Chapter 235: Chapter 221: I Got (Beaten) for Ning Zhuo (Please Vote)_2
“Crap!” Ning Zhuo muttered to himself, sensing danger, just as he was about to cast a spell to break free.
At that moment, a sudden change occurred.
The Blood Tendon Shackles imposed on Yuan Dasheng lasted only a brief moment before transforming back into a stream of Blood Qi, which was then absorbed by an invisible force into Yuan Dasheng’s body.
To be precise, it was absorbed into the Blood Path Diagram Plate inside Yuan Dasheng’s body.
In an instant, Ning Zhuo understood!
“I get it, this is the correct way to clear the trial!”
“The Blood Path Diagram Plate is used this way!”
When the Blood Path Diagram Plate possessed Blood Qi, it allowed the mechanisms to perform the corresponding levels of the Demon-infused Bloodline Technique.
When the Blood Path Diagram Plate lacked Blood Qi, it could directly absorb any external Demon-infused Bloodline Qi it encountered!
These Demon Blood Puppets, intending to imprison Yuan Dasheng, ended up delivering a grand gift instead.
Yuan Dasheng had previously struggled with a lack of Blood Qi, but now, with this substantial gift, his battle power skyrocketed.
He let out a low roar, his arms shook, and surging Blood Qi formed a blood-colored orb that rapidly expanded around him.
The layers of Mechanical Puppets pressing down on him were all blasted away, colliding into each other before crashing to the ground.
Many of the Mechanical Puppets couldn’t withstand the intense Blood Qi shock and disintegrated mid-air.
Yuan Dasheng roared, clenched his fists like two war hammers, and swung them like the wind. Charging forward, unstoppable, empowered by Blood Qi, no Mechanical Puppet could stand against him.
A large number of Demon Blood Puppets shattered and disintegrated under his blows.
However, the good times did not last long; Yuan Dasheng’s battle power gradually weakened.
There were too many enemies.
Yuan Dasheng’s attacks were continuously consuming Blood Qi intensely. With insufficient Blood Qi, his battle power significantly decreased!
Enemies were everywhere, coming incessantly, one after another.
Ning Zhuo shouted a reminder for Yuan Dasheng to keep absorbing Blood Qi.
Yuan Dasheng followed the command, reached out, and grabbed a head.
He activated the Blood Path Diagram Plate, which exploded with powerful suction, causing the Kung Fu Doll in his grasp to tremble.
This way, a stream of Blood Qi was absorbed from the Kung Fu Doll through its head, up his arm, and eventually into Yuan Dasheng’s Blood Path Diagram Plate.
The Kung Fu Doll, without the support of Blood Qi, immediately became feeble and extremely weak.
Bang.
Yuan Dasheng applied force with both hands, directly crushing the Kung Fu Doll’s head.
Much of his attack prowess was evident in his hands!
Yuan Dasheng continued to grab and crush, absorbing the Blood Qi from the Kung Fu Dolls, and then crushing each one.
Although there were many Demon Blood Puppets, they lacked spiritual wisdom and had no targeted countermeasure against Yuan Dasheng’s actions.
On the other hand, Yuan Dasheng had reached the Spiritual Wisdom Phase. At this moment, he learned from the battle and began focusing on Blood Qi reserves.
He preferred to take hits in order to absorb all the Blood Qi from the Demon Blood Puppets, into his Blood Path Diagram Plate.
The more Blood Qi Yuan Dasheng absorbed, the stronger he became. The stronger he became, the more Blood Qi he could absorb…
With this positive cycle, Yuan Dasheng steadied himself and gradually became unstoppable.
Ning Zhuo, seeing this scene, felt gratified but also puzzled.
“Having found the right way to clear the trial, the second level of the Demon Sect Path becomes very simple. The true difficulty is much less than that of the Buddhist Sect Path.”
“Something doesn’t add up.”
Ning Zhuo fell into deep thought.
Soon, an idea flashed in his mind, and he thought of a possibility.
He personally experimented in battle, actively selecting Demon Blood Puppets as opponents, and through repeated trials, he gained an in-depth understanding of the mechanism of the trial.
It turned out that the absorbing capability of the Blood Path Diagram Plate had a limit.
Like the Blood Path Diagram Plate that Ning Zhuo possessed, it was inscribed with the eight layers of the Demon-infused Bloodline Technique, and could only absorb the Demon-infused Bloodline Qi of up to the eighth layer of Qi Refinement.
Anything higher, like the ninth layer of Blood Tendons, was out of reach.
In fact, absorbing even the eighth-layer Blood Tendons proved to be quite challenging.
“The trial designed by the Three Ancestral Masters was intended to focus the cultivators on the application of the Blood Path Diagram Plate.”
“During the early stage of the trial, cultivators should use mobile warfare to delay time, extend the battle, and choose puppets with lower cultivation levels to absorb their Blood Qi.”
“In the mid-stage, using the absorbed Blood Qi to enhance one’s battle power, all the while fighting and absorbing Blood Qi from combat.”
“In the late stage, dealing with the tough opponents, through intense fighting, ultimately killing a path through the blood and passing the trial!”
Spells couldn’t be used.
Once used, they would trigger a large number of Kung Fu Dolls to use Blood Tendons, greatly enhancing their battle power.
This not only increased the pressure on trialing cultivators but also drastically reduced the Blood Qi they could gain.
“So, the difficulty of this trial is related to the Blood Path Diagram Plate.”
“A Blood Path Diagram Plate with nine layers of Demonic Technique has the lowest difficulty. The lower the number of layers, the greater the difficulty!”
“However…”
“I have Yuan Dasheng. When refining him, I used the True Scripture of the Demon-infused Bloodline Technique. As a result, he refined a Blood Path Diagram Plate of the Foundation Establishment Stage in the previous trial.”
“This diagram plate, in the second trial, subjugates all Demon Blood Puppets, making it the ultimate weapon!”
This was the main reason Ning Zhuo found the trial so undemanding.
In one word, it was because he cheated again.
The trial designed by the Three Ancestral Masters was meant for cultivators in the Qi Refinement Realm.
Normal cultivators in the Qi Cultivation Stage would only obtain a Qi Refinement Realm-level Demon-infused Bloodline Technique and would not have the ability to craft a Foundation Establishment Stage-level Blood Path Diagram Plate.
The existence of Yuan Dasheng surpassed the design limits of the trial.
With Yuan Dasheng’s prowess, Ning Zhuo smoothly cleared the second level.
Seeing that Ning Zhuo clearly intended to continue to the final level with Yuan Dasheng, the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit felt extremely anxious.
“Oh dear, oh dear!”
“This cannot be done. You can’t take the Golden Blooded War Ape – Dasheng in there; it will easily get trapped and may never come back.”
The Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit knew the mechanism of the final trial and felt immense worry for Ning Zhuo.
If Ning Zhuo indeed took Yuan Dasheng in, the losses would be significant, and rescuing Yuan Dasheng would be an arduous task.
On any regular day, the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit would have hoped for Ning Zhuo to make such a mistake.
The Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit longed to see Ning Zhuo take a fall for once. But now, if Ning Zhuo got into trouble, his strength diminished, who would it then find to deal with Ning Xiaohui?
Ning Xiaohui, with her cultivation only in the Qi Refinement Realm, would surely be eliminated by the Golden Blooded War Ape – Dasheng.
The Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit knew how capable the Golden Blooded War Ape – Dasheng was and thus didn’t want to lose such a valuable weapon.
At the same time, it was very concerned that Ning Zhuo might act irrationally. Once the Golden Blooded War Ape – Dasheng was trapped in the final trial, Ning Zhuo might waste too much time and energy attempting to clear the final trial to rescue it!
“Young master, master.” Seeing Ning Zhuo about to push the door open, the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit, left with no choice, reached out again to stop him.
“Stop, please stop. Don’t be in such a hurry to step through the door,” the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit advised.
Then, in the next moment, a flaming whip materialized above its head.
Snap.
With a crisp sound, the whip lashed onto the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit.
The Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit: …
It never expected that there would be a day when it got punished for advising Ning Zhuo!
It never imagined it would be whipped for Ning Zhuo’s sake!
Where was the justice in this?
