“Catch the warrior first before making such bold claims’.” the Fox Demon King said indifferently.

The Blood Face laughed triumphantly, “What’s so difficult about it, behold the embodiment of the Blood God!”

A column of blood erupted towards the sky from the Blood Pool, ripping open a huge crack in the earth. The tough rocks melted under the onslaught of the blood, revealing the red spiritual spring that had been hidden for thousands of years.

Just like a bloody fountain appearing beneath the earth, it soared into the sky among the mountain range at the extreme south of the Minor Spiritual Realm. The bloody pillar, ten thousand feet high, exploded in the sky.

Blood splattered into the sky before gradually falling down, each drop turning into a blood beast in mid-air after absorbing the blood from the spiritual spring. The beasts took the form of humans, tigers, dogs, snakes, bats, and many more. Countless kinds were formed.

Within a mere moment, hundreds of thousands of blood beasts filled the hills.

“Roar- ”

Three continuous dragon roars echoed throughout heaven and earth. Three blood dragons coiled together mid-air. The sight of their hundred-foot-long red bodies continuously dripping blood sent chills down one’s spine.

This was a spectacle of two hundred thousand Blood God’s embodiment and three blood dragons, nurtured by the spiritual spring. Having done all this, Blood Face was out of breath. The previously overflowing Blood Pool had now become a bottomless pit.

“What do you think, Foxie? I’m impressive, right?!” Blood Face panted, but still found the energy to banter with the Nine-Tailed Demon King.

Watching his old friend show off his Blood God’s embodiment, the Spirit of the Realm gave a light “Oh,” and cast his gaze into the sky above the Minor Spiritual Realm. He had to monitor the movements of the seven people in the realm on his old friend’s behalf.

Given his friend’s safety was at stake, he had to be mindful. If the profound transformation of the Minor Spiritual Realm frightened the warrior away, that would be a problem.

Anyone who was not blind could see the massive blood column rising up from the extreme south of the Spirit Realm. Even if someone was blind, they would not pretend not to have heard the roar of the three blood dragons.

Ji Ming arrived with his team at the agreed meeting location, but he saw no sign of the team led by Ji. Upon seeing the column of blood rising into the sky, anyone who didn’t realize they had fallen into the Demon King’s trap would be a fool.

Grabbing the dust-proof glow tent, Ji Ming directed the three who were still immersed in the transformations of heaven and earth. “To the underground palace!”

He pointed towards the Han Family’s dubbed palace about ten miles away. And where his hand ended, blood beasts and three giant blood dragons roamed everywhere.

Swallowing nervously, Tang Zheng asked in disbelief, “Aren’t we going to run away?”

Since the palace was in the south of their location, with the rising column of blood extremely close, even if they ran into the palace, they would not be able to escape from the blood beasts. This puzzled him.

“It’s an order!” Ji Ming just deemed an explanation unnecessary and took the lead running towards the underground palace.

They had already penetrated deep into the Minor Spiritual Realm, and the only way they could escape would be through their own agility on foot. But they certainly wouldn’t be able to outrun the tireless blood slaves and the blood dragons in the sky. Their only way of survival was to abandon running away, take refuge in the underground palace built by the Han Family and depend on the sturdy spiritual matrix of the palace while waiting for rescue.

But regarding the Spirit Realm Gate, that could only accommodate those who just entered the Mortal Realm, what kind of reinforcements could be sent out? Even with Ji Ming’s combat experience, he could not help but despair at that moment.

As for the trio, Tang Zheng, they were in even more of a panic. Fortunately, Tang Luo had instructed them to listen to Ji Ming before leaving, so despite their reluctance, they followed Ji Ming towards the underground palace.

This journey was undoubtedly their most difficult run. If one looked down from the Realm Heart hanging in the sky above the Minor Spiritual Realm, they could see three figures sprinting towards the southern underground palace, while a tide of blood beasts in the far south of the Minor Spiritual Realm, as if upon a command, were also charging in the same direction.

On one side was a sea of blood, and on the other, the scattered shadows of four individuals. As they sprinted towards the same goal, the Han Family’s underground palace, the distance between the two sides closed rapidly. Tang Fengran noticed the rising blood columns naturally, and the last three giant blood dragons sent chills down her spine. Knowing they wouldn’t be able to reach the agreed meeting point, as soon as she spotted the blood dragons, she turned to Tang Zhen and said, “We need to head towards the Spirit Realm Gate!”

With tears streaking down her face, Tang Zhen was still drowning in sadness over the death of Tang Ya. Hearing that Tang Fengran was proposing they flee, she retorted sharply, enveloped by despair and grief, “If you want to run away, go on your own! Why drag me along? I want to avenge Xiaoya, I want to avenge Xiaoya!”

“Slap!”

A severe slap struck Tang Zhen’s face, Tang Fengran coldly said, “By accepting a familial command, you are a warrior, not a missy. The Minor Spiritual Realm is undergoing drastic changes, and I must report it to the family elders. If you refuse to flee, then cover our retreats, and buy me some time!”

Never had Tang Zhen expected Tang Fengran, who treated her like her own baby sister, would strike her. But this slap served as a wake-up call, reminding her that she was a Martial Hall warrior. The years of martial discipline finally steadied her resolve, but having lost her sister, she couldn’t bear to flee, begging through tears, “Big sister Fengran, let’s warn Tang Xing and the others first. We can’t just leave like this.”

Years of complication had left her with mixed feelings towards Tang Xing, feelings that surfaced the moment she lost her sister. Pointing at the southwest meeting point, she said, ”They’re over there. Let’s find them first before running.”

Tang Fengran coldly glanced at her naive, juvenile-like sister and said, “If they hadn’t encountered the Blood Slaves, they would’ve already reached the meeting point. It’s too close to the blood column; they have absolutely no chance to escape. Now, I order you, follow me!

After a sharp glare at Tang Zhen, Tang Fengran channeled all her Spiritual Power into her legs and sprinted towards the Spirit Realm Gate without looking back.

In a race against time, this was the last bit of kindness she could show her sister.

In just a few seconds, Tang Fengran’s figure had receded into the distance. Tang Zhen watched her receding figure, then looked back at the far-off meeting point. She tried wiping away her tears, but they just wouldn’t stop. The girl bit the blood out of her lips, bid farewell to her male counterpart in her heart, fueled her legs with spiritual power, and chased after Tang Fengran. The decisions made were indeed decisive, but the discussion had eaten into their escape time. More than a dozen Blood Slaves were already approaching, only a few miles away. With the speed of the Blood Slaves, they would catch up to Tang Fengran in less than half an hour, whereas they were still nearly a hundred miles from the Spirit Realm Gate.

Tang Luo, who entered the Minor Spiritual Realm not long ago, also saw the blood column soaring into the sky in the far south. He sat down cross-legged for introspection, feeling that the star seed brought by Tang Xing was rapidly moving towards the blood column.

“What the hell!?” He hastily stripped off his heavy silver armor and tossed aside his drum mallet, then soared into the sky using the Immortal Wind Cloud Body Technique. He wanted to see what the inexplicable movement trajectory was all about.

Since Tang Luo’s eyes had awakened the ability to see spiritual power values, he kept discovering more peculiarities. They weren’t affected by strong light, could see in the dark, and after completing the ninth stage of the Undying Battle Body technique, he felt like he could see the feathers of a bird in the distant sky.

While others could only see the southern blood column, he was able to clearly see that every drop of concentrated blood that exploded at the high altitudes turned into blood beasts. Moreover, he could see the numbers above the heads of each blood beast.

Countless “3000” points densely packed everywhere, stretching as far as he could see. As for the final three blood dragons, the numbers towering above them reached a staggering 30,000 points..
