Chapter 2223: The Ten Wings

After passing through a special dimensional barrier, the space in front of him suddenly became clear. It was a world of difference from the outside world.

Zhang Ruochen could feel that the Saint Qi of heaven and earth in this space were extremely dense. It almost turned into a liquid state. The Precepts of heaven and earth were also very active and gave out a strange rhythm.

Zhang Ruochen saw many tall trees. Each of them was more than 1,000 meters tall. Their branches were luxuriant and they gave off an extremely dense blood qi. They turned into blood clouds and filled the entire world.

Under each towering tree, there was a pool with a diameter of about 100 meters. It was filled with bright red liquid and as thick as blood, but it gave off a strange fragrance. It was refreshing and intoxicating.

“Longevity Blood Tree,” Zhang Ruochen said softly.

The Xue Jue Family was huge. There were hundreds of millions of members in the family. It was normal to plant a large number of Longevity Blood Trees.

With the methods of the Xue Jue Family, the quality of the blood produced by the Longevity Blood Tree must be extraordinary.

Zhang Ruochen could tell at a glance that the energy contained in the blood pools before him could reach the level of human blood in the Fish-dragon Realm.

Some of the blood pools could even reach the level of half-saint and Saint Blood.

Zhang Ruochen knew that if he wanted to get high-quality blood, he had to invest a lot of saint stones to cultivate the Longevity Blood Tree with a special secret method so that it could grow for a very long time.

Although the Longevity Blood Tree had strong vitality, it could only survive for a myriad of years under normal circumstances. Only by cultivating it with secret methods could it survive for one or even more periods.

The older the Longevity Blood Tree was, the better the quality of the blood it produced.

Of course, although the amount of blood here was huge, the blood could not be used directly. Secret techniques had to be used to extract and condense the blood. It was far less convenient than absorbing the blood from a cultivator.

Blood Empress said, “This is the most important forest of Longevity Blood Tree of the Xue Jue Family. It is a core resource. Each Longevity Blood Tree has been growing for at least a myriad of years. The quality of the blood it produces is high enough to be used by most of the elite members of the family.”

Zhang Ruochen nodded slightly. Perhaps only a big family like the Xue Jue Family with a long history and a deep foundation could cultivate such a large-scale forest of Longevity Blood Tree.

This should also be an important foundation for the Xue Jue Family to produce many powerful figures.

The deeper he went, the taller the Longevity Blood Tree he saw. The quality of the blood it produced was also higher. There was even a blood pool comparable to the quality of a Supreme Saint’s blood.

Suddenly, Zhang Ruochen stopped and locked his gaze on an exceptionally huge Longevity Blood Tree in the distance.

This Longevity Blood Tree was covered in layers of blood clouds. Its trunk was dozens of miles in diameter. Its bark glowed with golden light, and there was a strong divine force emanating from it.

Even the blood in the blood pool below it was different from the others. It was golden in color, and there was a thick divine aura spreading out.

“That’s the mother tree. All the Longevity Blood Trees here are derived from it. It has grown for more than ten Yuanhui Tribulations. If nurtured with Godstones, it can produce blood comparable to divine blood. There were no more than fifty trees within the entire Immortal Vampires,” Blood Empress explained.

Just this ancient Longevity Blood Tree was enough to show how powerful the Xue Jue Family was.

Zhang Ruochen’s heart skipped a beat. He hadn’t expected a tree to be as old as Lord Wentian of the Ten Tribulations.

Perhaps it was because it was a tree that could live for so long.

Even though gods were powerful, they would almost always die in the face of a Yuanhui Tribulation. It was rare for gods to live for ten Yuanhui Tribulations.

‘This mother tree must be a god-level lifeform to be able to give birth to Divine Blood.’ Zhang Ruochen thought.

He looked in another direction. Not far from the mother tree, there was a huge statue that was tens of thousands of miles tall. It looked like a divine giant overlooking the entire Bloodsky Clan world.

Even in the distant starry sky, one could see the outline of the statue.

The statue was an Immortal Vampire. It wore golden armor and looked extraordinary. It has twenty-four pairs of golden wings on its back and it looked very lifelike. There was even an obscure divine aura emanating from it.

Below the statue, there was a deep spring and viscous blood flowed out. It gave off an ancient aura. It seemed to have existed for countless years.

With just a glance, Zhang Ruochen knew that it was the Immortal Blood Spring from the ancient times that Blood Empress had mentioned.

It was incredible that a single blood spring could span so many eras and never dry up.

“Huh? That’s…”

At this moment, Zhang Ruochen made a discovery.

There was a figure sitting cross-legged by the ancient Immortal Blood Spring, absorbing its ancient blood qi.

That person had long, blood-red hair, a slender body, and an extremely strong murderous aura. There was also a terrifying flame burning fiercely.

More importantly, there was a phantom standing behind that person. It was extremely majestic and seemed to have a life of its own. It was overflowing with fighting spirit.

“Xue Tu.”

Zhang Ruochen was slightly surprised.

This was an extremely important secret land of the Xue Jue Family. Xue Tu should not be cultivating here.

Zhang Ruochen could sense that Xue Tu was very different from before, but he did not know why.

Xue Tu was also a Supreme Saint now. Although he had just broken through, the Saint power he exuded was terrifying. It wasn’t something an ordinary Neverwilt Supreme Saint could compare to.

A divine light flashed. Blood Empress appeared in front of the ancient Immortal Blood Spring with Zhang Ruochen.

“I have asked someone to take Xue Tu away because his birth chart is very special. Wargod Bloodflame of Immortal Vampire died in the second gradient of the Endless Abyss, leaving the Mark of Wargod Bloodflame. Xue Tu can inherit it,” Blood Empress said with a smile.

Hearing this, Zhang Ruochen suddenly realized that the majestic phantom standing behind Xue Tu must have been formed by the Mark of Wargod.

For Blood Empress to pay so much attention to it, the Mark of Wargod Bloodflame must be very unusual.

It had to be said that Xue Tu’s qi was very strong. He was recognized by the Seamless Purgatory Tower and had a special birth chart that inherited the Mark of Wargod Bloodflame.

Blood Empress continued, “I have taken him as a disciple and specially brought him to the Xue Jue Family. With the help of the blessings of the ancient Immortal Blood Spring, he can activate the Mark of Wargod Bloodflame. He can be reborn and successfully forged the Neverwilt Saint physique here.”

It turned out that Xue Tu had become the disciple of the Blood Empress. It was no wonder that he could come here to cultivate.

“Mother, what should I do?” Zhang Ruochen asked as he collected his thoughts.

He came here to receive the blessings of the Immortal Blood Spring. What happened to Xue Tu had nothing to do with him.

Blood Empress said, “This Immortal Blood Spring was discovered by the ancestor of the Xue Jue Family. That’s why the Xue Jue Family was established here. Only the most outstanding disciples of the family are qualified to be blessed here, and this is the true vessel of the ancestor.”

Zhang Ruochen’s eyes couldn’t help but change slightly after hearing that. He thought it was a statue, but it turned out to be the true vessel of the ancestor of the Xue Jue Family. No wonder it gave him a special feeling.

Different races had different sizes of divine bodies.

For example, the human god’s physique was measured in meters. The dragon god’s physique was measured in miles. The ant god’s physique was measured in centimeters and the Immortal Vampire god’s physique was measured in myriads of miles.

Whether it was the height of this ancestor’s godly physique or the number of wings he had, they were all too terrifying. No one knew how strong his blood qi was when he was alive.

“If you want to receive the most thorough blessing, you need to enter the Immortal Blood Spring with your true body. However, you will have to endure great pain,” said Blood Empress

Pausing for a moment.., then Blood Empress continued, “There is one thing that I need to remind you of first. The blessing of the Immortal Blood Spring will make the blood of the Immortal Vampires purer. Chen ‘er, you have the blood of the human race. If you don’t know your limits, you may be assimilated.

“If you choose to be assimilated, the process won’t be dangerous.”

“If you want to keep the human bloodline… I hope that you can do what you can. If you can’t, you can leave the Immortal Blood Spring. It’s just a blessing. It’s nothing.”

Zhang Ruochen thought for a moment. He took off his shirt and jumped into the Immortal Blood Spring.

Blood Empress didn’t leave and she stood guard.

The blessing of the Immortal Blood Spring wouldn’t take too long. It could take as long as one day or three days. The key was the strength and endurance of one’s bloodline.

As soon as he dived into the Immortal Blood Spring, Zhang Ruochen immediately felt great pressure. Waves of cold power seeped into his body through his pores, almost freezing his blood.

At the same time, an extremely ancient aura entered his body and slowly combined with his bloodline.

Instantly, Zhang Ruochen’s Immortal Vampire bloodline was fully awakened. He couldn’t help but turn into an Immortal Vampire. Eight huge golden wings spread open. The arcane runes on them all appeared clearly, they shone with dazzling golden light.

Boundless blood qi gathered toward the eight golden wings, forming a thick blood cloud that enveloped Zhang Ruochen.

Zhang Ruochen’s eyes were blood-red. Despite his strong mental will, he still showed pain.

Zhang Ruochen stabilized his mind and he activated the Empyrean Emperor Ming’s Scripture with all his strength and took the initiative to mobilize the power of the Immortal Blood Spring to refine his body.

At a certain moment, Zhang Ruochen had an epiphany. A method to circulate the blood qi appeared in his blood. His blood qi couldn’t help but circulate according to this method.

All of a sudden, the circulation of the blood qi in Zhang Ruochen sped up. He transferred a large amount of blood qi from the Immortal Blood Spring into himself.

In this way, Zhang Ruochen’s blood qi increased rapidly. There seemed to be no limit.

In the blink of an eye, a day passed.

Zhang Ruochen gritted his teeth and endured the pain. At the same time, he tried his best to control the Immortal Vampire bloodline so that his human bloodline wouldn’t be devoured.

He did not want to become an Immortal Vampire completely no matter what.

‘I’ve reached my limit. If the Immortal Vampire bloodline continues to awaken, I won’t be able to control it,’ Zhang Ruochen thought.

He wanted to continue cultivating in the Immortal Blood Spring to refine his physical body and spiritual will. The situation would be completely out of his control if he continues.

Just as Zhang Ruochen was about to leave the Immortal Blood Spring, his body suddenly shook.

Half of the human bloodline throbbed at this moment. It released an extremely ancient aura that went against the Immortal Vampire bloodline.

Boom

A terrifying will was awakened from Zhang Ruochen’s human bloodline.

The Immortal Vampire’s bloodline was suppressed and started to retreat. Its characteristics in Zhang Ruochen started to disappear.

Next, an extremely tall figure appeared outside Zhang Ruochen’s body.

Bang

The phantom of the Wargod Bloodflame behind Xue Tu was hit and couldn’t help but take a step back.

Because of this, Xue Tu retreated from his state of cultivation. Surprise appeared in his eyes.

“Greetings, Master,” said Xue Tu.

Xue Tu stood up and bowed respectfully to Blood Empress.

Blood Empress’s gaze was locked on the tall figure outside Zhang Ruochen’s body. Her eyes shone with a strange light. “The revival of the Immortal Vampire bloodline has activated the will of the Immovable Wisdom King in Chen ‘er’s human bloodline.”

The Immovable Wisdom King was a legendary figure in Kunlun. He was so ancient that many people didn’t believe that he existed.

Now that Zhang Ruochen’s bloodline had revealed the will of the Immovable Wisdom King, it was undoubted proof of all this.

At this moment, a change occurred again. The flesh wings on Xue Jue Family’s ancestor’s true vessel suddenly trembled. They released a streak of blood light and entered Zhang Ruochen’s body.

Instantly, the Immortal Vampire bloodline that had been suppressed began to boil again. Powerful bloodline power burst forth.

Another tall figure appeared outside Zhang Ruochen’s body. It was the same as the Xue Jue Family’s ancestor.

The two tall figures stood side by side. Their formless wills clashed, but neither could do anything to the other.

For a moment, the Precepts and Saint Qi of heaven and earth in this space became chaotic. There were signs of a storm of Saint Qi.

Under such circumstances, Blood Empress could not just stand by and watch. She waved her hand and released a streak of divine force, quickly calming the Precepts and Saint Qi of heaven and earth.

However, Blood Empress didn’t interfere with what happened in the Immortal Blood Spring to prevent it from affecting Zhang Ruochen.

Xue Tu’s eyes were serious. Even though it was only the will of the Immovable Wisdom King and the ancestor of the Xue Jue Family, it still had a strong impact on his mind.

If he hadn’t activated the Wargod Bloodflame’s Mark and reached the Supreme Saint Realm, he would probably be prostrating on the ground now.

‘How powerful is Zhang Ruochen’s bloodline power?’ Xue Tu thought.

Even though he was no longer the same as before, there was still a big gap between him and Zhang Ruochen.

The fierce collision between the human bloodline and the Immortal Vampire bloodline caused Zhang Ruochen great pain. He felt like his body was about to explode, and his spirit and will were about to split apart.

Roar

Zhang Ruochen suddenly raised his head and let out a deafening roar.

CRASH!

A majestic blood qi rushed out from Zhang Ruochen’s back.

In the next moment, another pair of golden wings grew out.

It was also at this time that the figure of the Immovable Wisdom King and the figure of the ancestor of the Xue Jue Family entered Zhang Ruochen’s body at the same time. All the pressure disappeared without a trace as if it had never appeared.

Boom

The ten golden wings on Zhang Ruochen’s back fluttered. He flew out of the Immortal Blood Spring immediately.

Floating in the air, the ten golden wings fully unfolded. Golden light flashed as they crazily absorbed the rich Saint Qi of heaven and earth.

A vast amount of the Precepts of heaven and earth were activated and revolved around Zhang Ruochen. Everything was under his control.

Just as Blood Empress had said, after the blessings of the Immortal Blood Spring, Zhang Ruochen could better control his wings and every strand of his power.

He felt better than ever.

The two types of bloodline power in his body were in balance. It was like yin-yang tai chi, allowing him to transform between the human form and the Immortal Vampire form at will.

Xue Tu stared at Zhang Ruochen, his eyes full of surprise. He wasn’t surprised that Zhang Ruochen had golden wings, but he was surprised by the number of golden wings.

It was hard to imagine that someone who had just reached the Neverwilt Realm could have ten golden wings.

Different from when he first saw golden wings, Zhang Ruochen smiled now.

He could feel that his body and the Precepts of Heaven and Earth of the Infernal Court were now perfectly compatible.

Previously, he had spent decades using the Sundial to comprehend nearly two hundred million Precepts. It was mainly because he hadn’t fully integrated with the Precepts of heaven and earth of the Infernal Court yet. There was always repulsion and his comprehension speed was greatly affected, this was also an important reason why it was difficult for him to break through to the mid-stage of the Neverwilt Realm.

Zhang Ruochen had four pairs of golden wings before. If that time came, he could perfectly integrate with the Precepts of heaven and earth of the Infernal Court and put them to good use. How could he comprehend two hundred million Precepts for such a long time?

Even without the help of the Divine Dragon Enlightenment Chamber, he only needed thirty years to comprehend two hundred million Precepts.

The help of golden wings to comprehend the Precepts was very obvious. Now, with an additional pair of golden wings, Zhang Ruochen’s comprehension speed could double.

In other words, he only needed fifteen years to comprehend two hundred million Precepts.

If he continued using the Divine Dragon Enlightenment Chamber, the speed of comprehension would be even faster.

Zhang Ruochen roughly calculated that the speed of comprehending the Precepts was about ten times faster than before the blessing.
