Chapter 216 Chang Hong's Jade Blood Repels a Powerful Enemy

With a single thought, dense Bloodwater Blades formed around Yu Qingtan, shooting towards the two figures in red robes who were in pursuit.

She left Jia Siwen where he was, and Yu Qingtan transformed into a Blood Escape Light, closely following the Bloodwater Blades as she closed the distance.

The Blood God Peak appeared, growing larger as Yu Qingtan's spiritual power surged into it.

"Seeking death!"

The voice of the man in a red robe, who had spoken in an affected manner before, now shouted harshly.

As he spoke, the man in the red robe took out a small hammer, which grew in size upon being exposed to the wind until it transformed into a massive hammer over ten zhang in length.

At the same time, a layer of blood-colored armor appeared on his body, and with the massive hammer in hand, he smashed towards Yu Qingtan.

The Bloodwater Blades struck the blood-colored armor but did not harm him in the least, nor did they slow him down for even a moment.

Faced with the massive hammer, Yu Qingtan controlled the Blood God Peak to collide with it.

"Clang~"

They were surprisingly evenly matched.

The man in the red robe seemed taken aback but instantly lifted his massive hammer to continue slamming it down.

Yu Qingtan just managed the Blood God Peak and continued to inject spiritual power into it, rather effortlessly taking the second hammer blow.

As they fought at close quarters, Yu Qingtan still commanded endless Bloodwater Blades to attack the man.

She did not believe his blood-colored armor was completely impervious to attack.

"Not bad in strength, but unfortunately, you've provoked me!" the man in the red robe said after smashing down with the fifth hammer, then he took out a jade blood-colored talisman.

Spiritual power flowed into it, and a golden needle appeared before vanishing.

"A Nascent Soul Charm Treasure!" Yu Qingtan was shocked inwardly as a solid layer of Bloodshield enveloped her, while the Blood God Slaughter of the Blood God Peak also protected her.

But it was to no avail; the golden needle, with extreme speed, maneuvered around the Blood God Peak, effortlessly piercing through the Blood God Slaughter and Bloodshield to stab into Yu Qingtan's head, the golden needle then stained with Yu Qingtan's red blood.

Encased within the Nascent Soul Charm Treasure was a Fourth Stage Dao Technique combining blood and metal elements, the Golden Needle Blood Technique.

Then, Yu Qingtan's figure eerily vanished, leaving behind only a mask and a pile of clothes drifting downwards.

"Qing Tan!" a piercing scream resounded, it was none other than the man in the red robe being pursued.

After Yu Qingtan had made her move, the man in the red robe being pursued stopped in his tracks upon seeing the dense Bloodwater Blades, glanced at Yu Qingtan, and then, without any hesitation, turned around. A blood-colored long mace appeared in his hand, his aura of blood surged, and his strength rapidly climbed, reaching the Late Stage of the Golden Core.

"Die you freak, die!" he said, as he attacked the other pursuer.

The two immediately fought fiercely together.

As it turns out, the pursued man in the red robe was Fang Ling.

He had seen Yu Qingtan use the Water Blade Technique densely before, and since he had nearly no other friends, he guessed that the person who had helped him was Yu Qingtan.

After a fortunate entrance into the ruins of the Blood God Cult, possibly due to the restrictions of the rules, Ancestor Blood Xi was forced into slumber, and he traversed the ruin alone.

Things had been going smoothly at first; he had made significant gains and realized that the third rule was false.

However, upon entering this Great Array, he encountered a tough opponent. He did not want to expend too much to deal with his adversary, but the pursuer relentlessly chased him down. He never expected to encounter Yu Qingtan here, let alone that she would intervene on his behalf, only to fall prey to the enemy herself.

Fang Ling felt a mix of regret and hatred, his eyes nearly splitting with rage as he prepared to desperately finish off his opponent.

Still hovering in mid-air, the Blood God Peak produced a puff of red smoke, which then dissipated, and Yu Qingtan's figure reappeared next to the Blood God Peak, still dressed in red robes, wearing a mask.

"Qing Tan, are you alright?" Fang Ling asked, somewhat dazed, calling out to Yu Qingtan.

Since Fang Ling had recognized her, Yu Qingtan nodded towards him.

"You actually survived, having some kind of life-saving secret technique, but I wonder how many more times you can use it?" The man in the red robe, who was fighting Yu Qingtan, had always found it strange that the Golden Needle Blood Technique didn't cause one to vanish immediately.

Having said that, he injected spiritual power into the Nascent Soul charm treasure, ready to once again use the Golden Needle Blood Technique to cut down Yu Qingtan.

In the next moment, Yu Qingtan felt her thoughts and movements slowing down to an extreme.

Another moment passed, and that sensation returned to normal.

Her pupils then contracted fiercely.

She saw that the jade Nascent Soul charm treasure in the hands of the man opposite her had been broken in two, while a blood sword shot past it towards the distance.

Neither talismans nor charm treasures are particularly sturdy on their own.

Although Fang Ling's Blood Sword Technique couldn't break through the blood-colored armor of the man in the red robe, destroying a Nascent Soul charm treasure was no problem at all.

"Time-based Dao Technique!"

The man in the red robe looked at Fang Ling incredulously.

"But no, Rule Five, wait, could it be that you are using the legendary dual-system Dao Technique of blood and time, Chang Hong's Jade Blood? No, that's also not right, how can you, a Golden Core cultivator, use any Dao Technique, let alone one of this level?"

The man in the red robe said.

However, clearly neither Yu Qingtan nor Fang Ling were the sort who liked to waste words with their opponent, or even introduce their own moves; they seized the opportunity while their adversaries were talking to launch an attack with a forty-zhang-long saber and a giant-sized blood-colored mace respectively against the man in red opposite them.

The man opposite Yu Qingtan blocked the strike with a massive hammer, while the man opposite Fang Ling blocked Fang Ling's blood-colored mace with a rod-shaped magical treasure.

Using the force from the clash of magical treasures, the two men in red retreated, then turned into two streaks of blood escape light, escaping with the Blood Escape Technique.

"Good brother, I'll come play with you again next time~"

The voice of the man in the red robe drifted from far away.

Yu Qingtan and Fang Ling did not choose to pursue. Since their opponents could produce a Nascent Soul charm treasure of that caliber, who knew what other trump cards they had? They were not confident in slaying them.

Under the mask, Yu Qingtan's expression was somewhat peculiar, and Fang Ling was also a bit embarrassed as he approached her.

"Qing Tan, long time no see, I didn't expect to find you here at the ruins of the Blood God Cult."

"Fang Ling, long time no see, I entered by chance as well. Were those two just now outsiders as well?"

"Qing Tan, it wasn't two people, it was one person."

"One person?" Yu Qingtan was somewhat puzzled.

"That was Zhen Dexiu from the Blood Shadow Demon Sect, splitting into two with the Bloodshadow Clone Technique."

Yu Qingtan realized then, the Blood Shadow Demon Sect was an outer Nascent Soul-level force of the Extreme Path Demon Sect, and the Bloodshadow Clone Technique was their signature secret technique.

However, the Bloodshadow Clone Technique was vastly inferior to Yu Qingtan's innate divine power, the Shadow Clone.

Firstly, the Bloodshadow Clone Technique required splitting the soul; secondly, the clone could only stay within the range of the divine sense; thirdly, even though the clone could turn into a blood shadow and return to the main body when killed, it could not be reformed immediately and required a significant amount of time to recover.

Previously, when Yu Qingtan was in the Myriad Beasts Secret Realm, she had an unfortunate encounter with Xue Mei, a cultivator from the Blood Shadow Demon Sect, who met his end on the spot due to a false Escape Talisman.

"What, was that the real Zhen Dexiu?"

At that moment, Jia Siwen, who came by Yu Qingtan's side, exclaimed in shock.

Yu Qingtan looked at him with confusion. Although she felt like teasing the name Zhen Dexiu, she had never heard of him. Was he famous?

"Who might this be?"

Fang Ling eyed Jia Siwen, who stood beside Yu Qingtan, with some hostility, and asked indifferently.

"This is my newly recruited subordinate, Jia Siwen from the Blood Sword Sect. Jia Siwen, this Zhen Dexiu, is he very famous?" Yu Qingtan introduced him and asked Jia Siwen.
