Chapter 1032: Chapter 894: Is He the Blood Emperor?_3 Chapter 1032: Chapter 894: Is He the Blood Emperor?_3 “Those people outside, they are truly detestable,” sneered someone within the tower. “It is clear that those Ghost Practitioners are trying to kill them, yet they dare to curse Lin Yun, the Saint Lord, and True Martial Saint Lord. What a joke! Such people don’t deserve to be saved!”
“Lin Yun, the Saint Lord, and True Martial Saint Lord, must not go out! Both Lin Yun, the Saint Lord, and True Martial Saint Lord are young, especially Lin Yun, the Saint Lord, who is very young. He will quickly progress to a higher realm, surpass those Ghost Practitioners. Then, he can annihilate those Ghost Practitioners outside and avenge the spirit beings of Immortal Origin World and Earth! If they really go outside, that will be the end! Presumably, those Ghost Practitioners have also realized this, hence they threaten Lin Yun, the Saint Lord, and True Martial Saint Lord so much! If Lin Yun, the Saint Lord, and True Martial Saint Lord really go out, they will fall right into their trap!”
“As the saying goes, ‘a ghost’s word carries no weight.’ How can we believe the words of these Ghost Practitioners?”
…
The third day passed, and again, hundreds of millions of beings from Immortal Origin World and Earth were slain.
The fourth day passed… the fifth day passed…
It continued like this.
Whether outside the Heavenly Principle Tower or within, the uproar had reached its peak.
In the blink of an eye, the sixth day was about to pass…
“The sixth day has passed, kill!”
The Tri-Headed Dog Ghost Practitioner did not even open its eyes but spoke slowly with its eyes closed.
During this time, it had devoured hundreds of millions from the Immortal Origin World and Earth, significantly increasing its strength, thoroughly relishing the souls it was consuming. 𝓷ℴ𝓿𝓹𝓾𝓫.𝓬ℴ𝓶
“Hm?”
Just then, it suddenly felt an alarm in its heart and hastily dodged to the side while opening its eyes.
“Hiss!”
The next moment, a deep gash appeared where it had been just before, and it could sense the terror of that blood mark; had it not moved away in time, it would have undoubtedly been severely injured.
“Lin Yun?”
The Tri-Headed Dog Ghost Practitioner’s pupils shrank as it stared at a very young human figure in front of it and said slowly.
In front of it, a young man in white was hovering in the starry sky, his face cold as he looked back at it.
This young man in white, with the likeness of the human Lin Yun that it had seen before, was now facing it in reality for the first time.
Its heart was anything but calm; it knew that just a few years ago, when a few lower Saint Lord Level Ghost Practitioners encountered this Lin Yun, he was at the second or third level of the Super Realm.
How many years had passed? Lin Yun had already broken through to the middle Saint Lord Realm!
The middle Saint Lord Realm, and even possessing strength comparable to a powerful lower Saint Lord!
This rate of cultivation was truly terrifying!
Reportedly, this Lin Yun was only in his thirties!
If several more years were given to him, what would become of him then?
“You dog-like creature, who gave you the audacity to threaten me, the Emperor? Could it be that I have not shown up in the Netherworld for so long, the Ghost Practitioners there have forgotten the renowned name of the Blood Emperor?”
However, it was at this moment, Lin Yun, amidst the stars, opened his mouth, his voice ice-cold as he spoke.
As soon as he spoke, it was to scold, and within his tone, there emanated a breath of endless majesty.
“Buzz!”
As his voice fell, Lin Yun’s body emitted a dazzling blood-red light tens of thousands of feet high.
“What?”
On the other side, the Tri-Headed Dog Ghost Practitioner was staring fixedly at Lin Yun, pondering how to capture him when it suddenly heard Lin Yun’s words, especially the last two words, “Blood Emperor.” Its face immediately changed color, and its heart skipped a beat at once.
Blood Emperor? This Lin Yun… was the legendary Blood Emperor of the Netherworld?
A person’s reputation is significant; it fell instantly cold, and couldn’t help trembling all over.
Who was the Blood Emperor? He was one of the Nine Emperors of the Netherworld and rumored to be one of the stronger ones at that!
The Nine Emperors of the Netherworld, each one was a terrifying existence, not to mention the Blood Emperor, who was one of the stronger Ghost Practitioners among the Nine Emperors!
There was a time when he caused rivers of blood to flow in the Netherworld!
There was a time when he slew ten thousand saints with a single sword!
Among them were not a few Ghost Practitioners of the Saint King Level!
Ordinary Ghost Practitioners at the Saint King Level were not even a match for a single move from the Blood Emperor!
Huff—
Almost reflexively, it quickly turned around and fled toward the distance.
It was not overthinking.
Rather, it had been pondering a question all this time, which was, if the Blood Sword in Lin Yun’s hand was truly the Blood Prison Sword of the Blood Emperor, then why was the Blood Prison Sword in Lin Yun’s possession?
And why was Lin Yun’s performance so defying the heavens?
Could it really be because of the Blood Prison Sword?
Or could there be other reasons?
Such as… perhaps the Blood Emperor really had met with an accident, but Lin Yun… might actually be the reincarnated self of the Blood Emperor?
This was not impossible; the Blood Prison Sword… and Lin Yun’s cultivation speed were simply too heaven-defying… there was a high possibility!
Moreover, Lin Yun’s current display was just like the description it had heard about the Blood Emperor using the Blood Prison Sword.
The Blood Emperor was a Ghost Practitioner of the Netherworld while Lin Yun was a spirit from the cosmos of living beings. If Lin Yun wasn’t the reincarnation of the Blood Emperor, why would his current action seem so similar to when the Blood Emperor wielded the Blood Prison Sword?
In addition, given the words Lin Yun himself admitted, it was no wonder that the Tri-Headed Dog Ghost Practitioner had such thoughts.
A man’s reputation, a tree’s shadow; even if Lin Yun were just the reincarnation of the Blood Emperor, even if Lin Yun only possessed the strength of an inferior Saint Lord, the Tri-Headed Dog Ghost Practitioner dared not initiate a fight with Lin Yun.
It did not even dare to face Lin Yun any longer and immediately fled.
“This… this Lin Yun… what did he say? He… he… he is the Blood Emperor?”
“The Blood Emperor… he is the Blood Emperor… When the Blood Emperor acted, it was just like this, I’ve seen it…”
“Flee… flee… flee… flee quickly…”
Not far away, a group of inferior Saint Lord Level Ghost Practitioners also had their complexions drastically change when they saw this scene, exclaiming in voices that all trembled slightly. Then they, too, turned and fled.
Such was the Blood Emperor’s intimidating power.
Just a moment ago, they were full of ambition.
Now, merely hearing a name was enough to send them scattering in flight.
On the other hand, upon seeing this scene, Lin Yun also felt rather unsettled in his heart.
He was by no means the reincarnated self of the Blood Emperor, but this was the tactic he had thought of.
He had never seen the Blood Emperor in action, nor did the True Martial Saint Lord or the spirit of the Heavenly Principle Tower know, but that Ghost Practitioner named Shan Black did know, and it was his description that allowed Lin Yun to replicate the Blood Emperor’s manner when using the Blood Prison Sword.
However, he had not expected that just one sentence from him would scare these Saint Lord Level Ghost Practitioners so badly.
He found the result somewhat speechless.
If he had known it would be like this, he would have come out this way sooner.
Even, he thought to himself.
Nonetheless, he soon dismissed the idea.
He knew that their escape was likely also related to his current strength. If his current power had been that of an ordinary Cultivator, one thought from them could have killed him; then, even if they had known he was the reincarnation of the Blood Emperor, they wouldn’t have left so swiftly. Chances are, they would have killed him outright to seize the treasure.
It was because his strength now was comparable to that of an inferior Saint Lord, and not just an ordinary inferior Saint Lord at that, which made it impossible for them to kill him quickly, coupled with their fear of the Blood Emperor, that such an outcome occurred.
