Chapter 634 - 290: With My Blood, I Forge the Path of Light

The Celestial Secret Tower Master took out three slender sticks of black and red incense and placed them respectfully into the incense burner.

This incense was pitch black all over, with faint crimson patterns etched across it.

Upon closer inspection, the crimson patterns seemed like fresh blood seeping from the top, an eerie sight that was somewhat terrifying.

Activating the Eye of True Sight, Lu Wenwu felt a slight shock in his heart.

[Blood Soul Immortal Incense (Tier One of Ascension to Divinity)]: 49/49

[Cultivation]: None

[Current State]: Sealed

[Analysis]: Condense incense with blood, ignite fire with life.

A supreme treasure of the Immortal Realm!

Even if it was just three sticks of incense, Lu Wenwu still didn’t dare to underestimate it.

It was well known that the power exerted by consumable items in one use often surpassed that of items that could be used continuously.

To illustrate, a traditional Flying Sword could only be used following the standard Sword Control Technique and still didn’t break free from the realm of cold weapons.

But if replaced with a disposable Flying Sword, it could explode inside the enemy after penetration, being used like a cultivation version of a missile, greatly increasing its destructive power!

The Blood Soul Immortal Incense was the same way.

Just by looking at the name and introduction, it was evident it was not something from the Human World.

In the Cultivation Realm, these one-time magical treasures triggered by life had no weak counterparts.

Some Divinity Transformation powerhouses clearly recognized this Blood Soul Immortal Incense and were stunned on the spot.

A moment later, their eyes brimmed with endless sighs and intense sadness.

The Blood River Demon Venerable’s eyes showed a trace of distraction as he muttered to himself, "The legendary Blood Soul Immortal Incense refined with the blood and bones of a Loose Immortal... could it truly exist in the Mortal World? Anyone who burns this incense will surely suffer Heaven’s wrath, their souls scattering and perishing! Elder Tianji, how could you possess such an extremely evil item?"

"This item was originally created by our tower’s patriarch," the Celestial Secret Tower Master said calmly, "It’s only occasionally that a few rebellious disciples let some spread out."

Saint Venerable Heng Ru and others were struck as if by thunder.

But soon, they became reconciled to the fact.

The reason for the Celestial Secret Tower’s longstanding dual presence within the Righteous and Demonic Dao, accepting all comers, was revealed.

Unexpected, yet reasonable.

Ignoring the gazes of others, the Celestial Secret Tower Master slowly closed his eyes.

Lu Wenwu reminded, "Although I do not know exactly what effect this thing will have, my spiritual sense tells me we should prepare to charge."

The people’s expressions tightened; the prior melancholy instantly vanished.

In its place, only a courage that faced death unflinchingly, and a solemn battle intent!

Suddenly, the Celestial Secret Tower Master’s eyes snapped wide open.

The originally black and white eyes were instantly covered by an inky blackness, even the pupils had vanished.

Upon closer inspection, there seemed to be silver-white star-like specks shining in the blackness.

At some unknown time, massive clouds had gathered high above, adding an extra heavy shroud to the already dim sky.

"Boom..."

Blood-colored thunderbolts raged behind the clouds, and a terrifying low air pressure formed over the battlefield.

Suddenly, a fierce wind arose from the center of the first line of defense.

The intense Gang Wind made it nearly impossible for Low Tier Qi Refining cultivators to stabilize themselves, while some drifting Split Creatures floated around like catkins!

"Ignite!"

The Celestial Secret Tower Master uttered a syllable, akin to a beast’s roar, like a vengeful spirit’s wail.

Suddenly, the aura erupting from him shot up like a rocket, surpassing Lu Wenwu in an instant, reaching a whole new height.

The Gang Wind blowing between heaven and earth gradually took on a color.

It was gray, representing deathly stillness!

The tornado-shaped Gang Wind, centered on the Celestial Secret Tower Master, poured directly into his body!

For a moment, on the battlefield, the Yin Wind howled like the icy and bone-chilling Eternal Purgatory.

Even Lu Wenwu was taken aback.

This Gang Wind had almost become tangible, entirely formed from fragments of souls of innumerable fallen cultivators on the battlefield, with deathly stillness tinged with blood-red!

Empty Monk’s Rebirth Spell incantations rose louder, his whole body revealed golden Buddha Light.

When that kind of vengeful spirit storm was compressed to a certain extreme, those three sticks of Blood Soul Immortal Incense simultaneously ignited!

It was at this moment that blood-red thunder pierced through the heavens, striking directly into the Celestial Secret Tower Master’s Celestial Spirit.

His body suddenly became like charcoal, yet the aura rising from him was even more terrifying.

More spine-chilling was that as the three sticks of evil incense burned, the Celestial Secret Tower Master’s cross-legged body was gradually disappearing from the bottom up.

When the three sticks burned completely, only his head remained.

The rampant Gang Wind on the battlefield halted, and the world fell silent.

The pitch-black and aged head with eyes wide open suddenly transformed into a streak of red light, plunging straight into the True Demon Mother Insect’s body.

In that moment, the heavens were furious.

Thunder’s roar filled the sky, one after another, blood-colored thunder as thick as millennium giant trees smashed down continuously.

When the thunder made contact with the True Demon Mother Insect, there was no physical interaction at all; it went straight into its body.

Just as everyone on the second line of defense was puzzled about what had happened, a piercing scream erupted from a far distance, nearly shattering people’s eardrums!

It was the True Demon Mother Insect!

The entire wave of Split Creatures actually halted at this moment, as if their souls had been extracted, they collapsed to the ground, motionless.

The Split Creatures that had been fighting with the Divinity Transformation and Nascent Soul Cultivators in the air began falling to the ground like raindrops.

Landing with crunching bones, it’s hard to tell how many bones broke!

"Immortal Slayer! It’s going to succeed!"

A frenzied roar echoed in everyone’s ears, almost like the fabled Celestial Demonic Sound.
