Chapter 865 - Bubbles in the Blood Sea
Escape!
That was his only shot at survival.
The difference in strength between two cultivation realms was great.
Ordinary escape techniques would not be useful against the pursuit of high-level fiend demons – he could only survive if he released Blood Escape!
Right then, Su Zimo swept his gaze and caught sight of an unsettling image.
One after another, gigantic bubbles appeared from the depths of the Blood Sea.
It was as though a living being was hiding in the depths of the dark sea and had just let out a breath!
Although the seven high-level fiend demons that entered the sea caught sight of it as well, none of them took it to heart.
The seven of them encircled Su Zimo in the middle expressionlessly with cold gazes as though they were looking at a dead person.
The gigantic bubbles that appeared from the bottom of the sea floated. Some of the brushed past Su Zimo but some of them engulfed the seven fiend demons!
The seven of them were unprepared.
Or rather, none of them saw the need to feel guarded against bubbles.
An uneasy feeling surged into Su Zimo’s heart when he caught sight of the seven high-level fiend demons engulfed by the bubbles.
Immediately after, right under his very eyes, one of the fiend demons in the bubbles exploded into a blood mist!
Psst!
Su Zimo jumped in shock and almost swallowed the seawater around him!
He was dead!
A high-level fiend demon whose strength was equivalent to a Dharma Characteristic of the human race was destroyed along with his Essence Spirit right in front of Su Zimo!
Initially, the gigantic bubble was transparent.
However, at that moment, the bubble was dyed red with the blood that spewed out of the fiend demon’s body!
The blood-colored bubble did not pop and continued floating upwards!
Su Zimo felt his neck go stiff and his limbs turn cold. A chill ran down his spine along with goosebumps.
Poof! Poof! Poof!
Immediately after, Su Zimo heard explosions.
The explosions sounded like marks of death and made him shudder!
A single possibility crossed Su Zimo’s mind as he held his breath and turned around slowly.
Although he was prepared for it, his heart skipped a violent beat and his pupils constricted.
True enough!
The six high-level fiend demons that were initially surrounding him had already vanished, leaving six blood-colored bubbles that floated slowly upwards!
They were all dead!
The seven high-level fiend demons had just entered the Blood Sea but were destroyed along with their Essence Spirits by these unknown gigantic bubbles!
Immense fear filled his mind.
In Su Zimo’s path of cultivation, he rose from the bottom and defeated all the paragons in his way. He overwhelmed powerful foes and was unmatched within the same cultivation realm!
He had escaped death countless times and had even wandered into a forbidden ground like the Dragon Bone Valley. Yet, he had never felt such fear before.
Was it pure coincidence that the bubble brushed past him earlier on?
Su Zimo did not dare to continue along that line of thought.
After a brief pause, he sped towards the surface of the sea in a flash!
…
The skies above the Blood Sea.
The Overlords of Levitating Goat Peak, Silvermoon Valley, Thousand Snake Island and Confusion Mist Swamp imbued the bone cage at the same time to trap the old ape.
The old ape fought with his full strength but could not break free.
The four Overlords could not injure the old ape who was within the bone cage either.
Although it seemed like both sides were in a stalemate on the surface, everybody could tell that the old ape was put in a passive position!
As long as the seven high-level fiend demons that entered the Blood Sea managed to capture Su Zimo, the old ape would have to admit defeat in fear of the consequences.
Although the battle was ongoing, the Overlord of Levitating Goat Peak and the others frowned slightly.
The seven high-level fiend demons had entered the Blood Sea for quite some time now, but why was there no activity?
Did the seven of them need to spend so much time against a low-level fiend demon?
Right then, as though they sensed something, the seven Overlords turned over and gazed at the Blood Sea not far away.
The surface of the sea was calm and peaceful.
Suddenly!
A blood-colored bubble rose from the surface of the sea and popped. Within it, a corpse could be seen faintly before it sank rapidly into the depths of the sea.
“That corpse…”
The Overlords present frowned slightly.
Although they could not see his appearance, the shape of the corpse seemed like he was one of the seven high-level fiend demons!
Immediately after, blood-colored bubbles rose from the surface of the sea one after another.
They exploded at the same time!
Six corpses could faintly be seen!
Coupled with the corpse earlier, there were a total of seven.
This time round, the seven Overlords saw everything clearly – the seven corpses corresponded exactly to the seven high-level fiend demons that entered the Blood Sea!
Almost at the same time, the terrifying rumors about the Thousand Year Blood Sea crossed the minds of the demons present.
These rumors were rarely taken seriously.
However, at this moment, the demons realized that there was a high chance that those rumors were real!
Many fiend demons shuddered and moved to increase their distance from the Blood Sea immediately.
Swoosh!
Suddenly, a splash could be heard.
A tall and mighty figure leaped out of the Blood Sea!
All the demons were in an uproar!
Who would have thought that somebody was still alive within the Blood Sea when even high-level fiend demons had died within?!
If there was a single survivor from the Blood Sea, there was a high probability that this was the killer of the seven high-level fiend demons!
Who wouldn’t be wary of this mysterious and powerful existence?
The demons exclaimed and scurried in all directions.
Even the Overlords present retreated by instinct!
In the blink of an eye, it was empty above the Blood Sea – not a single fiend demon remained behind.
“Eh? He looks familiar.”
“He looks like…”
“Goodness, it’s Mo! He’s still alive!”
The demons in the crowd exclaimed.
A hundred foot tall figure stood above the Blood Sea like a gigantic fiendcelestial. He had shoulder-length scarlet hair, piercing eyes and a torrential aura as blood qi spread!
Although his body undertook a significant transformation, there was no doubt from his appearance that he was Mo – the demons recognized him right away.
The Overlords of Levitating Goat Peak and the other territories had solemn expressions and did not charge over right away.
They could not make out who Mo truly was and how strong exactly was he.
One after another, spirit consciousnesses shot over.
Before long, the demons scanned Su Zimo’s cultivation.
Although his cultivation realm increased, he was still just a low-level fiend demon!
The Overlords of Levitating Goat Peak and the other territories exchanged glances and snapped out of their stupor before long.
Mo should have had nothing to do with the deaths of the seven high-level fiend demons!
It might have just been due to luck that he was able to make it out of the Blood Sea alive!
The reason for that was because they caught sight of a hint of panic and fear in Su Zimo’s eyes.
At that thought, the Overlord of Levitating Goat Peak’s face was filled with killing intent and he growled deeply. “The three of you, hold back this old monkey. I’m going to go slaughter that lowlife!”
By the time his sentence was completed, the Overlord of Levitating Goat Peak had already vanished from the spot.
“Old goat, how dare you!”
The old ape roared furiously and charged against the bone cage once more.
Boom!
The bone cage shook but was not damaged still.
Although the Dharmic power on the bone cage had weakened with one less spirit consciousness, it was still imbued with the full strength of the Overlords of Silvermoon Valley, Thousand Snake Island and Confusion Mist Swamp.
It would be extremely difficult for the old ape to break free within a short period of time!
After Su Zimo left the Blood Sea and caught sight of the situation before him, he composed himself quickly.
The old ape was trapped and the Overlord of Golden Flames Mountain was in a difficult position – nobody could save him if the Overlord of Levitating Goat Peak insisted on killing him!
At that thought, Su Zimo was decisive and turned to flee right away!
The moment the killing intent rose in the heart of Levitating Goat Peak’s Overlord, Su Zimo had already escaped.
“Hold him back!”
The Overlord of Levitating Goat Peak roared.
There were more than ten high-level fiend demons that had already withdrawn themselves to charge towards Su Zimo.
