Chapter 473 Abundant Harvest, Blood Sacrifice Array (Please Subscribe)

Faced with this desperate situation, True Monarch Hanhai was calmer than Yao Shichen.

He did not give up any hope. After briefly sensing the power contained within the Blood Transformation Nether Pill, he suddenly unleashed it.

“Boom!”

The Blood Transformation Nether Pill exploded on the blood-colored barrier.

The entire barrier trembled, and the originally dense blood color suddenly became thinner. The point where the pill struck made a “sizzling” sound, and countless drops of blood fell.

The surrounding monsters screamed in unison, both angry and terrified, as if they had encountered their natural enemy.

Before this, neither True Monarch Hanhai’s spells nor Yao Shichen’s fourth-tier trump card had ever caused such a change in them.

“Young friend Li, this pill is useful!”

True Monarch Hanhai’s spirits lifted, seeing hope of leaving this place.

Yao Shichen was stunned, staring at the point where the Blood Transformation Nether Pill exploded. Although he was puzzled, he quickly felt a surge of joy.

He had not expected this pill and was prepared to burn his lifespan and risk his life, but the effect of this pill greatly exceeded his expectations.

“What kind of pill is this?”

“Blood Transformation Nether Pill.”

Li Chang’an didn’t hide anything and truthfully revealed the pill’s name.

“I obtained this pill by chance in some ruins.”

“Fellow Daoist Li, do you have more Blood Transformation Nether Pills?”

Yao Shichen hurriedly asked.

Although this pill was effective, having only one wouldn’t be of much help to the overall situation.

True Monarch Hanhai also said, “Young friend Li, as long as you have ten Blood Transformation Nether Pills, I’m confident I can lead you out of here!”

“Ten pills?”

“Don’t you have any?”

True Monarch Hanhai’s heart sank, thinking that Li Chang’an didn’t have any more Blood Transformation Nether Pills.

Just then,

Li Chang’an handed him a storage bag.

“Senior, is this enough?”

True Monarch Hanhai took the storage bag, opened it, and a look of shock flashed across his face.

Inside the storage bag were hundreds of Blood Transformation Nether Pills!

Far exceeding the ten he had requested.

“Enough, more than enough!”

True Monarch Hanhai took a deep breath, the solemn expression on his face dissipating, replaced by a sense of relief.

Seeing this, Yao Shichen was somewhat puzzled. He leaned closer to take a look, and a look of shock appeared on his face.

“Fellow Daoist Li, you actually prepared so many Blood Transformation Nether Pills?”

“Better safe than sorry.”

Li Chang’an smiled.

The materials for Blood Transformation Nether Pills are very common, and the refining difficulty is not high.

He can refine more than ten pills in one batch.

He only gave a small portion to True Monarch Hanhai, and kept most of them for himself.

Then, True Monarch Hanhai waved his hand and threw out more than ten Blood Transformation Nether Pills.

With a series of explosions, all the Blood Transformation Nether Pills exploded at the same time, and the blood energy forming the barrier quickly dissolved, turning into patches of blood.

In the blink of an eye, the barrier had disappeared.

“Roar—”

The surrounding monsters roared angrily, their faces ferocious, and they turned into patches of blood-colored phantoms to attack.

True Monarch Hanhai’s expression was cold and stern, and he shouted.

“Slash!”

He did not use any magic, but threw out Blood Transformation Nether Pills again.

Dozens of Blood Transformation Nether Pills flew out, accurately hitting the monsters one by one.

Before the monsters could even reach the three, they began to melt away, their aura rapidly diminishing. The weakest of them instantly turned into blood.

A few stronger ones struggled to escape, but collapsed shortly after, also turning into blood.

And so it was.

Dozens of blood-qi monsters that had posed a life-or-death threat were easily killed by the Blood Transformation Nether Pill.

With the last monster’s demise, all screams ceased, and the entire underground world fell silent.

“So easily…”

True Monarch Hanhai looked around at the pools of blood, then down at his hands.

He hadn’t even had time to use any other methods before the monsters fell. Even with his composure, he found it unbelievable.   Yao Shichen felt the same way, even struggling to adapt to the sudden tranquility, momentarily thinking

he was dreaming.   After a moment, he regained his senses and realized the value of this pill.   His eyes burned as he stared at Li Chang’an, as if he were looking at a rare treasure, and he gripped Li Chang’an’s shoulders excitedly, asking questions.   ”Fellow Daoist Li, did you refine all these Blood Transformation Nether Pills yourself?”   ”Yes.”   Li Chang’an nodded, not denying it.   Yao Shichen then asked, “Are the materials for this pill easy to obtain? How difficult is it to refine…”   He spoke quickly, asking several questions in succession.   Li Chang’an remained patient and answered them one by one.   After listening, Yao Shichen asked with delight, “So, any fourth-tier low-grade alchemist can refine this kind of pill?”   ”That’s right, as long as you are familiar with the pill formula.”   ”Fellow Daoist Li, would you be willing to offer this pill formula to your sect?”   ”Of course I would.”   Li Chang’an had already seen through his thoughts.   As long as they obtained the Blood Transformation Nether Pills, the Myriad Array Sect could mine the spirit minerals in the Blood Crystal Secret Realm on a large scale.   Of course.   Even without the Blood Transformation Nether Pills, it would be the same.   If the Myriad Array Sect really needed blood crystals urgently, they could just have a Nascent Soul Heavenly Lord take action.   No matter how strong the monsters in the secret realm were, they could not be a match for a Nascent Soul Heavenly Lord.   When the Great Jin Immortal Dynasty developed the Fire Cloud Secret Realm, it encountered a lot of resistance from the natives of the secret realm.   However, even with all the native inhabitants of the secret realm gathered together and using every means at their disposal, they could not withstand the power of a Nascent Soul cultivator.   The Blood Crystal Secret Realm was in the same situation.   The only difference was that a Nascent Soul Celestial Lord stood at the highest level of the entire sect; unless absolutely necessary, they only needed to enjoy the resources and did not need to exert themselves in mining them.   Li Chang’an asked Yao Shichen,   ”Envoy, how much contribution can this pill formula be exchanged for?”

“No need to call me ‘Envoy,’ we are both Golden Core cultivators, just address me as ‘Fellow Daoist.'”

Yao Shichen smiled and gave Li Chang’an a simple estimate.

He estimated that the contribution of this pill formula would be enough for Li Chang’an to exchange for a True Heaven-grade cultivation technique within the sect.

Li Chang’an then asked, “Could I exchange it for a fourth-tier dragon blood?”

“Fourth-tier dragon blood? This item isn’t on the exchange list, so it’s not easy to obtain. However, the sect’s treasury has some. Once I successfully form my Nascent Soul, I’ll be qualified to exchange for it, and I’ll personally exchange it for you then!”

Yao Shichen promised confidently.

Li Chang’an immediately thanked him, “Thank you, Fellow Daoist Yao!”

Thus,

the dragon blood problem that had troubled him for so long was resolved.

Yao Shichen had a good reputation and shouldn’t be untrustworthy, unless he was also a two-faced person like Mu Wei.

Of course, all of this was predicated on his successful Nascent Soul formation.

He told Li Chang’an, “Within three years, I will attempt to form my Nascent Soul. Fellow Daoist Li, you can rest assured. I am fearless and will surely overcome the tribulation of forming my Nascent Soul!”

“Good, then I wish Fellow Daoist Yao success in forming his Nascent Soul!”

Li Chang’an smiled, his words full of sincerity.

During their conversation,

True Monarch Hanhai had already picked all the Blood Crystal Flowers.

He asked the two, “My two young friends, I have achieved my purpose for this trip and plan to leave the secret realm. What do you think?”

Yao Shichen said, “My fourth-tier techniques have consumed a lot of energy, and I need to go back and rest. What about you, Fellow Daoist Li?”

“I also plan to go back.”

Li Chang’an had no objection.

Although he only obtained a wisp of Burning Heart Flame, the greatest gain from this trip was Yao Shichen’s promise.

After sending these two away, he could slowly search for fire on his own.

And so,

the three embarked on their return journey.

Along the way, True Monarch Hanhai and Yao Shichen exchanged communication treasures with Li Chang’an.

One was a veteran Nascent Soul True Monarch, and the other was Yao Lanqin’s younger brother; both had considerable connections.

After the dramatic changes in the world, Li Chang’an desperately needed such connections.

Afterwards, Yao Shichen contacted Yao Lanqin to inform her of what had happened.

When the three returned to the entrance of the secret realm, Yao Lanqin had already arrived.

A rare hint of concern flashed across her usually cold and aloof face as she used her Nascent Soul power to examine Yao Shichen’s meridians.

“It’s good you’re alright. Go back and rest well. You were a bit reckless this time,”

she instructed him. Then

, Yao Lanqin shifted her gaze to Li Chang’an.

“Li Chang’an, you did well. You’ve made a great contribution this time.”

With that, she lightly flicked her jade hand, and a jade slip flew out, hovering in front of Li Chang’an.

Li Chang’an took the jade slip and probed it with his divine sense, immediately seeing a vast amount of insights into overcoming the Heart Demon Tribulation.

Thousands upon thousands, countless!

These insights were part of the foundation of the Divine Transformation Immortal Sect and were generally not given to outsiders.

Today,

because of her younger brother Yao Shichen, Yao Lanqin made an exception.

Li Chang’an accepted the jade slip and immediately thanked him, “Thank you, Senior Yao!”

“It’s nothing. Is there anything else you want?”

“Senior Yao, I wish to obtain some alchemy materials, but I lack trading channels and don’t know where to purchase them.”

Li Chang’an feigned distress and handed over a list of materials.

The list contained the main ingredients and some rare auxiliary ingredients he needed to refine the One Heart Pill.

Yao Lanqin took the list, glanced at it briefly, and a hint of surprise flashed in her beautiful eyes.

Although she didn’t understand alchemy, she could judge the pill’s grade by the materials.

“Li Chang’an, the Refining Heart Jade among these materials is quite rare. As for the other treasures, I will find them for you within three months.”

“Thank you for your trouble, Senior!”

Li Chang’an was secretly pleased.

With Yao Lanqin’s help, the time it would take him to refine the One Heart Pill would be greatly shortened.

The sooner he refined the One Heart Pill, the sooner he could break through to the Nascent Soul stage.

Afterward,

he offered the pill formula in exchange for contributions from the Myriad Arrays Sect.

Yao Lanqin accepted the pill formula and said to him, “Your cultivation level is too low. Exchanging for other treasures won’t be very useful. It’s best to exchange for a better cultivation technique. This ‘Mysterious Origin One Wood Technique’ is quite good; its grade is True Heaven.”

In her opinion, Li Chang’an had only ever been a rogue cultivator. Even after becoming an elder of the Zixia Sect, it would be difficult for him to obtain a good cultivation technique. He mostly practiced inferior pseudo-Heaven grade techniques.

This was why he had been unable to break through.

“If you switch to cultivating this technique, you should have a chance to reach the late Golden Core stage in this lifetime. With a little more luck, you can even touch the path to Nascent Soul.”

“I understand. Thank you for your guidance, Senior.”

“It’s good that you understand.”

Yao Lanqin didn’t say anything more and left with Yao Shichen.

Not long after,

True Monarch Hanhai also departed on his flying boat.

Before leaving, he solemnly invited, “Young friend Li, if you have time in the future, you are welcome to visit my Hanhai Sect.”

“Alright, this junior will definitely pay a visit!”

Li Chang’an casually said some polite words and watched True Monarch Hanhai depart.

Afterwards, he ventured alone into the Blood Crystal Secret Realm, searching for the Burning Heart Flame.

In less than half a day, he found a wisp.

For the next month,

Li Chang’an remained deep within the secret realm, gradually increasing the number of Burning Heart Flames he obtained.

During this time, he encountered several attacks from fourth-tier monsters, each time easily resolved with the Blood Transformation Nether Pill, without facing much danger.

One day,

following his senses, Li Chang’an found another wisp of Burning Heart Flame.

“Including what I obtained before, I now have thirty wisps of Burning Heart Flame, that should be enough.”

With a thought, he took out twenty-nine jade bottles and opened their seals.

Then, wisps of Burning Heart Flame flew out, merging with the wisp in his hand, transforming into a fist-sized ball of Burning Heart Flame.

According to the pill formula,

a fist-sized ball of Burning Heart Flame was enough to sustain one refining attempt.

However, to be on the safe side, Li Chang’an did not leave, spending another month to obtain a second fist-sized ball of Burning Heart Flame.

“Two Heart-Burning Flames, one chance for error, shouldn’t be a big problem.”

“Find more to increase the chances of error. Even if we don’t need them later, we can exchange them for top-grade spirit stones.”

Li Chang’an was very patient and continued searching.

His cultivation had already reached the peak of the Golden Core stage, so there was no need to continue cultivating. He only needed to gather as many alchemy materials as possible.

However, for some reason, in the following days, a sense of unease gradually rose in his heart.

“What’s going on?”

Li Chang’an calculated his fortune with his fingers, and the hexagram he received was neutral.

This meant that

he would not encounter any trouble for the time being.

But the feeling of unease in his heart did not dissipate; instead, it gradually intensified with the passage of time.

“I haven’t offended anyone recently, I’ve just been searching for treasures in the secret realm, so why do I have this feeling? Could it be that the world is about to change again?”

He pondered while searching for Heart-Burning Flames .

Unknowingly, he had already escaped into the deepest part of the earth.

Suddenly,

he felt a burning sensation in his heart again.

“Heart-Burning Flames again.”

Li Chang’an temporarily suppressed other thoughts and focused on finding the fire.

The burning sensation this time was far more intense than ever before, indicating there was more than just one wisp of Heart-Burning Flame.

He continued his descent, following his senses.

“Strange, the deeper I go, the denser the blood energy becomes. This hasn’t happened before. Could my unease be caused by this secret realm?”

Li Chang’an remained vigilant, navigating the dense blood energy, gradually approaching the source of his senses.

His deduction was correct.

This time, he sensed more than one wisp of Heart-Burning Flame—thirteen in total!

“Not bad, quite a harvest.”

He waved his hand, collecting all the Heart-Burning Flames.

Afterward, he searched the vicinity but found no more Heart-Burning Flames. However, he discovered an unusual spiritual energy pattern.

“This is… an array pattern?”

Li Chang’an frowned slightly, stopping to examine it closely.

This pattern was entirely blood-red, emitting a strong bloody stench, seemingly formed from countless drops of blood.

After further observation, Li Chang’an confirmed that this was indeed an array pattern!

Moreover,

this array pattern did not exist alone.

Li Chang’an quickly found a second blood-red array pattern nearby.

“Why are there array patterns deep within this Blood Crystal Secret Realm? What is the purpose of these array patterns?”

Li Chang’an searched around and discovered more than ten array patterns.

He then went to other areas to continue his search.

He quickly discovered that, both inside and outside the bloodline, deep within the earth of every area he explored, there were blood-red array patterns.

These array patterns were connected to each other.

In other words,

beneath the earth of the Blood Crystal Secret Realm, there was an unimaginably vast array!

Once activated, this array would envelop the entire secret realm.

Li Chang’an’s understanding of arrays was insufficient to discern the array’s function, but he vaguely sensed that this array was the source of his unease.

That night,

he quietly left the Blood Crystal Secret Realm.

As expected, the moment he left the secret realm, his unease vanished instantly, and he felt much lighter, as if a huge mountain had been lifted from his shoulders.

“It really is the secret realm’s fault.”

Li Chang’an returned to the secret realm, once again disappearing into the depths of the earth. He found an array pattern and pondered

for a moment. A short while later ,

he intercepted a wisp of blood energy emanating from the array pattern, took out a large number of divination treasures, and used the blood energy to perform calculations.

Mysterious divination power slowly rose around him, gradually turning crimson.

Before long, a blurry and bloody scene appeared before his eyes.

“Blood sacrifice!”

Li Chang’an was shocked.

He vaguely saw a crimson array rising, and countless cultivators within the array turning into withered bones amidst screams.

Suddenly, a backlash occurred; he trembled, groaned, and hurriedly stopped his calculations.

“This formation is actually a blood sacrifice formation! Didn’t the Myriad Formations Sect notice anything?”

“No, perhaps this formation was set up by the Myriad Formations Sect themselves!”

“The reward for this mission is too generous, abnormally so. Perhaps it’s a tactic by the Myriad Formations Sect to attract cultivators…”

Li Chang’an frowned in thought.

In recent days, quite a few cultivators have entered the Blood Crystal Secret Realm.

Due to the high reward, many cultivators from affiliated forces have flocked from all directions, searching for blood crystals throughout the secret realm.

Even many disciples of the Myriad Formations Sect have come.

Among them,

some disciples are there to contribute, while others are using the secret realm as a training ground.

For example, Yao Shichen has already returned to the secret realm and is training deep within it.

“If the Myriad Formations Sect really wanted to perform a blood sacrifice, why didn’t they warn a prodigy like Yao Shichen? Perhaps he knew, but he might also be kept in the dark.”

“Never mind, regardless of whether this formation is related to the Myriad Formations Sect, Yao Shichen cannot die!”

Yao Shichen is connected to fourth-tier dragon blood.

Li Chang’an doesn’t want him to die here.

Thinking of this, he immediately used divination to secretly influence Yao Shichen, guiding him to continuously descend deeper into the earth.

Although Yao Shichen possessed high talent, he was ultimately only a Golden Core cultivator and did not realize he was being influenced.

At this moment,

he was chasing a powerful blood energy monster.

“Hmph, trying to escape?”

He was filled with murderous intent, chasing after the monster and flying deeper into the earth.

After a difficult chase, he finally managed to kill the monster deep underground.

“Hoo…”

Yao Shichen slowly exhaled and took out a few pills to recover.

“This monster’s strength far exceeds that of an ordinary quasi-fourth-tier monster. If I let him grow for a while longer, he might be able to cross the threshold of the fourth tier.”

He sat cross-legged, about to rest for a moment, when he suddenly sensed a strange blood energy.

“Strange, there seems to be some kind of blood energy treasure that I cannot see here.”

He frowned slightly and used various treasures.

Finally, with the help of a fourth-tier illusion-breaking treasure, he saw the hidden blood-colored array patterns.

“What is this?”

Yao Shichen wondered.

He channeled a wisp of magical power into the array patterns, and a sense of unease suddenly arose in his heart.
