178: Exploring the Blood Lake, Chen Sichen's Opportunity

Lin Yulian was very worried. Fourth Brother was at the very front. Even if his spiritual power wouldn't run out, continuously using the secret technique to control the sword soul grass would still exhaust his Divine Sense!

Lin Yucheng's expression was normal. When his spiritual power was almost half depleted, he took out a thousand-year purple jade fruit and directly put it into his mouth.

He ate it whole in a few bites, like gnawing on an apple.

"This..."

The Loose Cultivators cried out in surprise, "This is a thousand-year spirit fruit, and it's just being used to restore spiritual power?"

Under the energy supply of the thousand-year spirit fruit, Lin Yucheng's spiritual power recovered extremely quickly. He continuously unleashed the Sword Shadow Dividing Light Technique, completely unconcerned about the consumption of his spiritual power.

Chen Sichen saw Lin Yucheng's extravagance and thought to himself, "If I also had this thousand-year spirit fruit to restore my spiritual power, I could continuously cast the Fire Rain Technique."

If that were the case, he could kill many Red-Eyed Demon Corpses and surely increase his prestige in Qingyang.

"Spiritual power can be restored with spirit fruits, but his secret technique obviously consumes a lot of Divine Sense. Divine Sense isn't that easy to recover, is it?"

Chen Sichen then thought.

There weren't many ways to restore Divine Sense in a short period of time; this was basically a consensus in the Cultivation world.

Lin Yucheng did feel mentally fatigued. He continuously used the Sword Shadow Dividing Light Technique, especially when controlling the leaves of the sword soul grass, which consumed an astonishing amount of Divine Sense.

However, he took out a few tea leaves from his Storage Pouch.

As he held the tea leaves in his mouth, his mind became clearer, and his overused Divine Sense quickly recovered.

"Ah, this..."

Chen Sichen then realized that the Lin Family was a Cultivation Family that had risen to prominence through planting spiritual plants.

Especially the Cloud Mist Tea plant on Cloud Mist Mountain, which had already grown for over six hundred years.

Cloud Mist Tea leaves had the effect of restoring Divine Sense.

It was just that Chen Sichen found it strange. Judging from the Cloud Mist Tea leaves Lin Yucheng took out, the spiritual essence contained within them should be from a plant much older than six hundred years, at least a thousand years old.

Lin Yucheng continuously unleashed the Sword Shadow Dividing Light Technique, practically going berserk.

Red-Eyed Demon Corpses kept falling.

geng metal qi truly lived up to its reputation for extreme sharpness; killing these second-order Red-Eyed Demon Corpses was not difficult.

However, the characteristic of Red-Eyed Zombies was that they were fearless and had tenacious life.

Even if geng metal qi cut off half of its body, as long as its vital parts were not harmed, it could still move with half a body.

The entire battle lasted for more than half an hour before all the Red-Eyed Demon Corpses were killed.

The vast majority of them died at Lin Yucheng's hands; the other Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivators contributed very little.

When all the Red-Eyed Demon Corpses were killed, Lin Yumo stepped forward and directly said, "All these Red-Eyed Demon Corpses were killed by my Fourth Brother, so all the Materials on the Demon Corpses should belong to our Lin Family. Does anyone have any objections?"

Regardless of whether they were Loose Cultivators or disciples from other Families, they all dared not speak.

They wanted these Materials, but they also felt that they hadn't contributed much, and they knew they were no match for the Lin Family Cultivators.

But if they were told to give up directly, they were unwilling.

Chen Sichen also stepped forward and quickly smoothed things over, saying, "Of course, no problem. Without Uncle Lin's help, all of us might have died here."

He looked around, seeing the scattered Red-Eyed Demon Corpse bodies on the ground, and Chen Sichen continued, "Everyone, don't just stand there. Help clean up the battlefield. If I find anyone daring to hide anything, I will be the first to object."

If only a few people from the Lin Family were to clean up the battlefield, it would take a lot of time. Relying on the many Loose Cultivators could quickly clear the battlefield.

Of course, all the Red-Eyed Demon Corpse bodies were eventually collected into a Storage Pouch and finally handed to Lin Yucheng.

Lin Yucheng nodded slightly, also quite appreciative of Chen Sichen's actions.

Lin Yucheng said, "Let's continue forward! I wonder if there are any more Red-Eyed Demon Corpses in the forest?"

Cao Yusheng sighed and said, "I wonder if there's an exit in this forest?"

Out of fear of the unknown, they no longer wanted to continue looking for Opportunities, but rather wanted to return safely.

Chen Sichen did not want to follow the others into the forest. His attention was focused on the Blood Lake; something in the Blood Lake had been attracting him, guiding him to jump in.

"Could it be that this Opportunity is actively seeking me out?" Chen Sichen secretly rejoiced in his heart.

Chen Sichen said to Lin Yucheng, "Uncle Lin, you take everyone into the forest! I want to explore by the Blood Lake."

Lin Yucheng hesitated for a while but finally agreed to Chen Sichen. Everyone had their own considerations, and he didn't need to forcefully interfere with others.

"Okay, be careful!"

Except for Chen Sichen and a attendant beside him, the rest of the Cultivators entered the forest.

"Young Lord, do we really want to explore the Blood Lake?"

Chen Sichen's attendant was a Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivator. This middle-aged Cultivator also wanted to leave with the other Cultivators, but he had signed a death contract with the City Lord's Mansion since he was young.

If Young Lord Chen Sichen died, he would certainly not survive.

Chen Sichen slowly nodded.

After considering for a while, he gritted his teeth and jumped directly into the Blood Lake.

"Young Lord, no..."

Before the attendant could finish his words, Chen Sichen had already submerged into the Blood Lake. Only bloody bubbles were gurgling on the surface of the Blood Lake.

The attendant, with a bitter expression, pinched his nose and also jumped into the Blood Lake.

...

Deep in the Blood Pool.

"Hahahahaha..."

"My fresh Physical Body, has it finally arrived?"

Blood River Ancestor's Divine Sense was extremely powerful. He had long used mental secret techniques to guide and pretend to be an esteemed Senior to attract Chen Sichen.

As expected, Chen Sichen lacked Jianghu experience and could not resist this temptation.

As long as Blood River Ancestor used his Divine Soul to occupy Chen Sichen's body, the Possession would be successful, and he could continue to Cultivate using Chen Sichen's Physical Body.

Chen Sichen swam in the Blood Lake. The blood in the Blood Lake was not actually thick, it just had a hint of a bloody smell and did no harm to the body.

Compared to the initial blood-red light pillar, this Blood Lake water was nothing.

The attendant also came to his side, making him feel much more at ease.

After swimming for a few minutes, they saw a glimmer of light at the bottom of the lake.

"This is..."

"This is what has been attracting me!"

As Chen Sichen and the attendant approached, they saw a huge Formation base at the bottom of the lake.

At the center of the Formation base, there was a fist-sized blood-colored demonic core.

The demonic core released Devilish Qi, absorbing the surrounding blood Qi in strands.

Chen Sichen thought, "This must be a rare treasure. If I take it back, Father should be able to figure it out."

Just as Chen Sichen was about to swim forward, the attendant stopped him. He transmitted his voice underwater, "Young Lord, let me go!"

Chen Sichen nodded. There was indeed no need to take risks.

When the attendant approached the demonic core, the demonic core suddenly released a bloody light that shot directly into the attendant's brain, pulverizing it.

Blood and brain matter merged into the Blood Lake, adding a further bloody scent.

Chen Sichen's face instantly turned pale. If he had been the one to approach the demonic core just now, would he have met the same fate?
