The coffin gradually ascended, hovering before the blood-bone man.
Ye Wushuang glanced over, his eyebrows raising slightly.
Then, the blood-bone man gripped the edges of the coffin with both hands, as streams of life force surged upward from the altar’s surface.
”The Blood Sacrifice Method!”
While fighting, Ye Wushuang cast another look, his eyebrows twitching.
”This guy is trying to revive someone using the Blood Sacrifice Method!”
At this moment.
Almost all of Xuan Yutang’s companions had perished, leaving only him, wounded and forced to fight back-to-back against the mountain wall alongside Ye Wushuang and Pei Wenjie.
Huang Yu, tending to the severely injured Pei Wenxiu, muttered with a grimace, “My grand ambitions… is this how they end…”
Indeed, Ye Wushuang, Xuan Yutang, and Pei Wenjie were formidable—one at the seventh tribulation of the Arrogant Myriad Realm, and two at the late stage of the Star-Shattering Realm.
But the number of blood-armored men gathering around was simply too many, with the weakest being at least early-stage Star Gathering Realm, and many at mid-stage or late-stage. Even if the three of them held on stubbornly, they couldn’t last much longer.
Suddenly.
As the five fell into dire straits, the blood-bone man on the altar gently pushed the coffin with his palm.
”If you open the coffin now, the person you wish to save will turn into a skeleton, just like you…”
Ye Wushuang shouted loudly.
In an instant.
The blood-bone man on the altar trembled slightly with his skeletal fingers, then paused.
The blood-armored men surrounding and attacking them also stopped one by one, staring fixedly at the group from a distance of three zhang.
Then, the blood-bone man turned stiffly toward them, slowly extending his finger to point directly at Ye Wushuang.
The next moment.
Ye Wushuang’s body floated uncontrollably toward the blood-bone man.
As Ye Wushuang landed on the altar, he immediately sensed a unique flow of blood and qi.
The Blood Sacrifice Method was quite similar to the Blood Reversal Method.
However, the Blood Reversal Method involved a living person on the verge of death using an extraordinary means to drain and preserve their blood and qi in the corpse. After years of fluctuation and baptism with rare treasures, the blood and qi would be reinfused to bring the person back to life.
Tang Bingwen was revived using this very method.
The Blood Sacrifice Method is entirely different.
It is about reviving the dead!
This is even more heaven-defying.
Ye Wushuang didn’t know who the Bloodbone Man wanted to revive.
But now, trapped in a desperate situation, he had no choice but to gamble.
”You…”
Suddenly,
the Bloodbone Man spoke, his voice hoarse and deep.
”If you deceive me, you’ll wish for death but find no escape!”
Hearing this, Ye Wushuang couldn’t help but say, “The Blood Sacrifice Method is inherently heaven-defying. No one can guarantee its success. The success rate is less than one in ten.”
”However, if you continue with your current approach, failure is certain.”
At these words, the Bloodbone Man’s body trembled slightly, as if suppressing an outburst of emotion.
”Speak! I’m listening!” the Bloodbone Man said.
”These crimson pearls are all refined from pure blood essence. You’re Gu Wentian, aren’t you?”
The Bloodbone Man’s fingers twitched, and he nodded slowly.
”From what I know, the Fa Tian Xiang Di Jue you practice involves killing to extract blood. It seems your achievement as a Sage wasn’t by taking all the blood essence of those you killed!”
”These crimson pearls contain pure blood essence, which you preserved to awaken the person inside the coffin.”
The Bloodbone man turned to look at the coffin and continued, “She is the person I care about most in this life. Sadly, I met her at an age when I was least capable of protecting her, and ended up causing her death. Even if I become a Sage in this lifetime, even if I perish and my path vanishes, she is the one I can never let go of!”
”The reason I came to this place was also for her, but in the end, I was too arrogant and died here.”
”Even in death, I want her to live!”
Hearing these words, Ye Wushuang’s eyes held a trace of admiration.
Although Zhou Yuan had evaluated Gu Wentian as someone who cultivated martial techniques cruelly, his deep affection alone was worthy of recognition.
In this world, good and evil have never been judged in a single stroke.
”I can only promise that I will do my utmost to help you correct your mistakes. As for whether the woman in the coffin will wake up, I make no guarantees!”
The Bloodbone man looked at the coffin, then at Ye Wushuang, and finally nodded slowly.
In truth, Gu Wentian himself also knew that his understanding of this blood sacrifice method was only superficial. The reason he spared no cost and clung to this even after death was entirely to seize that sliver of possibility.
Deep down, he understood the high likelihood of failure.
But now that Ye Wushuang knew of this path, he was willing to let him try.
”You should leave this place first!”
Ye Wushuang then spoke, waving at Zhou Yuan in the distance.
”Old Senior Zhou, come give me a hand!”
Hearing this, Zhou Yuan instinctively refused.
But the blood-bone man reached out with a palm, and with a telekinetic grab, he pulled both the person and the cauldron over.
Zhou Yuan landed on the altar, casting a resentful look at Ye Wushuang.
It’s true that he’s a Saint, but right now, he’s a heavily crippled Saint—even a peak or grand completion Star-Snatcher Realm expert could overpower him.
”You brat, why drag me into this?” Zhou Yuan grumbled.
”Old Senior Zhou just needs to activate the Tianyuan Saint Cauldron and lend me a hand. It won’t be too hard.”
Zhou Yuan snorted.
But when he spotted Gu Wentian standing nearby, he instinctively shrunk his neck slightly.
This guy—he was no match for him right now.
”Can I… not help?” Zhou Yuan asked Ye Wushuang in a weak voice.
”Hmm?”
The blood-bone man turned his gaze over, slowly raising his palm.
”Heh heh heh…”
Zhou Yuan immediately said, “Gu Wentian, I know you—Gu Wentian, the Great Saint of Tongcang Domain! I’m Zhou Yuan from Xuanyuan Domain. Haven’t you heard of me?”
At these words, Gu Wentian’s brow furrowed slightly before he shook his head.
”Then do you know Tao Qingyang from Xuanyuan Domain?”
Gu Wentian nodded at once.
”That’s my sworn brother from another father and mother!” Zhou Yuan said with a laugh.
”Alright, alright…”
Ye Wushuang pulled Zhou Yuan and said, “You won’t be in any danger, don’t worry.”
”Helping Senior Gu—if this Ning Xi girl can be revived, Senior Gu definitely won’t kill us. If not…we’ve still done our best, and whether Senior Gu kills or skins us is entirely up to him.”
Hearing this, Zhou Yuan sighed and said, “Being saved by you, kid, is both a blessing and a curse.”
Zhou Yuan had finally figured it out—Ye Wushuang, this young man, was like a vortex, with everything revolving around him.
Good things were like this.
Bad things were also like this.
……
Soon.
The blood-bone man retreated from the altar and stood at the edge, looking quite nervous.
Zhou Yuan stood beside Ye Wushuang and asked, “Do you really know the blood sacrifice method, kid?”
”I know a thing or two.”
“……”
Seeing Zhou Yuan speechless, Ye Wushuang laughed and said, “I might joke with your life, but I wouldn’t joke with mine.”
”Earlier, I asked if you knew of a martial artist surnamed Tang here. It’s because I once saw a coffin in a hidden place. The person inside was revived through a blood reversal method, and the coffin was engraved with the character ‘Tang.’ But after reviving, that person lost their memory, so I named them Tang Bingwen…”
Hearing this, Zhou Yuan was instantly dumbfounded.
