Chapter 199: Seeking Wealth Through Danger

At this moment, Blood River’s mind was entirely focused on the great formation of his Blood Sect.

This formation had been crafted from the essence of blood extracted from the beasts in the Xianle Secret Realm during his imprisonment. Once activated, it would allow him to teleport out, and even if the Tianqing Sacred Ground could track him, by then, he would be long gone, soaring high into the skies!

However, the formation had not yet been activated. It still required more time.

He regretted it!

He shouldn’t have acted so recklessly now. He should have waited.

“Damn!” Blood River glared at Wang Fang and scolded.

What he didn’t expect was that Wang Fang, at this moment, no longer wore the humble smile he was used to seeing. Instead, he slowly took out a blood-colored orb from his robes.

The orb flashed with a bright red light, and in an instant, it connected to Blood River’s body.

“Damn it! What are you doing?!” Blood River, caught off guard, shouted at Wang Fang.

“Senior Blood River, you’ve been trapped here for so long, but the world outside is no longer as you remember. However, your power is of great use to me! I, Wang Tianwang, need to borrow your essence blood!” Wang Fang said respectfully.

But his words made Blood River’s skin crawl.

This thing, which he hadn’t even bothered to look at before, actually dared to plot against him!

“You dare?! You fool!” Blood River roared, gathering his blood energy to strike down Wang Fang.

As for the blood orb in front of Wang Fang, Blood River didn’t know its exact origin, but he could sense that it was definitely a top-tier spiritual treasure! If it weren’t for the fact that he hadn’t escaped yet, Blood River would have long snatched it from Wang Fang. How could he wait until now?

But just as he was about to make his move, Wang Fang slowly looked at him and said, “Senior Blood River, do you think you can escape the influence of the tainted bloodlight?”

“Tainted bloodlight? No! How could this thing exist?!” Blood River froze, then instinctively looked toward the blood orb in Wang Fang’s hand.

The orb hovered in mid-air, spinning harmlessly, giving the impression that nothing was wrong.

But Blood River suddenly felt uneasy.

It wasn’t just because of the name “tainted bloodlight,” but also because he couldn’t feel any of his blood energy stirring within him! This meant he couldn’t launch any attacks on Wang Fang!

“Damn it!” Blood River screamed, rage flooding his senses.

Mu Yunsu seized the opportunity.

The Xianle Secret Realm had opened a crack, but the time left for her was limited. If she allowed Blood River to escape, it would be very difficult to track him down within the secret realm again.

However, Wang Fang’s interference had given Mu Yunsu a chance.

“Blood River, this time, I will destroy both your body and soul!” Mu Yunsu gritted her teeth and shouted in rage. Immediately, a massive finger appeared in the sky, resembling a towering jade column, which descended toward Blood River’s head.

Chen Fei couldn’t help but marvel at the sight. “So this is the Dao Realm avatar ability? Incredible!”

Under Chen Fei’s gaze, Blood River’s entire body was pinned into the ground, as if nailed there by a massive force.

Wang Fang’s face grew serious. Without hesitation, he bit his tongue, spitting out a mouthful of essence blood, which he scattered onto the blood orb.

The once unremarkable blood orb suddenly grew tendrils that resembled countless wriggling hands, absorbing Wang Fang’s blood essence entirely. Then, it exploded with a blinding red light.

The red light connected to Blood River’s body, and even though he was suppressed by Mu Yunsu’s sky-reaching hand, he couldn’t escape the connection of this red light.

In the span of a single breath, Blood River, the fearsome demon cultivator who had once terrified the entire Xuanhuang Continent, was completely silenced.

The orb’s light gradually dimmed, as if it had consumed all its power, and it fell from the air.

Wang Fang quickly caught it in his hand and without hesitation, retreated swiftly.

Mu Yunsu, though furious, understood that Blood River was not to be killed carelessly. As the ancestor of the Blood Sect, his existence was far too troublesome.

But now, she was sure—Blood River was dead. His soul had dissipated, and he would never rise again.

This was obviously related to Wang Fang’s actions!

“Trying to escape?” Mu Yunsu glared at Wang Fang, who was attempting to flee, and snorted coldly.

The Blood Cloud Sect had openly provoked them, and surely Wang Fang, as an insider, had played a role! Mu Yunsu would not let him leave, especially since this fool had the audacity to steal from her face-to-face!

Chen Fei, though he considered himself bold, couldn’t help but admire Wang Fang’s actions.

Wang Fang’s audacity had truly surpassed his expectations. Taking Blood River’s essence blood and soul under the watchful eyes of a Dao Realm expert—how many people would dare to do that?

As Mu Yunsu’s cold snort echoed, the space around Wang Fang seemed to slow down, as if his movements were in slow motion.

Wang Fang’s face changed drastically, and he tried to force his body to turn. He immediately turned to face Mu Yunsu.

“Blood Devouring Secret Technique!” Wang Fang’s face quickly became covered in blood veins, making him look gruesome. His entire right hand turned into a bloody mess, with the blood-colored orb at its center.

At that moment, the orb seemed alive, as if something were about to emerge from it.

Mu Yunsu furrowed her brows, her cold voice ringing out, “You dare?! Come here!”

At her words, the blood orb that had been wriggling suddenly cracked open.

Inside it was a bloody eyeball.

The eyeball turned toward Mu Yunsu.

Mu Yunsu’s expression changed. “The Fallen God’s Eye, tainted bloodlight… Damn it, you actually opened the Blood Burial Secret Realm!”

“Heh, Mu Yunsu, only now do you realize? It’s a bit too late, isn’t it?” Wang Fang’s lips curled into a sinister smile, and the blood veins on his body glowed bright red. As he activated his full strength, the eyeball in his hand seemed to come alive, suddenly twisting and looking straight at Mu Yunsu.

Mu Yunsu’s face changed drastically, and she swiftly conjured an ice wall with a wave of her hand.

But the eyeball’s light easily pierced through the ice wall and continued to focus on Mu Yunsu.

Even Mu Yunsu, a Dao Realm cultivator, dared not take it head-on. She was forced out of the Xianle Secret Realm.

Meanwhile, in the Xianle Secret Realm, the blood light was still swirling. If anyone wanted to enter now, they would have to forcibly break in!

“Damn it!” Mu Yunsu gritted her teeth, her eyes filled with anger and fear.

This situation was far from trivial. It seemed she would have to think of a long-term strategy!

Inside the Xianle Secret Realm, Dong Feng and the others had been rejoicing over their rescue, but in the blink of an eye, the sky returned to its original appearance.

This sudden change left them bewildered.

“What’s going on?”

“Are we trapped again?”

Gong Tianshou immediately turned to Chen Fei. “Senior Chen, what’s happening?”

Chen Fei waved his hand. “The culprit, Blood River, is dead. There’s no danger in the Xianle Secret Realm anymore. But opening it still requires Mu Yunsu and the others to figure out how.”

“Everyone, take this opportunity and search for any fortuitous encounters!” With that, Chen Fei took off in pursuit of Wang Fang.

This man must know many secrets. Although Wang Fang had shown strength equal to Mu Yunsu’s, it was clear that he had used secret techniques!

Once those techniques were exhausted, how much power could Wang Fang truly have left?
