A Millionfold Return: My Children Cultivate Immortality, I Become a God - Chapter 145

Chapter 145: The Awakened Sect Master of the Blood Soul Sect!

Meanwhile, in front of the blood cocoon, Elder Hua and the elders of the Blood Soul Sect beneath the Immortal Emperor stood before the blood cocoon, their expressions extremely grave.

“Elder Hua, how do we awaken the Sect Master?” one of the peak Immortal Venerable elders asked Elder Hua. Earlier, Xue Yuan had informed them that they needed to awaken the Sect Master, or else the Blood Soul Sect would be destroyed by the powerful beings from the Upper Realm.

The situation was urgent, so they did not have time to delve into details and could only follow Elder Hua to the front of the giant cocoon. Upon reaching the cocoon, they finally had the opportunity to inquire of Elder Hua.

Elder Hua let out a sigh and, looking at the gathered elders, said slowly, “It is simple: you will use your own blood essence to awaken the Sect Master!”

“What? No, we need to escape!” Upon hearing Elder Hua’s words, the elders’ hearts sank. They turned to flee, but before Elder Hua, a late-stage Immortal Emperor, they had no power to resist.

In an instant, they were controlled by Elder Hua and sent to stand before the giant cocoon, where they were absorbed cleanly.

After the blood essence of dozens of Immortal Venerable elders was absorbed, a wave of terrifying aura emanated from within the blood cocoon, causing Li Pangtian and the others, who were fighting with Xue Yuan, to feel a sense of dread.

“This is bad; there’s movement deep within the Blood Soul Sect! You all stay here; I will go check it out!” After saying this, Li Pangtian manipulated the Ancient Bell and charged toward the depths of the Blood Soul Sect. Although the Immortal Emperor elders of the Blood Soul Sect wanted to stop him upon witnessing this scene, they were in no position to do so. They could only hope that the Sect Master would awaken soon.

At the same time, upon seeing that the Sect Master was about to awaken, Elder Hua decided to leave as well. She needed to rush to aid the Holy Son; otherwise, if Li Pangtian and the others arrived and disrupted the Sect Master’s awakening, it would be disastrous.

However, just as Elder Hua turned around, she spotted Li Pangtian rushing toward her. “This is not good!” Elder Hua thought to herself. The Sect Master was currently in the most critical phase of awakening, and it absolutely could not be disrupted.

With that in mind, Elder Hua resolutely charged forward, and in the next moment, she engaged in fierce battle with Li Pangtian. “Get away from me!”

Li Pangtian’s expression was one of extreme anger as he manipulated the Ancient Bell to strike at Elder Hua. Without the enhancement of a ninth-grade Immortal Emperor artifact, Elder Hua was naturally no match for Li Pangtian. However, she could still buy some time for the Sect Master to awaken.

After Li Pangtian fiercely repelled Elder Hua with the Ancient Bell, he charged toward the blood cocoon, intent on interrupting the Blood Soul Sect Master’s revival. Suddenly, a terrifying aura surged forth from the blood cocoon. The next moment, a fist emerged from within the cocoon, rushing toward Li Pangtian. Fear gripped Li Pangtian’s heart as he sensed an unstoppable force emanating from that fist.

In a moment of desperation, Li Pangtian raised the Ancient Bell to defend himself, but it was futile; he was directly sent flying by the fist.

Meanwhile, within the Wu Family, Wu Hao’s expression also darkened as he sensed the situation at the Blood Soul Sect, realizing something was terribly wrong. If Li Pangtian and the others couldn’t hold their ground, he would have to lead the Wu Family to escape.

At the same time, Jun Xiaoyao and the others wore grave expressions upon seeing Li Pangtian being thrown back. It should be noted that although Li Pangtian was only at the late stage of Immortal Emperor, due to his Ancient Dao Body, even those at the Immortal Emperor Pinnacle might not stand a chance against him. Yet here he was, being sent flying.

Seeing this scene, Xue Yuan and the others shouted, “Hold on a little longer! The Sect Master has awakened, and their doom is at hand!”

Jun Xiaoyao and the others quickly supported Li Pangtian, while the powerful figures present couldn’t help but glance toward the depths of the Blood Soul Sect, swallowing hard with anxiety evident on their faces.

Then, in the next moment, they saw the Sect Master of the Blood Soul Sect, clad in red, slowly appearing, with Elder Hua, looking obedient, standing beside him.

“Bow to the Sect Master!” Upon witnessing this scene, the elders of the Blood Soul Sect hastily knelt before the Sect Master. The Sect Master lightly nodded in acknowledgment, and Xue Yuan hurried to stand before him.

“Father!”

“Hmm, you did well during my absence,” the Sect Master of the Blood Soul Sect said softly, and joy filled Xue Yuan’s face at being recognized.

As for Li Pangtian and the others, their hearts sank. At that moment, even if they wanted to flee, it was already too late; they could only fight to the death.

“You are the cultivators who survived that battle by luck back then? Instead of thinking of how to prolong your lives, you dare to come to the territory of my Blood Soul Sect. Are you not afraid of death?”

“You don’t need to say more; if you want to fight, then let’s fight, Blood Soul Sect Master, Blood Emperor!”

After Li Pangtian finished speaking, he sent a message to the four late-stage Immortal Emperors, instructing them that while he would go ahead and hold off the Blood Emperor, they should restrain him from the side. The Blood Emperor had just awakened, and they might not be unable to fight him.

He also messaged the remaining Immortal Emperors present to quickly eliminate the Blood Soul Sect cultivators around them and come to offer their support.

However, what Li Pangtian and the others did not expect was that the Blood Emperor had no intention of fighting them at all. After all, the Blood Emperor had just awakened, and his realm was only at half-step divine; he was aware of the strength of Li Pangtian and the others. If a real fight broke out, he wouldn’t be able to protect his descendants.

Most importantly, he sensed another powerful aura not far away, one that was even stronger than his own. The Blood Emperor could not determine whether this person was friend or foe; if they intervened, it would only worsen the current situation.

Thus, it was crucial to first lead the Blood Soul Sect away from here, and after he formally became a god, an existence above the Immortal Emperor, he could settle the score with them later.

According to the Blood Emperor’s own perception, he just needed ten thousand years to achieve godhood. By then, no one in the Upper Realm would be his opponent. Of course, the most important thing was that he did not believe anyone could break through to a level capable of competing with him in just ten thousand years.

“Alright, this time I will let you go, but next time, you won’t be so lucky.”

With that, the Blood Emperor waved his hand, directly taking Xue Yuan and the others away from there. As for the restrictions left by the Ancient Holy Lord and others in the God Burial Valley, they were nothing in front of the revived Blood Emperor; they were as good as nonexistent.

Watching the Blood Emperor leave, Li Pangtian and the others felt a surge of anxiety, but at the same time, there was a glimmer of relief. If the Blood Emperor had truly chosen to attack, they might not have had a chance against him collectively.
