Asura Mad Emperor-Chapter 612 - Punishment

As a matter of fact.

This Blood Stone was a Blood Demon Stone created by Ye Yu; within the stone, there laid a formation of the Ghost Race.

The actual purpose of this Blood Stone was to mark the souls of many.

Without anyone realizing, the formation within the Blood Stone absorbed a thread of everyone's soul. As to why Ye Yu had absorbed so many souls, Qinchuan now had some idea.

Although the Ghost Race formation was strong, Qinchuan's strongest attribute was his soul, and the formation had made a mistake targeting it. A thread of Emperor Soul had just entered the Blood Stone, taking control of the formation within.

That was why he could easily control whether or not Ji Huo'er and the others reacted when they infused mana.

As for the different colors the Blood Stone showed when absorbing mana, it wasn't too closely related to inheriting imperial fortunes, but it was related to the physique of the physical body.

The stronger or rarer the constitution, the greater the reaction of this Blood Stone would be, indicating a higher level.

There were thousands of different constitutions in the world. For example, the young girl Zhou Xi had now awakened the Taiyin Treasure Body, which could reach the 'Earth Character' response.

And some ordinary Treasured Bodies and Sacred Bodies could elicit the glow of the 'Xuan Character' Level.

Qinchuan had a unique constitution, one of a kind in the world; if he touched the Blood Stone, it was certain to show a 'Heavenly Character' Level. Ji Huo'er and Ling Xian'er, both heirs of divine legacy, also had rare constitutions and would be displayed at the 'Heavenly Character' Level as well.

Not wanting to draw too much attention, Qinchuan simply made the Blood Stone unresponsive.

Next up was Ye Xuanji.

"This old guy has reached the Great Saint Late Stage, he should at least have a sliver of a chance to achieve Great Emperorship, right?"

Many Cultivators discussed heatedly, as three successive individuals including Qinchuan showed no reaction, which made them look like a bunch of failures. This led them to question whether Ye Xuanji would also lack the opportunity to become an emperor.

Ye Xuanji pressed his palm onto the Blood Stone.

Instantly, golden light pierced the sky, its dazzling brilliance flashing ceaselessly, rising before everyone's eyes like a sun.

"This is... the 'Earth Character' Level divine radiance!"

Everyone was slightly startled, not expecting to witness another 'Earth Character' Level presence, which represented a one in a thousand chance of becoming an emperor.

The crowd's gaze towards Ye Xuanji shifted slightly.

In the eyes of many.

There was a certain gap between Ye Xuanji's 'Earth Character' Level and Zhou Duo's.

Zhou Duo was still only in the Meridian Opening Realm, and even if he sought emperorship, it would take him at least ten thousand years of cultivation, with a high likelihood of falling midway.

But Ye Xuanji was different, having become a Great Saint, the chance of perishing along the way was much smaller.

In fact, Ye Xuanji possessed the Heavenly Mystery Body, known to match Zhou Xi's constitution, hence being rated 'Earth Character' Level was no surprise.

While 'Earth Character' was rare, it wasn't so astounding as to catch Ye Yu's attention, which is why Qinchuan didn't control the Blood Stone to hide it.

"There's actually someone normal, I thought my Daoist Sect had declined, becoming entirely a haven for the useless," Zhou Duo commented dryly.

The last one was precisely who Zhou Duo and the others thought to be "The Thirteenth Young Master" Ye Shiyi.

Ye Shiyi's constitution was special, blending the bloodlines of both the Ghost Race and Human Race, which would surely evoke a 'Heavenly Character' Level response upon contact with the Blood Stone.

Therefore, Qinchuan did not hesitate at all, directly concealing the reaction of the Blood Stone.

When everyone saw that Ye Shiyi's punch elicited no response.

The crowd, just recently shocked by Ye Xuanji, couldn't help but burst into roaring laughter again.

"Hahaha, who would have thought, even the Thirteenth Young Master himself lacks the opportunity to become an emperor!"

"It seems that being useless is the trend of the main sect; genius is just the glory of the older generation," Zhou Duo stepped forward at this moment, his words dripping with mockery and derision.

Qinchuan, Ji Huo'er, Ling Xian'er, and Ye Shiyi were all from the younger generation and the Blood Stone showed no response to any of them.

```

This once again gave him the opportunity to strike at the main sect.

If he knew that among the five people, based on constitution, Ye Xuanji could only be ranked last, what would his thoughts be?

Qinchuan just felt that if the blood stone continued to show no reaction, these two Great Saints might make a fuss and report the matter.

"If you speak out of turn again, this young master doesn't mind teaching you a good lesson on behalf of the thirteenth young master."

Qinchuan cast a sidelong glance at Zhou Duo and said indifferently, since their meeting, this guy had been targeting Ye Shiyi continually.

"Who are you? I'm speaking to the thirteenth young master, what right do you have to interrupt..."

His eyes met Qinchuan's, and before he could finish his sentence, he suddenly felt the environment around him drastically change.

Endless skeletons revealed themselves all around, with severed limbs and blood flowing like rivers, as if he had been suddenly transported into an endless purgatory.

All around, blood-colored ghostly qi diffused, congealing into aggressive Asuras with fierce fangs and claws, surging towards Zhou Duo.

"This... where is this, help... save me!"

His body trembled uncontrollably, a display of extreme fear, his soul had fallen into the boundless Illusion Realm.

Qinchuan's Innate Pupils operated, administering a small punishment to him.

However, Qinchuan had no intention of taking his life, and in an instant, he pulled Zhou Duo back from the Illusion Realm.

To the outside, although it was only for an instant, Zhou Duo had already spent several days in the Illusion Realm.

His spirit had suffered immense devastation.

Zhou Duo felt as though he had been chased by demons for days on end in purgatory, and during those days, he was in a constant state of trepidation.

Suddenly pulled back to reality, he immediately realized that all of it was Qinchuan's doing.

He staggered back several steps, then sat down on the ground with a plop.

"You... you... you're a devil!"

The people around looked at each other in confusion, not understanding what had happened, Zhou Duo's behavior was too bizarre.

A moment ago, Zhou Duo was still aggressively chastising Qinchuan, but the next, he was as if he had seen a ghost, uttering these words.

In fact, Qinchuan's act of pulling him into the Illusion Realm had all occurred in the blink of an eye.

Nobody in the scene had reacted in time, not even the many powerful Great Saints had noticed that just a moment ago, Zhou Duo had spent several days trapped in the Illusion Realm.

"You... you're a devil!"

Zhou Duo, like a man possessed, hid behind a Great Saint Realm Early Stage Protector, repeating this line over and over.

Although they were unsure of what happened, even a fool could tell that Qinchuan had just made a move on Zhou Duo.

"How did he make his move? How come I didn't see it clearly?" At that moment, some spectators asked in amazement.

Although Qinchuan's target was just a Meridian Opening Realm Cultivator, they still couldn't make out how Qinchuan had made his move, which greatly surprised them.

"I don't know, could it have been a soul technique?" a Cultivator guessed.

"Impossible, that kid is merely in the early stages of Dragon Transformation. If he had used a soul technique, how could we not notice it?"

A Cultivator argued.

"You brat from the main sect, what have you done? Even if he is a cultivator from the Dragon Transformation Realm, you dare to shamelessly make a move against a junior of your own sect?"

Zhou Duo's protector, named Pang Bo, had a surging aura and stared at Qinchuan with an unfriendly look as he shouted.

"If I had really taken it seriously, by now he would have become a corpse. If you too are ignorant of what is good for you, I wouldn't mind teaching you a lesson as well," Qinchuan said seriously.

"You little...," Pang Bo's eyes flashed with cold light, his hands were gathering Divine Skills, wanting to discipline this insolent main sect youngster.

Just then, a cold voice sounded again, lofty and detached.
