God Emperor

Chapter 2342 Bloody Shadowseed

Yue Tinghai was still kneeling outside the city. He was suppressed by the giant palm made of lightning and thunder. The ground beneath him was in ruins.

Close to 200 Supreme Saints from the ten great clans gathered at the Cloud City Governor’s mansion.

At the top, there were seven chairs. Lord Xia Yu, Lady Wind, Lord Bladehell, Supreme Saint Jin Kun, Gu Chenzi, and Saint Lord Yi Hui sat atop them.

Zhang Ruochen sat in the middle of the row of seven chairs. He appeared to be the leader.

Saint Lord Yi Hui of the Demonsky Clan was a Supreme Saint at the Great Perfection stage of the Hundred-Shackle Realm hidden in the Immortal Vampires. He was only listed on the Great Perfection stage of the Hundred-Shackle Realm after entering the Battlefield of Celestial-Hunting.

Of course, most of the Supreme Saints were looking at Lord Sinluo, who was standing behind Zhang Ruochen.

They were all surprised. How could a top-tier powerhouse of the Deathkin come to the Immortal Vampires’ home planet and stand behind Zhang Ruochen like a guard?

Zhang Ruochen displayed a strong saint’s might, but his tone was calm. He said, “I asked you to come here today to discuss one thing. We are going to combine all the powers of the Immortal Vampires to take down the Battle of Celestial-Hunting. “I think the ten great clans shouldn’t have any more grudges. Those who have grudges should put them aside first. Those who have conflicts should restrain themselves first. This Battle of Celestial – Hunting is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. It’s the time for the Immortal Vampires to show off their power in the Infernal Court. We must unite and take first place among the ten clans.”

“First place among the ten clans?” everyone present muttered.

Everyone present was a Supreme Saint. They were calm, but many were still shocked. They had guessed why Zhang Ruochen had summoned the cultivators of the ten clans, but they hadn’t expected him to be so ambitious?

A Supreme Saint stood up with a serious expression and said, “It’s not easy to fight for first place. The Yanluo Clan and Asura are both powerful. We may not be weaker than them. But there’s still a big gap between the number of the Hundred-Shackle Realm Supreme Saints. This was one of the reasons.

“Secondly, if the Immortal Vampires show too much of their abilities, they might become the target of public criticism and be suppressed by the alliance.

“Of course, we are not afraid of a single clan. However, if two or three clans join forces, we are definitely not their match.

“So, I want to know how Supreme Saint Ruochen plans to resolve these two points.”

Fighting for first place in the ten clans was not a slogan. Once they did it, they would face a huge challenge and resistance. It was very likely that a Supreme Saint among them would die in battle.

Dying in battle was not scary.

As long as they had a chance to win first place in the ten clans, they were not afraid of battle or death.

What they were afraid of was that fighting blindly was not worth dying.

Zhang Ruochen had already done careful thinking and deduction, he said, “First of all, my opponent is only the Yanluo Clan. As for the Asura, they are indeed very powerful. However, there are too many internal forces and they are divided into 24 fanes. The hatred between the fanes is very deep and there are many contradictions. It is impossible to unify them.

“If the Asura can not be unified, there is nothing to be afraid of.

“If we want to defeat the Yanluo Clan, we need two steps.

“First, we need to be united. We need to combine all our forces to kill the Celestial Captives to get more points. “Most of the Celestial Captives are hiding in the starfields near the seven Dark Stars. Besides the third Dark Star, which Lord Xia Yu and I have cleared once, we need to go to the other six Dark Stars.

“Secondly, I will personally go to the home planet of the Yanluo Clan and destroy more than half of the Yanluo Clan. This is my promise to everyone.”

All the Supreme Saints present were moved.

Zhang Ruochen’s promise was no small matter. The home planet of the Yanluo Clan was full of danger. The Ghost’s home planet couldn’t compare to it.

Just breaking into the home planet of the Yanluo Clan was almost impossible.

The Yanluo Clan had more than a dozen Supreme Saints in the Great Perfection stage of the Hundred-Shackle Realm. There were also many powerful Array Masters, Talisman Masters, Illusionists, Summoners, and Necromancers. All of them were at the level of High-Saints.

Some of them had the strength to fight against Supreme Saints in the Great Perfection stage of the Hundred-Shackle Realm.

The Immortal Vampires had Zhang Ruochen, Lord Xia Yu, Lord Bladehell, and Lady Wind. They could fight against several Supreme Saints in the Great Perfection stage of the Hundred-Shackle Realm on their own. That was why they dared to challenge the supreme position of the Yanluo Clan. Otherwise, it would be like hitting a rock with an egg.

Zhang Ruochen continued, “If the Immortal Vampires really try their best to fight for the first place among the ten clans, they will definitely be suppressed by the alliance. However, there is one condition: we must defeat the Yanluo Clan.

“Before we completely defeat the Yanluo Clan, the other clans will only watch from the sidelines.

“What I want to say here is that all of you are the most outstanding powerhouses of the Immortal Vampires in the past thousand years. If we can even defeat the supreme clan, why should we be afraid of a group of weaklings? The source of this content is Noᴠelꜰire

“Of course, we have to be fully prepared. If we are really suppressed by the combined forces of multiple clans, we have to be able to withstand them.

“Therefore, the most important thing is our defense. This matter will be handled by Lord Xia Yu. She’s one of the most powerful Array Masters in the Battle of Celestial-Hunting. She also has the Pleiades Lotus, a Supreme Artifact. The defensive array she has set up can make our home planet impregnable.”

Yao Bing, the captain of the Sealsky Clan, stood up and said, “Supreme Saint Ruochen, I have a question.”

“Speak,” Zhang Ruochen said.

Yao Bing said, “Among the Celestial Captives, there’s a Supreme Saint, Lord Hornless, in the Banshi Isshou Realm. No one knows where he is hiding. If we go on a large-scale campaign against the six Dark Stars, we will definitely suffer heavy losses. How can we guard against him?”

“Before we go on a large-scale campaign against the six Dark Stars, I will scout the way first. If I find Lord Hornless, I will attack him first. I may not be able to defeat him, but it shouldn’t be too difficult to pin him down.” said Zhang Ruochen.

Zhang Ruochen exuded a strong sense of confidence.

This confidence could not be shaken no matter how great the danger was. It infected the Immortal Vampires Supreme Saints in the mansion, making them feel confident. Their worries and worries were reduced.

Yao Bing stared into Zhang Ruochen’s eyes and nodded deeply. “If Supreme Saint Ruochen really takes the lead, then I shall lead the Sealsky Clan to closely follow your footsteps.” Following that, several other Supreme Saints stood up and voiced their concerns. Zhang Ruochen answered smoothly, showing that his decision to fight for the first place of the ten clans was not a spur-of-the-moment decision. It was a deliberate decision.

“The Azuresky Clan will listen to Supreme Saint Ruochen’s orders.”

“The Mendsky Clan will listen to Supreme Saint Ruochen’s orders.”

When all the cultivators had no objections, Zhang Ruochen spoke again. “There is one thing that everyone should have guessed. The home planets of the ten clans are not ordinary planets.

“There’s a huge opportunity inside the home planet of the Ghost. There should be something extraordinary inside the home planet of the Immortal Vampires. have any cultivators gone underground to investigate?”

The news of the home planet of the Ghost had long been sent back to the home planet of the Immortal Vampires. No one who could cultivate to the Supreme Saint realm was stupid. They could definitely guess the clues of the ten home planets.

How could the Fane of Destiny and the gods favor one over the other?

A pale-faced Neverwilt Realm Supreme Saint shook his head. He said, “I’ve gone underground to investigate. I found that the entire home planet is like a huge living creature.”

“What do you mean?” Zhang Ruochen asked.

The Neverwilt Realm Supreme Saint said, “Thousands of meters underground, there are many underground rivers of blood. They’re complex and endless. They’re like blood vessels in a person’s body.

“Furthermore, the river is very strong. It’s very difficult to destroy by the Supreme Saint’s power.

“I once followed a river and tried to find where the rivers of blood converged. However, I encountered a very strange thing. The blood in my body decreased unknowingly. Luckily, I retreated quickly. Otherwise, I would have turned into a dried corpse.”

More than one person had entered the underground blood river. All of them had lost a lot of blood.

The most serious one had half of his body withered. His skin was like tree bark, and the outline of his bones could be seen. Furthermore, with his cultivation of the Supreme Saint realm, he found it difficult to recover.

“Could it be the Blood-devouring Curse?” Zhang Ruochen asked.

The Supreme Saints who had entered the underground shook their heads. One of them said, “No, it can’t be. After being hit by the Blood-devouring Curse, the blood in his body disappears on average.

“In the underground, however, the blood begins to disappear from the surface of my body or concentrates in a specific area.”

It was shocking to hear that the blood of the Immortal Vampires who were the best at manipulating with blood and those Supreme Saint’s blood was taken without a sign.

Zhang Ruochen was deep in thought, he thought to himself, ‘Although there are great opportunities inside the Ghost’s home planet, there are also great dangers. If I didn’t have the Violet Gourd, the Five-element Chaotic Neverwither Physique, and a powerful Demigod-level physique, I’d be in big trouble if I forced my way in.

‘There must be great opportunities inside the Immortal Vampires’ home planet, but there must be great dangers if I want to pass the

test.’

Zhang Ruochen had the experience of entering the Ghost’s home planet. He had a certain degree of respect for the inside of the Immortal Vampires’ home planet. He didn’t dare to hope for the opportunities inside the planet.

Of course, just because he didn’t dare to Hope didn’t mean he didn’t dare to try.

Zhang Ruochen looked at Lady Wind, wanting to know more.

Lady Wind had stayed behind to guard the home planet. It was impossible for her not to have been underground. With her cultivation, she might have already found some clues.

While Lady Wind was hesitating, Zhang Ruochen said, “The opportunity on the home planet belongs to every Supreme Saint of the Immortal Vampires. I said just now that we should all work together and obtain the same information. There’s nothing to hide.”

Hearing this, everyone nodded in unison. Their recognition of Zhang Ruochen grew. Lady Wind shook her head. “It’s very dangerous underground,” she said. “To be precise, it’s very dangerous. If you’re not a Supreme Saint of the Hundred-Shackle Realm, you’ll die if you try to break in. If you’re not a Supreme Saint of the Great Perfection stage of the Hundred-Shackle Realm, you’ll die if you try to force your way in.

“I did find something. The reason why everyone suffers blood loss might be related to the legendary Bloody Shadowseed.”

‘Bloody Shadowseed?’ All the Supreme Saints present looked puzzled. None of them had heard of it.

Some even suspected that Lady Wind had made it up to hide the truth.

Zhang Ruochen wasn’t suspicious. After refining part of the Heart of the Divine Tree, he had inherited a lot of knowledge and insight from the Divine Sky-connecting Tree. He had some clues about the Bloody Shadowseed.

The Fane of Destiny had the largest collection of books in the universe. They had collected countless books from the Macroworlds. As one of the candidate Scionesses, they were all knowledgeable. They read thousands of books and knew all sorts of secrets and strange things.

“The legend of the Bloody Shadowseed is very old,” Lady Wind said. “It can be traced back to the birth of the Immortal Vampires.

“Some records say it was a tree, others say it was a humanoid creature, and still others say it was a dead spirit. There are too many records, but there is no unified explanation. Even its existence is a myth.

“The most important legend is that the Bloody Shadowseed grew out of the Pale Blood Soil. With the disappearance of the Pale Blood Soil, it also became extinct.”

Someone exclaimed, “Pale Blood Soil! What kind of treasure grew out of the Pale Blood Soil?”

The other Supreme Saints of the Immortal Vampires were also excited. Their eyes were shining and they could not calm down.

The Pale Blood Soil was the number one relic of the Immortal Vampires.

The Immortal Vampires were not a race that was born and raised naturally. They originated from the human race.

The first progenitor of the Immortal Vampires was called Yin. He was once a human and was buried in a patch of Pale Blood Soil after his death. It was unknown how many years later, he came back to life from the Pale Blood Soil, and that was how the Immortal Vampires came into being.

Yin lived in a time that predated the ten primogenitors who founded the ten great clans. He was a myth. Even the god of the Immortal Vampires was not sure if he really existed.

Yin was also known as the primogenitor. The Pale Blood Soil was known as the soil of immortality, the soil of resurrection, and the soil of rebirth. There were even rumors that the Pale Blood Soil was related to the secret of immortality.

Unfortunately, after countless years, the Pale Blood Soil had been used up.

Of course, many cultivators suspected that the Fane of Immortality definitely still had the Pale Blood Soil, which was used as a place for the gods to sleep. Perhaps one day, they could be awakened from the soil.

Lady Wind said, “Everyone, it’s best not to have too much hope. All of this is just my guess. Besides, the Bloody Shadowseed was indeed useful, but it was also very dangerous. It’s best not to go underground without reaching the Supreme Saint Realm.”

They were already connected to the Pale Blood Soil. How could the saints of the Immortal Vampires remain calm?

Even though they had a slim chance of survival, many Supreme Saints were willing to put their lives in danger. Zhang Ruochen saw the excitement in their eyes. He frowned and regretted asking Lady Wind to reveal this secret in front of everyone.

The more people who couldn’t control their desires knew, the faster they would die.

“How about this? I, Lady Wind, and Lord Bladehell will go in first to investigate and gain a deeper understanding of the internal situation of our planet. If we can control the danger, it won’t be too late for us to go in and try to seize the opportunity,” Zhang Ruochen said.
