Chapter 753: Purple Blood Magic Book_1
A voice, which seemed to control everything, suddenly echoed throughout the Purple Blood Demon treasury.
"Who is it?"
Han Wuji immediately stopped his actions, his cold eyes stared into the treasury, a bad premonition forming in his heart: "Could it be the being that the Purple Blood Cosmic God had sealed within the treasury?"
He had no idea what the Purple Blood Cosmic God had left behind in the treasury.
"Han Wuji, the Cosmic God once mentioned that you are too ambitious and full of schemes. Just as expected, as soon as the Cosmic God fell, you were so impatient to split the Purple Blood Demon God's Sect."
Whoosh whoosh whoosh... A purple storm was howling, amidst the endless noble light.
From deep within the treasury, a figure emerged. He was an old man wearing a purple robe, a faint smile on his face.
"Master?"
Zi Ling Demon God glanced at this elder and immediately shook her head: "No, you aren't my master. Though you bear some resemblance to him, my master's face isn't as aged as yours. Speak, who are you really? Why are you impersonating my master and appearing in this Purple Blood Demon treasury!"
The entity before her looked somewhat like the Purple Blood Cosmic God, but Zi Ling Demon God was sure he wasn't!
"Haha, you were just a child when the Cosmic God brought you back. He spent a great deal on you to reach the fifth stage of enlightenment."
The elder chuckled, "I am the master of this treasury, you can consider me as the Purple Blood Cosmic God!"
"Hmph! You're not the Purple Blood Cosmic God, reveal your true identity at once!"
Han Wuji didn't want to see him keep this charade up any longer.
This elder, who looked somewhat like the Purple Blood Cosmic God, exerted immense pressure and unease on him.
"The Cosmic God has perished, I am now the Sect Master of the Purple Blood Demon God's Sect. Han Wuji, you need to obey my orders!"
This elder waved his broad sleeves, considering himself the Sect Master of the Purple Blood Demon God's Sect.
He swung a mighty Purple Blood hand seal, casting a dark shadow over the sky, embodying the powerful vibrations of the fifth stage. He launched a direct attack on the most disobedient Han Wuji.
"This is my master's Purple Blood Demon Technique, but you have managed to cultivate it to such a level!"
Just like the Cosmic God himself carrying it out, Zi Ling Demon God was shocked.
From the elder's familiarity with the Purple Blood Demon Technique, she deduced that he was the creator of the technique himself. However, his performance unveiled the power of the World God.
"It's impossible for it to be the Purple Blood Cosmic God!"
Han Wuji knew, the Purple Blood Cosmic God had been dead for a hundred thousand years, this elder might be a failsafe left behind in the treasury.
With a loud roar, he gave his all and clashed with the elder in a fierce battle.
In an unbelievable turn, the elder's power seemed to far exceed his own, and he was sent flying off with just one blow.
"Purple Blood World!"
Boom! A world of Purple Blood descended all around, the elder's eyes were cold, his dominating aura overwhelming. At this moment, he clenched his hand, trapping Han Wuji within the Purple Blood World. Han Wuji's body was subjected to immense pressure.
"You've even learned this move!"
Han Wuji exclaimed in shock.
Bang! The Purple Blood World exploded open, sending Han Wuji flying; Despite his strength, he was defeated in just a few moves, beaten by the elder.
"You... Who exactly are you!"
Han Wuji, trembling, could not figure out the origin of this elder.
"Hmm, you can call me Purple Blood, the heir to the Cosmic God."
This elder called Purple Blood calmly spoke, controlling everything.
"Purple Blood?"
Zi Ling Demon God pondered, "I've never heard of an individual by your name in the Purple Blood Demon Sect!"
"Young lass, although you might not have heard of me, you have seen me."
His mysterious statement left Zi Ling Demon God even more puzzled.
Suddenly, a stream of Purple Blood Demon Qi flowed from Purple Blood's body. Following this, they saw a book, a Purple Blood colored demon book, its countless flashing runes and multitudes of words recording and elucidating the true essence of the Purple Blood Demon Dao.
"The Purple Blood Demon Book!"
Zi Ling Demon God and Han Wuji exclaimed in surprise.
The elder wasn't a being after all, he was actually a book, the Purple Blood Demon Book.
This Purple Blood Demon Book was the product of the Purple Blood Cosmic God's endless efforts over countless years. It recorded various demon techniques, consumed a great deal of his life essence, and was considered as the sacred book of the Purple Blood Demon Sect. Countless disciples have received teachings from it.
What they didn't expect was for the Purple Blood Demon Book to develop self-awareness, its own book spirit, and reach a profound level of cultivation.
"My consciousness was born a long time ago, and I've been cultivating continuously, though you were unaware of this. Back then if not for the fact that I was in a crucial and deep level of cultivation, tell me Han Wuji, how could you have managed to split the Purple Blood Demon Sect?"
The Purple Blood Demon Book scoffed, "All the treasures you saw are within my book world."
"Senior Purple Blood Demon Book." Zi Ling Demon God quickly approached him, "Senior, you were created from the lifeblood of our master. Since our master is no longer with us, it is indeed right that you take control of the sect. However, Han Wuji refuses to fall in line, we need to deal with him!"
She felt a sense of familiarity seeing the Purple Blood Demon Book.
"Mm, even the Cosmic God did not foresee that he would die in the Cosmic Sea. Han Wuji is indeed powerful, killing him would be a waste, but keeping him would also pose a problem. I will extract his soul seal and suppress it within my book world, thereby gaining complete control over his life and death."
The Purple Blood Demon Book slowly spoke.
"No, I won't let you extract my soul seal!"
Han Wuji shouted vehemently. If his Soul origin was taken, he wouldn't have control over his own life and death. He roared furiously, "I am willing to listen to you and reestablish the Purple Blood Demon Sect!"
"That wouldn't be up to you."
The Purple Blood Demon Book was quite imposing, but its gaze turned towards Shen Youzhe, "Xu Jing Tian, I know you. However, the person beside you doesn't belong to my Purple Blood Demon Sect, a very strange and enigmatic existence, as if he is from the dark abyss. Who are you?"
"Nobody can live here, regardless of how unusual you are. Once you've entered my book, even a dragon would have to yield to me!"
The Purple Blood Demon Book planned to take action against Shen Youzhe.
He might appear as a book, but the Purple Blood Cosmic God had sacrificed too much to create him, we could only guess at the price the Cosmic God had to pay. The world within his book was created by the Purple Blood Cosmic God, using countless treasures he had collected.
During his multiple ventures into the Cosmic Sea, most of the treasures were used to create him.
Purple light surged and an awe-inspiring strike was launched, Purple Blood Demon Book reached out for Shen Youzhe.
Shen Youzhe wore a mask, his expressions were hidden. He executed the Shen You universe move, disappearing into nothingness.
But the Purple Blood Demon Book snorted disdainfully. Had they been in the outside world, Shen Youzhe's move would undoubtedly be tricky, but here it was his world; he manipulated all the rules.
Shen Youzhe was shaken out, albeit without sustaining any real damage.
"It's troublesome!"
Xu Jing Tian muttered under his breath.
He hadn't expected for a book demon to be born in the Purple Blood Demon treasury, leaving him in its control.
"Purple Blood Demon Book, a book spirit, you wish to harm my people?"
An invincible aura descended.
Normally, the Purple Blood Demon treasury would be closed off under the control of the Purple Blood Demon Book, virtually impossible for someone from outside to enter.
However, an exalted being carrying an unparalleled imperial might smashed down, a heavenly gigantic hand shaking the cosmic space-time, appearing inside the Purple Blood Demon treasury.
