C1154 The Starry River Tumor

Grec, with a radiant smile, gently descended from the Titan's chest cavity. Like a delicate, crimson feather, he floated down gracefully and unhurriedly. Within the depths of his dark red eyes, a bloody light began to emerge, as if two scarlet galaxies had been drawn into his gaze from across the vastness of space.

Yu Yuan, who had merely locked eyes with him, felt his sea of consciousness tumultuously shake, nearly causing the Yin God and his primary soul to be drawn out. In that moment, the entire Origin Blood Continent seemed to resonate with Grec. The dark red heavens, the boundary walls, the expansive earth, and the innumerable blood-colored lakes and rivers appeared to become extensions of Grec, transforming into his power source, all obedient to his will.

Yu Yuan's spirit trembled slightly as he pressed the elongated Dragon Slash Platform to the Xuan Gate point on his chest. With a single thought, the unique Space-time Extraordinary Talent of the Dragon Slash Platform formed a barrier as thin as cicada wings, creating a separation between his personal domain and the Origin Blood Continent.

As the barrier solidified, dazzling light burst forth from his chest. He instantly realized that the omnipresent blood energy of the Origin Blood Continent was being manipulated by Grec, exerting an intangible pressure upon him. If not for this, the Life Altar within his own domain would not have exhibited such an unusual response.

"You have always been invaders from the outside," Grec, rejuvenated to his youth, declared from the base of a cliff, with the elders Quealy and Norke standing guard behind him. He lifted his gaze, focusing solely on Yu Yuan, and continued, "For millions of years, your kind from the Boundless Great World have slaughtered too many of our Devaputra kin."

His expression dimmed, hinting at a sorrowful memory. "My parents, our small world, was devastated when a hunting party of seven from the northern Quietus Continent arrived..."

Grec left the rest unsaid, but his eyes blazed with an intense hatred that could not be dissolved. "The people and demons of the Boundless Land are the greatest scourge in the infinite cosmos! Without eradicating you completely, no sentient beings will ever know peace."

Grec activated his arcane bloodline, and his heart blazed like a crimson sun. Fueled by his rage, millions of Bloodline Crystal Chains lit up, coursing through his veins and interweaving into dozens of innate divine abilities capable of connecting with the cosmos, altering the fundamental laws, and extinguishing life.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Refined beams of blood energy surged from the mountains, lakes, rivers, and the very air, coalescing into the towering skeleton of the Titan, as majestic as an ancient deity.

This Titan was once merely a skeleton, its fate of decay unknown.

Suddenly, the grand skeleton of the Titan was revitalized with a surge of blood energy from the Origin Blood Continent. Flesh wrapped around bone, veins and blood vessels formed, and a pulsating bloody light transformed into vital organs. A layer of resilient and sturdy skin rapidly emerged.

The Titan, long since perished, was experiencing an astonishing metamorphosis with the infusion of Grec's power.

Yu Yuan's expression grew somber as he swiftly distanced himself from the hollow chest cavity of the Titan. Suspended in the air, he gazed upon the Titan, whose heart had not yet materialized, when a vivid and distinct vision flashed through his mind.

He witnessed Grec, in his youth, entering the vacant chest of the Titan after its organs had formed, as if Grec himself had become the living heart of the Titan.

With his mastery over the Titan, Grec was endowed with boundless divine strength, unleashing devastation in all directions.

The vision shattered and faded in a moment.

Yet, Yu Yuan understood that this was one of the secret arts and divine abilities that Grec excelled in. The reason this scene came to mind was that a blood crystal belonging to Grec had been shattered on his Life Altar, releasing the innate talents and secrets of the Blood Devil Clan, which were now being contemplated by his Heavenly Soul.

Simultaneously, a stream of thoughts flowed from his Heavenly Soul into his Consciousness Little World.

He then realized that the Origin Blood Continent, with its myriad concealed arrays and enchantments, had been long ago refined by the Great Demon God Grec.

This arcane knowledge, bestowed by the Great Demon God, facilitated Grec's resurrection ritual, unique to this place.

Thus, upon awakening, Grec naturally triggered these profound mysteries, seamlessly assuming control over all the laws and arrays of the Origin Blood Continent.

It was akin to how Grec, in the Fallen Moon Forbidden Area, could manipulate the "Heaven Sealing Soul Transformation Formation." On the Origin Blood Continent, Grec harnessed his bloodline and distinctive essence to command the world's laws, mountains, lakes, rivers, lightning, and storms to his will.

He is the deity of the Origin Blood Continent!

"Mighty Spirit King!"

As Forte ascended slowly into the sky, he let out a piercing shriek at the leader of the Devil Palace, then abruptly morphed into a colossal blood bat. "Two hundred years ago, I encountered you during a battle beyond the heavens. Back then, you were merely at the Yang God Stage. The progress of your human race is truly astonishing."

"You humans, naturally short-lived, strive to break through realms just to extend your lives. It hasn't been that long, and yet you've already reached the status of an Unrestrained Stage cultivator, wielding the power comparable to a Ninth Level member of our race. We, the Outland Devaputra Race, are born with a millennium of life. Without any effort, our bloodline will gradually advance."

"Sigh."

"An overwhelming racial advantage isn't always beneficial. It has led us to complacency, arrogance, and a lack of ambition. Perhaps, we ought to be grateful to your vast races of humans and demons for spurring us on, whipping us into action, and forcing us to grow stronger and continue our evolution!"

Forte, now a gigantic blood bat, conjured two torrents of blood and hurled them at the Mighty Spirit King.

These two massive blood torrents, each spanning thousands of acres, swirled with countless visible blood shadows—indeed, they were numerous weak, ethereal Devaputras.

The Mighty Spirit King gave a dismissive hum and revealed a demonic form as high as the heavens, wielding a spear ablaze with black flames. He thrust it into one of the blood torrents, and instantly, numerous black figures and streaks of lightning burst forth, fragmenting the blood river into dozens of blood clusters.

Without giving Forte a chance to speak further, the Mighty Spirit King's towering demonic form opened its mouth and exhaled.

A fierce, icy gale, bearing the severe chill of the Quietus Continent's northern reaches, reversed the flow of the other blood torrent back towards Forte.

The Blood Devil Clan Elder, in his giant blood bat guise, emitted a high-pitched squeal and activated his bloodline secret arts, drawing the twin blood torrents back to himself, incorporating them into the power of his blood wings.

"Munch, I'll handle the Mighty Spirit King."

With a sinister chuckle, Forte stretched out his bizarre, talon-like hands toward the river below and with a forceful tug, a massive blade gleaming with frosty light soared into the air.

Grasping the icy blade, Forte instantly closed the distance to the Mighty Spirit King's demonic figure, engaging in a flurry of clashes with the black-flamed demonic spear.

Streaks of black and red lightning, along with a blood-hued glow, erupted from the colossal blade and demonic spear.

Yu Yuan narrowed his eyes, recognizing that the Mighty Spirit King, Liu Yi, who had once emerged in the Fallen Moon Forbidden Area, had astonishingly advanced from the Early to the Middle Period of the Unrestrained Stage. His combat prowess had grown even more formidable.

Yet, he couldn't shake the feeling that the Mighty Spirit King might still fall short against Forte on the Origin Blood Continent.

His gaze shifted to the Golden Elephant Ancient God, who had not yet manifested his Demon Body and was perched atop the Titan's head. He watched the Great Demon, once counted among the ranks of the Demon Gods, with a furrowed brow, his attention fixed on Munch.

"I am not bound by the Origin Blood Continent's constraints," Yu Zhu's inner voice suddenly reached him.

The colorful segments of her spine lit up with a brilliant radiance as she floated in the void, scanning her surroundings and murmuring, "Because of that blood-colored crystal, I feel a certain resonance with this realm."

"What?!" Yu Yuan silently gasped.

His Life Altar had been severed from the Origin Blood Continent due to the barrier formed by the Dragon Slash Platform. To prevent Grec from causing chaos, he had reluctantly resorted to this measure, which was why he couldn't sense the advantages of the blood-colored crystal like Yu Zhu could.

But upon reflection, he realized that if Yu Zhu wasn't being suppressed, then he likely wasn't either.

He stroked his chin, his gaze deepening as he contemplated the dark red firmament above, feeling the presence of the realm's barrier and a thought began to take shape in his mind.
