While Zhou Bai was striving to strengthen himself, countless human prodigies and heroes were also fully focused on the upcoming debates in Daluo Heaven.
A violent upheaval unlike any other before was slowly brewing in the northwest of the human domain.
Inside the secret base of the Sky Flipping Sect.
Hundreds of cultivators were staring intently at the large screen before them, where they could see a blood-colored dagger covered with eyes slowly wriggling under the cover of countless runes.
It was the Blood Transformation Divine Sword, refined by the Plague Departnt's Yan Zhen.
And at that mont, in front of the Blood Transformation Divine Sword, Li Xiuzhu stood silently, slowly extending his hand.
Under the gaze of countless onlookers, Li Xiuzhu's palm suddenly swelled and multiplied, instantly transforming into a huge claw with layers of blue-grey keratin, like the claw of a gigantic eagle, reaching for the Blood Transformation Divine Sword.
Swoosh!
The eyes on the Blood Transformation Divine Sword suddenly burst open, with droplets of fresh blood surging out, covering Li Xiuzhu's palm.
At the sa ti, the runes around them flared up dramatically, encasing Li Xiuzhu and the Blood Transformation Divine Sword like layers of armor rushing towards them.
As the runes took effect, the Blood Transformation Divine Sword's bleeding slowed down. But it didn't stop completely; the alloy floor, walls, and ceiling all around beca a puddle of blood under the red illumination and began to drip down.
"Distortion has begun..."
"Void energy detected..."
"The concentration of contamination in the spirit machine has exceeded the threshold!"
"Sect Hierarch! Void energy has entered your sea of consciousness!"
Li Xiuzhu coldly commanded, "Continue."
White Primordial Spirit energy surged out of Li Xiuzhu's sea of consciousness, wrapping around the Blood Transformation Divine Sword, while a fist intent that could flip the heavens and the earth erged from the palm of his hand, violently colliding with the spreading red of the Blood Transformation Divine Sword, and for the mont, suppressing the distortion phenonon before him.
Li Xiuzhu stared at the Blood Transformation Divine Sword and shouted, "Spiritual Master Ling Miao! I know you are still inside the Blood Transformation Divine Sword—wake up! Don't be dominated by the void!"
"Think of your family, think of what the Plague Departnt has done! Do you really want to beco their weapon?"
With Li Xiuzhu's fist intent and shouts, along with the effect of the surrounding runes, the distortion phenonon of the Blood Transformation Divine Sword ca to a complete halt.
Researchers on the periter cried out in disbelief, "The concentration of contamination in the spirit machine is decreasing."
"The void energy has left the sea of consciousness."
"The distortion has temporarily stopped!"
The crowd cheered, and Jian Hui was also slightly excited upon seeing this scene. Although at present, only by coordinating with Li Xiuzhu's fist intent and special abilities could the distortion of the Blood Transformation Divine Sword be marginally controlled, aning only Li Xiuzhu himself could barely use this deford weapon.
But this was undeniably a step towards successfully using a deford weapon. The next step was to unlock the secrets of the Blood Transformation Divine Sword and attempt to replicate this kind of weapon.
However, seeing Li Xiuzhu's deford palm, Jian Hui still frowned slightly, feeling a twinge of discomfort.
After the experint ended, Jian Hui followed Annie to Li Xiuzhu, performing a physical examination on him while submitting the experint report.
Looking at Jian Hui occasionally sizing up his own palm, Li Xiuzhu directly said, "Are you worried I've mutated?"
Jian Hui was sowhat at a loss for words as he said, "No... not... it's just..."
Li Xiuzhu waved his hand dismissively and casually said, "It's okay, it's a very normal concern. However, you can rest assured. I have rely awakened the demonic bloodline within ; it's still early for any mutation to occur."
Jian Hui muttered, "Demonic bloodline..." Although he had gradually been infused with the theory of demonic bloodlines since arriving at the Sky Flipping Sect's base, Jian Hui still felt so discomfort, as if it lacked reality.
Li Xiuzhu indifferently spoke, "Whether pure demons or pure-blooded humans, in fact, both have been eliminated by this planet.
The current us, the current mankind, is a more powerful, more superior race that has evolved after adapting to the erosion of the demonic bloodline and the distortion of Heavenly Dao."
Li Xiuzhu consoled, "We are naturally endowed with greater potential than our ancestors, but there's no need to sever your ancestral ties to the human or demon races."
He patted Jian Hui on the shoulder, "Acknowledging this evolution in our bloodline and accepting this part of our demonic heritage, we still remain human, with the sa heritage but even more powerful and with greater potential."
Li Xiuzhu continued, "The ones refusing to face reality are the gods of the heavens, who are envious of our potential yet greedy for the power hidden in our blood. If we can exert both demonic and celestial powers, even mutation will no longer be so fearso. The distortion of Heavenly Dao is a natural transition, a change in the universe. And the awakening of the demonic bloodline is our mankind's adaptation and evolution in response to the Heavenly Dao's distortion."
"If we can take control of mutative weapons next, we'll have the capital to stand up against the heavens, to have a say on this planet. And then, under the protection of mutative weapons, we'll have the hope to free the demonic bloodline in all humans, to truly unleash the potential of humankind."
"Give the empowered humans enough ti to grow, and every person has the chance to beco as strong as , no, even stronger; every human will have the opportunity to confront the celestial gods, to stand against the Heavenly Demon. Mankind will completely dominate its own destiny."
Li Xiuzhu said with a smile, "Perhaps by that ti, there will be thousands, if not millions, wielding powers as formidable as those of demons and celestials. We'll be able to transform planets, capture the sun and moon. Maybe mankind's territory will expand throughout the cosmos, conquering star after star, possessing endless resources and land..."
Hearing Li Xiuzhu's words, Jian Hui too began to feel his heart swell with excitent as a vision of a golden age for humanity, where everyone was like a dragon and thousands upon thousands possessed the mighty strength of demons and celestials, gradually erged before his eyes.
...
anwhile, in Central City, Plague Departnt.
Yan Zhen suddenly opened his eyes; just monts ago, he felt the connection with the Blood Transformation Divine Sword had been completely severed.
Since the Sky Flipping Sect had snatched the Blood Transformation Divine Sword from his clone, he had been using his sense of connection with the sword to deduce its location.
However, it was clear that the other party had mastered the ability to seal mutative weapons, and after a long period, would let him sense the Blood Transformation Divine Sword just faintly.
Until recently, this sensing had beco more and more frequent, leading Yan Zhen to think that the other's seal was gradually failing.
Hence, for the past few days, he had spent a great deal of ti quietly sensing the sword's location.
Until just now, his connection with the Blood Transformation Divine Sword was completely cut off.
"The Sky Flipping Sect... researching mutative weapons? Where did they get the technical strength for this?"
"Lawlessness, absolute lawlessness; they don't know what they are doing." Yan Zhen suddenly stood up as his formless Primordial Spirit power surged outwards, causing light and air to ripple under the force's pressure, with the surrounding restrictions shattering layer by layer, and dense cracks bursting out on the walls and ground.
His gaze sharply turned towards the northwest direction: "The last sense was roughly near the northwest battlefield. This must be reported imdiately, to completely exterminate them."
