Chapter 372: Chapter 219 Southern Desolate? Southern Desolate!_2 Chapter 372: Chapter 219 Southern Desolate? Southern Desolate!_2 In a coastal area, within a cave.
A flash of red light, and Su Ping’s figure appeared in the cave.
After gaining control over the Blood God.
Su Ping learned almost all the inherited knowledge of the Blood God Sect.
Among this knowledge, there was a mention of a Blood God Seal.
This was a Secret Treasure specially refined after opening the Blood God Secret Realm.
By obtaining recognition from this seal, one could take the Blood God Secret Realm into the Blood God Seal and carry it around!
This meant that Su Ping could take this secret realm back to Water Blue Star to face the Abyss Challenge.
However, during the time of the second generation Sect Hierarch of the Blood God Sect, the seal was stolen during a siege.
Fortunately, those who snatched it did not possess the Blood God Secret Method, and being unable to use this special Secret Treasure, they had no choice but to keep it as a collector’s item, better than nothing.
Over a thousand years, this Secret Treasure changed hands among various forces due to various accidents.
The successive Sect Hierarchs had thought of reclaiming this matching Secret Treasure.
But they increasingly found themselves willing, yet unable.
Because the Blood God, the ultimate trump card of the Blood God Sect, had undergone a qualitative change over time, becoming more and more difficult to control.
Engaging in battle with the Blood God’s Body became a mutually destructive affair.
Even the Sect Hierarch and elders tried as much as possible to avoid battles necessitating the Blood God’s Body’s involvement, lest they lose control and prematurely sacrifice themselves for the Blood God Sect…
“They dare not use the power of the Blood God.”
“But I have no such concern, at worst I’ll just stop using it when it’s about to go out of control, then return to Water Blue Star to fetch more Blood Qi Souls and Blood Chains!”
“Besides, if I want to reclaim the Blood God Seal, it’s best to act swiftly to avoid complications.”
“According to the memories within the Blood God inheritance, the deterioration of the Southern Desolate is even worse than many imagine.”
“If the Southern Desolate completely falls, or even sinks directly into the outer world… that would be troublesome!”
Su Ping immediately called upon the Blood God as a Sect Hierarch, then used the Blood God Secret Technique to locate the position of the Blood God Seal.
As expected, the Blood God Seal was somewhere in the Southern Desolate.
Su Ping recalled what he knew about the Southern Desolate.
The Southern Desolate, after the outbreak of the Evil Qi Tide, could be called a lawless land overrun with demons.
Especially in the past two years, various sects, large and small, from the Southern Desolate ran to the Central Domain for refuge.
The Southern Desolate was left without any rules.
Evil Spirits, Demon Path, non-righteous people, and various sects of the Incense Fire Divine Path were mixed up together.
They were constantly fighting over the increasingly scarce cultivation resources or population.
And this was the Southern Desolate before the Blood God Sect fled.
To cultivators, this time might not seem very long.
But against the backdrop of accelerated invasion by Evil Qi.
This period was enough for a significant deterioration in the environment.
Su Ping used a Communication Jade Scroll to leave a message for the Nine Leaf Mountain Workshop and the managers living in the Overseas Islands.
Then he called forth a gourd, sat on it, and after his late-period Foundation Establishment Mana circulated, the gourd erupted like a jet plane.
Spewing out a pale blue flame from its mouth, it carried Su Ping as a streak of red light towards the distance.
There are many dangerous places between Southern Desolate and Central Domain.
Those lacking experience might get lost in places like the Alien Insect Mist, Deadly Poison Gas, etc., and faced with total annihilation of both body and Divine Soul.
Some areas are rumored to house Evil Spirits comparable to Golden Core cultivators.
For the vast majority of cultivators.
Only by traveling together on a large Immortal Boat can they ensure a high probability of safety.
However, as the environment deteriorated, larger sects from the Southern Desolate had mostly fled.
The frequency of Immortal Boats traveling between Southern Desolate and Central Domain also significantly decreased.
And the dangers increased, even large Immortal Boats started to encounter disasters resulting in the loss of both the ship and lives on board.
In the Immortal Sect Territory of the Southern Desolate, a vast expanse of Mist Jungle lay ten thousand meters in the sky.
Three large Immortal Boats between seven hundred and nine hundred meters in length were proceeding with caution.
These three large Immortal Boats, because of the hurried departure, were inadequately prepared.
Lacking large equipment for detecting hidden dangers and experienced captains.
But they had no choice but to leave.
The departure city, Sky Sword City, encountered a surge of Evil Spirits that they could not resist, forcing them to set sail for refuge ahead of time.
And then, disastrously, an Evil Cultivator infiltrated the leading Immortal Boat!
They could only watch helplessly as that Immortal Boat fell from the sky and then disappeared into the billowing black fog that rose from the city, unable to send out even the slightest response.
At the deck of an Immortal Boat.
An old man with a troubled face stood with a young boy and girl by his side, anxiously gazing into the distance.
These three were a grandfather and grandchildren, from a small sect in the Southern Desolate subordinate to the Sky Sword Sect.
Because they specialized in Artifact Refining, their sect usually lived comfortably.
During the relocation of the Sky Sword Sect, they had been promised early on that they would be relocated out of the Southern Desolate.
But they had been waiting until now.
If it weren’t for the Sect Leader thinking that waiting any longer would lead to their destruction, leading the disciples to the Immortal Boat port in Sky Sword City, and then spending all their wealth to buy tickets.
Otherwise, the entire sect might have perished in the Evil Spirit catastrophe that erupted in the city… with truly nowhere to be buried!
This genuinely terrified them.
Even after two days had passed, they dared not stay in the cabin, preferring to stay on deck so they could escape at the first sign of trouble!
Aside from the grandfather and grandchildren, the deck also hosted other people with similar thoughts, either standing or sitting.
Deacon Luo from the Southern Desolate Commerce, which the Immortal Boat belonged to, observed these people’s reactions.
But in his heart, he felt that these people were really overthinking it.
