Asura Mad Emperor-Chapter 581: Golden Calabash

"That's... a Blood Pool Flesh Forest!"

Through the layers of mist, Ye Xuanji could clearly see.

In the center of the city, there were countless meat mountains made up of bones and flesh that formed a terrifying and spine-chilling flesh forest.

At the center of the flesh forest, there was a lake formed by the convergence of fresh blood, a scene strikingly reminiscent of Human Purgatory.

In the center of the Blood Pool, a golden vine grew, spreading around the entire Blood Pool, with golden leaves encircling it.

Hanging on the end of the vine was a Golden Gourd, from which the fragrance that everyone had smelled earlier was emanating.

Enveloping the Blood Pool Flesh Forest was a band of black mist, exuding a fierce and overwhelming presence. The invisible force exerted a tremendous pressure, so overpowering that it left people breathless.

From a distance, the sight was horrifying. Even Ye Xuanji, who had seen many grand scenes, was shocked by the present bloodiness.

As they approached the center of Earth City, Ji Huo'er and the others also saw the scene before them.

"How could this be? Could it be that someone is using cultivator Essence Blood to nourish this Golden Gourd?"

Ji Huo'er's face was deathly pale as she stammered, not out of fear, but because she could not bear the heartbreaking scene before her.

Ye Shiyi, the weakest in strength, clenched his teeth in silence. In fact, due to the bloodline of the Ghost Race within him, his face even bore a calm and indifferent expression, utterly unlike that of a child.

"No," Qinchuan alerted everyone and then continued, "This Blood Formation isn't for nourishing the Golden Gourd; rather, someone is using the Golden Gourd to lure cultivators to this place."

"What..."

"Could this be a trap?!"

Hearing Qinchuan's words, Ye Xuanji and the others immediately realized, suppressing the urge to go pick the Golden Gourd.

Sure enough, at that moment, dazzling lights began to twinkle all around, the winds and clouds changed, and the black mist surged. A blood-colored light barrier shot up into the sky, engulfing the entire Earth City within.

This was a terrifying Great Formation, and now they were deeply trapped within it.

"Big brother, have we fallen into an Array?" Ji Huo'er held tightly onto Qinchuan's arm and asked in a low voice.

Qinchuan had already anticipated this situation.

He shone all over, unhurriedly took out the Chi Yue Spear, and on its length, a tremendous Earth Fire and Heavenly Thunder Blade radiated, dispelling the menacing air around them.

"This is the Blood Demon Formation, unlike other Great Formations, this formation isn't constructed with Mysterious Crystals and Heavenly Treasure Materials, but with human flesh and bodies."

"At first, to construct this Great Formation, only a thousand human bodies are needed. However, the formation will absorb on its own until it assimilates a million bodies, at which point it will be complete."

"Those missing children from Lindong City, do they have something to do with this Great Array?" Ling Xian'er followed closely and asked quietly.

"Yes, this Blood Demon Formation also requires the blood of ten thousand children with Dawn, Star Devouring, and Solar Eclipse Attributes in an extremely Yin state."

Due to the stringent requirements for the children's attributes, the targets could be both ordinary and cultivator children.

And for the state of extreme Yin, that was the easiest to achieve.

The Human Race, while resting, exchanges Yang Energy with the heavens and earth during the day and Yin Qi at night.

Moreover, because adults have a stronger energy field, they will affect the exchange of Yin Qi in children; only children sleeping alone at night can achieve an extremely Yin state.

Therefore, it was not difficult to understand why the missing children from Lindong City were all those who were alone at night and indiscriminately targeted.

"Looking at this Great Formation, it has already absorbed a large number of cultivators. Perhaps it won't be long before the formation is perfected."

And just at this moment, a chilly voice suddenly resonated from all directions.

"Heh heh, who would have thought, who would have thought that not only would someone today see through this king's trap, but they also know of the Blood Demon Formation, truly astonishing indeed,"

The laugh resonated with a chilling excitement, as though an evil ghost had crawled out from Jiuyou Purgatory.

"That's right, this Blood Demon Formation is just a hundred bodies shy of being complete,"

"Oh, no no, to be precise, it's only lacking ninety-five bodies now," said the voice in the darkness, followed by another sinister cackle.

"What a pity, even if you know this is the Blood Demon Formation, what can you do? In the end, you will still be refined by this king's Great Formation and turn into a puddle of blood."

"A joke, merely the Blood Demon Formation, it cannot trouble this young master."

Qinchuan's gaze was sharp as lightning, golden brilliance shot from his eyes into the void, and his raging killing intent surged around him.

This caused a shadow hidden in the darkness to shudder violently.

But immediately after, the shadow regained composure and said in a cold and grim tone, "So arrogant. Among these ninety-nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine bodies, a great many were just like you, blindly confident. Unfortunately, most of them have already been turned into flesh and blood."

"You will be no exception; you will ultimately become the cornerstone of this king's Great Formation."

No sooner had the voice faded away than the surrounding blood-colored mist began to roil.

The crimson mist in the void gathered, and in a blink, a ghastly shadow took shape.

The shadow towered high into the sky, blending into the blood mist, like an ancient giant bathed in blood.

Wrapped around the giant's arms were black, band-like mists, and the solid form that materialized was etched with ferocious fierce beasts, exuding an air of terror.

"Heh heh, die in despair within this king's Formation!"

Excitement and anticipation filled the concealed voice.

Then, the blood-colored giant extended a finger, around which countless blood-colored paths swirled, and blue flames, similar to those of Netherland, burned as they pointed straight at Qinchuan's glabella---

The glabella is connected to the sea of consciousness and is extremely fragile.

Yet, as the finger approached, Qinchuan inexplicably stayed still, showing no intention of resisting whatsoever.

"Boy, have you been scared silly by this king's tactics?" asked the voice in the darkness mockingly, noticing Qinchuan's stillness.

"This king thought you had some special tricks, it turns out you're just a braggart."

The giant's finger had already reached Qinchuan's glabella.

Qinchuan sneered continuously, glancing sideways at the towering giant.

The next moment, Qinchuan's glabella cracked open, revealing a golden vortex, from which golden essence radiated.

The giant, which resembled an ancient deity, was instantly sucked into the vortex.

Following this, the voice in the darkness let out a sorrowful, piercing scream as its soul was ripped apart.

"Ah..."

"How is this possible!"

"How can your soul be so strong?!" The voice in the darkness lost its earlier poise and self-assurance, now filled with terror.

"Who are you? How can someone at the Dragon Transformation Realm possess a soul comparable to a Great Emperor's?"

What he didn't know was that even estimating Qinchuan's soul on par with a Great Emperor's was an exaggeration, yet it was still a vast underestimation.
