Nine Realms Sword Emperor

Many ants can bite an elephant to death. Even if it doesn't take much Spiritual Power to kill one blood serpent, when you're up against thousands of them, a quasi-emperor's Spiritual Power could still be completely exhausted.

Faced with such a massive blood serpent horde, even a quasi-emperor would choose to evade rather than fight.

However, Chu Fengmian was an anomaly. As he watched more and more blood serpents rushing over, there wasn't the slightest tension on his face; instead, a few traces of a delighted smile appeared.

Each of these blood serpents represented a blood stone, and some of the more powerful ones had blood stones inside them that were even more refined than those found elsewhere.

To Chu Fengmian, these charging blood serpents were essentially refined blood stones. As for the consumption of Spiritual Power, although the effect of the Divine Veins was somewhat hindered in this blood world, recovering Spiritual Power wasn't a problem. It just wasn't as easy to amass Spirit Stones as out there.

"Boom!"

Chu Fengmian unleashed his martial techniques without any hesitation and without needing to conserve Spiritual Power. With each move, swathes of blood serpents were directly obliterated.

Simultaneously, with a wave of Chu Fengmian's other hand, the blood stones from these blood serpents were directly drawn to him. Counting those from underground, Chu Fengmian had amassed at least ten thousand blood stones by now.

"Finally can't sit still, can you?"

As Chu Fengmian continued his massacre, suddenly a surge of overwhelming blood energy burst forth. The powerful figures of the blood serpent tribe seemed unable to endure any longer and suddenly acted.

Under a series of roars, the blood serpents that were previously scattered suddenly gathered together. In an instant, the blood energy churned violently.

"An array? These blood serpents actually know how to use an array?"

A trace of surprise flashed in Chu Fengmian's eyes. He could clearly see that these blood serpents were setting up an array. Usually, ordinary blood demon beasts lacked intelligence and could only fight based on instinct.

In neither Lei Yan's memory nor the intelligence from the Ancient Serpent Merchant House was it ever mentioned that the blood serpent tribe could utilize arrays.

A horde of demon beasts fighting purely on instinct is entirely different from those capable of forming arrays working together.

The strength of these individual blood serpents wasn't something Chu Fengmian considered, but their combined force, the explosive power of tens of thousands of blood serpents, would give even a true emperor pause.

"No matter, attack first and deal with those blood serpent kings!"

With a glance, Chu Fengmian spotted, not far off, a total of seven gigantic blood serpents.

The appearance of these seven huge blood serpents was what had quieted the previously chaotic battle, allowing for the formation of an array. These blood serpent kings were peak existences in the Immortal realm, the reigning forces within the blood serpent tribe.

The other blood serpents followed their commands and arranged into an array. To capture the leader, one must first eliminate the king. Killing these blood serpent kings would leave the rest of the mindless blood serpents leaderless and of no threat.

"Break!"

Suddenly, with a wave of Chu Fengmian's subsidiary force, a surge of Spiritual Power burst forth, transforming mid-air into the shape of a dragon claw, directly attacking the seven blood serpent kings in the distance.

This dragon claw swept across, directly obliterating the blood serpents in its path. Chu Fengmian's figure also followed the dragon claw, piercing into the core of the blood serpent tribe.

Yet at that moment, the seemingly broken blood serpent great array suddenly erupted with terrifying power. At the breach, a massive surge of blood energy soared skyward, rushing toward Chu Fengmian.

"Hmm? They even know strategy?"

Chu Fengmian hadn't expected that they not only understood arrays but also possessed such high intelligence. His entry into the blood serpent great array seemed to be a deliberate move by these blood serpent kings.

Without giving Chu Fengmian any time to think, these blood serpents unleashed their terrifying power simultaneously, striking towards him.

The combined force of tens of thousands of blood serpents erupted instantly, flooding the sky with overwhelming blood energy. This energy transformed into a massive serpent tail, striking fiercely.

In an instant, golden dragon scales appeared at the edge of Chu Fengmian's body. At the same time, the Divine Tree within him concentrated its power to the utmost.

"Unbeatable Battle Dragon!"

From behind Chu Fengmian's body, the phantom of an ancient battle dragon suddenly soared skyward, clashing head-on with the massive serpent tail.

"Boom!"

The dragon and serpent phantoms collided fiercely in the air, then both disappeared simultaneously.

"The power of these blood serpents is truly terrifying. A great array of tens of thousands of blood serpents is indeed enough to contend with a quasi-emperor."

Chu Fengmian glanced around, his gaze suddenly shifting away from the seven blood serpent kings.

These blood serpent kings seemed, just earlier, also acted under a command to attack Chu Fengmian, proving that behind them, there was an even stronger presence.

"Not planning to come out yet? It seems I must kill these seven blood serpent kings before you will appear!"

The person behind this needed no guesswork from Chu Fengmian. He was well aware that the only one capable of commanding these seven blood serpent kings was the leader, the emperor of the blood serpent tribe.

"Sword out!"

Chu Fengmian ceased wasting words. In this blood world, nobody knew his identity, so he had nothing to worry about.

Outside, Chu Fengmian had disguised himself as a Dragon Clan member, so he was reluctant to use swordsmanship. But in this blood world, he had no such concerns.

The Ancestor Dragon Supreme Sword suddenly unsheathed, exuding a terrifying dragon might, and simultaneously, this Sword Edge moved.

Dazzling Sword Light shot skyward, slashing in all directions.

In an instant, a full nine thousand nine hundred Sword Lights were unleashed simultaneously, turning many blood serpents into fragments in the blink of an eye.

In an instant, over a thousand blood serpents were slain, making it a massacre.

"Damn!"

Suddenly, in the heart of the blood serpent tribe, a mutation arose, and terrifying blood energy erupted, shattering the incoming Sword Qi.

Simultaneously, a gigantic blood serpent suddenly appeared. This blood serpent spanned a thousand miles in length, a colossal figure in the blood desert.

The blood serpents around it were like ants in its presence, and from this enormous blood serpent emanated an incomparably majestic authority.
