Chapter 142: Chapter 039: Blood Essence Carries Ancient Meaning (1)
Ancient Sword Intent always carries with it an ancient mood and an Immortal inheritance.
Zhou Yan’s Condensation of ancient Bloodlines was no exception. However, the Bloodline he condensed ultimately contained something different.
If Zhou Yan couldn’t have judged before, then at this moment, he was genuinely convinced of one thing: all of his Bloodlines were ultimately completely different from others.
This difference was reflected in the inheritance of the Bloodline, as well as the condensation of the Bloodline.
Because such a powerful Demon Beast’s Essence Blood, drop by drop, after being refined and transferred to Zhou Yan’s own Bloodline, he experienced many different pieces of information in this process. This difference even presented an ancient inheritance-like mood.
However, this mood, apart from Zhou Yan, is ungraspable and even undetectable to others.
They could only feel Zhou Yan’s strength and inexplicable changes, but they did not know what these changes were exactly. They understood that for a person like Zhou Yan, who had undergone ancient Bloodline Condensation, it must be a tremendously earth-shattering process.
Yet, even so, no one believed that Zhou Yan could complete such a process, especially not in such a short time and in front of such an overwhelmingly strong and ancient, chaotic, and furious Demon Beast Bloodline. The more they thought this, the more they could imagine the abnormal level of such a person. As a result, when Zhou Yan was comprehending, everyone looked at him with eyes filled with deep apprehension, and even some cultivators harbored some unusual thoughts.
It seemed like a great opportunity to take down Zhou Yan.
Nearly a hundred genius cultivators, although many had died in the endless onslaught of Demon Beasts, those worthy of the title "genius" were naturally one in ten thousand exceptional individuals. Besides being caught off guard by the Demon Beasts at the beginning, each and every Demon Beast that appeared afterwards didn’t struggle for long. Amidst silent transformation and influence, a group of cultivators gradually formed a certain tacit understanding, creating a combined attack pattern in groups of three or two.
As a result, the efficiency of slaying Demon Beasts increased significantly. ƒreewebɳovel.com
Zhou Yan simply stood in place, and a steady stream of Demon Beasts were refined and transformed into Essence Blood by Jia Yongheng, which was then absorbed through his palm.
The group of cultivators, seeing him absorb ancient Demon Beast Essence Blood without pause, once again avoided him—seemingly frightened that he might not be able to withstand it and explode.
This apprehension was reflected on the faces of nearly all the cultivators, their expressions extremely vivid when looking at Zhou Yan, with the sense of apprehension becoming even more obvious.
At this time, Feng Ling Bamboo had no distractions and devoted herself entirely to protecting Zhou Yan. She guarded him closely, regardless of whether she had the ability to do so, seemingly afraid to even take a deep breath, wholeheartedly attending to everything.
"Who would have thought Zhou Lingzhe could absorb so much ancient Demon Beast Essence Blood? Isn’t it that one must be extremely careful when absorbing such Essence Blood? Is he disregarding his own life?"
Among the cultivators, a beautiful female cultivator couldn’t help but mutter some worried words to herself.
"Sister, for someone as indifferent to everything as you, why are you so concerned about this matter? I don’t think you need to worry. Zhou Lingzhe is very confident; he clearly has a good grasp of all this! As for you, hmm, it’s rare to see you care so much about a male cultivator! If our master knew about this, he would surely be very happy," said a female cultivator in light-blue Spirit Armor, smiling next to the Red-clothed Woman.
There was a hint of teasing in her words, as well as a lot of joking intentions, but what she didn’t expect was that after she said this, her junior sister did not oppose but instead blushed prettily.
This scene caused her to shiver inwardly, and she instantly became more solemn.
As a result, she took another serious look at Zhou Yan, and at that moment, amidst the endless Blood Light, he seemed to be moving towards an ancient eternity. With this one look, she was stunned and entranced.
In her gaze, Zhou Yan stood at that moment like a Sovereign between Heaven and Earth, within an Ancient City.
She had never realized that a man could possess such charm, such capabilities and bravado, that his presence seemed even more powerful and imposing than Ji TaiXu, the Tai Xu Spiritualist she was all too familiar with.
She didn’t want to make comparisons because she didn’t wish to diminish the position of Ji TaiXu, who was akin to a divine being in her mind, due to such comparisons. But now, she had to, and through this comparison, she realized that all of Ji TaiXu’s aura and magical talent paled in front of Zhou Yan’s ancient eyes, which were as profound as an ancient city brimming with buildings.
This fading of color was even an assault on the spirit and soul.
She was stunned, stupefied, and then it was as if she suddenly returned to all those shocking and dazzling moments she had witnessed in the past.
It seemed that all shocks occurred at this moment, that all the overwhelming feelings appeared only in this instant. This inexplicable change caused her heart to start beating rapidly. Yet, by the time she came to her senses, Zhou Yan’s figure had already disappeared.
Because Zhou Yan’s figure seemed to have suddenly vanished.
She inexplicably felt an emptiness and a sense of loss in her heart, as if something important had disappeared all of a sudden. This inexplicably intense fear of loss came so strongly that she even felt restless for a moment.
"Senior Sister, you were teasing me, but you were just as dazed! Zhou Lingzhe went to attack the Demon Beast on his own, and that sword strike, truly unparalleled, a sword that shocked the world!"
The woman next to her, the Red-clothed Woman in Spirit Armor, murmured softly, her expression as sincere as that of a Flower Fanatic.
It was an expression she had never seen before.
And she was also very puzzled in her heart, feeling as if it had all happened in just an instant, yet it also seemed as long as eternity.
She didn’t know what had happened during that time at all.
"What sword strike... wasn’t he Condensing Essence Blood? Did he really draw his sword?"
The woman in the light blue Spirit Armor frowned and asked.
"Yes, such a sword strike, you missed it. It’s really a pity. However, I’ve recorded it with the Sword Illusion Realm, planning to watch it multiple times. I feel that sword strike was too vast!"
The Red-clothed Woman said tenderly.
"Well, good, show us quickly. I feel that this Zhou Yan truly seems remarkable."
The woman in blue Spirit Armor said excitedly.
"Of course. But Sister, speaking of the name ’Zhou Yan,’ the Holy Daughter does have a friend named ’Zhou Yan,’ I wonder if it could be him?"
The Red-clothed Woman whispered softly.
"Zhou Lingzhe, how could he possibly be such a good-for-nothing? Back then he spoke of the ’Three Sword Souls’... Ah, Guardian Jiu almost died laughing. Only a brainless person would say such a thing... Forget it, let’s not talk about such a disappointing matter. Sister, quickly show me the scene you recorded. Sister has found that Sister’s vision is still the best."
The woman in blue Spirit Armor said flatteringly as if she were cooing, her tone affectionate.
"Mhm, mhm, take a look. See how you were just laughing at me, and now you can’t even compare to me, you’re almost spellbound."
The Red-clothed Woman teased affectionately, her tone slightly petulant but still very gentle.
