Nine Sun Dao Sword
Qing Cang's expression changed slightly. He groaned under the pressure and took a few steps back.
"Chief Steward!" Blood Demon cupped his hands together and said calmly.
The black-armored man was the chief steward of the Blood Refining Mansion, Cang Feng, who had knocked on the Blood Cauldron earlier. Cang Feng's gaze was extremely cold. He nodded slightly at Blood Demon before his gaze landed on Qing Cang.
"Qing Cang, aren't you a little too bold?
The Commander Battle has yet to begin and you've already acted on your own accord. Are you ignoring the rules of the Blood Refining Mansion? "Cang Feng's gaze was sharp as he said coldly.
Cold sweat broke out on Qing Cang's forehead. Cang Feng was the chief steward of the Blood Refining Mansion. His strength was unfathomable. It was said that he was a Heaven Defying Saint Stage expert.
Cang Feng was extremely loyal to Xue Hentian, so he was deeply trusted by Xue Hentian. In the Blood Refining Mansion, Cang Feng was second only to the Mansion Master.
Cang Feng was considered an influential figure in the Blood Refining Mansion. After all, he was Xue Hentian's favorite. Although his prestige was not as high as the First Commander's, his authority was above the First Commander's.
Qing Cang hurriedly cupped his hands together and said cautiously, "I wouldn't dare. Please calm down, Chief Steward!"
"This is a warning. There will be no next time. Before the Commander Battle, you are not allowed to fight. However, don't blame me for being merciless."
After Cang Feng finished speaking, he glanced at Zhuowen, who was behind Blood Demon. Then, he leaped up and landed beside the Blood Cauldron in the middle.
"Cang Feng's cultivation is extremely strong. He should be at the Initial Heaven Defying Saint Stage. He should be on par with Zhao Ke from the Prophet family who chased after you previously."
Zhuowen narrowed his eyes. Xiao Hei's solemn voice rang out in his mind.
Zhuo Wen nodded. His heart was filled with dread towards Cangfeng. Furthermore, the black clothed man that he had killed in the Peace Inn yesterday should have been sent by Cangfeng.
However, from the looks of it, Cang Feng probably didn't know that Zhuo Wen was the one who killed the black-clothed man.
Qing Cang coldly glared at the Blood Demon and Zhuowen, then walked to the side with his helpers. Obviously, he did not want to be near the Blood Demon and Zhuowen.
At this moment, more and more people gathered in the square. At the same time, they approached the edge of the square. Many armored generals brought their helpers to the edge of the square.
All the generals were filled with fighting spirit. Their eyes were filled with lofty aspirations. They rubbed their shoulders and rubbed their palms together. They all wanted to perform well in this battle.
If they could obtain the position of commander, it would be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for them.
"That's the third general, Yao Lian. His strength is not ordinary, and his helper is very powerful. He's actually from the Yang Sky Saint Realm?"
The Blood Demon looked around and suddenly pointed at a beautiful figure at the edge of the square as he spoke to Zhuowen. However, the Blood Demon frowned when he discovered that the helper beside Yao Lian was also in the Sun Sky Sacred Realm.
Generally speaking, the stronger a general was, the more powerful he would be able to find powerful helpers. After all, these generals had been in office for a long time and had a wide network.
However, the Blood Demon had only been in office for a few years, so the number of experts he knew was extremely limited. There was almost no one in the Sky Saint Realm.
Although there was a mysterious force behind him, the force behind him was hidden behind the scenes. It was impossible for them to send experts to help him. Zhuowen's arrival was undoubtedly timely for the Blood Demon.
Although Zhuowen's strength was not bad, he was only in the Arcane Shattering Saint Realm. Even if Zhuowen's strength was comparable to the Sky Moon Saint Realm, there was still a large gap between him and the helpers brought by the other generals.
Yao Lian's helper alone was in the Sun Sky Saint Realm. If the two of them worked together, the Blood Demon and Zhuowen would be in danger.
Not only Yao Lian, but the helper Qing Cang had brought was also in the Sun Sky Saint Realm.
This was also why everyone had a strange expression when they discovered that the helper brought by the Blood Demon was only in the Arcane Shattering Saint Realm.
The Blood General's name had been in the limelight recently. If the Blood General could also find a helper from the Sun Sky Saint Realm, he would have a very high chance of becoming the commander-in-chief this time.
But now, the helper he brought was too weak, so many martial artists around the square began to look down on the Blood General.
"Mo Guang is also here. This guy's helper is also in the Sun Sky Saint Realm."
The Blood Demon looked to the other side. There, a tall figure shrouded in black Qi slowly walked over. Beside him was another figure. This figure's aura was no weaker than Mo Guang's. He was also in the Sun Sky Saint Realm.
In addition, most of the helpers brought by the other generals were in the Sun Sky Saint Realm. As for those below the Sky Saint Realm, most of them were ranked very low. They had neither strength nor connections.
While the Blood Demon was sizing up the other generals, the other generals were also sizing up the Blood Demon. In particular, Zhuowen, who was beside the Blood Demon, attracted the most attention.
There was no other reason. Zhuowen's aura was only in the Arcane Shattering Saint Realm. Many martial artists were puzzled by the fact that such a low-level martial artist was the helper of the famous Blood General.
"It seems that the Blood General is a little confused this time. He actually found trash to be his helper."
"There's no other way. The Blood General has only been in office for a short time. How many people can he know? It's already very good that he could find a Arcane Shattering Saint Realm helper."
Many of the generals around began to talk, and many of them were mocking Zhuowen.
However, Zhuowen turned a deaf ear to them. His gaze fell on the Blood Cauldron. Just now, the drop of Yellow Spring hidden in his body had begun to throb, and the source of the throb was the Blood Cauldron in the square.
"The Massacre of the Yellow Springs Finger creates the Yellow Springs through slaughter, and the Yellow Springs is the final destination of the dead. This blood cauldron has slaughtered countless living beings because of its sacrifice. Does this mean that the resentment in the blood cauldron can be absorbed by the Yellow Springs and become a part of it?"
Zhuo Wen stared at the Blood Cauldron with a fiery look in his eyes. If his idea worked, he might be able to use the Blood Cauldron to raise the power of his Massacre of the Netherworld Finger to a new level.
Xiao Hei had once said that although the Killing Finger of Yellow Spring was an immortal technique with a very low threshold, its initial power was much weaker than ordinary immortal techniques. If he wanted to increase the power of the Killing Finger of Yellow Spring, he had to use slaughter to gather the water of the Yellow Spring to form the Yellow Spring.
The larger the Yellow Spring was, the more terrifying the power of the Killing Finger of Yellow Spring would be.
"A bunch of ignorant people. Brother Mu, when the Battle of the Commanders comes, we will definitely stun these frogs at the bottom of the well," Blood Devil said to Zhuowen with an ugly expression.
"Don't worry, they will be slapped in the face," Zhuowen said unhurriedly.
Looking at Zhuowen's appearance, Blood Devil could not help but recall the various scenes with Zhuowen in the past. He felt a chill in his heart. He knew very well how terrifying the willpower of the young man in front of him was and how deep his potential was. In the past, Blood Devil had witnessed the young man defeating the strong as the weak, and this time would not be an exception.
Thinking of this, Blood Devil was slightly relieved!
Whoosh!
An uproar suddenly attracted the attention of Blood Devil and the others. On the other side of the square, a handsome young man in rock armor slowly walked out from the crowd.
The young man had a white face and no beard. His black hair fluttered in the wind, and his whole body exuded a free and easy aura.
Strangely, when the young man walked over, the surrounding people consciously made way for him. It was as if the handsome young man in rock armor was a demon that everyone feared.
"It's the First General, Shi Lie!"
Blood Devil's eyes narrowed, and his voice was filled with dread as he muttered in a low voice.
Zhuowen's attention was on Shi Lie, and he nodded slightly. The aura that Shi Lie exuded was faintly discernible.
However, with Zhuowen's eyesight, he could vaguely feel that this faintly discernible aura was probably hiding a terrifying power like that of a wild beast.
Ding!
Suddenly, Cang Feng, who was standing beside Blood Cauldron, punched the cauldron again. His voice came from afar, "The Blood Refining Mansion has a total of 653 counties and 653 generals. At this moment, all the generals have arrived, and the six Commanders have also arrived. Now, I invite the Mansion Master to attend."
Cang Feng's voice resounded in the sky along with the sound of the cauldron. The originally noisy square suddenly quieted down, and everyone's eyes were filled with awe.
They knew that the Mansion Master of the Blood Refining Mansion was about to appear. He stood at the pinnacle of the Blood Refining Mansion and controlled the entire mansion's lifeline.
Rumble!
In the depths of the Blood Refining Mansion, a terrifying Sword Essence suddenly shot up into the sky, and a dazzling sun gradually appeared.
"Is that the sun?"
"No, that's not the sun. It's a treasured sword, a treasured sword that emits the light of the sun!"
The golden light was so dazzling that many people in the square squinted their eyes. They could barely see the treasured sword hidden in the golden light. Swoosh!
Swoosh! Swoosh!
The moment the blazing sun rose, another eight blazing suns rose from the depths of the Blood Refining Mansion.
At this moment, nine blazing suns rose into the sky. Surrounded by nine blazing suns, a majestic figure walked through the air. When he stepped out, it was as if he was stepping on the nine blazing suns. He looked like a god, a demon, a god.
"The Nine Suns Dao Sword, an Earthly Immortal Sacred Artifact!"
The First Commander, who was squinting, suddenly opened his eyes. His gaze fell on the nine blazing suns as he muttered to himself.
Swoosh!
Xue Hentian's speed was extremely fast. Stepping on the nine blazing suns, he swept to the only seat on the ninth level of the Duga in the eastern part of the square.
After that, Xue Hentian sat on his seat in a rather carefree manner. With a wave of his sleeve, the Nine Yang Dao Swords that had carried him all the way here let out nine sword cries. Shortly after, their radiance dimmed as Xue Hentian kept them in his sleeve.
Zhuowen's eyes lit up. With his eyesight, he was able to see that when Xue Hentian kept the Nine Yang Dao Sword, he secretly used an extremely powerful Saint Energy. It was as if he had forcefully kept the Nine Yang Dao Sword in his sleeve.
"Looks like Elder Fu was right. The Nine Yang Dao Sword does not belong to Xue Hentian. Otherwise, he would not have forcefully kept the Nine Yang Dao Sword when he was controlling it."
