Checking in for 100,000 Years

Chapter 149: Chapter 149: Fourth Level of the Divine Bridge, Hundred Thousand Slaughter

Su Wanyi picked up the storage ring and the sword from the slain youth and stored them away.

She frowned slightly, glancing at the hole beneath the blood-red grass.

The youth, in his panic, had scrambled into the Blood Demons’ nest; he would most likely die in there.

The space was too narrow. If one encountered a Blood Demon, escape would be impossible.

After some thought, Su Wanyi abandoned the idea of pursuing the youth.

She glanced behind her. The number within the blood-red halo at the back of her head had changed; her count was now 138.

”It’s increasing so fast!”

Surprise flickered across Su Wanyi’s exquisite face.

Killing and plundering numbers—it really is a shortcut!

WHOOSH!

She soared into the air, flying forward.

Su Wanyi knew that if everyone had a number behind their head, then cultivators’ enemies wouldn’t just be Blood Demons... but also other cultivators.

To obtain the inheritance, she had to kill even more cultivators to increase her own count.

Thus, in the Slaughter Blood Origin, everyone became dangerous.

Su Wanyi surveyed her surroundings. The grass grew increasingly tall, yet people were extremely scarce.

As far as she could see, not a single person was in sight.

Could they all be hiding? Su Wanyi quietly speculated. She flew low, skimming the tops of the grass, simultaneously attracting Blood Demons and watching out for cultivators hiding in ambush.

She continued onward in this manner.

Su Wanyi indeed attracted many Blood Demons, probably more than 100, but she killed them all.

By consuming the Blood Demons’ inner cores, her cultivation base steadily grew.

Witnessing this, a thoughtful expression flashed in Ye Yun’s eyes.

Inside the Slaughter Blood Origin, killing Blood Demons is secondary. It seems the mastermind’s primary goal is to make Human cultivators kill each other.

Along the way, he had rarely seen the corpses of dead Human cultivators.

The young man Su Wanyi had killed earlier... After she left, numerous tendrils emerged from the red soil. They enveloped the young man’s corpse, rapidly decomposing it and apparently turning it into nutrients.

It seems the mastermind’s cultivation base isn’t high. They can only use the Red Dust Fairyland as a pretense to secretly manipulate Human cultivators into killing each other, all to replenish this world’s energy...

Ye Yun smiled indifferently.

He held no extreme views regarding such despicable acts.

In his eyes as a Divine Monarch, concepts like good and evil were insignificant.

Having ascended to the God Realm, one’s level of existence was entirely different, hence one’s perspective on matters also differed.

It was like cultivators finding the squabbles among mortals uninteresting.

For instance, in the eyes of a cultivator, how could the throne of a small secular kingdom compare to the pursuit of longevity and Cultivation?

Ye Yun did not interfere with Su Wanyi’s trials.

He believed that given enough time, she would undoubtedly come out on top.

Even if she couldn’t... Besides, wouldn’t the Blood Linglong Fairy Hall’s inheritance be his for the taking with a mere thought?

So, Ye Yun wasn’t worried at all.

In fact, his storage contained all sorts of Divine Soldier Techniques. Many were God level or Super God Level, and some even surpassed this world’s Heavenly Dao.

Ye Yun had never brought these items out; even he himself wasn’t sure exactly how many he possessed.

In Ye Yun’s heart, he couldn’t endlessly provide resources, turning the three juniors from the Dragon God Sect into useless ”second generations.”

If he did, the Dragon God Sect would rapidly decline after his departure.

It was best for these three juniors to strive for resources themselves; only then would they truly cherish them.

Before leaving, Ye Yun also planned to set up some safeguards to ensure the Dragon God Sect would endure for at least 100,000 years.

「In the Mystical Space.」

On the square of the Blood-Red Palace.

The red-robed man stood before the Blood Sphere, his expression intensely focused as he watched a point of light moving within it.

The Lady had instructed him that he absolutely must not let anything happen to that girl.

Therefore, he constantly adjusted the Blood Sphere, trying to steer as much potential danger away from the girl as possible.

This Blood Sphere was the control center of the entire Red Dust Fairyland.

He possessed certain permissions, but not all of them.

Did the Lady spare her life because she intends for her to become one of the official Heavenly Chosen Ones? the red-robed man mused, muttering to himself.

The one with the most kills would obtain the complete inheritance of the Red Dust Fairyland.

In reality, however, he would ultimately select ten Heavenly Chosen Ones to walk the Immortal Path leading to the Immortal Palace.

Whoever managed to reach the end of that path would be qualified to enter the Immortal Palace and receive the final inheritance.

As far as he knew, even those two great figures had only obtained a partial inheritance from the Blood Linglong Fairy Hall.

The final inheritance... it had to be inherited by an exceptionally outstanding Human cultivator.

A wisp of Ye Yun’s Primordial Spirit resided in Su Wanyi’s mind. He didn’t probe this world, so he remained unaware of the events unfolding on the square of the Blood-Red Palace.

To him, no matter what variables arose, they were insignificant.

This wisp of his Primordial Spirit was more than enough to handle any crisis.

Even a True God-stage expert would be no match for this wisp of his Primordial Spirit.

Given the Red Dust Fairyland’s current furtive methods, how could there possibly be any True God-stage experts involved?

As Su Wanyi journeyed, she continuously hunted Blood Demons. She also encountered cultivators whose cultivation realms were not significantly different from her own; after a battle, she killed them all.

The number in her blood-red ring steadily increased.

「Three days later.」

The number had already surpassed 3,000.

「Five days later.」

Su Wanyi successfully broke through to the Divine Bridge State’s second level, and the number in her blood ring reached 10,000.

This filled Su Wanyi with exhilaration.

Throughout her journey, she hadn’t encountered anyone with a count exceeding 1,000. Yet, her own blood ring’s count had already reached 10,000. This signified that she had far surpassed many other cultivators.

Too bad there isn’t a leaderboard; I wonder what rank my current count would achieve? Su Wanyi thought with some apprehension.

Time flew by.

「Seven days later.」

Su Wanyi had slain a vast number of Blood Demons and numerous cultivators.

The count in her blood ring reached 30,000, and her cultivation base also advanced to the Divine Bridge Realm’s third level.

The moment many cultivators saw Su Wanyi, their eyes turned red with greed.

They swarmed towards her, desperate to kill her on the spot.

That was a count of 30,000! Whoever killed her would instantly acquire those 30,000 points and skyrocket in standing.

「Half a month later.」

Su Wanyi’s cultivation reached the Divine Bridge Realm’s fourth level, and the count in her blood ring hit 100,000.

By now, she had grown somewhat numb to this number.

I wonder if a count of 100,000 gives me a chance to obtain the inheritance?

Just as this thought crossed her mind, the clouds above suddenly churned, and a dazzling beam of blood-red light descended.

The blood-red light enveloped Su Wanyi, carrying her skyward. In an instant, she vanished.

Simultaneously, nine other individuals from various locations also vanished.
