Chapter 121: Boundless Blood Soul

Ye Chen had always hated cutscenes in video games. If he could skip them, he would. After all, no matter how the story went, it always ended with a battle. So, without hesitation, he delivered a powerful slap.

Bai Xunhuan’s expression darkened. He transformed into a blood-red light, dodging the massive palm. He didn’t retaliate but instead swiftly retreated, pulling back deep into the hall.

Then he spoke, “When we entered ten years ago, the only thing left here were the demon spirits of the Boundless Demon Sect. As long as all the demon spirits are cleared out, the main hall will open. The Earth-Dao Foundation Establishment method will appear.

“Unfortunately, it seems the secret realm hadn’t been opened for too long, and the demon spirits were too many. We fought desperately, and in the end, only I and another survived. He lost his mind and was driven mad by the demon spirits. My physical body was destroyed! But by some twist of fate, as my soul dissipated, I merged with the demon spirits…”

…

Watching Bai Xunhuan, who had positioned himself at a distance, Ye Chen couldn’t help but twitch his lips.

Damn, so you’re forcing me to endure this plot, huh?

Bai Xunhuan’s face showed a smile, possibly as he prepared to boast about his accomplishments.

“After merging with the demon spirits, I discovered that I had gained some authority over formations. So, I opened a corner of the secret realm and released that madman. Over the next ten years, I not only completely refined the demon spirits, but I also acquired the cultivation method of the Boundless Blood Soul.

“To think, the Boundless Blood Soul is a soul technique that can only be cultivated after reaching Foundation Establishment. But because I merged with the demon spirits, I can cultivate it even at the Qi Refining stage.

“As long as I have enough blood from cultivators, I can refine the Boundless Blood Soul and reclaim a physical body. Then, I set up formations all over the giant mountain and opened the secret realm, allowing you to come in.

“After that, everything proceeded exactly as I had planned—smoothly, almost unbelievably so. Now, I’ve fully cultivated the Endless Blood Soul, and my soul body has reached the Foundation Establishment stage. Even an elder from the Misty Sect wouldn’t stand a chance against me.”

“Next, I’ll take your body, perform the Earth-Dao Foundation Establishment, and then enjoy the company of a lovely Junior Sister. I, Bai Xunhuan, am truly the chosen one by fate!”

As he finished speaking, possibly even impressed with himself, Bai Xunhuan let out a cackling laugh. He was ready to savor the fear in their eyes.

Ye Chen couldn’t help but twitch the corner of his mouth as he listened. Su Yuxuan killed an elder’s son, and you killed an elder yourself. The life of a Demon Sect elder was indeed a dangerous job—one that not only brings misfortune to oneself but also ensures that their lineage is cut off.

Ye Chen had never been fond of watching others gloat. Having heard a bunch of useless talk, he wasn’t in a rush anymore. His gaze shifted to Su Yuxuan, who had unknowingly moved behind him, and he asked, “Were there any other disciples in the same batch as this Senior Brother Bai who managed to do well?”

Su Yuxuan blinked a few times, thinking for a moment. “Three of them have reached Foundation Establishment, and one of them is even at the mid Foundation Establishment stage…”

“Well…” Ye Chen nodded, not saying much, and then raised an eyebrow at Bai Xunhuan.

The implication was clear.

It had been ten years, and your batchmates have already reached the mid Foundation Establishment stage. What have you been doing for ten years? You’ve barely managed to cultivate the Boundless Blood Soul and achieved some Foundation Establishment-like power. And yet you call yourself the chosen one?

You could be reading stolen content. Head to the original site for the genuine story.

Bai Xunhuan, who had been eagerly waiting to savor their fear and dread, found his eyes growing even redder. His fists tightened. This brat was far too annoying.

…

“Since you’re eager to die, then I’ll grant your wish! I’ll take your body and thoroughly enjoy this Junior Sister. Then, I’ll personally refine your entire family into the Human Emperor Banner!”

Bai Xunhuan’s voice, once filled with arrogant swagger, turned chillingly cold after his boast was interrupted so many times.
