Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World Chapter 1121 - 544: Crossing the Tribulation with Ease, Obtaining a Second-Grade Opportunity

Blood River Sect?!

Jiang Fan arched an eyebrow at those words.

Earlier, from the three Void Refining Cultivators of the Thousand Illusion Sect, he had gained much knowledge on ancient sects.

Today, ten great forces stand as the renowned Ten Gates of Immortal Dao.

Among them ranks the Blood River Sect as one such ancient power.

Rumors claim that this sect's cultivators act like Demon Cultivators, savage and merciless, delighting in consuming the Essence Blood from fellow beings.

Their signature Lifebound Technique goes by the name Blood River Dao Scripture.

A pinnacle art inherited from the Immortal Realm, it guides straight to immortality, stemming from the Blood River Ancestor himself.

This art bears some resemblance to the Blood Demon Technique.

Yet unlike the Blood Demon Technique, it avoids turning one into a Fallen Demon, remaining purely an Immortal Dao Technique.

Still, Blood River Sect cultivators strike terror into the hearts of myriad beings.

They control forty-nine Great Thousand Worlds.

All inhabitants within those Great Thousand Worlds serve as Blood Slaves to the Blood River Sect.

Every being must tribute blood periodically, fueling the cultivation needs of the sect's cultivators.

Thus, should Blood River Sect cultivators conquer the Void Realm, every creature there would turn into a Blood Slave—slain without mercy if they fail to supply blood.

Yet he never anticipated running into Blood River Sect cultivators in this place, and no less than three at Void Refining stage.

"Die."

Suddenly, the trio of Blood River Sect Void Refining cultivators launched their assault.

No desire burned in them to exchange idle chatter with the unfamiliar cultivator standing opposite.

Daring to vie for High-tier Spirit Medicine against them marked him as a deadly foe.

Best to eliminate him immediately, preventing any summons of reinforcements.

Such a move might draw far greater dangers.

Boom~~

From their forms burst a crimson river, immense and crushing, resembling a heavenly stream stretching across the boundless Void, weighing down all lifeforms beneath it, its murky depths hiding innumerable beings while exposing clusters of blood-red skulls.

In that instant, it felt like ten thousand miles had morphed into a realm drenched in blood.

Each droplet of blood harbored a talisman within.

Vast Blood Evil Qi surged in every direction, withering the surrounding vegetation.

From the blood river emerged scarlet hands, lunging at Jiang Fan and shaking the void.

Ripples spread through the Void.

"Courting death."

A chill flickered in Jiang Fan’s gaze.

From his form, he drew forth a Magical Treasure—the Great Sun Buddha Mirror.

This Magical Treasure had been steadily mended by the Celestial-Filling Furnace Talisman’s might.

By now, most of its damages stood healed.

He had once believed full restoration possible for this Magical Treasure, yet it appeared the Celestial-Filling Furnace Talisman’s strength alone fell short of perfect revival; certain components seemed absent for total renewal.

No matter. Though incomplete, the Great Sun Buddha Mirror wielded tremendous might, particularly with its True Sun Fire that perfectly countered Blood River Sect cultivators.

Suddenly, the golden Buddha mirror materialized from the void, carved across its surface with countless Buddha seals; as it emerged, it unleashed myriad golden beams, piercing the blood-red heavens. Thunderous Buddha chants echoed, startling the three Blood River Sect Void Refining cultivators into a brief halt of their Blood Evil Power.

Now, propelled by Jiang Fan’s vast Primordial Magical Power, the Great Sun Buddha Mirror spun on its face, condensing a solid golden sun. From this sun gushed torrents of cleansing golden flames—smokeless yet brimming with supreme yang and pure Buddha Power—warping and searing the air in their path.

Upon striking the earth, the golden flames bloomed into fiery lotuses, each core holding a tiny Buddha seal; they scorched not just flesh but shredded garb and Magical Artifacts alike, striking straight at the Blood Evil core of the cultivators, evaporating the malevolent force like ice under blazing sunlight.

Golden Buddha rays kept pouring from the mirror, each beam sharp as a blade and homing in on every Blood River Sect Void Refining cultivator. Even when one raised a Lifebound Blood Artifact in defense, the rays bored right through, incinerating the Blood Evil Power inside to oblivion.

Clearly, the mostly restored Great Sun Buddha Mirror now surpassed its prior strength by leaps and bounds.

"Curses, what sort of Magical Treasure is that? It suppresses our Blood River Sect’s Daoist Techniques so heavily!"

"Big trouble! That’s the fabled True Sun Fire—our abilities can barely resist it at all."

"What rotten luck, running into a cultivator who wields True Sun Fire!"

"This has to be targeted right at our Blood River Sect."

"Flee now, fast—we can’t take on this kid!"

Horror twisted the expressions of the three Blood River Sect Void Refining cultivators; a lethal peril had dawned on them.

The Magical Power surging from this enigmatic cultivator ahead was staggeringly dense, and with their command of True Sun Fire, the trio knew that even going all out wouldn’t let them prevail against this foe.

Besides, the Cangwu Immortal Mansion brimmed with plenty of Second-Grade Opportunities, making it pointless to clash to the bitter end with this opponent.

So, thoughts of pulling back already filled their minds.

Regrettably, fleeing had become impossible for them at this point.

The Blood River Sect Void Refining cultivator nearest to the Great Sun Buddha Mirror fell victim first. Golden flames licked at him, instantly reducing his robes and skin to ashes. A shrill cry escaped him as he frantically urged his blood arts to fight back, but the faster his Blood Power flowed, the more intensely it blazed—soon he dissolved into trails of dark smoke, his very soul cleansed by the golden inferno.

Next, a second Blood River Sect Void Refining cultivator whipped out a crimson banner, flinging it to conjure a massive blood fog aimed at blocking the golden radiance. Yet Buddha seals from the Great Sun Buddha Mirror blasted it apart. The golden flames surged back through the blood mist, swallowing him whole. His form writhed and contorted amid the blaze as his Blood Evil essence was ripped away by force, ending with only scorched bones littering the floor.
