Chapter 315: Do You Crave Power?
by AshPurgatory2025In the blink of an eye, Lin Xun found that he had vanished from his original spot.
By the time Lin Xun regained his senses, he realized he had arrived at a grotto-heaven.
Blood-red stone pillars stood tall within, and obscure inscriptions covered the entire stone wall, which also seemed to be engraved with some kind of Formation.
It seemed to be documenting some kind of ritual.
Continuing forward, deep within the stone chamber, stood stone statues of Demonic Beasts.
However, though they were called Demonic Beasts, they were all clad in armor and holding weapons, clearly belonging to a race with intelligence and civilization.
As Lin Xun kept walking forward, he constantly felt as if these Demonic Beasts were watching him, as if they were all alive.
Reaching the very front, at the end of the stone chamber, there was a long saber covered in blood-colored inscriptions.
The long saber was thrust straight into a rock.
The long saber was blood-red all over, emitting a bloody and ominous aura that made Lin Xun feel slightly uncomfortable.
This place should be some ruins, perhaps the tomb of a strange race, or maybe a place of Seal.
In any case, even if it was truly as those three Cultivators said, that the Black Flood Dragon was recuperating here,
then this place was definitely not built by that Nascent Soul Realm Black Flood Dragon.
That Black Flood Dragon being able to find this place must have been some kind of coincidence or Opportunity.
Even the fact that the Black Flood Dragon reached the Nascent Soul Realm might be due to some Opportunity it obtained within this Immortal Cave.
And so, this Black Flood Dragon simply used this Immortal Cave as its camp.
That was strange then.
What exactly existed in the Rootless Secret Realm back then, and why was this Immortal Cave built in the first place?
Where is the owner of this Immortal Cave now?
*Buzz*
Just as Lin Xun was pondering, the great saber thrust into the rock emitted a dense blood-red Qi.
The blood-red Qi was like a barrier, quickly surrounding Lin Xun.
“Do you crave power?”
A voice full of demonic nature entered Lin Xun’s Sea of Consciousness, attempting to bewitch, guide, and control Lin Xun’s consciousness.
“I know! I understand you! No one understands you better than I do! You crave power! So! Pick me up!”
That demonic voice continued.
“Pick me up! And I shall give you endless power!”
*Clang!*
Within Lin Xun’s Sea of Consciousness, the demon spear an sha was already beyond furious. She desperately wanted to come out from between Lin Xun’s brows and poke a few holes in this piece of trash Blood Saber!
This old lady is truly going to die of anger!
Nowadays, any random sword or saber wants to snatch this old lady’s Master!
Is this old lady inferior to you?
This old lady has existed since the ancient era. Is there any demonic weapon that has existed longer than me?
Over these years, I’ve served as a walking stick for this scumbag, a barbecue rack, and even a clothesline. What the hell do you think you are?! You dare to snatch my man from me?!
The more she thought about it, the angrier she got; the angrier she got, the more she thought about it.
Just as the demon spear an sha was truly about to fly out from Lin Xun’s brows to show her what it meant for “this Big Pig Trotter to be this spear’s sole user,” Lin Xun’s Divine Sense patted the tip of the demon spear, telling her to behave.
The demon spear an sha spun around Lin Xun’s Sea of Consciousness in a rage, but after Lin Xun gently kicked her little butt, she finally settled down.
However, with the spear tip drooping, dark brake looked a bit aggrieved.
“Come! Grasp me! Pull me out! You will be the Prodigy of the future, the Dominator of the world!”
The Blood Saber, completely unaware of this, continued to bewitch Lin Xun.
Lin Xun merely smiled, walked forward, and without the slightest hesitation, grasped the hilt of this Blood Saber.
The moment Lin Xun pulled it out, blood-red Qi surged violently within the stone chamber!
Countless strands of blood-red Qi converged toward Lin Xun’s body!
“Jie jie jie jie jie!!! Become my Saber Slave!”
The Blood Saber’s spirit, having succeeded in its bewitchment, began to corrode Lin Xun’s Sea of Consciousness.
Lin Xun did not stop it in the slightest.
But just as the Blood Saber’s spirit entered Lin Xun’s Sea of Consciousness without hindrance, intending to seize Lin Xun’s vitality and turn him into a walking corpse, the Blood Saber’s spirit froze.
“Huh?”
The Blood Saber’s spirit rubbed its eyes and looked ahead.
Not far away, a dark-skinned girl was standing with her arms crossed, her small foot tapping rhythmically. Her gaze was disdainful and mocking as she looked at him with a cold smirk.
Meanwhile, in other parts of this Immortal Cave, Mo Wenwen and the others had also been separated and brought to different stone chambers.
The scene the three Cultivators from the Daoist Law Sect saw was not much different from what Lin Xun had seen.
They each continued forward within their massive stone chambers and likewise saw treasures within!
A long spear, a one-handed longsword, and a two-handed greatsword!
Every single weapon was surrounded by blood-red Qi.
“Do you crave power?”
When they walked up to the weapons, they also heard that devil-like whisper.
None of them could control themselves, reaching out to pull the weapons from the cracks in the stone!
The moment these blood-covered weapons were grasped in their hands, they let out agonizing screams.
The black eyes of the three Cultivators gradually turned red until they completely lost all light. Their vitality vanished, and they became Puppets.
In comparison, the stone chamber Mo Wenwen arrived at had no strange stone statues or weapons.
Instead, the stone chamber Mo Wenwen was in looked like a bedchamber for resting.
There was a stone table, stone stools, and even a stone bed.
However, atop the stone bed lay a stone coffin.
A few stalks of blood lotuses grew by the bedside, possessing a somewhat peculiar beauty.
Mo Wenwen did not disturb the rest of the deceased in the stone coffin. Instead, she bypassed the coffin and attempted to break open the stone chamber.
But after the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, there was still no progress.
Just as Mo Wenwen took out the Yin and Yang Jade Pendant given by her Master to see if she could forcibly blast the stone chamber open, the chamber door slowly opened!
Turning around, Mo Wenwen saw Shen Xiao and Lin Xun’s group behind him.
However, the moment she saw the four including Lin Xun, Mo Wenwen knew they were all dead. She couldn’t feel the slightest bit of vitality within their bodies!
Even the Ascension Realm Cultivator named “Ri Dangwu” was the same.
Despite the fall of an Ascension Realm Cultivator, Mo Wenwen still felt it was somewhat surreal.
But in the Rootless Secret Realm, even an Ascension Realm could only have the Realm of a Golden Core Realm. If they exceeded the Golden Core Realm, the Cultivator would be rejected and directly expelled from this Secret Realm!
Therefore, even if this “Ri Dangwu” originally had an Ascension Realm, it was not impossible for him to be ambushed and killed while at the Golden Core Realm.
But what exactly happened to make an Ascension Realm Cultivator perish before even having time to break through his suppressed Realm?
How could that be possible?
And why was Senior Brother Shen Xiao perfectly fine?
No!
Something was wrong.
From Shen Xiao’s body, Mo Wenwen felt an endless evil Qi, as if a demon were standing before her.
