Eternal Sacred King

“Why?”

Su Zimo asked.

If he was not wrong, Monk Daming had already cultivated his fiend techniques to a terrifying level and even derived a Bloodline phenomenon.

In fact, that Bloodline phenomenon even surpassed Monk Daming’s phenomenon of the Buddhist monasteries!

It was indeed quite a ridiculous reason for Monk Daming to trigger his killing intent towards Su Zimo if the latter had used the Blood Refinement Fiend Sutra.

Monk Daming remained silent for a moment and did not reply to Su Zimo’s question directly. He merely said meaningfully, “Take it that you’ve forgotten about that fiend technique. Don’t ever use it.”

That was something that Su Zimo had realized a long time ago even without Monk Daming’s reminder.

Therefore, ever since he came out of Thousand Demon Valley, the thought of activating the Blood Refinement Fiend Sutra even on the brink of death had never crossed his mind.

“This fiend technique seems to be similar to the cultivation techniques and secret skills of the Blood Vine race,”

Su Zimo recalled a terrifying speculation that circled in his mind earlier on and probed.

Monk Daming said, “The Blood Refinement Fiend Sutra was created from the cultivation techniques and secret skills of the Blood Vine race to begin with. However, it’s much stronger than the cultivation techniques of the Blood Vine race!”

“Although the Blood Vine race is bloodthirsty, they require fresh blood. That’s why they reared these cultivators from Southern Duel Sect and ensured that fresh blood could be absorbed and refined at any moment.”

“However, the Blood Refinement Fiend Sutra is different. You should know that as well.”

Su Zimo nodded.

The terrifying thing about the Blood Refinement Fiend Sutra was that it could refine all bloodlines for its own use.

Even on the battlefield where countless cultivators died, it could still refine them and turn them into its own power!

Su Zimo glared at Monk Daming and asked again, “How did Dao Lord Blood Fiend in the past learn the cultivation techniques and secret skills of the Blood Vine race?”

“You should have guessed it given your thoughts, right?”

Even though Monk Daming revealed a huge secret, his tone was calm. “Blood Fiend was half a Blood Vine clansman to begin with. He’s a remnant of the Blood Vine race.”

Indeed!

Earlier on, Su Zimo contemplated the possibility that Dao Lord Blood Fiend was related to the Blood Vine race.

To think that Dao Lord Blood Fiend was a remnant of the Blood Vine race!

“Is he still alive?”

Su Zimo finally asked the greatest question in his mind!

Monk Daming lowered his head slightly in silence.

“I don’t know,”

A long time later, Monk Daming said softly with a conflicted expression, “Perhaps.”

He seemed like he did not wish to talk about the matter and changed the topic. “Any other questions?”

Su Zimo knew that given the way Monk Daming acted, even if he continued pressing the issue, he would not be able to get an answer.

Pondering for a moment, Su Zimo asked, “Where are the survivors of Southern Duel Sect?”

Monk Daming said, “They’re fine. Before that, I used the Grand Primordium Ancient Temple to take them away from Six Stars Mountain. They should have escaped long ago.”

“Where’s Ming Zhen?”

Su Zimo asked again, “The little monk beside me.”

“What do you think?”

Monk Daming asked with a fake smile and a deep gaze.

Su Zimo’s heart skipped a beat as he blurted, “Ming Zhen didn’t leave at all and is still here!”

“That’s right,”

Monk Daming nodded and waved his sleeves.

Suddenly, the void around Su Zimo rippled like water.

Ming Zhen’s figure gradually appeared.

At that moment, Ming Zhen was pursing his lips tightly—he was on the brink of a breakthrough and his scrawny body was drenched in sweat!

“Amazing capabilities,”

Su Zimo could not help but praise.

Actually, Su Zimo had always been doubtful.

It was only logical that Monk Daming could shift everyone from Southern Duel Sect away stealthily.

After all, he had fought against the Blood Vine race back then.

Everyone from Southern Duel Sect was reared far away and nobody paid attention to them. That was the reason why Monk Daming could take so many living people away from Six Stars Mountain.

However, Ming Zhen was right by his side right under the noses of many Blood Vine Mighty Figures and Half-Martial Ancestors—how could Monk Daming take Ming Zhen away silently?

Now, Su Zimo finally understood.

Ming Zhen did not leave at all.

However, Monk Daming took advantage of the moment when Su Zimo was fighting against the experts of the Blood Vine race and released an illusion technique to hide Ming Zhen!

Su Zimo had witnessed the brilliance of Monk Daming’s illusion technique back in the Grand Primordium Ancient Temple.

However, it was still admirable that he was able to deceive so many Mighty Figures of the Blood Vine race and him!

Of course, if Su Zimo had not fought against the experts of the Blood Vine race, Monk Daming would naturally not have had the chance to attack, let alone hide everything.

“What’s up with the Southern Duel Six Stars Formation?”

Su Zimo asked, “There are six Blood Vine Half-Martial Ancestors guarding Six Stars Mountain. Even if your methods are extraordinary, it’s impossible for you to infiltrate stealthily and set up such a mysterious and powerful formation without the detection of a Blood Vine Mighty Figure or Half-Martial Ancestor.”

An array formation had to be drawn preemptively.

This was an extremely massive project that consumed the most mental and physical energy.

The Southern Duel Six Stars Formation could even kill Conjoint Body Mighty Figures with ease. Without a year or so, it would be difficult to set it up!

That was also the reason why Su Zimo was puzzled.

“Southern Duel Six Stars Formation…”

Monk Daming’s eyes were filled with reminiscence as he said slowly with a sad expression, “The terrain of Southern Duel Sect is unique. The six main peaks are born naturally and correspond to the stars in the skies to begin with.”

“40,000 years ago, the Founder Master of Southern Duel Sect came here and discovered this strange terrain. He then established his sect here.”

At the mention of Southern Duel Sect’s Founder Master, Monk Daming sighed gently. “I had a good relationship with him and he invited me over. We were the ones who set up this Southern Duel Six Stars Formation jointly.”

“Unfortunately, when my old friend passed, Southern Duel Sect no longer had a successor. Nobody in the sect could activate this formation and it was abandoned.”

Monk Daming sighed sadly.

In that case, this formation was indeed set up by Monk Daming.

However, it was set up 40,000 years ago!

After 40,000 years, Monk Daming had returned to this old place. However, things had changed and the world had changed. That sadness and loss was something that no one could understand.

He was old friends with the Founder Master of Southern Duel Sect.

That was probably the same reason why he saved everyone from Southern Duel Sect.

“The Southern Duel Six Stars Formation has no formation eyes,”

Monk Daming suddenly asked, “I heard that you have some attainments in array formations as well. If you fall into the Southern Duel Six Stars Formation, how would you dispel it?”

His question seemed like a test.

Pondering for a moment, Su Zimo said, “The Southern Duel Six Stars Formation uses the six main peaks as a medium to draw in the power of the stars in the skies. On the surface, there are no formation eyes. However, in reality, the six main peaks have replaced the formation eyes!”

“As long as I can shatter any of the main peaks, the formation will naturally collapse on its own!”

“Good, good, good!”

Monk Daming nodded repeatedly. “You truly live up to your reputation as the strongest monster incarnate in history.”

Monk Daming was one of the unprecedented monster incarnates to begin with and there was probably no one in the world who could obtain such an appraisal from him.

In truth, both of them harbored a hint of admiration towards the other in their hearts.
