(5 updates) Qinghe heard Lin Bai’s direct agreement and let out a laugh, filled with satisfaction.
“Lin Bai, do you know the origin of the Miracle Ridge?” Qinghe pondered for a moment before asking Lin Bai.
Lin Bai was surprised upon hearing this and immediately asked, “I know a little, but I didn’t know what the Red Immortal Sect was all about before?”
“Senior Qinghe, before I had encountered the spirit artifact of the Red Immortal Sect, it said that our Sky-swallowing Clan owed the Red Immortal Sect…, what’s this all about?”
Qinghe let out a cold laugh, “Owe them?
Hehe, they really have no shame!”
“Alright, Lin Bai, I’ll start from the beginning for you.”
Lin Bai held his breath in anticipation, listening attentively right away.
Qinghe spoke indifferently, “Back then, when I left my clan to gain experience, I was betrayed by a friend, which exposed my whereabouts and identity.
Afterwards, the Giant God Clan came looking for me, and I had a great battle with them, but it was because we were coincidentally in a place with weak spatial fabric.”
“My battle with the Giant God shattered space, and both he and I were swept into the chaos of the Void!”
“Fortunately, within the chaos of the Void, I took the opportunity to slay him, cutting off the head of the Giant God, but at that time, because I was eager to kill this Giant God, I had no time to defend myself and was injured by the chaotic flows of the Void.”
“Later, because of the battle with the Giant God, I was already severely wounded, and then, being in the chaos of the Void only made my injuries worse.
After arriving in this realm, I was on the verge of death.”
“My corpse and that of the Giant God emerged from the chaotic flows of the Void and fell into your realm!”
“The God’s corpse lay across the Territory of all nations, thus forming the Miracle Ridge!”
“At that time, I should have died, but to my surprise, I discovered that the Blood of the Giant God contained a very special curse mark.
After the God’s corpse fell, new beings were born from the Divine Blood, harming this world!”
“If I did not intervene, this place would surely be slaughtered by these new beings!”
“This is the origin of it all.”
Qinghe said indifferently.
Hearing this, Lin Bai asked curiously, “The new beings born from the Divine Blood you mentioned, are they the monsters I encountered on Blood Mountain before?”
“What exactly are those monsters?”
Lin Bai asked curiously.
Qinghe replied, “You can call them Blood Fiends!”
“Blood Fiends are born within the Divine Blood of the Giant God Clan!”
“Hehe, Lin Bai, you should know that our Sky-swallowing Clan’s Martial Soul can cultivate by devouring the blood of Warriors and Demon Blood, and in the All Heavens and Myriad Realms, there are many special types of Divine Blood that are a great fortuity for our cultivation!”
“And the Divine Blood of the Giant God Clan is one of the most beneficial for the cultivation of the Sky-swallowing Clan among the All Heavens and Myriad Realms!”
“First, because the Giant Gods are huge, their bodies measuring nearly ten thousand zhang in height, they have an abundance of Divine Blood within them!”
“Second, the Giant Gods have infinite strength, able to pick stars with their hands and shake seas with their feet, with the power inside their Divine Blood being extremely potent!”
“Hence, the Giant God Clan dreaded the power of the Sky-swallowing Clan’s Martial Soul and thus launched wars, frantically pursuing and killing members of the Sky-swallowing Clan.
Although there are still members of the Sky-swallowing Clan surviving in the All Heavens and Myriad Realms today, the ones who are alive are very few!”
Qinghe paused at this point, and then continued, “Back then, in order to contain the power of the Martial Soul of the Sky-swallowing Clan and prevent them from cultivating by consuming the Divine Blood of the Giant God Clan!”
“Thus, they created a strange curse mark!
Named the Burial God Curse!”
“This curse mark, engraved in the Divine Blood of the Giant Gods, would immediately mutate once a Giant God died, and from every drop of Divine Blood, powerful Blood Fiends would be born!”
“This is the origin of the Blood Fiends.”
“If you have encountered Blood Fiends before, you should be clear that they are fierce and terrifying, their blood contains potent poison, which upon being devoured, corrodes the essence, energy, and spirit of the Warrior, as well as the power of the Divine Soul!”
“With the Burial God Curse in place, the Sky-swallowing Clan couldn’t consume the Divine Blood even if they killed members of the Giant God Clan!”
Surprised by this, Lin Bai asked, “Senior, if the Burial God Curse exists, then the Giant God Clan should be safe, right?
Why then do the Giant Gods still insist on persecuting the Sky-swallowing Clan relentlessly?”
Qinghe laughed and said, “Do you think the Burial God Curse comes without side effects?”
“The Burial God Curse contains deadly poisons gathered by the Giant God Clan from the All Heavens and Myriad Realms.
Once a Giant God is marked with the Burial God Curse, these are usually the ones with little life left, or those whose time is running out.”
“And they will spend the remaining time of their lives pursuing the Sky-swallowing Clan!”
“A Giant God marked with the Burial God Curse can live a maximum of a thousand years, after which they will surely die!
And once the Burial God Curse is engraved, it can’t be removed!”
Hearing this, Lin Bai had an epiphany: “So that’s how it is!”
A Giant God marked with the Burial God Curse could live for a thousand years!
A thousand years, for Lin Bai of the Heavenly Elixir Realm, was a very distant span of time!
But for the Giant God Clan, standing at the pinnacle of the world, a thousand years were but a snap of the fingers, merely the time it took for them to sleep.
Qinghe continued, “After I killed that member of the Giant God Clan, the Burial God Curse began to activate.
The Blood Fiends were born and started slaughtering the warriors in the Territory of all nations.
My heart couldn’t bear it…”
“But at that time, I had already died, and although I preserved a remnant soul through a secret skill, my power was ultimately weak.
It was definitely impossible for me to eradicate so many Blood Fiends!”
“Thus, I sought out a second-rate power on the continent at that time and collaborated with them!”
“They were the Red Immortal Sect!”
“At that time, the Red Immortal Sect wasn’t that powerful, merely a second-rate force that, within this realm of ants, could barely ensure its own survival!”
“I found their Sect Leader Supreme and made a deal with them!”
“I could help the Red Immortal Sect rise, but they had to help me eliminate these Blood Fiends!”
“Later on, I fulfilled my promise!”
“In just a hundred years, I made the Red Immortal Sect the most flourishing sect on the continent at that time.
In that era, the Red Immortal Sect was invincible.”
“When the Red Immortal Sect reached its zenith, the Blood Fiends became uncontrollable, emerging from the ground in their thousands.”
“I instructed the Red Immortal Sect to exterminate the Blood Fiends, but they found there were too many of them.
Even if the Red Immortal Sect exerted all its strength, it might not be able to wipe them out completely, so they wanted to give up!”
“They wanted to betray the covenant with me!”
Lin Bai, upon hearing this, his face immediately tightened, “What?”
Qinghe said with a wry smile, “Yes, the Red Immortal Sect abandoned the covenant.
They wanted to move their sect out of the East Continent, to the far south, to avoid the disaster of the Blood Fiends!”
Lin Bai urgently asked, “Then what happened…
why was the Red Immortal Sect still annihilated?”
Qinghe said with a smile, “Did they think they could leave?
How could I let them go so easily?”
“During the one hundred years of the Red Immortal Sect’s rise, I was not idle at all!”
“Within a radius of a million miles around the Red Immortal Sect, I set up a restrictive magic circle that no one in this realm could break!”
“There were two reasons for setting up this Magic Circle!”
“First, if the Red Immortal Sect was incapable of exterminating those Blood Fiends, then I would activate the Magic Circle, locking the Blood Fiends in this place so they couldn’t leave!”
“Second, if the Red Immortal Sect did not want to fulfill the covenant, then I would have no choice but to activate the Magic Circle, forcing them to go and kill the Blood Fiends!”
“As expected, I guessed the Red Immortal Sect’s little trick.
After they became the strongest sect on the continent, they went back on their word.
They also knew that with my remnant soul, I had no strength to annihilate the Red Immortal Sect, so they tore up our agreement!”
“I simply activated the Magic Circle directly, isolating these million miles of Territories!”
“This is why the Red Immortal Sect disappeared from the continent overnight!”
Qinghe said with a faint smile.
Lin Bai finally understood upon hearing this.
It was widely rumored on the Barbaric Ancient Continent that during its most prosperous period, the Red Immortal Sect vanished overnight, evaporated from the world, with no one knowing their whereabouts.
Only upon hearing Qinghe’s words did Lin Bai realize, it was Qinghe’s doing—using the Heaven-reaching Array to cut off the world, causing the Red Immortal Sect to vanish overnight from the Barbaric Ancient Continent!
Qinghe laughed, “Once the Array was activated, the world was cut off, and at that time the Blood Fiends could not be held back any longer, bursting out from underground and beginning to slaughter the warriors and disciples of the Red Immortal Sect!”
“At that time, the Sect Leader of the Red Immortal Sect was Chang Yun.
In desperation, he had to grit his teeth and unite the warriors of the Red Immortal Sect to exterminate the Blood Fiends!”
“But there were too many Blood Fiends and the Red Immortal Sect paid a heavy price!”
“With every warrior of the Red Immortal Sect that died, Chang Yun’s hatred for me grew!”
“That’s why he said it was my Sky-swallowing Clan that betrayed their Red Immortal Sect!”
“But what he didn’t know was that if he hadn’t betrayed the covenant between the Sky-swallowing Clan and his Red Immortal Sect at that time, the Red Immortal Sect might still be the top sect of the Barbaric Ancient Continent today!”
“How could it have fallen to such a fate!”
“All of this, is but Chang Yun reaping what he sowed!”
Qinghe said coldly.
