Chapter 735: Blood Demon Scripture
Shi Feiyang transported the Red Flower Princess from Central Earth into the "Demon God Scripture".
She emerged from the open Demon Scripture, surrounded by Demon Light, and her first instinct was to fly out of the scripture.
A red beam shot toward the ceiling. Shi Feiyang lightly tapped the table, causing the Demon Scripture to burst with brilliance. Billions of characters from the scripture flew up, surging toward the Red Flower Princess.
The Red Flower Princess felt as if she were covered in countless mosquito bites; she used Demon Light to shield herself. However, because she had voluntarily vowed for rebirth into this Demon Scripture, the Demon Light on her body merged with the light from the Demon Scripture, becoming one. The words from the scripture flowed unobstructed, penetrating into her body.
Some of the scripture remained outside her body, interconnecting to form eight chains that tightly bound her Primordial Spirit, forcibly pulling her back to the surface of the scripture, preventing her from flying away.
The Red Flower Princess was unwilling, struggling desperately, transforming into a mist of blood that floated up and down. Yet the six "chains" penetrated the core of the blood mist, preventing it from escaping.
Then she ignited into a blaze of Demon Fire, burning fiercely to break the "chains".
The glow from the words forming the "chains" flickered, and naturally, couldn't be burned away.
Suddenly, with a sharp scream, a barrage of blood shadows shot out of her magic, scattering in all directions, trying to escape using the method of Divine Splitting. As long as one blood shadow escaped, she could thoroughly flee.
However, the scripture chains also divided, with each blood shadow connected to eight chains. The blood shadows multiplied infinitely, and the chains were endless, continually binding her to the pages of the scripture.
"Ah..."
The Red Flower Princess let out a frantic, helpless scream.
All the blood shadows converged into one, reverting back into a witch.
As she stopped struggling, the scripture chains vanished, leaving only a shroud of Demon Light around her.
Her hair disheveled, she suspended herself above the Demon Scripture, glaring venomously at Shi Feiyang with her eyes.
Shi Feiyang smiled faintly, "Don't waste your effort; falling into my hands is a thousand times better than falling into theirs. That's the decision you made between life and death; are you regretting it now that you've just arrived here?"
The choice made by the Red Flower Princess was indeed out of desperation. If allowed to return to that moment, she would still choose to come to the Outer Heaven Divine Mountain, yet she wasn't willing to be manipulated by Shi Feiyang.
"What do you want?"
"You should be able to guess what I want, right? You should know it all."
"You're going to use me against Deng Yin."
"Yes, it's your only chance to return normally to Deng Yin's side, isn't it? You realized it before too and wanted to use me to send you back."
The Red Flower Princess felt hope rise again in her heart. Indeed, she intended to use Shi Feiyang, but she felt trapped by the Demon Scripture, causing fear as if she could never leave this scripture, so she struggled fiercely.
"Will you do it?"
Shi Feiyang nodded, "Of course, to eradicate the Blood God, only the 'Blood God Scripture' can be used. Those who cultivate it are ultimately bound by this scripture and will be destroyed. Success and failure stem from this scripture; from the moment you began cultivating, your fate was already sealed. The Princess of the Stone God back then was the only exception."
"Alright, now send me back to find Deng Yin. Don't involve anyone else; deliver me directly into Deng Yin's hands. I will help you deal with that bastard!"
"No, no, no, letting you return to see Deng Yin is certain, your family of three must reunite, but not now. Before your reunion, you need to do one more thing for me."
"What is it?" The Red Flower Princess felt an extremely bad premonition rising in her heart. She tried casting again to break free from the bindings, but after another struggle, she was once again restrained by chains on the scripture's pages.
"What exactly do you want!" The Red Flower Princess broke down, screaming her heart out.
Shi Feiyang remained silent, calmly watching her, as if looking at a three-dimensional short play.
He waited until she finished her struggle before speaking, "I want to create a new Demon Scripture."
"Demon Scripture?" The Red Flower Princess felt a more intense sense of foreboding, "You want me to divulge the contents of the 'Blood God Scripture' and co-write the most powerful Demon Scripture in the world with you?"
Shi Feiyang laughed, shaking his head, then nodded, "I understand, the most profound parts of the 'Blood God Scripture' can't be expressed with words or language; you must personally engage in cultivation within it, so it's not about revealing the scripture text."
The Red Flower Princess's face showed some peculiar expressions, "You want me to teach you the contents of the scripture directly, hands-on?"
She realized that Shi Feiyang had already attained Body Ascension, almost achieving the level of a Golden Immortal. Once he actively engaged in Dual Cultivation with the 'Blood God Scripture', both his Primordial Spirit and body would be tainted. His Dao Fruit would disappear, not to mention retaining his Golden Immortal position; even reaching Heavenly Immortal would be impossible, regressing to the level of an Earth Immortal, unless he later turned to the Demon Path. Otherwise, it truly would be self-destruction.
She wasn't sure if Shi Feiyang knew the consequences, but he likely did. Perhaps he was extremely confident, believing he could engage in Dual Cultivation in the Demon Path without harming his Immortal Business.
She knew that Shi Feiyang was always involved in dual cultivation of the Demon Path; she had seen many of such people.
Back then, when she seduced Deng Yin into the Demon Path, it was the same. Deng Yin also thought he could practice demonic magic for its benefits without its harm. At first, it was so until later, with dual cultivation, Deng Yin's Nascent Soul became tainted, and he realized the dangers, but by then it was too late to turn back. Even practicing the Nine Heavens Mysterious Scripture would yield half the result with twice the effort, and he could never become a Heavenly Immortal; he would have to endure another tribulation.
She hoped Shi Feiyang held this arrogance: "The earlier cultivation techniques of the Blood God Scripture aren't a problem, but the last few chapters are incredibly formidable, profound, and abstruse. If you wish to glimpse its mysteries, it's not impossible; just do not blame me if you cannot resist and become consumed by it, falling into the Demon Path."
Hearing her half-enticing, half-provocative tone, Shi Feiyang chuckled: "There's no need. I mean, I'm using you to refine a scripture, not asking you to co-author one with me."
His fingers tapped in the air, and a large volume of scriptures from the Demon God Scripture flew out, flooding into Red Flower Princess's body.
Red Flower Princess, receiving the contents of the Demon God Scripture, felt both timid and puzzled: "What are you planning to do by using me to refine a scripture? Why let me know what's in the Demon Scripture?"
Shi Feiyang laid out his plans to her without reservation.
The Demon God Scripture is a top-tier demonic text containing the Sovereign Demon God E Shengfan.
The Blood God Scripture is also a top-tier demonic text; the main body of Red Flower Princess was transformed from the Evil Book, making her its Sovereign Demon God.
Currently, E Shengfan is with Xin Ru Nun, suppressed by her with the Conch Leaf Talisman and Seven Treasures Golden Banner. Unable to retrieve it, he plans to merge the two demonic texts into a new demonic scripture.
"This new Blood Demon Scripture will have you as the Sovereign Divine Demon. You first help me capture E Shengfan back, and then I will reunite you with Deng Yin."
Red Flower Princess instinctually sensed something amiss. Though Shi Feiyang spoke lightly, her demonic instinct and divine skills foresaw a path of no return and endless calamity.
She shook her head vigorously: "You are a True Immortal of the Mysterious Sect's orthodox lineage; you can't do this to me. I don't want the two scriptures to merge, nor do I want to be the Sovereign Divine Demon of any Blood Demon Scripture!"
Shi Feiyang stared at her quietly, expression serious, as his powerful divine thought pressure descended like a vast sea.
Red Flower Princess realized she was no match, now a fish on the chopping board, subject to slaughter. She turned to cry in pleading: "Please, don't do this to me..."
Shi Feiyang sighed: "Alright, since you're so unwilling, I won't force you. But if you refuse to help me, you're of no use. Sending you to Deng Yin like this only for him to continue with his Demonized World and world-ending method... I'll destroy you with Purple and Blue Duoluo Fire, along with the Evil Book of Blood God Scripture..."
As he finished, he casually flicked his hand, releasing ten blossoms of Purple And Blue Divine Flames that circled the scriptures, enclosing Red Flower Princess within.
There are few things in this world that can destroy the Blood God Scripture, but the Purple and Blue Duoluo Fire is one of them.
Even Purple and Blue Duoluo Fire wouldn't be enough alone. Li Yingqiong also possessed this fire, but its power was too weak. Her three flames were only lamp blossoms formed over a millennium, even using all three might not destroy the Blood God Scripture unless supplemented with lamp oil, which Shi Feiyang happened to have in abundance as Ancient Divine Oil.
"No..."
Red Flower Princess knew that if she didn't obediently comply, she would be completely obliterated.
She sobbed, kneeling on the scripture, pleading with Shi Feiyang: "Just ask that the True Master keep his promise, that after I help him complete this, he will send me to Deng Yin."
"Rest assured, I will surely reunite you two."
Receiving his assurance, Red Flower Princess finally resigned and willingly cooperated.
This matter truly required her willing cooperation; otherwise, the two scriptures couldn't merge, given she was the Sovereign Demon God of the Blood God Scripture.
Shi Feiyang released the Nine-Grade Green Lotus, transforming it into an emerald Lotus Platform, spreading the demonic scripture upon it.
From within the lotus pod, nine streams of green vapor spewed forth, lifting the demonic scripture. He summoned the Nine Child Mother Sky Demon to encircle the surroundings and drew the Heavenly Secret Demon Divine Flame from the Red Lotus Hell.
Then, he injected a stream of Pure Yang Immortal Qi as a power supplement, causing the pages of the Demon God Scripture to rustle and flip incessantly, the entire scripture's text flying out, enveloping Red Flower Princess from head to toe, seeping in.
The scripture became a blank white volume, as Red Flower Princess sat cross-legged, suspended, striving to digest the contents within the demonic scripture.
Shi Feiyang instructed Red Flower Princess to first masterfully practice everything from the Demon God Scripture; this process took over a hundred days. Once she fully mastered it, he gathered the Secret Demon Divine Flame to envelop and incinerate her—this was Soul Refinement. Red Flower Princess, being a millennia-old demon, had experienced all forms of agony and gritted her teeth to endure.
Finally, Red Flower Princess's body completely merged with the demonic flame, becoming a mass of flesh and blood. Shi Feiyang then injected immortal energy to bolster the demon fire's power, and over seven times seven, forty-nine days, refined her into a pool of bloodwater.
Shi Feiyang pressed down with a single hand, causing the bloodwater to scatter onto the book's pages, seeping in quickly.
The entire demonic scripture seemed soaked in bloodwater, drenched in blood.
Shi Feiyang continued casting, retrieving a Heavenly Stars Secret Demon Divine Shuttle, intoning a secret spell, and engraving the Circulation God Talisman upon the Divine Shuttle before inserting it into the scripture.
