939 Blood God Venomous Worm (1/2)

Blue Night brought Zhang Ruochen into the Discipline King's Hall. They appeared at the feet of a shared saint soul of Discipline King Haiming.

”Master.”

”Grandmaster.”

They both bowed to Discipline King Haiming.

Discipline King Haiming stroked his beard and laughed, ”Linfeng, you really shocked me with your talent on palm plays. Good, very good.”

Zhang Ruochen said, ”But I can only open five apertures. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't open the sixth one.”

Discipline King Haiming took his time to speak. ”The origin of the Seven-Apertures Blood Palm is grand. It is said that Pluto has read thousands of rare books of palm plays in the world to create it. Its power may not be the strongest in the world. But once the apertures are opened, it will do extremely well for the monks who practiced it. They can give out more power with other palm plays.”

”But Pluto is an Immortal Vampire, who has strong blood Qi to crack all seven apertures in palms. It's extreme for human monks to open five apertures during the practicing of the Seven-Apertures Blood Palm. Nobody has ever opened the sixth one.”

”Therefore, you have reached the limit of human beings to have opened five apertures in ten days, and will benefit greatly from the five apertures in the future.”

Zhang Ruochen nodded, acting like he understood.

Then the Discipline King said, ”Do you know why Grandmaster called you here to the Discipline King's Hall?”

”I don't know,” Zhang Ruochen replied.

Discipline King Haiming explained, ”The Blood God Sect is an ancient sect inherited from the Middle Ages. Other than the supreme Hierarch, there are the Son of Deity, the Saintess, the Four Discipline Kings, the Elders' Pavilion and the Ten Heavenly Palaces.”

”Among them, the Ten Heavenly Palaces are ruled by the Hierarch himself. They are called: Nether, Waste, Underworld, Departure, Death, Heaven, Mess, Flood, Earth and Disorder.”

”Nether Heavenly Palace will recruit three Banner Lords tomorrow, and I hope you can go and strive to become one of them.”

Zhang Ruochen looked into the eyes of Discipline King Haiming, and found overbearing power. It was him using the Saint Might to press on him.

Apparently Discipline King Haiming was not negotiating with him. He was giving an order.

Zhang Ruochen folded his fists. ”I will not disappoint Grandmaster. Tomorrow, I will take the position of a Banner Lord.”

Discipline King Haiming nodded with contentment. ”If you can make it, I will reward you with a Third-class Divine Origin Pill to help you reach the Third Level of Half-Saint.”

Zhang Ruochen was moved by his words.

Discipline King Haiming would reward him with a Third-class Divine Origin Pill. It must be very important to be a Banner Lord.

”Before that, you must take this.”

A blood red light was thrown to the front between two fingers of Discipline King Haiming, landing on the palm of Zhang Ruochen.

It was a blood red pill the size of a grain of rice.

Zhang Ruochen input a spiritual power to detect it secretly, and found a slight life Qi inside the pill.

The finding frightened Zhang Ruochen for he knew that he was going to face a huge risk. Zhang Ruochen was clever enough to know that it was a Venomous Worm Pill.

Zhang Ruochen tried to keep calm and acted like he didn't know it. He asked, ”Grandmaster, what is it?”

”This is a pill that will add up to your strength. Once you take it, your chance to win tomorrow will increase greatly.” Discipline King Haiming laughed.

Blue Night, standing beside Zhang Ruochen, also gave a frightened look at the sight of the blood pill in Zhang Ruochen's hand.

Discipline King Haiming saw that Zhang Ruochen hesitated to take the blood pill, and gave a cold look. He kept laughing, but threateningly he said, ”What happened? You don't trust your Grandmaster?”

”How can I not trust Grandmaster?”

Zhang Ruochen stopped hesitating, and put the blood pill in his mouth. He swallowed it.

Zhang Ruochen wasn't given a second chance in the current situation. Only by taking the blood pill could he keep staying in the Blood God Sect.

If he dared to refuse Discipline King Haiming's order, he would probably die today.

Then, the piercing pain was sensed from his belly, like his veins being cut by thousands of blades.

The pain circulated through Zhang Ruochen's body with his veins, and ended up in his lower abdomen.

It was a venomous worm shaped like a centipede with 100 sharp legs. Its head was like a human skull.

Zhang Ruochen had survived from a even fiercer pain when he was reaching the Tenth Change of Fish-Dragon Realm.

But now he was no longer Zhang Ruochen, but the Blood Dragon Prince, Gu Linfeng.
