Chapter 135 Living People Soaking in the Underground Blood Pool
Lin Feng, carrying his gun, walked straight towards the dense forest to the west of the swamp.
He took a few steps and then stopped.
"Snow, wind, and frost."
She looked up.
You said the cave is twenty kilometers away?
"Yes, just follow the dry riverbed to the west, and it will be there at the end."
Lin Feng nodded and didn't turn around.
The four Northern Guards followed him into the dense forest.
The purple shadow of the eagle glided across the canopy, occasionally letting a patch of shadow peek through the gaps.
After walking about five kilometers, Lin Feng slowed down.
It's not that I'm tired.
Half of his attention was focused backstage.
Over there, on the Iron Rhino's side.
In a crevice in the northern mountains, a one-horned iron rhinoceros is locked in a head-butt with a Class B rock-shelled hornbill.
The two big guys collided head-on, the hornbill was knocked over, and the iron rhinoceros stepped on it with one hoof, and that was it.
Over there, on the other side of the griffin.
Lin Feng used his telekinesis to pull the fierce vulture up from above the swamp and fly towards the middle area of the Ten Thousand Mountains.
In the dense forest below, the life signals of Class A alien beasts were so numerous they resembled scattered stars.
The notification sounds in Lin Feng's mind kept ringing.
Walking while simultaneously defeating monsters.
Dual-line operation, running at full speed.
The growth rate of martial arts points is even faster than in the Valley of a Hundred Poisons.
When we reached the tenth kilometer mark...
Current Martial Arts Points: 6470000
Six million four hundred and seventy thousand.
carry on.
As the forest deepened, a putrid stench filled the air.
It wasn't poisonous miasma, it was the stench of rotting corpses.
Zhou Yuan wrinkled his nose.
"What does it taste like?"
Lin Feng didn't answer; his mental energy had already pushed forward.
Two kilometers ahead.
The terrain has changed.
A dried-up riverbed meanders into a low-lying area.
In the center of the low-lying area, there is a giant pit with a diameter of 100 meters.
The area around the giant pit was piled high with corpses.
Not just one or two.
Piles of them.
Raymond Lam was a beat slower than usual.
Using his mental powers, he discerned the condition of the corpses.
There were at least forty or fifty corpses of Class A alien beasts, each one shriveled up as if all the moisture had been drained from them.
The scales collapsed, the muscles atrophied, and the eye sockets became deeply sunken.
He wasn't beaten to death.
It was as if its life force had been drained.
Let's look further inside.
There are still people.
Seven or eight human remains were scattered on the pit walls.
Some wore dark green battle robes from the southern border region, while others wore gray combat uniforms from the western border military region.
The wounds on the severed limb did not appear to have been caused by a weapon.
It was covered in traces of something being absorbed; the skin was shrunken, the blood vessels were collapsed, and the bone marrow had been drained.
"What's going on?"
Lin Feng spat out a mouthful of phlegm.
He carefully examined the terrain surrounding the giant pit.
The ground was covered with dense array patterns.
Dark red, with smooth lines, each one soaked in blood. The array patterns radiate outward from the pit opening, connecting to the sixteen stone pillars around it.
The stone pillar is newly erected; the chisel marks on it have not yet weathered away.
Someone has renovated this place.
Blood Gathering Sacrifice Array.
Lin Feng had retrieved records of this item from the system's database.
The principle is simple: extract the vital energy of a large number of living beings and pour it into the core of the formation to nourish a specific target.
What is the goal?
He pushed his mental energy deeper into the cave.
One hundred meters.
Two hundred meters.
Three hundred meters away.
A huge underground space.
At the very center of the space was a pool of blood.
There were three living people soaking in the pool.
The three people had something stuffed in their mouths, their limbs were chained, and their life force was being slowly drained away by the blood pool.
They were still conscious, and their bodies were twitching slightly.
Seven people stood beside the pool of blood.
Standard combat uniform of the East Naval District.
The one in the lead was young, in his early twenties, lean, and had deep-set eyes.
He crouched by the blood pool, carefully probing the stone wall at the bottom with a probe.
A plant grows on the rock face.
The roots and stems were embedded in the bottom of the blood pool, the leaves were dark gold, and the flower buds had not yet opened, but the concentration of spiritual energy emitted was already causing the entire cave to tremble slightly.
Earth Vein Dragon Lotus.
Lin Feng's eyelid twitched.
He had seen this thing in the system before.
This is a top-grade elixir, extremely rare. Taking it can directly help a martial artist break through to a higher realm.
On the black market, there's no upper limit to the price, because you can't buy it even if you have the money.
The people of the East Sea are using the life essence of living people to accelerate the ripening of this thing.
The young man who was squatting stood up.
His aura was unusual, so profound that it seemed unusual for someone in their twenties.
Half-step Martial Saint.
He used his mental energy to scan the area to the side again.
An array plate is embedded in the rock wall at the entrance of the cave, and the patterns on its surface are still in motion.
Signal shielding array.
No wonder there was nothing unusual on the outside light screen.
Lin Feng withdrew his mental power.
He turned around and looked at Zhou Yuan and the other three.
"The four of you stay outside and keep watch. If anyone comes out, stop them."
Zhou Yuan opened his mouth.
"Lieutenant Lin, what's the situation inside?"
"The people of Donghai are performing human sacrifice."
The faces of all four people changed simultaneously.
"Don't go in, you can't stop them."
Lin Feng didn't say anything more.
He took a step forward and jumped directly down into the hole.
The cave passage was wide, with a slope of about thirty degrees, but Lin Feng did not use the passage.
He pressed himself against the cave wall, suppressing his mental energy to the lowest level, and his body fell silently in the darkness.
He actively compressed his Qi and blood at the third level of Martial Venerable, with almost zero leakage.
Thirty seconds later, he landed on the edge of the underground space.
It was hidden behind a protruding rock.
It is less than fifty meters away from the blood pool.
The men from the East Naval District are just ahead.
The young man was talking to his deputy.
"The dragon lotus buds are just one-tenth of the way through. Throw three more people into the pond, and they'll bloom tonight."
The deputy hesitated for a moment. "Young Master Song Jiao, we're running out of survivors. We only captured three from the Western Border team; two escaped."
Song Jiao.
Lin Feng remembered the name.
Song shares the same surname as Song Zhenkun.
Song Jiao stood up and patted the mud off his hands.
"If they've run away, so be it. We can replace them with other beasts. Grade A is less efficient, but we need enough. Let the people outside go and capture a few more."
He paced back and forth to the edge of the blood pool, looking down at the three people soaking inside.
One of them is still struggling.
Song Jiao stepped on the man's fingers that were sticking out of the water and rubbed them twice.
"Don't move. Your life force is worth two Dragon Lotuses. Conserve it and live a little longer."
A muffled sobbing sound came from the pool.
Lin Feng emerged from behind the rock.
The butt of the Dragon Blood Crimson Gold Spear struck the ground with a sound.
thump.
The sound echoed in the cave.
Several people turned their heads at the same time.
Song Jiao reacted the fastest. His first reaction upon seeing Lin Feng wasn't panic, but rather a slight frown.
"Who are you?"
Lin Feng took two steps forward, carrying the gun.
The crimson-gold gun barrel reflected a dazzling light under the dark red glow of the blood pool.
"Northern Military Region, Lin Feng."
Song Jiao was stunned for a second.
Then he laughed.
With a crooked mouth and eyes rolled upwards, he exuded an excitement that seemed to come from the depths of his being.
"Lin Feng? The Lin Feng who killed Bai Xiuzhe?"
He waved to the people behind him. "My luck has come."
The seven men from the East Sea Naval Region simultaneously spread out towards Lin Feng, forming a semi-circle that blocked his retreat.
Song Jiao pulled a black chain from his waist.
Each link of the chain was engraved with dense runes, and at the end was a dragon skull carving the size of a fist.
Dragon Bone Soul-Locking Rope.
Grade A treasure.
"I heard your body is very tough?" Song Jiao wrapped the chains around his arm, making a clicking sound.
"Perfect timing. To ripen the Dragon Lotus, we need a living sacrifice with extremely high concentrations of blood and qi. The blood and qi of a Martial Venerable is far more useful than any A-grade exotic beast."
He gestured with his chin toward the cave entrance.
"Activate the formation."
A buzzing sound came from the cave entrance. Dark red runes lit up on the rock wall at the entrance, indicating that the killing array had been activated.
Exports are blocked.
Lin Feng glanced at the light shining through the cave entrance, then looked down at the three half-dead people in the blood pool.
"Song Zhenkun's son?"
Song Jiao shook his head. "Nephew. But he's more effective than his own son."
"Okay then."
Lin Feng pressed the tip of the gun down.
Crimson-gold energy surged outwards from the gun.
"If the old ones can't be dealt with, then the young ones will be killed without hesitation."
Song Jiao's smile vanished.
"You think you can get out of here once you're in?"
