Chapter 686: A Substantial Reward
Translator: StackThatCoin Editor: Hitesh_
Patriarch Yuan Hua and Lu Buwei sat opposite each other in a secret room in the backyard of the Spring and Autumn Trading Center .
The interior of the room was very simple . It had only one cloud bed, two hassocks, and an incense burner shaped like a mountain . The air was filled with a strong fragrance that made people feel warm; but once inhaled, it turned into a cold stream that circulated through the body and freshened one's mind . It had the effects of keeping one's mind sharp and expelling all evils .
There was a faint glow of blood beneath Patriarch Yuan Hua's body . A beam of blood light shot out from the top of his head, forming into a sea of blood thirty feet across right above him . On top of it, three blood lotus flowers that were as large as pots could be seen bobbing around . In the center of the three lotus flowers floated eighteen lotus thrones, but they were all empty .
They were the Dharma Thrones for the Blood-draining Fiends which Patriarch Yuan Hua had formed after he began cultivating the Blood Sea Grand Magic, and there should be a blood fiend formed from the blood essence and souls of hundreds of millions of living beings on every one of them . In those years when Lord Blood Ocean was still in his prime, the weakest of the eighteen Blood-draining Fiends he had formed had the cultivation base of a ninth-tier Primordial Immortal; when the eighteen fiends joined forces, he even dared to break into the Heaven alone and abduct the fairy, who served the Great Celestial Emperor, for fun .
But now, Lord Blood Ocean had only a fragment of his soul left, which had fused with Patriarch Yuan Hua . Although Patriarch Yuan Hua had inherited the complete Blood Sea Grand Magic, he did not know who killed Lord Blood Ocean, neither did he know where the ancient celestial fiend, Lixue Zi, came from, or what the relationship between them was . Naturally, the eighteen Blood-draining Fiends no longer existed, and Patriarch Yuan Hua had to form them all over again on his own .
However, if he were to form them from scratch, it would cost him an astronomical amount of blood essence and souls, as well as a great effort . But, if he could get his hands on eighteen heavenly ghosts with substantial cultivation bases, then make them devour a great deal of the blood essence of their own kind, and finally refine them with the Blood Sea Fiend Flame; transforming them from corporeal form to incorporeal form, he would save himself a great amount of time and effort .
More importantly, Blood-draining Fiends refined from heavenly ghosts would have the ability to travel through the void, and if they were used with Blood Sea Grand Magic, their strength would increase at least a hundredfold . If he could obtain the strongest Undying Heavenly Ghost King in the Ghost Domain and use it to form a blood fiend, the mere thought of the power it could unleash was more than enough to drive Patriarch Yuan Hua crazy .
The sea of blood was rocking violently as the blood lotus flowers bobbed restlessly on it . Concentrating his mind, Patriarch Yuan Hua spoke out the essence of the Blood Sea Grand Magic word by word . Every time he uttered a word, a blood lotus flower the size of a thumb fell from the blood cloud above him, fusing into Lu Buwei's body and turning into a stream of pure energy that circulated inside him, then quickly merged with his immortal soul .
Lu Buwei felt so comfortable as if he was walking on clouds . The blood in his body was getting thicker and thicker, and the energy in it was getting stronger and stronger . Soon, his blood began to flow faster and faster, and his blood vessels began to swell . Blood rushed like dragons in his veins, generating a sound so loud that it rang in the secret room and caused the bronze incense burner to buzz .
Although he had only acquired the fundamental cultivation technique of the Blood Sea Grand Magic, Lu Buwei immediately noticed the enormous benefits involved . On top of that, as Patriarch Yuan Hua was trying to draw Lu Buwei to his side, he used his own Prime Blood Energy to elevate Lu Buwei's cultivation base . Lu Buwei had already formed the heavenly ghost body, and with the aura of the indestructible heavenly ghost body he now possessed, coupled with Patriarch Yuan Hua's help, he felt as if his body was ablaze . Hot air surged around him; an endless amount of strength was generating out of nowhere inside his body . Gradually, he felt a feeling that he was able to crush a star with a punch or flip the ground with a twist of his wrist .
Lu Buwei's cultivation base was not strong to begin with . But, with Patriarch Yuan Hua's help, it was surging at an incredible rate, and did not seem to have a limit . The Blood Sea Grand Magic was an evil and bizarre technique, and it was not limited by anything, including one's understanding of the Dao . For every portion one gained in cultivation base, the sea of blood would double in size; the understanding of the Dao would improve significantly, and the strength would skyrocket . All the energy was stored within the sea of blood, and it was not limited by the body of the person who cultivated it .
When the cultivation of the Blood Sea Grand Magic reached the mastery level, the fleshly body and the sea of blood would fuse into one . At that point in time, one would only have to crazily extract the blood essence and souls of living beings and use them to create a Myriad Beings Blood Pool; then, one would be able to increase the energy at a rapid rate . It was exactly the same as what Patriarch Yuan Hua had done on Myriad Immortals Planet . If one could create a Myriad Beings Blood Pool with the blood essence and souls of trillions of living beings, then use his own sea of blood to completely absorb it, he could step into the realm of Primordial Immortal in just one day!
Patriarch Yuan Hua kept teaching Lu Buwei the various essences of the Blood Sea Grand Magic, and the latter nearly burst into laughter as he absorbed the knowledge like a sponge . He listened attentively to the teachings; when Patriarch Yuan Hua put away the sea of blood and the blood lotus flowers, retracting his energy and uttering not a single word, Lu Buwei wasted no time and jumped off the cloud bed . He then knelt down and bowed reverently to Patriarch Yuan Hua .
"Master, thank you for taking Lu Buwei as your disciple . I'll certainly serve Master with all my heart, and do my very best to make our sect thrive!" Lu Buwei smiled so hard that his eyes narrowed . Patriarch Yuan Hua was clearly a very powerful immortal, and with his support, Lu Buwei's venture in Pangu Continent would be much easier .
