Sneaking In the Inheritance Site

Han Ji placed the Blood Bead inside the slot and the terrifying vitality in the Bead was sucked away in an instant. A beautiful but bloody pattern surrounded the Node,

TREMBLE~

As the pattern trembled Han Ji felt as if the whole world cooperated with the rhythm and the laws mutated. Elder Chao has covered in cold sweat his connection with laws was severed as well

BANG BANG BANG

The barrier of the 6th, 7th and 8th fold was broken in succession followed by a

BOOOOOM

The barrier of 9th space shattered and a terrifying space storm blasted towards Han Ji but it only blew his hair and couldn't even scrape his clothes. A blood-red door appeared before Han Ji. He was a bit disappointed cause the site wasn't in the 10th fold since that indicates this Inheritance belongs to a Stage-9 Nirvana saint. But he lifted his mood quickly and walked inside with Wu Yun. Elder Chao stayed outside since the site won't allow entry of a saint. The space healed but the door remained open. Elder Chao knocked Chen Xuan unconscious and threw him inside a cave. He sat down crosslegged and started meditating.

********

A few hours later

Miles away from Anyang Mo Dao jumped out from the distortion of space. Mo Dao was covered in a black robe from head to toe not leaving an inch of his body visible. His skin was still brass in color and Mo Dao didn't want to be the centre of attention thus he opted to hide his appearance. Dwanwu Xing and the other two also covered their faces since at the moment they were wanted by the whole empire for the assassination of the Crown Prince.

HUUM

Mo Dao flew towards Anyang but before reaching the gates he directly teleported inside. As Mo Dao walked deeper into the province he raised his head and stared above, Mo Dao was staring at the airship that was hidden inside the space. A saint can easily perceive its existence but it'll be impossible for a Grandmaster.

Mo Dao entered a restaurant and ordered some dishes and soon a kid came with them. Mo Dao threw a gold coin which was a lot more than the payment

"Tell me anything special that happened in Anyang recently."

The waiter was startled by the generosity but he quickly put it inside

"The biggest sensation is the return of Chen Xuan from Martial Soul sect. He came with his junior sister rumors say she's more beautiful than a fairy and both of them have eloped with each other. Other than that a celebration is announced by province head Xie Xuan to welcome Chen Xuan."

Mo Dao guessed the death of his subordinates might be related to Chen Xuan.

"That's enough."

"Thank you senior" the waiter bowed to Mo Dao but the next moment he was stunned since the seats were empty. Mo Dao did not appreciate his thanks since many people had seen the gold coin he threw and the boy might not survive by tomorrow.

Mo Dao stood before the mansion of Chen family. Mo Dao had promised Ciany to destroy Chen family but Ciany is already dead.

"How many auras do you sense?" Mo Dao asked Dwanwu Xing. A saint can only be detected by either revealing his aura voluntarily or by another saint when his body is scanned with divine sense. Dwanwu cannot scan otherwise his existence will be revealed.

"There are two saints at the main office probably stage-1or2 and one is within Chen family comparable to me. I suspect another saint is at the airship."

Mo Dao nodded and warped outside of Anyang. He appeared a few miles away from the valley where he was supposed to meet with Wu Yun.

"Scan that valley."

Dwanwu stretched his divine sense and scanned the valley unscrupulously.

"An unconscious boy and a Stage-6 saint, I felt six different laws from him."

Inside the valley, Elder Chao opened his eyes they were filled with anger and gloom. A divine sense from a weaker being scanned his body which is unacceptable for someone like him but he closed his eyes back and sat down while his divine sense locked onto Dwanwu Xing.

"Lure him away and if he doesn't pursue just distract him for a while." Mo Dao walked away from the location

BANG BANG BOOOOM

Mo Dao entered the 8th fold and bombarded the 9th fold till an opening was created and entered inside. Meanwhile

CRACKLE~~

BANG BANG BOOM

Liu Tingshen bombarded the valley with lightning and shadows rose from different locations striking Elder Chao and Chen Xuan. Chao Heng was getting annoyed but he did not attack back rather black sickles rose from his body destroying the thunder and leaving a deep gash in the sky the whole valley got shrouded by the aura of death and decay. Other laws disappeared from both the sky and valley leaving death and decay. The rocks started to rot and all vegetation died in the surroundings

BAM

Dwanwu popped out behind Chao Heng and darkness converged in his hand taking shape of a pitch-black claw aiming for Chao Heng's head but

BOOOM

CRUSH

Another pitch-black claw caught his attack and a ghastly voice resounded throughout the valley

"You have a death wish?"

BOOOOM

CRACK

A kick landed on Dwanwu's chest blasting him through several mountains and boulders.

"cough cough" Dwanwu coughed out blood with pieces of internal organs. His chest started to rot rapidly all of his hair turned white and his internal organs started to decay. He couldn't heal properly the cells in his body started to break down and remnants of death law nibbled down his vitality.

Mo Dao took a step and crossed miles in an instant. He appeared before the gate and was sucked inside

BOOM

Dwanwu inserted his hands in the soil and thick vitality rushed into his body while the ground turned barren and unhabitable. The plants wilted and water was absorbed by the barren land. All life disappeared from the surrounding. A saint will not die even with the most serious injuries since he can steal vitality from the world itself but doing so harms the world and requires a lot of time to recover thus it is forbidden. Dwanwu's injuries stabilised and he slowly started to recover.

Mo Dao was teleported into a hall. There was a dry pond of blood and a library with some miscellaneous cultivation knowledge and skills. Mo Dao walked deeper there were several rooms and all of them were open. Mo Dao entered a room and there was a set of blood-red armor and a double-edged axe lying beside it. Mo Dao touched the armor it was made of special material. A stele was placed beside it describing the origin of armor and axe

[This Armor and Axe belonged to the crimson king from my third conquest in another world, he was a fearsome foe but fell to my sword.]

The explanation was concise but gave Mo Dao a lot of ideas. He heard from Dwanwu about the existence of other worlds but he has no idea about the astral realm.

BANG

Mo Dao lifted the axe and the whole floor trembled. It weighed more than 30 tons. Mo Dao's veins were visible and he felt satisfied from bottom of his heart. Mo Dao left the armor but took the axe with him. Mo Dao placed a drop of original blood on the axe and it got absorbed. He infused Vital Energy, the axe trembled a bloody shine appeared on the blades and its weight increased. He cannot access his space ring thus there's no place to store the armor but the axe might come in handy since he has to slaughter a thief.

As Mo Dao walked ahead he checked the rooms one by one some of them contained treasures and cultivation techniques while many had useful items with miscellaneous use such as clothes and jewellery. Mo Dao also liked a bunch of clothes made of monster skin he tried tearing them but it was useless. Mo Dao used his axe and sliced all of them but a few survived those deadly attacks and Mo Dao chose black pants and a short robe from them. He also noticed many items were missing from several rooms. Mo Dao walked some more and reached a big hall 5 to 6 times larger than the one at the start. There was a pool of blood containing terrifying vitality and multiple ferocious auras. Few words were inscribed on the stele

[Before inheritance of knowledge the successor needs to inherit my strength by assimilating the blood of hundred opponents defeated by me and undergo Nirvana through the Law of Blood. I don't know who you're but I hope you'll be able to survive and be reborn as a fearsome warrior.]

"cough...cough...leader is that you"

Mo Dao walked ahead and found Wu Yun lying in his pool of blood. All his limbs were chopped and blood came out from his left thigh and shoulder it entered back from his right thigh and shoulder. No vitality was lost in the process and Wu Yun can easily survive for decades in this manner. Mo Dao touched Wu Yun's shoulders his fingers started to rot and a deathly aura pervaded his body trying to devour his vitality.

"Laws of Death and Decay?"

Wu Yun nodded back in affirmation. He couldn't heal since his injury was caused by law and Wu Yun was that he was alive cause Han Ji had no intention of killing thus he silently operated his domain and sustained his life.

Mo Dao placed his hand on Wu Yun's chest and infused thick vitality combined with the law of fire which expelled the remnants of Death law and his limbs started to regenerate. Mo Dao stood up and looked at the blood pool. In the middle of the pool, a pulsating cacoon silently absorbed the nutrients and vitality from the blood and nurtured the human silhouette inside it. Mo Dao was locked on by his divine sense as long as Mo Dao attacks a battle will ensue.

"Who is he?"

"I'm not sure but the laws of Death and Decay are mainly used by the Black Lotus sect. I was knocked unconscious and when my eyes opened I was already incapacitated."

"Anything else I should know?"

"If you receive the inheritance of strength then you'll have to undergo Nirvana by using the Law of Blood."

"I know anything else."

"The kid lying outside is Chen Xuan he was the one who killed Luo Hen and Ciany."

"What about the Inheritance of knowledge."

"That...you need to insert the blood bead in the head of that statue and you'll gain the inheritance of Knowledge."

"And where exactly is the Blood bead?"

"He snatched it from me."

"Oh"

SLAP

A slap made Wu Yun's head spin.

"Don't hide anything from me, What did I speak?"

"I am sorry leader it won't happen again."

SLAP

Another slap knocked teeth out of his mouth

"I won't hide anything from now on."

"As long as you understand." Wu Yun was more loyal to the Blood Demon sect which irked Mo Dao greatly. As a Blood warrior responsible for a whole Inheritance site Wu Yun must know plenty of secrets about the Blood Demon Sect and for that reason, both Han Ji and Chen Xuan were unwilling to kill him but Mo Dao has no such qualms. Soul Brand only activates in case of direct betrayal thus Wu Yun answers every query of Mo Dao but he would not reveal any information about Blood Demon Sect voluntarily.

Mo Dao walked closer to the Blood pond. Some clothes were placed neatly along with a sword that belonged to a room of the inheritance site, a mysterious shroud that couldn't be sensed by divine sense and a space ring with carvings of ghosts and demons. Mo Dao took the space ring and pinched it

BANG

A short explosion occurred and everything was poured outside. Mo Dao lifted a golden Box from the bunch and opened it. Inside were two blood beads one was dimmer while the other one was brighter and filled with vigorous vitality. Mo Dao took the Brighter one and walked towards the statue.
