Vol 26 Chapter 1 (1/2)
Book 26, World Level, Chapter 1 – The Owner of the Eternal Blood
The instant that Ji Ning stepped through the towering gates and into the endless dark of the Castruan to twist around hihtened up as he found himself within a hallway
This hallway had rather uneven walls that had torches stuck into the the hallith their light
“Eh?” Ning stood there in the hallway and scanned the area No one else was in sight
“What’s going on? Why have I been separated fro mused to himself
Suddenly, a faint wave of energy rippled out fro hurriedly turned to look, only to see strands of fire fly out fro into the for, beautiful green hair Although her body was covered by a layer of thin gauze, she was essentially nude for all intents and purposes
“I am the formation-spirit of the Castrum Divinitus This is one of my incarnations,” the maiden said
Ning was puzzled “Why have I been separated from the others?”
“Everyone who took part in the Saood fortune However, since you each walk different paths you shall each be given unique bits of karle person has been teleported to a different part of the Castrum Divinitus,” the maiden said “Come with me”
Ning followed behind her obediently
Indeed, every single person had been teleported to a different region
The blood-robed youth, Arroyo, had also appeared in an empty hallway He scanned the hallith his bloodsea eyes, a hint of iauze-covered maiden suddenly appeared before his very eyes as well
“I am the formation-spirit of the Castrum Divinitus This is one of my incarnations Follow me,” the maiden said
“Where is the divine blood of the Eternal?” Arroyo asked
“The divine blood of the Eternal?” Theon her beautiful face
“Yes, the Eternal blood My performance atop the Samsara Grinders should’ve been the best of the five The Goldeye Goleh to warrant the Eternal blood being awarded, but that I would have to enter the Castruazed at the ive a das’ I just want the Eternal blood right away”
The maiden looked at him, then slowly shook her head “There is none”
“None?” Arroyo was stunned
“None for you, that is” The maiden looked at him calmly
“What are you saying?” Arroyo began to grow upset
“It is siiven to a different cultivator, not you” The maiden sood karmic fortune”
“Impossible!” Arroyo’s eyes instantly turned red with fury He howled angrily, “I was theWorld-level cultivators can possibly compare to onbinder of the Badlands Court? My servant? fukai? None of them are qualified! Daolord AllGod was an ancient power and an incredibly proud man There’s no way he would be so unfair!”
“All of the trials which Master set doere quite fair,” the maiden said “And the results of the trial were… that you did not qualify to acquire the Eternal blood”
“shi+T!!!” Arroyo was both enraged and panicked
How could he not be enraged? How could he not panic? His very life was riding on hi the Eternal blood! Both he and fukai had paid enorates of the Castruers, but they had been willing to risk their lives multiple times because they needed the Eternal blood
If they acquired the Eternal blood, their status would instantly skyrocket!
If they did not… they would die!
No one would be able to save him Not even his father would be able to save him
But it h atop the Samsara Grinders, he was definitely theWorld Gods He had felt certain that the Eternal blood would fall into his hands… and yet, reality had proven otherwise How could he not be angry? How could he not panic?
“How could this have happened? Who was it? World God Dragonbinder? No way, he was only able to win because of his Dao-seal fukai? He won in a pathetic fashi+on, and he is much weaker than me My own servant? His performance was completely unremarkable”
Arroyo continued to ponder the matter “Perhaps the Flamefairy, Su Youji? Mm… possible She is a brand new Chaos Immortal, but she was able to kill Darkfall! It could be said she punched well above her weight…”
“Was it Su Youji?” Arroyo looked at the maiden before him
“That’s a secret,” the maiden said “No need for you to ask”
“Wait, wait… soure, while Su Youji is extremely weak The only reason she even survived was because of that freakishly strong Elder God! How could Daolord AllGod possibly have been willing to give her the Eternal blood? hell, he’d probably give it to that freak of an Elder God before he’d give it to her”
