Chapter 234: Uprising of the Immortal Beasts

“Where have all the Immortal Beasts hidden? Why can’t we find them anywhere?”

At this moment, three Immortals were searching for the whereabouts of the Immortal Beasts, ultimately coming up empty-handed and deciding to regroup.

“Du Xian, these are your trained Immortal Beasts. How is it even possible that you couldn’t find them?”

The two Immortals mocked Du Xian, who was indeed the trainer of the Immortal Beasts.

“I don’t know either! By their habits, they shouldn’t be this hard to find.”

“How could you be so clueless? Your trained Immortal Beasts have run off, and you can’t bring them back? It’s a wonder you’re still the top trainer at the Immortal Valley!”

The two continued their jabs, feeling helpless as they were forced to hunt for the Immortal Beasts, after spending most of the day without even spotting the last of them.

“Du Xian, if we find those Immortal Beasts, you’d better reward us with some magical artifacts. This mess is really too much for us.”

As the two continued to ridicule him, Du Xian suddenly felt his mind disturbed by an outside force, unwittingly moving closer to them.

With a swift move, he struck one of the Immortals on the back, cold blood energy invading his body, merging with his spiritual energy and causing an extremely violent reaction.

“What… why is this happening suddenly…?”

The Immortal clutched his chest, enduring the sharp pain, and turned to look at his companion, Du Xian.

“You…”

His eyes remained wide open in shock, and he breathed his last without ever closing them.

“Du Xian, what are you doing?!”

The other Immortal immediately sensed something was wrong, channeling his spiritual energy and power.

However, Du Xian’s blood energy shot out like a bolt, striking the other Immortal.

When blood energy clashed with spiritual energy, its destructive power rapidly surged, triggering a severe reaction within the Immortal.

Before long, the Immortal collapsed to the ground, succumbing to excruciating pain and losing his life as well.

“Dead.”

Now aware, it was the consciousness of the Blood Beast confirming the demise of these two Immortals.

Ling Huang Xian had enhanced him to the point where he could effortlessly face Immortals; as long as the opponent contained spiritual energy, his blood energy could bring about their doom.

But aside from this blood energy infiltration technique, he had no other powerful moves—this was all he had.

But it was enough; currently, a bloodbath in Zifeng Valley was completely effortless.

One couldn’t overuse blood energy at once, so he preferred to strike them down in batches. After all, why bother with a hassle when he could wipe them all out in one go for the thrill?

After all, he had successfully performed this bloody act on many sects before.

With each Immortal he killed, he could absorb their essence, turning it into nutrients that restored his status, aiming to return to the level of a divine Blood Beast.

Once regained to the divine Blood Beast level, combined with the strength granted by Ling Huang Xian, he would be free to sweep through the Immortals of the mountains and valleys at will.

Alright, next up was to initiate the uprising of the Immortal Beasts.

The Blood Beast’s gaze turned to the living quarters of the Immortal Beasts; with so many Immortals dead now, taking them out one by one seemed unrealistic and inefficient; better to do it all at once.

Those Immortal Beasts cursed by the Blood Curse also posed a threat to the Immortals’ safety.

Their teeth harbored the latent poison of the Blood Curse, and if they were to bite, the poison would react violently with the Immortals’ spiritual energy, leading to their doom.

Let’s go.

……

“Listen, Ruo’er, right now the Immortal Beasts are willing to listen to you. You must tell them that this matter can be resolved by Lin Nuo; they can rest assured.”

“Yes~! Young Master, I’m already telling them~! I absolutely believe that Young Master can solve this matter~!”

Lin Nuo instilled confidence in Ruo’er, saying that with issues among the Immortals, he was there to rescue the Immortal Beasts; they had to heed his instructions.

The Immortal Beasts that had been captured one by one for training returned in a lifeless state, lacking any vitality.

Then, the other Immortal Beasts began to get agitated again. Ruo’er was responsible for calming them down, using the opportunity to declare that Lin Nuo was the only one who could save them.

In truth, his version of “saving” meant letting them escape down the mountain. Now that so many Immortals had died, their attention was focused on this event, creating conditions for chaos—time to take advantage of it.

That’s right, step by step leading the Immortal Beasts to the Rain Rainbow Cave, concentrating forces, and releasing them all at once.

Lin Nuo had gained a deeper understanding of these Immortal Beasts, knowing they had the ability to leave Zifeng Valley; they were just afraid of getting intercepted by the Immortals on the way.

No problem, as long as they split into multiple groups and scatter in different directions, those Immortals didn’t have enough personnel to capture them all. A couple of them would definitely escape Zifeng Valley.

Then they could shirk responsibility, saying that these Immortal Beasts suddenly went berserk; after all, the Immortals knew nothing of their intentions.

Who knew why they fled? Just call it a revolt!

Lin Nuo and the others returned to the place where the Immortals kept the Immortal Beasts. A few that hadn’t been taken for training were excited to see Ruo’er, wagging their tails if they had them, or sticking out tongues if they didn’t.

“Alright, alright~ You must be hungry too. Let me feed you something~”

Ruo’er continued her usual routine of feeding the Immortal Beasts, who gladly accepted the food she offered.

Under Ruo’er’s comfort, the emotions of these Immortal Beasts calmed considerably.

Lin Nuo thought it was about time for them to take the Immortal Beasts out for a walk; being cooped up in the magic array all the time could make them withdrawn.

Lin Nuo noticed that Du Xian, the chief trainer of the Immortal Beasts, had been missing for a long time. As soon as he returned, he took the Immortal Beasts for training, and when they came back, they were lifeless.

But it had nothing to do with him; there was no conflict of interest. That trainer likely trained the Immortal Beasts to be puppets for their use.

Don’t be fooled by how noble the Immortals seemed; they could be quite ruthless when they chose to be.

Suddenly, the sounds of various Immortal Beasts crying out echoed through the air.

“Young Master, what’s happening?” Ruo’er suddenly looked worried.

“Don’t worry, let’s take them out for a walk. Trust me, it’ll be fine.”

Lin Nuo urged Ruo’er to continue leading a few Immortal Beasts, as more and more Immortals rushed toward the place where the Immortal Beasts had just howled.

“Senior Martial Brother, the Immortal seniors are all rushing there! Is something going on?”

“Don’t worry about it; it’s not our concern.”

Lin Nuo spoke nonchalantly on the surface, but inside he was overjoyed. Though unsure of what was happening, it seemed a rebellion was brewing, drawing the Immortals away.

A rebellion was great; now Lin Nuo could let these Immortal Beasts escape and quickly leave Zifeng Valley, spreading their notoriety.

Ruo’er hurriedly led the Immortal Beasts, rushing as if the ducks were being chased, encountering Immortals on the way and claiming there was a major issue that required them to evacuate the Immortal Beasts first.

Soon, they were nearing the Rain Rainbow Cave.

Little did they know, just nearby, a fierce battle was taking place.

The Old Immortal, who had previously played chess with Lin Nuo, was engaged in combat with Du Xian, who was possessed by the Blood Beast’s soul.

“Poof!”

The Old Immortal desperately used his own blood to absorb the blood energy of the Blood Beast, then coughed it out, barely managing to stay alive.

“Du Xian… no, you’re not Du Xian. Who are you?!”
