Chapter 1523 - Fat Whale, use splash!

The Blood Shrine that had formed from the blood-red light was of very simple shape and an architectural style that did not belong to any time period on Earth.
The huge shrine expanded, resulting in the emergence of a square where Song Shuhang could situate himself.
Song Shuhang rubbed his eyes in distress.
Today, it appeared that he really did have some fate with the word "monochrome".
Previously, on Heavenly Field Island, everything was in a gray-tone, and a colored person was very rare to see.
And now, the shrine in front of him was blood-red, making people feel particularly uncomfortable after looking at it for an extended period of time.
Moreover, there were all kinds of strange bones in the vicinity of the shrine... It seemed as if this Blood Shrine was a lurking beast, devouring everything that it could.
Could the projection of this Blood Shrine be an effect of the royal blood demon core?
While he was in the middle of his thoughts, the gate to the Blood Shrine was pushed open, and a tall figure appeared in front of Song Shuhang.
"A blood demon..." Song Shuhang stared at the tall figure.
This guy was exactly the same as the blood demon that had gotten decimated by the seniors of the Nine Provinces Number One Group previously.
The origin of cosmic demons was still a mystery in the world of cultivation.
Nobody knew where they came from, how many different types there were, and why they always carried all kinds of treasures.
Cosmic demons didn't seem to have any intelligence. After they descended to the main world, they would begin to destroy everything that they could see, and there did not seem to be any way to communicate with them.
Anyway, when one saw a cosmic demon, killing them was the right choice.
But now, it seemed like cosmic demons once had a prosperous civilization...
This large shrine was proof of this.
One could only be left to wonder as to why they had ultimately become beast-like and without a shred of intelligence.
The tall blood demon stood at the entrance of the temple, holding a magic staff in its hand—this magic staff was similar in appearance to the blood bone that Song Shuhang had, but the blood bone was much shorter.
It lowered its head and looked directly at Song Shuhang.
After that, the blood demon opened its mouth. "Jiligula, gulajili."
Song Shuhang was left utterly confused.
I don't understand what it's saying at all. It isn't even the language of the ancient era...
At least the language of the ancient era could still be somewhat distinguished by the syllables and tone.
The blood demon continued speaking, and the more it spoke, the more excited it appeared to become.
It kind of sounds like it's performing some kind of ritual?
Or maybe it's chanting some spell.
After a long while, the blood demon stopped speaking.
It lowered its head and looked at Song Shuhang once more.
Afterward, it lifted its magic staff up high.
Immediately afterward, the huge body of the blood demon leaped to hit Song Shuhang.
It swung the large magic staff around, forging ahead with the ferocity of a tiger.
"..." Song Shuhang.
I originally thought that this guy was some kind of mage. Who could have thought that he would suddenly engage in close-quarters combat...
Or could he be some close-combat mage?
After all, every mage had the heart of a warrior deep down.
What magic techniques? Just click on "Shining Holy Light" and you're done!
Clang!
The blood demon's huge magic staff was blocked by a blood bone that was an entire size smaller than it was.
The body of the virtuous lamia emerged from behind Song Shuhang. She waved her blood bone, and easily blocked the blood demon's staff.
Clang, clang, clang~
The huge blood demon was extraordinarily nimble. It waved the magic staff in its hand unceasingly, displaying a set of exquisite staff techniques.
The virtuous lamia silently stood her ground, and the blood bone in her hand was constantly moving about, unceasingly suppressing all the attacks of the blood demon.
"This is a projection composed of pure spiritual energy, and its strength is around the Fifth Stage." Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword's voice sounded from the virtuous lamia's belly.
Song Shuhang said, "It came out after the 'royal blood demon core' was stimulated. I thought that the core could become a treasure after it was stimulated. I didn't expect for this guy to suddenly come out and attack me."
Scarlet Heaven Sword said, "Kill it first, then find a chance to study this core. I'm guessing that a defensive formation in the royal blood demon core was activated. Once the core was stimulated, it would activate its defensive measures. Come on, let's cooperate and kill this guy in one breath."
Why would I need Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword to come out to deal with this Fifth Stage blood demon? Ahem... wait, it seems like Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword wants to seize this opportunity to come out again.
Then, I'll fulfill Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword's wish.
Song Shuhang coolly said, "Fairy Waiting for a Promise, sword!"
As Fairy＠#％× heard this, she suddenly put greater force in the blood bone in her hand.
On the blood bone, saber qi surged, resulting in a tyrannical saber intent condensing. This in turn brought about a slash that could rend heaven and earth slashing toward the blood demon.
Imperial Tyrannical Saber.
With one slash, the blood demon was divided into two pieces, and its body gradually turned into blood-red spiritual energy and dissipated.
"..." Scarlet Heaven Sword.
After slaying the blood demon easily, the virtuous lamia put away the blood bone and returned to Song Shuhang's back, playing the role of a quiet and beautiful lamia.
While it was gradually disappearing, the blood demon opened its mouth to speak once again. [Whenever the Shrine of the Blood God appears, you will think of me... bones to bones, and then to earth. All blood and bones belong to the Palace of the Blood God. From today onwards, you will never forget me.]
Song Shuhang still couldn't understand its language. But this time, a kind of power emerged from the palace behind it, carrying a translation function.
"..." Song Shuhang.
What horrible lines were these?
[This is not the end. Under the witness of the Shrine of the Blood God, we shall duel anew. Until one of the sides falls into utter ruin and defeat. Either I become yours completely, or you become mine.] After the blood demon said this, he disappeared completely.
This was not the end?
Was that guy going to condense again in the future?
While Shuhang was in thought, the blood palace and blood-red light in front of him dissipated.
Song Shuhang reappeared back in the air.
The beam of light in the distance had slightly dimmed, but the puppet maiden and Chu Chu still had not come out.
Song Shuhang lowered his head, and looked at the royal blood demon core in his hand.
The light on the core had also dimmed significantly.
If he were to go by the lines of the blood demon that dissipated just now… could it be that this thing was in the middle of recovering its power? And after it acc.u.mulated enough strength, that blood demon would jump out to fight him again?
If that really was so, then that was simply ridiculous.
I finally recharged and activated you, yet you thank me by repeatedly jumping out to fight me?
Sure enough, magical treasures that were related to demons weren't anything good.
Hmm... Except for the 'Demon Venerable Lushan Street Magic Lamp' that Senior White had. That magic lamp was quite good; it could summon a Seventh Stage demon as a helper.
Song Shuhang said, "If this thing isn't anything good, I can just bury it in the Inner World and treat it as a kind of trial magical treasure."
In the future, after his disciples ascended to the Fifth Stage, he could have them activate this 'core' and regard the blood demon projection that possessed Fifth Stage combat power as a sparring partner.
Song Shuhang closed his palms and got ready to put the 'royal blood demon core' away and into his spatial bracelet.
But suddenly, a red light appeared in front of his eyes again.
At first, it was only slightly red, but after a while, the entire world had become covered in red light.
"..." Song Shuhang.
Is that thing coming out again so soon?
"Eh? No. This time we aren't in the real world, but in the spiritual one instead." Song Shuhang quickly discovered the abnormality.
This time, the red light originated from his spiritual world.
In his spiritual world, the red light expanded and turned into the Blood Shrine.
The image of Song Shuhang at this time was based on his 'True Self'.
His upper body was n.a.k.e.d, his muscles like marble, and his whole body exuded powerful light of virtue.
On his head was a crown.
In his hand, he was holding a copy of ❮Ksitigarbha's Soul Ferrying Scripture❯.
Besides that, there were 21 Apes holding Scholarly Scriptures tattooed onto his back.
"..." Song Shuhang.
Then, under his feet, there was a huge fat whale swimming around slowly. On top of the fat whale's head, there were three small beads spinning around—one golden bead, one colorful bead, and one golden diamond bead.
Because these beads were spinning relatively quickly, it looked like there was a colorful halo above the fat whale's head—these things were his whale core and three other cores.
Song Shuhang softly said, "I thought the little golden cores were meant to be strung together into a necklace, but they're actually meant to be a halo on one's head?"
Rumble~
On the opposite side, the gate of the Blood Shrine opened.
The blood demon holding the huge magic staff reappeared.
The blood demon said, [Whenever the Palace of the Blood God appears, you will think of me... Come, we shall duel anew. Until one of the sides falls into utter ruin and defeat. Either I become yours completely, or you become mine.]
It was still the same terrible lines.
After letting out a roar, the blood demon waved his magic staff, leapt forward, and charged towards Song Shuhang.
Song Shuhang looked at the blood demon calmly. In fact, with this level of attack, even if he were to remain completely still, it wouldn't hurt him.
After practicing two top-notch body-tempering techniques, Song Shuhang's physique had become extremely powerful. Moreover, he also had the mutated ❮Steel Hands Technique❯.
Because of his confidence, Song Shuhang suddenly had an idea.
Since he was holding the ❮Ksitigarbha's Soul Ferrying Scripture❯, should he try out the 'Soul Ferrying Technique' on the blood demon?
Theoretically, this blood demon was dead, right?
It was merely staying inside the blood demon core, so was it a form of resentment, or perhaps a remnant soul.
Would the Soul Ferrying Technique be effective on it?
Clang!
The blood demon waved his staff and landed beside Song Shuhang. He swept his staff across and hit Song Shuhang's chest.
A heavy impact sounded.
On Song Shuhang's body, a layer of armor emerged out of thin air.
It was his saber intent armor. It had automatically activated to protect him.
The pages of ❮Ksitigarbha's Soul Ferrying Scripture❯ in Song Shuhang's hand flipped despite the lack of wind and him doing nothing.
At the same time, Song Shuhang's finger stretched out and touched the blood demon's body. "Soul Ferrying Technique!"
The light of the Soul Ferrying Technique emerged.
The blood demon's body froze, with it becoming unable to move.
It's working!
After a few breaths...
The huge blood demon began to shrink along with the Blood Shrine in the distance. It shrank into a small bloody ball the size of a fist.
Song Shuhang thought, This Blood Shrine is quite special. Maybe after I'm done with this, my light of virtue will improve again.
At this moment, the fat whale under his feet seemed to splash about before opening its mouth, and swallowing the small, blood-colored ball.
