Chapter 377: Chapter 266 Drought_2
As the Heavenly Gang Army withdrew, Gu Qingfeng also gazed at the Evil Spirit before him.
Bare-chested!
Standing two to three feet tall!
Its eyes longer than the top of its head…
These distinctive features all felt exceedingly familiar to Gu Qingfeng, and involuntarily, a corresponding na surfaced in his mind.
“Drought!”
The characteristics of the Evil Spirit before him were exactly the sa as those of the Drought he had known about in his past life.
“It is said that when the Drought appears, it scorches thousands of miles of land to ruin, and now it seems this saying is indeed no lie!”
Thinking this, Gu Qingfeng imdiately spoke out.
“From whence do you co? Should you tell , I might spare your life.”
“Life… blood food… swallowing you, I will beco stronger—”
The voice of Drought was hoarse, showing no intention of conversing with Gu Qingfeng; a bloodthirsty gleam shone in its crimson eyes, and in the next instant, it disappeared from the spot.
As soon as it made a move,
a deluge of scalding heatwaves engulfed everything around it.
Such a terrifying temperature was enough to instantly vaporize rivers and seas.
Yet, faced with the power of Drought, Gu Qingfeng’s expression remained unchanged.
“Utterly stubborn!”
“It just so happens, I’ll try out the Divine Sky Heavenly Thunder I’ve just acquired on you!”
Gu Qingfeng ford a Seal Skill with his right hand, and suddenly there was a loud rumble from the sky, followed by purple Divine Thunders slicing through the heavens and earth, shining like chaotic silver dances reflecting the void.
Such a fearso power struck fiercely down, landing directly on the body of Drought.
In an instant,
Drought emitted a piercing wail, and the sky filled with Divine Thunders seed to evolve into an ocean of Thunder, leaving no trace of its previous form visible.
Such a scene,
just so happened to be witnessed by Shi Zhen and the others; when they saw the figure in azure summoning the Thunder with a wave of his hand and transforming it into a sea of Thunder, awe appeared in their eyes.
Imdiately,
that awe
turned into reverence.
“Such is the might of the Supre Emperor!”
“Summoning Thunder with a gesture, truly as if an Immortal descended upon the world!”
Everyone wore an expression of reverence, admiring such power greatly.
Even though they were not the targets of the Thunder’s attack, they still felt the terrifying nature of this Thunder just from the radiating force.
After a long while,
the Thunder gradually dissipated.
When Shi Zhen and the others got a clear view of the scene inside, their pupils suddenly constricted.
“Hisss!”
They saw a charred deep pit on the ground where the once unrivalled Drought now lay, its skin cracked and blackened, blood flowing profusely, severely injured and on the brink of death.
Elsewhere,
Gu Qingfeng took a step out and descended into the deep pit, looking at the Drought before him, and directly started a Soul Search.
He wanted to see
precisely where this Evil Spirit ca from.
A torrent of foreign and fragnted mories began to erge in Gu Qingfeng’s mind.
…
After a while,
Gu Qingfeng looked at the Drought before him and once again summoned the Divine Sky Heavenly Thunder; purple Thunderbolts struck down, reducing the Evil Spirit to ashes in an instant.
Following that,
he stepped forward, directly soaring away through the sky.
Monts later,
Gu Qingfeng appeared in a valley.
The temperature of this valley was extrely high, and the surroundings were scorched. As Gu Qingfeng ventured deeper into the valley, he could see that the temperature here had reached an alarming level.
A dark red river appeared in Gu Qingfeng’s field of vision.
“Lava!”
Gu Qingfeng looked at the river of lava before him—in the mories of Drought, it had erged from this place.
In the mories of Drought, it had no idea how long it had been buried in the lava but then happened upon a drop of peculiar blood serendipitously, which enabled it to develop Spiritual Wisdom and turn into an Evil Spirit.
That drop of blood,
was of the sa origin as the blood Gu Qingfeng had obtained by slaying the Nine Curves Evil Buddha.
However, the difference was,
the drop of blood that created Drought was much more powerful than that found in the Nine Curves Evil Buddha.
After obtaining the peculiar blood, Drought had been lurking in the depths of the lava, quietly refining the power of the blood until its Cultivation reached a certain bottleneck, after which it had no choice but to co into the world.
And then,
ca the mories of Drought slaughtering the populace of Shenhe County, nourishing its own body with the blood and flesh of living beings, evolving to a higher realm.
The Drought that had initially erged seed to be at the pinnacle of the Semi-Saint level in Gu Qingfeng’s eyes, and through this breakthrough and transformation, it could well have truly stepped into the ranks of the Saints.
This subtly illustrates,
why the Ten Thousand Soul Banner couldn’t suppress the other.
“End of Dharma Era, difficult to beco a saint!”
“Yet the Drought could step into the Saint Realm, which shows that the Heaven and Earth End Tis don’t hold much effect on Evil Spirits!”
“Furthermore—the Drought’s corpse was preserved in the magma for many years, indicating that it must have been a cultivator of no small strength before death. If it had been an ordinary human body, there’s no way it could have been preserved in the magma!”
Gu Qingfeng’s mind raced with many thoughts, and finally, his contemplation rested on that drop of mysterious blood.
It was this blood that turned the Drought strange, all related to that single drop of mysterious blood.
“The Nine Curves Evil Buddha!”
“The Evil Spirits of Blood Mountain Mansion!”
“And now this Drought… it seems they beca strange because of external influences!”
“Could it then be possible that so-called Evil Spirits are bred from being influenced by mysterious forces?”
Gu Qingfeng’s expression grew solemn, as he thought of the scenes he witnessed before, surmising that the Nine Heavens Buddha was very likely the root of birthing Evil Spirits.
At this thought,
Gu Qingfeng took a deep breath.
“If that’s really the case, what kind of existence would that be!”
Not to ntion other Evil Spirits, the Drought refining that drop of blood alone qualified it to stand alongside the Saint Realm.
A single drop of blood,
created an Evil Spirit Saint.
If such a being was alive, Gu Qingfeng could hardly imagine what realm would be needed to achieve this.
Even with his current cultivation and foundation, a drop of blood would at best allow a Great Grandmaster at his peak to break through to the Divine Transformation Realm.
Furthermore,
it wasn’t even a guaranteed success.
To observe a single drop of mysterious blood creating an Evil Spirit Saint,
the gap between the two was imasurable.
If the Nine Heavens Buddha were to be reborn, Gu Qingfeng understood he would stand no chance against it.
However,
based on the information currently obtained,
it’s very possible that the Nine Heavens Buddha had already perished.
But that raises another question,
what kind of terrifying existence could slay such a fearso being.
“The waters of the Nine States!”
“Deeper than I had imagined!”
Gu Qingfeng’s expression fluctuated as he stared at the magma before him, his figure remaining motionless for a long ti.
After a while,
Gu Qingfeng suppressed the whirlpool of thoughts in his mind, his Divine Thought descending into the magma to search carefully, hoping to find traces of that mysterious blood.
But unfortunately,
no matter how Gu Qingfeng probed with his Divine Thought, he found no clues at all.
Seeing this,
he gave up on pursuing the matter further.
“Besides, if mysterious blood still existed here, the Drought wouldn’t need to force its ergence—it could simply refine more mysterious blood and break through directly!”
Gu Qingfeng took one last deep look at the scene, then turned and left.
Mysterious blood!
Drought!
The events that transpired in Shenhe County were now etched into Gu Qingfeng’s mind.
Originally,
Gu Qingfeng thought his power was already strong.
But now,
he realized it was still far from enough.
Dealing with an Evil Spirit like the Drought was nothing to be concerned about in Gu Qingfeng’s eyes.
However,
if he were to face the Nine Heavens Buddha or the terrifying existence that slew the Buddha, it would be completely inadequate.
Even with his own ascension to the Saint Realm, Gu Qingfeng supposed, it would still fall short.
Therefore,
after leaving the valley, Gu Qingfeng returned straight to Gu Family Manor and began secluded cultivation.
This ti,
he had made a decision.
Unless he broke through to the Saint Realm, he would not leave seclusion.
anwhile, during Gu Qingfeng’s seclusion, the news of the Evil Spirit in Shenhe County being slain also reached the court.
Instantly,
the oppressive atmosphere that had filled the court dissipated.
Even Gu Yang’s face bore a few more smiles.
