Cultivation Begins with Skill Points

Boom!

"Ah! Zhong Lin!"

The immense sound, like ten thousand thunders exploding, couldn't drown out the terrified cries of Qin Yuchen and Qiu Ye.

With two miserable screams, a powerful unwilling will burst forth, so intense it could be felt even thousands of miles away.

Rumbling!

The bodies of the second and fourth Saint Heirs of the Nine Nether Demon Sect, forged through countless trials, suddenly swelled up, and finally exploded like massive fireworks, limbs flying, blood mist filling the air.

Amidst countless fragments shooting around, a pitch-black as ink and a blood-red as the moon Xuandan crazily fled in all directions, bearing Zhong Lin's formidable power.

"Trying to escape?"

Zhong Lin sneered, his body unmoving, flipping his palm with the full intent of his fist congealing.

Instantly transforming into a giant hand covering the sky, aiming to grasp those two Xuandan.

"Elder, save me."

"Elder Xiao Cheng, save me."

Heart-rending cries emanated from within the Xuandan, accompanied by pleas for help.

"Worthless trash."

Rumbling!

In the midst of cursing, a blood bead suddenly appeared in front of the Xuandan, densely covered with sinister human faces, very eerie, and at this moment, all of those faces began wailing, sending out silent yet exceptionally evil sound waves hitting everyone's eardrums.

Zhong Lin's spirit surged, his eyes glistening, the giant hand covering the sky descended once more.

"You think just a drop of blood can snatch something from my hands, you're overestimating yourself."

Boom!

Zhong Lin roared, the powerful intent of his fist erupted, entangling with the evil will within the blood bead, a fierce battle unfolded.

The blood bead quivered violently, the wailing growing even more intense.

"Hehehe! Indeed, you are a prodigy of the Heavenly Sword Sacred Land, Wuhuang truly didn't choose wrong, but it's a pity you're too weak. Blood Prison Demon God, Blood Prison Demon God, I command the Blood Sea, cleansing the world with blood."

The chilling voice contained an unimaginably powerful evil force, the ten-thousand-mile territory turned blood red, even the sun hanging in the sky seemed shrouded in a layer of blood light.

In an instant, countless experts across the Eastern Desolate were alarmed, some calculating, some raising their gaze, some showing surprise, some sneering continuously.

Buzz!

A sword hum echoed through the skies, and at an unknown moment, a long sword appeared in Zhong Lin's hand.

With a casual swipe, it transformed into ten thousand miles of blood-red Sword Qi, enveloping the blood bead.

"Slash!"

Zhong Lin cried out loudly.

Boom!

The blood bead exploded violently under the Sword Qi, but in the next moment, accompanied by a rushing sound, endless blood rushed out from within, like a rolling Blood Sea, swallowing everything in its path, be it mountains, rivers, grass, or trees.

"Zhong Lin!"

Witnessing this scene, the Void King's eyes widened, roaring in anger as he wished to go to the rescue.

"Hehehe, Void King, your opponent is me."

Yuan Bin let out a cold laugh, sending forth a palm strike to forcibly prevent the Void King from moving a step beyond the thunder pool.

"Yuan Bin, get out of the way."

At this moment, the Void King was exceedingly anxious. Zhong Lin, though powerful, had just broken through Nirvana and was no match for Xiao Cheng, this Demon Sect Sealing King expert.

"Does your heart ache? Hehehe, indeed a prodigious disciple, such talent even makes me a bit jealous, but unfortunately, you're about to die, hehehe, it's truly interesting."

Facing the Void King's increasingly frenzied attacks, Yuan Bin continued to fend them off with full strength while using words to unsettle his mind.

On the other side, Zhong Lin, engulfed by the Blood Sea, showed no sign of panic on his face.

Stepping forward, his five fingers smooth and soft, each acupoint flickered with brilliance, and the rolling blood waves were unexpectedly being absorbed into his body.

"Heaven and Earth Furnace, I am the new fuel, refining the blood waves, aiding my cultivation."

The Blood Sea, like a curtain, surged downward to dissolve Zhong Lin completely, yet it continuously flowed into his body.

In an instant, Zhong Lin's entire body radiated a bloody light, a bloody, violent, and cruel aura exuding from him.

"What an evil blood water, how many people has this demon killed?"

Feeling the violent, cruel wails within the Blood Sea, Zhong Lin couldn't help but shudder. Having practiced the Blood Slaughter Demon Devouring Technique, he naturally knew this was beyond what Blood Essence could achieve, forged through endless slaughter, refining the resentment, pain, and monstrous will of living beings before their death.

Thus, once deployed, the opponent immediately suffers from the negative emotions within, and if careless, the Divine Soul would disperse under such an impact.

Zhong Lin, having long understood the Spirit Domain, naturally had no fear of this evil intent. With a thought, he merely felt a sword light flash across his mind, easily chopping and destroying it.

The Heaven and Earth Furnace operated, strands of Blood Qi converted into the purest Blood Essence under the burn of Blazing Flame, flowing into Zhong Lin's body, like a warm breeze gently blowing in through a vent, causing the whole body to plunge into extreme enjoyment, irresistibly tempting one to sink into it.

One thread, one wisp, one flow, until it finally flowed between sinews and bones like a mighty Yangtze River.

Crack, crack, crack!

Zhong Lin's entire body's sinews and bones stretched out, the whole body swelling and then slowly contracting.

Repeatedly, from within, drum-like explosions resounded.

In just an instant, Zhong Lin absorbed purer and larger blood energy than that in the Blood Pool of the Wuhuang Secret Realm.

"What an opportunity."

Zhong Lin's eyes became exceptionally bright; such a massive quantity of Qi-Blood was the best fuel to support the cultivation of the Undying Scripture, and finding such opportunities again would be scarce.

The fifth achievement of the Undying Scripture, Blood Rebirth, requires integrating one's will into every inch of muscle, blood, bone, and hair, like a Blood Pearl, to possess its own rhythm of life, its own spirituality.

According to the full-level memories delivered by the System panel, at the fifth level of the Undying Scripture, every inch of the flesh seemed alive, possessing its own breathing, its own thinking, even capable of leaving the body and developing independently at any moment.

Even a drop of blood could transform into a person, evolve into a human body.

Thus, even if killed, leaving only a speck of dust, it would gradually grow and become oneself again.

At this moment, Zhong Lin frantically operated the Undying Scripture, the surging blood energy merging into the flesh in a strange pattern, while his consciousness, alongside the flow of blood, embedded into it, permeating every corner of his body.

"Hehehe, die!"

Elder Xiao Cheng's gaze turned into a crimson field, the Blood Sea around him surged, a hideous expression between his brows, his crimson eyes devoid of any emotion, with countless negative emotions twisting and condensing into a bizarre will.

Amidst the trembling of primordial energy, his sky full of red hair fluttered wildly, laughing arrogantly.

"Cry! Scream! Die!"

His sleeve suddenly swirled, and within the sky, the Blood Sea surged crazily, abruptly pounding down on Zhong Lin like the sky being flipped upside down.
