They all call me Great Master-Chapter 969 - 944: I’ve Prepared Everything!
The crimson spanned the heavens and the earth.
The entire people of South Los looked up, seeing nothing but red in their eyes.
And...
The stench.
It was like blood mixed with innards left under the June sun to bake for a day, then tossed into a pit to ferment for three days.
Ugh! 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂
Someone vomited immediately.
Moreover, as they vomited, their expressions became dazed.
As if...
Their souls had left their bodies!
No!
It was a real case of soul extraction!
One by one, translucent spirits were drawn from their bodies, drifting towards the crimson river in the sky.
This was the secret technique 'Blood River' created by the Blood Marquis.
In the name of 'Fresh Blood', it devours all souls, endlessly growing, forming an unstoppable and uninterrupted force. Any spirit that enters it cannot escape and will be devoured and enslaved.
Anyone standing in the way of the 'Blood River'...
Will be crushed.
Even the Old Lion is no exception.
In an instant, the Old Lion overburdened his 'Theofact Psychic Cultivation Association' legacy secret technique [Distortion] along with his 'Space' talent, using 'life' and 'death' as anchors.
Buzz!
A unique golden shield blocked the Old Lion.
But,
It was useless!
Even another attempt to pry 'time' was futile.
Boom!
Crash!
The moment it collided with the 'Blood River', the golden shield shattered.
"Life and death?
In the 'Blood River', life and death run continuously, what can your [Distortion] do?
Space?
My 'Blood River' is boundless, how can your space transfer out?
As for time?
Within the endless 'Blood River'...
There is no time!"
The Blood Marquis laughed.
He was different from Earl of South Los and Duke of Northern County.
He understood the Old Lion inside and out.
Why did he create the 'Blood River'?
To counter the secret technique [Reverse]!
Of course, not the Old Lion's [Reverse], but that bastard 'Death's [Reverse]!
He could tell the Old Lion's [Reverse] was self-developed, much less compared to that bastard 'Death's [Reverse].
But that made dealing with it all the easier for him.
"Blood Marquis, you are terrifying!
If there hadn't been layer upon layer of traps set back then...
Would you dare to so calmly 'go to your death'?"
Another golden shield appeared in front of him, giving the Old Lion, who hadn't been submerged by the 'Blood River', the chance to speak. He looked at the pale-faced, maliciously grinning Blood Marquis, his smile unchanged.
The Blood Marquis snorted coldly at the Old Lion's words.
To that 'Death' bastard, the Blood Marquis's hatred was almost tangible.
"'Blood River'?
Why not 'River of Death'?
It's naturally because you, having not achieved the 'Death' position, don't deserve to call your creation 'River of Death'..."
"Enough!"
The Blood Marquis shouted fiercely, interrupting the Old Lion.
The Old Lion laughed even more happily.
His gaze turned to the lighthouse of Xisis Port.
There lay one of the props made by Hercules, the 'Sun Arrow'.
At this moment, Madam Susan stood next to this prop, took a deep breath, and placed her hand on it—
Buzz!
A dazzling golden light suddenly flickered.
The grip of the 'Blood River' vanished instantly.
The souls of the people of South Los slowly returned to their bodies.
Not only that, this dazzling gold shook the very foundation of the 'Blood River', and a blinding white light appeared within the crimson spanning the skies.
That was—
Thunder!
Rumble!
Majestic Heavenly Might, Thunder strikes to dispel evil.
The Countess of South Los, her entire being transformed into lightning, landed a fist at the speed of light on the Blood Marquis's face.
"Get out of my territory, you murderous bastard!"
With a low roar, the Countess of South Los's fists fell like a storm.
High above, amid the sound of flesh decaying, the Duke of Northern County, with a rope around his neck, was taciturn.
A flicker of blackness spread from his hand throughout his body.
This was the residual power of the secret technique 'Eternal Darkness'.
He had just absorbed it from the Earl of South Los, using it to heal his injuries and resist 'Fresh Blood'.
The Blood Marquis's 'Fresh Blood' was far more powerful than expected.
If he were at full strength, the Duke of Northern County could naturally resist it.
But two bursts beyond the limit had long since caused him backlash.
Not to mention taking a 'Nine Hundred and Ninety-nine Million Nine Hundred and Ninety-nine Forces' heavy punch from the Earl of South Los under the Old Lion's bizarre secret technique.
Surviving was already a testament to his strong physique.
And now?
The Duke of Northern County planned a counterattack.
At this point, the Duke of Northern County decided not to retreat.
Looking at the Old Lion, feeling the Blood Marquis's 'Fresh Blood' corroding, the Duke of Northern County's eyes narrowed like a wolf's.
As for the Countess of South Los?
Too simple.
She was the Countess of South Los.
She enjoyed the respect and taxes of the South Los people.
Thus...
At this moment, she had to stand in front of the South Los people, shielding them from external threats.
Rumble!
Another clap of thunder, sending the Blood Marquis flying over a thousand meters.
Under such a stormy assault, the Blood Marquis's entire body was covered in char, especially the final punch, which had blown away half of his head.
Of course, none of that was most important.
The most important thing was the Old Lion.
Taking advantage of the gap, the Old Lion, having escaped the 'Blood River', appeared behind the Blood Marquis.
Raising a hand, the Old Lion tightly embraced the Blood Marquis.
