body.

At this moment, Chen Yu's body was undergoing a subtle transformation. His entire body was numb, and his injuries healed in an instant. His essence, Qi, and spirit were also gradually rising.

But after ten breaths of time, this change stopped.

Chen Yu had a strange feeling. His body seemed to have reached a bottleneck. Once he broke through, there would be a qualitative change.

"My cultivation base has also improved."

Chen Yu sensed his True Essence Sea, and shock appeared on his face.

Most Blood Tribe beings could increase their cultivation base by devouring the blood of experts.

Chen Yu didn't know any secret arts in this area, so he shouldn't have been able to do this.

Perhaps because this drop of progenitor blood was relatively recent, it was more active, and it contained the essence of Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi. Imperceptibly, it pushed Chen Yu's cultivation base forward.

After receiving the reward of the Bloodsucking Trial, Chen Yu's gaze landed on the broken blood crystal ball.

"This should be a blood essence crystal, but its quality is higher than the one I obtained before."

Chen Yu determined the value of this broken blood crystal ball.

Blood essence crystals were crystallized blood, and there might be other substances mixed within.

But no matter what, these things were extremely precious to the Blood Tribe. Not only could they be used for cultivation, but they could also be merged into artifact forging. They could even be dissolved and refined into blood brew.

Just as Chen Yu was collecting these high-quality blood essence crystals, he suddenly discovered that there seemed to be something else mixed in the middle of one of the large blood essence crystals.

"What is this?"

Chen Yu picked up this blood essence crystal and scanned it with his spiritual awareness.

It was a dark red viscous substance that emitted a faint fragrance of blood. With just a breath, Chen Yu felt the blood in his body surge, and he felt much more energetic.

"Could this be … Blood King Marrow?"

Chen Yu didn't dare to be sure.

After all, Blood King Marrow was extremely precious, and it was difficult to obtain even in the Blood Tribe.

Chen Yu had never seen a real Blood King Marrow before, but he had some understanding of it.

According to his judgment, the dark red viscous substance within this blood essence crystal was very likely the extremely precious Blood King Marrow.

Chen Yu immediately observed the other blood essence crystals and discovered many such substances.

"If this really is Blood King Marrow, then the formula that the Scarlet Flame King gave me … is settled."

Previously, when Chen Yu had obtained the "Heavenly Moon Blood Essence" formula from the Scarlet Flame King, he had thought that it would be too difficult to gather this formula. Coupled with the fact that he was busy, he didn't bother.

He didn't expect to obtain something suspected to be Blood King Marrow in the final stage of the Bloodsucking Trial.

"The Bloodsucking Trial this time around has far exceeded my expectations."

Chen Yu sighed.

He had originally planned to help Wei Shaozu win and fight for some benefits for himself.

Who would have thought that he would enter the third stage by accident?

Faced with the choice of life and death, Chen Yu would definitely choose survival. It was worth exposing his identity and killing Long Shaozu.

The Progenitor's Blood fell into his hands.

Unexpectedly, there was also Blood King Marrow in the container that contained the Progenitor's Blood.

This Bloodsucking Trial could be said to be very fruitful.

But the most important thing was, what should he do next?

The crime of killing a descendant of the Bloodsucking Clan was enough to sentence him to death!

"Do I have no choice but to leave the Blood Tribe?"

Chen Yu murmured.

He had an Azure Cloud Token in his hand, which could open a spatial tunnel to leave this place and head for the Azure Cloud Secret Realm.

…

The moment Chen Yu obtained the Progenitor's Blood, everyone in the Bloodsucking Secret Realm was teleported away.

One figure after another was teleported out of the large square.

"Who won?"

Young patriarch Gu looked dejected. He had failed in the first stage, and he had later found Venerable Bloodscale's corpse.

It was hard to imagine that Venerable Bloodscale had been killed by another young patriarch's follower at the beginning of the trial!

Fu Xuemei was probably the only one who could have done it. No one else could have done it.

That was why young patriarch Gu did not want Long Shaozu to win.

He looked around and saw young patriarch Wei.

Since the young patriarch had been teleported out with him, it was obvious that Long Shaozu had won and successfully entered the third stage.

Judging from the expression on the young patriarch's face, he was sure that he had lost to Long Shaozu.

This made young patriarch Gu even more resentful.

Young patriarch Wei also looked around and did not see Chen Yu.

"Looks like Long Shaozu killed him."

Young patriarch Wei sighed.

If he had been in the same situation in the third stage, he would have also killed his enemy's follower.

Although he had an inexplicable good impression of Chen Yu, the good impression had vanished with Chen Yu's death.

Long Shaozu was just a follower.

"The Blooddevouring Trial is over?"

"I wonder which junior patriarch won?"

The people in the Zhou Ring looked up at the sky above the square, their gazes landing on young patriarchs Wei, Gu, and the others.

"Where's Jin Yudong?"

Supremacy Icelike's eyes flashed with blood-red light.

He had already made preparations to capture Chen Yu the moment he was teleported out of the teleportation portal.

But Chen Yu had not appeared!

"Did he die in there?"

Supremacy Icelike was somewhat disappointed.

Not being able to capture Chen Yu with his own hands filled him with resentment that he could not vent.

Moreover, he could not obtain the astronomical bounty either.

"Looks like the fight between the three junior patriarchs is over."

"Young patriarch Long has won."

Many of the upper echelons of the Blood Tribe had come to a conclusion.

The descendants of the Blood Tribe had extraordinary status in the Blood Tribe. Many of the upper echelons present were more or less related to them.

Therefore, the Blooddevouring Trial affected the Blood Tribe in the Blood Sea Realm to a certain extent.

It was obvious that with young patriarch Long's victory, the Blood Tribe that had secretly supported him would rise with him in the future and surpass the other Blood Tribe members.

At this moment —

Buzz!

A thick blood qi burst out from the hole in the center of the square like a pillar of light, shooting into the sky and stirring up the blood-colored wind and clouds.

There was a strong spatial fluctuation within the blood-colored light pillar. It was clearly a teleportation light.

"Young patriarch Long is coming out."

"Young patriarch Long's foundation and the strength of his team are the strongest among the three junior patriarchs. He deserves his victory."

As the discussion went on, a figure appeared in the blood-colored light pillar.

"Welcome, young patriarch Long."

Many of the upper echelons of the Blood Tribe who were close to young patriarch Long slowly approached and congratulated him.

At this moment, the blood-colored light dissipated and a figure appeared.

"Who are you?"

The person who had congratulated young patriarch Long exclaimed.

This person wasn't young patriarch Long!

"I remember this person is young patriarch Wei's follower. Why didn't he teleport out with young patriarch Wei and Fu Xuemei?"

"Where's young patriarch Long?"

There was a commotion in the surroundings.

"Jin Yudong?"

Young patriarch Wei's eyes widened in disbelief. Jin Yudong wasn't killed by young patriarch Long?

What was going on?

"Hahaha, he's out!"

Not far away, Supremacy Icelike laughed loudly and soared into the sky, emitting an extremely cold intent.

He had thought that Chen Yu had died in the trial. He didn't expect Chen Yu to still be alive, just that he had come out a little late.

"Supremacy Icelike, what are you doing?"

One of the upper echelons noticed Supremacy Icelike's strange behavior and immediately asked.

Supremacy Icelike didn't answer and went straight for Chen Yu. He raised his palm and the red and blue light on it fluctuated, emitting a cold intent that plunged the surroundings into winter.

"Elder Zhong, stop!"

Young patriarch Wei shouted.

He didn't know what was going on with Supremacy Icelike, but he suddenly attacked his follower.

"Jin Yudong, your true identity is Chen Yu, right? You can hide it from others, but you can't hide it from me!"

Supremacy Icelike burst into laughter. He was less than ten feet away from Chen Yu and a chilling force froze Chen Yu, causing a layer of frost to form on his body!

"What? He's Chen Yu! "

"Chen Yu!"

Those two names were like a bomb that shocked everyone.

Although it was hard to believe, if Jin Yudong was really Chen Yu, he would receive a sky-high reward once he was captured.

Chen Yu looked at Supremacy Icelike and was a little surprised. He didn't expect that his true identity would be discovered by the other party.

"Chen Yu, surrender!"

Supremacy Icelike sneered and the aura of a half-step Star Condensation Realm pressed down like a tsunami.
