Chapter 411: Miscalculation, Fusion (2)

“Why don’t you let me report to His Highness?”

Shi Songtao hesitated before saying, “His Highness is busy. He can’t see you. Go back to your room and stay there. I’ll inform him when he’s available.”

“Alright, thank you, Deputy Pavilion Master. Thank you, Deputy Pavilion Master,” Yao Buqi said. He no longer looked as arrogant as when he had confronted Shi Songtao. He didn’t even dare to move too much. He bent down and sneaked back to the stone house where he had been imprisoned. He heaved a long sigh of relief.

Shi Songtao secretly heaved a sigh of relief. Yao Buqi was a first-rank demonic beast. If the other party really went crazy, he could kill him with a slap.

But so what? I’m the deputy pavilion master of the Huaxia Pavilion. Even a first-rank demonic beast has to obediently lower its head in front of me!

Shi Songtao looked in the direction of Zhou Shu’s room, wondering if he was done.

There was a dazed look in his eyes. Once upon a time, he had liked the princess. But now, he dared not covet her at all. She was the pavilion master’s woman. How could he covet her?

In Shi Songtao’s heart, the pavilion master was already a god-like existence.

…

The god in Shi Songtao’s eyes was inside the stone house. He opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood. The blood was almost black and emitted a foul smell.

Yin Wuyou said worriedly, “Zhou Shu, are you alright?”

Zhou Shu didn’t answer. He sat cross-legged with his eyes closed.

A visible blood line kept colliding in his body. With every collision, a muffled sound came from his body.

Zhou Shu complained inwardly.

In the words of his previous life, one should not try to show off. Otherwise, one would be struck by lightning.

No matter how he schemed, he didn’t expect the blood energy in Great Wei’s imperial cauldron to be so overbearing!

He had used the blood qi of Yao Lian and the fake imperial cauldron to draw out the blood qi of Great Wei’s imperial cauldron.

If there was enough time, he could draw out all the blood energy in Great Wei’s imperial cauldron before using its power.

But in the situation at the time, the effect of the divine ability Total Annihilation would soon pass. He didn’t have the time to delay.

He had thought that with only that little bit of blood left, he could clear it out with his own strength.

Everything that happened later was as he had imagined. After shattering the fake imperial cauldron, it indeed erupted with a powerful force and blasted open the barrier between the two worlds.

The Demon Realm army was caught off guard and was involved.

This might not kill them, but it was a victory to drive them back to the Demon Realm.

Zhou Shu had actually learned this method when he entered the Emperor Wei Wu dream. Originally, he wasn’t too confident. But now, it seemed that Emperor Wei Wu had indeed been plotting this for a long time.

If it came to this, it would be a happy ending.

But the problem was that Great Wei’s imperial cauldron had not completely recovered its purity!

When Zhou Shu activated Great Wei’s imperial cauldron and blasted open the barrier between the two worlds, the remaining blood energy in the cauldron actually invaded his body!

The blood qi in Great Wei’s imperial cauldron was condensed by Emperor Wei Wu using the Mirror of Retribution after killing countless people.

Although it was only a trace, it contained countless resentment and violent auras. Not only was it destroying Zhou Shu’s body, but it was also trying to infect his consciousness.

Zhou Shu finally understood why Emperor Wei Wu had led the demonic beasts army to invade the Ten Nations Continent.

Emperor Wei Wu would probably have gone crazy if he had used this method to cultivate.

Absorbing this blood qi would definitely make him bloodthirsty and violent, making him lose his nature!

Zhou Shu smiled bitterly as he fought the infestation of the blood qi with everything he had.

After using the divine ability Total Annihilation, he would enter a weakened state. Be it his spiritual essence or his true qi, they would all dissipate within a day and could not be gathered.

Otherwise, even if he couldn’t expel that trace of blood qi from his body, he could still suppress it.

But now, he could only let the blood qi collide in his body and rely on his physique to resist it.

Fortunately, after mastering the Dragon Elephant Prajna Technique and Golden Bell Shield Technique, his body was incomparably powerful. Even if he was in a weakened state now, his physique was still there. Otherwise, just the collision of blood qi would have severely injured him.

Even so, Zhou Shu didn’t feel good. His weakness lasted for a day. If this continued, who knew how much damage this trace of blood qi would cause him?

“Zhou Shu, what can I do for you?” Yin Wuyou watched as Zhou Shu’s expression changed. Even if she didn’t know what was going on, she could tell that something was wrong with Zhou Shu.

“Urgh…” Zhou Shu groaned as another trail of blood appeared at the corner of his mouth. He suddenly opened his eyes, which were slightly red.

“Lend me your spiritual essence!” Zhou Shu gritted his teeth.

Yin Wuyou didn’t hesitate at all. She pressed her hands on Zhou Shu’s chest, and spiritual essence surged out of her body.

Yin Wuyou’s cultivation was far inferior to Zhou Shu’s, but she was still a second-rank martial artist. She transferred her spiritual essence into Zhou Shu’s body without holding back. The surging spiritual essence instantly entangled with the trace of tainted blood in his body.

This trace of blood qi was extremely strange. As soon as it came into contact with Yin Wuyou’s spiritual essence, it immediately began to infect her spiritual essence as well.

Yin Wuyou realized that something was wrong, but she didn’t retract her palms. Instead, she increased the strength of her spiritual essence.
