Chapter 234: Blood Threadworm (1)

Blood Sea Sect.

It was a heretic sect that ruled Seawatch City.

Unlike Dragonside City, the Blood Sea Sect was the only sect in Seawatch City.

The Blood Sea Sect’s strength naturally far exceeded that of the Nine Suns Sect, Azure Frost Sect, and Raging Waves Sect.

Only by joining forces could the three sects fight against the Blood Sea Sect.

As a heretic sect, the Blood Sea Sect was known for its ruthlessness. Killing people and refining their souls was a common occurrence for them.

Blood Sea Sect disciples could refine the souls of ordinary people and even cultivators into puppets that could be used to kill enemies in battle.

Such a puppet was called a blood soul.

Previously, when Lin Shen heard the bewitching woman mention the blood soul while talking to that man, he guessed that they were disciples of the Blood Sea Sect.

Now that he heard what Ai Jingting said, there was no doubt about it.

“In that case, those blood shadows just now must be the unique blood souls of the Blood Sea Sect!” Lin Shen thought to himself.

After regaining his senses, he asked Ai Jingting what had happened.

Ai Jingting smiled bitterly and told him everything.

After entering the spirit cave, they immediately approached each other following what they sensed on the tokens.

In just two days, everyone except Lin Shen had gathered together.

Because time was precious and they couldn’t find Lin Shen, they could only find a temporary, quiet place to cultivate.

At first, everything went quite smoothly. More than ten people took turns to guard and clean up the demons attracted by the human aura. The rest of the time could be used to cultivate.

After ten days, everyone’s cultivation had increased significantly.

Ai Jingting, in particular, had vaguely touched the bottleneck of the Bright Aperture Stage. She would break through soon.

But today, a group of Blood Sea Sect disciples appeared out of nowhere and attacked them unexpectedly.

A fierce battle separated the disciples.

Ai Jingting and the two disciples from the lower house ended up together, but then they were caught up by two Blood Sea Sect disciples, the man, and woman from earlier.

The two of them were at the sixth or seventh level of the Bright Aperture Stage. Ai Jingting and the two disciples of the lower house weren’t their matches at all.

They tried to flee, but in the end, the two disciples from the lower house died tragically under the hands of the Blood Sea Sect disciples. Only Ai Jingting relied on the profound armament treasure tree to hold on until now.

If Lin Shen hadn’t appeared, she wouldn’t have survived. She might have been even more miserable than the two disciples from the lower house.

At this point, Ai Jingting still had lingering fears. She looked at Lin Shen with gratitude and surprise.

She was naturally grateful because Lin Shen had saved her.

She was surprised because of what she had witnessed.

Ai Jingting knew very well how powerful those two Blood Sea Sect disciples were.

In her opinion, those two people were as capable as Yan Jingren.

But Lin Shen killed one and seriously injured the other.

In just three to four seconds, the two Blood Sea Sect disciples were dead.

This strength was simply breathtaking!

“Compared to the day of the disciple rank challenge, Lin Shen has become much stronger!” Ai Jingting sighed inwardly.

Lin Shen didn’t know what Ai Jingting was thinking. His attention was completely on the Blood Sea Sect disciples.

“The eye of the spirit cave is located in the middle of the mountain. The sect has set up layers of guards within a five-kilometer radius. How did the Blood Sea Sect enter the spirit cave?” Lin Shen frowned and pondered.

Ai Jingting also looked puzzled.

“According to my observations, those Blood Sea Sect disciples seem to be quite familiar with the surrounding terrain. 1 think they might have already been in the spirit cave for a long time. They might even have entered the spirit cave earlier than us!”

Lin Shen thought for a moment and suddenly said, “Could there be another entrance in the spirit cave that we don’t know about? The people from the Blood Sea Sect might have come in from there!”

This possibility shocked Ai Jingting.

But when she came back to her senses, she felt that Lin Shen might have the right explanation.

If that wasn’t the case, there was no way to explain how the Blood Sea Sect managed to hide from the Nine Suns Sect and appear in the spirit cave.

“What should we do?” Ai Jingting looked worried.

Lin Shen pondered.

The appearance of the Blood Sea Sect was really beyond his expectations.

Most importantly, he didn’t know why the Blood Sea Sect attacked them.

Was it purely out of hatred for the Nine Suns Sect, or was there another reason?

After thinking for a moment, Lin Shen decided not to dwell on it.

“No matter what, the most important thing now is to find Senior Brother Xie and the others!”

Ai Jingting felt that it made sense.

They should meet up with Xie Jingsheng and the others first before making plans.

After making up his mind, Lin Shen didn’t delay. He immediately got Ai Jingting to point the way and rushed toward the place where they were scattered.

With the tokens in their hands, as long as they were close enough, it shouldn’t be difficult to find the location of Xie Jingsheng and the others.

In an empty space covered in jagged rocks.

Shouts and battle cries went on and on. The light of spells and martial techniques crisscrossed, almost dyeing the sky above the cave with a multitude of colors.

However, under this layer of enchanting colors, there was a brutal battle.

On one side were more than 20 Blood Sea Sect disciples in black robes with blood-colored waves embroidered on their sleeves.

On the other side were Xie Jingsheng, Peng Junqin, and others.

Thirty people entered the spirit cave 10 days ago, but there were less than twenty people here. Furthermore, all of them were injured and looked rather miserable.

Xie Jingsheng brandished his sword and forced back the Blood Sea Sect disciple in front of him. He moved as fast as a whirlwind and arrived beside a disciple of the lower house blocking the enemy’s sneak attack in time.

When the disciple heard the commotion, he turned around and broke out in cold sweat. He hurriedly thanked Xie Jingsheng..
