<div> The internal space of the Blood Snake Ring was a cuboid space more than sixty zhang in length and width.
 Apart from some miscellaneous items, there were many martial arts secrets, metal ores, and treasures of heaven and earth hidden here...
 Bloodthirsty Double Kill was obsessed with killing and brutality, and therefore had amassed an extremely substantial fortune.
 Besides these resources, there were as many as one hundred and ten thousand Grade Essence Stones alone.
 "Killing Spirit Blood Crystal!"
 Chen Yu found two red crystals, and upon holding them in his hand, he felt a chilling Evil Qi rush towards his face.
 The Killing Spirit Blood Crystal could help Blood Dao Practitioners improve their cultivation, but it came with certain side effects.
 Still, most people would first enhance their cultivation and worry about potential problems later.
 "Flame Spirit, refine these two crystals."
 Chen Yu communicated with the Flame Spirit of the Blood Crystal Flame, letting it handle the task.
 "As you wish, Master!"
 Inside Chen Yu, a brilliant, glassy Blood Crystal Flame shot out and enveloped one of the red crystals.
 <div style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:10px;text-align:center">
 <div>
 
 </div>
 </div> The quality of the Blood Crystal Flame was continually improving.
 Previously, Chen Yu had competed for a Blood Essence Crystal Stone with Lu Ling beneath Burning Sun Mountain. After the Blood Crystal Flame devoured it, it could easily burn to death a typical Early-stage Sky Sea Realm cultivator.
 At this moment, the nourishing effect of these two Killing Spirit Blood Crystals on the Blood Crystal Flame was no less than that of the Blood Essence Crystal Stone he acquired back then.
 Next.
 Chen Yu pulled out two jars of liquor from the Blood Snake Ring.
 Upon opening them, a fiery, pungent aroma immediately spread out.
 Chen Yu took a gentle sniff, and his body uncontrollably began to heat up, with his blood temperature gradually rising, becoming hot, and its circulation speeding up. Even the True Yuan in the True Yuan Sea inside him stirred slightly.
 "Could this be ’Fire Burning Wine’?"
 Chen Yu sniffed a few more times, and finally confirmed that this was indeed the legendary Fire Burning Wine.
 The wine had an excellent taste, and those who loved liquor would definitely treasure it.
 The primary use of Fire Burning Wine was to expel impurities from True Yuan, stabilizing the foundation.
 Those who regularly consumed this wine had surefire cultivation, with pure and condensed True Yuan.
 Bloodthirsty Double Kill had practiced evil methods halfway through their path, with their cultivation advancing by leaps and bounds. Logically, their foundation should be unstable, with limited potential.
 It was precisely because of Fire Burning Wine that they eradicated these hidden dangers.
 In addition, Fire Burning Wine had certain benefits for the body, being able to strengthen the physique and promote the advancement of the life level.
 Ordinary people might not value this effect, but cultivators of Body Cultivation could not ignore it.
 "Good stuff."
 Chen Yu smiled.
 There were two jars of Fire Burning Wine here, enough for him to use for some time.
 Immediately, Chen Yu took a small sip.
 Hum bang!
 It was as if he had swallowed a ball of fire that exploded within him, turning into countless fierce flames that instantly swept through his body.
 Chen Yu felt as if every part of his body was burning.
 Eventually, the potency of the Fire Burning Wine reached the True Yuan Sea, merging into the tranquil black sea of Demon Pattern True Essence.
 Rumble~
 The True Yuan Sea surged, stirring continuously.
 "Indeed, it’s good stuff."
 Feeling the all-around changes in his body, Chen Yu couldn’t help smiling as he said.
 "Now for a sip of Hundred Flowers Honey."
 Chen Yu suddenly remembered that he had taken a pot of honey from the Golden Armored Giant Bear during the day.
 Hundred Flowers Honey could also nourish the body and promote the advancement of the life level.
 Besides, its most significant effect was to push cultivation, and compared to other treasures that could promote cultivation, Hundred Flowers Honey had minimal side effects.
 If combined with Fire Burning Wine, then consuming the cherished Hundred Flowers Honey to promote cultivation would leave virtually negligible hidden dangers.
 Thinking of this, Chen Yu took out the Hundred Flowers Honey and drank a small sip.
 One scorching bitter spice and one refreshing sweetness, the two flavors intertwined together, making Chen Yu feel comfortable all over, involuntarily humming in pleasure.
 Chen Yu thus sat down cross-legged and began to cultivate, operating the mental method of the Heavenly Demon Secret Pattern Record.
 The night passed swiftly.
 In the meantime, Chen Yu consumed another small sip of Hundred Flowers Honey and Fire Burning Wine.
 "Progress has been made in all aspects."
 Chen Yu checked himself and came to a conclusion.
 The quality of the Demon Pattern True Essence had improved, becoming more purified, while his body felt comfortable all over, filled with an urge to engage in a decisive battle immediately.
 "Time to move out!"
 Chen Yu left the cave and began the action of seizing marks.
 Just as he had covered a certain distance.
 Hum~
 A wave of energy fluctuations emanated all around, as the rock walls and trees on both sides suddenly lit up with dark blue Array patterns.
 "An Array!"
 Chen Yu muttered to himself.
 The next moment, a huge dark blue light shield enveloped and isolated him.
 Whoosh!
 A woman in black emerged not far away, holding an ancient Array Plate in her hand.
 "Haha, caught a prey!"
 Without another word, the woman in black activated the Array.
 Instantly.
 Around the Array wall, suddenly formed hundreds of blue light arrows, flickering with a cold and harsh light.
 "Die."
 The woman in black shouted lowly.
 Whoosh—
 Hundreds of blue light arrows, all flew towards Chen Yu at the center of the Array.
 If it were a normal Early-stage Sky Sea Realm cultivator, even if they used defensive moves, facing so many light arrows, they could possibly be pierced through, instantly turned into a hive.
 Secret Pattern Demon Body!
 A tremendous burst of Demonic Qi erupted from within Chen Yu, causing even the Array to tremble slightly.
 Immediately, his entire body turned pitch black, with ancient and strange inscriptions and demon patterns flickering with a dim light.
 Boom!
 Exuding a powerful aura, Chen Yu punched forward, a mass of black-patterned demon light, shrouded in a layer of Demonic Qi fog and containing a scorching hot breath, roared out.
 Bang bang crack!
 Directly in front, over a hundred blue light arrows were completely shattered by Chen Yu’s punch!
 "What?"
 The woman in black outside, shocked, wore an expression of great surprise.
 "You’re Chen Yu!"
 It was only then that she took a serious look, and when she saw Chen Yu’s face, she was terrified, turning as pale as a ghost, without a trace of color.
 <div style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:10px;text-align:center">
 <div></div>
 </div> If it were daytime, she certainly wouldn’t have such a reaction.
 But at night, a message spread nearby: Chen Yu had killed Bloodthirsty Second, who ranked thirty-sixth on the "Heroes Ranking," and Bloodthirsty Leader was now looking for Chen Yu’s whereabouts.
 Chen Yu had even killed the one who ranked thirty-sixth, Bloodthirsty Second. For her to confront Chen Yu now would be suicidal!
 Boom—
 The remaining arrow lights all fell on Chen Yu’s body, kicking up a layer of blue light storm.
 Before the explosion had subsided, a powerful Demonic True Essence swept out, pushing everything aside.
 Immediately afterward, Chen Yu harnessed the power of his body and punched down at the Array beneath his feet.
 Boom!
 The dim blue Array trembled violently, its energy draining rapidly, and cracks spread in all directions from Chen Yu’s fist.
 With a "bang," the Array shattered and disappeared instantaneously.
 However, as soon as the woman in black outside the Array confirmed Chen Yu’s identity, she slipped away.
 Whoosh!
 Chen Yu, unruffled, pursued out and quickly caught sight of the figure.
 The woman in black struggled but was left heavily wounded by Chen Yu’s punch and eventually handed over her mark.
 "What a monster, luckily he didn’t kill me, unlike the Bloodthirsty Double Kill," the woman in black felt a lingering fear.
 Following that, Chen Yu activated the Purple Cloud Cloak, running around and attacking anyone he saw, collecting many marks.
 At a certain moment.
 Chen Yu felt a formidable Sword Intent fluctuating in the distance, and his heart skipped a beat even though they were several miles apart.
 He slowly approached, wanting to see who it was.
 After all, in the battle for the Heroes Ranking, anyone could become Chen Yu’s opponent; knowing your enemies and yourself, you will fight without defeat.
 Soon, Chen Yu arrived at the edge of a gorge and saw three figures below.
 In the front, two figures were fleeing at high speed, among whom a man in a black robe with short hair had a cultivation level at the peak of the Early-Stage Sky Sea Realm.
 The other person wore a black dress, with a pale but full complexion and deep eyes, exuding a mature and sexy aura; a black moon mark was at the center of her eyebrows.
 "One of the Yin-Yang Twin Moons, ’Yin Yue’."
 Chen Yu’s expression turned solemn.
 The woman with the black moon mark on her forehead was none other than Yin Yue of the Evil Moon Sect, one of the Yin-Yang Twin Moons, and a top ten master on the "Heroes Ranking."
 The black-robed, short-haired man was also no weakling.
 Yet the two were being chased by a single person.
 Who could that be?
 The person behind them wore white, with hair like a cascading waterfall and otherworldly eyes.
 She held her hand as if gripping a sword, yet no sword was seen.
 Around her, countless sword lights drifted, cutting trees in the vicinity and leaving dozens of alarming sword marks on the rocks nearby.
 "Absolute Sword Immortal... Guan Aoxue!"
 Chen Yu recognized the stunning beauty, the Absolute Sword Immortal herself.
 "Yin Yue, hand over your mark, and I will spare your life!"
 The crisp voice of the Absolute Sword Immortal sounded out, pleasant to the ear but exceedingly cold.
 "Haha, Guan Aoxue, you’re delusional. Yang Yue will be here soon, and then we can settle the score," Yin Yue laughed.
 Guan Aoxue didn’t reply, and as she raised her arm, a terrifying Sword Intent that shocked the surrounding area ebbed out, as if myriad invisible swords were swirling and roaming.
 At this moment, Chen Yu barely made out the "invisible sword" in Guan Aoxue’s hands, and his mind throbbed uncontrollably.
 "Who?"
 Guan Aoxue sensed something and looked up the cliff.
 Suddenly, a sword light, sharp beyond compare and capable of annihilating everything, shot toward him.
 The invisible Sword Intent pierced the void, reaching Chen Yu’s mind first.
 Chen Yu’s figure wavered, and he felt a stabbing pain in his consciousness.
 Once he had recovered, he turned and fled.
 Whoosh—
 Behind him, numerous transparent sword lights chased after him, carrying an aura of absolute slaughter.
 The sword lights were faster than Chen Yu. He tried to dodge and weave but felt an inescapable sensation.
 Countless invisible swords had already locked onto Chen Yu!
 ...
 Outside, the surroundings were abuzz with discussion.
 Some factions were also tallying the marks obtained by various talents.
 "Guan Aoxue encountered one of the Yin-Yang Twin Moons, Yin Yue."
 "Wow, just three moves, and Yin Yue and another disciple from the Evil Moon Sect were beaten back!"
 "I wonder who is stronger when the Yin-Yang Twin Moons team up against the Absolute Sword Immortal, Guan Aoxue!"
 Everyone was looking forward to the clash between these three incredibly beautiful women.
 "Chen Yu!"
 Two high-ranking members of the Black Demon Sect suddenly saw Chen Yu approaching Guan Aoxue.
 "This kid is asking for death!"
 Sure enough, Guan Aoxue’s keen senses detected Chen Yu’s presence, and with just a thought, invisible and deadly swords were sent flying at Chen Yu.
 "Now Chen Yu’s done for. Although he could kill Bloodthirsty Second, who’s ranked thirty-sixth, who is the Absolute Sword Immortal? She’s a contender in the top five, even the top three!"
 "Even if the Absolute Sword Immortal just launched a casual strike, it holds enough strength to kill Chen Yu several times over."
 But in the next moment, the faces of those discussing changed.
 In their view, Chen Yu shot out from the midst of the sword lights.
 "How is that possible? That kid made it out?"
 ...
 Some thousands of feet above everyone’s heads, a faint fluctuation suddenly appeared, and a figure was vaguely visible.
 "Silent Blood King, there’s no need to be so tense."
 A voice with a teasing tone sounded.
 "Heh heh!"
 Silent Blood King chuckled.
 <div style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:10px;text-align:center">
 <div></div>
 </div> "But your disciple sure has some skill, escaping from the sword of my most proud student, even though it was just a casual stroke."
 The voice continued.
 As Guan Aoxue was a disciple of a Vice Pavilion Master of the Three-star Peak force "Heavenly Sword Pavilion," the identity of the speaker was evident.
 "In the next Heroes Ranking battle, he will have a place in the top five!" Silent Blood King said offhandedly.
 In truth, Chen Yu’s performance so far had exceeded Silent Blood King’s expectations. He had positioned Chen Yu within the top three for the next ranking battle.
 But in front of others, it was better to remain modest.
 "Hmm, indeed, the kid has a chance," the voice agreed.
 "Don’t speak too soon; the Three-star Peak forces of the Southern Domain are not to be trifled with. I’m afraid your Black Demon Valley might not claim a spot in the top five."
 Various voices chimed in.
 From the exchange, it was clear that the figures present were Condensed Star Kings from the Southern Domain, each powerful enough to cause a stir with a mere stomp of their feet!
 Normally, the battle for the Heroes Ranking wouldn’t draw the attention of these giants.
 But this time, it was unusual for all these mighty beings to gather here.</div>
