Star Martial Era: The Way of Star Light Cultivation

Chapter 545: Chapter 229: Blood Soul Summon_2

The immense power of the Divine Soul surged.

In an instant, Hu Changyan’s orifices spewed blood, and he stood frozen on the spot as the Starlight scattered, plummeting toward the ground.

As the piercing sound of tearing through air had just begun, the Void-Breaking Arrow Light, like a venomous snake, blasted into the back of Hu Changyan’s head.

Bang!

Hu Changyan’s head burst open like a watermelon!

”Thrilling!”

From behind, Mo Ji of the Demon Arrow laughed heartily, ”Qi, fighting alongside you is just thrilling!”

Qi Shanye chuckled. Back in the days when Lingji Star Hall still existed, they had fought together and often triumphed despite being the underdogs.

However, joining forces to slay a Sixth Tier Peak Expert was a first for them.

Their previous best achievement was merely inflicting heavy injuries on a Sixth Tier Middle Period Expert in cooperation.

Moreover, the reason they were able to jointly strangle this Hu Fu today was primarily because the Sixth Tier Expert’s focus had been on saving someone, not on combat.

In his eagerness to save Hu Changyan, he had forsaken defense.

It had given them the opportunity to slaughter him.

Otherwise, severely wounding him would have been easy, but killing him would have been incredibly difficult!

”Do you think...”

Just as Qi was smirking in self-satisfaction, all of a sudden he saw a wisp of blood light rise from Hu Changyan’s corpse, something between illusion and reality. But this blood light was emanating fluctuations of the Divine Soul!

Almost simultaneously, Qi’s face turned pale with shock!

As the fluctuations of the Divine Soul began, they intended to disperse the blood light.

Qi reacted quickly, but the blood light was faster.

In the next moment, the blood light, as if it had found its target, shot out like a bolt of crimson lightning, and directly blasted into the body of Mo Ji, the Demon Arrow.

The speed was incredibly fast!

Mo Ji couldn’t even react before the blood light had plunged into his body and vanished.

Mo Ji’s face abruptly turned to one of stunned surprise.

At the same moment, the brilliant Starlight of the Star-picking Tower high in the sky suddenly all converged, becoming plain and unadorned while Xu Jin stepped out of the annex of the Star-picking Tower.

The moment Xu Jin stepped out, he happened to see the blood-colored lightning that had struck his uncle Mo Ji.

But it was as if Uncle Mo Ji was unharmed, only his expression was a bit strange.

Qi Shanye, however, had turned extremely pale.

”Teacher, Uncle, what was that blood-colored lightning just now?” Xu Jin asked in surprise.

A bitter look spread across Qi Shanye’s face, and Mo Ji also wore a wry smile.

”Alright, I guess I’ve hit a stroke of big luck.”

”My trouble has been resolved, but I never expected it would bring you such a big problem!” Qi Shanye said with a wry smile.

He had just killed Hu Xuechuan, and even destroyed the Star Positioning Plate that Hu Xuechuan used to track him, but unexpectedly...

Xu Jin was confused.

”That blood-colored lightning is also known as the Blood Soul Summon! It is a protective measure for progeny used by some powerful Seventh Tier and higher Experts, deterring enemies from striking a fatal blow to their bloodline successors!

If anyone with a Blood Soul Summon’s protection as their bloodline successor is slain, the one who struck the fatal blow will be marked by the Blood Soul Summon for vengeance!

A vendetta until death!”

Having said this, Qi Shanye added with a bitter smile, ”Moreover, the tracking mark of the Blood Soul Summon is much more ruthless than the tracking of the Star Positioning Plate!

No matter where you are, even tens of thousands of miles away, it can provide a clear direction.”

Xu Jin, who had just refined and taken control of the annex of the Star-picking Tower, was shocked.

Mo Ji slowly lowered his bow and began to smile wryly, ”That rascal really did us in! If only you had revealed your identity sooner. Had I known he had Blood Soul Summon protection, I would’ve just knocked him out and fed him to a Fierce Beast, and we wouldn’t have this problem!”

Qi Shanye also wore a wry smile.

”Isn’t there any way to solve this?”

Mo Ji slowly shook his head.

”Vendetta until death!

Or else, if his elder gives up on the chase or is killed!” Qi Shanye said with a wry smile.

In the next instant, Mo Ji took a deep breath, ”Being a fugitive is nothing! I have already been on the run for twenty years, so I’m not afraid of another twenty.

Alright, we don’t have much time.

If we don’t want to be wiped out in one fell swoop, we must leave here immediately and then go our separate ways!”

”No!”

Qi Shanye’s expression turned even more bitter. ”The tracking Hu Xuechuan had on me was just a vague positioning, effective even when invisible! But this Blood Soul Summon, being invisible is useless...”

”Do you want to be wiped out in one go? Hurry up! Gather up the Star Tower!”

As he spoke, Mo Ji began to clean up the battlefield, sweeping layers of Star Power over the area, destroying any possible traces of the fight, while Qi Shanye went straight to looting the bodies.

”This Sixth Tier Expert is actually a poor devil... This young master was indeed wealthy, but he had spent it all. Tens of thousands of taels in banknotes is still a haul,” said Qi Shanye with some waning enthusiasm!

Xu Jin frowned, but he activated the spirit of the Star Tower, and in the next moment, with a thunderous rumble, the Star-picking Tower rose from the ground, instantly shrinking and then vanishing into Xu Jin’s body.

”I just heard that this kid’s surname is Hu, right?” Qi Shanye suddenly asked.

”Seems so.”

”In Tianyang Star Hall, there are many Experts with the surname Hu, and several Seventh Tier Experts as well. The strongest and most famous of them is Second Elder Hu Zhen of Tianyang Star Hall... he is Eighth Tier...”

Qi Shanye said with a wry smile.

Mo Ji’s face turned even more somber!

*****

Inside one of the grand halls within the palace complex of the main Tianyang Star Hall, an old man who was cultivating suddenly opened his eyes. The moment his eyes opened, two beams of Starlight shot straight towards the residence of Hu Changyan.

In the next moment, the Starlight descended, and Hu Zhen appeared in Hu Changyan’s courtyard.

”Where’s Changyan?”

With a loud command, all the sleeping servants, guards, stewards, concubines, and more than fifty people, were all startled awake.
