Chapter 260: Blood Demon Seed

"Tian Yuan, why have you come to my Demon Refining Valley?"

At this very moment, the Sect Master of the Demon Refining Valley, the Demon Refining Immortal Emperor, looked at the Blood Soul Gate Elder before him with a grave expression. Judging by the Demon Refining Immortal Emperor's form of address, it was clear that the two were old acquaintances.

Standing opposite him, Tian Yuan helplessly spread his hands, his tone carrying a touch of indifference as he spoke.

"Demon Refining, we meet again, old friend. Is this how you treat your old friend?"

"Hmph, what kind of old friends are we? Although our Demon Refining Valley is a Demonic Path Sect, our style of conduct is far better than that of your Blood Soul Gate."

The Demon Refining Immortal Emperor let out a cold snort, speaking in an extremely disdainful tone.

Although Demon Refining Valley was also a Demonic Path Sect, it had become one out of necessity, simply because the Cultivation Technique cultivated by Demon Refining Valley required them to refine everything from their enemies after killing them.

It was precisely because of this that Demon Refining Valley was despised by the Righteous Path and labeled a Demonic Path Sect.

However, the Sect rules of Demon Refining Valley were extremely strict; they were not to act without reason, otherwise, they would be killed without mercy.

And it was precisely because of this that no so-called Righteous Path Sect had ever taken action against Demon Refining Valley.

"Oh my, what are you saying? We are all Demonic Path Sects, at least in the eyes of the Righteous Path Sects. So, wouldn't it be better to destroy the entire Upper Realm together with our Blood Soul Gate?"

Tian Yuan sighed helplessly and tried to entice the Demon Refining Immortal Emperor.

Upon hearing this, the Demon Refining Immortal Emperor did not hesitate at all, snorting coldly as he refused.

"Impossible, you can give up on that idea. I didn't join your Blood Soul Gate last time, and it will be the same this time! If you do not leave, I wouldn't mind leading the entire Demon Refining Valley to go to war with you!"

Following the Demon Refining Immortal Emperor's order, the entire Demon Refining Valley stood united, ready to take action at any moment. Even the Sect formation had been activated, poised to strike.

Hearing this, Tian Yuan sighed helplessly.

"It seems that I still need to be a bit tougher."

As Tian Yuan spoke, his figure disappeared from the Demon Refining Immortal Emperor's sight the next second, causing the Demon Refining Immortal Emperor's pupils to vibrate violently.

Before he could react, Tian Yuan appeared in front of him, thrusting his hand directly into his body.

The Demon Refining Immortal Emperor did not even have the strength to fight back, and he perceived a terrifying power eroding everything within him, whether it was his Divine Soul or his strength.

"If it weren't for the Sect Leader becoming a god, he wouldn't be able to produce so many Blood Demon Seeds. You, too, are so foolish. You could have led the entire Demon Refining Valley to become the greatest power in the Upper Realm, but instead, you choose to seek death. Why suffer so much?"

Tian Yuan said with a helpless expression.

Upon seeing this scene, the surrounding Demon Refining Valley elders revealed expressions of fear, but they quickly remembered something and shouted.

"Everyone, attack! Take him down!"

Following the Demon Refining Valley Grand Elder's order, the experts of the entire Demon Refining Valley, both Disciples and elders, attacked one after another. In an instant, overwhelming attacks poured toward Tian Yuan, directly submerging him.

Yet, just after the overwhelming attacks slowly dissipated, Tian Yuan's figure appeared before them completely unscathed, only his clothes were a bit dirty.

"What!"

In an instant, the Demon Refining Valley elders were filled with shock. One must know that even their Sect Master could not remain so unscathed when facing their attacks.

At this moment, Tian Yuan spoke, sighing helplessly.

"Why must you do this? You insist on seeking death. Since that is the case, then let your flesh and blood help your Sect Master achieve the Immortal Emperor Peak!"

Tian Yuan finished speaking and immediately launched a fierce attack.

The moment Tian Yuan attacked, the Middle Stage Immortal Emperor Grand Elder and Second Elder were filled with extreme panic.

"Oh no, he is an Immortal Emperor Peak!"

Just as the Grand Elder and Second Elder finished speaking, they saw Tian Yuan lightly swing his sword, killing them both instantly.

At this moment, upon seeing this scene, the Demon Refining Immortal Emperor's eyes split with rage, and he roared angrily.

"Stop, you bastard!"

But now he could do nothing. He could only watch helplessly as Tian Yuan took action, and watch helplessly as the Demon Refining Valley Disciples and elders died before him.

Under these circumstances, not a single one of the Demon Refining Valley elders and Disciples retreated. They rushed towards Tian Yuan one after another. Knowing they could not escape death today, they could only charge at Tian Yuan and detonate themselves as close as possible, attempting to inflict some damage on him!

Their figures continued to enlarge in the Demon Refining Immortal Emperor's eyes, etched deep into his Soul.

"Sect Master, it is my greatest honor to join Demon Refining Valley and be your person. I have no regrets!"

"Sect Master, tell my mother, I am no coward!"

"Sect Master, I actually have a secret I haven't told you. I really like you. If there is a chance, would you be willing to give me a chance?"

A male Elder said before detonating himself.

Hearing their words, the Demon Refining Immortal Emperor felt immense pain in his heart. He hated his own powerlessness, hated himself for refusing, and hated the Blood Soul Gate even more. If the Blood Soul Gate were destroyed, he would be willing to pay any price.

But the Demon Refining Immortal Emperor could do nothing at this moment. The power of the Blood Demon Seed was too terrifying; he couldn't even detonate himself.

So he could only watch helplessly as Tian Yuan slaughtered the entire Demon Refining Valley. Then, he saw Tian Yuan set up a large formation, condensing the blood Qi of all the Cultivators in the Demon Refining Valley together, condensing it into a Blood Pill.

"With the help of this Blood Pill, you will be able to Breakthrough to the Immortal Emperor Peak before the war begins. By then, it can be considered a contribution to my Blood Soul Gate."

"Speaking of which, you should thank me. After all, it was I who gave you the opportunity to Breakthrough to the Immortal Emperor Peak!"

"Heh heh heh!"

"Damn it, Tian Yuan, if I have a chance, I will definitely make your Blood Soul Gate pay in blood!"

The Demon Refining Immortal Emperor roared, and just this one sentence exhausted all his strength.

The power of the Blood Demon Seed was so terrifying that in just one day, it caused the Demon Refining Immortal Emperor to completely lose consciousness, his body completely handed over to the Blood Demon Seed to take control.

"Master!"

After the Demon Refining Immortal Emperor was controlled by the Blood Demon Seed, he stood up and said respectfully to Tian Yuan, but his eyes were lifeless.

Hearing this, Tian Yuan nodded with satisfaction.

"Not bad. Come back with me. When the war begins, I will need you to take action."

After saying this, Tian Yuan took the Demon Refining Immortal Emperor and disappeared from the Demon Refining Valley.

However, what Tian Yuan did not notice was that after he left, a figure slowly walked out from the Void Realm; even Tian Yuan, who was at the Immortal Emperor Peak, did not notice any clues.

The person who arrived was none other than…
