As the words fell, Chu Nan shouted loudly, surrounded by storm and lightning, like a celestial phenomenon descending with the Black and White Guiyuan Sword, suddenly attacking Hai Tianshang.

Hai Tianshang was at the fifth level of the Cloud Sea Realm, and Chu Nan did not dare to be careless.

As soon as he struck, the Blood Dao Cloud Sea erupted simultaneously, with the five elements, four images, light and dark, sword… until the Cloud Sea clone merged into his body.

A sword swept down from the air, causing the heavens and earth to change color, and the sound of the sword's cry reverberated through the heavens and earth!

Seeing this, Hai Tianshang revealed a disdainful smile at the corner of his mouth and said coldly, "I am not Ge Bai, who can be killed by you with one strike."

"Let me show you the true power of the strong from the Desolate Ancient Holy Hall!"

With that, Hai Tianshang took a long breath, and his aura soared instantly. A blood-colored Cloud Sea of four hundred zhang centered on him expanded in an instant, with momentum rising like a volcanic eruption.

In an instant, Hai Tianshang's power reached the peak of the fifth level of the Cloud Sea Realm.

Seeing this, Chu Nan's eyes slightly condensed — at this moment, Hai Tianshang felt like an unfathomable ocean to him.

No wonder he hailed from the Desolate Ancient Holy Hall — his strength was indeed formidable.

Noticing Chu Nan's shocked expression, a sense of pride appeared on Hai Tianshang's face, and red light flickered continuously on his body.

All the power of the Cloud Sea condensed in his lower body, and with a loud roar, he swept out a leg.

A sharp, blood-colored leg wind swept out, demolishing everything in its path and causing the space to faintly tremble, making one's heart tremble with fear.

Seeing this, Zhi Qingyu's face was full of excitement and said, "Even among the strong of the Desolate Ancient Holy Hall, Hall Master Hai is outstanding. This Wind-Sweeping Leg is an Earth Tier Martial Skill, capable of shattering mountains and rivers with a single strike — how can Chu Nan resist!"

The fierce leg wind directly broke through Chu Nan's outer Blood Dao Cloud Sea and headed straight for his body.

At this moment, Chu Nan's sword stance had already fallen, and blood-colored Sword Qi poured out.

But even so, facing Hai Tianshang's Wind-Sweeping Leg, it constantly retreated, with the blood-colored Sword Qi being defeated step by step, directly approaching Chu Nan.

Seeing this scene, Hai Tianshang couldn't help but reveal a cruel smile at the corner of his mouth, as if Chu Nan's body had already been cut in half by his leg wind, dying tragically on the spot.

Even if Chu Nan managed to endure, he had an even more terrifying killing move to release on Chu Nan.

However, something completely unexpected happened to Hai Tianshang. Even though Chu Nan's Sword Qi was defeated, he didn't dodge. Instead, he actively advanced at an even faster speed.

Just as the leg wind was about to sweep Chu Nan's body, the Blood Dao Cloud Sea suddenly roiled, and a giant blood-colored python raised its head high, blocking in front of him!

Bam!

The power of Hai Tianshang's leg wind completely disappeared, but the weeping blood python transformed from the Sea of Blood also collapsed with a crash, turning into a rain of blood that obscured Hai Tianshang's vision.

"Bastard!" Hai Tianshang cursed angrily, unable to discern where Chu Nan actually was, and couldn't help but curse again.

But Chu Nan, relying on his formidable Spiritual Sense, had already circled behind Hai Tianshang. With Black and White Strangulation bolstered by the power of the Cloud Sea, he suddenly stabbed upwards from below.

"What!" Hai Tianshang's expression was stunned, as he instantly sensed the killing intent from behind, filled with disbelief.

Yet he had no worries — after all, he was a fifth-level Martial Artist of the Cloud Sea Realm. How could he possibly be harmed by a mere second-level Chu Nan of the Cloud Sea Realm?

Hai Tianshang immediately triggered his Blood Sea, transforming into a giant blood-colored eggshell that tightly shielded him.

Boom crack!

The Black and White Strangulation hit the blood-colored eggshell, causing a terrifying tremor in the air that sounded like thunder.

"Chu Nan, the gap between us is like the sky and the earth. No matter what you do, you can never be my opponent!" Hai Tianshang laughed triumphantly. For him, as long as the battle continued, the final victory would surely be his.

But Chu Nan simply chuckled and said, "Of course, I know I am not your opponent, and I never intended to defeat you now."

"My only goal is to devour your Sea of Blood!"

These words caused Hai Tianshang's expression to change dramatically. He didn't understand why Chu Nan would say such a thing, but he faintly sensed that the other party was absolutely not bluffing!

Swish!

The Blood Dao Cloud Sea poured out, along with all of Chu Nan's own power. This force, like a gigantic wave, directly engulfed the egg-shaped Blood Sea.

Chu Nan sat cross-legged in the Blood Dao Cloud Sea, fully operating the Nine Desolate Profound Transformation Sutra.

The Nine Desolate Profound Transformation Sutra can transform the essence blood of all things into one's own cultivation. Hai Tianshang inherited from Hai Wujie and cultivated mainly the Blood Dao, shaping a Blood Dao Cloud Sea like that of Hai Wujie and Ge Bai.

Additionally, Hai Tianshang's special status meant he must have used extremely precious Demon Beast Essence Blood when forming his Blood Dao Cloud Sea!

As long as there is Demon Beast Essence Blood, Chu Nan can use the Nine Desolate Profound Transformation Sutra to forcibly seize it through the Blood Dao Cloud Sea — this was his hypothesis, and it was the first time he used it in battle.

A terrifying suction emanated from Chu Nan's body, with an invisible force wrapping around Hai Tianshang.

In the mere span of three breaths, Hai Tianshang, hidden within the eggshell, changed his expression drastically. He faintly felt as if something had been lost, with an incomparably pure power uncontrollably flowing out of him.

In his Dantian, the blood-colored Cloud Sea surrounding the Inner Core began to contract at a very slow pace. Originally able to envelop four hundred zhang of the Sea of Blood, there were now only three hundred and ninety zhang left!

"What is this bizarre power? I can't let this continue any longer."

For the first time, a look of horror appeared on Hai Tianshang's face, because it was the first time he had seen someone actually absorb his Cloud Sea power.

If this continued, he might even fall a level!

Boom!

The eggshell shattered with a crash, and Hai Tianshang transformed into a blood-colored residual shadow, forcibly tearing through Chu Nan's Blood Dao Cloud Sea to dash out.

Standing hundreds of meters away from Chu Nan, the Sea of Blood draped over Hai Tianshang like a long robe.

With eyes as if about to devour someone, he demanded, "Chu Nan, what exactly have you done to me!"

A hint of regret appeared in Chu Nan's eyes. After all, Hai Tianshang was a fifth-level expert of the Cloud Sea Realm, and his Cloud Sea was difficult to control. Otherwise, he would have been able to absorb all the Demon Beast Essences within him!

"What did I do? Didn't you feel it?" Chu Nan retracted the Blood Dao Cloud Sea and confronted Hai Tianshang from afar.

Hai Tianshang knew Chu Nan was not his match, but after witnessing the previous scene, he dared not take another step closer, afraid his Cloud Sea would indeed shrink to the point of falling a level.

He hesitated for a moment, unsure of what to do, and refrained from attacking Chu Nan again. He then looked to Zhi Changmei and said, "Senior Zhi Changmei, while Chu Nan possesses methods similar to the Blood Array, he is ultimately just one person."

"The Desolate Ancient Holy Hall is the oldest power in the lower realm. I hope you don't make the wrong choice. We are always your best partner!"

Leaving that statement, Hai Tianshang waved a large hand and fled in a panic towards the distance.

Until he could thoroughly investigate the secret of Chu Nan absorbing his Cloud Sea power, he dared not rashly confront Chu Nan again.

Chu Nan was also excited about the recent successful experiment; if the Nine Desolate Profound Transformation Sutra could indeed absorb the power of the Blood Dao Cloud Sea, then in the future, could he possibly also devour the Seas of Blood from the Blood Dao Ninefold Heavens cultivators and the sixth-level Hai Wujie?
