Chapter 54: Yin-Yang Blood Sea (Part 2)

Zhang Yu's face alternated between green and white. He could understand the gravity of the situation; after all, five years of hard work were about to be destroyed, and those five years would have been for nothing.

"If you can't make a decision right now, go back and think about it. When you've made up your mind, come back to me." Li Qiyi did not force him. Ultimately, one's path must be walked by oneself. Without such determination, talking about a firm and resolute heart was just empty words.

"I, I will destroy it! I will cultivate the 'Bilu Heart Method'." As soon as Li Qiyi finished speaking, Zhang Yu gritted his teeth and made his decision, speaking with a firm attitude.

Li Qiyi merely nodded, saying nothing more. He then told Li Shuangyan, who was beside him, "Break his foundation, start from the beginning."

Today, Li Shuangyan did not hesitate at all, immediately carrying out Li Qiyi's order...

In the end, Li Qiyi inspected the foundation of all the disciples. It could be said that the majority of the disciples had no major issues with their foundation. If there were any major problems, Zhang Yu's situation was the most severe!

After inspecting the foundation of all the disciples, everything was back on track. Li Qiyi began to let the disciples cultivate on their own, with a solid foundation, clear principles, and correct techniques. The next step was for each disciple to cultivate on their own.

Thinking this far, Li Qiyi had already led the disciples of Xishi Valley into the path of cultivation. He no longer supported them one by one, letting the disciples of Xishi Valley cultivate on their own, only occasionally taking time to teach and guide them.

Having nurtured even Immortal Emperors over countless years, Li Qiyi was well aware that no matter how extraordinary a disciple's talent, if they were not let go and supported all the way, they would ultimately not grow and would not be able to stand on their own! Without experiencing storms, how could one see the rainbow!

After letting go, Li Qiyi began to focus on his own cultivation. In fact, to teach the disciples of Xishi Valley, Li Qiyi had slowed down his own cultivation speed significantly.

Now, Li Qiyi was at the Blood Strengthening stage of the Body Cultivation realm, and he had already reached the Great Perfection of the Blood Strengthening stage, advancing to the Body Tempering stage. For Li Qiyi, this was a good time to temper his body again.

At this moment, Li Qiyi took out an ancient box. If Li Shuangyan were here, she might recognize this ancient box, which was the one Li Qiyi had taken from the Holy Cave of the Nine Holy Demon Sect.

In fact, even the elders of the Nine Holy Demon Sect and the Sun Demon Emperor did not know what was inside this ancient box. The Sun Demon Emperor might have been curious as to why Li Qiyi chose this unknown ancient box instead of an Immortal Emperor's treasure. What was inside this ancient box?

In principle, when a disciple reached the Blood Strengthening stage of the Body Cultivation realm, the sect would bestow a Life Treasure! However, the ancient Xishan Sect had already declined, with limited resources. If they bestowed Life Treasures to disciples who had not even entered the sect, the Xishan Sect's resources would not be able to bear it!

The main function of a Life Treasure was to extend life and nourish blood. Life Treasures and Life Instruments were the two major treasures of cultivators, and most cultivators possessed both!

A Life Instrument, whether a treasure or a true instrument, was primarily used for protecting life and defeating enemies, and was mostly used on the battlefield.

A Life Treasure, on the other hand, was needed at all times. A Life Treasure could extend a cultivator's lifespan, strengthen their blood, and even refine their life blood.

A Life Treasure could also play a significant role in battles. When blood and life blood were depleted, one could activate the Life Treasure to quickly replenish the lost blood or burst with blood, enhancing combat power!

Li Qiyi opened the ancient box, and inside lay two drops of blood-like substances. The two drops of blood looked ordinary, like two drops of congealed fresh blood.

However, upon closer inspection, one would find that these two drops of blood seemed to contain boundless blood energy, like two vast blood seas. Moreover, upon further inspection, the two drops of blood were different. One drop seemed to have a golden sun rising from its depths, while the other drop seemed to have a divine moon floating in its depths.

"Yin-Yang Blood Sea—" Li Qiyi sighed softly, holding the two seemingly unremarkable drops of blood in his palm. The blood battles of the past seemed like yesterday.

Back then, Mingren Immortal Emperor had already achieved his great path, bearing the mandate of heaven, with countless divine generals under his command, sweeping through the nine heavens and ten earths, invincible! The first battlefield Mingren Immortal Emperor chose after achieving the Immortal Emperor realm was the burial ground of an ancient great evil!

At that time, as Yin Ya, his state was already unstable, but he still wanted to see Mingren Immortal Emperor's first battle. For any Immortal Emperor, the first battle was crucial, as it was an opportunity to refine the mandate of heaven.

Li Qiyi chose the burial ground of an ancient great evil for Mingren Immortal Emperor! Although Li Qiyi did not lead the army personally, he still witnessed the battle that shook the heavens and darkened the sun and moon.

That battle shattered the starry sky and destroyed countless realms! In the end, Mingren Immortal Emperor led the charge, killing into the deepest part of the burial ground.

One of the gains from entering the deepest part of the burial ground was the ancient box in front of him! At that time, Li Qiyi was about to fall into a deep sleep. In his personal opinion, he hoped that Mingren Immortal Emperor would refine the Yin-Yang Blood Sea into his own Immortal Emperor Life Treasure.

However, Mingren Immortal Emperor, bearing the mandate of heaven, had absolute confidence in himself. His own Life Treasure was already astonishing, so he did not want to waste this treasure. In the end, he bestowed this treasure to the Nine Holy Great Sage, who had contributed the most in this battle, as a reward.

After Li Qiyi fell into a deep sleep, he did not inquire about this matter again. He thought the Nine Holy Great Sage had refined the Yin-Yang Blood Sea into his own Life Treasure. It was only when he opened the Holy Cave that he realized the Nine Holy Great Sage had never used this treasure.

When he opened the Holy Cave, Li Qiyi also understood that when the Nine Holy Great Sage wanted to entrust the Nine Holy Demon Sect to him, he had mentioned leaving behind an extraordinary treasure, which was the Yin-Yang Blood Sea!

"Boom—" When Li Qiyi poured the two drops of Yin-Yang Blood Sea into his Life Wheel, his entire body trembled. In that instant, it was as if two vast blood seas had submerged his Life Wheel, instantly turning it a deep red, permeating his entire body.

The blood energy surging from the two blood seas was too powerful. In that instant, Li Qiyi's Life Wheel showed signs of shattering, his Life Palace became unstable, and even his physical body was impacted, as if the boundless blood energy was trying to destroy his physical body!

"Boom—Boom—Boom—" In that instant, the Moon Vortex Yang Wheel Technique activated with the most powerful stance, drawing the blood energy surging from the two blood seas into the Life Wheel to the greatest extent possible.

If it were any other Life Technique, it would not be able to handle such boundless blood energy. It would be like a small horse pulling a large cart, unable to move. However, the Moon Vortex Yang Wheel Technique was so extraordinary that the stronger the blood energy, the more powerful its vortex, and the more forcefully it could draw the blood energy. In that instant, the Moon Vortex Yang Wheel Technique wildly drew the blood energy, incorporating a vast amount of blood energy into the Life Wheel.

However, the origin of the Yin-Yang Blood Sea was so profound that even Immortal Emperors were moved. At this realm, the Moon Vortex Yang Wheel Technique could not draw all the blood energy or incorporate it into the Life Wheel!

For a moment, the boundless blood energy from the two blood seas submerged Li Qiyi's physical body and Life Palace, threatening to destroy both in that instant.

In this extremely dangerous moment, the Hell Suppressing Divine Body that Li Qiyi cultivated finally activated. The sound of divine chains clanging like those in hell echoed, each chain weighing billions of tons, each chain of the Body Technique suppressing the boundless blood energy, forcefully compressing it into Li Qiyi's physical body and the Hell Suppressing Divine Body!

At the same time, in Li Qiyi's Life Palace, the "Six Transformations of Kunpeng" that formed his foundation transformed into a massive Kunpeng. The Kunpeng opened its mouth and swallowed the vast amount of blood energy, as if it could swallow the boundless sea. The foundation transformed into a Kunpeng, swallowing the boundless blood energy, and then nourishing the true life force! In that moment, the true life force in the Life Palace shone brilliantly, a magnificent sight!

After the "Moon Vortex Yang Wheel Technique," the Hell Suppressing Divine Body, and the "Six Transformations of Kunpeng" suppressed the blood energy multiple times, the two blood seas finally calmed down in Li Qiyi's Life Wheel, embracing each other like a yin-yang disk, one yin and one yang, like yin-yang fish continuously flowing in the blood sea.

At this moment, the Yin-Yang Blood Sea nourished Li Qiyi's Life Wheel, strengthening his blood energy. The essence blood flowing from the Life Wheel washed over Li Qiyi's entire body, each strand of essence blood permeating his bone marrow, giving Li Qiyi a feeling of rebirth!

Unconsciously, Li Qiyi had already entered the Body Tempering stage, using the Yin-Yang Blood Sea to refine his essence blood, washing over his Hell Suppressing Divine Body, elevating his physical constitution to a new level!

The Yin-Yang Blood Sea, like yin-yang fish, continuously flowed in the Life Wheel. At this moment, the Yin-Yang Blood Sea appeared calm, but Li Qiyi knew that with his current cultivation, he could not even utilize a fraction of the blood energy of the Yin-Yang Blood Sea! If he could truly unleash the full power of the Yin-Yang Blood Sea, it would be earth-shattering, blood surging to the nine heavens, and gods and demons trembling!

When Li Qiyi finished his cultivation, Li Shuangyan was already standing outside the door, her beautiful eyes fixed on Li Qiyi.

"What demonic technique are you practicing?" At this moment, Li Shuangyan was greatly moved. She had been meditating in her own pavilion when she suddenly felt a boundless surge of blood energy, which was then suppressed.

Although this change lasted only a moment, it did not escape the notice of a genius like Li Shuangyan. She knew this fluctuation came from Li Qiyi.

The sudden surge of blood energy was so shocking that Li Shuangyan suspected Li Qiyi was practicing some kind of demonic technique!

"Do I need to practice demonic techniques?" In response to Li Shuangyan's question, Li Qiyi only smiled and said calmly.

Li Shuangyan looked at Li Qiyi in surprise for a moment, then asked nothing more and turned to leave.
