Chapter 1271 Blood Lotus

At that moment, the Cold Cicada Pearl suddenly floated above the withered bones, its red light dazzling.

Under the red glow, Jiang Xiaochuan saw that each bone of the withered skeleton was imprinted with faint black lotus patterns.

At the same time, the white light on the white jade lotus platform went out completely.

A dense aura of bloodlust surged forth from the lotus platform, intertwining with the red light of the cicada-shaped jade, instantly filling the entire tomb chamber.

Jiang Xiaochuan and Lao Liu felt a blur before their eyes and the world spinning around them.

A powerful suction force emanated from the Frost Cicada Pearl, instantly pulling their consciousness into an illusion formed from resentment.

In the illusion, scenes from hundreds of years ago appeared vividly:

In her youth, Yao Yue, dressed in a long black dress, stood on the altar of the Crimson Blood Cult, her gaze towards the white-robed man below filled with undisguised love.

The man was handsome and extraordinary, but a hint of greed flashed in his eyes as she turned around.

For him, Yao Yue betrayed the sect rules, turned against the elders, offered up the core treasure, and even gave up her position as sect leader.

But what I got in return was betrayal on a stormy night.

The man in white, together with other experts from the sect, personally plunged a poisoned dagger into her heart.

Yao Yue lay in a pool of blood, her eyes filled with love that turned to despair, then to hatred. With her last ounce of strength, she uttered a blood curse:

"I, Yao Yue, will make all heartless and fickle people pay for their crimes in blood in my next life!"

The image shattered, and endless darkness descended.

This hatred, spanning a century, pressed down on the two of them relentlessly. The sixth brother was the first to bear the brunt, his bones nearly crushed by the weight of the resentment.

Jiang Xiaochuan forcibly circulated his spiritual energy to protect his sea of ​​consciousness, barely managing to retain a sliver of clarity.

The blood-curdling sounds, like thunder, buzzed in my ears.

Jiang Xiaochuan struggled to lift his head and saw that the withered bones in the coffin had somehow crawled out and were floating in mid-air.

Dark red will-o'-the-wisps flickered in their eye sockets.

The moment Jiang Xiaochuan looked over, a powerful and suffocating aura suddenly erupted.

Jiang Xiaochuan's face was extremely solemn. He turned to look at the seemingly dazed Lao Liu and gritted his teeth, saying, "Look what you've done!"

"I I I..."

The sixth brother was so frightened that his tongue tied in knots. Even though they were several meters apart, the bloodthirsty aura emanating from the skeleton still held him firmly in place.

"Why don't you run?!"

Jiang Xiaochuan gave a low shout.

He could see clearly that all the skeleton's resentment was stuck to Lao Liu.

Even if this fat man has a trump card, he wouldn't last more than three moves against the remnant soul of an ancient sect leader who far surpasses the Nirvana Realm before turning to ashes.

Upon hearing Jiang Xiaochuan's roar, Lao Liu seemed to have his meridians opened up, and his will to survive overcame all fear.

Using both hands and feet, they tumbled down from the swaying iron chain and ran towards the hole they had come from.

In the entire tomb, apart from the entrance, he couldn't think of any other place to hide.

Seeing the sixth brother flee, the two dark red flames in the skull's eye sockets flickered violently, as if it had been thoroughly enraged.

With a sudden swipe of its skeletal hand, a condensed red bloodline shot out, heading straight for the sixth brother's back.

Jiang Xiaochuan naturally wouldn't stand idly by. The instant the bloodline shot towards Lao Liu, he exerted force with his feet, stepping on the swaying iron chain and forcefully blocking the bloodline between Lao Liu and Lao Liu.

"What a powerful Blood Fiend Technique!"

Jiang Xiaochuan felt a chill in his heart.

The overwhelming aura of bloodlust immediately disrupted his mind.

The Blood Fiend Technique used by this skeleton is completely different from the techniques used by the Blood River Stream.

The latter accumulates malevolent energy by sucking human blood.

The skeleton's Blood Fiend Technique was terrifyingly pure, containing not a trace of blood or filth.

It seemed to be the source of malevolent energy condensed directly from heaven and earth, just like the Blood Fiend Technique he had comprehended, and it was most capable of affecting the mind.

In a flash, Jiang Xiaochuan made a decisive move and withdrew the spiritual energy circulating within his body.

He also used his Blood Fiend Technique and raised his palm to strike from a distance.

"Oh!"

The two streams of bloodthirsty energy collided.

Jiang Xiaochuan was so shocked that he staggered backward, his blood surging, and he almost spat out a mouthful of blood.

The red bloodline was also weakened by most of its force and slowly dissipated.

"Can not be done!!"

At the same time, Lao Liu's furious roar came from behind.

Jiang Xiaochuan glanced over out of the corner of his eye, and his heart sank.

The entrance the two had entered through had been sealed off by a flowing, dark red light curtain.

The light curtain resembled a congealed river of blood, emanating a chilling aura that sent shivers down one's spine; it was clearly the work of a skeleton.

If Lao Liu dares to touch it, he will probably be corroded into a pool of blood in an instant.

"Find another way out!"

Jiang Xiaochuan roared, forcibly suppressing the surging blood and qi within his body, and once again circulated the Blood Fiend Technique to completely dispel the remaining fiendish energy fluctuations.

The skeleton clearly hadn't expected its attack to be neutralized.

It seemed that it had never encountered this situation before in its life, and its remaining instincts caused it to pause slightly.

The next second, it stopped looking at the fleeing sixth brother and slowly turned its head, locking its cold gaze onto Jiang Xiaochuan.

Suddenly, the pressure on Jiang Xiaochuan increased dramatically.

He watched as Lao Liu scurried around the tomb like a headless fly, and cursed inwardly that this guy had ruined him.

He had only learned two levels of the Blood Fiend Technique, and his foundation was shallow. He could barely neutralize one move, relying entirely on the fact that the origin of his technique was the same as that of his opponent.

But facing the remnant soul of this sect leader who has cultivated for hundreds of years, let alone winning, it is still unknown whether he can even withstand three moves.

At this critical moment, Jiang Xiaochuan suddenly noticed that the lotus platform, which was originally made of white jade, had now turned blood red.

In the center of the platform, a dark red aura of malevolence rose up like a pillar.

The Frost Cicada Bead, which connects directly to the front of the skull, is continuously channeling malevolent energy into the bone structure.

"So that's it!"

Jiang Xiaochuan's mind lit up, and he immediately understood the key point.

The lotus platform is the root of the evil energy, and the Jade Cicada is the conduit for it. This skeleton is entirely sustained by this energy!

Once the lotus platform is smashed and the supply is cut off, it's doomed!

Having figured this out, he turned and yelled at the sixth brother, who was running around in the distance:

"Come here if you want to live! Smash that lotus platform! I'll hold it off!"

Upon hearing this, Lao Liu suddenly stopped in his tracks, first stunned, then seeing the blood-red lotus platform and the connected pillar of malevolent energy, he immediately understood.

"Damn it, let's fight!"

The sixth brother dared not hesitate for a moment.

His cultivation at the early stage of the Grandmaster realm erupted without reservation.

A surge of grayish-white energy erupted from between his palms, accompanied by a whistling sound, and expanded to a whole size before slamming into the blood-red lotus platform that was surging with red light!

"boom!"

The moment the energy struck the lotus platform, a burst of red light appeared on its surface, like a gaping maw of blood suddenly opening.

With a "gulp," it swallowed the grayish-white energy completely without even making a ripple!

"What the hell?!"

The sixth brother's expression changed. Before he could react, the energy that had been swallowed suddenly surged back.

It also contained a dark red aura, which rushed towards him at an even faster speed!

"boom!"

The sixth brother had no time to dodge and was hit squarely in the chest.

He was sent flying like a sandbag, crashing heavily into the stone wall of the tomb, causing dust to fall from the ceiling.
