Chapter 302 Blood Pool Ritual! The Arrival of the Heavenly Gu Sect Master
The blood-red crystal's pulse slowed to an extremely slow pace, forcibly halting the self-destruction process.
"This...how is this possible!" Count Blood Leech's voice was filled with disbelief; even in the frozen moment, his consciousness remained clear.
Jiang Mo reached out and, passing directly through Count Bloodleet's chest, grasped the crimson crystal: "The core of the Dark Bloodline, I'll take it."
With a gentle tug, the crimson crystal was completely removed.
Count Blood Leech's body slumped down instantly, as if his soul had been ripped away.
"No...impossible...my core..." Count Bloodleet's voice grew weaker and weaker.
Golden light surged in Jiang Mo's palm, covering the crimson crystal: "Golden Gu Divine Power, Light of Purification!"
Under the golden light, the crimson crystal gradually turned golden-red, and the dark aura was purified little by little.
As the core was purified, Count Blood Leech's body began to collapse, turning into countless blood-red particles that dissipated into the air.
"Dead?" Jiang Mo was somewhat surprised. "It seems his connection with the dark bloodline was too deep; once the core was purified, his physical body couldn't be maintained."
Jiang Mo put the purified crystal into his pocket and walked deeper into the castle.
Although Count Bloodleech is dead, the blood pool ritual in the basement may still be ongoing.
Following the winding corridor, Jiang Mo quickly found the stone stairs leading to the basement.
The stone steps are deep and winding, and the stench of blood grows stronger as you go deeper.
When Jiang Mo arrived at the basement, a shocking scene unfolded before her eyes.
A huge pool of blood, covering hundreds of square meters, is located in the center of the basement.
The bright red liquid churned in the pool, radiating a suffocating energy fluctuation.
Hundreds of people dressed in white robes stood around the blood pool, their expressions blank and their eyes lifeless, clearly under control.
Even more shockingly, the space above the blood pool has become noticeably distorted, and a black crack is slowly forming!
"The ritual has begun." Golden light flashed in Jiang Mo's eyes. "Even with Count Bloodleech dead, the energy accumulating in the blood pool continues to open channels."
At this moment, a blood-red vortex suddenly rose in the center of the blood pool, and a blurry human figure gradually emerged from the center of the vortex.
Although the figure was indistinct, the chilling aura it exuded was unsettling.
"Sect Master of the Heavenly Gu Sect!" Jiang Mo narrowed his eyes and immediately recognized the newcomer's identity.
The figure in the crimson vortex seemed to have noticed Jiang Mo as well, and let out a chilling laugh.
"Jiang Mo, we meet again." The voice of the Heavenly Gu Sect Master seemed to come from the depths of hell.
"It seems you've dealt with Count Bloodleech. You're quite capable."
Jiang Mo sneered: "Your henchmen are too weak, not worth mentioning at all. What, are you now preparing to take action yourself?"
The Heavenly Gu Sect Master chuckled sinisterly, "Now is not the time."
"The alignment of the seven stars is not yet fully complete, so my power cannot be fully unleashed."
"However..." His voice suddenly turned fervent, "With the power of this blood pool, I can temporarily summon an avatar, enough to fight you!"
As he spoke, the crimson vortex spun violently, and the liquid in the blood pool rushed into the center of the vortex, gradually solidifying the figure!
"Not good!" Jiang Mo's expression changed, and he immediately attacked, unleashing the Golden Gu Divine Might and the Sealing Light!
Golden light flashed like lightning, shooting straight at the blood-red vortex, attempting to prevent the arrival of the Heavenly Gu Sect Master.
However, the energy accumulated in the blood pool was too enormous. Although the golden light slowed down the rotation of the vortex, it could not completely stop it.
"Hahaha, Jiang Mo, you can't stop me this time!" The Heavenly Gu Sect Master's voice was filled with the joy of victory.
A crimson vortex suddenly erupted, and a terrifying energy surge swept through the entire basement!
When the energy fluctuations subsided, a tall figure dressed in a black robe stood in the center of the blood pool.
His face was gloomy, his eyes flashed with seven-colored light, and he was surrounded by dense black energy, exuding unparalleled pressure.
Although it was just an avatar, it already possessed a considerable portion of the power of the Heavenly Gu Sect Master.
"Jiang Mo, today I'll show you what true Gu Dao power is!"
The Heavenly Gu Sect Master's clone gave a sinister smile and casually waved his hand.
The liquid in the blood pool instantly transformed into countless blood-red blades, attacking Jiang Mo!
"Dark Gu Technique, Ten Thousand Blood Devouring the Heart!"
Jiang Mo remained expressionless, the divine power of the Golden Gu flowing within his body, and golden light blazing brightly in his palm.
The golden light transformed into countless tiny golden insects, forming a solid barrier around Jiang Mo and blocking all the blood-red sword blades.
"A mere clerk dares to be so insolent before me?" Jiang Mo sneered, taking the initiative to attack, "Golden Gu Divine Might, Gu God True Form!"
A burst of golden light erupted, and Jiang Mo's body was once again enveloped by the true form of the Gu God. With a single step, the entire basement trembled!
The true form of the Gu God punched the clone of the Heavenly Gu Sect Master with a golden light that swept away everything in its path!
The Heavenly Gu Sect Master's clone's expression changed slightly. He formed a hand seal, and a black light screen appeared, attempting to block the punch.
"Dark Gu Techniques, Netherworld Barrier!"
The fist collided with the light screen, unleashing a deafening roar!
The black light curtain trembled violently, countless cracks appeared, and it looked like it was about to collapse!
The Heavenly Gu Sect Master's avatar looked horrified: "This is impossible! How can your power be so strong?"
Jiang Mo sneered: "Sect Master of the Heavenly Gu Sect, your biggest mistake was underestimating the inheritance of the Gu God!"
"Since the battle in the Illusion Forest, my Golden Gu Divine Power has advanced even further."
"Today, I'll show you what true Gu God power is!"
As he spoke, Jiang Mo threw another punch, this time the golden light on his fist was even more dazzling, like a blazing sun!
"Golden Gu Divine Might, Fist of Retribution!"
The fist slammed into the clone of the Heavenly Gu Sect Master like a meteorite.
The black light barrier completely collapsed under this punch, and the Heavenly Gu Sect Master's clone was also directly hit in the chest!
With a painful roar, the Heavenly Gu Sect Master's clone was blasted away, crashing heavily into the basement wall and embedding itself in it!
A huge dent appeared in his chest, and black energy kept leaking out of the wound.
"Damn Gu God successor..." The Heavenly Gu Sect Master's clone struggled to crawl out of the wall, his eyes flashing with madness.
"I won't give up like this!"
Dark Gu Technique, Blood Pool Sacrifice!
As he chanted his incantation, the people around him who were being controlled suddenly screamed in agony.
Their bodies rapidly withered, their life essence forcibly extracted and injected into the blood pool!
The Heavenly Gu Sect Master's clone opened his arms, greedily absorbing the energy, and his injuries healed at a speed visible to the naked eye!
"Despicable!" Jiang Mo's eyes flashed with golden light, but it was too late to stop those people from dying.
After absorbing the life energy of the sacrificed, the aura of the Heavenly Gu Sect Master's clone became even stronger.
His injuries have fully healed, and he's even stronger than before!
"Jiang Mo, this is the difference between you and me."
The Heavenly Gu Sect Master's avatar laughed wildly, "You are bound by morality, but I don't care about such things!"
"For power, I'm willing to pay any price! That's why I'll be the one to ultimately triumph!"
