Chapter 171.1 Jie Se’s Reappearance (1/2)
The entire venue was shrouded in a blood-tinted fog. All the people at the Dragon Cultivation Town were fearful; no one dared to enter the assembly grounds anymore. Anyone who went there lost their minds immediately and never came out.
Wang Ke was anxious to an extreme. Zi Bufan, you bast*rd! You want to trick all these people to claim revenge. Why bring me into this?
A loud cry bombarded the entire cultivation town. "Humph, the Blood-nourishing Array? How dare you!"
"He’s coming! The powerhouse hiding in the Dragon Cultivation Town is finally coming!" Zhang Zhengdao said.
Next, they saw that someone dashed into the sky without the help of any artifacts; the person was floating in midair, just like that.
"Astral Infant Stage?" The Snake King was taken aback.
It was a muscular man wearing a violet gold taoist robe. He stood loftily with a chowrie in his hand. In the blink of an eye, he was already there, levitating near God Wang Tower.
"It’s the Golden Crow Sect Lord, Zi Chongshan!" Zhang Zhengdao said in shock.
"The Golden Crow Sect Lord?" Wang Ke was also in a daze. Even a Sect Lord is here!
"Demon, how dare you set up such an array here. You must be sick of living!" the newcomer shouted.
He swung his chowrie, and dark clouds appeared out of nowhere, which started gathering above the assembly grounds. The billowing clouds exerted great pressure on Wang Ke and the others.
Wang Ke could foresee the incoming attack and quickly shouted, "Golden Crow Sect Lord, don’t attack us! It’s me! We’re on the same side! I’m innocent! I’m being forced to stand here!"
"Rumble!"
The dense thunderclouds veiled the sky as lightning bolts forked amongst them. The Golden Crow Sect Lord kept his eyes on Wang Ke.
Zhang Zhengdao and the Snake King were also staring at Wang Ke. Damn, do you know anything else other than boasting? You don’t even know the Golden Crow Sect Lord, yet you’re already trying to curry favor? On the same side? Who’s on your side?
"Rumble! Booom!"
A million lightning bolts were shot from the thunderclouds; all at once, like a downpour of lightning.
The lightning bolts swiftly bombarded the entire assembly area. The strikes were so powerful that blood was splattered all over, and the explosion created an opening in the fog.
Wang Ke looked through the opening and was able to see a giant demonic crocodile lying dead in a pool of blood. Its essence was immediately drawn, rising into the air. Some of it dispersed into the mist clouds, while most was drawn toward the leyline gold dragon at the center. The giant reptile turned into a dry corpse in the blink of an eye.
The crocodile wasn’t the exception; everyone who was killed met the same fate. Once dead, their blood essence would be drained by the leyline gold dragon, and their bodies sucked dry. It was a terrifying sight to behold.
The leyline gold dragon was at the moment fully tainted, turning into a crimson dragon.
"Is it truly the Blood Nourishing Dragon Array?" Zhang Zhengdao said with a worried look.
"The Blood Nourishing Dragon Array? So it was planned to use everyone’s blood essence to nourish that blood dragon. But why do this?" Wang Ke couldn’t understand the intention behind the scheme.
"This is a forbidden spell. Rumor has it that someone used the array a few hundred years ago, draining the blood of an entire city in the mortal zone; only then did he manage to create a blood dragon! The person’s actions did stir the anger of both Heaven and men. It was so terrifying that it couldn’t be tolerated! I didn’t expect that it would be used again!" Zhang Zhengdao said with worry.
"Using the blood of an entire city to create a blood dragon?" Wang Ke was shocked by that revelation.
"Rumble! Booom!"
The Lightning Shower continued to rain down, sending densely-packed lightning bolts. The bombardment started to disperse the blood mist, gradually revealing the leyline blood dragon’s silhouette. The dragon’s head became visible, along with a blood-colored man sitting cross legged on the dragon’s head. The top half of his body was bare, yet coated with blood. He had apparently fused with the blood dragon’s head.
"So, that’s the person controlling the blood dragon? He’s the one controlling the Blood Nourishing Dragon Array, too?" Zhang Zhengdao said.
Suddenly, Wang Ke widened his eyes in shock, "Damn! How… It’s him?"
"You evil incarnate! So it’s you who’s ravaging the living!?" Zi Chongshan roared. He then flung his chowrie; countless lightning bolts surged towards the bloodiest silhouettes immediately after.
"Roar!"
The blood dragon roared, and clouds of blood Qi gushed from its bloodied head, forming a barrier to envelop the dragon’s head and the man on top.
"Rumble! Booom!" Countless lightning bolts struck the blood barrier and made it shake violently.
The bloodied man on top of the dragon’s head lifted his own head and looked into the sky. He had a chilling and murderous look on his face.
"Is it really that lunatic? Do you really think I wouldn’t recognize you, just because you painted yourself red?" Wang Ke gasped.
"It’s him? Is it really him? Hmm? Wang Ke, you know him too?" Zhang Zhengdao was surprised by Wang Ke.
"Monk Jie Se! The Blood Temple’s expatriate! Monk Jie Se, the one who guards the Demon Suppressing Temple! Damn, I thought you didn’t kill… What do you mean by this massacre?" Wang Ke was flabbergasted.
"Monk Jie Se? Monk? Stop joking around! The person is a big demonic boss!" Zhang Zhengdao said in shock.
"You know him?" Wang Ke asked curiously.
"Of course! I took a peek and saw him while tomb raiding in the past! He’s Se Yutian! The demonic sect’s Second Parlor Lord, Se Yutian!" Zhang Zhengdao replied.
"Se Yutian? The one rumored to always kill anyone who’s seen his face? Second Parlor Lord Se Yutian?" Wang Ke was shocked by the news.
"Yeah, who else do you think he is? How could he be a monk? Something must be wrong with your eyes!" Zhang Zhengdao said.
"Nonsense! There’s no way I would mistake him for someone else! If you don’t believe me, you can ask the Snake King; Monk Jie Se gave him a good beating!" Wang Ke said as he looked at the Snake King.
The latter nodded and continued looking at Se Yutian fearfully.
