He glanced at the few people guarding the altar.
She took out an incense stick and lit it.
As the fragrance entered the four people's nostrils, their pupils gradually lost focus.
Yun Zhiyi jumped onto the altar.
The altar is very large, with a total of three levels.
The bottommost square base is constructed from a strange red mineral.
She could sense a very uncomfortable energy emanating from this mineral.
It wasn't demonic energy, but rather some kind of radioactive radiation. However, I haven't investigated it in detail, so I don't know what it affects for the time being.
Judging from the situation of these disciples stationed here, either they have a way to resist the radiation, or the radiation is harmless to their bodies.
The second floor and above is a volcano-shaped building, surrounded by various strange runes.
I couldn’t sense any power in the runes; they were just patterns on the surface.
One side of the building clearly has a doorway.
Normally, people are used for sacrifices, and this is the passageway they would pass through.
She studied it for a while, slowly probing the door with her spiritual energy, exploring it carefully.
They quickly located the mechanism and opened it successfully.
When the door was opened, even without using one's spiritual sense to investigate, one could still feel the intense demonic energy rushing towards them.
Her expression changed slightly, and she immediately used her spiritual power to seal the doorway, preventing the demonic energy from leaking out.
Then he stepped inside and closed the door.
Shortly after the door closed, the four people, whose eyes had been unfocused, suddenly jolted.
He blinked in confusion, as if he had suddenly woken up from a nap.
He was afraid that others would find out that he was coughing while on duty.
They all tacitly kept quiet.
Inside the Demon Tower, Yun Zhiyi enveloped herself in a layer of spiritual power to prevent the demonic energy from invading.
However, this demonic energy has an extremely strong corrosive ability, and even spiritual power cannot completely resist it.
The spiritual energy she used for defense was being corroded layer by layer.
Even so, she didn't use the purification power within her abilities and continued to float down at a steady pace.
The deeper you go, the denser and purer the demonic energy becomes.
When you land on the first small platform, there is nothing but a circular hole the size of a wheel in the middle.
The ground was either covered with white bones that had turned red and black from the demonic energy, or with rotting corpses that had completely decomposed and smelled of mutton.
They piled up and stacked together, forming a funnel-shaped mountain around them.
Judging from the sheer number of these remains, there must have been at least a thousand people.
And these are probably still struggling desperately to survive.
Most of them probably fell into the hole.
She looked into the round hole, her brows furrowing unconsciously.
Below appears to be a pool of blood.
The entire scene was a strange mix of black and red.
She only tentatively released her spiritual sense, and before she even made contact, it felt like she was burned by fire.
'Zero 11, can you check the blood pool?'
'No, it feels like something's covering it up; I can't find out.'
Yun Zhiyi took out a spiritual plant from her spatial storage and threw it down.
Before the spiritual plants even reached the blood pool, they instantly turned black and then decayed into ash.
Seeing this, she narrowed her eyes slightly.
He took out another spiritual plant, wrapped it with purifying power, and threw it down.
This strange thing happened.
The spiritual plant fell into the pool, just before it was about to come into contact with the blood.
The blood below seemed to suddenly come alive, sensing the threat posed by this thing.
It immediately created a vortex.
As the spiritual plant fell, the vortex grew deeper and deeper, but it never touched the spiritual plant.
'The power of purification really works!' Ling Yaoyao cheered softly.
Yun Zhiyi's brow remained furrowed, showing no sign of relaxation.
I always felt it wasn't that easy.
Sure enough, she soon realized the Blood Pool's intentions.
The blood was not meant to avoid the spiritual plants enveloped by the purifying power.
Instead, it lures the enemy into a trap, then uses the impact of the vortex to transform the demonic energy into a demonic blade, gradually consuming the purifying power of the spiritual plant.
Once the purifying power has thinned to the point where it can no longer burn them, it directly engulfs the spiritual plants.
Her pupils narrowed slightly; this blood pool actually possessed consciousness.
I thought of the blood calamity formation process described by the water unicorn.
She suspected that the blood pool below might be an artificial blood curse.
It's just not ready yet; it's only a semi-finished product.
Therefore, absorbing the blood curse energy in the blood pool will turn one into a demonic cultivator, rather than a true demon.
However, this semi-finished power is unstable, and if absorbed into the body in the early stages, it may indeed enhance internal strength.
However, if one loses their senses, they will gradually be influenced by demonic forces and become a killing machine that loses its self-awareness.
It is possible that the so-called secret method of Luoshui Palace was actually a method to create blood calamity.
As for where the Luoshui Palace got such strange and mysterious techniques, that's something worth pondering.
However, according to the Water Kirin, the Blood Calamity cannot be formed casually.
In the past, during the battle between gods and demons, almost all living beings in the world perished, which led to the birth of the Blood Calamity.
She didn't believe that ordinary humans could easily create a half-finished Blood Calamity with consciousness through simple human sacrifices.
Perhaps there are other secrets in the pool; we must go down and explore them no matter what.
And for some reason, after arriving here, she had a strange feeling about her.
It was as if something was calling to her.
She vaguely felt that the presence that was calling her was very important and crucial.
Thinking of this, she enveloped herself in a thick layer of purifying power.
Seeing this, Ling Yaoyao knew she wanted to be decisive, so she quickly advised her.
"Host, don't go down yet. It's too dangerous down there. Let's figure things out first."
'Only by going down there can we find out.'
Yun Zhiyi replied with a sentence and then floated down.
As she hovered above the blood, the blood below seemed to be startled and began to churn.
It was bubbling and gurgling, like it was being boiled.
A thick, pungent smell of blood wafted over, forming a red mist that continuously enveloped her and eroded her purification barrier.
Yun Zhiyi smiled slightly, casually reinforcing the weakened barrier with several more layers, and simultaneously unleashing a purifying force to devour all the blood mist.
The blood pool below seemed to be stunned, but then completely enraged.
The blood pool surged even more violently, baring its fangs and claws as if trying to scare her away.
Unfortunately, I've met my nemesis today.
Yun Zhiyi quickened her pace and continued to sink.
The blood quickly disappeared.
They actually managed to carve out a cylindrical space for it.
Countless demonic blades frantically slashed at the purification barrier surrounding her.
But for every layer consumed, Yun Zhiyi reinforces it with two more layers.
This causes the purification barrier to become larger and larger.
The cylinders are getting bigger and bigger.
At this moment, Yunzhi seemed to sense something and suddenly stopped sinking, instead drifting to the left.
The blood shuddered, and the blood on the left side immediately dispersed, clearing out another channel.
Yun Zhiyi felt no pleasure whatsoever; in fact, her mood was heavy.
Don't be fooled by the fact that the demonic energy can't break through her purification barrier.
That's because her extraordinary energy is constantly circulating.
These purifying powers are already very pure and strong, yet they can still be corroded by demonic energy.
It's only a semi-finished product, yet it's already this powerful.
If a true blood curse were to occur...
No wonder the Heavenly Dao was so tense and anxious.
It's enough to destroy the world in an instant.
She drifted along as she thought.
We finally arrived at a place, and then continued to sink.
When it sinks to the bottom of the pool.
The feeling of being summoned became increasingly pronounced.
