Starting with SSS-rank talent, I contracted the Forbidden Ferocity.

Black gold king's blood drips into the blood river.

a drop.

The river of blood boiled.

The second drop.

The remnants of eight shattered tombstones lit up simultaneously.

The third drop.

The crimson king's heart on the chest of the Blood River Saint Son trembled violently.

The smile on his face froze.

"What are you doing?"

Shen Ye gripped the sword piercing his chest, his eyes chillingly cold.

"To crush your heart."

The Blood River Saint Son seemed to have heard the biggest joke in the world.

"Use your blood to suppress the vampire king's heart?"

"Night King, do you really think your blood is stronger than the royal court's holy blood?"

Shen Ye did not answer.

The system is beeping wildly.

The Night King's blood flowed into the Blood River.

[The second awakening of the Myriad Beasts Divine Rune has been triggered ahead of schedule.]

[Current Awakening Progress: 61%...73%...82%...]

[Warning: The host's Qi and blood are being lost too quickly.]

[Warning: The Blood Gate is reversing its course and consuming the King's Blood.]

Should we continue with Option 3?

Shen Ye said:

"continue."

boom!

The myriad beasts divine pattern on his chest lit up completely.

It's not the original black and gold pattern.

Instead, they are lines of animal patterns that have come to life.

Night Feather's Black Sun.

The Nine Netherworlds of Zhu Jiu.

The Battle of Longyuan.

The divine punishment of the calamity.

Four beast-like markings simultaneously emanated from Shen Ye's chest, following the dripping royal blood and plunging into the depths of the blood river.

Blood River Saint's expression finally changed.

Because he sensed that a corner of his control over the Blood River Burial Map had been pried open.

It's not about cutting it off.

It is an invasion.

Shen Ye's royal blood is not ordinary blood.

The Covenant of the Myriad Beasts is engraved inside.

Vampires control corpses with blood and open doors with blood.

Shen Ye then used even stronger blood to suppress the Blood River.

Blood River Holy Son roared:

"Blood River King Bat!"

The Blood River King Bat behind him let out a sharp cry and spread its wings.

Countless blood-red sonic blades pierced towards Shen Ye.

Shen Ye did not dodge.

Night Feather flew off his shoulder.

The Black Sun Netherfire transformed into a pitch-black sun, directly crashing into the Blood River King Bat.

boom!

The blood bat flew backwards.

Night Feather's wings were also shattered by the shock.

But it did not retreat.

The black sun hung above the Blood River, beginning to burn the Blood River Holy Son's blood soul imprint on the Ten Thousand Burial Diagram.

"Candle Nine".

Shen Ye's voice was very low.

From within the shadows, Zhu Jiu emerged.

The Nine Netherworlds unfolded, no longer locking away the shadows of corpses, but rather the shadows of the Blood Gate.

The blood gate has a physical form.

The doorway was also visible.

The Nine Netherworld Burial Shadows fell.

The pale hand that was bracing itself against the crack in the door suddenly stopped moving.

"Longyuan".

The Fighting King Ape stepped out.

It grabbed the remaining blood chains on Lu Chenzhou's body with both arms, and its blood patterns surged all over its body.

It's not about tearing it off.

Instead, it forcibly pulled the blood chain outwards, creating a slight gap between the blood chain and the blood gate.

At last.

Shen Ye raised his hand and pressed down on Jie Chen's head.

"Watch the door."

Jie Chen's Heavenly Punishment Eye on his forehead opened completely.

Grayish-white lightning shone on the blood gate.

The pale hand behind the door looked as if it had been burned by lightning, with black smoke rising from its fingertips.

Blood River Saint's eyes were extremely gloomy.

"You think you can close the door like this?"

"The king's heart has been sacrificed."

"The Blood Gate must open!"

He suddenly raised his hand and grabbed the scarlet heart in his chest.

They actually wanted to crush Wang Xin.

Wei Cang's expression changed drastically as he stood on the city wall.

"Stop him!"

But no one can intervene.

The rules of the ancient war monument suppress all seventh-tier units.

Shen Ye looked up.

This is the moment he's been waiting for.

If the Blood River Holy Son continues to offer sacrifices, the gate will slowly open.

But if he were to crush the King's Heart, he would have to concentrate all the power of the Blood Gate into his palm.

In that instant, he himself became the weakness.

Shen Ye drew the short sword from his chest.

Fresh blood spurted out.

His face paled instantly.

But the black and gold blood-red light on the sword's edge was dazzlingly bright.

[The second awakening of the Myriad Beasts Divine Rune is complete.]

[Awakened Ability: Beast King's Contract.]

[Effect: Briefly unifies the essence of beast taming, using the host's royal blood to control blood souls, soul imprints, and secret treasures of the same rank.]

[Currently maintainable duration: three breaths.]

Three breaths.

enough.

Shen Ye took a step forward.

The Blood River Saint has captured Wang Xin.

"open!"

He roared.

But the next moment, Shen Ye's sword had already arrived.

First breath.

Night Feather Black Sun Netherfire burned away the outer layer of blood seal on the King's heart.

Second breath.

The shadow of the Nine-Nine-Year Burial Locks the Shadow of the Blood River Saint.

The third breath.

The Heavenly Punishment of Calamity shines through the gate deep within the King's heart.

Shen Ye slashed down with his sword.

It wasn't the head of the Blood River Saint.

It's not about severing the king's heart.

Rather, it is the thinnest bloodline between the King's Heart and the Blood Gate.

Click.

The bloodline has been cut off.

Blood River Saint's eyes widened suddenly.

"impossible……"

Shen Ye leaned close to him, her voice very soft.

"You talk too much."

A flash of sword light swept across.

Blood River Saint's right arm flew up to his shoulder.

The crimson king's heart fell from his palm and was caught by Shen Ye.

The Blood Gate shook violently.

The pale hand behind the door struggled frantically, trying to pry the door open again.

Jie Chen let out a low roar, and the lightning in the Heavenly Punishment Eye surged.

The Nine-Nine Candles descended from the Netherworld.

Night Feather Black Sun Burning Gate Pattern.

Long Yuan roared and dragged the blood chains off Lu Chenzhou's body backward.

boom!

The blood gate is closed by half an inch.

Two fingers of that pale hand were forcibly severed.

A deep, inhuman roar came from behind the door.

The entire Night-Slaying Platform trembled.

Shen Ye ignored him.

He held the Blood Clan King's Heart and looked at the Blood River Holy Son.

The Blood River Saint Son had lost an arm and was pale-faced, yet he was still smiling.

"The Night King"

You can't win.

"Once the King's Heart leaves the body, the Blood Gate will seek a new catalyst."

"If you hold onto it, it will only devour you."

Shen Ye looked down at the Crimson Heart in his palm.

Wang Xin was still beating.

With each jump, the blood gate trembles.

The system prompts an error.

[Vampire King's Heart detected.]

[Option: Destroy.]

[Risk: 76% chance of the Blood Gate reopening.]

[Optional: Seal.]

[Risk: The host continues to be contaminated with the blood gate.]

[Optional: Transfer the burden.]

[Target Requirement: A remnant soul that has borne the power of the Blood Gate.]

Shen Ye's eyes flickered.

A remnant soul that once bore the power of the Blood Gate.

Lu Chenzhou.

Deep within the Blood River.

Two of the blood chains binding Lu Chenzhou have loosened.

He raised his head, and the bluish light in his empty eye sockets was a little brighter than before.

It was as if they knew what Shen Ye was going to do.

The divination tablet vibrated.

Lu Chenzhou's hoarse voice rang out.

"Give me."

Lu Qingshan clenched his fist tightly on the city wall.

"The sunken ship..."

Shen Ye looked at Lu Chenzhou.

"If I take the call, you might not wake up."

Lu Chenzhou's voice was intermittent, but very steady.

"I've guarded it for ten years."

"Hold on for one more breath."

"Enough for you to kill someone."

Shen Ye remained silent for a moment.

Then he raised his hand and flung the vampire king's heart toward Lu Chenzhou.

Blood River Saint's expression changed drastically.

"You dare!"

Lu Chenzhou raised his broken hand and caught Wang Xin.

boom!

The power of the Blood Gate surged into his body.

The last few blood chains on his body lit up at the same time, but they no longer bound him.

Instead, he grabbed her hand from behind.

Lu Chenzhou let out a low roar and stood up straight for the first time.

The tattered armor fluttered in the wind.

At that moment, the top-ranked figure on the Eastern Xia King Conferment List from ten years ago seemed to have returned from the river of blood.

He looked at Shen Ye.

He only said one word.

"kill."

Shen Ye turned around.

The Blood River Saint has retreated violently.

But his shadow was still locked away by Zhu Jiu.

His blood soul mark was still being burned by Ye Yu.

His Blood River King Bat was smashed into the Blood River by Long Yuan's punch.

His escape route was pierced by the Heavenly Punishment Eye of Calamity.

Shen Ye gripped his sword.

The hole in his chest was still bleeding.

The light of the Myriad Beasts Divine Pattern also dimmed rapidly.

Three breaths have passed.

But the final strike can still be delivered.

Blood River Saint finally revealed his fear.

"Night King, you can't kill me!"

"I am the Holy Son of the Vampire Royal Court!"

Shen Ye took a step forward.

"That's not the case anymore."

The black and gold sword gleamed.

The Blood River Saint roared, and the Blood River King Bat behind him lunged back, trying to block the sword for his master.

Shen Ye did not change his tactics.

He slashed down with his sword.

The Blood River King Bat was cut in half.

The sword light, its momentum undiminished, pierced through the chest of the Blood River Saint.

The Blood River Saint stood frozen in place.

He looked down at his severed heart.

Wang Xin is no longer there.

There was only one black and gold sword mark.

Shen Ye stood in front of him, his voice calm.

"The battle is over."

The Blood River Saint's body began to disintegrate.

But just before he completely vanished, he suddenly smiled.

"The Night King..."

"The door has already remembered your blood."

Shen Ye's eyes turned slightly cold.

next moment.

The Holy Son of the Blood River was reduced to ashes.

The sound of the ancient battle monument resounded throughout the heavens and earth.

The War of the Myriad Races has ended.

[Winner: Dongxia Night King, Shen Ye.]

At the Demon-Suppressing Pass, the roar hadn't even had a chance to erupt yet.

Deep within the Night-Slaying Platform, a crack suddenly appeared in the Blood Clan King's Heart in Lu Chenzhou's hand.

Behind the Blood Gate.

The pale hand with its severed fingers pressed against the crack in the door once more.

This time, it didn't push the door open.

Instead, they knocked three times gently from inside the door.

thump.

thump.

thump.

Lu Chenzhou's expression changed drastically.

He looked up at Shen Ye, and with the last bit of his sanity, roared out two words.

"Back off!"
