611 Killing the White-robed King
Qin Huaiâs words shocked the White-robed King deeply. He knew that the boundless blood world was a power unique to him, given by the Supreme One. But now Qin Huai had it. Was Qin Huai a part of the Sacred Heart Sect? Was he their second Holy Son?
âIt canât be! Iâve been loyal! Why would they send someone to kill me?â the white-robed King exclaimed, confused and angry. He always avoided causing trouble and even put aside his personal revenge for the good of the Sacred Heart Sect. The Supreme One wouldnât want him gone.
Qin Huai, keeping his calm, said, âThe boundless blood world can be even stronger.â He bluffed, not sure if it was true, but he suspected the blood heart technique needed to consume others to grow.
Did those in the king realm from the Sacred Heart Sect also gain power by consuming other king realm experts? He wasnât sure. But he sensed the white-robed kingâs puppet lurking nearby, ready to ambush. So, Qin Huai took a risk with his words.
The white-robed kingâs plan froze, his puppet stopped, and doubt filled him. âCan the boundless blood world really get stronger?â he whispered. He recalled the Supreme Oneâs message about the young man from Qingzhou. Was the Supreme Oneâs plan for him to find Qin Huai and then be eliminated?
Looking at Qin Huai, the white-robed king remembered the Kun Peng clan. They must have been defeated, as he hadnât seen any of them for a long time. Maybe he should join forces with Qin Huai and the others against the enemy.
Acknowledging the white-robed kingâs thoughts, Qin Huai simply nodded.
âImpressive,â the white-robed king admitted, even though they were enemies. âThe Supreme One will do anything to get what he wants.â Then, he looked at Qin Huai and added, âIf you want my life to become a top-tier king, maybe itâs worth it. If itâs you, then maybe Iâll accept my fate.â
He paused and looked defiantly at Qin Huai. âDid you believe that? I wonât give up that easily after all these years!â
Suddenly, the king realm puppet, which was far away, came alive. It burst from the ground causing a massive shockwave, reminiscent of an earthquake. As dust clouded the air, the puppet used its rapid Blood Shadow Divine Movement to appear right behind Qin Huai in the blink of an eye.
âBrother Qin, watch out!â shouted Zhang Youji, quickly positioning himself between Qin Huai and the threat. He unleashed talismans, creating a protective shield.
But the blood shadow struck the shield, transforming into liquid and maneuvering around Zhang Youji, targeting Qin Huai directly. Despite the myriad of bloody weapons unleashed upon it, nothing could stop its advance.
Qin Huai found himself trapped, surrounded by a myriad of blood techniques. The white-robed king and Qin Huai seemed to freeze, immobilized within the blood world.
The white-robed king coldly said, âEven though I canât kill you here, you canât escape either.â He continued, explaining the power and origins of the blood sea puppet, and how it was crafted from countless souls to be the ultimate weapon, even capable of taking on multiple top-tier opponents at once.
Qin Huai, struggling, snapped back, âDo you really think this is how Iâll meet my end?â
The white-robed king observed Qin Huai, seeing his expression shift from determination to fear, which only made him smirk even more.
âThanks to you, my boundless blood world can evolve,â the white-robed king declared, clutching the scarlet blood bead, which began to emanate a potent force. âIâll use your strength to reach the peak of martial arts.â
Qin Huai, filled with defiance, shouted, âI wonât accept this!â Blood techniques sprang to life behind him, slicing the advancing blood shadow into multiple fragments.
But those severed parts, full of vitality, reshaped themselves into lethal weapons, which swiftly surrounded and pierced Qin Huai.
âBrother Qin!â Zhang Youji cried out, powerless to intervene.
The white-robed king watched as Qin Huaiâs form was brutally torn apart, relief evident in his eyes.
Suddenly, an intense killing aura streaked the sky. A massive spear, the Spear of Annihilation, launched at unimaginable speed, piercing not only the air but the white-robed king himself.
The spearâs golden glow enveloped the king, filling his senses with haunting Buddhist chants and the anguished cries of countless souls, tearing apart his spirit. His body quaked, and as he tried to flee this golden void, he was shackled by his own realm. Multiple blood techniques ruthlessly impaled him.
The once-mighty white-robed king was reduced to a skeletal remnant, all flesh burned away, leaving only the still-glowing scarlet blood bead in his skeletal hand. Amidst the ash, a few talisman remnants floated â Zhang Youjiâs power.
Yet, eerily, the skeleton lived. It rasped, âHow is this possible? I have the scarlet blood bead. How did you control the king realm puppet?â
A faint glimmer inside the skull betrayed a sliver of the kingâs soul.
Qin Huai answered, âBecause my knowledge of the blood sea surpasses yours. There was once a fellow who was known as undying and indestructible, but he died in my hands.â
