The sword seller, dressed in red, deserves applause for the prankster.

The ferocious beast patterns on the walls surrounding the Bloodline Temple suddenly opened their mouths wide, spewing out hundreds of blood jets that poured into the hundreds of hands of the stone Buddha.

His enormous stone hand twisted, like a bowl, scooping up all the blood and turning it into a pool of blood.

The blood pool rippled, its aura identical to that of the blood vein spring from before, and ferocious beast phantoms roared above it, seemingly unwilling to meet such an end.

Everyone was startled.

"They're all Bloodline Springs, and in such large quantities?"

"Not only are their numbers terrifying, but their aura is also more intense and powerful than before. Just standing next to them and watching can make you feel a scorching heat..."

The ferocious beast phantom above still seemed to be intimidating everyone.

This means that all these blood springs are filled with fresh blood.

The stone Buddha chuckled, "Making a fuss over nothing."

"The Bloodline Spring is the most precious treasure of my Bloodline Temple. We have as many as we want, it's not a rare thing. Why are you all so surprised?"

"These two rounds of tests are very simple. You only need to soak in the blood pool for one hour to pass."

That simple?!

"Yes, it's that simple. Who wants to go first?"

Everyone looked at Chi Miao, their eyes practically pointing arrows at her, declaring, "It's you we've decided!"

"Why are you all looking at me like that?" Chi Miao was completely baffled, then grinned at the stone Buddha: "This bloodline pool must be something special, right?"

If only the lower half of the stone Buddha was in the Bloodline Temple, everyone would have seen the stone Buddha roll its eyes in a sarcastic manner.

"I have no idea."

Chi Miao: "That's it."

Stone Buddha: "...Yes, yes, yes, I've got you all figured out."

"But so what? Even if we know that this Bloodline Spring is special, we can only grit our teeth and go in... or we can only turn around and give up."

"Or are you planning to sacrifice someone?"

"I think... that fair-skinned, delicate-faced young man is quite nice."

He was referring to Ying Wuhuo.

It seems that this stone Buddha has some objections to Wuhuo's actions.

Ying Wuhuo frowned; clearly, he hadn't done anything.

Stone Buddha commented: "Being boring is the original sin."

Jingming nodded again.

Is such that.

Ying Wuhuo: "..."

He exhaled a breath of fresh air and walked towards one of the bloodline springs.

Chi Miao drew her Weeping Sword and blocked his path with one hand: "What are you doing?"

Ying Wuhuo: "Someone has to go in and try it, right? I don't mind... I have an extremely yin constitution by nature, and I have a certain resistance to any medicinal bath, so I am indeed the most suitable person to go."

"Of course some people want to go in and try," Chi Miao said, both amused and exasperated. Then her gaze fell on a wall behind her. "But we don't need to come."

Since there are already hundreds of bloodline springs here, there's no need to worry about the quota anymore.

Laboratory mice... she has someone else in mind for that position.

Everyone watched as Chi Miao walked unhurriedly to the wall, placed one hand on it, and the earth-attribute golden core... that is, the golden core with the mountain pattern, appeared beside her.

She said:

"May Ksitigarbha protect us, as the stars shift and the constellations change."

As soon as he finished speaking, the golden core emitted light, and spiritual power quickly covered the entire wall of the Bloodline Temple.

In the blink of an eye, the stone wall disappeared from sight.

A large group of strange creatures appeared in their field of vision, including demons and beastmen.

The one at the very front was the Soul-Devouring Serpent Young Master, whose tail had been cut in half by Chi Miao.

They had been eavesdropping against this wall, but the wall was so soundproof that they could only hear a few very loud noises.

Therefore, they lay down very hard, and without the support of the wall, they fell one after another like dominoes being pushed over.

"what!"

"Ah!"

"Aaaaaah!"

The Prodigy Group: "..."

No, are you guys really that perverted?

Stone Buddha: "...?"

What is this for?

Chi Miao suddenly lifted his foot and took a step forward.

All living beings trembled in fright and quickly stood up straight, assuming a fighting stance.

"What...what do you want to do? We haven't done anything yet!"

Just kidding, they've already seen Chi Miao's methods, and nobody wants to be cannon fodder.

Chi Miao bowed deeply, her attitude extremely sincere, and added in a very loud voice, "I'm sorry!"

Everyone: "???"

what?

Is Chi Miao apologizing?

Are they dreaming? Or has the world suddenly gone mad?

Even living beings don't understand.

Chi Miao then raised his head, moving so fast that he left afterimages as he moved towards the young master of the Soul-Devouring Serpent, grabbing two of his scales with unbelievable enthusiasm.

There must be a reason for this unusual situation. What's the difference between Chi Miao's enthusiasm and being poured with lava?

Especially since the young master of the Soul-Devouring Serpent had just had his tail cut off by her, he was so frightened that he almost jumped up.

"What...what are you doing! I...I'm telling you, I'm not afraid of you. I'm almost at the Nascent Soul stage. If you do anything reckless, I...I..."

"It's all a misunderstanding!" Chi Miao interrupted it.

Young Master of the Soul-Devouring Serpent: "Huh?"

Chi Miao's eyes were filled with sincerity as he spoke righteously, "Actually, it was all a misunderstanding just now. It was that demon woman who sowed discord. I have long heard of your reputation, the young master of the snake clan, the future king of the snake clan, and even the future king of the entire beast clan!"

"Under normal circumstances, how could I dare to offend you? I'm not stupid, am I?"

Apart from Chi Miao, all the sentient beings present stared wide-eyed and gaped, their minds completely blank.

Sister, what are you up to now?

Chi Miao didn't give them any time to think, and continued, "We actually discovered the secret of the Bloodline Temple a long time ago, and we know that the Bloodline Spring just now was fake. We only resorted to this tactic to force that demon woman to retreat, and we didn't hesitate to cut off your tail."

"But what am I doing all this for? I'm doing it for you! That demon woman is at the Nascent Soul stage. With her around, how can you possibly have a share of this Bloodline Spring?"

"Now that the woman is gone, it's just us. Only now do I dare to show you the truth about the Bloodline Spring."

"Really...really? Is everything you're saying true?"

The young master of the Soul-Devouring Serpent was starting to get a little carried away, and he began to think that what Chi Miao said made sense.

The demon race has a bad reputation for a long time. Even if you agree to join forces, you never know when they might betray you.

They never dared to fully believe in the demons.

But... it was still because of that woman, Feng Mian, that they suffered heavy losses.

Looking back now, that woman certainly didn't seem like the type to leave them an heirloom.

What Chi Miao said now makes sense.

Its faith began to waver, and Chi Miao delivered the final blow: "Of course it's true, absolutely true! The beast race is now unstoppable and at the height of its power, and the snake race is the closest to the former overlord, the dragon race."

"Look at your figure! Exquisite lines! Who wouldn't be captivated by your charm? If you were to soak in this Bloodline Spring, your bloodline would revert to its ancestral state, wouldn't you instantly become a dragon? If I'm lying even a little bit, I'm no good!"

Chi Miao's words completely flattered the young master of the Soul-Devouring Serpent, making him feel lightheaded.

It sounds nice, I love listening to it, I'll listen to it a lot.

"Alright! Alright, alright! I trust you. We're allied with you. From now on, we're good allies! You can use my team as you please. By the way... what exactly is the secret of the Bloodline Spring you mentioned?"

"Hey!" Chi Miao's smile deepened, and he lowered his head, looking timid and hesitant, his mouth almost stretching to his ears.

"Please come with me, Colonel, please come inside."
