Chapter 248: Chapter 190: Director of the Reincarnation Department

"Damn it! How dare you humiliate me, you whelp!" 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Lv Hexsong roared, and the aura around his body suddenly transformed.

A profound aura of Abyssal Heavy Water emanated from him, reminiscent of monstrous, unceasing waves crashing against the shore.

Positional Divine Technique, Black Death Tomb!

"I, Lv Hexsong, the Black Water Pond Master, beseech the Holy Sect to send down the Blood Boiling Arena! I wish to fight this cur to the death—either he dies, or I do!"

BOOM!

A crimson radiance suddenly descended from the heavens.

A great array suddenly rose around Qin Xuan.

"The Blood Boiling Arena?"

’Isn’t this the Secret Realm that appeared during the Bone Slave selection? It can actually be summoned like this?’

Qin Xuan felt the sensation of being watched vanish.

It seemed as if not even the gaze of the Pure Yang Soul Capturing Demon Monarch could penetrate it from the outside world.

A line of crimson text slowly materialized in the sky above the Secret Realm: "Blood Boiling Arena. All methods are permitted. Only Cultivators of the same Realm may enter. All perception from outside Cultivators is blocked. The victor emerges; the vanquished dies!"

Realization dawned on Qin Xuan.

’So the Blood Boiling Arena has another function. It’s for Holy Sect Cultivators to settle their grudges in a fight to the death!’

The victor lives; the loser dies.

"My judgment was correct. I knew I could drag you into the Blood Boiling Arena..."

Lv Hexsong gave a sinister smile. The Abyssal Heavy Water coiling around him instantly shattered Qin Xuan’s Golden-Breaking Blood Talisman.

The power of his Yin Water Position was immense!

As Lv Hexsong performed a Sealing Technique, countless twisted, pitch-black phantoms of tombs materialized within the churning Abyssal Heavy Water.

The surging Power of Wu Fire from the Flame Demon vanished in an instant.

Qin Xuan’s eyes narrowed. "Water counters fire... You old dog, were you just pretending to be losing to me earlier?"

"You’re fairly clever. No wonder Lord Ruan took an interest in you, specifically instructing me to leave your flesh and Skeleton intact."

Lv Hexsong’s form suddenly swelled, his Cultivation Realm having already reached the True Mansion Fourth Level!

"Boy, prepare to die! The moment you walked out of the Star Ruins without successfully Guiding a Life Star, this day was destined to come."

"Rest assured, in the Blood Boiling Arena, dead is dead. No one will investigate what methods I used, and no one will even remember you. The moment I walk out of here alive, everything will be settled!"

Lv Hexsong spread his arms wide.

SPLASH!

Like a churning ocean, black tombs filled with Evil Qi bore down on him.

The surging True Intent of the Flame Demon around Qin Xuan grew weaker and weaker. Flames flickered out one by one as the profound, heavy Abyssal Heavy Water crushed down on him, making it almost impossible to breathe.

He had been holding back, but now he unleashed his strongest killing blow.

In Lv Hexsong’s eyes, Qin Xuan was already a dead man.

Qin Xuan retorted, "Who told you I didn’t guide a Life Star?"

"What do you mean?" Lv Hexsong froze.

The next moment, under the immense pressure of the Abyssal Heavy Water, Qin Xuan’s bent spine suddenly straightened.

BANG!

The black tomb pressing on Qin Xuan’s back shattered!

Countless jets of Abyssal Heavy Water scattered, evaporating into mist.

Lv Hexsong saw a brilliant, magnificent Sun rise behind Qin Xuan, so dazzling he dared not look at it directly.

"You... You successfully guided a Life Star?!" Lv Hexsong exclaimed in shock.

Not only had he guided a Life Star, but it was one of the most powerful ones!

Qin Xuan laughed. "I was just wondering how I could kill you without breaking the Holy Sect’s rules. But it looks like you’ve already solved that problem for me. In that case, you can’t blame me for what happens next!"

Great Sun Sword Scripture - Heaven-Burning and Earth-Scorching!

His Lifebound Longsword shot out with a thunderous roar. The blade spewed pure True Sun Fire, cutting through the opposition as if it were nothing.

Lv Hexsong was horrified. The dense wall of Abyssal Heavy Water before him was cleaved apart by Qin Xuan’s strike, the water instantly vaporizing. He only barely managed to dodge by desperately burning his Essence Blood.

"What a potent True Flame Star Technique, to be able to resist my Yin Water Position..."

Blood trickled from the corner of Lv Hexsong’s mouth. His pupils were a terrifying, inky black as he snarled, "However... if this is your trump card, it’s still not enough!"

Qin Xuan frowned, his vigilance raised to the absolute maximum.

’I’ve already broken his Black Death Tomb. Don’t tell me Lv Hexsong has a second Positional Divine Technique?’

’Holy Sect Cultivators really are more troublesome than those good-for-nothings from the Vermilion Bird Seven Stars!’

Qin Xuan immediately withdrew his sword and shot backward.

Once the Blood Boiling Arena was activated, only one person could leave. A victor had to be decided, and with it, life and death.

But what Lv Hexsong did next shocked Qin Xuan even more than the appearance of a second Positional Divine Technique would have.

"Hong’Er, come to me!" Lv Hexsong roared.

Then, he ripped Lv Hong’s figure out from the Ten Thousand Souls Banner!

???

Qin Xuan was completely baffled.

’Wasn’t this supposed to be a fight to the death? How can Lv Hexsong call for backup?’

Lv Hong was also terrified.

A moment ago, he had been in the grand hall of the Black Water Abyss, watching helplessly as his father and Qin Xuan vanished. The next thing he knew, he too had been bizarrely pulled into the Blood Boiling Arena.

"You... You actually managed to guide a Life Star..."

Seeing the magnificent Sun behind Qin Xuan, Lv Hong trembled with fear.

He could never have imagined that this Demon Disciple, once so far beneath him, could now contend with his own father.

"Don’t be afraid, Hong’Er. I’ve raised you for fifty years. Now is the time for you to repay me!"

Before Lv Hong could even react, excruciating pain wracked his body. He clutched his head and let out a bloodcurdling scream.

"AAAAHHH!"

Lv Hexsong chanted, a string of strange incantations spilling from his lips.

Lv Hong’s flesh and blood began to melt like candle wax, and his Cultivation Realm rapidly regressed.

In contrast, Lv Hexsong’s own Cultivation began to climb, bit by bit.

Even as slow as Lv Hong was, he finally understood what was happening.

"Father, I’m your son! How could you refine me?!!"

Lv Hong let out a shrill, explosive shriek, his face a mask of utter disbelief.
