The Second Ring area is vast, and it took quite so ti to reach the First Ring area from here.
When Chen Yu arrived at the site of the Bloodthirsty Trial, the Three Young Ancestors and their retinues were already there, seemingly just waiting for him.
This made Chen Yu feel slightly embarrassed, but he didn’t think much of it.
They all reside in the First Ring, while Chen Yu is in the Second Ring, so arriving late was quite normal.
The camps of the Three Young Ancestors were originally observing each other, probing for each other’s details,
But at this mont, as Chen Yu arrived, everyone’s gaze involuntarily fell on him.
A resident of the Second Ring, at the Late Stage of Sky Sea, participating in the Bloodthirsty Trial, was already quite rare.
"Is this the person who defeated the Iron Blood Venerable?"
In Young Master Gu’s camp, a man covered in black scales, exuding a chilling aura, glanced over.
Chen Yu’s defeat of the Iron Blood Venerable and subsequent joining of Young Master Wei’s camp gave the impression that it was Young Master Wei’s retinue who defeated Young Master Gu’s retinue, making Young Master Wei’s side seem stronger.
Therefore, all of Young Master Gu’s followers looked at Chen Yu with unfriendly expressions, their hostility unhidden.
"Boss Fu, you were there during that battle, how strong is this person?"
In Long Sha Zu’s team, a Blood Man inquired.
"I can only say slightly stronger than the Iron Blood Venerable. If I were to take action, I’d take his head within ten moves."
Fu Xue i swayed her jade-green serpent tail, wearing a wickedly charming smile.
"Hahaha, indeed, Boss Fu’s reputation is not for nothing."
Another person laughed.
Long Sha Zu’s five followers consisted of four n and one woman, but all four male followers called Fu Xue i "Boss Fu."
"Brother Jin, co quickly, the trial is about to begin."
Young Master Wei said, giving others the impression that he was much gentler than usual.
"Hmph, audacious to be late for the Bloodthirsty Trial. It’s as if the three Young Ancestors are being disrespected."
A middle-aged man with a dark face snorted coldly.
Chen Yu rembered this person; the intelligence report sent earlier indicated that he was the strongest retinue on Young Master Wei’s side.
Chen Yu found this person’s hostility inexplicable. Aren’t they all on the sa team?
"Jin Yudong, this is your Token. It will guide you once you enter the trial."
"In the first stage of the Bloodthirsty Trial, everyone will be scattered. We need to gather as quickly as possible to proceed to the second stage."
Young Master Wei took out a round Token and explained briefly.
Just at that mont.
"The Bloodthirsty Trial begins!"
On a blood peak in the distance, a vague blood shadow appeared at so point, its voice echoing throughout the land.
At the sa ti.
A large square in front suddenly began to tremble, the patterns on it flickering with bloodlight.
A round hole appeared at the center of the square, a rich blood aura wafting out. Many mbers of the Blood Race took deep breaths, revealing expressions of delight.
The hole grew larger, eventually expanding to a five-zhang diater.
Inside was a scene of blood-colored ripples, surging like sea waves, as if it were a bottomless Blood Sea.
"Go!"
From Young Master Gu’s side, six people imdiately moved, heading directly towards the blood-colored ripples.
"Only two Young Ancestors and their retinues can pass the second stage, so you all need to join as quickly as possible!"
Young Master Wei looked at the dark-faced middle-aged man, the slender woman, Chen Yu, and others, speaking solemnly.
With that said, he dashed out first, followed by the others, entering the blood-colored ripples.
Halfway up a distant mountain.
Ice Sun Venerate watched as Chen Yu’s figure disappeared, sighing inwardly, "It would be best if this boy dies inside."
Whoosh!
A figure darted over, heading straight for Ice Sun Venerate.
"My lord, I have found so clues."
Housekeeper Wang transmitted a ssage to Ice Sun Venerate: "Rumor has it that Jin Yudong was involved in an operation to surround Chen Yu and encountered him, allowing Chen Yu to escape..."
Housekeeper Wang relayed the information he had gathered recently.
From this alone, it seed only slightly odd, without significant doubt.
But broadening the perspective and considering Jin Yudong’s changes over ti suggested a possibility.
"Could it be... this Jin Yudong is no longer the sa as he once was!"
Ice Sun Venerate’s pupils suddenly shrank.
This was his bold speculation, without any concrete evidence.
Yet he believed this possibility was enormously high!
Jin Yudong might have already been replaced by Chen Yu!
Otherwise, how to explain such a vast transformation in an ordinary blood mber, suddenly erging like a reborn butterfly, rising rapidly within months, even giving Ice Sun Venerate a hard ti?
Only this explanation perfectly accounts for why when Jin Yudong encountered Chen Yu, he was only wounded, allowing Chen Yu to escape, because the real Jin Yudong was already dead, and it was all a lie fabricated by Chen Yu.
"My lord, should we inform the other higher-ups about this matter?"
Housekeeper Wang asked.
The matter was grave, and without firm evidence, it was best to report and thoroughly investigate Jin Yudong to find proof.
"No need, I have already determined he is Chen Yu. Once he exits the Bloodthirsty Trial, I will personally capture him!"
Ice Sun Venerate’s eyes shone with a sharp light, a smile playing at his lips.
He had been troubled by Chen Yu’s matter for quite so ti, even to the point of regret!
Precisely for this reason, he needed to vent, wanting to personally deal with Chen Yu and settle the matter completely!
Moreover, if he reported it, once Chen Yu was captured, others would share the reward, and his share would be limited.
By personally capturing Chen Yu, the exorbitant bounty issued by Heart Extinguishing Emperor would be entirely his!
Ice Sun Venerate also did not understand why the Heart Extinguishing Emperor was so focused on one human boy, even personally issuing a bounty.
The generous bounty is enough to allow the Ice Sun Venerate to smoothly advance to the rank of King, greatly enhancing his combat power.
"My lord, we have no conclusive evidence, Jin Yudong is now under the Young Ancestor, I fear it might be difficult..."
The housekeeper was sowhat worried.
After all, he was the one investigating these matters, and if anything went wrong, he couldn’t escape responsibility.
"Once I catch him, the evidence will naturally be there!"
The Ice Sun Venerate snorted coldly.
Compared to Housekeeper Wang’s cautiousness, he was more decisive and strong-willed, convinced that Jin Yudong had been replaced by Chen Yu.
"Jin Yudong, I hope you co out alive."
The Ice Sun Venerate smiled faintly, thinking the world is truly unpredictable; just monts ago, he wished for Chen Yu to die in the trial.
...
The mont Chen Yu entered the Bloodthirsty Trial, his mysterious heart began to beat faster, conveying a sense of kinship and longing.
This feeling was akin to encountering the descendants of the Blood-sucking Clan but much stronger.
When the scene before him beca clear, Chen Yu found himself in an unfamiliar space.
In front of him was a twisted, uneven blood-red wall, much like the red rocky ground beneath his feet.
This was a wide passage; after walking a distance, Chen Yu discovered it branched out in all directions, like a maze.
The walls here were connected to the ground, made of the sa material, and occasionally he could spot so plants, all rare treasures of the Blood Path. Chen Yu only picked those of high value.
"Is this really the inside of a King-level Blood-sucking Clan descendant’s corpse?"
Chen Yu was sowhat doubtful, thinking this place was too vast.
If it truly was, then the corpse must have been modified.
Chen Yu took out a round token given to him by Young Master Wei before entering the trial.
Buzz!
The token emitted a faint blood-light and floated in a certain direction.
"If Young Master Wei wins, it could also benefit ."
Chen Yu thought to himself, deciding to do his duty.
In the Blood Race, the descendants of the Blood-sucking Clan held an extraordinary status.
Chen Yu needed a vast amount of Battle rit Points to enter the first ring; with Young Master Wei’s help, it might be easier.
And after entering the first ring, through Young Master Wei, he could secure a more central position.
Swish!
Chen Yu dashed forward, following the token’s guidance, preparing to et Young Master Wei.
Of course, if he encountered precious resources along the way, he would pick them up.
At a certain point, Chen Yu discovered the corner of the wall on the left exuded a dense blood aura.
Bang!
With a flick of his finger, a strong gust tore through, shattering the blood-red rocky soil.
Inside, a half-ter long and wide blood-red stone was revealed, within which blood-light seed to flow, refracting an enchanting scarlet radiance.
"Blood Essence Crystal Stone?"
Chen Yu recognized this treasure.
Blood Essence Crystal Stone is a crystal ford by blood; it might contain various blood types or minerals.
From this Blood Essence Crystal Stone, Chen Yu sensed a strong blood aura, and the longing from his mysterious heart intensified.
"This Blood Essence Crystal Stone might contain so blood from the descendants of the Blood-sucking Clan."
Chen Yu’s face lit up with joy, preparing to dig it out.
Just then.
A cold voice rang out: "Stop, this stone is mine. Leave now, and perhaps you’ll have a chance to live!"
At the other end of the blood-colored passage, there appeared a blue lizard. It was embedded at the top of the wall, slightly opening its mouth to spit out a blue cold mist, freezing everything around it.
"I’ll give you back the sa words, leave now, and perhaps you’ll have a chance to live!"
Chen Yu glared at the blue lizard for a mont, then ignored it.
He forcefully dug with his hand and took the Blood Essence Crystal Stone.
"You’re courting death, don’t you know who I am? Daring to take a treasure right under my nose."
The blue lizard snarled nacingly.
"Don’t recognize you."
Chen Yu indeed had no impression.
He had only paid attention to the three Young Ancestors and the strongest followers from the three factions on the list back then.
Among them, there was no ntion of this blue lizard.
"I’ve heard the rumors about you, all saying you’re extrely arrogant, but being arrogant in front of is your biggest mistake in life!"
It didn’t take Chen Yu seriously at all, considering itself a mid-strength follower within Long Sha Zu’s faction.
While Chen Yu’s strength was ranked at the bottom among followers of the three factions.
Roar!
It roared, its whole body erupting with astonishing blue cold air, transforming into a boundless cold current, rushing out.
Where the cold current passed, everything around froze, and the space was filled with ice.
"Hmph, don’t know what’s good for you."
Chen Yu snorted softly, waving his arm to stir up a wild black wind.
Instantly, endless blood-colored flas surged from the black wind, transforming into a terrifying tornado, rushing forward.
Previously, Chen Yu worried that too many of his techniques couldn’t be used, potentially leading to trouble and danger.
But with only himself and one enemy here, as long as he killed the enemy, even revealing his true identity wouldn’t matter.
Bang! Pang! Boom!
The black and red fla tornado swept forth, instantly shredding the frozen current, advancing toward the blue lizard.
"Impossible, how can your power be this strong? This fla... is the Blood Crystal Fla!"
The blue lizard scread in horror.
