Strongest Medical Saint-Chapter 693: The Unanticipated Path

The air grew increasingly thick with the scent of blood.

Shen Feng slowly exhaled a breath and started to read through the essentials of the Blood Emperor Jue Cultivation Technique written on the ground again.

From Earth to the Lower Realm.

The Prophecy Stele led to the appearance of numerous mysteries, all seemingly arranged by someone with utmost care for him, and perhaps long before he was born, everything had been prepared.

Once, he was just an ordinary college student on Earth, and by a twist of fate, he arrived in the Immortal Realm. Why would someone arrange all this for him now? It seemed as if after his return to Earth this time, the gears of his destiny had shifted in an entirely different direction.

This feeling had always made Shen Feng uncomfortable. Back in the Immortal Realm, he constantly struggled to break through to the Immortal Emperor Stage; he did not want his destiny to be controlled by others, yet everything happening now proved that there was a hand in the shadows, pushing him forward.

Whoever had arranged everything for him so many years in advance, that mysterious benefactor’s Cultivation was unfathomable, beyond Shen Feng’s ability to even estimate.

Starting from the moment he had entered the grand hall.

In fact, the mysterious creator of the golden structure had left a glimmer of hope everywhere.

There were multiple passages around the grand hall, and if those people had entered in an orderly fashion, within the time it takes an incense stick to burn, there would have been enough time for everyone to enter the passages.

But in the face of crisis, the first thought for most is to survive. Even if a small portion of people didn’t think this way, under the influence of the majority, they could only scramble to enter the passages faster.

All of this was within the calculations of that mysterious figure. Even had they managed to enter the passages safely, fear was that each passage would lead to a chamber filled with Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, and the allure of such treasures was more than the average Cultivator could resist.

Moreover, with the current severe shortage of Cultivation resources in the Lower Realm, seeing a chamber full of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures and the message left at the entrance, those Cultivators would undoubtedly start to slaughter each other.

That mysterious figure was using human nature to kill; perhaps he didn’t want to massacre the innocent, but he needed to gather a pool of Cultivator’s Blood, hence he used this method, allowing those who deserved death to die!

Shen Feng had only briefly browsed through the Blood Emperor Jue just now.

But now, after scrutinizing it more closely, the Cultivation Technique’s essentials carved on the ground only represented the Initial Chapter of the Blood Emperor Jue!

However, after slowly comprehending the Initial Chapter of the Blood Emperor Jue, he couldn’t help but reveal an incredulous look in his eyes. Merely this Initial Chapter would increase his Cultivation speed to a level that was subtly stronger than the Emperor King Jue, of course, not counting the speed at which the Black Dot within his Dantian absorbed energy.

But now, Shen Feng was retracing his path of Cultivation anew; hence, he faced practically no bottlenecks when breaking through various realms.

Should his Cultivation return to its peak from the past, then as he strived to break through further, he would encounter bottlenecks. The more powerful the Cultivation Technique, the faster one’s progress in overcoming these bottlenecks.

Of course, practicing two different Cultivation Techniques simultaneously is inadvisable. Not only would it slow the rise in one’s own Cultivation level, but the disadvantages of cultivating two techniques at once would multiply as one’s Cultivation rose, and the chances of deviation would increase accordingly.

However, Shen Feng’s Emperor King Jue was a combination of strengths from various sources, having integrated many different Cultivation Techniques to complete it.

He wondered whether, after cultivating the Blood Emperor Jue, he could integrate it into the Emperor King Jue as well. Wouldn’t that mean he would essentially be cultivating just one technique?

But integrating the Initial Chapter of the Blood Emperor Jue, which on its own offered a faster Cultivation speed than Emperor King Jue, into it was unlikely to be an easy task.

As he was contemplating this while comprehending the Blood Emperor Jue.

Suddenly,

tiny whirlpools began to eddy in the pool of Cultivator’s Blood in front of him, followed by an unbearably pungent smell of blood that fiercely wafted through the air, causing Shen Feng to frown involuntarily.

At the same time,

as the small whirlpools appeared in the pool, the space above it violently trembled, and power capable of tearing everything apart slowly spread in all directions.

Shen Feng, who was at the edge of the pool, naturally was the first to bear the brunt of this tearing force. His clothes rapidly ripped apart, and he immediately felt as if his body was about to split into pieces. Moreover, the force tearing the space apart was intensifying continuously.

He was just outside the pool! With the situation at that moment, Shen Feng was nearly unable to withstand the pressure, it was imaginable how great the crisis lurking inside the pool must be.

Shen Feng glanced at the various holes on the surrounding walls, knowing that with the continuously intensifying tearing force, even if someone could make it here later, they would likely not dare to step out of the holes.

After considering this,

Shen Feng calmed his emotions slightly, his teeth clenched gently as he muttered to himself, "No matter who has arranged all of this, just wait, don’t think you can control me forever, making me follow the path you’ve laid out."

As his words faded,

he plunged into the pool.

He didn’t walk in gradually but jumped directly into it, as taking it step by step would have been even more painful.

As he was completely submerged in the Cultivator’s Blood,

he instantly felt the specially treated blood, like countless sharp needles that could pierce through anything, relentlessly stabbing into his flesh and even into every meridian and bone in his body.

Excruciating pain caused Shen Feng to be drenched in sweat, but he couldn’t stop now. Inside his body, he began to circulate the cultivation technique according to the guidelines of the Initial Chapter of Blood Emperor Jue.

Although the cultivation within his body was still being suppressed, there was no obstacle in practicing a completely new cultivation technique.

As the Initial Chapter of Blood Emperor Jue slowly began to cycle, Shen Feng felt it attempting to transform the Emperor King Jue.

This was not a fusion of cultivation techniques, but a transformation. If the Blood Emperor Jue fully transformed the Emperor King Jue, the latter’s characteristics would completely disappear, leaving only the Blood Emperor Jue in the end.

It seemed that the mysterious powerhouse wanted him to truly cultivate the Blood Emperor Jue, abandoning all other techniques.

Shen Feng’s eyebrows were tightly knotted as he struggled with all his might to prevent the Blood Emperor Jue from transforming his Emperor King Jue.

He indeed wanted to merge these two techniques, but the merger did not mean transformation. After merging, a new technique would be formed, retaining some characteristics of both the Blood Emperor Jue and the Emperor King Jue.

"I’ve said it before, don’t try to control me forever. The technique I will cultivate in the future will definitely not be the mere Blood Emperor Jue; I will embark on a path you never expected."

"Just wait and see! I, too, am looking forward to the day we meet!"

Shen Feng gritted his teeth, the intense pain in his body becoming increasingly ferocious. Soaked in the blood, his skin was rapidly dissolving. He kept gasping for air through clenched teeth, yet his consciousness remained relatively clear, and he was persistently controlling his body to prevent the Blood Emperor Jue from completely transforming the Emperor King Jue within him! fгeewebnovёl.com
