Chapter 573: Massacre of the City

The man in black was taken aback, then said angrily, "Fine, I thought you were talented, so I advised you. Since you're seeking death, don't blame me! Your talent is not bad, but your temperament is too poor! Even if you don't die today, you'll eventually die from your arrogance!"

Ye Yuan, however, was neither anxious nor annoyed, and said with a smile, "Thank you for your concern, senior, but I know my own affairs. The True Dragon's Blood is so powerful; if I can't unleash its full potential, wouldn't that be a waste? Don't you think so, senior?"

"Hmph! Suit yourself!" The man in black snorted coldly and vanished.

Ye Yuan stared at the True Dragon's Blood in his hand, momentarily lost in thought.

He hadn't expected such a bountiful harvest from this trip to the Haotian Tower.

Whether it was the Nameless Yuan Force, the Haotian Stele, or the Nine-Character True Word Art, all were top-tier treasures, extremely rare even in the Divine Realm.

And clearing the sixth floor perfectly rewarded a drop of True Dragon's Blood—an unexpected surprise.

To put it without exaggeration, a martial artist who consumes True Dragon's Blood undergoes a complete transformation!

Even a pig would cultivate at a speed that would drive ordinary people to despair.

Cultivating Yuan Force has always been a slow, painstaking process. Although Ye Yuan could rely on pills, as his realm grew higher, his demands for medicinal herbs became greater.

He no longer had the Medicine King Hall to support his cultivation; even if he could afford the herbs, he couldn't find enough high-grade ones.

And frankly, this body's aptitude was truly mediocre, greatly restricting his cultivation speed.

Ye Yuan's realm had advanced so far largely through pills and fortuitous encounters; he had hardly spent any time cultivating step by step.

With the True Dragon's Blood, he would no longer have to worry about cultivation speed.

Without hesitation, Ye Yuan sat cross-legged, entered a state of utter tranquility, and adjusted his body to its optimal condition.

The True Dragon's Blood was formidable, but as the man in black said, a moment's carelessness could burst a martial artist apart.

Although Ye Yuan was confident he could conquer the True Dragon's Blood, he dared not be the least bit negligent.

This was a life-or-death gamble!

Ye Yuan carefully opened the small bottle, and an overwhelmingly domineering aura burst forth, as if about to tear the entire space apart.

In an instant, Ye Yuan seemed to see a True Dragon dart out of the bottle, coiling and soaring through the air.

"Truly worthy of the True Dragon's Blood—even a single drop of essence blood has such might!" Ye Yuan exclaimed in admiration.

Without hesitation, Ye Yuan swallowed the essence blood, and immediately his internal organs felt as if they were being scorched.

At that moment, Ye Yuan truly understood what it meant to have his five organs burning!

"Ah!"

Ye Yuan couldn't help but let out a long roar, echoing through the entire inheritance space.

In the void, the man in black watched coldly and said, "An arrogant brat who doesn't know his place! I thought you were different, but you're just a fool! When refining True Dragon's Blood, the most terrifying thing isn't the energy within the dragon blood, but the dreadful will of the True Dragon. Even a Spirit Traveling Realm martial artist, if careless, can have their will obliterated by the dragon's will and become a walking corpse! Forget it, if such a fool dies, so be it. Nothing to regret."

Ye Yuan gritted his teeth so hard they creaked; every inch of his skin was burning.

The flesh on his body surface began to crack, looking terrifying.

Ye Yuan was still in a state of utter tranquility, making all the pain exceptionally clear. Such agony gave one the urge to commit suicide.

The True Dragon's Blood was indeed overwhelmingly domineering, threatening to burst Ye Yuan apart!

At that moment, all of Ye Yuan's meridians were filled with狂暴 energy. Even though he had pushed the "Lingzhe Nine Suns Divine Art" to its limit, he couldn't digest the violent energy.

Soon, Ye Yuan fell into extreme danger!

Seeing Ye Yuan's miserable state, the man in black couldn't help but scold again, "Heh, now you've tasted the bitterness, haven't you? Let you be arrogant! Although this True Dragon's Blood isn't true divine beast essence blood, the energy it contains isn't something a mere Sea Transformation Realm brat like you can conquer! What a fool!"

The man in black sighed as he spoke, "Alas... I finally waited for a genius with exceptional talent, and now he's going to die like this. That guy, of all things, had to give him True Dragon's Blood. Now look what's happened! How many years will it take to find another genius like this?"

...

Outside the Haotian Tower, a commotion suddenly arose.

A Soul Sea Realm martial artist burst into the Haotian Secret Realm and rushed straight to Ning Yixian.

"Alliance Leader, something terrible has happened!" The martial artist looked frantic.

Ning Yixian's heart skipped a beat, but he still asked calmly, "What happened?"

This martial artist was his trusted subordinate, left in Wufang City to assist a Supreme Elder of the Heavenly Martial Sect in handling alliance affairs.

Judging by his expression, something serious must have occurred.

Indeed, the martial artist said indignantly, "The five巨头 of the Hurricane Realm personally attacked, directly capturing the important town of Yunticheng in the southeast of the Northern Domain and activating the teleportation array! Now, the Hurricane Realm martial artists have launched a full-scale invasion of the Northern Domain, capturing three cities in the southeast! And..."

Everyone's expression changed.

The five巨头 of the Hurricane Realm personally attacking—this was no small matter!

The Hurricane Realm had entered the Southern Domain for so long without any action, and now they struck with such speed and precision!

Ning Yixian and the others had thought that with the Boundless Forest as a natural barrier, a large-scale invasion by the Hurricane Realm wouldn't be possible in the short term.

Who would have thought the five巨头 would be so decisive and attack directly?

The Boundless Forest could not be crossed directly by those below the Spirit Traveling Realm. Only those in the Spirit Traveling Realm had enough ability to protect themselves.

The five巨头 personally capturing the teleportation array was something Ning Yixian hadn't anticipated.

"And what? Stop beating around the bush and speak quickly!" Ning Yixian urged.

The martial artist said with grief and indignation, "And after occupying those three important towns, the Hurricane Realm... actually ordered a massacre, killing all the Boundless Realm martial artists in those three cities! The number... the number is probably in the millions!"

"What! What did you say? A massacre?"

Ning Yixian doubted his own ears. Were these people mad?

According to what Ye Yuan had said and what they had learned, the Hurricane Realm was only after the resources of the Boundless Realm.

If they adopted a conciliatory strategy, many wavering individuals in the Boundless Realm would surely defect.

But a massacre would undoubtedly provoke fierce resistance from all Boundless Realm martial artists!

Was such a simple truth beyond the understanding of the Hurricane Realm martial artists?
