Dragon Blood Saint Emperor

The Endless Wilderness was not only home to countless Sects, but also concealed many terrifying Ancient Races.

These Ancient Races possessed ancient lineages and profound power. Even Major Sects dared not rashly provoke powerful races such as the Feather Race.

And now, Ye Wushuang had stumbled into the territory of a clan even more terrifying than the Feather Race: the Giant Spirit Clan!

The Giant Spirit Clan was the largest Ancient Race in the Endless Wilderness. Rumor had it they were related to the Barbarian God Race of the Ancient Era. They possessed powerful physiques, innate Divine Power, and unrivaled Combat Power, inheriting certain traits from the Barbarian God Race.

For this reason, some suspected that the Giant Spirit Clan were the surviving descendants of the Barbarian Gods.

This was because the Giant Spirit Clan not only resembled the Barbarian God Race in physique, but the Divine Spirit they worshipped was also the legendary Desolate God.

In the eyes of the Giant Spirit Clan, the Barbarian God was supreme and inviolable.

Therefore, any ritual to worship the Barbarian God was an event of the utmost importance to the clan, and not a single trace of disrespect would be tolerated.

And today, just as the entire clan was performing their ritual, an outsider had barged into this place.

He had even landed on the sacrificial altar, desecrating the Barbarian God!

This was something that had absolutely never happened in countless millennia!

COUGH! COUGH!

In the dead silence, the sound of Ye Wushuang coughing up blood echoed like the tolling of a great bell.

The giant he had encountered earlier was terrifyingly powerful. It had sent him flying here with just a single swing of its axe!

That terrifying strength was easily on par with an expert of the Spiritual Spring Realm.

Ye Wushuang stood up and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. Before he could even survey his surroundings, he felt a prickling on his back, as if he were being stared down by terrifying beasts. A bone-deep chill washed over him.

Ye Wushuang frowned and turned. His pupils immediately contracted.

Within his line of sight stood row upon row of figures as large as small hills, all staring at him with stunned expressions.

He was now standing on a massive sacrificial altar!

The altar was vast, as large as seven or eight football fields. On all four sides, a nine-tiered staircase of massive stone steps descended. Each tier was about eleven feet high, making the total height ninety-nine feet—a very peculiar design.

Staring at the terrifying figures before him, Ye Wushuang’s heart pounded, and the color drained from his face.

These beings were thirty to forty feet tall, like small mountains. Not only were they enormous, but they also exuded terrifying auras. Many among them were at the Spiritual Spring Realm, with no shortage of experts at the Spiritual Spring Ninth Layer.

An ordinary person would have been scared witless by the sight.

The giant standing at the very front was especially frightening; his aura was even more terrifying, having already reached the Star Elder Level.

This giant was, in fact, an expert of the Yin Yang Realm!

Seeing this, Ye Wushuang’s heart sank into an abyss. He didn’t dare move a muscle. ’One wrong move, and I’m dead!’

The crowd below the altar was also staring at Ye Wushuang.

Today was their sacred ritual. They had even posted guards outside to prevent any disturbances, yet an outsider had still managed to interrupt them.

To interrupt the ritual was to desecrate the Barbarian God—to desecrate the Divine Spirit they revered!

In an instant, their eyes filled with murderous intent.

Pairs of eyes like bronze bells glared furiously at Ye Wushuang.

Seeing their expressions, Ye Wushuang smiled bitterly to himself. He knew all too well that he had trespassed into the territory of the Ancient Race, the Giant Spirit Clan, and ruined their sacred ritual.

Ye Wushuang had read about this Ancient Race in old records. ’They worship the Barbarian God and consider their rituals to be of the utmost importance. Now that I’ve interrupted them, there’s no way the Giant Spirit Clan will let me go!’

Ye Wushuang’s mouth opened slightly as if to speak, but he stopped. ’In a situation like this, any explanation would be futile.’

"Clan Leader, this man interrupted our ritual! We cannot let him off lightly!" an aged voice was the first to speak. It was an Elder of the Giant Spirit Clan, one of their most devout worshippers of the Barbarian God.

Hearing the Elder speak, everyone else turned to the Yin Yang Realm expert at the front, awaiting his judgment.

The Yin Yang Realm expert fixed his grave gaze on Ye Wushuang, anger smoldering in his deep, vast eyes.

However, with his eyes locked on Ye Wushuang, he failed to notice a strange, subtle change occurring on the Barbarian God Statue.

On the head of the Barbarian God Statue, fine cracks suddenly appeared on its stone eyes, spreading outward like a spiderweb.

CRACK! CRACK!

Within a few short breaths, the cracks multiplied. As the stone eyes began to crumble and disintegrate, the subtle sounds finally caught the attention of some of the Giant Spirit experts.

Even the Yin Yang Realm expert sensed it and shifted his gaze away from Ye Wushuang.

CRACK! CRACK!

Before their very eyes, the stone eyes continued to crumble away until, in the blink of an eye, they vanished completely.

This bizarre change made the expressions of everyone in the Giant Spirit Clan twist in horror. They grew terrified, as if witnessing the apocalypse. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

The ritual had been broken. The Barbarian God was furious!

Many of them cried out in terror. A few even prostrated themselves on the ground, devoutly chanting ancient incantations.

Ye Wushuang turned to look as well and saw it. ’The Barbarian God Statue’s eyes... they’re gone!’

BOOM!

Suddenly, the very instant Ye Wushuang turned his head, the Barbarian God Statue trembled violently. Two terrifying beams of Divine Light shot out from where the stone eyes had been.

The two beams of Divine Light seemed to originate from the dawn of creation. Possessing vast Divine Might and boundless power, they pierced through the void and shot deep into the Endless Wilderness.

BOOM!

BOOM!

Its movement triggered a chain reaction.

As the Barbarian God Statue trembled, the entire Endless Wilderness began to shake, as if some peerless horror were about to be born into the world.

At the same time, on the distant horizon, the skies roiled as beam after beam of Divine Light shot toward the heavens. They pierced the Firmament, leaving massive vortexes in the void, as if they had torn holes in the sky itself.

The violent tremors grew increasingly intense. Even Ye Wushuang felt as if the very earth were about to overturn, and his heart pounded in shock.

Meanwhile, everyone from the Giant Spirit Clan had prostrated themselves on the ground, including the powerful Yin Yang Realm expert at the front.

They bowed their heads repeatedly, ancient and mysterious chants spilling from their lips. Were they praying for something, or giving thanks?

Ye Wushuang also frowned deeply. ’I never expected my arrival would cause such an astonishing change!’

However, he had no time to dwell on it. Seeing that the terrifying members of the Ancient Race were no longer focused on him, he immediately executed Floating Light and Shadow to escape.

’This is my only chance to survive. If I miss it, I’ll be doomed beyond redemption, and no one will be able to save me!’

WHOOSH! Without a backward glance, Ye Wushuang shot off the altar, his figure disappearing into the void.

But at that moment, the void before him began to warp. It became a barrier that even his Shadow Kill technique couldn’t traverse. ’If I try to force my way through, I’ll be shredded by the Space Power!’

WHOOSH!

Left with no choice, Ye Wushuang was forced to emerge from the void.

Behind him, the eyes of every member of the Giant Spirit Clan snapped back to him, fixing on his figure now exposed in the air.

"You will stay!"

A vast and powerful voice boomed from the Yin Yang Realm expert.
