Chapter 66

This was a vast and desolate land, silent and still, with an ancient sense of沧桑 (cang桑) permeating the earth, and the entire space was filled with a lonely atmosphere. The sky was blood-red, adding a few threads of blood qi to the space, which was actually eroding Xiao Yan, causing several wounds to appear on his body.

Xiao Yan's figure descended from the sky, looking at the boundless space, his heart filled with shock. This was no underground palace; it was practically an underground space. Such a feat was truly unbelievable!

"Quickly eat the Blood Nether Grass!" Zhan Lao, who was beside him, urgently shouted.

Xiao Yan did not dare to delay, quickly taking out the bright red Blood Nether Grass from his storage ring and swallowing it. The blood qi had already cut several wounds on his body, with fresh blood continuously seeping out, causing a tearing pain.

After swallowing the Blood Nether Grass, a warm energy spread throughout Xiao Yan's body, turning the fresh blood seeping from his skin into a thin layer of blood scab, blocking the blood qi from entering.

"Phew—"

Xiao Yan exhaled a white breath. After swallowing the Blood Nether Grass, the tearing pain on his body gradually dissipated. Looking at the blood-red gas flowing through the sky, and feeling the power of the blood qi, Xiao Yan now truly understood its might.

Zhan Lao's blue robe slowly fluttered in the blood qi, as if the blood qi was extremely wary of him. Zhan Lao looked up at the sky filled with blood-red gas, then glanced at Xiao Yan, whose skin had formed a layer of blood scab after swallowing the Blood Nether Grass, and felt slightly relieved.

"This demonic blood qi is indeed present in every ancient tomb of the demon race, and it is extremely dense. If it can be absorbed, it will definitely bring about an unexpected improvement." Zhan Lao's eyes gleamed with golden light as he said to Xiao Yan.

"Absorb? You old man, you really think of everything. The difficulty of absorbing this thing is not the main issue; if it shreds all the meridians in my body, what's the point of absorbing it?" Xiao Yan shot a glance at Zhan Lao and cursed. He had just experienced the power of the demonic blood qi, and even with such a strong body, he couldn't block it. If it were absorbed into his body, wouldn't it just turn his insides into a mess?

Zhan Lao smiled, waved his hand, and a strand of demonic blood qi was caught in his palm. Looking at the demonic blood qi jumping in his hand, Zhan Lao smiled. He wasn't surprised by Xiao Yan's words; anyone facing something that could almost cut them into pieces in an instant wouldn't want to absorb it.

"Haha, that's not necessarily true. One of the reasons we came here is for the demonic blood qi. This thing is perfect for your cultivation, but you need to find another item before you can absorb the demonic blood qi."
