Chapter 565: 95. Original Divine Blood
Deep within Eternal Night.
Here lies the realm of the Demon Clan, a colossal tree reaching the sky stands at the center of the kingdom as if it were supporting heaven and earth.
At the top of this gigantic tree, a vast palace stands tall, its walls and doors engraved with reliefs of various ancient divine spirits, radiating an ancient and mysterious aura.
"Hmm?"
Suddenly, a light sound reverberated from deep within the palace, "The scent of my Source Blood... has actually come to Eternal Night? Could it be the Seventeenth Prince? Or..."
After a short silence—
"Boom..."
A massive Divine Thought spread out, enveloping the entire Demon Country in an instant.
Then, a Divine Thought Transmission sounded in dozens of places at the same time:
"Hurry over."
The next moment, streaks of light flew from all over the Demon Country, landing before the entrance of the palace.
Leading them was a young woman whose presence transcended heaven and earth, and the others transformed from the lights also mostly possessed Saint Level Cultivation.
Only one mysterious man, wearing a wide-brimmed hat and a veil, had attained the Three Talents Level.
But regardless of their Cultivation, all who stood outside this palace did so with utmost respect,
For this was the territory of the Heavenly Demon Ancestor!
"Void Demon God."
The Heavenly Demon Ancestor's voice arose, "You are best at spatial Teleportation, quickly bring the Demon Saints and Jiu Xiang to the northwest area of the Great Yong Divine Formation."
"Yes."
The Demon God in the form of a young woman immediately responded.
The other mightful beings of the Demon Clan, needing to travel countless miles through Eternal Night to reach the Great Yong Divine Formation, would require some time, even at their fastest, let alone transporting so many others.
But as a Demon God skilled in Void Transfer, even with so many in tow, it would take her less than half an hour at most to arrive.
"Listen well, everyone."
The indifferent voice of the Heavenly Demon Ancestor rose, "Once you enter the Great Yong Divine Formation, follow the commands of the Wind Demon Saint as leader."
Subsequently, the leading red-haired man in a white robe among the Demon Saints responded in a low voice, "May I ask the Ancestor, what task do we have upon entering the Great Yong Divine Formation?"
"Find someone, he carries my Ancestor Blood..."
After the Heavenly Demon Ancestor swiftly relayed the plan through Divine Thought, he continued in a low voice, "Jiu Xiang Demon King, that person might flee into an area within a thousand miles where the Demon Saints cannot tread. Your capability will be crucial then."
The mysterious man wearing the wide-brimmed hat and veil said, "Ancestor, Jiu Xiang also intends to search near the Great Yong Divine Formation for the body of the Divine Beast Dream Snake."
After the Void Demon God left with the others, another streak of light flew up from below, revealing yet another Demon Saint who respectfully said, "Ancestor."
"Immediately contact Huang Yao Demon Saint, who is in charge of the northwest periphery of Great Yong, and use the Great Tiandu Formation to send a suitable Semi-Divine Artifact and the Perception Secret Artifact that can detect my Source Blood, and command him to investigate promptly."
The Heavenly Demon Ancestor quickly transmitted orders.
The Demon Saint, however, slightly furrowed his brow and said, "Ancestor, not long ago, the Great Tiandu Formation under Huang Yao Demon Saint's supervision suffered damage; it can only receive messages from us, but is unable to send information back, nor can it transfer objects."
"Oh? Such coincidence? Or maybe..."
The Heavenly Demon Ancestor's voice fell into contemplation, after a long moment he finally said, "In that case, notify the leaders of the western and northern areas to immediately proceed with a Semi-Divine Artifact and Perception Secret Artifact."
The Demon Saint paused briefly, then nodded in agreement, "Yes."
...
The moment the bottle stopper was removed, the scent of the Demon Clan Ancestor immediately permeated the air.
"Come..."
Lin Yue held the bottle in one hand while the other was poised, vigilant of any movement around him, ready to take action at any moment.
The Original Divine Blood possessed exceptional spirituality and could traverse the Void at will, making it extremely difficult to capture.
Many who reached Saint Level had seen the Original Divine Blood within Eternal Night but failed to capture it.
Lin Yue, although fully prepared with various means to restrict and prevent Void transfer, was not truly confident in his plan.
Judging from the few historical success stories, it seemed to rely heavily on luck.
Even if he managed to restrict the Void and suppress the space, the Original Divine Blood, once caught, might choose self-destruction, dissipating into nothing—an unstoppable event.
So, whether or not he would succeed, no one could say for sure.
Even those who had Proven their path had no assurance of obtaining the Original Divine Blood.
"Hasn't appeared yet?"
After waiting for quite a while without detecting any movement, Lin Yue slightly furrowed his brow.
The information and maps provided by the Second Prince were many years old.
Perhaps... the Original Divine Blood had already left this area?
Lin Yue felt a bit disappointed.
"Wait a bit longer."
Lin Yue resolved himself, "Half an hour, if the Original Divine Blood doesn't show up within half an hour, I can still make it back to Great Yong in time."
Suddenly—
"Hmm?"
At that moment, Lin Yue sensed an odd fluctuation in the Void, and immediately turned his head, noticing a special presence coming from eighty miles away in the Void.
Although faint, it carried an overwhelming pressure that couldn't be ignored.
Lin Yue looked closely and saw it was a drop of pure black liquid.
An utterly pure black, devoid of any impurities—if not for Lin Yue's vision, unaffected by Eternal Night, he might not have seen this drop of black liquid that seemed almost fused with Eternal Night.
"Black?"
Lin Yue was overjoyed, "It's truly the Original Divine Blood!"
However, he neither showed any visible reaction nor made any hasty moves to capture it, and he certainly did not dare to act rashly. He simply stood there with the Jade Bottle containing Ancestor Blood, waiting silently.
