When the moon was high in the sky, Chi Lianxue's large house had already gathered several people. They were all survivors from Dabai Village who had embarked on the Immortal Path.
However, their purpose in gathering was not to transmit thods or cultivate.
Tie Zhu placed a small bowl in front of each person. Finally, he took a small bowl himself and walked to the far side.
Then, Tie Zhu drew a dagger from his waist and forcefully made a cut on the fingertip of his left middle finger. Using his mana, he forced a column of blood from the wound.
After about one hundred milliliters had dripped, Tie Zhu stopped his mana, clenched the wound shut, and then handed the dagger to the person on his right.
The second person had not entered the Qi Cultivation Stage and could not use mana, so he could only lightly slice across his wrist, making an inch-long wound. He let his wrist hang down, allowing the blood to naturally flow into the small bowl. After accumulating about one hundred milliliters, he also began to bandage his wound.
The third person took the dagger and gently made a cut on his hand, then let the blood drip into the small bowl.
Everyone behaved normally, as if what they were doing was nothing out of the ordinary. Their movents were quick and precise, as if they had done this many tis before. It had only been a quarter of an hour when the last person provided a hundred milliliters of blood. The entire house was filled with a mysterious atmosphere.
During the bloodletting, Chi Lianxue looked tense. It wasn't until the last person had finished bleeding that his expression relaxed, and he said, "Thank you for your hard work."
Taking one hundred milliliters of blood every ten days might be a burden for ordinary people, but these were individuals who had embarked on the path of cultivation, possessing strong and resilient bodies—it was truly nothing for them. Yet, seeing such reality, these farr's sons were still sowhat moved, "It's nothing to worry about, master."
Chi Lianxue nodded and carefully poured the blood from several people into a red gourd he carried with him and asked, "Any other problems with cultivation?"
At that mont, a lazy voice that was sowhat annoying interjected, "Mr. Chi, I do have a few questions about cultivation I'd like to ask."
Chi Lianxue nearly spilled the blood in his hand. After stabilizing the bowl, he quickly turned around and looked out the window, "Daoist Fellow Wang, how are you here? You know that invading soone's Mystical Altar is a serious cri, right?"
Hell! Have my Spirit Prohibitions failed?
Wang Qi raised an eyebrow, "Oh, playing the bla ga? May I ask, according to the laws of the Immortal Alliance, what should be the punishnt for secretly using human blood and other bodily substances for cultivation?"
During the Ancient thod Era, eighty thousand years ago, paths of the Demon Path that involved cannibalistic practices had repeatedly beco mainstream among the Human Clan. The end of the Demon Path era, inevitably marked by the disruption of hereditary lines and the eventual inability of humans to practice demonic arts, would concurrently signal the decline of the Human Clan and the rise of the Demon Clan. The Modern Cultivator promotes prosperity alongside Heaven and Earth, pooling the wisdom of thousands to seek the Great Dao and reach the supre state where everyone is like a dragon, thus, Modern Cultivation stands completely opposed to the cannibalistic Demon Path. Even before the establishnt of the Immortal Alliance, Modern Cultivators agreed that any Evil Cultivator who practiced using Human Clan for cultivation could be directly executed!
Even if secret techniques or experints required human blood, Modern Cultivators had to go through multiple layers of approval before acquiring blood from blood banks, ensuring the blood's source was absolutely reliable.
Unauthorized blood collection is a legal violation; the punishnt varies with the severity of the case, with the most extre penalty being imdiate execution on the spot.
"Hmm," Chi Lianxue huffed lightly. Wang Qi's words essentially left no room for maneuver between them; either he provided an explanation to Wang Qi, or he made sure Wang Qi could never speak again. There were no other possibilities.
But for him, Chi Lianxue, the Sect Leader of the Red Sun Sect, to bow to a Qi Cultivation Cultivator? That was simply preposterous!
Upon this thought, Chi Lianxue's body rapidly tinted a thin shade of red, resembling both fla and blood.
The Red Sun Sect was founded on Yang Fire, rooted in the aggressive spirit of Yang and blood, and commanded the Divine Skill of Positive Yang Fla. It had established an illustrious reputation twenty thousand years ago and was certainly not an adversary to be taken lightly!
Wang Qi wore a look of disdain, pressing his hand against the Kun Mountain Divine Sword at his waist. He had co prepared, the sword not sheathed within a Storage Bag, but slung at his waist. Zhen Chan had been monitoring Chi Lianxue at his request. Seeing this scene, the old man notified Wang Qi to co and watch the show.
As for the external Early Warning and Defensive Spirit Prohibitions, they too had been undone by Zhen Chan. Nominally, the Red Sun Sect was a Modern Sect, but in essence, it was just another Ancient thod Sect. Zhen Chan might not understand Modern Cultivation, but he was well-versed in the Ancient thod, naturally allowing Wang Qi to slip through Chi Lianxue's security zone silently.
It was because of this that Wang Qi chose to co out and confront directly. Although Chi Lianxue was a Foundation Establishnt Cultivator, and his absolute power was more than ten tis his own, his efficiency in cultivation techniques and spells were quite poor, further lacking compared to even the new disciples in the Immortal Institute before exams, not to ntion elites like Ai Changyuan.
An enemy with brute strength alone was not worth worrying about!
Sensing the tension in the air as swords were drawn and crossbows cocked, a naive young man hurriedly jumped between the two, "Master, Wang Qi, let's not fight! We can talk this through, there's no need for violence!"
Chi Lianxue shouted, "Bai Xin, step aside! This boy is overwhelmingly aggressive, trying to humiliate ; I cannot just let it go!"
"Nonsense." Wang Qi rolled his eyes, "Tie Zhu, step back a bit, okay? Don't bla if I accidentally hurt you while I'm slaying demons!"
Chi Lianxue bellowed, "You bastard, daring to be so arrogant in my Mystical Altar?"
"I'm already here; you dare to boast about 'your Mystical Altar'?" Wang Qi chuckled, "If you an that your altar has so irrelevant people, and I shouldn't use my swordsmanship—sorry, but ever since I grasped the 'Transformation' from group theory, the difference between swordsmanship, fist techniques, hand techniques, and leg techniques really isn't that big to ."
"Wang Qi, Master didn't an that... he, he... we are all here voluntarily!" Tie Zhu hurriedly explained.
"Gathering human blood without consent is already against the law," Wang Qi said. "You were probably deceived."
Seeing that reasoning was futile with Wang Qi, Tie Zhu suddenly knelt in front of Chi Lianxue, "Master, please just explain to Wang Qi! You're a good person, you... you..."
"Bai Xin, get up!" Chi Lianxue commanded, "I'm not so low as to bow to a re Qi Cultivation."
"You've got two things wrong," Wang Qi shook his head vigorously, "First, it's not about bowing to , but about confessing to the laws of the Immortal Alliance. Second, a cripple like you with hidden injuries and a drained life span who can't even break through to the Golden Core Stage dares talk about qualifications?"
Chi Lianxue's pupils narrowed suddenly, rage from the touch of a sore spot caused him to explode, "Brat, you're courting death!"
A scorching fireball suddenly erupted from his hand, charging towards Wang Qi with boundless fury. Feeling the heat wave rushing toward his face, Wang Qi flicked his wrist and the Kun Mountain Sword parried, easily deflecting the spell. Chi Lianxue was about to attack again when Tie Zhu suddenly stood between them, "Master, stop fighting—Wang Qi, what you said was too harsh; Master has burned his life span for the sake of the Human Clan!"
