"Wow, where am I?!"
Jiang Yuan looked at the fiery red world with some confusion. Through his Samsara Eye, he sensed that another world existed within the volcano. Since the Companion God wasn't after the Eight Gates Body Technique, it was very likely that what she wanted was inside this volcano.
If a divine being could travel thousands of miles to get it, it must be no ordinary treasure.
"Since the Heavenly Eye can't detect it, let's switch to Death!"
Jiang Yuan extended his senses, extracting wisps of souls from the flames. These were traces left by the creatures who perished here, from which he could glean a great deal of information.
"Humans... Beastmen... and Gods!"
Jiang Yuan, who had been sensing for a long time, suddenly opened his eyes. With a thought, the magma in front of him began to gather, and soon a golden crow appeared before him, and all the information about this volcano emerged.
Mount Shenshi is indeed home to the Great Sun God, as described by the Japanese. However, this Great Sun God is not simply a person. The Great Sun represents a divine bird king—the three-legged golden crow. The deity behind it is the true Great Sun God. The complete Great Sun God is a combination of a person and a bird.
The Great Sun on the Japanese flag is a totem symbolizing the three-legged golden crow. However, even the most powerful combination cannot escape the punishment of the battlefield. In the Battle of Godsfall, the Great Sun God fell on the Divine Messenger Mountain, leaving behind all the inheritances of the entire human race. This is why Japan protects the Divine Messenger Mountain so carefully, because the inheritances here are not just one thing, but a blessing that can revitalize a country.
"Is the Great Sun God a member of the acquired divine race?" Jiang Yuan realized the crux of the problem. Both the Japanese god and the three-legged golden crow had the identity of a divine race.
"Depend on!"
Jiang Yuan immediately thought of the companion god outside. This place was practically her stronghold. How unlucky must he have been to stumble into the territory of the gods?
However, the surprise was only momentary. Jiang Yuan also understood the difference between the innate and acquired gods. The gods had no concept of race; they only pursued individual transcendence. Even if their own race was destroyed, they could remain indifferent. Therefore, the gods were a special race on the battlefield, only affecting the strongest individuals and having no impact on the overall situation of the battlefield.
As Jiang Yuan was pondering a countermeasure, he suddenly smelled a faint scent of blood. His long-standing vigilance made him immediately activate his Heavenly Eye to investigate. Upon investigation, he frowned, because he had encountered this scent not long ago.
"Vampires!"
Jiang Yuan drew his Gentleman's Sword, with sword energy swirling around him, constantly on guard against attacks from the vampires.
His actions quickly saved him from a devastating blow. Just as he raised his defenses, countless blood-red swords rained down on him.
"Kid, I'll borrow your head!"
Unpleasant laughter echoed all around, and the aura of a fifth-stage Nascent Soul Realm expert relentlessly pressed down on Jiang Yuan.
"Can you afford to borrow my head?"
Jiang Yuan gripped his sword and slashed horizontally, causing the magma in front of him to retreat three meters. At that moment, all the attacking blood swords trembled.
The Gentleman's Sword, the king of swords, coupled with his mastery of the profound mysteries of swordsmanship, makes the worship of ten thousand swords a real feat.
"In my Blood Domain, you have only death as your path!"
The vampire, brimming with confidence, did not reveal himself, yet he exerted immense pressure on Jiang Yuan.
"Weapon Spirit Skill, activate!"
Jiang Yuan has always been straightforward and blunt when it comes to these kinds of superstitious things.
Weapon Soul Skill - Righteous Judgment: Each attack carries a 1/10,000 chance of certain death (irreversible under the rules), and has an active skill, Judgment Time. During the Judgment Time, every attack will have a 100% chance of certain death.
Weapon Soul Skill - Limitless: When Limitless is activated, the weapon will ignore space, time, and rules and force a hit. The energy consumption will increase or decrease depending on the degree of breaking the restrictions.
To deal with this kind of vampire whose main body is blood, Wuji can perfectly lock onto his body. Even if he has millions of drops of blood, he cannot escape the Gentleman's Sword.
"Sword Drawing Stance!"
A swift sword strike sliced through the air, slicing countless drops of blood in two, including the vampire hidden within them.
A young man fell from the void, his expression one of shock, for he had never imagined that a Supreme God Realm expert could force him out of the void with a single sword strike; it was unimaginable.
"Who exactly are you? There's no one this powerful in Japan!"
The vampire who was forced into existence is a very young man, but his age is definitely measured in thousands of years. This is also a major advantage of vampires. They have a lifespan that far exceeds that of other intelligent beings, and they also have immortal youth thanks to the nourishment of their blood.
"Did that woman send you to kill me?" Jiang Yuan had already guessed the answer, but he still wanted to ask again.
"Killing you will grant me divine status, so accept your fate!"
The vampire made another move. He did not realize the seriousness of the situation because he was forced out by Jiang Yuan. After all, the enemy in front of him was only a low-level Supreme God Realm cultivator, which posed no threat to him, a fifth-level Transformation God Realm cultivator.
This time, the vampires held nothing back, their blood surging in the flames, and this scene gave Jiang Yuan a sudden insight.
"Blood Secret, rebirth from a drop of blood."
Jiang Yuan's blood surged like a river. He never believed in the idea of relying on a single skill to succeed. Specializing in one area might allow you to reach the pinnacle in that area, but for the diverse universe, achieving the ultimate balance of development is the true path. Therefore, the vampires who solely draw power from blood were merely objects of study for him, objects that allowed him to unlock the potential of his blood.
The energies in his blood kept clashing. Jiang Yuan used his weakness to fight his opponent's strength. Although he was completely suppressed, he learned more and more from it.
