Chapter 483: The Blood River of the Four Heavenly Lords!
In a battle where their cultivation levels were similar, Gu He’s strength was vastly superior to Xue He’s, to an almost immeasurable degree. Even though he deliberately suppressed his power, he still inflicted severe injuries upon Xue He.
At present, Xue He was covered in wounds, his bones fractured in unknown places. His long, crimson hair hung in disarray, making him appear utterly wretched.
However, this state was still not what Gu He desired. Over the past two years, his soul power had been tempered through his innate divine fire, advancing from the initial Soul Realm stage to the late Soul Realm stage. Yet, even with this growth, attempting to execute the ancient Puppet Seed technique while Xue He was desperately resisting would still pose significant difficulty.
Gu He’s objective was to push Xue He to the brink of unconsciousness. Only when his mind was on the verge of collapse would it be the perfect moment to implant the puppet seed.
“Aah—!”
Xue He’s mind was filled with searing pain from the countless wounds all over his body. However, he dared not let his guard down, forcibly suppressing the agony as he remained vigilant against Gu He’s attacks.
In the next instant, under Xue He’s tense gaze, Gu He once again transformed into silver lightning and vanished into the void, completely disappearing from sight.
“Damn it! Who the hell is this guy? He can actually traverse space with such terrifying ease, even within a sealed space!” Xue He cursed internally as he watched Gu He disappear. He had already attempted to escape from this confined space himself, yet no matter how he attacked, the spatial barrier remained unbreakable. Moreover, every moment, he had to divert a portion of his strength to withstand the terrifying heat of the encroaching purple fire web.
What worried him now was whether the fire web would shrink further—if it did, would he be burned to nothing?
Crack!
Crack!
Just as Xue He anxiously scanned his surroundings, a bolt of silver lightning abruptly materialized behind him. In the blink of an eye, it morphed back into Gu He’s figure. Xue He had barely managed to detect Gu He’s blood flow trajectory through his Blood Transformation Art when—
Bang!
A powerful blow struck the back of his head, causing fractures in his skull.
“Aaah—!!”
“If I die, no matter how powerful you are, it won’t be long before you join me in the afterlife! And Xue, you traitor—you’ll suffer for this one day! Your soul will be extracted and lashed every single day—!”
Xue He vomited blood uncontrollably as his mind teetered on the edge of madness. He lashed out with wild, frenzied attacks in every direction, unleashing devastating energy without thought.
Upon consuming the ninth-grade pill, Xue He’s injuries began healing at a speed visible to the naked eye. His torn flesh regenerated rapidly, and even his shattered bones mended together in an instant.
The medicinal effects of a ninth-grade treasured pill were potent enough to benefit even a true Dou Saint. With Xue He’s cultivation still below the Half-Saint level, the powerful medicine caused an unexpected breakthrough—his realm loosened, allowing him to advance straight to the peak of the nine star Dou Venerate stage. He was now extremely close to reaching the Half-Saint level and would likely step into it before long.
After fully healing Xue He’s injuries, Gu He took out a storage ring and handed it to him before issuing an order.
“Xue He, inside this ring, there are three thousand seventh-grade Clear Essence Pills. I need you to find a way to exchange these pills for other seventh-grade elixirs or sell them at high prices to purchase some eighth-grade pills.”
“Yes! I will complete the task without fail!” The Four Heavenly Lords’ Xue He respectfully accepted the storage ring, his tone filled with deference.
“Good. Also, if there are any major movements within the Soul Hall, you must contact me immediately...” Gu He continued giving orders.
A moment ago, by executing the ancient Puppet Seed technique, he had successfully implanted a puppet seed into Xue He’s soul, thus gaining access to many of his memories.
Though Xue He was one of the Nine Heavenly Lords, he was not originally part of the Soul Clan. He had only joined the Soul Hall due to various temptations. Because of this, his knowledge regarding the Soul Clan was somewhat limited. Within the Soul Hall, only the two main hall masters and the Grand Heavenly Lord—the strongest among the Nine Heavenly Lords—were part of the true core leadership.
However, Xue He had been personally involved in many of the Soul Hall’s major operations. He was well aware of the locations of numerous branch halls and had detailed knowledge of the foundational formations that the Soul Hall had been secretly preparing for countless years.
