Chapter 610: Chapter 610: Blood Spirit Sect, Breaking the Prohibition with Death

Within Langya Cave Heaven, every cultivator with a Blood Spirit Yin Gu attached to them could be considered a ”Life Key” to activate the Blood Spirit Ban.

Once activated, the cultivator would perish there.

Thinking of this, a thought crossed Ye Yun’s mind, and he looked towards the Su Family Ancestor.

That old fellow was extremely lucky, positioned dozens of feet behind the black-robed man and temporarily out of danger.

As for the Green Water True Dragon, he was second to last in line, in even less danger.

”This Blood Spirit Ban appeared before the previous era. Do you know from which sect it was inherited?”

Ye Yun gazed at the rolling mountain ranges in the distance, a thought stirring in his mind as he transmitted his voice to the Immortal Divine Silkworm.

”Let me think... Master,” the Immortal Divine Silkworm said, closing its eyes and pondering deeply.

Ye Yun smiled softly. It really was tough for this little worm. Relying on its clan’s innate gift of nine rebirths, it has lived for more than an entire era. Now, many of its memories have naturally faded, with only some extremely ancient ones surfacing occasionally—which is already a remarkable feat.

The Immortal Divine Silkworm suddenly exclaimed, ”I remember now, Master! The Blood Spirit Ban comes from the Blood Spirit Sect!”

Ye Yun laughed and asked, ”What do you know about the Blood Spirit Sect?”

”Not much, it’s too long ago. I just have a vague feeling that the Blood Spirit Sect was quite powerful and did many bad things...” the Immortal Divine Silkworm recalled.

”Did many bad things? It seems this Blood Spirit Sect wasn’t any good after all!” Ye Yun let out a hearty laugh.

From the Immortal Divine Silkworm’s words, Ye Yun inferred that Langya Cave Heaven was most likely a grotto-mansion left by a successor of the Blood Spirit Sect. The large number of Blood Spirit Bans within the grotto-mansion could only have been laid by members of the Blood Spirit Sect.

”Little Silkworm, Blood Spirit Yin Gu and Blood Spirit Ban have similar names. Could they both originate from the Blood Spirit Sect?” a thought struck Ye Yun, and he asked again.

”I am not too sure about that, Master...” the Immortal Divine Silkworm said in embarrassment.

”No matter,” Ye Yun chuckled and nodded.

Watching the long, snake-like queue ahead, its members leaping over the small river one by one, landing, and then entering a lush green jungle, Ye Yun suddenly had a realization. The mastermind behind the Blood Spirit Yin Gu has never truly shown himself, and that black-robed old man is merely issuing commands indirectly through the Blood Spirit Yin Gu.

Recalling that Eternal Realm cultivators were unable to enter Langya Cave Heaven, Ye Yun arrived at a shocking guess. The mastermind behind the Blood Spirit Yin Gu must have reached the Eternal Realm. Or perhaps, even beyond the Eternal Realm. It’s precisely because their cultivation base is so high that they are unable to enter Langya Cave Heaven.

What treasure could there be in Langya Cave Heaven that would make the mastermind behind the Blood Spirit Yin Gu go to such lengths, driving so many Life and Death Realm cultivators to explore it? Ye Yun’s gaze flickered as he pondered, following the Green Water True Dragon and slowly moving forward with the team.

After they entered the jungle, and had walked less than fifty meters, the Blood Spirit Ban was triggered again.

BUZZ!

The space within the jungle distorted. Countless green leaves turned to powder, then aggregated and transformed, resembling myriad sharp swords charging at the middle-aged man leading the group.

”Open!” The middle-aged man’s eyes were stern. He charged forward with his sword, unleashing thousands of streams of Sword Qi.

SWISH...

The Sword Qi was ferocious and seemingly unstoppable. Countless streams of Sword Qi formed dazzling galaxies in mid-air, which then surged back with astonishing power.

BOOM! BOOM!

The swords formed from powdered leaves collided with the dazzling galaxies in mid-air, creating an earth-shattering explosion.

Stunningly, the dazzling galaxies were instantly destroyed without any contest. The huge shockwave from the explosion then blended into the distorted space, causing no further ripples.

”Waste!” the old man in the black robe roared angrily, his expression extremely cold. This guy, does he really think he can break the Blood Spirit Ban with his superior swordsmanship alone? That’s utterly delusional! No cultivator who enters the Blood Spirit Ban can break this strange restriction without sacrificing their flesh and blood. Once a cultivator enters the restriction, the first step is to quickly suppress its attack. After successful suppression, the Blood Spirit Ban weakens. At this time, the second step begins: only after sacrificing the physical body can the Blood Spirit Ban be completely broken.

BUZZ! BUZZ!

Accompanied by waves of buzzing sounds, the spatial distortion intensified, and the strength of the Blood Spirit Ban increased again.

SWISH!

The green powdered leaves transformed into countless sword lights that silently descended. The middle-aged man once again tried his best to resist but could not withstand the Blood Spirit Ban’s powerful attack. His body was immediately riddled with holes.

”Ah! I’ll fight you to the death!” The severely injured middle-aged man, knowing he was doomed, roared with gritted teeth, throwing out all his treasures, and then, at the same moment, self-destructed.

BOOM!

A huge explosion thundered, and a powerful shockwave swept out madly, carrying countless fragments of flesh and blood, before finally merging into the distorted space.

”What a dumbass!” the old man in the black robe stomped his foot fiercely and said with great exasperation. ”He hadn’t even suppressed the Blood Spirit Ban! Even if you self-destruct now, the Blood Spirit Ban won’t disappear.”

”Next one,” the old man in the black robe said loudly.

Another cultivator soared into the air and rushed into that void.

As soon as this cultivator entered the distorted void, he immediately threw out all his treasures. These treasures clashed with the Blood Spirit Ban, unleashing loud rumbling sounds.

Although the powerful Blood Spirit Ban shattered these treasures, it also dimmed somewhat.

This man drew his weapon and launched his strongest attack at the Blood Spirit Ban.

BOOM!

Amidst the loud noise, the Blood Spirit Ban faded even more.

Seeing this, the man, facing death unflinchingly, detonated himself without hesitation.

A burst of light erupted from his body, and then he exploded violently.

The massive force swept in all directions, accompanied by countless fragments of flesh and blood, rushing into the distorted void. Under the impact of this self-detonation and the sacrifice of flesh and blood, the Blood Spirit Ban finally disappeared.

The black-robed old man took a deep breath.

This Blood Spirit Ban was just that troublesome; it could only be continuously broken at the cost of lives.

Ye Yun witnessed this battle and nodded slightly. If it were me, with ’one force breaks everything,’ this mere Blood Spirit Ban would naturally be a piece of cake to dispel. But Life and Death Realm cultivators can only sacrifice their lives. This also means the Blood Spirit Ban’s power isn’t truly sufficient. If a Divine King Realm cultivator had set up this Blood Spirit Ban, I’m afraid even God King Level experts would perish.

”Eighteen Brother, do you have any way to deal with this Blood Spirit Ban?” Ye Yun whispered tentatively.

”No! This Blood Spirit Ban can only be broken by the dead!” the Green Water True Dragon said, shaking his head.

”Do you know what the Master’s mission is this time?” Ye Yun asked again in a low voice, his eyes blinking.

When he said this, he naturally shielded the surroundings so no one could hear.

”How would I know...” the Green Water True Dragon said, shaking his head. He looked at the undulating mountains in the distance, and a look of longing suddenly appeared in his eyes.

Ye Yun swiftly caught that. He noticed that the Green Water True Dragon’s gaze held a hint of homesickness.

Ye Yun smiled faintly. Heh, quite interesting. This little water dragon seems to have some connection to Langya Cave Heaven...

Although he was looking into the distance, he still refrained from using his terrifying Divine Sense to forcibly scan this Miniature World.

After all, this Miniature World likely couldn’t withstand it.
