Chapter 716 Blood Lake

Soul Refining Island, Yama Island, and Blood Demon Island are three islands that are distributed in a straight line on the Xumi Sea. Soul Refining Island is at the southern end of the Xumi Sea, and Blood Demon Island is at the northern end, with the extremely large Yama Island in between.

When rushing from Soul Refining Island to Blood Demon Island, Wu Yan did not want to attract anyone's attention, so he did not plan to use Kunpeng's sword escape, but chose to use the teleportation array. Although communicating with Zhou Shanzhu consumed a lot of high-level spirit stones, the entire Xuandao Sect's treasury was at his disposal, so how could he lack spirit coins such as spirit stones?

If it were not for the consideration that taking too many spirit coins would have a negative impact on the foundation of the entire sect, he would even prepare more high-level spirit stones and communicate with Zhou Shanzhu frequently with his mind.

Of course, he would not do such a stupid thing. Besides, Zhou Shanzhu is now in the recovery period, so naturally he does not want to be disturbed by Wu Yan frequently. Wu Yan would only choose to communicate with Zhou Shanzhu unless he encountered an extremely difficult problem.

The cost of taking the teleportation array is nothing to Wu Yan. There are teleportation arrays for long distances between the three islands. As long as enough spirit stones are paid, teleportation is quite convenient, and the speed is no slower than his escape technique.

After Wu Yan's Night Wandering Yin Spirit returned to his original body on the Soul Refining Cliff, he immediately used magic to change his appearance and turned into an inconspicuous late Jindan casual cultivator.

Wu Yan directly found the market at the north end of the Soul Refining Island, and after spending a hundred mid-level spirit stones, he left the Soul Refining Island directly from the teleportation array in the market.

The end point of this teleportation array is at the south end of Yanfu Island, where there is a large market built by Xumi Sect. If you want to go to Blood Demon Island, you need to continue to take the teleportation array in that market, teleport to the market at the north end of Yanfu Island, and then teleport to Blood Demon Island through the market at the north end.

At this time, Wu Yan was thinking about the Blood Lake God Blood Palace, so he did not stop along the way. He took the teleportation array and went all the way from the South Market of Yanfu Island to the North Market. He took the teleportation array from the North Market and directly arrived at the South Market of Blood Demon Island.

During this trip, in order to prevent being detected as a heretic, Wu Yan changed several identities. When he arrived at Blood Demon Island, he had become an ordinary casual cultivator in the early stage of the Nascent Soul.

Unlike the Soul Refining Island, the sky above the entire Blood Demon Island is covered by a layer of blood clouds all day long. Even the scorching sun in the sky, between rising in the east and setting in the west, standing on the island and looking into the sky, the color of the scorching sun is also bloody. Therefore, on the Blood Demon Island, to the west of the Blood Lake, there is a hall built by the Blood Demon Sect, named the Blood Sun Hall. The origin of the Blood Sun Hall is actually related to this.

If a cultivator does not know the origin of the Blood Demon Island, he will naturally be surprised by this situation. Now that Wu Yan has learned from Di Ting that Blood Demon Island was transformed from the corpse of an ancient Xuantian God, he naturally understands the reason for the situation on the island.

After arriving at Blood Demon Island, Wu Yan did not rush directly to the Blood Lake, the core area of ​​the Blood Demon Sect, but began to inquire about the current situation of Blood Demon Island in the market, to find out who is currently in charge of the affairs of the Blood Demon Sect, and whether the Blood Emperor Xie Wu Yu is on the island.

After more than ten days of constantly changing his whereabouts and judging from the news from various channels, Wu Yan has a very clear understanding of the current situation of Blood Demon Island.

Xie Wu Yu surrendered to Xumi Sect and took refuge under the command of Emperor Buddha of Xumi Sect. At this time, he was invited by Emperor Buddha to go to Yanfu Island and was not on the island. In order to prevent other unpredictable things from happening, Xie Wu Yu even took his family to Yanfu Island. Judging from this plan, he is not going to return to Blood Demon Island before the great catastrophe of the realm arrives.

Now the Blood Demon Sect is being taken over by the Xumi Sect, and the whole sect is in chaos. Except for the Blood Lake, a special core area of ​​the sect, which is still guarded by several core disciples of the Blood Demon Sect, other places have basically been successfully taken over by the Xumi Sect.

However, because of this incident, the several major families that originally depended on the Blood Demon Sect did not want to leave the Blood Demon Island and move to the Yama Island, so they formed a confrontation with the Xumi Sect on the Blood Demon Island.

If the Blood Lake was not guarded by Xie Yunya himself at this time, I am afraid that the several major families on the Blood Demon Island and more than a dozen island forces would have united to capture the Blood Lake.

For more than ten thousand years, the cultivators of various tribes on the Blood Demon Island have relied on the divine blood in the Blood Lake and the special blood spirit contained in the divine blood to practice magic skills. However, there is no such unique condition as the Blood Lake on the Yama Island, so they naturally do not want to leave this place.

The Blood Lake is located in the center of the Blood Demon Island, surrounded by mountains, and the terrain is crisscrossed and very complex. Although the blood lake is only a thousand miles in size, it has more than ten blood rivers extending outward, nourishing the families and independent cultivators who practice magic skills on both sides of the lake.

The entire blood lake is protected by a natural blood ban. Even ordinary Yuanying period cultivators dare not approach it easily, let alone break the ban and enter it.

In addition, the four sides of the blood lake are guarded by the huge buildings built by the Blood Demon Sect. As long as outsiders approach the area of ​​a thousand miles near the blood lake, they will be noticed by the disciples of the Blood Demon Sect at the first time. The defense is extremely tight.

At this time, the Blood Demon Palace at the north end of the blood lake is under the personal control of Xie Yunya, the Blood Sun Palace at the west end is controlled by the Xiao family, the Blood Hand Palace at the south end is controlled by the Cai family, and the Blood River Palace at the east end has been taken over by the Xumi Sect.

It is probably not easy to enter the blood lake without being noticed. No matter where Wu Yan enters the blood lake from, it will trigger the blood ban reaction on the blood lake, and the cultivators guarding in the four palaces will be able to detect it at the first time.

The only way to get in is to choose a weak link from the four palaces, bribe the monks there, sneak into it, and sneak into the blood lake without anyone noticing. Only then will you have the opportunity to sneak into the blood lake, enter the ancient well, and then enter the God Blood Palace to absorb the essence of the ancient god's blood and temper his holy demon body.

Wu Yan had inquired in the Blood Demon Island Market that Xie Yunya was ordered by his father to guard the blood lake. Before he came back, no one was allowed to open the blood lake for cultivation.

It is worth mentioning that on the surface of the blood lake, the Blood Demon Sect had built a number of blood platforms for the cultivation of demon monks who absorbed the blood spirit. In the past, as long as you spent a huge amount of magic crystals, or were a direct disciple of the Blood Demon Sect, you would have the opportunity to enter these blood platforms and absorb the blood spirit in the blood lake below for cultivation. Now the blood lake is completely closed, and no outsiders are allowed to enter it. This path is obviously no longer accessible.

With the magical power that Wu Yan is cultivating now, it is not impossible to sneak into the Blood Lake, but the key to the problem is that since the Blood Demon Sect occupied the Blood Demon Island and the Blood Lake, it has set up another ban under the Blood Ban of the Blood Lake. If you want to pass through this ban, you must get a special token from the Blood Demon Sect.

In order to prevent other sects or other casual cultivators from killing people and stealing treasures, taking the tokens of the Blood Demon Sect disciples and sneaking into the Blood Lake, the Blood Demon Sect has very strict control over this token. It is always sent and received at any time, and it is impossible to spread it out.

Now, this blood ban that can enter the Blood Lake has also been taken back to the Blood Demon Palace. Other places can't get this token at all. In fact, strictly speaking, the Blood Demon Island Blood Lake has been under full martial law. Even if the Xumi Sect has taken over the Blood River Palace, it cannot enter the Blood Lake.

In a valley about two thousand miles away from the Blood Lake, there is a place called Xuetangzhuang, which is a foreign affairs market built by the Blood Demon Sect that can lead to the Blood Lake.

Wu Yan stayed in an inn in this market as an outsider who admired the Blood Lake.

This place was also closely guarded by the disciples of the Blood Demon Sect. Any outsider who entered here had to accept the body search and interrogation of the disciples of the Blood Demon Sect and purchase a token for tracking.

With this tracking order, his whereabouts could be displayed on the main array of the Blood Demon Palace at any time when he walked within a radius of thousands of miles.

Wu Yan could clearly perceive that since he entered the Blood Pond Manor, his whereabouts had been secretly monitored. In fact, when he asked people about things related to the Blood Lake, he was not only repeatedly given cold stares, but also attracted the interrogation of high-level cultivators of the Blood Demon Sect.

After living in the Blood Pond Manor for more than ten days, Wu Yan had already realized that no matter how he tried, it would be difficult to sneak into the vicinity of the Blood Lake, unless he could get the support of the core disciples inside.

However, Wu Yan did not want to reveal his identity, and he could not force his way in, so he felt like he didn't know how to start.

If he rashly forced his way in, alerting the cultivators in the Blood Demon Sect and causing them to completely close the Blood Lake, he would have no chance to enter the Blood Lake.

Although the situation in the Blood Demon Sect was in chaos, Wu Yan discovered after observing for many days that this chaos was just a façade to confuse the Xumi Sect.

Judging from the situation, Xie Wuyu actually had no intention of offering the Blood Demon Island. The reason why he led his family to Yamfu Island was probably just to confuse the Emperor Buddha Patriarch.

Since the sect inheritance cave treasure owned by Xie Wuyu was not completely sacrificed, he could not take it with him. It should still be in the Blood Demon Palace, or it should be in the Blood Lake.

With the special power of the cave treasure, Xie Wuyu could return to the Blood Lake at any time even if he was in Yamfu Island. Even though he sent the rest of his children to Yanfu Island, someone had previously captured his children and forced him to hand over the treasure of the cave, but all failed, and his children were also killed. Xie Wuyu did not care much about this. It can be seen that the only younger generation that really made him care was probably Xie Yunya.

In recent days, Wu Yan still had no idea about entering the Blood Lake. Out of boredom, he drank in the inn he rented today to relieve his boredom.

There were all kinds of people in Xuetang Manor. The inn that Wu Yan rented now was opened by the Xiao family. Usually, many children of the Xiao family came here to sit and relax. Today, the Xiao family is in the limelight on the Blood Demon Island because of the strong rise of Xiao Xuelian, and no one dares to offend them.

Wu Yan was sitting near the window in the lobby at this time, drinking while quietly releasing his spiritual sense to sense the movements in the entire Xuetang Manor. Suddenly, a young man with a mysterious smile came to Wu Yan's table with a pot of spirit wine. He chuckled a few times and said to Wu Yan in a familiar way, "My friend, I saw you getting drunk in Xiao's Inn for a few days. You look sad. It seems that you are worried. My name is Xiao Tongtian, and people give me the nickname 'All-knowing'. If you have any difficulties, you may as well tell me. Maybe I can help you."
