Chapter 1089: Blood Tasting Festival

The God of War Heaven Blasting Cannon sounded like an extremely bad*ss spell technique.

An Lin felt that it would be best to obtain it as soon as possible.

In order to avoid attracting Emperor Yi Deng’s attention, An Lin chose to conceal his identity.

In any case, he only needed the supreme beings to abhor him as a person. It wasn’t necessary for them to know his identity. The only constraint was that he needed to meet them in person. Anyhow, this mission was extremely flexible.

An Lin left Tina and Da Bai at Ling Can City as a precautionary measure. Then, he set off excitedly to search for supreme beings to infuriate…

…

Xu Xiaolan had wanted to tag along with An Lin. She had heard about An Lin’s misfortune, and she felt that she was partially responsible for it. Thus, she had volunteered to go with him.

“Xiaolan, I think it’s best that you don’t go. It’s too dangerous,” An Lin said.

“Say that when your defenses are stronger than mine.” Xu Xiaolan patted her turtle-shell armor and raised her proud chin.

An Lin: “…”

He had never expected his defenses to be questioned.

“Fine, then let’s go and fight the Blood Tribe together. Make sure not to get too ahead of yourself,” An Lin reminded.

“You don’t get too ahead of yourself!” Xu Xiaolan retorted.

“For the sake of safety, we’ll only target supreme beings of the Return to Void Initial Stage,” she added. “This way, it’ll also be easier to flee.”

“My thoughts exactly.” An Lin nodded in agreement.

Right now, he wasn’t heading over to slay Blood Tribe cultivators. He was merely heading over to complete his system mission. After completing it, he would flee instantly. He definitely wouldn’t get too ahead of himself.

“According to the information that I’ve gathered, the closest Return to Void Stage cultivator is located in the territory of the Bone Demon Blood Sect. Balck, the ancestor of the Bone Demon Blood Sect, appears to be a supreme being of the Return to Void Initial Stage.”

Before she set off, Xu Xiaolan had obtained a map of the Blood Tribe’s territory from the executive department of the Heavenly Court.

“Good, it’s him then!” Apart from super mighty figures of the Dao Integration Stage, An Lin had never been afraid of anyone. He had always picked his opponents casually.

The two of them sped along toward a westerly direction.

…

Right now, night had set in, and the luminous moon was hanging in the sky.

On a bone-strewn land.

Blood-red vegetation danced with the wind, and drops of undried sap dripped down from time to time.

All kinds of pitch-black-colored creatures lived here, and they looked like masses of squirming black shadows. Most of them had sharp mouthparts and liked to feed off various types of blood and life essence.

Within some gigantic skeleton, there were countless blood-sucking insects eating away at the skeleton’s bone marrow.

The Dark Marshlands had a natural corrosive ability, and the creatures here all had extremely thick skin as a result of this. Moreover, their bodies were all dull in color. Their appearances were a far cry from what one would regard as beautiful.

Atop a mountain that was covered in bright red and flesh-like plants.

A ginormous Bone Demon skull rested on the mountaintop. It looked extremely uncanny, and it appeared as though the mountain had a skull for a “head”.

This place was none other than the territory of the Bone Demon Blood Sect.

It was night-time, and the Bone Demon Blood Sect was currently holding a Blood Feast.

Night-time was the time when the Blood Tribe cultivators lost themselves in ecstasy.

Two figures streaked through the sky, yet not a single shred of wind was created by their movements.

An Lin had used his extremely powerful divine sense to conceal himself.

Meanwhile, Xu Xiaolan had worn the Illusionary Star Robe that An Lin had gifted her. It was as if her slender body carried with it the luminesce of stars, where she became one with the galaxies in the sky.

This Illusionary Star Robe melted into the surroundings, thus it could greatly conceal the wearer’s aura and presence.

An Lin felt that even if there were supreme beings of the Return to Void Final Stage amid the enemy, they still wouldn’t be able to detect them.

Within the Bone Demon Skull.

A fiery-red carpet covered an especially spacious hall. There was a lotus-like chandelier hanging in the center of the hall, and the dazzling golden glow that it emitted flooded throughout the entire hall.

The hall was luxuriously decorated.

Countless Blood Tribe cultivators were gathered here. They were either dancing with partners, or they were clinking glasses and celebrating with fellow cultivators.

Starbucks, the young sect leader, spiritedly raised his glass of blood wine.

“This is our Bone Demon Blood Sect’s eighty-second Blood Tasting Festival. Esteemed members of the Red Snow Sect, Heavenly Scorpion Sect, and the remaining thirty-two sects, thank you all for attending and celebrating this festival!

“Hehe… The main event of this festival, the blood auction, will begin in two hours. I hope that you all enjoy yourselves!” After saying this, Starbucks downed the glass of blood wine in his hands.

The Blood Tribe cultivators in the hall cheered in approval, and they also downed the glasses of blood wine in their hands.

Starbucks walked off the stage.

At this moment, a golden-eyed male who was hidden in a black robe, which obscured his entire face, had already walked over. “My disciple, make sure to improve your relations with the sect leaders of the Red Snow Sect and the Heavenly Scorpion Sect,” he said in a hoarse voice. “Especially the sect leader of the Red Snow Sect. That’s a sect that has connections to the newly chosen Holy Disciples…”

Starbucks smiled and nodded. “Don’t worry, Master. I’ll definitely handle these matters well.”

The person standing in front of him was none other than the ancient ancestor of the Bone Demon Blood Sect, the Return to Void Initial Stage cultivator—Lord Balck!

“Heh, what are you two talking about. I sneezed just then. I suppose that… you two weren’t talking about me just then, were you?” A beautiful blonde-haired female who was dressed in a red robe slowly walked over. There was an enchanting look on her face.

She was none other than the sect leader of the Red Snow Sect—Eliza.

Starbucks’ expression didn’t change, and he retrieved a small cup of red wine from his storage ring. He walked toward the female and smiled. “Sect Leader Eliza’s beauty is unparalleled in the nine territories of the southeast. Master and I naturally couldn’t help but praise your otherworldly beauty.”

Eliza accepted the red wine and smiled seductively. “Don’t you feel embarrassed praising me like that?”

She gazed at Starbucks as she took a small sip of the red wine. Her seductive red lips became even more alluring after being moisturized by the red wine.

“In fact… it’s really easy to improve the relationship between us,” Eliza said tenderly.

An awkward expression fell across Starbucks’ face. He didn’t expect his conversation to be overheard by Eliza.

“As long as you give me the item that you’re auctioning, the relationship between us will become very secure… In fact, I can even accompany you for the night and have you experience unimaginable euphoria…”

As she said this, Eliza’s loose-fitting red robe slid down imperceptibly and revealed her delicate shoulders, as well as a significant portion of her voluptuous breasts. They rose and fell seductively with her every breath.

If ordinary people saw such an arousing spectacle, they would most likely get a massive nosebleed.

Even Starbucks was momentarily dazed, and his heartbeat involuntarily quickened.

At this moment, the black-robed male appeared by Starbucks’ side. “Sect Leader Eliza, we only have one of that item,” he said calmly. “Several large sects have also come for that item. In order to maintain our sect’s reputation, we can’t go back on our words. I hope that you understand.”

Eliza humphed softly upon seeing this male who had suddenly appeared. Then, she turned around and left.

Balck’s appearance signified that she wouldn’t be able to coax Starbucks anymore.

The frenzied festive celebrations continued, and the long-awaited auction was almost about to begin.

In a hidden corner, An Lin and Xu Xiaolan were quietly observing the cultivators in the hall. They couldn’t help but feel a sense of elation.

“Gold, we’ve really struck gold this time!” An Lin exclaimed enthusiastically.

He discovered that there were four Return to Void Stage cultivators here!
