Chapter 531: Chapter 532: Is this left by one of your ancestors?

“Now that their Sword Cauldron Sect has dominated the entire Xuan Gui Continent, it has truly become the Holy Land of cultivation. I don’t know how many people dream of joining the Sword Cauldron Sect. Every year during the sect’s anniversary, various factions, families, including the Imperial Family, come to offer their congratulations, and the line of people giving gifts can stretch from the foot of the mountain to a hundred miles away.”

Mei Weixuan said proudly.

Zhong Lin just nodded upon hearing this. Controlling the only transmission array that leads to the outside world, and having the foundation he left them, if they were still barely surviving, he might have considered whether to establish a new power. Otherwise, a major uproar was bound to happen sooner or later.

“Unfortunately, it’s still not up to senior brother you. I also want to go out to sea and explore the pinnacle of martial arts like you, but alas, my aptitude is limited. After so many years, I’ve only barely cultivated to the Spiritual Origin Realm, even the little stone has a higher cultivation level than me. Ah! Let’s not talk about this, drink up, drink up.”

With that, he raised his wine cup and drank it all in one go.

Beside him, Zhong Lin and Shi Yunyi also raised their wine cups with gentle smiles.

“Junior brother Mei, has anything unusual happened on the Xuan Gui Continent in these past ten or so years?” Zhong Lin asked.

“Unusual? What do you mean?”

“For example, demons slaughtering the Jianghu.”

“Hahaha, how could that be possible?”

Mei Weixuan said loudly, “Now our Sword Cauldron Sect reigns supreme, who would dare to have the audacity to come out and slaughter the Jianghu? Besides, I’m now a master who has condensed Spiritual Origin, anyone causing trouble now would purely be disrespecting me.”

In the Spiritual Origin Realm on the Xuan Gui Continent, one is indeed unrestrained, Mei Weixuan was not wrong.

And the time was too short for the ’Blood Demon Technique’ to reemerge so quickly.

Since no further information could be extracted, Zhong Lin said no more, frequently raising cups. For a time, the entire table was full of laughter and cheer, until Mei Weixuan drank himself into a drunken stupor, marking the end.

Shi Yunyi looked somewhat speechlessly at the flushed face of Mei Weixuan, who was still drunkenly babbling, and said, “Doesn’t he know that the higher a Martial Artist’s cultivation, the less likely they are to get drunk? What’s the point of getting you drunk?”

Zhong Lin also had a face full of smiles, “Maybe he forgot!”

He instructed the maid to take Mei Weixuan back to his room, and the two of them slightly circulated their Spiritual Origin to transform the alcohol within their bodies.

“Let’s go, to the Black Wind Forest.”

With a step, his form turned into sword light, disappearing into the void, with Shi Yunyi closely following.

To be precise, the place Zhong Lin was heading to was the Blood Cave located within the Black Wind Forest.

Back then, his cultivation was only at the Spiritual Origin Realm and he wasn’t qualified to explore its secrets. Now he had reached the pinnacle of the Ninth Layer in the Life and Death Realm, and taking one more step forward would make him a true Great Ability of Nirvana. It was time to resolve the issue within the Blood Cave.

In less than an hour, the two of them had already arrived above the Black Wind Forest, then descended into the perpetually sunless black mountains.

Miasma surrounded them, poisonous insects were everywhere, and a blood evil qi permeated the air, continuously corroding Spiritual Origin.

“Hiss! Senior brother, is this the blood evil qi you mentioned? It’s actually able to even corrode my Spiritual Origin.”

Shi Yunyi caught a wisp of blood-colored mist in his palm, only to see the Spiritual Origin enveloping it being corroded with sizzling sounds.

“This blood evil belongs to a type of Yin Evil, judging by its power, it should be counted as Third Grade. Now I feel somewhat fortunate that I didn’t act recklessly back then, otherwise, I might have really died.” Zhong Lin said with a frown.

Yin Evil and Yang Evil are the kinds of powers that only experts in the Yin Yang Realm are qualified to come into contact with, otherwise, the first to suffer would be oneself.

Looking up at the blood-red cave not far away, it was from this cave that the blood evil qi drifted out.

Shi Yunyi also spotted the cave and subconsciously circulated his Spiritual Origin to gather in his eyes, when suddenly he felt that the blood-colored cave was like an ancient primordial beast opening its bloody maw, and an overwhelming sense of fear arose in him.

Suddenly, Shi Yunyi’s face went pale, his heart pounding wildly in his chest, as if it were about to explode, and the blood within him seemed uncontrollably about to gush out.

“Calm your mind!”

Just as Shi Yunyi felt on the verge of death, Zhong Lin’s hand suddenly pressed onto his shoulder, and a powerful force intervened, dispelling the pressure brought by the Blood Cave.

“Huff huff huff!”

Shi Yunyi’s eyes were full of horror, breathing heavily, and if Zhong Lin hadn’t stood right behind him, he probably would have already been so frightened that he’d flee beyond the range of the blood evil’s scope.

“What a terrifying Blood Cave, senior brother, what’s really in there? Just one glance makes me feel like my entire body’s blood is being drawn. If I stayed a bit longer, my heart might actually explode, and I’d die from body combustion.” Shi Yunyi said with deep apprehension.

Zhong Lin squinted his eyes slightly, his voice cold, “Blood being drawn, heart explosion, doesn’t that sound familiar?”

Shi Yunyi was taken aback for a moment, then he reacted, exclaiming in surprise, “The Blood Demon Clan?”

“It could also be the Nine Nether Demon Sect, but it’s definitely related to the Blood Demon Clan.” Zhong Lin replied.

“How… How could that be possible?”

Shi Yunyi murmured, “The Xuan Gui Continent is just an isolated island overseas, it could be called the Land of Absolute Spirit. How could it possibly be related to the Blood Demon Clan?”

“Don’t forget, you grew up here. If the offspring of Sin Blood can appear here, then what’s impossible about some demon spawn from the Nine Nether Demon Sect turning up? I even suspect this Blood Cave might have been left by one of your ancestors.”

Shi Yunyi was temporarily speechless as there was indeed that possibility.

“You step back a bit, I’ll go in and take a look.”

“Senior brother, be careful.”

Shi Yunyi didn’t say anything about going in together; he was aware of his own limitations. With his current cultivation level, going in would be more of a hindrance than anything useful.

Zhong Lin’s figure flickered, flying directly toward the Blood Cave.

The closer he got to the entrance of the cave, the denser the blood evil qi became, even giving a sense of tangibility, as if falling into a pool of blood, the dense bloody scent even comparable to poison, a single whiff could reduce one to a pool of blood.

Moreover, this blood evil qi contained a very strong corrosive force, constantly eroding Zhong Lin’s flesh and Spiritual Origin.

Yet Zhong Lin faced this blood evil qi as if it were nothing, walking leisurely, as these blood evils passed by like a gentle breeze, presenting no threat at all.

To say being at the Ninth Layer of the Life and Death Realm is to be a Great Ability is not an exaggeration, already making him one of the rare masters in the world, just trivial blood evil qi.

As Zhong Lin stepped into the Blood Cave, the dense blood evil qi around him suddenly disappeared, instead transforming into what appeared to be an ordinary cave, but the cave walls this time displayed a dark red color and emitted a faint fragrance.

Reaching out to press against the dark red wall, a faint warmth transmitted, judging from the touch, how could this be a wall? It was clearly a mass of flesh, like a living creature.

Zhong Lin furrowed his brows slightly and continued deeper into the cave without pause.

As he ventured deeper, the surrounding cave walls no longer resembled stone, instead increasingly appearing like flesh writhing, creating a rather eerie sight.
