Novel Full Chapter 471: Spectral Blood Eye!
"Slaughter Sword Intent."
Li Yun did not seem surprised by this scene at all.
The moment those branches and vines lashed toward him, he had already reacted.
Endless Slaughter Sword Qi instantly erupted and tore apart all the branches descending from above. Then, the sharp Sword Qi continued forward without losing momentum, slicing through the surrounding ancient trees at their waists.
Chiss!
Green liquid sprayed out from the cut sections of the ancient trees.
The moment that liquid landed on the ground, it released a sharp corrosive sound, as if acid had splashed onto flesh. In an instant, the ground was corroded into pits more than a foot deep.
"Hundred Layers Shield."
Li Yun let out a cold snort and directly unleashed the seventh-tier secret art. Several hexagonal shields formed around him, instantly blocking all the splashing green liquid several feet away from his body.
Crash! Crash!
Suddenly, the ancient trees that Li Yun had cut in half began trembling violently.
Green roots drilled out from the earth beneath them. Each ancient tree used its roots like legs, rushing away in a strange and frantic manner. In only a few breaths, they disappeared from Li Yun’s sight.
Seeing this, Li Yun had no intention of pursuing them.
This place was the first trial ground of the Chaos Heaven Secret Realm, and it was also known as Chaos Wind Island, the region with the highest level of danger and the highest elimination rate.
Chaos Wind Island also had another name.
The Island of Survival.
On this island, every cultivator who entered the Chaos Heaven Secret Realm would be separated and teleported into one of a hundred different isolated realms. These isolated realms could not be crossed. Whichever realm a person was sent to would become the only area they could move within.
On Chaos Wind Island, every cultivator had only one task.
They had to survive.
This island was filled with danger in every direction, and there was no place that could truly be called safe. Even a blade of grass by the roadside, an ordinary-looking flower, or a tiny crawling insect could contain deadly danger and kill a cultivator in an instant.
The creatures here possessed extremely high intelligence. The ancient trees from earlier were a perfect example. The moment they realized the situation was unfavorable, they immediately fled. If someone recklessly pursued them, they would likely be lured into a trap. With good luck, that person might still have time to shout the word "exit," but it was more likely that they would be killed before they even understood what had happened.
In this place, even cultivators at the 9th level of the Mortal Core Realm could not act without caution.
A single careless mistake, or a single moment of bad luck, could lead directly to death.
Doing everything possible to survive was the only true purpose of any cultivator who entered Chaos Wind Island.
The method to pass this trial ground was also very simple. Once only one thousand people remained on Chaos Wind Island, those one thousand cultivators who had not yet been eliminated would be directly teleported to the next trial ground.
"Hm?"
Suddenly, Li Yun’s brows furrowed.
Goosebumps rose across his body, as though some eerie and sinister existence had locked onto him from the shadows.
In the next moment, blood-red light suddenly spread through the air above him. The light expanded rapidly and condensed into a faint yet bizarre blood-colored pupil.
That blood-colored pupil was extremely cold and filled with an evil aura. As soon as it formed, it stared directly at Li Yun, and a sinister crimson light radiated from the depths of the pupil.
At the same time, an arrogant voice rang out from within that blood-colored pupil and instantly echoed throughout the entire Chaos Wind Island.
"Everyone, my subordinate has used the secret art, Spectral Blood Eye, to lock onto Li Yun’s position. Next, those who are in the same isolated realm as Li Yun may hunt him down to your heart’s content."
"Follow the direction shown by the blood pupil, and you will be able to find Li Yun. Whether you can become a third-class guest elder of the Starheaven Ancient Kingdom and earn a favor from this crown prince will depend on your own performance."
Crown Prince Xing Tian’s voice was grand and majestic, spreading into every corner of Chaos Wind Island.
Meanwhile, in another isolated realm located an unknown distance away from Li Yun, a pale-faced young man stood with a pair of strange blood-red eyes. Those eyes emitted a terrifying crimson light, faintly connecting with the cold blood pupil in the sky.
"What a pity."
The blood-eyed young man spoke indifferently. "Li Yun is not in the same isolated realm as us. Otherwise, we could have killed him directly."
"No matter."
Beside the blood-eyed young man, Crown Prince Xing Tian spoke with indifference. "With your Spectral Blood Eye secret art, Li Yun has nowhere to hide. Every cultivator in the same isolated realm as him will rush toward him like wolves smelling blood. As a cultivator only at the 7th level of the Essence Qi Realm, it is impossible for him to escape this calamity."
"If he somehow survives, that would be even better. Once we reach the next trial ground, this prince will personally kill him and wash away my previous humiliation."
As he spoke, a cold light burst from Crown Prince Xing Tian’s eyes, and endless killing intent poured out without the slightest concealment.
"The crown prince is wise."
The blood-eyed young man and the others grinned before nodding one after another.
"Spectral Blood Eye?"
Inside the valley, Li Yun’s eyebrows twitched slightly.
The Spectral Blood Eye was a seventh-tier secret art.
Once someone was marked by the Spectral Blood Eye, it would cling to them like a maggot attached to bone. No matter where the target hid, they would have nowhere to conceal themselves.
"Interesting."
A cold smile appeared on Li Yun’s face.
"Crown Prince Xing Tian, since you want to play so badly, I will play with you properly."
