Chapter 279 Thunder Order Repels the Inner Sect Elder! (Bonus Chapter!)
After a moment's thought, Wang Yu suddenly realized.
As expected, the mountain gate of the Reverse Spirit Blood Sect also had a geomantic layout, which had been adjusted by a geomancer. After being modified by human intervention, it became a human-made layout, but in essence, it was not weakened; on the contrary, it was strengthened.
In the art of Feng Shui, the human element is not necessarily inferior to the earth element; it all depends on the skill of the Feng Shui master.
The core of this situation lies in the nine-thousand-foot-deep blood pool waterfall behind the Blood Demon Palace, which is closely related to the floating star track instrument, and both are manipulated by human power.
Wang Yu could see that the original situation should have been...
The thirty-second ranked formation in the Earthly Branches is the [Nine Palaces Demon Star Flying to Heaven Formation]!
The original effect of this formation was to collect the blood from the nine directions of the earth veins, combine it with the power of the demonic stars in the celestial constellations, and obtain the creation of heaven and earth to transform it into a true demonic blood pool that could nourish demonic spirits.
In simple terms, a feng shui formation that can produce resources for Nascent Soul demonic cultivators to use for cultivation is a type of resource production.
He couldn't see the effect of the improvements.
He hasn't mastered the art of feng shui yet.
But he was certain that there was a secret spatial realm hidden within the Blood Demon Palace; he was not mistaken about that.
After standing outside the mountain gate for a while, Wang Yu came to his senses and immediately headed towards the entrance. As expected, the gatekeeper did not recognize him.
On his return journey, Wang Yu donned his beloved Xie Zhi crown, wore his law enforcement robe, and had a jade pendant hanging from his waist, walking with the stride of a dragon and the gait of a tiger. Naturally, no one was so oblivious as to try to stop him.
When he was building his foundation, he was somewhat apprehensive about all of this. But after he formed his core, Wang Yu was surprised to find that the gates of the Reverse Spirit Blood Sect were so prosperous.
Ignoring the bloody smell in every corner, it is far more prosperous than Guiling, after all, it has a permanent population of more than 200,000, all of whom are cultivators.
The desire for promotion lingered in his heart.
Wang Yu aimed and fled towards Cold Blood Peak. This was his third time climbing this peak. The first time was to see Su Yulong, and the second time was to ascend the Foundation Establishment Jade Book.
This third time, he was promoted to Inner Sect Elder, which allowed him to go directly to the top of Cold Blood Peak, to the Nascent Soul Ancestor's Daoist Temple, and the palace complex next to it.
This is a rare fourth-order spiritual vein.
It was the residence of the Lord of Cold Blood Mountain. As for the other Nascent Soul elders on this peak, they had all chosen a mountain nearby.
The sect will naturally gather the corresponding spiritual veins for the ancestors to enjoy. One vein per person is a bit of an exaggeration, but one vein per two people is still achievable.
As a dominant force, the territory of its sect naturally cannot be limited to the Nine Peaks. All the high mountains and steep ridges in the vicinity are within the sect's boundaries.
Without permission, disciples are not allowed to enter the Nascent Soul Ancestor's Daoist temple.
Wang Yu didn't notice that his figure flying towards Cold Blood Peak was noticed by someone with ulterior motives, and the news immediately spread to Evil Sword Peak.
Not long after.
Then, a group of Core Formation experts, acting on their own initiative, went out and left in a rather hostile manner, their intentions self-evident.
The parties involved are unaware for the time being, and even if they did find out, they wouldn't care. If there are still some headstrong individuals among Core Formation cultivators who are willing to fight to the death, then among Nascent Soul cultivators, it is the art of compromise.
To be honest, Black Heaven Talisman Lord and Luo Chen are not necessarily as close as father and son. Such a relationship is rare in the demonic path. More often, they are just backup figures.
Disciples are treated as private property by their masters, just like Situ Hong and his Peach Blossom Mother, where the relationship of possession is stronger than the emotional bond.
Undeniably, some of them are genuine successors.
But it would never be someone like Luo Chen. Demonic cultivators generally dislike people who are like themselves and rarely have principles or know how to be grateful. If they really want to take on disciples, they would choose to kidnap people from the Taihu Spirit Realm.
It is said that slave-catching teams would sometimes bring back highly qualified young children to provide this service, but such cases are quite rare.
The summit of Coldblood Peak.
Wang Yu retracted his Frost Moon Wings and landed on the steps at the entrance of the Jade Book Palace. There were very few people around, not even any guards.
After climbing several hundred steps...
The Jade Book Hall, piled high with soul tablets and soul lamps, came into view. Near the hall's entrance, an elderly late-stage Core Formation cultivator lay on an ice chair.
When Wang Yu came up, he squinted at him and muttered something.
"The elixir formed outside?"
"Yes, senior. I am Wang Yu, the lord of Guiling City. I just returned today."
"Lord Guiling?!!"
The old man immediately perked up.
"I knew there hadn't been any activity at the Tribulation Cliff lately. Turns out you ran all the way back from Yunling! Impressive! Really impressive! You've got some nerve!!"
Wang Yu smiled shyly.
"Does Senior mean that news of Little Fu Jun has already spread throughout the sect?"
"That's natural."
The old man stroked his beard and continued.
"Just call me Elder Yushu. You've already killed him, so why bother calling me Little Fu Jun? It's just pretentious."
"No, no, no, it was Xiao Fu who insisted on making things difficult for me. I accidentally killed him in a moment of carelessness. It was not my intention."
Elder Yushu chuckled.
"It's no use explaining to me. Look, the person is here."
Wang Yu turned around and saw six gray sword lights land on the steps of the Jade Book Hall, their cultivation levels being released without any concealment.
Three late-stage Core Formation cultivators and three mid-stage Core Formation cultivators.
Moreover, their aura quickly locked onto Wang Yu, and the sword rang out, the leader speaking without any politeness.
"You're Wang Yu? Come with us."
"Leave? Why should I go with you?"
This attitude immediately enraged the newcomer, who shouted, "Wang Yu, you killed Little Talisman Lord Luo Chen, and instead of going to Evil Sword Peak to apologize, you expect Black Heaven Talisman Lord to come and invite you personally?"
"Black Heaven Talisman Lord hasn't come yet, so why are you in such a hurry? Is Luo Chen your father or something?"
The man immediately turned red in the face and began to pant heavily.
He reached out to draw his sword, but his companion held his wrist and gestured to Elder Yu Shu, who was sitting calmly on the ice chair. The atmosphere immediately became tense.
It was clear that they were still rational and knew this was not the place to fight, but Wang Yu was not one to mince words and pretended to be surprised.
"So Luo Chen is your father! It's a misunderstanding!"
"you--"
The man was so angry that his voice became shrill.
"Wang Yu, you're finished. You've offended the Black Heaven Talisman Lord. Don't even think about continuing your cultivation in the Holy Sect. Get ready to have someone collect your corpse!"
Wang Yu sneered upon hearing this.
"As for Lord Heitian, I, Wang, will explain the whole story. You fools were probably instigated and rushed out without even realizing it, becoming cannon fodder."
"What do you mean? You're still talking big at a time like this."
To reach the Core Formation stage in the Reverse Spirit Blood Sect, one's aptitude cannot be poor, one's mind cannot be too dull, and one must possess basic judgment.
Hearing Wang Yu say that, he immediately felt something was wrong.
The fact that the other party was so calm and even dared to return to their sect shows that they were already confident about this matter.
The other disciples of the Black Heavenly Talisman Lord didn't come, but these outsiders did. Could it be...?
Wang Yu took out the Thunder Lord's Token and showed it to him.
“Go back to where you came from. If you come back to cause trouble again, you’re as good as dead.”
As elders of the sect in the late stage of Core Formation, these people were all much more powerful than the old man surnamed Qiao. Moreover, they came from the inner sect and each had their own background, so their status was no different from that of a true disciple.
Because of their superior cultivation level, the disciples of the various peaks had to treat them with the respect due to juniors.
When Luo Chen was alive, they couldn't possibly lower themselves to fawn over him because of face-saving and the hierarchy of their status.
However, he was also very concerned about Heitian Fujun's opinion. Since they were all from Xiejian Peak, it all came down to "human relationships and social customs." He should step forward, both morally and logically.
They can demand an explanation for what happened after Luo Chen's death.
After all, this is tantamount to currying favor with Lord Black Heaven Talisman!
However, if it involves another Nascent Soul ancestor, and he is the most untouchable late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator among them, then you should get as far away as possible.
Not to mention whether there is any resentment in their hearts.
And how could they not be familiar with the Nascent Soul cultivators who have already cultivated to this level, who are now the only ones left in the cultivation world?
It can be said that no one knows the aura and strength of the Nascent Soul Ancestor in the sect better than them!
Lei Jun's decree was like a bolt from the blue.
The six men, their faces as pale as corpses, bowed respectfully to Wang Yu in apology, then bowed to Elder Yu Shu before silently taking their leave.
This left many people who were paying attention to Cold Blood Peak and waiting to see what would happen somewhat confused.
Dude, you guys went there with such fanfare, and came back all slinking away without uttering a single curse. That's just too cowardly.
Who exactly is this Wang Yu?
Many people had doubts and went to inquire about it, and what they found out immediately surprised them.
Born a spirit slave, he used the Foundation Establishment Technique to reach the Foundation Stage, and now, at less than a hundred years old, you say he's already at the Core Formation stage? He even killed Little Fu Jun Luo Chen and three outer sect Core Formation cultivators.
Are you sure this isn't a scripted story?
As more people became interested, Wang Yu's deeds in Yunling were unearthed, and those with the ability and connections even learned about the cause of the struggle for Zhuyue Prefecture.
It's because the royal offerings of the city lord were stolen!
Our gaze returns to Coldblood Peak.
Elder Yu Shu glanced at the Thunder Lord Token in Wang Yu's hand, then stood up leisurely.
"I thought you were going to beat them up. Come in with me."
As Wang Yu set off to follow, he replied.
"Elder Yushu is too kind to me. They are all established seniors. I am but a junior and inexperienced student. How could I possibly defeat them?"
"You're being modest; you've imprinted your divine sense into it."
Elder Yushu tossed over a jade tablet, its shape quite different from those displayed in the main hall. Seeing his confusion, Elder Yushu chuckled and explained.
"This is a special perk for geniuses."
"Ordinary soul tablets will only break after half a day if you travel more than a thousand kilometers. But with this jade soul tablet, as long as you are in the Chiyuan territory, I will know immediately if you die."
"And send me the images of the thieves. Cold Blood Summit will avenge you."
"Uh, thank you for your kindness, Elder Yushu."
Wang Yu was considering imprinting his divine sense into it so it could help him take revenge after his death? It seemed like a good idea, but Luo Chen should receive the same treatment, right?
As for fighting among fellow disciples, that would definitely be against the rules.
But his master didn't pursue the matter, and the sect wouldn't interfere. If some of the cultivators from Sanmao City hadn't fled, the news would have spread much more slowly.
Of course, the best way is to not let others see it.
So what if he killed him? No law or rule can stop him. With the Thunder Lord's Decree protecting him, the Black Heaven Talisman Lord won't lay a hand on him.
At most, we can put some pressure on him regarding the sect's rules.
But this... Wang Yu can clear his sins by paying a sum of spirit stones, so it's not very meaningful.
"Congratulations, from now on you will be a member of the inner sect elders of Cold Blood Peak."
