Global Catastrophe: I Begin to Evolve from an Ancient Tree-Chapter 321: The Presence Within the Forbidden Land

Chapter 321: Chapter 321: The Presence Within the Forbidden Land

Blood Transformation Demon Sect.

Now, this once top-tier Demonic Sect is filled with an oppressive atmosphere; many disciples show a trace of anxiety and unease on their faces.

"Report to the sect, in these last few days, quite a number of disciples and two steward elders have secretly left the sect and are nowhere to be found!"

The speaker was an elder of the Blood Transformation Demon Sect, named Chang Yin, one of the few surviving Void Refining Stage masters in the sect now.

Upon hearing this, the Blood Transformation Ancestor’s gaze turned icy: "Issue a bounty order, anyone betraying the sect must pay the price. If their whereabouts are discovered, anyone related to them will be executed without exception!"

"Yes!"

Chang Yin nodded.

As a person of Demon Dao, he didn’t find the words of the Blood Transformation Ancestor to be wrong at all.

As the other had said, anyone betraying the Blood Transformation Demon Sect must pay the corresponding price.

The Blood Transformation Ancestor remarked: "In the past, when the Blood Transformation Demon Sect was at its peak, these individuals eagerly joined the sect. Now seeing our decline, they want to withdraw promptly; how could there be such reasoning in the world."

Speaking of this.

The expression on the Blood Transformation Ancestor’s face grew increasingly indifferent.

The battle with the Cyan Yang Divine Court.

Several Tribulation Stage powerhouses from the Taiyuan Realm have fallen.

Among them.

Was a member of the Blood Transformation Demon Sect.

As a top Demon Dao sect, the Blood Transformation Demon Sect naturally had a Tribulation Stage powerhouse overseeing it.

However, compared to forces like the Immortal King Sect, the foundation of the Blood Transformation Demon Sect was thin, with only one Tribulation Stage presence.

Now that one has fallen.

The Blood Transformation Ancestor no longer has a Tribulation Stage powerhouse to hold the situation together.

If not for the threat of the Cyan Yang Divine Court, other Demon Dao forces would have likely risen collectively to attack, possibly dividing the entire Blood Transformation Demon Sect until nothing remained.

This is the cruelty of the cultivation world.

If the Righteous Dao must consider some degree of face in actions, the Demon Dao acts without concern for face, fully showcasing survival of the fittest.

In the past, the Blood Transformation Demon Sect had a Tribulation Stage Supreme Elder in charge, offending many forces, and occupying many resources.

Now with the Supreme Elder fallen, these things have become death warrants.

Only the current threat of the Cyan Yang Divine Court keeps the attention of the Taiyuan Realm’s cultivators focused on the Cyan Yang Divine Court, preventing them from inciting internal conflict rashly.

Otherwise.

How could the Blood Transformation Demon Sect maintain the current peace?

But even so.

The decline of the Blood Transformation Demon Sect is a fact.

If new Tribulation Stage cultivators do not emerge to support the situation, then one day the Blood Transformation Demon Sect will be destroyed.

"Convey my order, instruct all disciples to speed up the collection of Essence Blood, next I will enter seclusion for a period to reach the peak of Void Refining!"

The Blood Transformation Ancestor said solemnly.

Hearing this, Chang Yin immediately accepted the order and withdrew.

As Chang Yin departed, the Blood Transformation Ancestor’s figure also vanished from the hall.

...

Within the forbidden ground of the Blood Transformation Demon Sect.

The figure of the Blood Transformation Ancestor abruptly appeared.

Only to see him take out the Sect Master’s token, all restrictions instantly lifted, allowing the Blood Transformation Ancestor to step in steadily before the restrictions reappeared behind him.

At the bottom of the forbidden ground.

There stood an Ancient Tower.

The Ancient Tower, seemingly forged from bronze, was less than a hundred feet high, exuding a chilling aura.

When the Blood Transformation Ancestor arrived, the bronze Ancient Tower trembled slightly, and a hoarse, eerie voice suddenly resonated in the silent forbidden ground.

"How are you considering last time’s proposal, have you decided to release me? As long as you can help me break the seal, I will grant you the power to control the entire Taiyuan Realm!" 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

Regarding this voice.

The complexion of the Blood Transformation Ancestor was changeable.

This was not his first time here, and he was well-aware of the existence within the forbidden ground of the Blood Transformation Demon Sect.

According to the records of the Blood Transformation Demon Sect, within this forbidden ground’s Ancient Tower, lies a world-dominating demon sealed inside.

However, due to the energy emanating from it, greatly beneficial for Demon Dao cultivation, the ancestors of the Blood Transformation Demon Sect established the sect here.

Yet, the origins of this world-dominating demon remain unknown to anyone.

But one thing is certain, the bronze Ancient Tower itself is a top-tier treasure, and the demon sealed inside is by no means a common existence.

If this world-dominating demon breaks the seal and emerges, it very likely could destroy the entire Blood Transformation Demon Sect.

After all.

The Blood Transformation Demon Sect relies on it for its existence, in a way, akin to being parasitic upon it.

Therefore.

Generations of Blood Transformation Demon Sect ancestors have warned never to open the seal of the bronze Ancient Tower, nor release the world-dominating demon.

Otherwise.

The Blood Transformation Demon Sect will undoubtedly face annihilation.

Of course.

The sealing power within the bronze Ancient Tower is exceptionally strong.

According to the estimations of Blood Transformation Demon Sect’s past masters, in its prime, breaking this seal might have required a top-tier Mahayana Stage powerhouse.

Even having weathered the passage of time, the sealing power is not to be underestimated.

After a long while.

The Blood Transformation Ancestor said: "I humbly ask, what is your true identity, and why are you sealed here?"

"Hehe, my identity is not something you can comprehend now. If I told you, you would surely die.

As long as you release the seal, I can return to my peak, and then helping you unify a small Taiyuan Realm would be merely a minor issue."

The voice remained eerie, filled with indescribable temptation.

The Blood Transformation Ancestor slowly said: "The Blood Transformation Demon Sect relies on your existence, and has benefited from your grace over the years. It is only right to unseal you.

Unfortunately, my capabilities are too weak to break the seal. Even if I wanted to help unseal you, I’m unable to do so."

"This matter is simple; I shall pass you a piece of top-tier Secret Techniques, once you have mastered it, you can return to unseal me."

"In that case, many thanks to you, senior!"

The Blood Transformation Ancestor bowed in salute.

After he spoke.

The entire forbidden ground suddenly fell silent.

Immediately after.

The bronze Ancient Tower slightly trembled, seemingly exuding black mist, while the canopy unknowingly became saturated with a dense crimson color.

The top-tier experts of the entire Taiyuan Realm suddenly felt an ominous premonition, as if something terrible was about to occur.

This mutation.

Caused all top-tier experts to change their expressions.

Master Gu Ming of the Immortal King Sect, who was preparing to enter seclusion to gather strength and attempt a breakthrough to the Mahayana Stage, now also appeared solemn.

At once.

Master Gu Ming calculated with his fingers, attempting to deduce the celestial secrets, yet to no avail as they were obscured, leaving him with no result.

This situation made Master Gu Ming increasingly heavy-hearted.

"First the invasion of the Cyan Yang Divine Court, now this unknown change, truly a turbulent time for the Taiyuan Realm. Without a breakthrough to the Mahayana Stage, it will be challenging to escape unscathed during the great tribulation.

This time in seclusion, I am determined to successfully break through.

Otherwise, once the great tribulation further unfolds, the next to perish might very well be myself!"

For the sake of the Immortal King Sect’s legacy and for himself, he had to break through to the Mahayana Stage.

With this resolve.

Master Gu Ming closed his eyes, beginning his secluded retreat to breakthrough.
