Peerless Divine Doctor

Chapter 498: Chapter 498: Blood Demon Pool_1

Blood Shadow and his two companions all had a change in expression.

Blood Shadow glanced at the two Forbidden Land elders, ”Take them and enter the Forbidden Land immediately to find the Blood Demon Cave.”

Following that, the five of them, along with the two Forbidden Land elders, entered the cave of the Forbidden Land, while all other members of the Blood Wolves organization stood guard outside.

Soon, the Grand Elder arrived first at the scene. Seeing the situation in the valley, his expression darkened. When his gaze fell upon the members of the Blood Wolves organization, his face turned cold. Wielding his staff, he struck repeatedly, annihilating all of them.

Inside the cave, Blood Shadow, his four companions, and the injured wolf brought the two Forbidden Land elders to the end of the cave, where there stood a large blood-colored door.

The three characters for ”Blood Demon Cave” were prominently displayed, clearly indicating this was the place Blood Shadow and his group were searching for—the Blood Demon Cave left by the Blood Demon Ancestor of times past, containing the Blood Demon Pool and the Blood Pearl.

”It won’t open!”

However, after attempting to open it, Blood Shadow and the others found the door would not budge, no matter how much strength they exerted.

”It seems that the people of the Miao Tribe have modified this door,” mused Xue You, his gaze flickering.

”Speak up, how do we open this door?” Blood Shadow’s gaze swept fiercely towards the two severely wounded Forbidden Land elders.

”You band of demons, don’t even think about opening the Blood Demon Cave and bringing calamity upon the world again,” the two Forbidden Land elders retorted coldly.

”Damned old men, will you talk or not?”

Xue Kong slapped one of them across the face, drawing blood from the elder’s mouth, his expression fierce.

”What do you think you’re doing?”

Suddenly, a cold reprimand sounded as the figure of the Miao Tribe’s Grand Elder appeared, his gaze icy as he stared down the group.

The expressions of Blood Shadow and his companions changed upon seeing this newly arrived Grand Elder.

”She is the Grand Elder of the Miao Tribe, with great strength,” said Xue You, his face grave as he assessed the opponent.

”Xue Kong, Xue Yan, take her down immediately,” Blood Shadow commanded coldly.

Without wasting words, Xue Kong and Xue Yan took action. They only had half an hour, after which they would become extremely weak, no match for the Grand Elder of the Miao Tribe. They had to make use of the secret technique’s remaining power to defeat her.

As soon as Xue Kong and Xue Yan made their move, they went all out, while the Grand Elder countered their attacks with his staff continuously.

Not long after, Ye Luo arrived at the scene with the wild bear, Xiao Ling, and the Second Elder, their expressions changing at the sight of the battle.

Blood Shadow and his allies faced the newcomers with solemn expressions, thankful that the newcomers’ strength didn’t seem too formidable. Suddenly, an idea struck Xue You, who snatched the neck of a Forbidden Land elder and shouted coldly at the Grand Elder, ”Stop right there.”

Hearing Xue You’s command and seeing him holding the elder’s neck, the Grand Elder’s expression shifted slightly, and he halted his attack.

”Since you are the Grand Elder of the Miao Tribe, you must know how to open this door, right?” Xue You said, addressing the Grand Elder.

Meanwhile, Ye Luo’s gaze had already swept towards the door. He activated his Clairvoyant Eye, attempting to see what was inside.

However, to his surprise, his Clairvoyant Eye failed to penetrate the door. It was the first time the Clairvoyant Eye had ever failed him, suggesting something truly unusual about this place.

”Don’t tell them!” said the Forbidden Land elder, his face pale as he spoke.

”You won’t talk, huh.” Blood Shadow suddenly increased the strength in his hands, making the Forbidden Land Elder struggle immensely to breathe, looking as if he was about to suffocate.

”Please no!” Panic filled the faces of Second Elder and Miao Xiaoling.

”I’ll talk!” The Grand Elder’s expression changed, and he spoke.

Immediately, Blood Shadow and his companions’ faces lit up with joy.

”To open this door, the blood of the Miao Tribe Saintess must drop onto it,” the Grand Elder declared.

”The Saintess’ blood!” All of Blood Shadow’s group frowned slightly.

”My lord, that woman there is the Miao Tribe Saintess,” the Wounded Wolf suddenly pointed at Miao Xiaoling, and then all four members of Blood Shadow’s group turned their eyes towards her, their expressions revealing a touch of excitement.

Miao Xiaoling’s expression changed as her eyes became somewhat frantic.

”You, come here and open the door right now, or I assure you, you’ll all die here,” Blood Shadow said, staring at Miao Xiaoling with a cold command.

”Alright,” Miao Xiaoling pondered for a moment then nodded.

”Be careful,” Ye Luo couldn’t help but caution her. Miao Xiaoling glanced at Ye Luo and walked towards the grand gate of the Blood Demon Cave, all eyes fixated on her.

Soon, Miao Xiaoling was in front of the door. She bit her finger, letting a drop of fresh blood fall on the crimson door, and the blood immediately merged into it. The door emanated a burst of blood light, which sent Miao Xiaoling flying backward, crashing to the ground.

”Xiao Ling!” Ye Luo rushed over to help her up, and at that moment, the door rumbled open. Blood Shadow and his companions, all excited, threw the two Forbidden Land Elders to the ground and charged in.

”Old Ancestor, are you all right?” the Grand Elder gazed at the two Forbidden Land Elders and couldn’t help but ask.

”Ah... It seems everything was already destined,” the two Forbidden Land Elders sighed, their expressions growing even paler.

”I will definitely stop them,” the Grand Elder said and then rushed in.

”Xiao Ling, you stay here,” Ye Luo directed Miao Xiaoling, and then also dashed in, with the Feral Bear following closely behind him into the Blood Demon Cave.

Upon entering the Blood Demon Cave, they were hit by a tangible aura of murderous blood, the entire space filled with the scent of blood, causing an extremely uncomfortable feeling.

Very soon, Ye Luo spotted Blood Shadow and his group, who were now focused on a huge Blood Pool at the center. The water inside the pool was bubbling, boiling turbulently.

To the side of the Blood Pool lay a skeleton, and above the pool hovered a black curved knife, radiating a strong light that enveloped the pool. The knife was carved with various strange and mysterious patterns.

”This is the Blood Demon Pool!” Blood Shadow and his group fixed their eyes on the pool, their expressions becoming thrilled.

”That’s right, this must be the Blood Demon Pool formed by the lifeblood of Blood Demon Ancestor, and this skeleton should be Blood Demon Ancestor’s,” Xue You’s eyes sparkled with excitement.

”It seems we’ve really achieved a great feat this time,” Xue Kong commented, and suddenly stepped forward, trying to approach the Blood Demon Pool.

Suddenly, a powerful force erupted from the black curved knife, causing Xue Kong to stagger back while blood seeped from the corner of his mouth.

Immediately, all four members of Blood Shadow’s group were startled and fixed their gaze on the black curved knife.

”Could this be the ancestral Miao Knife once owned by the Miao Tribe’s ancestor Chi You?” Blood Shadow and his companions stared at the knife in astonishment.
