Be the Hardest Working Demon Cultivator!

Because at this moment, he simply could not exert the strength of the 'Three Certificates'.

In addition, there was the aftermath of using the Buddha's true blood, which could erupt at any moment, leaving him completely devoid of the will to fight.

After all, if he were to use divine skills, he would inevitably trigger the 'Star Fate Divine Skill'.

And without using divine skills, relying solely on the power of his physical body, he was completely unable to contend with Tan Shuchang. A single punch had made it clear to him that the strength of Tan Shuchang's physical body might even surpass his own, which had been enhanced by the activation of the Buddha's true blood.

So, if not now, when would he flee?

As for the young Daoist priest, he had already fled a step ahead when the Ancestor of Guan He Xi Tuo Mountain made his move.

After all, where there are green hills, one needn't worry about firewood.

Moreover, he had helped the Ancestor of Western Tuo Mountain earlier to buy time to activate the Buddha's true blood, so it was only right and reasonable for the Ancestor of Western Tuo Mountain to help him buy time to escape now.

At this moment, the Ancestor of Guan He Xi Tuo Mountain, who was crossing through the void, suddenly saw a crimson redness engulfing heaven and earth.

Looking around, all he saw was a world of blood, as if he had arrived at a blood sea.

The rolling blood waves, surging and tumultuous.

And the young Daoist priest, who had fled earlier, suddenly fell out of the void, only to be slapped into the waters by a blood wave.

This was him being dragged back by Tan Shuchang's blood shadow incarnation and the "Blood God".

Because this Venerable of the Upper Pure View did not know the extent of Tan Shuchang's 'Star Fate Divine Skill', he dared not go all out against Tan Shuchang's blood shadow incarnation, resulting in a moment of carelessness being suppressed under the "Blood God"'s human wave tactics.

At this time, the young Daoist priest and the monk encountered each other in this blood pool, yet there was not a hint of joy on their faces.

It was clear that those who pursue cultivation were often cold and detached by nature.

Yet just as Tan Shuchang was lamenting the loss of ancient simplicity in people's hearts, the young Daoist priest and the monk both showed expressions of utter despair and horror, and then they called out a name that Tan Shuchang had heard more than once by mistake.

"Secluded Spring Blood Demon!"

As those words fell, the two Three-Certificate cultivators simultaneously descended into great turmoil of mind and spirit, flailing around like headless flies, unable to break free from the blood waves that Tan Shuchang was controlling with his will.

Seeing this scene, Tan Shuchang, amidst his surprise, couldn't help but praise internally—what an impressively formidable Secluded Spring Blood Demon.

Without showing its face, just the sight of this blood sea could cause the formidable Three-Certificate Ascenders to lose seventy to eighty percent of their combat strength and have no desire to continue the fight.

Such demonic might was truly terrifying to the extreme!

Right away, Tan Shuchang decided to impersonate it a few more times in the future.

After all, it would be a pity not to make use of such an effective tactic for psychological warfare.

After dealing with five troublesome ancestors, Tan Shuchang began trying to refine the Ancestor of Western Tuo Mountain. However, after several refining methods, all failed without effect.

"Truly resilient..."

Tan Shuchang's gaze flickered slightly.

Now, as the Buddha's true blood within the body of the Ancestor of Western Tuo Mountain began to fade, Tan Shuchang's own unique hunger also instantly ceased.

Therefore, Tan Shuchang turned his attention to the three Ancestors of Sword Disciple Mountain.

Although the Venerable of Upper Pure View and the Ancestor of Western Tuo Mountain were greatly disturbed, sensing the Corrosive Force of the blood pool, they both instinctively sealed off their five senses and six consciousnesses, plunging themselves into a curious state of deathly stillness.

Just like the previous Qian Sect Leader, this left Tan Shuchang momentarily at a loss, as it was the opponents' Immortal Sect support that was protecting them.

However, the three Ancestors of Sword Disciple Mountain, because they were severely injured and hadn't recovered, could only barely resist the Corrosive Force of the blood pool at this moment.

Yet these three, just like the other two, all thought that this was the Blood Spring of Secluded Spring Blood Demon.

In their great mental turmoil, they dared not let this blood touch even a bit of themselves!

Seeing this golden opportunity, Tan Shuchang immediately raised his hand and pointed. Suddenly, strands of Bloody Sword Qi emerged, aiming to take the lives of these three people.

However, Tan Shuchang had miscalculated.

These strands of Bloody Sword Qi couldn't even get close to the three of them.

The swordsmanship realms of these three people caused the Calamity Witnessing Sword Qi to lose control of themselves as they approached. It was only because these sword qi contained the murderous rules of ferocious ghosts that Tan Shuchang was not bitten back by them.

"Sword Heart Universe..."

Tan Shuchang recognized it.

And experiencing this swordmanship realm for the first time from the perspective of an adversary, Tan Shuchang also got a taste of the domineering nature of the Sword Heart Universe.

Everything related to swords seemed to fall under the jurisdiction of this Sword Heart Universe!

You must know that this Calamity Witnessing Sword Qi was bolstered by Tan Shuchang's five hundred years of cultivation!

Therefore, Tan Shuchang did not continue to attempt to kill the opponent for fear that the opponent's Immortal Dao would materialize and come to their aid.

If that happened, he truly wouldn't be able to kill them.

That's the reason the leader of the Qian sect is like a turtle in its shell.

Then, Tan Shuchang stepped out of the Blood Pool and used his cloud-riding technique to make his way to Heavenly Sword Mansion. He needed to find someone to help suppress the Sword Heart Universe realms of these three individuals.

Upon arriving at Heavenly Sword Mansion, Tan Shuchang discovered that it was exceptionally bustling.

Not only were there people from Heavenly Sword Mansion, but also from other Immortal Sects.

Originally, the atmosphere in Heavenly Sword Mansion was on edge, but with Tan Shuchang's arrival, it instantly dissolved into a chorus of "We have seen the Demon Lord."

The voices boomed, uniform as one.

"Is it because of those five that you wish to expel Heavenly Sword Mansion from the ranks of the top Immortal Sects? However, in my opinion, it would be best to maintain the original number of top Immortal Sects. What do you all think?" Tan Shuchang glanced and immediately understood the situation. Those who had come to Heavenly Sword Mansion were from Sword Disciple Mountain, Guan He Xi Tuo Mountain, and others.

Clearly, these three factions were commanded by their ancestors to come here and carve up Heavenly Sword Mansion. Of course, there might be other motives, but these were beyond Tan Shuchang's current understanding.

"Demon Lord, our presence here is not of our own volition, but by the command of our ancestors, which we truly cannot defy. We are willing to follow the Demon Lord's will!" The leader from Guan He Xi Tuo Mountain naturally was the head of their sect.

As this head spoke, he inadvertently glanced in the direction where the cultivator from Sword Disciple Mountain was.

For at this moment, the one leading the Sword Disciple Mountain was not Nan Jian's Su Huan'an, but a young cultivator. Tan Shuchang was familiar with this person—it was none other than Long Zhangyuan, the Son of the Heavenly Mandate.

"Demon Lord, the same is true for this humble monk, which is why we came to Heavenly Sword Mansion. And ever since we arrived at Heavenly Sword Mansion, the disciples from Western Tuo Mountain have always been at the back, never making the first move, just like the disciples from Guan He Xi Tuo Mountain," stated the head of Western Tuo Mountain, hurrying to make his position clear because he was present when his ancestor sought out Tan Shuchang to discuss Buddha's teachings.

Therefore, with Tan Shuchang's appearance and the lack of news from his ancestor, the outcome was self-evident.

This revelation caused the head of Western Tuo Mountain to feel terrified and could not help but develop a sense of awe towards Tan Shuchang.

"So, the only ones who made a move were from Sword Disciple Mountain?" Tan Shuchang saw the disarray within Heavenly Sword Mansion upon his arrival.

"Tan Shuchang!"

Faced with Tan Shuchang, who had silenced the entire place in an instant, Long Zhangyuan stepped forward.

He had not saluted Tan Shuchang just now.

Thus, under the stimulation of the devil seed, Long Zhangyuan's negative emotions completely overwhelmed his ability to think.

Then, Long Zhangyuan drew the broken Immortal Sword he had gotten from the sword tower, which had by now been fully repaired.

Pointing the restored sword tip at Tan Shuchang, Long Zhangyuan suddenly felt a surge of spirit, as if a trapped dragon had ascended to heaven.

"You really have quite the nerve! Don't you know your death is imminent?" Long Zhangyuan laughed. Even though he was the Son of the Heavenly Mandate, the three ascended ancestors of Sword Disciple Mountain would not specifically inform him of their visit to Tan Shuchang.

So, Long Zhangyuan, unaware that the three ancestors had already sought out Tan Shuchang, still thought he had the support of three Ascenders!

"So it's Long Dao friend! Well then, let me hasten you on your way." Tan Shuchang couldn't be bothered to speak further to the Son of the Heavenly Mandate. The last time he visited Sword Disciple Mountain, he didn't kill the Son of the Heavenly Mandate simply because he was engrossed in reading and had forgotten.

Now, Tan Shuchang certainly wouldn't forget.

With a slight flick of his sleeve, a flash of Bloody Sword Qi whizzed by, and the Son of the Heavenly Mandate, previously full of pride, had his head severed and rolling on the ground.

As the heavenly favor dissipated, Tan Shuchang's intent to kill met no resistance.
