Chapter 387 - 387: Shang Zhou’s Scheme

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Although the Profound Heaven Emperor became a great emperor, his dark history was forever recorded. Just as famous as him was the Heavenly Bloodshed Formation he personally created!

Back then, Elder Wang had told Su Chen that when Shang Zhou obtained this formation, it was related to the Profound Heaven Emperor. Su Chen had specially gone to look up the ancient records.

Without too much effort, he found everything about the Heavenly Bloodshed Formation.

If before, he only had some guesses, now everything was thoroughly confirmed. Shang Zhou had indeed obtained the method to set up the Heavenly Bloodshed Formation. However, unlike the Profound Heaven Emperor, Shang Zhou’s ambitions were much smaller in scale.

The Profound Heaven Emperor had directly sacrificed the entire ancient domain. While Shang Zhou simply could not sacrifice the entire East Barrens. Perhaps the current Heavenly Bloodshed Formation could barely cover the entire territory of Dashang at most. It was also because of this that there was an opportunity for him to exploit.

Of course, the biggest reason Shang Zhou could not annihilate the entire East Barrens was because of forbidden zones like the Demon Slaying Altar that existed within it. It wouldn’t be strange for one or two living great emperors to pop out from such a forbidden zone.

It was estimated the Profound Heaven Emperor had also considered this point. Thus, when laying out the Heavenly Bloodshed Formation, he had specially avoided the East Barrens.

“Heavenly Bloodshed Formation!” Hearing Su Chen’s words, the crowd immediately exclaimed in shock.

Unlike Su Chen, some people preferred to study ancient records. Many were familiar with the Profound Heaven Emperor’s name and the process of his rise, naturally knowing it clearly.

Many understood what the Heavenly Bloodshed Formation signified. After all, this was a grand formation that had once sacrificed several ancient domains. To call it notorious would not be excessive.

“What is the Heavenly Bloodshed Formation?”

There were also those who had never heard of this formation before. They remained confused as to what these words meant.

“This is a formation the Profound Heaven Emperor created in the past. It can refine the vital essence of billions of living beings for his own use. Countless years ago, the Profound Heaven Emperor relied on this formation to instantly become a great emperor. Today, Shang Zhou has set up this same formation again. If nothing unexpected happens, he likely intends to imitate the Profound Heaven Emperor!” a Saint Realm expert spoke in a deep voice.

At this moment, although this Heavenly Bloodshed Formation was simply incomparable to the one personally set up by the Profound Heaven Emperor, undeniably, this formation was enough to sacrifice everyone present. Even the Saint King Realm master, Long Wu, would be hard-pressed to escape this calamity.

“Shang Zhou, did you not plan to spare us either?” the Marquis Champion-like dark creature spoke coldly.

He was completely dumbfounded. He never imagined this former ally had been plotting against him the entire time. Hearing the discussions around him, it seemed likely Shang Zhou had intended to have them wear each other down first from the very start.

This way, Shang Zhou would have endless blood essence gathered, and the Heavenly Bloodshed Formation’s power would also be strengthened to the extreme. In the end, it could even feedback to empower the one who set up the formation.

Right now, although the Heavenly Bloodshed Formation could not instantly make Shang Zhou a great emperor, not even a quasi-emperor, the odds of him becoming a saint king were still quite high.

After all, he was already at the peak stage of the Saint Realm. Once he became a saint king, at that time, there would be very few in the entire East Barrens who could threaten him.

As long as he hid in the shadows, finding opportunities to sacrifice dozens of great empires, it might not be impossible for him to follow in the Profound Heaven Emperor’s footsteps and step into the Quasi-Emperor Realm.

“Haha… He didn’t even spare his own ancestor. How could he possibly spare you?” Just then, someone spoke in a low voice.

Hearing this, the Marquis Champion-like dark creature was instantly left speechless.

“Please, everyone, proceed on your way!”

Shang Zhou’s robes fluttered as his entire body radiated dazzling light. His entire being seemed like the spokesperson for the will of this heaven and earth. He struck out with one palm casually.

Boom!

The entire grand formation instantly let out a deafening rumble that shook heaven and earth. An extremely terrifying power erupted from the countless patterns, instantly causing many weaker existences to cry out miserably.ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ Novᴇ(l)Fɪre.net

“All!”

In a flash, heart-wrenching screams shook the firmament. Clouds of bloody mist exploded, absorbed by the red lines. With every additional drop of fresh blood, the formation’s patterns grew clearer. In the end, it seemed as if the entire world had been dyed crimson, soaked in blood everywhere.

“Do you think a mere remnant formation can trap everyone?”

The Wang family patriarch let out a long roar and turned to leave the battlefield. Rushing into the sky, he casually slashed out with dazzling brilliance stretching ten thousand miles.

It was a long sword, unleashing extremely dazzling divine light. Innumerable sword lights emanated divine radiance. Indistinctly, the chanting of a great emperor could be heard, rumbling as if able to suppress all heavens and worlds.

Behind him, more Saint Realm experts struck out. Even the dark creatures who had been mortal enemies just before now chose to attack the formation at this moment.

After all, they too understood that if they could not break through the Heavenly Bloodshed Formation today, the only fate awaiting each of them was death. There was no other path left.

Su Chen stood in the sky, his black hair draped loosely over his shoulders. He held the Azure Dragon Sword in both hands. Each strike seemed to set the sun, moon, and stars in motion, like an immortal king descending to the mortal realm, his momentum unstoppable.

His entire body emanated golden light. The stars in the sky all trembled beneath the sword might of the Azure Dragon Sword. The entire firmament seemed to quake, reaching a terrifying extreme.

Rumble!

Deafening rumbles continuously rang out as the Heavenly Bloodshed Formation flickered erratically. The blood-red lines began shattering then swiftly re-forming.

After a full fifteen minutes, tens of thousands of divine powers landed on the formation. Yet the Heavenly Bloodshed Formation remained utterly unmoving, seemingly growing even brighter.

Seeing this, many people’s hearts turned icy cold.

Even with so many saints working together, they could not smash the formation. It seemed likely no one present could break open this formation, unless a quasi-emperor or a great emperor personally arrived. Otherwise, none present would escape death.

“Haha… You are merely wasting your efforts. Today, you are destined to be unable to break this formation. It’s better for you to obediently stay and die!”

Shang Zhou did not act to stop the crowd from attacking. Rather, he watched the scene before him with great interest. The more these people resisted, the more excited he became. Because their resistance caused countless deaths, which conversely helped him. The fiercer their struggles, the faster the Heavenly Bloodshed Formation absorbed their blood essence..
