“Gurgle, gurgle…’

A large amount of blood flowed into their mouths, accompanied by a strong bloody smell that assaulted their senses.

If it were ordinary blood, they would have been delighted and welcomed it without hesitation.

But this blood was far from ordinary. Not only could they not absorb it, but their bodies also felt like they were being dissolved.

After soaking in the blood for a long time, they would eventually turn into blood themselves.

They quickly activated their mana, forming a protective shield around their bodies to ward off the invading blood.

“Crack, crack, crack…’

Under the pressure of the blood, the mana shield emitted strained cracking sounds. It required a significant amount of mana to maintain it at every moment.

Although they managed to isolate the blood, they couldn’t escape from the array.

No matter which direction they ran in, they could not leave the array. It was as if they were truly trapped in an endless sea of blood.

The blood incessantly eroded their shields, rapidly depleting their mana.

At this rate, within two hours at most, their mana would be exhausted, and they would be assimilated into the blood. “Could it be that Zhang Chen really intends to kill us?”

“This is still within the sect. How dare he!”

As time passed, they felt the mana in their bodies decreasing. They grew increasingly desperate, terrified, and at the same time, incredulous. The Blood God Sect was a demonic sect that never showed mercy. Going against the sect’s rules meant certain death.

Naturally, Zhang Chen wouldn’t actually kill these people. He was merely testing the power of the Array Disk.

Among the individuals in the formation, the weakest was at the late Foundation Establishment stage, yet they were still completely powerless within the formation.

Zhang Chen was very satisfied with the power of the Array Disk.

Even if the formation disk had only one percent of the power of the protective formation, it would be invincible against those at the Foundation Establishment stage. Even someone at the early Golden Core stage should be able to withstand it for a while.

The only downside was the enormous mana consumption required to maintain the formation.

As Zhang Chen monitored the situation within the formation, he took out a blood storage bottle and absorbed the essence of blood to restore his mana.

Using the cultivation base of the fourth level of Foundation Establishment to activate the Array Disk was still a strenuous task. Within a short period, his mana had reached its limit.

Sensing that the mana shields of the individuals in the formation were dimming, Zhang Chen knew it was time to release them.

With a thought, the blood water within the formation surged, forming a gigantic wave crashing toward the group.

“We’re done!”

Seeing the incoming wave, the group’s faces turned pale, thinking that Zhang

Chen was about to deliver a fatal blow.

The wave crashed down, and their mana shields shattered with a resounding noise. They looked at each other with despair and terror in their eyes, followed by a sensation of dizziness and disorientation.

“Bang, bang, bang…”

Outside the Blood Bamboo Peak where Zhang Chen’s cave was located, several figures dropped from the sky, creating several craters on the ground.

As Foundation Establishment cultivators, the fall from such a height wouldn’t kill them.

“We’re not dead?”

The group crawled up in a sorry state and found themselves at the foot of Blood Bamboo Peak.

They exchanged a glance, still trembling with fear as they looked at the mountain shrouded in blood. Without saying anything else, they turned into blood lights before departing.

Zhang Chen did not put away the Array Disk. With a thought, the blood water transformed back into blood mist, shrouding the entire Blood Bamboo Peak.

Within the blood mist, the mountain appeared partially obscured, giving off a sinister and mysterious aura as if it were a place of great danger.

Then Zhang Chen took out 10 spirit stones and placed them into the grooves of the Array Disk.

Without activating the killing array, only using the illusion formation to isolate detection, the consumption was not significant. One spiritual stone could sustain it for a day.

Due to the size limitations of the Array Disk, only 10 spirit stones could be placed at a time.

The Array Disk been refined, so as soon as someone entered the formation, Zhang Chen would immediately sense it and take control of the Array Disk.

“With the Array Disk, those below the Golden Core stage won’t be able to investigate my cave anymore. I can feel a bit more at ease,” Zhang Chen said with a slight smile at the corners of his mouth.

Normally, people wouldn’t use their divine sense to probe other people’s caves. However, Zhang Chen had a strong sense of insecurity due to the many secrets he held.

Soon, news spread within the sect about Zhang Chen using the Array Disk to expel several late Foundation Establishment disciples.

“The power of this Array Disk is so immense? Just at the fourth level of Foundation Establishment, and he can expel late Foundation Establishment disciples?”

People were both astonished and envious upon hearing the news.

“I’m determined to obtain the secret technique that can allow the Blood God

Son to break through. It would be perfect to receive the Array Disk as well.”

Some powerful ninth-level Foundation Establishment disciples still didn’t give up. They knew the Array Disk consumed a tremendous amount of mana and couldn’t be maintained for a long time, so they weren’t worried.

In the following days, people continued to come to Blood Bamboo Peak to investigate.

However, their calls received no response, and with the lingering blood mist that showed no signs of dissipating, they could only leave in disappointment.

A blood light descended and transmitted a message to the peak, “Junior Brother Seven, I’m here. Senior Brother has something to discuss. Please meet me.”

Inside the cave, Zhang Chen frowned. It was the voice of Fifth Senior Brother, Zhou Xuewu.

Zhou Xuewu’s purpose for coming at this time was quite obvious, so Zhang Chen had no intention of meeting him.

“If Senior Brother came for the secret technique, please leave. Our Master has given orders not to disclose the secret technique,” Zhang Chen’s cold voice echoed from within the blood mist.

Hearing this, Zhou Xuewu felt awl«vard. He did come for the secret technique, but it wasn’t for himself.

It was because the others could not see Zhang Chen, so they changed their target and approached his senior sister and senior brothers, hoping to negotiate through their relationship.

Under coercion and enticement, Zhou Xuewu came to try his luck.

However, he did not expect Zhang Chen to reject him so bluntly.

Zhou Xuewu opened his mouth a few times but hesitated. In the end, he sighed and said, “Since Master has given the order, I won’t disturb you anymore.”

Those who wanted to obtain the secret technique finally gave up on the idea of meeting Zhang Chen when even his senior brother who had the same master was rejected.

In the following days, no one came.

As for whether there were still many people watching in the dark, no one knew.

Zhang Chen did not care about this at all.

“They must be hoping for me to leave the sect so they can attack and search my soul. It just so happens that the agreed-upon six-month period with Shen Yijun has also come to an end. Well, I’ll fulfill their wish and send them on their way to reincarnation as soon as possible.”

Zhang Chen chuckled coldly. “No, I’ll use the Soul Devouring technique to consume their souls. They shouldn’t even have a chance to be reincarnated.” 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝓫𝓷𝓸𝒗𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝓶

“They see me as prey, but why shouldn’t I see them the same way?”

Zhang Chen took out dozens of spirit stones and tossed them to the Blood God Son, instructing, “Remember to replace the spirit stones and maintain the operation of the Array Disk after I leave. Don’t let anyone enter the cave.”

The Blood God Son caught the spirit stones and obediently nodded.

After making all the arrangements, Zhang Chen stood up and walked out of the cave abode.

A moment later, a blood light flew from the blood mist.

Shortly after Zhang Chen left, several more blood lights flew away from the vicinity of Blood Bamboo Peak.

“Eldest Senior Brother, Zhang Chen has left the sect.”

“Oh! Zhang Chen actually dared to leave the sect at this time?” Wei Qi looked surprised.

Wei Qi was the eldest senior brother of Elder Cold Blood’s lineage.

Although he ranked first in the demonic path’s Foundation Establishment competition, he didn’t receive any substantial rewards. He harbored some resentment towards Zhang Chen and was also very interested in Blood Sacrifice Technique.

Therefore, he sent someone to keep an eye on him.

He had thought that Zhang Chen would stay hidden within the sect and then, with some manipulation, be forced to take on sect tasks. He didn’t expect him to voluntarily leave the sect after just a few days.

“Did he gain enough confidence in his strength after obtaining the Array Disk, or is there some other scheme at play?” Wei Qi furrowed his brow in contemplation.

Zhang Chen’s actions were truly unexpected, and it was hard not to be suspicious..
