Chapter 34: Blood Sea Demon Cave

  Chapter Thirty-Four: The Blood Sea Devil's Lair

  First update, today's third update, red ticket, go ahead and smash me, help me keep my new book ranking position, the one behind me is very fierce, every week I'm being bombed with chrysanthemum flowers, it's really pitiful.

  Xiao Chen wiped away the heavy mountain seal left on the black storage ring, and his spiritual consciousness instantly sank into the ring.

  With a brush of his hand——

  In an instant, Xiao Chen discovered that the storage ring had a self-contained space, with an area of about eight or nine square meters, similar to a small house. Inside, there were many elixirs, spiritual grasses, crystal stones, and demon cores.

  Xiao Chen didn't take a closer look and was about to leave, but at the moment he was about to exit, his divine soul inadvertently swept across a map!

  "A map?" Xiao Chen's eyebrows slightly furrowed, and he carefully looked at it. He couldn't help but notice that this map was somewhat similar in material to the one Ma Tian had given to Ying Hong Xianzi back then.

  At that moment, Xiao Chen's heart moved slightly, and the map flew out of the storage ring, appearing in his palm.

  And just at this moment, Yue Ling opened her mouth and shouted: "Xiao Chen Shidi, what are you looking at? Hurry up and dispose of the corpse."

  "Alright." Xiao Chen also knew the importance of the matter, so he immediately put away the map. The three of them dragged the corpse into the tall grass and hid it.

  When disposing of Zhong Chongshan's body, the various crystals, spiritual grasses, elixirs and demon cores that appeared before his death immediately stunned Yue Ling and You Jian.

  "Let Yu Shixiong and Yue Shijie take it away, it's a reward for helping me." Xiao Chen said lightly, this is Xiao Chen's style of doing things, treating friends as warmly as spring, and treating enemies as coldly as winter.

  "What Xiaochen said is nonsense, don't forget that we are from the same team - 'Dinosaur Team', with a shared honor and common fate. This thing can't be divided equally, you should have a share." Yu Jian is straightforward, generous, and has a strong sense of justice, although he may seem rough around the edges, but his heart is genuine.

  Yue Ling also said: "Xiao Chen, junior brother, why are we still being polite? You have the weakest cultivation, so the elixirs and crystal stones will all go to you. As for those spiritual herbs and demon cores, Yu Jian senior brother and I will split them evenly. Once we reach the Spiritual Awakening Mirror, we can also refine our own elixirs."

  Upon hearing this, Xiao Chen couldn't help but feel a little guilty for not being righteous. He had clearly taken the storage ring of Zhong Chongshan for himself, and it contained so many good things. However, at this moment, he didn't dare to say that he didn't want them directly, lest it would make Yue Ling and You Jian unhappy. So, he said: "I am a Starlight Warrior, I need a huge amount of energy as my foundation, these things are not very useful for me, you can take them away."

  Upon hearing this, You Jian and Yue Ling exchanged a glance, hesitated for a moment, and then You Jian said: "Alright, Xiao Chen Shixiong, consider it a favor I owe you."

  Yue Ling smiled slightly at Xiao Chen and nodded, indicating that she had also taken note of this matter.

  After the two of them finished packing up their things, Xiao Chen said: "You guys come and take a look at this map!"

  Just now, when Yue Ling and You Jian were collecting those stolen goods, Xiao Chen also opened the map in his hand. After a look, Xiao Chen found that the place indicated on this map seemed to be related to the Demon Way.

  Upon hearing this, Yue Ling and You Jian immediately walked over. On the map, there was a blood-red 'X' mark. The place was called "Blood Sea Demon Cave".

  "What's this 'Blood Sea Devil's Lair'?" Yu Jian and Yue Ling both furrowed their brows, with Yue Ling asking: "Xiao Chen, where did you get this map from?"

  Xiao Chen said: "This map is the one that Zhong Chongshan brought out, but I feel that this map and the map material presented by Ma Tian to Zhong Chongshan on that day are extremely similar. Could it be..."

  Just as Xiao Chen was about to express his speculation, Ye Liu Xing's voice suddenly echoed in Xiao Chen's mind, and Ge Xiangqian, Zhong Chongshan's cousin, had actually returned.

  "Not good, let's go!" Xiao Chen suddenly rolled up the map and jumped onto the Soul Devouring Beast, urging it to flee. Yue Ling and You Jian didn't understand what was happening, but they had always trusted Xiao Chen's judgment on their journey so far, so they followed him without asking any questions.

  Three people urged the Soul Devouring Beast to move, and in the time it took to drink a cup of tea, a black figure arrived like a whirlwind. It was Hei Feng Xue Lang. On the wolf's back, Ge sat with a gloomy expression, his eyebrows tightly furrowed.

  "A strong smell of blood, traces on the ground, a fight broke out here..."

  After Ge Xiang killed the purple ghost servant, he found that Zhong Chongshan and others did not follow up. At this moment, on this must-pass road, he also discovered signs of fighting and a strong bloody smell. A bad premonition suddenly rose from Ge Xiang's heart.

  He dismounted and strode directly towards the grassy wilderness where Xiao Chen and others were dealing with the corpses. With each step, Ge Xiang's face grew darker and more sorrowful.

  As Ge Xiang walked forward to the grassy wilderness, when he parted the grass with his hands, his face had already turned dark to the extreme, as if a thick cloud was covering his head, and intense killing intent burst out from his body.

  Although he was still on Hei Feng Blood Wolf's body, Ge Xiangqian's powerful divine soul had already discovered the dead bodies in the grassy wilderness, but he still wanted to confirm with his own eyes whether his cousin Zhong Chongshan had really been killed.

  It is said that he was killed by a person because Ge Xiangqian determined based on the marks of the fight that it was absolutely not done by a monster, but by a human martial artist!

  In the midst of the grassy wilderness, five corpses lay quietly, some with their heads and bodies separated, others with their intestines pierced through their abdomens. However, Zhong Chongshan's throat was torn apart by a powerful sword energy, leaving a terrifying blood cavity, which was still oozing fresh blood.

  "It's the sword energy released by Fa Xian!" Ge Xiang was a highly skilled cultivator, an inner disciple of the war body sect, and had rich combat experience. Just by examining the corpse, he gained a lot of information.

  "Since it's a law sword that triggered the sword energy, then the killer must still be near the Lingguang Mirror, and the blood hasn't solidified yet, which means he died not long ago."

  "Huh? What kind of swordsmanship is this? I've never seen it before?"

  Ge Xiangqian focused the inspection on Zhong Chongshan, not even looking at other disciples, and precisely because of this, he missed extremely important information.

  If he had examined the other corpses, he would have found that they were killed by people from Iwato Toshiro's clan, but he didn't.

  Moreover, coincidentally, Xiao Chen killed Zhong Chongshan without using any sword techniques, completely relying on his powerful and unrefined sword momentum to knock Zhong Chongshan down.

  "What kind of person is he?" Ge Xiang returned to Heifeng Blood Wolf's back once again, furrowing his brow in thought.

  "Could it be that he's a disciple of the Demon Gate? No way, right? Weren't all the disciples of the Demon Gate recalled to the Blood Sea Demon Cave?" Ge Xiang was plunged into deep doubt. However, just at this moment, suddenly, in Ge Xiang's mind appeared the several Out Cloud Sword Sect disciples he had met while chasing after the purple ghost servant. "Could it be them?"

  At this thought, Ge suddenly burst into rage, "What a big nerve you have, daring to slaughter fellow disciples and seize the treasure! Hmph... If it weren't for having to rush to the Blood Sea Demon Cave now, I would definitely find you and torture you to death to avenge my brother!"

  Although Ge Xiang was formidable, he wasn't a god and had no idea where Xiao Chen and the others were headed. He couldn't find them even after searching for a short while, so he gave up decisively. Afterwards, he took out a map from his storage ring, glanced at it, and rode off on the Black Wind Blood Wolf.

  Xiao Chen and the others, upon hearing that Ge Xiang had gone ahead to escape, identified a direction and ran wildly in it, continuing for over twenty miles until Ye Liu Xing told Xiao Chen that Ge Xiang was not pursuing them, at which point the group finally stopped.

  "Xiao Chen, shidi, what just happened? Is it Ge Xiang coming to kill?" Yue Ling's eyes sparkled with intelligence as she immediately grasped the key point.

  "It's true." Xiao Chen confirmed that Ge Xiangqian didn't kill anyone, let out a sigh of relief, and then said: "Ge Xiangqian is Zhong Chongshan's cousin, with his cultivation he must have discovered that Zhong Chongshan was killed, maybe he has already suspected us, and now might be waiting for us outside the Nan Yun Black Forest to fall into his trap."

  "What can we do?" Yu Jian heard this and suddenly became anxious, they couldn't be trapped here forever.

  Xiao Chen also furrowed his brow, at this moment Xiao Chen couldn't think of a good solution either. Having been in the dark forest of Nan Yun for so long, he would inevitably encounter powerful demonic beasts, and when that time came, it would be a matter of life and death.

  "What if we go... Blood Sea Devil's Cave...?" Xiao Chen asked tentatively, looking at Yue Ling and You Jian's reaction.

  "Xiao Chen, how did you think of going there! That's one of the Demon Gate's strongholds, do we have a way out if we go there?" Yue Ling was shocked and puzzled by Xiao Chen's idea.

  "That's not necessarily true. Think about it, the map that Hong Xianzi obtained has the same material as this one, so it's highly likely to be a map of this kind. Therefore, I suspect that the inner disciples, elite disciples, and core disciples of the sect all participated in this task, but their task content was different from ours, each with their own responsibilities."

  Xiao Chen paused for a moment before continuing, "That mysterious creature's origins are unknown, the sect must have already investigated and known that this matter is related to the Great Demon Sect. Therefore, it's not just the outer sect disciples who were sent out, even core disciples participated, only this can explain why the sect's core disciples appeared at that time and took away the map."

  After hearing Xiao Chen's speculation, Yue Ling and You Jian both felt that it made a lot of sense and was very likely to be true, and they couldn't help but be shocked by Xiao Chen's deductive abilities.

  "So, what Shao Chen meant was that although the Blood Sea Demon Cave is very dangerous, our core disciples from Yun Jian Sect are also there. If we go, we can receive protection. It seems dangerous, but in fact it's safer than being in Nan Yun Black Forest and facing Ge Xiang."

  "Not bad, that's exactly what I meant. And the Blood Sea Devil Cave is a gathering place for evil demons and external devils. We can go there to kill some weak demon cultivators or unknown creatures and earn contribution points. Our current contribution points are not guaranteed to be among the top five among all outer sect disciples." Xiao Chen said: "So going to the Blood Sea Devil Cave is a bit more dangerous, but danger and opportunity coexist. Are you willing to take the adventure with me, Yue Shixiong and You Shixiong?"

  "What else can I do now? It's all up to you." Yueling said, but as soon as she finished speaking, she felt a bit off and immediately turned bright red.

  "You Jian said with a heroic tone: 'Heroes are forged in the fire of adversity, Xiao Chen my junior brother, let's take on the challenge and see what happens!'"
