Chapter 1781 - A Dumbfounding Choice

“What…what’s happening?”

Qin Nan, Yuanji, Xu Lai, and the rest of the cultivators were astounded.

Especially the former, as they knew what each piece of treasure was.

But why would they suddenly react for no reason?

“Does that mean…”

Doom suddenly thought of something. His blood-red eyes widened. He immediately withdrew his presence without any hesitation and went deep into the Heaven-Repairing Cauldron.

Qin Nan sharply noticed Doom’s reaction. However, an unexpected occurrence took place before he could ask about it.

The entire Eight-Tinkling Ancient Temple began to emit an indescribable Bodhi glow. The temple that was initially around a few thousand zhang wide suddenly enlarged by countless times, turning into a vast Bodhi s.p.a.ce.

Qin Nan, Yuanji, and the others subconsciously raised their heads as they sensed something. They saw a golden Buddha around a thousand zhang sitting on a lotus throne toward the end of the sky.

They were like mere ants in front of the golden Buddha. The Buddha could easily crush them with the pinch of his fingers.

However, that was not the end of it.

ROAR!

A thunderous roar exploded in the vast Bodhi s.p.a.ce. Four ferocious beasts like ancient mountains came out from the void with an overwhelming presence.

On the other hand, an ancient grave tablet over ten thousand zhang tall, a giant painting that could seemingly devour the Heavens and Earth, and two vague figures had also appeared toward the end of the sky.

“The will of every piece of treasure…is awakened?”

Qin Nan and Yuanji exchanged glances with one another. They could see great astonishment in each other’s eyes.

Why would these things be awakened all of a sudden?

As for Xu Lai and the others, apart from a few of them, everyone else was completely dumbfounded upon witnessing the scene before them.

“Kill!”

The four savage beasts uttered a hoa.r.s.e roar and charged at the demon blood on the altar with an imperious aura.

The golden Buddha, ancient grave tablet, enormous painting, and the two figures with vague outlines made their moves too, and each of them was scarier than the four beasts.

An enormous hand emitting a Bodhi glow, a blinding light that could destroy everything, a sword that was refined with the power of life and destruction, and a primordial force with the power to create a new world!

“You mere ants dare to oppose my blood?”

A disdainful ancient voice suddenly echoed in the s.p.a.ce.

An indescribable demonic figure appeared as if it had traversed a great distance. It threw a punch forward.

A destructive force immediately shattered everything into pieces.

The golden Buddha, the ancient grave tablet, the enormous painting, the two vague figures, and the four beasts, even the entire s.p.a.ce had vanished into thin air.

Everything returned to normal, as if everything that happened was nothing but a mere illusion.

However, if anyone was to take a close look, they would discover that the Eight-Tinkling Ancient Temple, the statues of the Primordial People, the Nameless Grave Tablet, the Painting of Life and Destruction, and the statues of the four Primordial Evils had several new cracks on them.

“That almost scared me to death…”

Ling Lanlan’s face was pale too. She kept patting on her chest.

She had experienced the same scene several times, but it was the first time that the artifacts had shown such a strong resistance.

Meanwhile, Qin Nan, Yuanji, and the cultivators were utterly dumbfounded by the destructive force unleashed by the demonic figure. They had yet to recover from the shock.

“I see, I understand now! The drop of demon blood, it must be his blood!”

Doom’s excited voice echoed in Qin Nan’s mind. If he was paying some attention, he could easily notice the shock in Doom’s voice, and a hint of…

Fear!

“Who? Who exactly does the drop of demon blood belong to?”

Qin Nan asked as he collected his thoughts.

Although he was not a demon cultivator, he was extremely curious about the owner of the demon blood.

“It must be him, it must be his blood! It explains why a single drop of his blood could force so many artifacts to submit to it!”

Doom did not answer the question. He sounded extremely excited still.

It was obvious that even the second-rank Primordial Evil was greatly astounded too after learning the ident.i.ty of the demon blood’s owner. He needed some time to recover from the shock too.

Qin Nan was about to ask further when the demon blood on the altar floated on its own. It emitted two demon rays at the Eight Brilliance Demon Emperor and Xiao Yiyu.

The Eight Brilliance Demon Emperor and Xiao Yiyu opened their eyes simultaneously. A demonic glow flickered within them as their bodies began to unleash a magnificent demon will.

“The Scriptures of the Eight Brilliance Demon!”

“The Internecine Demon Art!”

The two simultaneously executed the demon art they practiced, to fully unleash their demon will over the demon blood.

They were like two disciples trying to display their achievements to obtain their master’s approval.

“Please claim the demon blood!”

Ling Lanlan clenched her fists tightly upon collecting her thoughts.

Qin Nan, Yuanji, Blood-Eye, Xiu Shenliang, Xu Lai, and the rest of the cultivators s.h.i.+fted their attention to the demon blood.

The demon blood suddenly moved, heading straight toward the Eight Brilliance Demon Emperor and Xiao Yiyu.

BANG!

A formidable force came out of nowhere and struck the Eight Brilliance Demon Emperor on the chest. The man groaned in pain as he was knocked flying into the distance

“F**k me! Are you serious?”

The Eight Brilliance Demon Emperor cursed with a twisted look.

“c.r.a.p!”

Doom’s eyes widened too after seeing what happened.

He had figured out where the drop of demon blood was from. If Xiao Yiyu successfully claimed it, not only would he rise in the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm, he could claim everything in the temple too.

“HAHAHA, the demon blood is mine!”

Xiao Yiyu immediately burst out laughing. He was extremely excited. He quickly reached his hand out to grab the demon blood.

Xu Lai and the other cultivators were unaware of the details, but their faces were filled with joy too.

BANG!

However, when Xiao Yiyu’s hand was only an inch away from the demon blood, the same force burst out of the demon blood and hit Xiao Yiyu in the chest.

The demon will inside Xiao Yiyu’s body did not even dare to resist it. He took the hit directly and let out a painful cry. He slammed heavily on the ground far away covered in blood. His appearance was several times worse than the Eight Brilliance Demon Emperor.

“This…”

Ling Lanlan was stunned. The Eight Brilliance Demon Emperor was stunned. Doom and everyone else were stunned too.

What was going on?

The two had clearly awakened the demon blood, yet why did it knock both of them flying?

Meanwhile, an unbelievable scene took place.

The demon blood shuddered vigorously and emitted a tremendous glow, before das.h.i.+ng forward at a shocking pace.

A second later, it went into…

Qin Nan’s body!
