"Creation Divine Palace!" Lin Bai said in a low voice.
Bai Xiaoxiao frowned, looked at Lin Bai, and said, "Look at the time we’re in, stop keeping us in suspense. If you have a solution, just say it outright."
Lin Bai said, "It’s still not certain yet. I have to enter the Creation Divine Palace and take a look first!"
"Xiaoxiao, did you bring the Token to enter the Creation Divine Palace?"
Bai Xiaoxiao took out the Token from the Storage Bag, handed it to Lin Bai, and said, "Ever since you gave me the Main Order of the Creation Divine Palace, I’ve been carrying it on me at all times."
Lin Bai received the Token and said, "Since that Blood Demon King is so desperate to obtain the Creation Divine Palace, then there must be something inside this palace that he wants, or perhaps something within that he fears."
"I’ll enter the Creation Divine Palace now and search around. Perhaps I’ll discover something."
"Before I return, I’ll trouble all of you to keep a close eye on every move atop the Miracle Ridge."
Lin Bai spoke to Bai Xiaoxiao, Yin Jiuling, and the others.
Bai Xiaoxiao nodded slightly and said, "Go."
At once, Lin Bai stirred his mind. The Token of the Creation Divine Palace in his hand flashed, and his body directly vanished from within the Great Hall.
After many years, Lin Bai once again arrived within the Creation Divine Palace.
Standing inside the Creation Divine Palace, Lin Bai directly called out, "Elder Fish, are you still here?"
Whoosh—
Before Lin Bai, a Shadow of a person flickered, and an old fisherman wearing a Straw Rain Cape appeared in front of Lin Bai, clasped his fists, and called out, "Friend Lin Bai, it has been a long time!"
Lin Bai spoke bluntly to Elder Fish, "Elder Fish, you are the Artifact Spirit of the Creation Divine Palace. Regarding every single thing in this place, you know it like the back of your hand, do you not?"
Elder Fish nodded and said, "I do."
This Elder Fish was precisely the Artifact Spirit of the Creation Divine Palace.
Back when Lin Bai had taken a master and learned the arts atop the Miracle Ridge, he had Once received Elder Fish’s guidance.
Afterwards, when Lin Bai became the Palace Master of the Creation Divine Palace, Elder Fish acknowledged Lin Bai as his master. Later, after Lin Bai handed the Creation Divine Palace over to Bai Xiaoxiao, he had never again come into the palace.
Lin Bai said, "This place was personally forged by Lord Qinghe of my Sky-swallowing Clan. I’ve come today to find out whether, when Senior Qinghe forged the Creation Divine Palace back then, he left behind any method to deal with the Blood Fiends."
When Elder Fish heard this, he chuckled lightly and said, "I had already guessed that your return to the Creation Divine Palace must be because of the Blood Demon Chaos!"
"Since that’s the case, come with me."
At once, Elder Fish waved his hand, and within the Creation Divine Palace a road appeared out of thin air.
Elder Fish led Lin Bai onto this Gu Dao that radiated multicolored light.
At the end of the Gu Dao, there was an ancient gate flickering with light, blocked off by layers of Sealing restrictions upon it.
Elder Fish said, "This place holds the method Lord Qinghe left to deal with the Blood Fiends. However, only clansmen of the Sky-swallowing Clan may enter."
Hearing Elder Fish’s words, Lin Bai was taken aback. He walked to the gate, stretched out his palm, and pressed it upon the door. At once, the Devouring Sword Spirit within his body flashed.
The ancient gate before him, sealed in dust for ages, rumbled as it split open a crack.
Lin Bai stepped directly inside.
As soon as Lin Bai entered, the gate slammed shut.
Inside the gate, everything was pitch-black.
"Looks like the Blood Fiends can no longer be held by the Sealing. Fortunately, I seem to have found a clansman of the Sky-swallowing Clan."
From within the darkness, a voice came.
Lin Bai heard this voice, incomparably familiar, and cried out in shock, "Senior Qinghe!"
One must know, the remaining soul of Qinghe on the Chi Xian Sect Battlefield had, after Lin Bai’s battle on the Miracle Ridge back then, sacrificed itself to save Lin Bai’s life, and The remaining soul of Qinghe was annihilated along with it.
This had always been the thing that weighed on Lin Bai’s heart with guilt.
In the darkness, a wisp of flame leaped up, illuminating the surrounding gloom. Lin Bai saw that within that blaze of crimson candlelight, an aged figure was looking at him, a faint smile on his face.
"Senior Qinghe, it really is you..." Lin Bai said, overwhelmed with emotion.
Qinghe smiled slightly and said, "It is me, yet it is not me. What you saw before should have been a Split Soul I left within the Chi Xian Sect Battlefield."
"But here is another Split Soul of mine."
"Enough, my clansman, my time is short."
"From the moment you pushed open this gate, the time I can exist is only Three hours."
"After Three hours, I will disperse into ash."
"Next, you must listen carefully. I will teach you the method to deal with the Blood Fiends."
Qinghe spoke quickly.
Lin Bai no longer interrupted Qinghe’s words and listened intently.
Qinghe said, "Since you’ve come to this place, it means the Blood Fiends can no longer be held by the Sealing."
Lin Bai nodded and said, "Yes, the Sealing atop the Miracle Ridge has already begun to loosen."
Qinghe nodded slightly and said, "The Blood Fiends are incarnations of the Giant God’s fresh blood. They inherit much of the Giant God’s Strength, so once they are born, their power is boundless. With only the Barbaric Ancient Continent’s current Martial Art level, it is very difficult to completely annihilate the Blood Fiends."
"Yet...it is not as though there is no way at all."
Qinghe said calmly.
Lin Bai frowned and asked, "What way?"
Qinghe smiled faintly and took out a sphere of light from his bosom.
Lin Bai looked into that sphere of light and saw within it a Demon Beast, neither quite dragon nor quite serpent.
"What is that?" Lin Bai asked curiously.
Qinghe said, "This is my Martial Soul, the Swallowing Heaven Dragon Snake."
Lin Bai frowned as he looked at Qinghe, doubt on his face.
Qinghe spoke in a low voice, "Back then, when I knew I would surely die, I foresaw that the Blood Fiends would bring endless calamity upon this world. Thus, I tore my own Martial Soul from my body and, exhausting my Mental Strength, forged it into a Magical Treasure capable of slaying the Blood Fiends!"
"Take my Martial Soul and place it upon the Giant God Corpse Bones. At that time, my Martial Soul will unfurl, and its Devouring Power will instantly raze the entire Miracle Ridge, and even tens of millions of miles around it, to the ground!"
"The Devouring Power will shatter the Earth, the firmament, and the Void around the Miracle Ridge in an instant!"
"By then, the Blood Fiends here will Naturally be directly annihilated."
Qinghe handed the sphere of light to Lin Bai and spoke lightly.
Lin Bai received the light sphere, his expression sinking slightly.
Qinghe chuckled softly and said, "What you’re thinking is that since I already had a solution, why did I allow the Blood Fiends to grow back then, instead of directly using my Martial Soul to wipe them out completely, isn’t it?"
Lin Bai nodded and said, "Yes."
Qinghe said, "Back then, right after the Giant God died, the Blood Fiends were not so numerous. Moreover, I had already Supported the rise of the Red Immortal Sect. Given the Strength the Red Immortal Sect possessed then, destroying the Blood Fiends should not have been difficult."
"But in the end, the Red Immortal Sect rebelled, unwilling to exterminate the Blood Fiends. Only then did the Blood Fiends multiply madly, reaching a point where the situation could no longer be controlled!"
