From dual spiritual roots to a sword master with all attributes

However, he wanted to see City Lord Zheng before leaving, because there were many people watching the fun at Fang Mansion today, and City Lord Zheng was hiding in the crowd, just because he felt that strange breath again.

He turned into a long rainbow and soared into the sky, and soon disappeared into the horizon. He did not intend to leave openly, but just pretended to leave first to eliminate his guard.

In fact, he urgently used a breath-cutting technique from the Taibai Jingxiao Sword Canon to cut off his own overflowing breath and sneaked back to Jinyu City quietly. As long as this technique was activated, no one could sense it unless they saw it with their own eyes, even if they were at a higher level than him.

The Lord of Zheng City is named Zheng Xiu. He has served in Jinyu City for more than 30 years. During his tenure, he has not achieved anything significant and has always seemed rather mediocre.

When I felt the aura from him before, I felt that it was somewhat similar to the demonic energy I had seen in classics. I had never encountered a demon cultivator, so I was not sure.

"There is actually a formation here. Something is wrong."

Fang Xiao entered the City Lord's Mansion like a ghost and checked everywhere, but found no problems until he came to the viewing lake in the backyard and found a formation that concealed the aura.

Although he was not familiar with formations, this formation was extremely simple and had a very single effect. As long as he was careful, it would not be difficult to enter the formation without being discovered.

After an hour of exploration, Fang Xiao found a safe path. Using the Breath-Cutting Technique, he quietly arrived at the bottom of the Observation Lake.

There is a hidden world here, which is half the size of a football field. Zheng Xiu was able to dig out such a large dark room under the viewing lake.

At this time, the dark room was filled with a smell of rust. Fang Xiao looked around. There were eight blood-red stone pillars standing in different places in the dark room. There were different patterns engraved on the surface of the stone pillars, which he could not understand at all.

Eight corpses were tied to the stone pillars. They all looked thin and dry, with hands like chicken claws, and they looked like they could be blown away by a gust of wind. The blood grooves extending from the bottom of the stone pillars led to the blood pool in the center of the dark room.

Looking at the blood in the blood trough that had not yet dried up, the corpses on the stone pillars had all their blood sucked out.

The blood pool was surrounded by blood mist, emitting red light, making the entire cave appear dark red. Looking closely, there was a figure sitting in the pool. He had a head full of red hair and his left arm was broken at the root. He was an unfamiliar monk.

For the sake of not alerting the enemy, he did not use his spiritual sense to investigate, but judging from the fluctuations in spiritual power, this person was probably at the foundation-building stage, but at this moment his cultivation was fluctuating, sometimes in the middle stage, sometimes in the late stage.

There were a lot of bandages scattered around the pool. Looking at this man, his face was flushed and his broken arm was wrapped in a red light. He should be healing.

And since this person heals his wounds in this way, he must be a demon cultivator.

At this time, a figure walked out from the secret passage, went straight to the blood pool and knelt down. The person was Zheng Xiu.

"Master, how is your injury? The monks in the city have already left."

"Don't be careless. Before my injuries recover, you'd better keep a low profile and don't draw other people's attention. In addition, the blood pool still needs to be replenished with blood essence. For the time being, you can use the people in your house. It's a pity that there is no blood essence from the monks, otherwise it will recover faster."

The person in the pool opened his bloodshot eyes and spoke.

"Master is right. I originally planned to get the boy surnamed Fang to leave the sect, and then help Master to trick him in, and use his blood to help you heal your wounds. Unfortunately, he ran away. However, I have prepared eight strong mortals to help you heal your wounds."

Hearing his words, Fang Xiao also sighed, they are indeed father and son, their desire to harm others is the same.

"Don't worry, you have spiritual roots. Although you are a little old, you have my Blood River Sect's skills. As long as you have a lot of blood essence and blood pool to help you, not to mention letting you enter the Qi Refining Stage, it is not impossible for you to build a foundation in the future."

According to this man, he is from a sect called Xuehe Sect, and he can help Zheng Xiu, a man over fifty years old, to start practicing.

"Thank you, Master. As the Lord of Jinyu City, I can take whatever I want. If I can refine all the people in Jinyu City and help Master recover from his injuries, it will be their honor."

Fang Xiao also felt a trace of murderous intent. If he hadn't come back, it wouldn't be long before the entire city, including his father, would be slaughtered.

"That's right. If you take the path of demon cultivation, you have to be ruthless and merciless. Being kind to others means being cruel to yourself."

After Zheng Xiu left, the demon cultivator from the Blood River Sect began to heal his wounds.

Fang Xiao was planning to kill him instantly with all his strength while Zheng Xiu was healing. As for Zheng Xiu, he hadn't started practicing yet, so how far could his mortal body go? He would deal with him slowly later.

He just made a sword gesture, and the Taibai sword pill left the body silently. At the same time, a powerful spiritual power poured into it. A white rainbow shot out from the sword pill, and it was about to pierce through the demon cultivator.

Suddenly, the eight stone pillars around the blood pool lit up with dazzling red light, and the sword light transformed from the Taibai Sword Pill also stagnated. The demon cultivator also reacted amazingly and immediately dodged to avoid the vital points. The Taibai Sword Pill, which was a step late, only pierced his shoulder.

"Who dares to attack this old ancestor?"

Dozens of blood-red chains shot out from the stone pillar and split into two paths, one part shot towards the sword ball, and the other went straight to Fang Xiao's body.

Although Jianwan was not with him, Fang Xiao was not without a plan. Fang Xiao held the sword and pointed it at the attacking chains. In an instant, the sword light from his fingertips burst out like a flood. Although it failed to destroy the chains, it prevented them from advancing an inch.

As for the chain wrapped around the Taibai sword ball, it shattered into pieces the moment it touched the sword light around it.

"Jianwan, sword cultivation."

The demon cultivator's face changed drastically. He had not observed it carefully just now and thought it was some kind of powerful magical weapon. Now he reacted immediately.

His stone pillar was both a magic weapon and an array device. The chains it activated could take down not only a Foundation Establishment cultivator, but also some weak fake pills. However, just now, the mere touch of the sword light triggered by the opponent's sword pill caused it to collapse, which was definitely not something an ordinary Foundation Establishment sword cultivator could do.

He was seen using a surge of spiritual power, and the essence and blood in the pool also shot out towards the stone pillars. The eight stone pillars were the Eight Evils Blood Training Formation, which he created using the energy of eight Foundation Establishment cultivators. Their blood, flesh, and essence were all melted into them. On weekdays, they could refine blood and food to help him practice and heal his wounds. When defending against the enemy, it was like facing eight Foundation Establishment Blood Dao cultivators at the same time. After the formation was formed, the power of the Eight Evils' combined attack would increase exponentially, and they had the terrifying ability to be immortal as long as their essence and blood did not dry up.

Sword cultivators usually have only one method, high attack and low defense, and are not good at time battles. As long as he activates the Eight Evils Blood Training Formation, he can trap the sword cultivator in the formation and slowly grind him to death. By then, with the essence and blood of this foundation-building sword cultivator, his own injuries can be recovered by 70% to 80%.
