Chapter 2432 Blood Domain of Ten Thousand Beasts
'Shuh! '
A beam of blood-red light shot into the depths of the void.
Ghostly Great Sage's face turned ashen. Sensing the overwhelming killing intent of the Banyan Tree King, he knew that things would not end well today. He wondered why this suddenly appearing tree demon harbored such deep hatred for the Demon Realm.
Although the remnants of the demon realm are still universally hated, after so many years, unless constantly reminded of their origins, the hatred that the demon cultivators of this realm harbor towards the demon realm has long since faded.
Time is the most terrifying thing. Just as living beings in times of peace cannot understand the horrors of chaos, later generations can hardly deeply feel the pain and sacrifices of their ancestors from history.
When the Great Sage Ghostly Hideout awakened his spiritual intelligence, the great war between the two realms had already ended. People like them, who were born and raised in this world, might not have much of a sense of belonging to the spirit world. They only leaned slightly towards the spirit world because it was their kind.
In the eyes of some demon saints, there is no essential difference between the spirit realm and the demon realm. They are both enemies who covet the treasure of this realm, and that treasure should belong to the cultivators of this realm!
The Banyan King clearly didn't see it that way; it was obviously determined to fight him to the death. What was even more infuriating was that this formidable enemy was someone he had brought in!
At this moment, it was too late for the Great Sage Ghostly Hideout to regret it. He couldn't even exonerate himself, because the demon seed must be accepted by the host from the bottom of his heart in order to fully integrate with the host. If one is unwilling to submit to the demon, one can be like the Great Sage Repentance, who would rather die than submit.
His only hope now lies in the depths of this void. If he can subdue that supreme treasure, he will have the ability to fight against the Banyan Tree King. But in reality, he doesn't know much more than the other party.
The guidance of the Great Sage of Repentance abruptly ended here. He had been searching not only for the guy who had come in earlier, but also for any traces left by the Great Sage of Repentance, but to no avail.
Ghostly Great Sage suddenly sensed danger and roared into the deep void, "Fellow Daoist, I know you can hear me! Why don't you show yourself at once and join me in dealing with this tree demon? Or are you going to..."
The roar contained his supernatural power; the sound rolled like thunder, shaking the void, and was nothing more than some admonitions about the interdependence of the people.
The guy who used to act like a ghost was his only ally.
Seeing that his roar went unanswered, Ghostly Great Sage cried out in alarm, "Do you know where this place is? What is here? The supreme treasure that countless fellow cultivators have been dreaming of is right here!"
If persuasion fails, then bribery will suffice.
The Great Sage Ghostly is now facing a life-or-death crisis. He can only throw out his most precious treasure to attract the other party to show themselves, but the other party still does not react at all. What's hateful is that the tree demon only has eyes for him and is relentlessly pursuing him.
Suddenly, the Great Sage Ghostly Hide felt a strong sense of crisis. He didn't know when, but the surrounding void was no longer empty. It had been filled with energy roots of all sizes.
The bloodstains stopped abruptly, and the surrounding aerial roots swayed gently. Countless aerial roots formed a vast jungle, and the dense leaves formed a green ocean.
Unbeknownst to the Great Sage Ghost, he was surrounded by this jungle. The surrounding leaves and aerial roots were so dense that they were impenetrable, making it far more oppressive than a real forest.
A figure appeared amidst the blood-red light. The Great Sage Ghostly Hidden's expression was extremely solemn. He sensed the aura of a Dharma Domain from the jungle. This jungle was the Dharma Domain of the Banyan Tree King. What appeared to be just some ordinary aerial roots were actually the strongest Dharma Domain he had ever encountered in his life!
The Great Sage of Ghostly Concealment's eyes turned into blood-red pupils. As his gaze fell upon them, the tree roots in his field of vision suddenly twisted and contorted. A bizarre scene unfolded as these tree roots transformed into bloody hands.
These bloody hands twisted even more violently, like monsters that had been skinned, with flesh and blood exposed. Their fingers frantically grabbed at something around them. The fresh scent that originally belonged to the forest was now covered by the thick, pungent smell of blood, making it a truly hellish scene.
'Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!'
This place is like a lair of blood hands, with countless blood hands densely packed like a forest, surging in all directions like a tidal wave, overwhelming everything in their path.
'Bang bang bang...'
The blood-red hands frantically tore at the surrounding aerial roots, and in the blink of an eye, countless aerial roots shattered, their fragments swallowed by the waves of blood-red hands. But the jungle was too vast; for every layer of aerial roots the blood-red hands tore apart, another layer awaited them outside, seemingly without end.
Suddenly, a green glow appeared deep in the jungle, and abundant vitality instantly filled the forest.
‘Wow! ’
The green light also formed a green tide, surging towards the blood hand from all directions.
'boom! ’
The green tide collided with the blood hands. The vast green tide swept over the blood hands, and those frenzied blood hands suddenly became stiff. Then, layer upon layer of bloody skin peeled off their bodies, and finally, they turned back into the aerial roots of the banyan tree.
In an instant, the forest was cleansed, and all the smell of blood was swept away!
Seeing this, the Great Sage Ghostly Hide-and-Seek's gaze sharpened, and a flash of spiritual light appeared beside him. From the light, a spirit beast emerged, revealing its true form.
The demonic form of the Ghostly Great Sage was originally a strange creature, with a pair of dragon horns on its head, tortoise-shell-like patterns on its back, a tiger tail trailing behind it, and a pair of fiery phoenix wings growing from its sides...
Besides these most obvious characteristics, many organs and parts of the demon's body are also very special, resembling some ancient mythical beasts. However, these fragments appearing together on a single spirit beast seem forcibly pieced together, incongruous and out of place; it's impossible for the world to have given birth to such a monster!
Moreover, the dragon horns, phoenix wings, and other organs on the Ghostly Great Sage's body are subtly different from those of real dragon horns and phoenix wings, and seem to lack some of the charm.
'Shuh! '
Wings spread wide.
The sound that came out of the mouth of the Great Sage Ghostly Hidden was actually the cry of a phoenix. His demonic body was engulfed in flames, and then a fire phoenix was born riding the fire, while the demonic body of the Great Sage Ghostly Hidden ...
The moment the fire phoenix appeared, fires raged throughout the jungle. What was even more astonishing was that the flames were a strange mixture of phoenix true fire and some other demonic fires!
The entire jungle was set ablaze, turning into a sea of fire. The fire was extremely terrifying, and countless aerial roots turned charred black and burned to ashes.
The fire phoenix flapped its wings and cruised above the sea of fire, spreading its true phoenix fire, making the fire even more ferocious.
But beneath that sea of fire, from the ashes of the burning aerial roots, new green shoots were sprouting.
Wild fire, in spring!
Just like the forests outside, the vitality of plants is very strong. Unless the wildfire completely destroys their root system, they can quickly regain their vitality after the fire is extinguished.
The fire has not yet been extinguished, but the jungle has been revitalized. The newly grown aerial roots and branches are burned to ashes by the fire, and this cycle repeats itself. The jungle's vitality is endless, but the fire is gradually diminishing.
Once the flames weakened, countless green rays immediately emerged from the ruins.
At this point, the flames could no longer immediately burn the aerial roots to ashes, and the jungle gradually returned to its original state.
Seeing that even the Phoenix True Fire could not break the Banyan Tree King's domain, the flames around the Great Sage Ghostly Hidden suddenly turned into ripples of water. Accompanied by a deep roar, a tortoise shell rose from the water, and the Great Sage Ghostly Hidden transformed into a black tortoise.
This is the cultivation technique he has been practicing for many years, collecting the bloodlines of various mythical beasts and integrating them into his own body. When facing enemies, he can transform into the body of an ancient mythical beast and unleash the corresponding supernatural powers.
Containing so many bloodlines within his body naturally carries hidden dangers. This is thanks to his bloodline, and it's also a way to suppress the demonic seed within him. Unfortunately, true descendants of divine beasts are extremely rare in this world, so he can only continuously purify them from those chaotic bloodlines, resulting in a somewhat hybrid supernatural power.
For example, this Xuan Turtle's body is still far from his target, the Xuanwu's body.
If he had cultivated the Xuanwu Body, he could have directly cultivated the Xuanwu clan's divine abilities, and this trip wouldn't have been so turbulent.
‘Wow! ’
With a slight movement of its body, the Xuan Turtle in the water unleashed a torrent of water from the heavens, transforming the jungle into a vast ocean.
The water was raging, rising higher and higher, threatening to submerge the jungle, when the Banyan King's laughter rang out all around, "I was just roasted by the fire and was very thirsty. Thank you, fellow Daoist, for bringing me this sweet rain!"
The Banyan King has countless clones, spanning the entire realm. What kind of terrain hasn't it seen?
Whether it's snow-capped mountains and ice fields, barren deserts and sand dunes, foul-smelling swamps, or vast oceans, it can take root anywhere!
Before the words were even finished, the water level dropped visibly, and the water gushed out, becoming even greener.
‘Wow! ’
The black tortoise raised its head, its expression extremely grim. Even though it knew its supernatural powers were no match for the Banyan Tree King, it hadn't expected to become its provisions.
"Roar!"
Suddenly, a dragon's roar echoed through the forest.
The Great Sage Ghostly Hideout transformed into a green dragon once more. The dragon's body soared upwards, accompanied by wind and clouds, and strange phenomena arose once more in the forest.
Suddenly, patches of blue light appeared in the forest. The aerial roots absorbed the blue light and sprouted tender buds, new branches, and root systems.
Under the Azure Dragon's divine power, the forest was not only not damaged, but became even more lush. However, this forest seemed out of place compared to the previous one, as if it had been forcibly taken over by the Azure Dragon.
The next moment, the Banyan King roared in a deep voice, "I will not allow any plant to grow beneath me!"
This statement was so powerful that in an instant, the new branches and leaves withered, the new roots died, and the forest returned to its original state.
Next, the Great Sage Ghostly Hideout continuously transformed into various demonic forms and used all sorts of supernatural powers, but he was unable to truly destroy the jungle or disrupt this domain.
Finally, the Great Sage Ghostly Reveals his demonic form again, seemingly having exhausted all his tricks.
He had just gone through great lengths and used all sorts of supernatural powers, but could only slightly restrain the jungle. Now that he had just stopped, the Qi Roots surged towards him like countless tree demons.
"Humph!"
How could the Great Sage Ghostly Hidden simply sit idly by and wait to die? What had just happened was merely a prelude. A strange bell had appeared near his mouth at some unknown time. The surface of the bell looked like it was covered with a layer of human skin, with clearly visible blood vessels. The bell tongue below was a piece of bone, also covered with blood vessels.
This treasure is named the Navel Bell, which was his signature magical artifact. Later, he refined it into a true treasure.
'Boom boom boom...'
The bell vibrated, making a sound like a drum being struck.
As the bell rang, a bloody light rose from the jungle again. Dense blood vessels appeared on the surface of the aerial roots, seeping into their interiors and spreading throughout the jungle, forming an endless blood net. The navel bell in his hand was at the center of this blood net!
This is the true domain of the Great Sage Ghostly Hidden, named the Blood Domain of Ten Thousand Beasts!
If he could gather the bloodlines of ten thousand ancient spirit beasts, what would the mere Banyan Tree King be?
'Boom boom boom...'
'Dong dong...'
……
The bell rang louder and louder, and the blood threads cut through the jungle like sharp blades. The Great Sage Ghostly Hideout lifted the bell in his hand, and countless blood threads were drawn out of the jungle, transforming into various blood beasts and leaving behind patches of withered yellow.
Just then, the Great Sage Ghostly Hideout frowned and heard some noise mixed in with the bell. Compared with the bell, the noise sounded very ethereal, but it became clearer and clearer, and it rang out from all directions.
The Great Sage Ghostly Hidden was astonished to see that the forest had actually produced fruit. The red fruit looked like little embroidered balls, and the noise was coming from inside them.
However, these sounds were initially just background noise, but before the Great Sage Ghostly Hideout could react, they were already comparable to the sound of a bell.
"not good!"
The Great Sage Ghostly Hides the Bell with all his might, but the sound of the bell grew weaker and weaker. It wasn't that the sound of the bell was getting weaker, but rather that the ethereal voice was getting louder and louder.
'when! ’
The umbilical bell trembled, its sound became disordered, and it almost went out of control. Instantly, countless blood threads intertwined, and the foundation of the Blood Domain of Ten Thousand Beasts was shaken.
'when! ’
'when! ’
……
Despite the Great Sage Ghostly's best efforts, the Navel Bell kept escaping his control.
Gradually, a look of horror appeared on his face. The Banyan King had not used any external object from beginning to end.
"you……"
At this moment, the Ghostly Great Sage finally realized what kind of opponent he was facing!
The Banyan King is probably only one step away from becoming a celestial demon!
Almost all the blood vessels were forced out, drifting like rootless duckweed. The Great Sage Ghostly Hidden had never imagined that his proud Blood Domain of Ten Thousand Beasts would be so fragile!
His expression suddenly became extremely ferocious, like a demon, and black things grew from his seven orifices, resembling a black lotus, which finally formed a lotus flower on the top of the Ghostly Great Sage's head.
At this moment, the demonic seed within Ghostly Great Sage ignited, unleashing the trump card given to him by the demon!
The lotus flower appears both real and illusory; with a gentle sway, it drifts away like smoke.
Black smoke drifted into the jungle. According to the demon lord, any demon saint in this world who is hit by this spell will either go mad or have their soul and spirit destroyed!
However, the scene that the Ghostly Great Sage had hoped for did not appear, and the jungle remained full of life.
Where Ghostly Great Sage cannot see, some of the Banyan Tree King's scattered clones emit black energy, which he then disperses into each clone, greatly reducing the threat of the black energy.
These incarnations, with their concentrated aura, exerted their full power to suppress the dark energy.
In the ruins.
The Blood Domain of Ten Thousand Beasts finally collapsed, and the Navel Bell emitted its last, low ringing sound. Even more terrifying, the skin on the Great Sage Ghostly Hidden's body gradually turned into tree bark, seemingly about to be assimilated and devoured by this jungle!
"what……"
With a piercing scream, the Great Sage Ghostly Hidden was completely engulfed by the Qi Roots, and the place where he stood turned into a huge root ball.
Before the sea of light.
Qingyuan stood there the whole time, watching the Banyan King eliminate the Ghostly Great Sage, without making a move.
At that moment, his expression shifted slightly as he saw a jungle appear at the edge of his vision. It was a living jungle, growing rapidly and spreading towards him.
