No one had expected that in this Ancient Tower, not only was there no legacy of the Venerable Lan Yue, but they also encountered the Venerable Lan Yue himself, who had disappeared a millennium ago.

What shocked them most was that this Venerable Lan Yue actually intended to use their blood and flesh as the energy for his resurrection.

It should be known that the Venerable Lan Yue was the number one expert in the Eastern Domain a thousand years ago, with extremely terrifying strength.

Even though Venerable Lan Yue could no longer be considered truly alive, and his strength could not compare to the past, they still had no courage to confront him.

At this moment, even Nangong Han, Dongfang Qiong, Ximen Yao, and Bai Yinyin, these four individuals with First Layer Cultivation at the Essence Pill Realm, all had expressions of horror.

They finally realized that all of this was Venerable Lan Yue's trap.

Venerable Lan Yue deliberately opened these Ancient Ruins and lured them here to obtain enough blood and flesh as the energy for his resurrection.

Then, he used various treasure resources to tempt them into killing each other

And finally, he unleashed those blood-colored demon beasts to continually attack and kill them.

Originally, nearly one hundred thousand people entered these Ancient Ruins, but now only these few hundred remain.

This means that the flesh and blood of those other people were all transformed into the energy required for Venerable Lan Yue's resurrection.

"I was wondering before why those treasure resources were casually placed everywhere. It turns out it was all a trap set by the senior to make us slaughter each other."

Nangong Han said with an extremely unpleasant expression.

Everyone's expressions were similarly ugly at this moment.

Although they had their suspicions before, the treasure resources they were fighting for were mostly Earth Tier, and many of them were even of Upper Grade Earth Tier, yet they were all placed so casually and prominently. But they never expected it to be a trap from Venerable Lan Yue to lure them into mutual slaughter.

"This can only be blamed on your greed."

Venerable Lan Yue smiled indifferently and said, "Isn't it also greed that brought you here?"

Hearing Venerable Lan Yue's words, everyone paused, unable to refute.

Or rather, they couldn't refute at all because Venerable Lan Yue wasn't wrong. They were indeed driven by greed, wanting to obtain more and better treasures, or even the legacy of Venerable Lan Yue, thus stepping into this Ancient Tower.

"Senior, since you've now resurrected, can't you let us go?"

At this time, Dongfang Qiong slightly cupped his hands toward Venerable Lan Yue and spoke.

"Although I have now resurrected, a millennium has passed, and there is now only myself left in the Blue Moon Manor. So to restore the former glory of my Blue Moon Manor, I intend to take you all in as disciples."

Venerable Lan Yue's gaze swept over the crowd, slowly saying, "Are you willing to become my disciples and join my Blue Moon Manor?"

Upon hearing Venerable Lan Yue's words, everyone fell silent.

It's not that they were unwilling to become his disciples, but they really couldn't be sure if this was another trap by Venerable Lan Yue.

However, Nangong Han and the other three had no interest in becoming Venerable Lan Yue's disciples.

They were all top geniuses from the Great Yu Imperial Dynasty, with extraordinarily powerful backgrounds. Some of their elders even existed at the Qi Condensation Realm.

Not to mention that the current Venerable Lan Yue's strength was not what it once was, even at his peak, Venerable Lan Yue didn't have the qualification to take them as disciples.

As for Wang Ruoxie, he never believed there was anyone in today's Yuanwu Continent capable of being his master, nor anyone with the right to take him as a disciple.

Most importantly, he understood very well that Venerable Lan Yue didn't truly want them as disciples, but was calculating everyone.

Moreover, he could tell that the other party was not truly resurrected but was in a state of neither life nor death.

Or rather, for Venerable Lan Yue to be truly resurrected, he still needed more blood and flesh.

If that's truly the case, then they might still have a sliver of hope.

Thinking of this, Wang Ruoxie turned his eyes and said to Nangong Han and the other three, "He probably hasn't truly resurrected yet, and the reason he's talking to us is merely to buy time."

"We must take advantage of the fact that he can't act against us now and kill him quickly. Otherwise, once he fully revives and regains his strength, we'll all die."

Although there were hundreds present, only Nangong Han, Dongfang Qiong, Ximen Yao, and Bai Yinyin, with their First Layer Cultivation at the Essence Pill Realm, had the qualifications to team up with him against Venerable Lan Yue.

Even if he wasn't mistaken and Venerable Lan Yue hadn't truly resurrected, his current strength was at least equivalent to the Fourth Layer Cultivation at the Essence Pill Realm, possibly even stronger.

Moreover, even with the combined forces of him and the four others, there was no great confidence in overcoming him.

As for those with Meridian Passage Cultivation, no matter how many there were, it was entirely meaningless.

"How can you be so sure that I haven't truly resurrected and am unable to take action against you now?"

Hearing Wang Ruoxie's words, a cold glint flashed in Venerable Lan Yue's eyes as he spoke.

"Because I know the powerful Secret Technique you mentioned is that Blood Refining Evil Technique."

Wang Ruoxie looked at Venerable Lan Yue and spoke again: "Moreover, I also know that although you have set up the Blood Refining Array using the Blood Refining Evil Technique, transforming countless creatures' blood and flesh into this Pool of Myriad Bloods to reverse life and death, you are unable to fully integrate the essence, energy, and spirit contained within those blood and flesh, so you haven't truly resurrected."

"Besides, if you could act now, why would you waste words with us? You would have killed us long ago and integrated our blood and flesh into the Pool of Myriad Bloods."

As Wang Ruoxie's voice fell, everyone's eyes lit up. Wang Ruoxie's words indeed made a lot of sense.

"Who exactly are you to know about the Blood Refining Evil Technique?"

Venerable Lan Yue's expression changed as he looked at Wang Ruoxie in disbelief.

He had believed that he was the only one in the world who knew about the Blood Refining Evil Technique, never expecting there to be a second person who did, and that the other party seemed to understand it profoundly.

What Venerable Lan Yue didn't know was that in a past life, Wang Ruoxie incarnated as a Blood Demon, and countless beings had been consumed by him.

To Wang Ruoxie in the past, the mere Blood Refining Evil Technique was nothing.

Moreover, when it came to understanding blood and flesh, Venerable Lan Yue didn't even qualify to be mentioned in the same breath as Wang Ruoxie.

"If you don't want to die, then act with me."

Wang Ruoxie ignored Venerable Lan Yue's question and spoke to Nangong Han and the other three.

"Alright, let's work together to kill him."

Nangong Han pondered for a moment, then nodded.

"Not just the few of us; everyone must act together."

Dongfang Qiong also spoke.

"Indeed, if everyone acts together, even though he was once the number one expert in the Eastern Domain, he's nothing more than a living corpse now, so we have nothing to fear."

Everyone nodded in agreement upon hearing this.

Immediately, without hesitation, everyone charged at Venerable Lan Yue almost simultaneously.

"Ah..."

However, the next scene was extremely tragic.
