The Blood Refinement Fiend Emperor destroyed Monk Daming’s body and trapped his Essence Spirit in the ancient coffin, even leaving behind a Mingwang Prayer Bead.

Back when he gathered that information, Su Zimo could not understand.

Why did the Blood Refinement Fiend Emperor spend so much effort to set up such a trap?

It was only when the Blood Refinement Fiend Emperor recounted the situation of the battle 40,000 years ago that Su Zimo understood. Although the Blood Refinement Fiend Emperor won, he was indignant.

He wanted to fight Monk Daming!

The Blood Refinement Fiend Emperor left a chance of survival on purpose. If Monk Daming wanted to leave alive, he would only have a chance if he cultivated the Blood Refinement Fiend Sutra!

The titular disciple of the Buddhist monasteries, Monk Daming, who had the compassion to save the masses, fell into the fiend Dao and cultivated a fiend technique, becoming the fiend he wanted to suppress in the past…

The moment Monk Daming broke free, he had already lost.

Actually, the fight between the two of them did not stop at all. Instead, it lasted for 40,000 years!

Su Zimo sighed emotionally.

Although Monk Daming lost, Su Zimo was still filled with admiration for him.

40,000 years of struggle!

It was dark in that cramped ancient coffin. There was no sound, no life and nothing but a lonely Essence Spirit.

Su Zimo did not dare to imagine how Monk Daming managed to survive the past 40,000 years!

Su Zimo believed that he had a strong will and an unshakable Dao Heart. However, he believed that he would not be able to last 40,000 years if he was in the same position.

“You’re truly amazing,”

The Blood Refinement Fiend Emperor looked at Monk Daming and lamented as well, “Back then, I was truly worried that you would waste your time until your Essence Spirit withered and you died in the ancient coffin.”

“Finally, fufu! You’ve finally escaped!”

The Blood Refinement Fiend Emperor could not help but laugh without concealing the joy and excitement in his heart. “The fact that you’re free means that I’ve won!”

“Furthermore, you’ll never be able to turn the tides this time round!”

“Indeed, I lost after 40,000 years of fighting,”

Monk Daming looked at his hands. “All these years, in order to increase my strength, I cultivated the fiend technique and my hands have been stained with endless blood. I’m no longer worthy of the title of Daming.”

Su Zimo sighed internally.

This was also the reason why Monk Daming gave him the complete Mingwang Prayer Beads after knowing his identity!

Although Monk Daming broke free, he felt guilty and could not face his old friends. In fact, he even wore his long hair to cover his face.

Monk Daming must have endured immense pain and suffering all these years!

After a moment of silence, Monk Daming said, “I’ve lost completely in the battle for the past 40,000 years. However, the battle between us is not over yet. I’ve returned this time round to make a final conclusion!”

“Hahahaha!”

The Blood Refinement Fiend Emperor could not help but burst into laughter. “Daming, don’t harbor any hopes! You know very well that since you’ve cultivated the Blood Refinement Fiend Sutra, you’ll never be able to defeat me!”

Su Zimo furrowed his brows slightly.

The Blood Refinement Fiend Emperor’s words seemed to have a deeper meaning.

Why could one never win the Blood Refinement Fiend Emperor after cultivating the Blood Refinement Fiend Sutra?

The Blood Refinement Fiend Emperor said, “Daming, I’ve just said that you’re the only one worthy of being my opponent in this generation! If possible, I don’t want to refine you into my third clone either.”

“As long as you choose to submit to me today, I’m willing to share this world with you!”

“From this day forth, you, Daming, can stand shoulder to shoulder with me in Tianhuang Mainland. Your status will be above the Emperors and you will rule over Tianhuang Mainland with the ten thousand races under your feet!”

The Emperors were shocked.

Everyone could tell how much the Blood Refinement Fiend Emperor valued Monk Daming.

The Blood Refinement Fiend Emperor could even give up on condensing a third clone to give Monk Daming a chance to be on par with him!

After Monk Daming appeared, there was no one else in the Blood Refinement Fiend Emperor’s eyes.

To be precise, in the eyes of the Blood Refinement Fiend Emperor, everyone else, even Su Zimo, were his blood slaves.

Only Monk Daming was qualified to be on par with him!

Suddenly, a terrifying guess crossed Su Zimo’s mind as he asked, “Blood Fiend, why did you save me twice back in the Thousand Year Blood Sea and East Sea?”

In the Thousand Year Blood Sea, it was the clone of the Blood Refinement Fiend Emperor, the Tao Wu Demon Emperor, that released the blood-colored bubbles to save Su Zimo.

Above the East Sea, the Blood Refinement Fiend Emperor transformed into Hermit and saved him from the hands of the Golden Crow Patriarch.

“Hehe!”

The Blood Refinement Fiend Emperor laughed. “Desolate Martial, haven’t you realized yet? Even you will just merely be a blood slave of mine!”

“Among the many blood slaves, you’re the most outstanding and have the greatest potential. How can I bear to see you die?!”

The Emperors were alarmed and turned to look!

Even the Martial Emperor would only be a blood slave of the Blood Refinement Fiend Emperor—that information was way too terrifying!

Monk Daming turned to Su Zimo. “The reason why the Blood Refinement Fiend Sutra is so powerful is not only because it can refine bloodlines limitlessly. More than that, it’s because those who cultivate this fiend technique will not be able to break free from the control of Blood Fiend.”

Su Zimo had only cultivated a small portion of the Blood Refinement Fiend Sutra on the ancient coffin. Therefore, he could not see through the essence of the fiend technique.

However, after releasing the fiend technique a few times, he could vaguely sense that there was something extremely terrifying behind it!

Therefore, after the battle at the Thousand Year Blood Sea, he did not release the Blood Refinement Fiend Sutra no matter how dangerous it was.

Su Zimo said in a deep voice, “In that case, the deeper you cultivate this fiend technique, the harder it will be for you to break free!”

“That’s right,”

Monk Daming nodded. “That’s why I wanted to kill you on Six Stars Mountain back then. It was because you cultivated this fiend technique and were already considered his blood slave.”

“I didn’t want you to become stronger, that’s why I wanted to kill you. However, even till the end, you did not use the fiend technique. That was why I did not kill you either,”

Monk Daming continued, “The Blood Refinement Fiend Sutra that the two of us cultivated was left behind by Blood Fiend so it has the smallest flaws. However, he left a lot of flaws in the fiend technique cultivated by the others.”

“Therefore, when the same fiend technique is released, it’s difficult for the others to affect us.”

Suddenly, Su Zimo was enlightened.

He suddenly understood many things.

It was no wonder why Monk Daming stopped Heavenly Secrets and Purple Flame from refining their bloodlines in the battle of Heaven and Earth Valley.

Di Yu’s Blood Tribute could not affect Monk Daming either.

On the contrary, Monk Daming could refine it with ease!

Simply put, although they were all cultivating the Blood Refinement Fiend Sutra, the two of them cultivated a more complete and top-tier fiend technique—the others were using an inferior version.

“That’s right,”

The Blood Refinement Fiend Emperor looked at Su Zimo and said proudly, “Desolate Martial, from now on, you’ll be the highest-level blood slave under me. You will only be beneath me and Daming.”

By saying that, it was as though the Blood Refinement Fiend Emperor had bestowed a great gift upon Su Zimo.
