Shocking the Nine Heavens With My Sword-Chapter 627 - 604 Old Blood River Ancestor (2/3)

How steadfast was this piece of greenstone? It had previously withstood that unimaginably terrifying gravity and, later, remained flawless amidst the fierce battle between Zhou Heng, Zhong Shifeng, and Yuan Shaohuang, evidencing its incredible hardness!

But now, a crack had somehow formed, spanning the entire plaza—this was too horrifying!

How could this have happened? What kind of power had caused it?

Some people leaned into the crack to take a look, but before they could turn around, they suddenly grew red hair all over their bodies, turning into monsters emanating a terribly evil aura.

These red-haired people all turned around, their eyes blood-red without a hint of human emotion, filled with evil and nothing but the desire to kill!

This was entirely different from Zhong Gufeng!

Even though they both embraced slaughter, these people were driven only by madness, killing for the sake of killing, having become puppet-like, devoid of any human warmth.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

They all lunged forward, rushing to kill the others, with what seemed like blood swirling around them, like tendrils reaching out.

Zhou Heng’s brows furrowed deeply; he had seen these red-haired monsters in the Mortal Realm!

At that time, he had just started on the path of cultivation and entered an underground world, where he encountered an imprisoned Immortal, Kong Aokun, who emitted this kind of blood energy. Whoever came into contact with it would grow red hair all over and turn into a monster that knew only slaughter.

Could it be that the Creation Emperor below was like Kong Aokun, also imprisoned?

"Gaga, there are actually dozens of brats here!" Amidst a freakish laughter, with a bang, a figure shot out from the crevice and hovered in the sky. It was an emaciated elderly man, very tall, wearing a blood-red robe, with a gold crown on his head and white hair tied up.

He was an immensely powerful entity, and under his intimidating presence, everyone felt an uncontrollable chill down to their core, wanting to kneel and submit before such a being.

"Who... who are you, senior?" someone asked tremulously. There were supposed to be limits to the realms allowed here; beings beyond the Sunshine Realm couldn’t possibly remain here and would be immediately expelled!

Yet the strength of this man in the red robe clearly exceeded the Sunshine Realm, his aura as vast as the sea, unfathomable!

"A bunch of ants waiting for death!" The elder in the red robe didn’t answer, but suddenly inhaled sharply!

In an instant, everyone screamed as a layer of blood mist emerged from their skin and flew towards the elder in the red robe.

Zhou Heng, running the Ten Wheels Moon at full capacity, hurriedly flew toward Huo Tian’s direction. He knew that this red-robed elder must be the Creation Emperor that Huo Tian had mentioned, an entity he couldn’t possibly contend with at this moment.

But why had this Moonlight Emperor appeared so suddenly?

There were still three days to go until the earliest of the ten-day deadline!

Could it be because of the huge disturbance caused by the earlier battle? But he, along with Zhong Gufeng and Yuan Shaohuang, were only Moonlight Emperors and Sovereigns. Though they all possessed power beyond the Seven Wheels Moon, they hadn’t yet broken the barrier of the Sunshine Realm—how could they have disturbed a presence deep within the Earth’s Core?

It wasn’t that he was unduly modest; he simply lacked such ability.

The elder in the blood robe sucked greedily; all the blood mist was devoured into his stomach. Amidst piercing screams, people continuously fell to the ground; they had been robust or stunningly beautiful, but now they had turned to skin and bones, their black hair instantly turning gray and white, aged into old men and women.

In contrast, the elder in the blood robe’s own body became plump, his previously long and thin frame suddenly growing strong and robust. His white hair turned black in an instant, and he became youthful, filled with vitality and vigor!

But it was just for a moment; after he finished inhaling, the muscles once again became withered, and the hair turned back to gray.

"Too weak, this bit of blood energy is not enough for this Old Ancestor to absorb!" the blood-robed elder murmured to himself, glancing around. Most people here had been sucked dry into mummies, with only a handful left struggling to survive, protected by Immortal Artifacts.

But there were a few exceptions, including a young man and a dozen beautiful women, who had managed to block his absorbing power without even using any Immortal Artifacts!

Very strange!

Although he did not exert his full power, it shouldn’t be something a few Moonlight Sovereigns and Emperors could resist. These people... were quite peculiar!

"Hmm?" He suddenly tensed, looked up into the sky, and with a slight sneer, said, "Since you’ve come, why sneak around? Show yourself to this Old Ancestor!"

With both hands reaching out, he violently tore at the void, ripping a tremendous gash in the space!

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh. Seven figures appeared out of thin air, five men and two women, each one an incredibly powerful being, like Suns shining with unbearable Divine Light!

Not one of their presences was weaker than that of the red-robed elder!

The survivors watched the seven with eyes full of shock, their powerful auras enough to suffocate them to death!

What was going on, peerless experts were appearing one after another!

All eight were definitely beyond the Moonlight Realm, even far surpassing the Sunshine Realm, because these Moonlight Emperors had elders from the Sunshine Realm, and they knew well what the aura of the Sunshine Realm was like.

But why would experts from the Sublimation Realm come here? Did the Moonlight Lotus still hold attraction for them?

Moreover, this space was created by the Creation Emperor; only the ones who could disregard the Creation Emperor’s rules and enter were...surely more than just from the Sublimation Realm! Only the Creation Emperor could disregard the Creation Emperor’s rules!

But this made things even stranger. Would the almighty Creation Emperor be interested in the Moonlight Lotus? And why would so many Creation Emperors come all at once?

The Creation Emperor ah, in the Immortal Realm is the absolute Big Shot, the supreme Deities, everyone must prostrate in worship, with unparalleled reverence!

"Ma Sanhe, Kong Qingyang, Dongguo Heng, Yu Qianqiu, Yuanshuo Zhenhe, Blood Butterfly!" the red-robed elder pointed at the seven one by one, finally pointing at a charming middle-aged beautiful woman, "And you, Jade Lake B*tch!"

The respected title of that middle-aged beautiful woman was actually Jade Lake Fairy, but clearly, the red-robed elder bore great resentment towards her, spitting out the words "Jade Lake B*tch" word by word.

"Old Blood River Ancestor, you think you’re so clever, hiding here to heal your wounds, thinking we wouldn’t know?" said Dongguo Heng, a tall, slender elder whose eyes emitted a compelling divine light when they opened and closed.

That Old Blood River Ancestor was naturally the red-robed elder himself. He sneered coldly and said, "Knowing that this old ancestor is here, you really do have patience, hiding yourselves and not acting until this old ancestor has healed, are you seeking your own deaths?"

"Old Blood River Ancestor, do you think we don’t know that the moment your injuries heal is actually when you’re at your weakest?" Ma Sanhe raised his voice and said.

Old Blood River Ancestor was secretly alarmed. He had been gravely injured tens of thousands of years ago and had to hide here to recuperate. After tens of thousands of years of recovery, his wounds had finally healed, but he had also exhausted nearly all of his Essence Blood.

To him, this was not a problem; all he needed to do was go out and drink human blood, and the blood of a hundred million ordinary people would be enough to replenish his Essence Blood!

But he had not expected these old adversaries to understand him so well, choosing precisely this moment to appear!

"Putting up such a great display, are you all hell-bent on seeing this old ancestor dead?" Old Blood River Ancestor said gravely, for ill-intentioned visitors boded no good.

"Old Blood River Ancestor, you’ve spent a lifetime committing atrocities, trampling on the laws of the Immortal Realm at will, universally detested, won’t you surrender without a fight!" Yuanshuo Zhenhe spoke up. He was a short, stout middle-aged man, but the aura of a Creation Emperor level surged around him, who would dare underestimate him?

"Hahahaha, is this the pot calling the kettle black?" Old Blood River Ancestor laughed wildly, pointing at the seven in turn, "Which one of you here isn’t stained with fresh blood? This old ancestor has just killed a few more people, that’s all!"

"Just a few more? The blood on your hands could stain an entire Immortal City!" Kong Qingyang exclaimed.

"Don’t speak as if you’re so noble, do you really have such a strong sense of justice? Dare you say what you want isn’t the Blood River Heavenly Scripture?" Old Blood River Ancestor scoffed and suddenly let out a creepy laugh, "Tsk tsk tsk, this old ancestor just remembered, I once taught a junior of the Kong Family the Blood River Heavenly Scripture, hehehe, it was just missing a few key points, I hear that little guy went crazy from it, didn’t he?"

He tapped his head with a finger and continued, "Right, wasn’t that junior called Kong Aokun? I heard at the time he was the most outstanding member of your Kong Family! Gagaga, that kid was heartbroken and willingly fell into madness, this old ancestor didn’t need to persuade him much before he started the Blood River Heavenly Scripture on his own!"

Kong Qingyang was enraged. His body trembled with anger. Kong Aokun was not only the most outstanding junior of the Kong Family at the time but also his grandson, his only grandson!

Back when Kong Aokun turned demonic, he caused a great disturbance in Juexian City. In the end, because of Kong Qingyang’s face, he was not killed but was still forced into exile to the Mortal Realm, to be eternally suppressed!

For Kong Qingyang, this was not only a regret but also a hatred. It was precisely because of this that he loathed Old Blood River Ancestor to the bone and swore to kill him.

Zhou Heng, on the side, also nodded subtly; now he finally understood why Kong Aokun ended up in the Mortal World. He and Kong Aokun had not met many times, but he owed him for teaching the Swift Cloud Radiant Step. This was karma, and he had to repay it.

If he could slay Old Blood River Ancestor, that should be compensation enough. But the man was a Creation Emperor! Even in his weakest moment, how could a famished camel who is still bigger than a horse possibly be confronted by the current Zhou Heng?

He didn’t even have the qualifications to observe a battle of Creation Emperor level, not to mention intervening without Huo Tian by his side!

"No more nonsense, let’s all act together and eliminate this fiend!" Blood Butterfly said. She was another female among the seven, belonging to the Alien Races, with two giant butterfly wings on her back, beautiful yet light.

The Seven Great Creation Emperors each raised their hands, representing the most powerful battle power of the Immortal Realm. Who wouldn’t fear their united might?

"Thinking of killing this old ancestor? You’re still lacking!" Old Blood River Ancestor laughed wildly, "Come on then, give me your best shot. This old ancestor will drink your blood, and seven Creation Emperors will be enough to restore me to my prime condition!"

He was arrogant and self-assured, not fearing the Seven Great Creation Emperors at all.(To be continued.
