Chapter 285: The Blood-Patterned Tripod

The old man's eyes were murky, and although he appeared feeble, his spirit and vitality inspired awe, as if he were an unattainable, towering mountain range overlooking the vast earth.

With the sudden appearance of the old man, the group of elders in the Medicine Valley instantly erupted. Their incredulous gazes converged on the elder, and they couldn't help but exclaim, "It's the Supreme Elder... the Supreme Elder!"

"It really is the Supreme Elder!" The Medicine Sect's pupils abruptly contracted, his eyes filled with disbelief. The Supreme Elder was the oldest member of the Medicine Sect and also the most terrifying in strength. Some had rumored that he had long since passed away, yet today they saw him in the flesh.

The group of experts from the Medicine Valley immediately began to discuss. This living fossil of the Medicine Valley had cultivated for countless ages, and his current cultivation was unimaginable. Though he was now aged, his divine might remained.

The Supreme Elder's eyes were murky, but when he noticed the three figures ahead, his opening and closing pupils shot out a piercing golden light that tore through the void ahead, terrifyingly powerful.

"Good heavens, it seems this old man is an Emperor realm expert. No wonder he almost discovered me that day." Yang Tian couldn't help but click his tongue. The Medicine Valley had hidden two Emperor realm experts, something the ancient aristocratic families could never match.

"Although this old man is formidable, he doesn't have much life left. He has taken longevity-extending pills before." At this moment, Yang Xiao spoke slowly. With the concealment of the Ancestral Dragon Ring, even such an expert couldn't detect his spying.

Hearing this, Yang Tian glanced at the old man without changing his expression, but the Supreme Elder slightly turned his head, swept a strange look at Yang Tian, and then withdrew his gaze.

"Did he recognize me?" Yang Tian scratched his head, his heart tightening.

Within the barrier, three figures shrouded in black mist were indistinct, but their faint majesty and terrifying aura made heaven and earth tremble.

At this moment, the mist around them rolled slightly, as if they couldn't believe this ancient monster was still alive.

"Two Emperor realm experts—this is troublesome." A trace of coldness flickered in the Human Venerable's eyes. These two were extremely terrifying in strength, and the outer barrier wouldn't hold for long.

"Brother Longyang, we need to hurry and break the seal, or if they break in, it will cost us a lot of effort!" The Earth Venerable glanced at the other two, speaking darkly.

"Indeed, it's best not to use that thing if possible." The one called Longyang nodded. He was shrouded in black mist, his features unclear, but his aura was extremely terrifying.

"Hehe, if we hand the cub over to the Palace Master, we three brothers will gain no small benefit." The Human Venerable let out a strange, harsh laugh, greed swirling in his eyes.

With that, the three venerables stopped absorbing the surrounding demonic energy. Suddenly, a terrifying wave spread from within their bodies, and monstrous malevolent energy surged, shaking the void in all directions, frighteningly dreadful.

Their bodies appeared in the void, demonic energy surging forth from within. Black light, like a tide, filled the sky. The three were terrifyingly powerful.

Rumble! The terrible black light formed a massive energy pillar, cold and eerie, like a divine pillar piercing through the layers of formations below.

Boom! On the ground, a six-pointed star flickered. Though the formation had been corroded, its power remained, unleashing terrifying waves that clashed with the demonic pillar in the void.

Rumble! The void echoed with continuous, ear-splitting explosions. The sky collapsed. The three venerables were extremely terrifying, their demonic energy like blazing suns, striking down madly.

The six-pointed star swayed, its brilliant luster dimming bit by bit. As demonic energy surged over it, the light curtain emitted by the star was gradually corroded.

This corrosion was very fast. In the abyss, ghosts wailed and wolves howled. Hideous tentacles manifested, slapping against the formation—a scene that shook the heart.

The sight before him gave Yang Tian an immense shock. Such monsters were terrifyingly frightening, sealed for hundreds of thousands of years yet still so tenacious, and this was only the outer formation.

"Damn it, they've cut off the external flames, so the formation's power can't be unleashed." The Medicine Sect's eyes turned cold as he looked at the surrounding barrier, and he shouted angrily.

"All disciples, do your utmost to strike the surrounding barrier. The seal must not be broken, or this will be a great calamity for the Medicine Valley!" The Medicine Elder strode forward like a dragon or tiger, showing no sign of age, his voice cold.

In the past, the demon was sealed here, and the Medicine Valley had guarded it for generations. This mission had continued for hundreds of thousands of years, and they had never broken their oath.

Several dozen experts, their battle qi soaring like rainbows, each a terrifying figure, unleashed their power. Blood energy shot into the sky, artifacts appeared, and all directions trembled. Here, the light was blazing, and terrifying energy waves continuously struck the surrounding barrier.

The Medicine Sect roared in anger, his hair flying wildly. The divine spear in his hand thrust forward, causing the sky to tremble violently. He was immensely powerful, his blood energy surging like crashing waves, madly piercing the barrier.

In the Medicine Elder's hand was a blood-colored tripod, three-legged and two-eared, covered with blood patterns. The tripod's mouth spewed blood flames that even burned the void, and it exuded fierce energy, imposing a soul-suppressing pressure.

"Eh? Isn't this the Blood-Patterned Tripod? Such strong killing intent, and it can affect the soul—it's become a soul-attacking treasure!" Seeing the tripod in the Medicine Elder's hand, Yang Xiao showed a hint of surprise and murmured inwardly.

"This is the Blood-Patterned Tripod. The old sect master has mastered this tripod!" Joy appeared in the Medicine Sect's eyes. This heavenly artifact was the strongest in the Medicine Valley, possessing soul-attacking abilities—a priceless treasure!

The Supreme Elder nodded slightly. In his hand was a blood-colored longsword, its blood patterns very similar to those on the tripod. The entire sword emitted blood light, and wisps of terrifying sword energy leaked out, instantly slicing the sky apart.

"These are the Blood-Patterned Longsword and the Blood-Patterned Tripod—the two great killing weapons of the Medicine Valley!" The excitement in the Medicine Sect's eyes grew even stronger. His battle qi soared into the sky as he madly attacked the barrier.

The two great killing weapons were extremely terrifying. The Blood-Patterned Tripod was like a giant cauldron reaching the sky. The Medicine Elder activated its power, enveloping a space tens of thousands of zhang in size, radiating a fearsome heavenly might.

Boom! The Blood-Patterned Tripod struck, crushing the sky. With a thunderous crash, the massive barrier shook violently, twisting as if it were about to shatter.

The expressions of the three venerables changed slightly. Their gazes fell on the tripod in the void, and they couldn't help but twitch their mouths. This was a terrifying killing weapon, and its power was frighteningly great.

Just as they were shocked, the entire void suddenly became filled with ten thousand layers of killing intent. All the experts trembled in fear, looking up.

In the void was a giant sword reaching the sky, its light blazing like a towering mountain range, boundless to the eye. The void roared with wind and thunder, the sky collapsed, and extremely terrifying waves erupted.

The giant sword rose straight up. The Supreme Elder stood in the void with his hands behind his back, divine light shooting from his eyes. The giant sword in the void trembled violently, shattering mountains and rivers!

"Chop!" The Supreme Elder shouted softly. His body was ablaze with golden light, his blood energy terrifyingly fearsome, burning like flames as he performed a fearsome divine ability.

The sword spewed out immeasurable blood light, ten thousand zhang of divine radiance, and killing intent bloomed. The giant blade slashed down. Then, terrifying blood blades struck out madly.

Dense blood blades fell like a torrential rain from the sky, extremely shocking.

Boom! The entire barrier shook and twisted, producing ear-splitting explosions. Then, the dense, endless blood blades, like a downpour, madly swept down and pierced the barrier.

Here, ten thousand layers of killing intent filled the air, nearly turning it into a place of destruction, shaking the space. The blood blades in the void, like a net covering the sky, made everyone's scalp tingle.

Some experts of the Medicine Valley were dumbfounded. This killing weapon was too terrifying; the waves it emitted made their souls tremble involuntarily—a pressure on the soul.

The two terrifying killing weapons continuously shook the barrier. The entire barrier twisted violently, showing signs of collapsing.

"Such powerful heavenly artifacts!" The three venerables exclaimed inwardly, greed flashing in their eyes. Nowadays, heavenly artifacts were rare on the continent; many divine objects were hidden in heaven and earth and rarely appeared.

Even some superpowers rarely possessed divine objects. Divine objects had spirits and chose their masters. On the current continent, except for the most ancient hidden forces in the Central Region, heavenly artifacts had become supreme weapons.

"Brother Longyang, you hold them off for a while. Leave the sealing to us two." At this moment, the Earth Venerable spoke calmly.

"Alright, I'll stall for some time." Hearing this, Longyang nodded slightly. His cold gaze fell on the twisting barrier. In his hand appeared a pitch-black mirror, densely covered with divine patterns, radiating terrifying energy waves.

At this moment, Yang Tian's pupils abruptly contracted. He sensed that this mirror seemed familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere before.
