Becoming evil makes you ten times stronger, but becoming a demon gives you hundredfold strength-Chapter 444 - 348: Vision for the Future, Actions of the Present

Immortal Sect Star System, Blood God Sect.

The Judgement Court, acting as the enforcement division of the Blood God Sect, was always steeped in a solemn and tense atmosphere. The new recruits, who had just come in, had even cast aside all manner of cheer and liveliness, turning themselves into what seemed like ancient artifacts.

However, even the most solemn of departments needed to crack jokes and mock others from different places to unwind a little.

For example, of late, the folks in the Judgement Court relished mocking the Immortal Sect, an external force deeply loathed and detested by the Blood God Sect.

How should one put it… Imagine you're living at home, a life that's somewhat tough and tiring, but still bearable. Then along comes a dandy—he's flush with spirit stone artifacts and not only lives well himself but also makes moves on your wife (subjects) and lovers (vassals). And those who fall under his spell find that a mere three days with him brings more joy than three years with you. So much so that many within your ranks start considering defection, thinking it's alright if life involves a bit of cuckolding, but...

The philosophy of the Immortal Sect can't be eaten as food. They imply it's all just for fun (the Immortal Sect earnestly desires to spread their values to the Blood God Sect, but assuming the burden and improving the other party's quality of life is absurd). The Immortal Sect means to say, "I think there is something wrong with your society, and I wish to uplift your culture, but… your wife will still be your wife. I don't want to marry her and become your brother!"

This kind of behavior is the most disgusting. The Immortal Sect is utterly shameless!

Fortunately, a recent vicious slap had landed squarely on the face of the Immortal Sect.

Meng Yu personally came to the Blood God Sect, seeking the Blood Sea Great Formation. This bewildering request left the higher-ups of the Blood God Sect speechless.

Of course, the Blood God Sect understood why the Immortal Sect didn't import the Blood Sea Great Formation and why its members were no longer allowed to learn or replicate it. It was a matter of divergent paths.

Forty thousand years earlier, the Blood River Ancestor and his three thousand brothers made a blood oath, used their blood to create sabers, linked by bloodlines. Together they founded the Blood God Sect. It wasn't just that the leader was called the Blood River Ancestor; as each leading brother died one after another, they were all the Blood River Ancestor.

The Blood Sea Great Formation, a method that draws on the robust nature of like-minded cultivators, could turn the world upside down once activated. It was akin to Sun Wukong's resolve of, "You can kill me, but I will never submit." How could the Immortal Sect possibly import such a thing?

They even smeared the Blood Sea Great Formation with all sorts of slander, calling it a perverse and heretical art, accusing it of utilizing dead cultivators as puppets and directing them in all manners of nefarious deeds. The matter even escalated to the point where... Meng Yu, the leading young genius of the Immortal Sect, came to the Blood God Sect seeking the Blood Sea Great Formation, in a bid to make himself even more powerful.

So, the Blood God Sect sternly lectured him with a host of reasons, which, at the end of the day, was also because they didn't want him to obtain the Blood Sea Great Formation—after all, it was a double-edged sword.

All was well until suddenly, no one felt like laughing anymore.

When news arrived that Meng Yu had aided Mirror Twelve in achieving Divinity Transformation, everyone felt that something was slightly amiss.

Among those who were most familiar with the Blood God Sect, no one surpassed the likes of Mirror Twelve, so was Meng Yu genuinely clueless or was he pretending all along?

On another note, imagine Meng Yu arriving and telling the bigwigs of the Blood God Sect, "I acknowledge the philosophy of the Blood River Ancestor, recognize the nobility of the Blood Sea Great Formation, and understand the hardships of this path. As of today, I will forsake the decrepit and slack values of the Immortal Sect and become a member of the Blood God Sect. Please teach me the Formation of the Blood Sea Great Formation!"

Guess which would be easier, acquiring the Blood Sea Great Formation in that way or playing the fool and enduring some ridicule, then merrily grasping the essence of the Blood Sea Great Formation? Although he was mocked by the big shots of the Judgement Court, the technique was genuine!

Perhaps, his own side made some mistake?

…

Meng Yu's thirty-fifth day in Sleepless City.

The Golden Core Envoys who had visited before had already returned. Of course, some remained, but Meng Yu didn't interact with them often to build rapport; he stayed mostly in the City Lord Mansion.

During this time, he studied the three great secret skills of the Blood God Sect: the Blood River Divine Sword, the Blood Shadow Divine Skill, and the Blood Transformation Technique.

His visit to the Blood God Sect earned him various ancient secret manuals of different versions.

Like an organization, a cultivation technique develops, grows, and expands, undergoing significant changes in thought and methods. It's not necessarily true that version 4.0 is better than 2.0; perhaps version 4.0 has deleted most of the core essence.

Although the Blood God Sect definitely held some things back, it did not matter.

By studying the original three great secret techniques, one could see many things. The cultivation techniques were exceptionally violent, some even self-damaging or suicidal. But what's wrong with that for people driven to desperation or seeking vengeance for deep-seated hatred?

The Blood Shadow Ancestor, leading his three thousand brothers, employed techniques that were as powerful and vicious as possible when they rebelled; they were indeed demonic arts.

For instance, the early thirteen styles of the Blood River Divine Sword—bad blood, marrow suction, bone dismantling... and the Blood Transmutation Divine Saber, a real Demon Sword, devouring everything, terribly frightening.

No different from the Blood Demon Sect.

They resisted the Empire's tyranny, with most members not surviving five years. At that time, should they still cultivate their True Qi gently, ensuring their swordsmanship and sword techniques were balanced and even?
