“Senior, can I go now?” The nearby vendor looked frightened and wanted to run, but didn’t dare to.
He was afraid that Zhang Chen wouldn’t let him go and would go back on his word, as there were too many instances of people burning bridges after crossing them.
“Wait,” Zhang Chen called out.
“Senior, is there anything else?” The vendor’s body stiffened.
“This is your reward.” Zhang Chen tossed 20 spirit stones over.
The vendor never expected Zhang Chen to actually keep his promise and hastily caught the spirit stones. “Thank you, senior.”
Zhang Chen ignored the stall owner and took the storage bags of the two brothers from the Blood God Sons.
Other than a dozen or so spiritual stones and a jade slip, there was nothing else in the storage bags.
It was obvious they sold everything they could and had spent almost all their spirit stones. Even if the two brothers continued to hide in the market, they could only do so for another ten days. It was no wonder they took the risk of coming out.
Zhang Chen took out a jade slip and placed it on his forehead to check. He realized that it was a joint attack spell called “Heaven and Earth Combined”.
It COUICI connect tne two Individuals’ spiritual powers as one, releasing a powerful strike.
However, the two individuals had to be in sync mentally, or else their spiritual powers would clash and they would explode and die.
Zhang Chen’s eyes lit up when he saw this spell. If he gave it to the Blood God to use, his strength could greatly increase.
However, the Blood God was currently not rational and needed him to split his attention to control it.
“I wonder how long it will take for the Blood God to develop intelligence.”
Thinking of this, Zhang Chen also thought of the Blood God he had released earlier and didn’t know if it had gained intelligence or not.
Because they were too far apart, he could only sense the direction the Blood God was in through a vague connection.
With the mission completed, Zhang Chen transformed into blood light and flew towards the Blood God Sect.
At the same time, an unwelcome guest arrived at a burial mound.
“Respected ghost grandfathers and grandmothers, please don’t be offended. Money can’t be brought into the afterlife, and when in need, one seeks help from the world.”
A man with a hoe muttered to himself nervously as he arrived at the burial mound.
His name was Song Limin, a gambler who couldn’t pay back his debts and had come to the burial mound to see if he could find something valuable.
He was hiding from loan sharks.
“Looks like it’s just me.”
Song Li chose a mound with tributes and looked around. If no one was around, he was ready to dig.
“Eh! Why did that Daoist temple collapse?”
Song Limin suddenly realized that the Daoist temple not far from the mass grave had become a pile of ruins.
He still remembered that the Daoist temple was built decades ago by a Daoist priest to suppress the souls of the mass graves. It was said that he had spent a lot of silver at that time.
“Let’s go take a look. Maybe we can pick up something valuable.” Song Limin hurriedly ran towards the Daoist temple.
Even if it was scrap metal, it could still fetch some money. It was much easier than digging graves.
Arriving at the ruins of the Daoist temple, Song Limin began to search continuously.
Soon, his attention was drawn to a perfectly intact jar.
“It’s heavy and there’s something inside.” Song Limin picked up the jar and showed a happy expression, opening the lid.
As the lid was opened, a strong smell of blood emanated, and inside was thick, red liquid, as if it had just flowed out of a body. “This is blood!” Song Limin quickly threw the jar away.
“Pa! ”
The jar shattered, blood splattered everywhere, but a strange scene occurred, as the blood on the ground began to flow and converge.
In Song Limin’s terrified gaze, the blood on the ground condensed into the shape of a human.
“Ghost… Ghost!” Song Limin screamed and fled in panic.
Zhang Chen left an order for the Blood God’s offspring to hide and not hurt anyone indiscriminately. 𝒇𝘳ee𝚠𝘦𝚋n૦𝐯el coｍ
The Blood God Son had no intelligence and acted purely on instinct, and Song Limin’s act of breaking the jar was perceived as an attack on it.
So the Blood God Son moved, turning into blood light and pouncing on Song Limin.
In iust an instant, all of Sonz Limin’s blood was sucked drv, turninz him into a
shriveled corpse.
After sucking the blood, the Blood God Son stood motionless next to the corpse, looking lost and not knowing what to do.
After a long time, the Blood God Son seemed to have undergone a slight change. Although it still looked the same, it seemed to have gained some agility.
The face without any features began to wriggle, revealing rough facial features.
The Blood God Son slowly opened its mouth, making intermittent, awkward sounds, “Blood… blood… blood…
After a while, the Blood God Son finally moved, transforming into a puddle of blood and flowing towards the distant forest.
Blood… Hide… Blood… Hide…
In the forest, a wild rabbit was eating grass, suddenly pausing as if sensing danger and trying to escape.
A blood shadow flashed by, and the rabbit’s body withered, and it became still.
A puddle of blood flowed out of the rabbit’s corpse, continuing to flow into the forest.
Driven by the thirst for blood, the Blood God Son continued to seek out and consume the blood of living creatures. Wherever it went, it left behind withered animal corpses.
A woodcutter was chopping down a tree, paying no attention to the puddle of blood flowing through the nearby bushes.
“Master… not allowed to hurt people indiscriminately… blood…”
The Blood God restrained his instincts, ignored the woodcutter, and continued to flow forward.
Five days later, Zhang Chen arrived at the Blood God Sect’s marketplace outside the Demon Beast Mountain Range.
He exchanged his blood for 400 spirit stones, bought some talisman paper, and several simple methods for drawing talismans.
He had originally wanted to buy a pill furnace to try alchemy, but he decided to put it off for now.
He hadn’t fully mastered talisman making yet, and he couldn’t afford to be distracted by alchemy, or he would end up accomplishing nothing in either. He had to master talisman making first before considering other things.
Back at the Blood God Sect, after completing his mission, Zhang Chen began his dull and boring cultivation routine.
He practiced drawing talismans in the morning, practiced spells in the afternoon, and devoured and refined demon blood at night.
A month later, Zhang Chen’s peaceful life was once again disrupted, as his third senior brother returned.
In Eldest Senior Brother’s cave abode.
“Third Junior Brother, you’re finally back. ”
Hong Longguang faced a man with a dark and fierce countenance.
“Eldest Senior Brother, I haven’t been back for a few years. Did something major happen in the sect?”
“Nothing major, but Master took in a new disciple before the third year and gave him your share of the profits from the Beast Garden.”
Third Senior Brother looked furious. “What! Not only did Master take in a new disciple, but he also gave him my share of the Beast Garden profits?” Hong Longguang sighed, “This is Master’s decision, and we have no say in it.”
“What about me? What am I supposed to do? How can a newly-promoted inner disciple take two-thirds of the profits from the Beast Garden?” Third senior brother gritted his teeth.
“Are you trying to defy Master’s orders?” Hong Longguang shook his head.
“What if he voluntarily gives me his share?” Third senior brother sneered.
Shortly after, outside Zhang Chen’s cave.
“Is Seventh Junior Brother here? I’m Eldest Senior Brother.”
“Eldest Senior Brother, what’s the matter?” Zhang Chen walked out of the cave abode and realized that there was an unfamiliar man at the ninth level of Foundation Establishment beside Hong Longguang. “This is your third senior brother, Wu Chang.”
“Greetings, Third Senior Brother.” Zhang Chen bowed..
