Chapter 275: Blood Lotus Ancestor
Above the vast and boundless sea, the enormous divine beast Black Tortoise roared, its form swelling ever larger.
Li Muyang, controlling the Erald Blade Mantis, carried Shen Miao through the air, waiting for the second phase to begin.
But when the swelling divine beast Black Tortoise reached its limit, it didn’t transform into a more terrifying form.
Instead, it burst open, turning into endless blood that surged in all directions.
In an instant, the sea beneath Li Muyang and Shen Miao turned blood red.
The crimson sea water, as if provoked, rose rapidly, quickly subrging them.
The giant Erald Blade Mantis struggled in the water, but the sea kept spreading, rapidly filling the secret realm.
No matter how high Li Muyang and Shen Miao flew, they were always engulfed by the blood-red waters.
“This is bad, brother-in-law, it’s the final backlash of the Four Symbols Formation! All the remaining energy of the formation is coming at us now!” the infant spirit girl shouted in warning.
As she issued her warning, four enormous shadows suddenly erged from the dark waters.
The Azure Dragon from the east, the Vermilion Bird from the south, the White Tiger from the west, and the Black Tortoise from the north—all four divine beasts they had defeated now appeared in the water, surrounding Li Muyang and Shen Miao in the center.
The giant Erald Blade Mantis quickly joined forces with Shen Miao, warily watching these four erging shadows.
However, these shadows of the divine beasts had no health bars.
After they appeared, they roared and wailed, and then, attracted by an invisible force, the four divine beasts flew above Li Muyang’s head and began to rge in the darkness.
Seeing this, the infant spirit girl on top of the Erald Blade Mantis beca nervous: “This is bad, brother-in-law, the Blood Lotus Sect’s ancestor is manifesting... My father actually buried the ancestor’s phantom in the Four Symbols Formation.”
“Now that the ancestor has manifested, we might not be able to defeat it!”
The infant spirit girl grew anxious.
The four divine beasts continued to rge in the blood water, eventually forming a fierce and terrifying demonic shadow.
Atop the shadow’s head, an extrely blood-red health bar radiated a terrifying deterrent force.
Seeing the ergence of this demonic shadow, Shen Miao almost cried.
“It’s really the Blood Lotus Ancestor... Brother-in-law! We’re dood! The Blood Lotus Ancestor was said to be a true immortal during the ancient tis.”
“Even just a phantom, we can’t defeat it!”
As the daughter of the Blood Lotus Sect leader, Shen Miao was deeply influenced by the sect.
The mont she saw the demonic shadow, she almost knelt down.
But when Li Muyang saw the fierce demonic shadow known as the Blood Lotus Sect’s ancestor, he froze, feeling an inexplicable sense of familiarity as if he had seen it sowhere before.
The fierce shadow was shrouded in blood-red demonic energy, appearing to be a woman.
Her arms were wrapped in blood-red chains, and a strange demonic sword protruded from her back.
The sharp blade replaced her spine, intertwined with her flesh.
It looked creepy and bizarre.
And atop its head, the health bar bore a na that felt familiar.
【Ink Fairy】
At the sight of this health bar, Li Muyang was utterly dumbfounded.
Ah? Ink Fairy?
Li Muyang was bewildered.
But the clear sound of chains clashing rang out, and the fierce demonic shadow roared as it charged at Li Muyang, giving him no ti to think.
The giant Erald Blade Mantis swung its blade arms to defend, but the light of the blades seed to pass right through the shadow as if it had no physical form.
The huge chains it dragged lashed out fiercely, and the mont the Erald Blade Mantis was struck, it was sent flying, a massive surge of malevolent energy erging from its body.
【Demonic Malevolence——30%】
A new energy bar appeared in Li Muyang’s vision. With just one strike, the demonic shadow severely wounded the Erald Blade Mantis.
Li Muyang swung his blade again in resistance.
However, the sharp and unparalleled blade arms slashed out, effortlessly cutting through the mountains behind the shadow.
But the shadow once again passed through the light of the blades, unhard, and the blood-red chains swung out from the darkness once more.
【Demonic Malevolence——67%】
After the strike, the Erald Blade Mantis controlled by Li Muyang was repelled again, its body rising with countless blood-red malevolent energies.
The infant spirit girl Shen Miao hastily tried to help, but her blood arrows could not harm the shadow either.
Instead, the shadow flickered endlessly in the darkness, continuously swinging its chains.
Two minutes later, Li Muyang and Shen Miao were both wrapped in malevolent energy and forcibly ejected from the secret realm, returning to the misty ghost city.
The infant spirit girl, disappointed by their failed challenge, said, “Brother-in-law, the ancestor is indeed powerful. We can’t beat her! We simply can’t.”
The terrifying strength of this Ink Fairy shocked Shen Miao.
She and Li Muyang had joined forces to resist but were easily defeated and expelled from the secret realm.
Moreover, given the reputation of the Blood Lotus Sect’s ancestor, the infant spirit girl’s confidence plumted to rock bottom.
Li Muyang, however, remained silent, squinting his eyes and recalling everything he had just seen.
Ink Fairy...
Back in the ga “Legend of Sword and Fairy,” he had released Ink Fairy in the ancient tis within Nanjiang City and, with Ink Fairy’s assistance, defeated the demonized half-demon general, clearing the ga and obtaining the Startling Swan Immortal Sword.
According to the ga’s storyline, Ink Fairy later took charge of Nanjiang City, replacing the Startling Fairy to protect the city.
But now, the phantom of Ink Fairy appeared in the Four Symbols Formation set up by Shen Miao’s father, becoming the Blood Lotus Sect’s ancestor...
F*ck!
The Blood Lotus Sect was actually a lineage of Ink Fairy?
Li Muyang found it hard to accept.
After clearing the “Legend of Sword and Fairy” ga, he had guessed that even if Ink Fairy took over Nanjiang City, she wouldn’t be able to change the fate of the ancient city’s destruction.
After all, the darkness and chaos and the absence of immortals was an unchangeable reality.
But guessing was one thing; personally witnessing the demonic shadow of Ink Fairy was another.
He couldn’t imagine that the valiant, witty, and humorous Ink Fairy would later beco demonized, even becoming the ancestor of the evil Blood Lotus Sect, leaving behind a toxic legacy.
What exactly happened during the dark chaos of the ancient tis that turned a good person into a demon...
Thinking of the fierce demonic shadow in the secret realm and recalling the valiant and witty fairy from “Legend of Sword and Fairy,” Li Muyang felt a sense of lancholy.
Shen Miao noticed his low spirits and asked curiously, “Brother-in-law, what’s wrong?”
Li Muyang then sighed and said with emotion, “So that’s what the ancestor of your Blood Lotus Sect looks like...”
Despite the interactions within the ga suggesting that Ink Fairy couldn’t possibly belong to the demonic path, she indeed founded the Blood Lotus Sect...
At this mont, Li Muyang felt a sense of loss, as if seeing a friend stray down the wrong path.
He even wanted to return to the ga “Legend of Sword and Fairy” to et the witty and humorous Ink Fairy.
But once the ga was cleared, it was no longer accessible.
All Li Muyang could do was gaze at the greyed-out “Legend of Sword and Fairy” (Closed) entry on the system list and sigh softly.
