I picked up skill fragments in the demon world

#401 - Blood Collection

Everyone attacked together, unleashing all their divine abilities and techniques towards a single point in the void. A large hole was blasted through the endless yellow sand, but behind it was only more yellow sand. This sand covered countless miles, chilling the hearts of the old ancestors, their eyes filled with despair.

"How can this be? We attacked together, yet we can't even shake a formation?" Moonlight Fairy's eyes were filled with despair. This was their strongest attack, but with the endless yellow sand encroaching, their strength would only weaken, and they would never be able to unleash a stronger attack than this.

They looked at each other, their gazes filled with endless despair.

"Our combined attack could make even an immortal retreat, so how can we not shake a mere formation? I don't believe there is such a powerful formation in the world." Old Ancestor Dongxuan's voice was filled with shock, and then his aura rose to its peak, a vast aura sweeping out as the iron tower in his hand emitted a powerful suppressing force, slamming towards the endless yellow sand.

But when his attack landed, it was as if it had struck empty space, completely ineffective. The endless yellow sand continued to inspire despair.

"Boy, if you have the guts, come out and fight to the death! What kind of hero uses formations to harm people?" Old Ancestor Fulu stood in the yellow sand and tried to provoke him. Zhang Chen sneered in the yellow sand when he heard this, "Venerable Ancestors have cultivation that reaches the heavens and penetrates the earth. Compared to you, I am but an ant. How can you rely on your cultivation to fight me and call yourselves heroes?"

Hearing Zhang Chen's mockery, the old ancestors looked at each other, knowing that there was no turning back. One of the Three Immortals of the Outer Seas said, "Fellow Daoists, this formation is very powerful. We need to prepare early to avoid dying here."

"Things have come to this, there is no way to recover. I never thought we would be planted so miserably." Old Ancestor Fulu clenched his fists in anger.

But everyone was decisive. Seeing that the Nine Bends Yellow River Formation was truly powerful and they had no strength to shake it, they all released their true spirits and burned their foundations to the extreme, then charged towards the Nine Bends Yellow River Formation.

These 'Fruit' realm大佬s ignited their own foundations and unleashed a powerful force, indeed possessing the qualifications to shake the Nine Bends Yellow River Formation. But Zhang Chen was not reckless either. The black and white scissors in his hand flew out, crisscrossing in the void. Only screams could be heard in the void, and then items fell down.

"Looks like these people's cultivation isn't that great? Even if I don't mobilize the Golden Snapping Scissors, they can't possibly escape from the Nine Bends Yellow River Formation. They are far inferior to the Innate Peacock, their cultivation is simply worlds apart." Zhang Chen put away the Golden Snapping Scissors and slowly came to the place where the objects had fallen. He saw a finger bone, a strand of hair, an eye, a pair of wings, and other items falling from the void. These items exuded a mysterious aura, and were the same kind of items as the mental relics left by Monk Haichan, indestructible existences, veritable manifestations of the 'Fruit'.

Zhang Chen picked up the items in his hands, looking back and forth, but couldn't see any mystery.

"Find a chance to try and see if my methods can absorb the power of these 'Fruit' manifestations. These old guys died and disappeared, but didn't even drop a single skill, what a bunch of trash." Zhang Chen cursed inwardly, then looked at the corpses standing in the yellow sand, a look of joy on his face. The blood he needed to cultivate the Blood Transformation Divine Blade was finally complete.

At this moment, the Innate Peacock emerged from the yellow sand, staring intently at the ten corpses: "Hahaha, by swallowing their flesh, I can cultivate for tens of thousands of years less, saving me countless efforts. Using the innate blood in their bodies to cultivate my innate blood is simply like a divine aid."

As his words fell, a phantom of a five-colored peacock appeared behind Monk Haichan. The phantom opened its mouth and was about to swallow all the corpses, causing Zhang Chen to shout quickly, "Hold on!"

Then Zhang Chen took a step forward and came to the corpses, blocking the Innate Peacock who was about to devour the flesh: "Senior, don't be anxious, I still have something to do."

The Innate Peacock said impatiently, "You're always making trouble, what else do you have to do?"

Zhang Chen came to the corpses and used Blood Absorption to extract everyone's blood. As Zhang Chen extracted everyone's blood, everyone actually revealed their original forms. Old Ancestor Dongxuan was actually a crocodile, the Three Immortals of the Outer Seas were catfish, water snake, and crab respectively, Immortal Dongqian was a tigress, Moonlight Fairy was a snow-white rabbit without any impurities, Old Ancestor Xuanji was a large turtle, and Old Ancestor of Fulu Island was a sika deer.

Everyone's blood was colorful, with divine power flowing within, obviously not ordinary creatures.

"What are you collecting their blood for?" The Innate Peacock asked, his voice filled with surprise.

Zhang Chen smiled without saying a word, carefully collecting all the blood before saying to the Innate Peacock, "Ancestor, do it."

The Innate Peacock summoned the peacock phantom again, and the phantom of the Innate Peacock appeared behind Monk Haichan. It opened its mouth, and all the flesh was swallowed into its stomach and disappeared.

"When can Ancestor help me kill that Changsheng thief?" Zhang Chen asked.

The Innate Peacock was now full of satisfaction. Hearing Zhang Chen's question, he said, "At the earliest ten years, at the latest a hundred years, I will definitely be able to refine the origin of these ten people, and then help you kill the Changsheng thief."

Zhang Chen's expression changed: "Are you playing me? By the time you finish cultivating, the day lilies will be cold! Will Xu Erniu still be alive?"

"Don't worry, the Grass Return Pill is not so easy to refine. It needs three thousand years to nourish, three thousand years to transform, and three thousand years to refine, a full nine thousand years to refine. By then, my strength will have already recovered, and killing a mere thief will be easy." The Innate Peacock smiled and comforted Zhang Chen.

Zhang Chen's eyes revealed a hint of suspicion, and he asked the Great自在天魔 in his heart: "Is this dog thing telling the truth?"

The Great自在天魔 said: "That's right, the Grass Return Pill needs nine thousand years to mature. Once it matures, it has the effect of prolonging life by 48,000 years. The time it takes to mature is naturally extremely long."

Hearing the words of the Great自在天魔, Zhang Chen relaxed and said to the Innate Peacock, "Then hurry up and cultivate, don't delay, and strive to refine the flesh as soon as possible to help me solve the trouble."

"I want to retreat and cultivate in your Nine Bends Yellow River Formation. You create a safe area for me." The Innate Peacock said to Zhang Chen.

"Why are you retreating here? Why don't you go out and find a quiet place to retreat and cultivate?" Zhang Chen was puzzled and asked.

"There is still a wisp of immortal true spirit entrusted to Changsheng Daoist. If I leave the Nine Bends Yellow River Formation, I'm afraid my aura can't be concealed and I will definitely be found." The Innate Peacock's eyes were filled with fear.

Hearing the other party's words, Zhang Chen was thoughtful, his mind flashing: "This dog thing isn't thinking about my Nine Bends Yellow River Formation, is he? But if he is thinking about my Nine Bends Yellow River Formation, that's simply wishful thinking. The Nine Bends Yellow River Formation is my golden finger panel skill, how can he covet it? As for studying the method of breaking the formation, that's even a waste of time. Unless the Nine Bends Yellow River Formation is broken with absolute strength, even if you know all the information about the formation, you can't break it."

Zhang Chen pointed to the endless yellow sand, and a ten-meter-sized open space was created in the yellow sand. The open space seemed to have formed a no-go zone for sandstorms, and all the sandstorms disappeared without a trace after approaching the no-go zone.

"You can cultivate here, I hope you can complete your cultivation within ten years and help me kill Changsheng Zhenren." Zhang Chen sighed quietly.

"Don't worry, how can I slack off when it comes to revenge?" The Innate Peacock's voice was full of coldness.

The suffering of tens of thousands of years of imprisonment can only be commemorated by the flesh and blood of these traitors.

Zhang Chen looked at the Innate Peacock's murderous face, holding the objects left by the powerhouses, and was about to leave.

"I advise you to leave these things behind, don't take them out! Although you have the Bashe Devouring Space, your Devouring Space is too immature, and it can't resist the power of these powerhouses' true spirits at all. Those old guys have a wisp of true spirit gathered on those remnants, and they may be reborn and resurrected at any time. If you swallow them into the Bashe Space, it's like directly incorporating the other party into your body. At that time, it will only take a thought for the other party to seize your body." The Innate Peacock's eyes swept over the remnants in Zhang Chen's hand, reminding Zhang Chen, his voice full of seriousness.

Hearing the Innate Peacock's words, Zhang Chen's pupils shrank, and a look of horror appeared in his eyes: "How did you see that my space is Bashe's natal divine ability?"

"Because I once killed a Bashe, so I naturally know the other party's methods." The Innate Peacock said.

Zhang Chen didn't dare to be careless when he heard this. Looking at the immortal remnants in his hand, he began to ask the Great自在天魔 again: "Is what the old peacock said true?"

He didn't believe the Innate Peacock, but he still had some faith in the Great自在天魔.

The Great自在天魔 nodded when he heard this: "That's right, that's true! These immortal remains contain a trace of true spirit. As long as the time is right, those true spirits will be resurrected at any time. And if you are unprepared, once you are seized by the other party, I'm afraid you won't have time to react at all."

Zhang Chen nodded when he heard this, glanced at the Great自在天魔, and said 'Thank you', then his figure disappeared into the endless yellow sand. He wanted to see if he could use his skills to swallow these immortal remnants.

His devouring skills devour everything, so in theory, these remnants should also be within the scope of devouring, right?
