We agreed to set sail, so you'd become the ruler of the deep sea?

Chapter 489 [Feiya's Breakthrough to Legend] [The Tremors of the River of Blood]

After witnessing the truth about this pool of blood.

Xia En felt utterly ironic.

【Dirty Bloodline】Although they prey on their own kind, at least it's a fair and square law of the jungle.

These self-proclaimed noble "Holy Bloodline" members, however, used high-sounding reasons to offer their own kind as sacrifices!
Just as Xia En was pondering, the ritual in the blood pool was nearing its end.

The vampire prisoners on the twelve stone pillars have now turned into mummies.

Their eye sockets were hollow, and their faces were distorted, as if they had experienced extreme pain before death.

The filthy column of blood slowly receded back into the pool.

In exchange, wisps of dark red energy rose from the bottom of the pool and flowed into the crystal bottle in the guard leader's hand.

"The quality of the offerings this time is quite good."

The leader nodded in satisfaction: "That's enough to keep the temple running for a month."

Xia En's heart sank.

He realized that Faia was in extremely dangerous condition!

The higher-ups of the [Holy Bloodline] may very well be planning to offer Feiya as a "high-quality sacrifice" to the [Crimson Lord].

The blood of a pure-blooded royal is an absolute delicacy for that greedy god!
However, Xia En reconsidered.

For Feiya, this might also be a rare opportunity.

After all, even if it means offering up Hiya as a sacrifice.

The [Holy Bloodline] members will also help him complete the further transformation of his bloodline.

The projected body quietly dissipated in the blood pool chamber; Xia En had already made his decision.

next moment.

Xia En's true form opened his eyes.

The crew members quickly gathered around.

"Captain, how's the situation?" Joey asked.

Without hesitation, Shane told the crew what he had seen and heard.

"What?!"

Joey stared in shock, his eyes wide: "Those [Holy Bloodlines] are actually sacrificing their own people?"

"And the target might be Faia?"

Youxing clenched her fists, a cold glint in her eyes: "We have to get out of here immediately!"

Fei Ya's rose-gold pupils contracted slightly, but unexpectedly, he appeared unusually calm.

"and many more."

He raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet: "Captain Shane, you just said... they must help me complete my bloodline transformation first?"

Shane nodded: "Exactly, like lambs fattened for slaughter."

After thinking for a moment, Fei Ya suddenly spoke.

"Then why don't we turn the tables on them?"

You mean...

Xia En seemed to be deep in thought.

"Accept their 'legacy,' gain power, and then turn against them."

Fei Ya's voice was deep and firm.

"Since they want to use me, why don't we use them in return?"

Upon hearing this, Xia En glanced at Fei Ya in surprise.

Because this is exactly the same as his previous idea!
That's true if you think about it carefully.

Feiya is by no means a cowardly or timid person.

Back then, he was able to voluntarily enter the [Blood Moon Secret Realm], resist the instincts of the vampires, and earn the respect of everyone in order to defy his own fate.

That alone is enough to demonstrate his courage and decisiveness.

After boarding the Black Swan, Feiya has been maintaining the ship's equipment as a steam mechanic.

It's easy for people to forget his past deeds.

However, the other crew members still had different opinions.

Youyue frowned: "It's too dangerous."

"What if they tamper with the transmission..."

"Will not."

Shaun suddenly spoke up: "If my guess is correct, the [Crimson Lord] needs a 'perfect' sacrifice."

"Any contamination or control over the Feiya bloodline will lower the 'quality' of the offering."

"Therefore, they will definitely make sure that Feiya's bloodline is as pure and powerful as possible."

The stringed song transformed into human form, its golden-red eyes flashing with fighting spirit.

"Then let's give it a try!"

"Let those arrogant vampires taste the bitterness of being turned against them!"

Xia En looked around at everyone, and seeing that no one objected, he said in a deep voice.

"Okay, it's decided then."

"But before that, we need to make some preparations..."

……

……

This night.

There was a knock on the door of the secret room.

Alkain's voice came from outside: "Your Highness, the Grand Elder wishes to speak with you privately."

Xia En and Fei Ya exchanged a glance, and the latter took a deep breath and walked towards the door.

"I'll go right away."

When the door opened, Alkain was surprised to find all the crew members standing behind Faia.

“Everyone…”

"We respect Feia's decision."

Shane said calmly, "But please remember, if he gets hurt in any way..."

A profound, empty light flashed in his eyes: "I don't mind letting the Crimson Temple become history."

Alkain's pupils contracted slightly, clearly sensing the weight of Shane's words.

"Of course..."

He forced a smile and said, "His Highness is our hope, how could we possibly harm him?"

Fia said to Alkain, "Let's go."

"I am willing to accept the legacy."

A deep, complex look flashed in Al-Kain's eyes, but he quickly suppressed it.

"Princess Feiya, please come with me."

Not long after, under Alcain's guidance, Faia stepped into the Bloodborne Sanctuary, the deepest part of the temple.

The twelve elders were seated in a circular hall, the floor of which was covered with intricate blood incantations.

The elder held a dark gold dagger, its blade shimmering with a liquid light.

"Your Highness, please stand in the center of the magic circle."

The moment Fei Ya stepped barefoot into the crimson magic circle, dazzling golden-red patterns suddenly lit up on the ground.

The elder's dagger sliced ​​across his wrist, and drops of blood fell onto the center of the formation.

"Using the blood of the twelve elders as a catalyst, awaken the dormant royal mark!"

Twelve lines of blood flowed along the incantation toward Fei Ya.

He suddenly looked up, his rose-gold pupils turning completely into a blazing golden-red.

Suddenly, the clothes on his back tore apart, and two wings made of pure blood energy unfurled with a roar!

"Bloodwings! The legendary Bloodwings!"

One of the elders was so moved that he knelt down on the ground.

A glint of greed flashed in the Grand Elder's eyes.

The more perfect the wings, the more precious the offering to the Crimson Lord.

And at the same time.

Feiya's consciousness was sinking into the depths of her bloodline.

He saw a vast river of blood stretching across the void, each drop of water reflecting the images of different worlds. It lay across the boundless [Secret Sea].

But even the countless brilliant stars in the [Secret Sea] cannot obscure the brilliance of this long river.

Without a doubt, this is the legendary "River of Blood"!
Feiya subconsciously reached out her hand.

The moment Feiya's fingers touched the [River of Blood], the entire vast river of blood suddenly boiled!
Countless fragments of memories flooded into his consciousness like a torrent—

Feiya saw an ancient tree standing at the end of the [River of Blood].

That is the so-called "Crimson Mother Tree"!
Nourished by the River of Blood, the mother tree grew stronger and stronger, eventually bearing a full and abundant fruit.

The fruit fell into the River of Blood, and the first vampire in the Secret Sea was born.

That is, the Crimson Lord!
Following the Crimson Lord, new vampires were born through the Crimson Mother Tree.

The earliest vampires did not need to drink blood; they could directly communicate with the [River of Blood] to obtain the secret power of blood.

However, as the number of vampires increases, the [River of Blood] can no longer withstand their unrestrained draining.

The vampires were thus forced to traverse the "River of Blood" and travel to different "Secret Realms".

One of the vampire clans arrived at the Crimson Realm.

They could have thrived here, maintaining a delicate balance with the River of Blood.

However, the Crimson Lord's greed shattered all of this.

He was not content to be merely a member of the vampire clan, but longed to become the ruler of the [River of Blood]!

However, the will of the River of Blood also became aware of the Crimson Lord's ambition and took precautions against Him.

Therefore, the Crimson Lord took a different approach.

He regarded the Crimson Realm as his hunting ground, requiring the vampires to regularly sacrifice their members to him.

The projection of the River of Blood, the Lake of Holy Blood, happens to be located in this secret realm.

simply put.

The Crimson Lord uses the vampires of the Crimson Realm to steal the power of the River of Blood!

From this perspective.

Whether they are of the "Holy Bloodline" or the "tainted bloodline," they are all victims!
Feiya's consciousness floated in the [River of Blood], and countless pieces of information flooded into his mind like a tide.

He witnessed how the Crimson Lord seduced the first generation of vampire elders and established the so-called "sacrifice system";
I witnessed countless vampires being sacrificed by their own kind without their knowledge;

I witnessed how the power of the Holy Blood Lake was gradually stolen...

What shocked him the most was...

The Crimson Lord even deliberately instigated conflict between the Holy Bloodline and the Filthy Bloodline, causing the vampires to kill each other, thereby weakening the Blood River's control over the secret realm.

The so-called "royal bloodline" is actually the [River of Blood]'s countermeasure against the [Crimson Lord]!

Over the long course of time, the River of Blood will randomly give birth to pure-blooded royal descendants among the vampires.

These royal descendants were born with the ability to communicate with the River of Blood, and should have led the vampires to break free from the control of the Crimson Lord.

But the Crimson Lord cunningly turned the tables on him.

They claimed that the royal offspring were "sacred offerings" and tricked the vampire elders into sacrificing the royal offspring to them.

"So...this is the truth..."

A storm raged within Fei Ya's heart.

at this time.

Suddenly, the [River of Blood] surged with a colossal wave, and a pure golden-red beam of light pierced through the endless void, directly pouring into Fei Ya's body!
In the real world, the entire Crimson Temple trembled violently.

Feiya's blood wings surged to ten meters, each feather shimmering with a golden-red interwoven light.

His aura also broke through to the seventh-tier legendary level at this moment!

They're even charging towards even higher places!
What’s even more amazing is.

At this moment, everyone with vampire blood flowing through their veins felt the tremor of the [River of Blood] once again.

At the same time, in various secret realms within the Secret Sea.

The vampire nobleman who was at the banquet suddenly clutched his chest and knelt down;
The ancient vampires in the deep-sea castle opened their eyes, which had been dormant for thousands of years.
Even in the lair of the [Bloodstained Descendants], all the monsters were wailing towards the direction of the temple.
The entire vampire race felt a tremor deep within their bloodline!

When Fei Ya opened his eyes again, the scene inside the Blood Source Sanctuary made his heart skip a beat.

The twelve elders had surrounded him without him even noticing, each holding a dark red chain.

The chains were covered with eerie runes and exuded an unsettling aura.

The Grand Elder stood outside the magic circle, his face bearing a false sense of pity.

"Your Highness, your sacrifice will save the entire vampire race."

Feiya sneered: "Use my blood to feed that greedy false god?"

The elders' expressions changed drastically.

“How…how do you know?”

The Grand Elder exclaimed in shock.

"The River of Blood told me everything."

The blood wings behind Faia fully unfolded, and golden-red light illuminated the entire sanctuary.

"Including the crimes you've committed over the years!"

The Grand Elder quickly regained his composure and sneered, "So what?"

"The inheritance is complete, and the chains of binding will suppress your power."

"The blood of a pure-blooded royal is enough to satisfy the Lord!"

“Get started!”

Twelve chains shot out simultaneously, coiling around Fei Ya like venomous snakes.

However, just as the chains were about to touch Feiya, a pitch-black crack suddenly opened up in the center of the sanctuary!

Xia En's figure stepped out of the void, and the [Void Power] swept out like a wave, shaking back all the chains.

"I apologize for interrupting your 'ritual'."

A cold smile played on Xia En's lips as the crew members of the Black Swan emerged one after another behind him.

How could you—

The Grand Elder's face turned ashen as he quickly realized what was happening.

"Alcain!"

Al-Kain emerged from the shadows, his face filled with remorse.

"Elder, I cannot stand by and watch you continue this evil..."

"It's time to end this ritual that has been going on for so many years."

"traitor!"

The elder was enraged, and his withered hand suddenly transformed into sharp claws, aiming straight for Al-Kain's heart.

However, a golden-red light was faster than his movements!

Feiya's blood wings flapped suddenly, and she appeared like a phantom in front of Alcain.

He gripped the elder's attacking claws with one hand, his rose-gold pupils burning with fury.

"Your crimes have come to an end."

Fei Ya's voice was deep and majestic, as if it echoed with the sound of a "river of blood".

The elder was horrified to discover that his blood was beginning to boil uncontrollably!

"This is impossible! Why are the chains of binding ineffective against you?"

"Because the false gods you worship are utterly incapable of contending with the true [River of Blood]!"

Feiya suddenly exerted her strength, and the elder's arm twisted and deformed instantly, making a crisp sound of bones shattering.

Seeing this, the other elders all activated their secret powers, attempting to activate the defensive array within the sanctuary.

However, they soon discovered—

The secret power of blood within the entire Crimson Temple is frantically converging towards Fei Ya!
"He's drawing power from the Holy Blood Lake!"

"Stop him!"

The elders panicked and no longer cared about maintaining their noble image.

Xia En sneered as [Void Secret Power] condensed in his palm.

One after another, pitch-black holes formed around the temple.

"Your opponent is us."

Before he could finish speaking, Joey's illusory waves swept out, engulfing the three elders.

The stringed song transformed into a dragon, spewing out golden-red dragon flames, forcing the two elders to retreat repeatedly.

The Youxing couple worked seamlessly with Vivian, one using the secret power of stars to disrupt the enemy, and the other using the beam of annihilation to strike precisely.

The entire Bloodborne Sanctuary was instantly engulfed in chaos!
