Chapter 806 Bloody Contract
The Blood River Patriarch's withered fingers twisted eerily in the air, dark red runes entwining like venomous snakes, instantly dyeing the entire sky blood red. Yun Yao's palm, gripping the Jinghong Sword, was covered in sweat, and the blade trembled slightly, as if it too feared the terrifying power that was about to descend. Amidst the bloody mist, she saw a dense web of veins emerging from the Blood River Patriarch's neck, like countless wriggling earthworms, emitting a sickening stench.
"Bloody Sacrifice!" The Blood River Patriarch's voice seemed to emanate from the Nine Netherworlds, filled with evil and madness. His body began to rapidly shrivel, his three hundred years of life transforming into wisps of blood mist, condensing into a gigantic phantom in the void. The phantom wore a skull crown and a tattered black robe. In its hand, it held a sickle composed of countless bones, each engraved with strange incantations. The Blood Demon's phantom opened its empty eye sockets and unleashed a deafening roar. Wherever the sound waves passed, space shattered, forming black cracks.
The Jinghong Sword wailed mournfully under the Blood Demon's imaginary pressure, the runes on its blade dimming. Yun Yao bit her tongue and spat her blood onto the sword, attempting to awaken its power, but with little success. The Blood Demon's phantom swung its scythe, and a streak of blood-red light pierced the air, aiming for Yun Yao's throat. In the nick of time, Chu Mochen, like a flash of black lightning, intervened before Yun Yao. The Hanyuan Sword collided with the blood-red light, unleashing a dazzling burst of light and immense force. Chu Mochen was thrown back, blood oozing from the corner of his mouth.
Just as Yun Yao was about to launch another attack, the system interface suddenly flickered violently, revealing a new option: "Sacrifice your Void Realm cultivation in exchange for a temporary awakening of the fragment." Below the option, a red button radiated a mysterious glow, as if tempting her to make a decision. Yun Yao's pupils constricted slightly. Her Void Realm cultivation was the fruit of countless days and nights of painstaking practice. If she sacrificed it, she would lose her immense power and become a weakling at the mercy of others.
However, the Blood River Patriarch's attacks intensified, and Chu Mochen's injuries worsened. Yun Yao looked at Chu Mochen's pale face and the widening bloody hole on his chest, and an indescribable pain welled up in her heart. Just as she hesitated, Chu Mochen suddenly grasped her hand, and golden lines shone on his fingertips, like the flow of ancient divine patterns. "Use my blood," Chu Mochen's voice was weak but firm. "When you fell, I signed a bloody contract with the Heavenly Dao..."
Before he finished speaking, a fragmented mark identical to Fairy Yunhua's appeared on Chu Mochen's palm, radiating a brilliant light. Yun Yao was shocked to discover that the spiritual energy within Chu Mochen's body began to surge wildly, a powerful and mysterious force erupting from his body. The Blood Demon's phantom, sensing this force, froze on the spot, its frantic movements coming to an abrupt halt. A flicker of fear seemed to flash through its hollow eye sockets.
The Blood River Patriarch's expression suddenly changed. He had clearly not anticipated such a sudden change. "Impossible! The Blood Contract of the Primordial God has long been lost. How could you possibly..." His roar was filled with shock and resentment. However, before he could finish his words, the golden lines on Chu Mochen's body suddenly transformed into a stream of light and merged into the fragments within Yun Yao's body.
Yun Yao felt a warm and powerful force surge into her body. The fragment began to vibrate violently, its light growing brighter. In her mind, the System's voice was filled with surprise: "The power of the Blood Contract has been detected. The fragment has entered a temporary awakening state! The host has gained the ability of 'Heavenly Resonance', temporarily borrowing the power of the Heavenly Dao!" Yun Yao's eyes instantly sharpened. She felt the power within her body constantly rising, as if resonating with the entire universe.
At this moment, the Blood River Patriarch, unwilling to accept defeat, once again manipulated the Blood Demon's phantom to attack. However, this time, Yun Yao showed no fear. With a gentle shout, the Jinghong Sword radiated with brilliant light, its incomplete patterns echoing those of Chu Mochen. Yun Yao swung her sword, and a golden ray imbued with the power of the Heavenly Dao pierced the blood-red sky, colliding with the Blood Demon's phantom's scythe.
A violent explosion echoed, and blood-red light and golden sword light collided fiercely in the air, forming a massive energy vortex. Yun Yao and Chu Mochen were thrown back by the powerful impact, falling heavily to the ground. But their eyes were filled with determination and hope. The Blood Demon phantom of the Blood River Patriarch began to collapse under the attack of the golden sword light, turning into a bloody rain that fell from the sky.
However, just as everyone thought the crisis was about to end, the Blood River Patriarch suddenly let out a sinister laugh: "Do you think this is the end? How naive!" His body began to swell, and countless blood threads shot out from his body, weaving into a huge blood net in the air, enveloping Yun Yao and Chu Mochen. The blood net exuded a powerful confining force, and Yun Yao and Chu Mochen felt as if their bodies were bound by countless invisible hands, unable to move.
"This is the Blood Demon Sect's forbidden technique—the Blood Prison Sky Net!" System Lord's voice was filled with anxiety. "Once completely bound, you will be refined into blood slaves!" Yun Yao and Chu Mochen exchanged a glance, a flicker of determination in their eyes. They simultaneously channeled their inner strength, attempting to break free from the blood net's constraints, but the net tightened ever tighter, their struggles seemingly futile.
At this critical moment, Yun Yao suddenly remembered the "Heavenly Resonance" ability the System Lord had mentioned. She closed her eyes, concentrated her mind, and attempted to connect with the Heavenly Dao. In her sea of consciousness, the fragments of the chapter shone brightly, and a golden beam shot up into the sky, resonating with the power of the Heavenly Dao in the sky. Yun Yao felt a vast and mysterious power surge into her body, and her hands burst into a dazzling light.
"Break!" Yun Yao shouted, pulling with both hands. Golden light transformed into countless sword energies, piercing the Blood Prison Sky Net. The net sizzled under the attack of the sword energy and began to crack. Seeing this, Chu Mochen also mobilized the remaining strength within him. The light on the Hanyuan Sword surged, and together with Yun Yao's sword energy, he attacked the blood net.
Under their combined attack, the Blood Prison Sky Net was finally ripped open. Yun Yao and Chu Mochen seized the opportunity, flashing through the gap. The Blood River Patriarch's expression darkened. He hadn't expected his forbidden technique to be broken. "Since that's the case, let's perish together!" The Blood River Patriarch laughed wildly, his body rapidly expanding like a balloon about to burst.
"Oh no! He's going to self-destruct!" the system shouted. Yun Yao and Chu Mochen's faces changed drastically. The force of the explosion was enough to reduce an area of a hundred miles to the ground. Without time to think, they immediately used their skills to escape desperately. However, the Blood River Ancestor's self-destruction was extremely fast, and a powerful shockwave quickly swept towards them.
At the crucial moment, Chu Mochen suddenly shielded Yun Yao behind him, forming hand seals. A golden barrier unfolded before them. The shockwave slammed into the barrier with a deafening roar. Chu Mochen's face instantly turned pale as paper, blood oozing from the corners of his mouth. However, he remained firmly holding the barrier, preventing the shockwave from harming Yun Yao in the slightest.
Yun Yao watched Chu Mochen endure the damage for her, her heart filled with both emotion and guilt. She gritted her teeth, channeling all her strength into the fragment. The fragment shone brightly, and a golden light shot out from her hand, merging with Chu Mochen's barrier. With their combined strength, the shockwave's power finally weakened.
When the explosions finally died down, Yun Yao and Chu Mochen collapsed to the ground, exhausted. Their clothes were tattered, their bodies covered in scars, but their eyes were filled with the joy of having survived. Yun Yao looked at Chu Mochen and secretly vowed in her heart that no matter how many difficulties and obstacles lay ahead, she would face them together and never separate.
At this moment, in the distant void, a pair of malicious eyes were watching them. The voice of the Pavilion Master of Tianji Pavilion echoed in the void: "The reincarnation of Yunhua, the reincarnation of Taichu Divine Lord, your good show has just begun..."
