Two Worlds: The Demon Cultivator Mistakenly Enters the Lord's World

Chapter 78 The Blood Path Demon Cultivator's Journey is Full of Pitfalls

The Lord of Fog Mountain sits atop Fog Mountain, yet he has eyes everywhere and listens to the surroundings.

With his cultivation level, it wouldn't be difficult for him to discern the true energy of Lu Feng's Blood Shadow Divine Art.

The Lord of Wushan Mountain has witnessed Lu Feng's rise over the years.

Lu Feng was upright and honest. After avenging himself by killing the Taoist priests of Xuan Yin Temple and taking their place, his deeds benefited the local people and won their hearts.

Since he did not engage in any indiscriminate blood-sucking or cruel acts of demonic cultivation, the Lord of Wushan Mountain gradually stopped interfering with Lu Feng's cultivation of the Blood Shadow Divine Art.

What the Lord of Wushan Mountain didn't expect was that Lu Feng's cultivation had improved rapidly in recent days.

First, he encountered a ghost cultivator in the late stage of Qi Refining and asked him for the Binding Yin Soul-Seizing Coffin. Later, he broke through to the late stage of Qi Refining and attracted the Crimson Essence Child.

One thing after another happened. Originally, the Lord of Wushan Mountain came with the Red Essence Boy, intending to intervene at a crucial moment and save Lu Feng's life again, so that Lu Feng would owe him a favor.

Unexpectedly, Lu Feng pulled out a bunch of skeleton soldiers and ghosts, and even raised a few strange-looking soldiers, all of whom had remarkable abilities.

In one battle, they actually wore down the Red Essence Child to death, leaving him utterly frustrated by the defeat.

If word got out, it would cause quite a stir in the cultivation world of Hongze County.

It seems Lu Feng must have had some incredible stroke of luck to reach this level and cultivate so many Dao soldiers.

The Lord of Wushan had no interest in exploring Lu Feng's opportunities; he only wanted to build a good relationship with him and see what Lu Feng's future held.

The words of the Lord of Wushan Mountain made his stance clear, instantly dispelling the tense atmosphere in the hall and making it less fraught with hostility.

"Thank you for your understanding, Master!"

Lu Feng smiled more, and the heavy weight in his heart was finally lifted.

He cupped his hands in thanks to the mountain lord of Wushan and expressed his gratitude.

Having practiced the Blood Shadow Divine Art, Lu Feng was a Blood Path Demon Cultivator. He readily admitted to his identity as a Blood Path Demon Cultivator, but he did not want this identity, which was detrimental to his current situation, to be spread and attract the righteous cultivators of both countries to besiege him.

The fact that the Lord of Wushan Mountain could keep his secret and understand his predicament was a great help to Lu Feng.

Subsequently,

Evelyn, Grey, and the others, under Lu Feng's command, cleaned up the main hall where the battle had just taken place.

One by one, the white skeletons disappeared into the hall, and the ghostly figures patrolled the surroundings, leaving only a few skeleton captains, led by the hero Iron Wall, to guard the Crimson Essence Child who was almost powerless to resist.

After chatting amicably with the Lord of Wushan, he recounted the origins of the Crimson Essence Child.

"If I remember correctly, although this person is named Chi Jing Tong Zi and is a relatively famous fire-path cultivator in Hongze County, his actual identity is one of the elders of the Blood River Sect in Hongze County, also known as Xue Tong Zi!"

"This guy once slaughtered an entire county outside Hongze County, collecting the blood of tens of thousands of people to forge a demonic artifact. He committed heinous crimes and was pursued by cultivators from Longhu Mountain. Later, he somehow escaped, entered the Blood River Sect of Hongze County, changed his appearance, washed away his demonic powers, and became the Crimson Essence Child he is today!"

"Compared to your mere practice of cultivation techniques and fabricated acts of killing, this Crimson Essence Child is the true ruthless and evil cultivator who kills without blinking an eye!"

When the Lord of Mist Mountain mentioned the identity of the Crimson Essence Child, he jokingly teased Lu Feng.

"Slaughtering the city to forge weapons! Blood River Sect Elder!"

Lu Feng didn't care about the mist mountain lord's teasing; he was only concerned about how many people behind this Crimson Essence Child were as interested in his Blood Shadow Divine Skill as he was.

The Lord of Wushan Mountain also saw through Lu Feng's thoughts. He asked Lu Feng to find all of Chijing Tongzi's clothes and magical artifacts and search through them.

"This Crimson Wind and Fierce Flame Banner has been refined by the Crimson Essence Child for many years. A set consists of nine banners, but he destroyed three of them just now, which greatly damaged this fire-based magic artifact. If you can pry the refining techniques out of him, you might be able to use them!"

The most valuable items belonging to the Crimson Essence Child were his several crimson flags. The Mist Mountain Lord examined them in his hand and then tossed them to Lu Feng.

"However, judging from your cultivation method, it seems you won't need this magic artifact for the time being. But this magic artifact is too distinctive, so you probably have no hope of selling it in Hongze County. You can only keep it and wait for the storm to pass before looking for an opportunity to sell it!"

Lu Feng put away the remaining six Crimson Wind Flame Banners, showing no intention of selling the magical artifact.

His forces will only continue to grow, and this magical artifact, once in his hands, will be a treasure of the lord world. He can give it to his troops who are skilled in fire magic, and it will surely be put to good use.

There's no need to sell them; if the Blood River Sect discovers them, it will only increase the risk.

After overlooking the Crimson Wind and Fierce Flame Banner, the Lord of Mist Mountain found a palm-sized pouch among the Crimson Essence Child's belongings.

This small and exquisite pouch was made of black leather that Lu Feng didn't recognize, and it was decorated with special blood-red patterns. It was clearly a magical artifact.

Upon seeing this magical artifact, the Lord of Wushan frowned and explained with disgust.

"This is the most commonly used storage magic item of the Blood River Sect, called the Human Seed Bag. It is usually made from the scalp of a living person. The more painful the process, the more resentment it generates, and the better the quality of the resulting magic item. The best material is the skin of a cultivator who practices the Blood Shadow Divine Art!"

"The material behind this humanoid bag is at least that of a late-stage Qi Refining cultivator who practices the Blood Shadow Divine Art!"

Hearing what the Lord of Wushan said, Lu Feng also felt a chill run down his spine.

As is widely known, the Blood Shadow Divine Skill requires a special technique to peel off one's own skin, refine the flesh and blood, and then begin the practice.

The skin of those who cultivate this skill is often their strongest part. In the end, they can refine their flesh and blood into their skin, transforming into a blood shadow.

When encountering an enemy, the blood shadow that one transforms into is the most powerful weapon.

The Blood Shadow pounces on the enemy, instantly devouring all the flesh and blood within, displaying immense power.

Seeing this humanoid bag made from the skin of a Blood Shadow Divine Art cultivator, Lu Feng felt only pity and helplessness for a rogue cultivator like himself.

He cultivated the Blood Shadow Divine Art, turning himself into a material for refining weapons for people like the Crimson Essence Child.

It's terrifying to even think about. He knew at the time that the Blood Shadow Divine Skill had a pitfall, but he was forced to comply by the Xuan Yin Temple.

He would have died immediately if he hadn't practiced the Blood Shadow Divine Skill.

He mastered the Blood Shadow Divine Skill, destroyed the Xuan Yin Temple, avenged himself, and has lived to this day.

He had no other choice.

If it weren't for the existence of the Lord World, I would probably have been subdued by the Crimson Spirit Child in an instant during today's battle, and then left to his mercy.

"To be precise, in the eyes of this Crimson Essence Child, you are merely a Blood Path Medicine!"

The Lord of Wushan Mountain noticed the change in Lu Feng's expression and said with a smile.

He channeled his inner energy to break through the restrictions on the human race bag, opened it, and found a small space that was half the size of a room, containing quite a few things.

The Lord of Wushan rummaged through the contents and took out a blood-red compass.

Close at hand.

The pointer on the crimson compass pointed directly in Lu Feng's direction, and Lu Feng moved twice.

The pointer on the blood-red compass rotated with his movements, always pointing in his direction.

"This compass is the tool that the Crimson Essence Child uses to locate the location of a blood-path elixir like yours!"

"Look at the design of this compass. As long as you are still in Hongze County, you cannot escape its lock and tracking!"

"To outsiders, you are a powerful and high-ranking late-stage Qi Refining cultivator, but in the eyes of the Crimson Essence Child, you are just a newly grown bloodline herb that has reached its harvest period!"

"If I pluck you and refine you into a Blood Pill, it will be an unparalleled tonic, and your hide will be a basic material for various blood-based magical artifacts!"

The words of the Mountain Lord of Mist Mountain vividly revealed to Lu Feng the tragic life of a cultivator who had mastered the Blood Shadow Divine Art.

If Lu Feng hadn't been able to travel between the two worlds, the Human Seed Bag might have been his final destination after he broke through to the late stage of Qi Refining.

How can it be a tragic word!
"Judging from your fighting today, it seems that the Crimson Essence Child pulled out a magical artifact specifically designed to counter powerful medicines like yours, but you didn't seem to be affected much!"

"You must have had some kind of fortuitous encounter that changed the foundation of the Blood Shadow Divine Skill. That's not bad, at least you're no longer under someone else's control."

"However, you'd better find a more profound method to change the foundation of your Blood Shadow Divine Art and start over. Otherwise, if you encounter a Blood Path Demon Cultivator who has cultivated a more powerful technique than the Blood Shadow Divine Art, you'll still be nothing more than a piece of cake in their eyes!"

"Although demonic cultivation techniques can be practiced quickly, the path is full of pitfalls. Once you enter this path, you may lose control of your own life. Only absolute power is the best way to solve all these problems!"

The Lord of Wushan explained a lot to Lu Feng, allowing him to learn more about the Blood Path Demon Cultivators.

He seemed to have a deep understanding of these demonic methods, and at the same time, he had many thoughts on them.

Lu Feng didn't know what the Lord of Wushan had gone through, but it was definitely an unforgettable experience for him.

Binding Soul-Capturing Coffin!
It might be related to the request from the Lord of Wushan Mountain that he help him after he reaches the Foundation Establishment stage.

Judging from the way the Lord of Wushan is acting, he clearly has no intention of sharing this matter with Lu Feng now.

Apart from these magical implements, the Red Essence Child's human-shaped bag contained only odds and ends.

There were vats of sealed blood, fresh flesh and blood sealed with talisman paper, bones, several talismanic artifacts, and a blood-red magic weapon resembling a long banner.

The Lord of Wushan Mountain glanced through it, but wasn't very interested, so he casually tossed the human seed bag to Lu Feng.

Lu Feng wasn't interested in the fresh materials inside. The Lord's World was full of wild monsters, and there were plenty of high-quality blood materials. He didn't need these materials taken from people.

As for the talismans and long banners, Lu Feng took a look and found them to be quite good. He decided to keep them for now and count them later.

After explaining the origins of the Crimson Essence Child to Lu Feng and recounting some knowledge about bloodline demonic cultivation, the Lord of Mist Mountain lost interest in staying at the Profound Yin Temple any longer.

The show's over; it's time for him to leave.

However, since the Lord of Wushan Mountain had come all this way, how could Lu Feng let him leave so easily?

He quickly used the excuse of thanking the Mountain Lord of Wushan for his help to invite the Mountain Lord of Wushan to stay for dinner.

They even brought out several jars of fine wine brewed with water from the Moon Well and a few apples from the Tree Man, presenting them to the Lord of Mist Mountain.

"Just tell me what's on your mind! Do you think I'd eat your food for free?"

Sipping fine wine and eating apples, the Lord of Wushan smiled broadly, looking at Lu Feng's eager expression and saying with a smile.

"I just want to ask about cultivation in the late stage of Qi Refining, as well as matters related to Foundation Establishment!"

Lu Feng laughed and then asked the Lord of Wushan about cultivation matters in the late stage of Qi Refining, especially knowledge related to Foundation Establishment.

Lu Feng was already in the late stage of Qi Refining. With his war experience, the accumulation of true Qi in each acupoint was not difficult for him in the late stage of Qi Refining.

He also needed to make plans for foundation building in advance.

Upon hearing Lu Feng's question, the Lord of Wushan Mountain was taken aback. He thought Lu Feng wanted him to find some profound cultivation techniques so that he could switch to them later.

After all, the Blood Shadow Divine Skill was too deceptive, but Lu Feng's question indicated that he wanted to continue cultivating the Blood Shadow Divine Skill and had even begun to plan for his future Foundation Establishment.

Is it too early to be thinking about these things when you've only just reached the late stage of Qi Refining?
"Foundation Building, huh? Foundation Building is really difficult!"

"For us independent cultivators, Qi Refining is like climbing a mountain; if we take our time, we can eventually reach the summit. But Foundation Establishment is like ascending to heaven—harder than climbing to the heavens!"
