Li Changming learns about the Brahma Heaven Mark, an Incense Fire Dao Technique, and decides to switch from his Blood Spirit Technique. Lin Xuankong reveals his promotion of the Profound Void Great Immortal Venerable's name is to lay the groundwork for Li Changming and Ding Ye to become his Left and Right Guardian Immortals, which will help them cultivate the new technique. Meanwhile, news arrives regarding the strength of three disciples from the Six Paths Celestial Court, indicating one is significantly more powerful than initially estimated.

"Thus, that Six Paths Celestial Court powerhouse who has shown himself only once, should indeed be Jin Ming's and another disciple's elder or master...then his strength might be a lot greater than that of Jin Ming, the disciple of Six Paths Celestial Court!"

The Blood Cloud Sect Leader, Liang Di, was corrected and guided a few times by Lin Xuankong, and had already changed the way he referred to cultivation realms. Previously, he would talk about realms as Tier Two Immortal Venerable, Tier Three Immortal Venerable, Tier Four Immortal Venerable; now he changed it to Transcendence Second Layer, Third Layer, Fourth Layer, Fifth Layer...In Lin Xuankong's view, even Earth Immortals from the Golden Dragon Immortal Realm dare not recklessly claim the title of Immortal Venerable. The top Earth Immortals only dare to call themselves Strongest Immortal Lord, and Celestial Immortals from the Supreme Origin Realm only dare to call themselves Initial Tier Celestial Immortal, Minor Success Celestial Immortal, Great Success Celestial Immortal. Only those standing at the pinnacle dare to call themselves Venerable and Saint Monarch. Compared to the Earth Immortal and Celestial Immortal, the Transcendent Realm Cultivators on this planet calling themselves Immortal Venerable is truly bewildering!

Knowing Lin Xuankong's current cultivation realm, Li Changming couldn't help but secretly laugh after hearing Blood Cloud Sect Leader Liang Di's analysis and seeing Liang Di's seriousness and concern...He asked, "According to your theory, that Six Paths Celestial Court disciple called Master might already be a Transcendence Seventh Layer realm, or perhaps even more powerful?"

Blood Cloud Sect Leader Liang Di nodded worriedly, "Whether that individual has achieved the Transcendence Seventh Layer—unattainable on this planet—I cannot be sure. The slaves bought by Liang Butong from the Blood Sea Association cannot reach any core insights either.

But even with the potential Transcendence Sixth Layer of Jin Ming, the Six Paths disciple, he respects that mysterious Six Paths Celestial Court powerhouse greatly, definitely proving his strength exceeds Jin Ming's by more than a little!

This matter requires us to make preparations in advance!"

Ding Ye's face carried a somber expression. He hesitated and looked at his Master Lin Xuankong, cupped his hands and said, "Master's Immortal Technique is profound and endless. Those three disciples of Six Paths Celestial Court shouldn't be a match for Master, yet with such formidable opponents, it would be prudent to prepare ahead of time!

Perhaps when we reach the Blood Sea Association headquarters, I, Elder Sima, and Sect Leader Liang can first meet with those individuals from Seven Great Immortal Sects and Six Paths Celestial Court to probe their strength!

If they truly possess Transcendence Sixth Layer or Seventh Layer experts, then Master can step in at the right moment!"

Lin Xuankong nodded slightly, "That's also good. During this time, your cultivation has improved nicely, but your practical experience is still lacking. This situation presents an opportunity to hone your skills. The path of cultivation is fraught with difficulties. Challenges such as those at Blood Sea Association headquarters are merely the beginning of obstacles you'll face, perfect for practice."

Ding Ye readily cupped his hands in agreement, but Blood Cloud Sect Leader Liang Di and Miao Wan'er still bore worried expressions.

Li Changming saw this and couldn't hold back his laughter, "Hahaha, Wan'Er, you've followed me in cultivation for a while now, but sadly your strength is still lacking. However, exchanges between cultivators like these are opportunities for acquiring knowledge on your cultivation journey!

As for Sect Leader Liang, Brother Lin has guided you multiple times, surely you've progressed substantially. Even if you haven't reached Transcendence Fifth Layer, the changes should make you at least better than Sect Leader Bei Zhi of Night Wolf Sect and Sect Master Zhao Tianyue of Ancestral Soul Sect—those ungrateful fellows. Let's see your performance when the time comes!"

Despite Blood Cloud Sect Leader Liang Di's anxiety, with Lin Xuankong and Li Changming's assurances, he could only nod resolutely, "I'll certainly give it my all to not disappoint Profound Void Great Immortal Venerable and Brother Sima!"

Li Changming laughed heartily, "Relax, we won't be disappointed. We never expected you to single-handedly conquer the Blood Sea Association headquarters!"

Liang Di found himself speechless upon hearing that.

His heart was filled with worry, alongside confusion,

The worry stemmed naturally from the adversary's strength: the Blood Sea Association there gathers experts from Seven Great Immortal Sects in abundance. Furthermore, among the top experts there, one is confirmed at Transcendence Fifth Layer Late Stage, while two might even be Sixth Layer or Seventh Layer...Thousands of years ago, during the zenith of cultivation sects, a Six Paths Immortal at Transcendence Sixth Layer could already sweep across dozens of Immortal Sects. Now there could be two arriving, how can Liang Di not be concerned?

As for the confusion...Blood Cloud Sect Leader Liang Di still couldn't determine Lin Xuankong's realm because Lin Xuankong's aura surpassed that of all cultivators Liang Di had ever seen, devoid of any estimable standards!

The realm of Profound Void Great Immortal Venerable remains a mystery. Does he indeed possess the Fifth Layer, no less than the Sixth Layer? It's unlikely he has attained the Seventh Layer at such a young, unparalleled Transcendence Seventh Layer top-tier expert level, right?

....

The headquarters of the Blood Sea Association is located at the Blood Pool,

Ranked second among the nine Immortal Sect's various Grotto Heaven Blessed Lands on this planet, just under the Mist Immortal Island like the East Lining Island of Ghost Servant Sect!

But after Lin Xuankong eliminated all experts of Ghost Servant Sect, the former Ghost Servant Sect headquarters East Lining Island was besieged and stripped bare by the Eight Great Immortal Sects, turning it into ruins! Consequently, the headquarters of the Blood Sea Association at the Blood Pool naturally became the highest-ranked Blessed Land on this planet!

By standards used on this planet to judge the Grotto Heaven Blessed Lands, the Blood Pool should have been ranked first all along. But due to the Ghost Servant Sect's demon members acting without any limits, paired with slightly powerful inheriting Immortal Techniques and basic Artifact Refining methods, East Lining Island had retained its position as the top Blessed Land for centuries!

The Blood Pool sits at the summit of Prison Mountain, a small lake, a relic from when the Six Paths Immortal battled world experts from dozens of Immortal Sects. It's said during that battle hundreds of 'Tier Five Immortal Venerate' and nearly a thousand 'Tier Four Immortal Venerate' perished here. Endless 'Immortal Venerable's Blood' pooled into this small lake, completely staining it blood-red and incredibly thick...To this day, the surrounding rocks are still dark red!

Moreover, over the millennia, every day sees a continuous flow of numerous birds spontaneously flying from all regions, plummeting at the edge of the Blood Pool, becoming resources for Blood Sea Association cultivators practicing the Blood Sea Divine Skill...

After Six Paths Celestial Court was formed, its Celestial Court was built halfway up the Prison Mountain where the Blood Pool was located. Originally named Jade Mountain, it later transformed into Prison Mountain after Six Paths Immortal sailed away, the Celestial Court shattered, and cultivators lurking across the land annihilated the Six Paths Celestial Court headquarters, establishing a prison to confine those who once served the Six Paths Celestial Court.

The Blood Sea Altar was built atop Prison Mountain beside the Blood Pool - a high altar representing a place for Blood Sea Association cultivators to venerate ancestral masters.

At this moment,

The western side of the Blood Sea Altar was filled with experts, Elders, and Sect Leaders from Seven Great Immortal Sects, numbering close to a thousand, all standing in solemnity, including Blood Sea Association President Jin Wu, Ancestral Soul Sect Master Zhao Tianyue, and Night Wolf Sect Master Bei Zhi, standing at the front, solemnly gazing toward the altar.

At the central location of the altar, at this moment, stood a tall man with dragon-patterned white robes. He had a jade-like visage with a somewhat Taoist, immortal demeanor. He glanced at the Blood Pool before turning sharply toward the myriad cultivators below the altar, speaking coldly:

"It seems Six Paths Celestial Court has left this planet for quite a while,

But some cultivators on this planet have forgotten the origins of this Blood Pool!

Today, I shall witness the skills of Ding Ye and Liang Di, who claim they will level Blood Sea Association and Six Paths Celestial Court!"
