I Can See Your Combat Power

When the Nine-tailed Fox King once again focused his divine consciousness on Tang Luo, he saw him, along with two girls, heading towards the southern palace, walking with steady steps, neither too fast nor too slow.

Outside the Buried Palace, tens of thousands of blood beasts had gathered, dividing the Minor Spiritual Realm into two worlds: one of blue skies and white clouds and the other, a crimson Blood Prison.

A myriad of ferocious roars, along with the soaring bloody energy, painted the entire south in shades of red. Three blood dragons, with their massive red eyes, were staring intently at their approaching visitors.

The girls, who seemed to have just figured out the triumphant strategy against the blood beasts, were greatly shocked in their hearts when they faced the overwhelming horde before them.

As Tang Luo led the girls closer and closer, they could no longer observe the full scale of the beast tide in their line of sight. All they could see was an endless expanse of blood. The pungent scent of blood was so strong that they dared not breathe deeply, wishing they could hold their breath in this manner as they entered the palace.

When the trio approached the blood dragons, Tang Luo looked up at the void and said, “Demon King, I have arrived.”

Demon King’s phantom barely replied, “You are the bravest human I’ve ever seen.”

The Demon King could only sense the Mortal Realm spiritual energy from Tang Luo, even though he apparently had a strong physical body. He was now less than a hundred feet away from the blood dragons. Even the courage he was demonstrating did not stop the Demon King from praising him.

Just then, the three blood dragons issued a dragon chant together. Their hundred-feet-long bodies entwined with each other, transforming their bloody energy into a huge face that blocked the sun, appearing as a manifestation of the Blood God. He guffawed at the three smaller humans, “Let me get a good look at you, are you the one who plans to enter the palace?!”

The Demon King had invested his divine consciousness in the spirit spring, causing the two Demon Kings to argue. The Nine-tailed Fox King felt that they shouldn’t deceive a member of the younger generations with such despicable tricks.

However, the Blood God felt there was nothing guilty about taking advantage of those who were too foolish to see through the trap.

The Han Family’s palace was a treasure trove and a Soul-Binding Formation merged with the Realm Heart, but the Nine-tailed Fox Demon was already one with the Realm Heart. He was the true guardian spirit of the realm, and although the Soul-Binding Formation suppressed his supernatural powers, he could still do two things.

One was to cast his spirit from any place in the Minor Spiritual Realm; the other was that he could control the gates and mechanisms within the palace, which was the strength of the real guardians of the realm. Even though he was extremely weak now, these two tasks came naturally to him.

Under the original plan, once Tang Luo was tricked into the palace, the Nine-tailed Fox King would activate the palace’s traps to drive everyone out. Even though the traps had no effect on a person like Tang Luo who had a strong physical body, they would be lethal to the others in the palace. As long as they were driven out and the entrance was closed, Tang Luo and the others would be besieged by tens of thousands of Blood Slaves, with no chance of survival.

But due to Tang Luo’s respect for the Nine-tailed Fox Demon, the Demon King altered this plan. Since he promised to let him go after a month, the Nine-tailed Fox Demon would not use any tricks during this month. The palace would be a truly safe place.

About one month later, the Demon King would let Tang Luo leave. Regardless of the Blood God’s intentions to pursue and massacre him then, he would not interfere.

This was the first time in a thousand years that the two great demons argued over others. The Blood God always felt that they should hate the Human Race to the bone for trapping his old friend a thousand years ago, but now, it seemed, he greatly appreciated Tang Luo. It was hard to imagine that even with the remnants of his soul, his old friend’s affectionate and kind nature hadn’t changed.

That’s why the Blood God made a personal appearance and negotiated with Tang Luo, trying to see what his plan was. He was afraid his old friend might be fooled by the human race again.

The three blood dragons fused to form a bloody face with a value of 60,000, emitting a more violent aura than that of a Fierce Realm expert. From the moment it appeared, Tang Fengran and Tang Zhen felt a sea of blood flooding their brains and lost their senses, standing still.

Tang Luo wasn’t doing much better. His Star Core desperately wanted to gather all the spiritual energy from the star seeds to resist the furious pressure. If it hadn’t been for his sanity at the moment, he might have revealed his true level of cultivation.

The two Demon Kings didn’t have to fear a human with the Mortal Realm cultivation and a strong body, but they would definitely not let go of a warrior possessing the unity of spirit and intent as well as a strong body. So Tang Luo clenely clung on to his senses, desperately controlling the turmoil of spiritual power in his star seeds.

“Enough!” an aged voice stopped the Blood God’s rampant pressure. This month’s peace was his concession for appreciating Tang Luo, something he didn’t want his old friend to ruin. As for what would happen after a month, it all depended on what they could do for themselves.

Considering the tens of thousands of Blood Slaves, he did not believe that these living beings, who couldn’t even withstand the pressure, had a chance of survival. Sighing at the impending demise of a brave human warrior, the Demon King mused sympathetically, “Old friend, let us pass.”

The Blood God, watching the three people reeling under his pressure, laughed, “Please, go ahead.”

Ever since his old friend mentioned that the human had readily agreed to enter the palace, he wondered if there was something mysterious inside to rely on. That’s why he showed himself at the cost of a large amount of blood, to confirm a few things. No matter how powerful the Divine Armor and holy weapons were, they needed the practitioner himself to provide enough spiritual energy to control them. The three people who couldn’t even stand up to the pressure would certainly prove to be lambs to the slaughter.

When the Blood God withdraws his pressure, the weight of a thousand pounds suddenly lifted. The two girls fell to the ground with trembling legs, their eyes filled with fear and panting incessantly.

Tang Luo didn’t look so good either. Just a moment ago, he was close to his limit. If the Demon King hadn’t called to stop, he would have triggered his cultivation level, used his strongest killing method to try to destroy the bloody face, and carried the two girls into the palace.

Luckily, it didn’t come to the worst. Tang Luo let out a sigh of relief and helped the two clan sisters up.

Amidst the dense crowd of beasts, a passage appeared wide enough for three people to walk through. The end of the road was the main entrance of the palace, with all kinds of blood beasts roaring on both sides. Just looking from afar gave one a feeling of terror.

This was clearly a road to the Blood Prison, not just any passage.

Tang Luo looked back at his two clan sisters. The two girls hadn’t yet regained their sanity from the earlier onslaught, staring blankly as if they had lost their souls.

Even the seemingly capable Tang Fengran was looking helpless and miserable.

“Women, they are so troublesome,” Tang Luo muttered, picked up the two clan sisters, one on each shoulder, and walked briskly towards the Road to the Blood Prison..
