At the center of the altar, a blood-colored spherical object was quietly suspended within the array.

This object was no more than the size of a palm, and amidst the intertwining light and shadow, one could vaguely see a shadow inside, writhing like a worm, emitting waves of blue-black ice aura.

Compared to the Marriage Robe Blood Gu King obtained earlier, the aura emitted by the worm shadow within this blood-colored sphere was evidently much stronger and more ferocious. The disparity was as great as that between a rabbit and a wolf.

"Good, good, just as I expected, this Blood Nest Base has two Upper Grade Spirit Veins of Profound Ice Yin Fiend, aimed at cultivating the ice evil attribute Marriage Robe Blood Gu King." A trace of fanaticism flashed through the young master’s eyes, "With this, there’s hope for my Yin Sha Spirit Body bloodline to once again ascend."

He was already a direct disciple, a celestial pride of the Yin Sha Sect, with inherently extraordinary bloodline talents. If he could advance further, even among the direct disciples, he could count himself as one of the elites, with a future prospect of entering the real high ranks of the Yin Sha Sect, becoming a powerful figure with authority.

However, he was now at the Fourth-level Spirit Body bloodline, and naturally, he couldn’t rely on this alone to advance to the Fifth Bloodline. But even progressing a step or two within the Fourth Bloodline, such as to the middle or upper stage of the Fourth-level, he would be quite satisfied.

Moreover, as long as he obtained the method to cultivate the Marriage Robe Blood Gu Emperor from this Blood Nest Base, he could naturally find ways to create a second and third Marriage Robe Blood Gu Emperor. By then, would the Fifth Bloodline still be far?

"Warning! Warning!" The artifact spirit issued a sharp warning, "Intruder, this middle-tier ice evil Marriage Robe Blood Gu is important property of Blood Nest Base 3795, please leave immediately, or we will take coercive measures!"

In the eyes of everyone, it’s the Marriage Robe Blood Gu Emperor, yet in the classification set by the artifact spirit, it’s only labeled as Middle Tier. One can imagine how mighty the Black Tortoise Cultivators of the Divine Martial Dynasty era were. Even a suppressed rebel organization was by no means to be underestimated.

"Artifact spirit, don’t issue such foolish warnings." The young master sneered, "If you had any coercive measures left, you would have used them by now. Accept your fate, for both you and this ice evil Marriage Robe Blood Gu Emperor will become the personal property of this young master."

He had plotted for so many years, exhausting every effort, was it not all for this day?

Immediately.

With the Yin Sha Demon Blade in his hand, he unleashed blades of light consecutively, quickly forcefully breaking the array outside the blood-colored sphere and extracting the blood-colored sphere within it.

"Hahaha~ Jii Tianyin, Linghu Wuji, you look down on this young master so high and mighty. Once my bloodline reaches the upper stage of the Fourth-level, I’ll surpass you all." He gazed at the blood-colored sphere in his hand, eyes as if beholding a treasure, filled with both apprehension and frenzied excitement.

Just as the young master was fervently anticipating.

Suddenly!

A change occurred in Ancestor Hua Ye’s battlefield.

Originally, Ancestor Hua Ye, with the help of the young master’s Yin Sha Xuan Corpse, had the upper hand, severely injuring the Celestial Human Realm Blood Nest Warrior.

Unexpectedly.

When the Yin Sha Xuan Corpse rushed forward, preparing to finish off the Blood Nest Warrior, Ancestor Hua Ye’s body suddenly erupted in flames, a vast imposing aura bursting forth.

At the same time, the Spiritual Artifact-level Fire Battle Halberd in his hand suddenly swept across.

Amidst the blazing light, the mighty Red Dragon Profound Qi coalesced at the tip of the halberd, transforming into a crimson Fire Dragon that roared out.

The target was surprisingly the head of the Yin Sha Xuan Corpse!

That Yin Sha Xuan Corpse was acting under the young master’s orders, assisting Ancestor Hua Ye in combat. With its simple intelligence, how could it have anticipated Ancestor Hua Ye’s sudden attack?

"Boom!"

In the intense explosion, the head of the Yin Sha Xuan Corpse was directly blasted apart by the crimson Fire Dragon, shattering into several fragments.

Afterward, Ancestor Hua Ye swung his halberd, quickly knocking the already heavily injured Blood Nest Warrior to the ground and severing its legs.

In just an instant, both the Yin Sha Xuan Corpse and the Blood Nest Warrior were dispatched by Ancestor Hua Ye.

The young master’s expression changed, shouting angrily, "Hua Ye, have you gone mad?"

"Hahaha~ Your Excellency the young master, we, the Celestial Human Families of the magnificent Daqian Kingdom, how could we truly cooperate with evil beings like you?" Having already acted, Ancestor Hua Ye no longer suppressed his reservations, letting out a hearty laugh, "Previously, it was merely pretense to string you along."

Amidst the roaring flames, he stood with the halberd in hand, his spirit clear and refreshed, his vigor mighty, truly with the presence of a Flame War God descending to the mortal world.

"Good, good, good! Indeed, human hearts are inscrutable. I admit I underestimated you." The young master laughed in anger, yet his gaze seemed to freeze with chilling coldness, "However, do you think by killing my Yin Sha Xuan Corpse, I have no means to deal with you? Hmph, you seriously underestimate me, the celestial pride of the Yin Sha Sect."

"The young master is jesting." Ancestor Hua Ye’s smile did not waver, "I, Hua Ye, am merely an old ancestor from a small rural town, what virtue or ability do I have to compete with a celestial pride of the Yin Sha Sect? Having dared to scheme against you today, how could I be unprepared? Ancestor Yuanwu, if not now, then when would you show up?"

Ancestor Yuanwu?

The young master’s expression drastically changed.

He never imagined that Ancestor Hua Ye would have actually invited an ancestor, and what was more infuriating was that he hadn’t even noticed it.

At this moment.

Among the Spirit Platform Mirror followers brought by Huangfu Jinhuan, an utterly inconspicuous old servant slowly straightened his body and walked out step by step.
