Open your eyes.

Take a good look at who I am.

How scary. Who are you?

Tian...

He is Lord Tianlun himself!

Cult Leader!

No way!

Are you kidding me?

Wanfa Sect's leader is
the head of an evil cult?

What kind of third-rate author wrote this?

What a ridiculous story line!

Did we get the wrong script?

Since you know my secret now,

you can't walk out of here alive.

Guards.

Capture them.

Mr. Tianlun, this is a misunderstanding.

My name is Wang Lu.

I'm the Successor Disciple
of Lingjian Sect's Fifth Elder.

We're one big family.

You're dismissed now.

Yes, Cult Leader. We're all friends.

Fifth Elder?

That bitch

who destroyed our branch
in Baiyue Country.

Once a master, always a master.

It's natural for a disciple
to pay for his master's debts.

Leave your head as payment
for your master's debt.

Great.

To be honest,

Mr. Tianlun,

my master and I aren't close.

She always creates trouble.
I've long wanted to kill her.

We can use this opportunity

to report her to Sect Leader Feng Yin.

-Okay.
-Let's go.

Wait.

Mr. Tianlun.

Mr. Tianlun.

Like master,

like disciple indeed.

You're both shameless.

And you.

Elder He, right?

Since you're so loyal to him,

you can die with him.

Mr. Tianlun.

Actually, I haven't told you
my other identity yet.

Don't you think we look alike?

That's enough, shut up!

-Take them away.
-Yes.

-Hey.
-What?

What took you so long to get water?

The chicken I roasted for you
is already cold.

Well, I saw a bunch of people
by the river earlier

saying they wanted to join Aixin Sect.

According to them, once you join,

your life would be prolonged.

Your life would be prolonged
if you joined?

-Really?
-Really.

-Really?
-Yes.

Then, why do we undergo cultivation?

Wang Zhong, why are you becoming more
stupid as you train in the mortal realm?

-No.
-I'm telling you.

Based on the name of Aixin Sect,
it's obviously a fraud.

No, I heard the Sect Leader

seems to be Wang Lu.

Wang Lu?

It seems Aixin Sect started
in Wuhou County.

Now, it has already spread to
the states of Yun, Lei and Qiong.

It's now a small-scale sect.

Wang Lu?

Maybe someone with the same name?

Wang Lu is a common name.

It's popular.

It's Lingjian Sect's Wang Lu.

He has two assistants.

Their names are Hai Yunfan and Wen Bao.

What's the mission of Aixin Sect?

He says

that if everyone gives a bit of love,

the world would become a better place.

That sounds familiar.

But basically,

it still teaches people
ways to prolong their lives.

However, those techniques we usually learn

seems to require Spiritual Root.

Without Spiritual Root,

how did Wang Lu do it?

That's right.

How did he do it?

Unless

he's using extreme measures.

Extreme measures...

You're saying Young Master...

I mean, Wang Lu

is teaching those citizens

evil techniques?

That's right.

Wang Lu.

Even if I'm usually against you,

I never thought
you wouldn't have any limits.

You're even more vicious than me.

That's right.

No.

No.

If he teaches evil techniques to citizens,

wouldn't he be punished by the heavens?

Wang Zhong, write this down immediately.

Afterward, we'll tell Elder Fang He,

so he can handle this.

No.

Young Master took me
under his wing before.

And he even defended you.

Is that the right thing to do?

Wang Zhong.

Look at me.

Look at me.

Am I still that...

The royal son who plays around?

-I...
-No.

You're not.

In our training this time,

I've been observing

the things I see.

Suddenly,

I had an epiphany.

I realized

that fighting with Wang Lu before

is so childish.

It's so immature.

As a human...

No.

In cultivation, we must move forward.

However, this time,

he's harming innocent citizens.

I can't just sit back and watch.

I'll write a letter to Elder Fang He

and let him punish him leniently.

I also don't want Young Master
to go into the wrong path.

Is it delicious?

It's a bit salty.

It's a bit salty, yet you finished it?

Don't just focus on eating the chicken.

It's a bit salty indeed.

Fine.

Let's say what you said is true.

You and I have nothing
to do with each other.

But regardless if you're Empress Ye Li

or just Liuli Xian,

Qianling Cult is evil indeed.

It's dangerous here.
You must come with me.

The leader of Qianling Cult

is my father.

What?

Li.

Father.

You're Hai Yunfan, right?

I have your friends, Wang Lu

and that fat boy.

What did you do to them?

They dare to cause trouble on my turf.

They're dead meat.

You're Lord Tianlun?

I didn't expect

that the leader of one of the five major
sects is the head of an evil cult.

If Junhuang Sect's second royal son
kneels and begs,

I can let you live.

But you must stay here

and accompany my daughter, Li.

Don't think of going anywhere else.

Who wants him to be here?

I don't know him at all.

All right.

If my daughter
doesn't want you to be here,

be with Wang Lu and your friend.

Then you can die together.

-Guards.
-Wait.

What is it, Li?

You want him to stay here?

As long as you're happy
and you won't leave me,

I can spare him.

Kill him.

Of course, you must kill him.

Whoever intrudes on our holy cult

should die.

It's just that I suddenly remembered

that Hai Yunfan and Wang Lu

both have rare Spiritual Roots.

Before the lunar eclipse tonight,

if we can use their blood
in the formation,

it's better than the blood of thousands.

Especially Wang Lu.

He has a rare Void Spiritual Root.

His blood must let us
achieve our purposes better.

Good idea.

You're my daughter indeed.

Sacrificing themselves
for the Wanxue Formation

is their honor.

Xiaohai, don't you have
the Teleportation Talisman?

Get us out of here.

It's no use.

Lord Tianlun is the leader
of one of the five major sects.

He's almost a Semi-Deity.

Within his turf,

Xiaohai's talisman wouldn't have any use.

What should we do then?

We still need to save Liuli Xian.

No.

There's no need to save her.

Has she already gotten out?

She's not the Liuli Xian we know.

Her real name is Ye Li.

She's the empress of Qianling Cult.

The daughter of Lord Tianlun.

It's all just wishful thinking
on our part.

How is that possible?

She must want to save us

and purposely lied
in front of Lord Tianlun.

Don't be stupid.

She was the one who made the suggestion

to sacrifice our blood

before the lunar eclipse tonight.

What?

Sacrifice our blood?

That's right.

Lord Tianlun made a Wanxue Formation

and they will do
the blood sacrifice ritual tonight.

I understand it now.

Sect Leader.

What do you understand?

On the way here earlier,

didn't you notice the bones on the floor?

All these years,

the Qianling Cult has been
accumulating human blood.

Isn't that for the Wanxue Formation?

If I'm not mistaken,

once the formation is done,

Lord Tianlun will be able to master
that incredible evil technique.

What evil technique?

Do you still remember

the Qianyuan Ranxue Technique?

It uses human lives and blood
in exchange of one's cultivation.

The Wanxue Formation uses the same logic.

It's just that the former
uses his own blood

and the latter uses the blood
of thousands of people.

So Xiaoliuli...

No.

Ye Li

has been lying to us from the start.

She just wanted to use us.

Xiaohai.

The mind of humans is amazing.

You believe

whatever the girl says.

Haven't you ever considered
that she has her reasons?

What can they be?

Never mind that she's
Lord Tianlun's daughter first.

Think about it.

If she's really as ruthless as you say,

when you first intruded

in the Qianling Cult,
she could have killed you.

Why should she wait
until Lord Tianlun comes?

Also,

when Lord Tianlun arrived

and wanted to kill us on the spot,

she made an excuse for sacrificing us

and keep us alive until tonight.

Isn't this a delaying tactic?

Wang Lu, are you serious?

The problem is how can we escape?

Even if we live until dark,

we'll still die.

Wang Lu, think of something.

Based on our capabilities,

fighting Lord Tianlun is like
the David versus Goliath situation.

At this time,

I can only ask for my master's help.

Master, we're relying on you.

Master.

Come and save me, I'm going to die.

Your voice sounds energetic.

You don't sound like you're dying.

I'm getting drunk right now.

Don't ruin my mood.

I knew you'd ignore me.

But it's different this time, Master.

In Qianling Cult's headquarters
in Yunli State,

I found out a big secret.

I'm not interested in your secret.

This secret is related
to your former lover, Ouyang Shang.

You can decide whether to come or not.

Wang Lu!

You dare to threaten your master?

Wang Wu, this is a crucial moment.
Ignore him first.

Let Liang Qiu handle it.
It should be fine.

I'll send someone to go
and check it out too.

Don't worry.

I still know

my priorities.

Wang Wu.

It's related to Head Disciple.

No wonder Wang Wu is so anxious.

But the Six-Spike Blood Poison
isn't completely out yet.

Wang Wu is leaving in a hurry.

I'm afraid it would cause hidden issues.

Don't worry, Lu Li.

We almost cleared all the poisonous blood.

What's left shouldn't cause a big problem.

I hope she can find
Head Disciple's trace this time.

I hope Wang Lu didn't lie to Wang Wu.

Otherwise, she'd be disappointed again.

Wang Lu, will that work?

That's our last resort.

My master

is not easily affected
or upset by trivial matters.

If we don't mention Ouyang Shang,

she wouldn't care.

What if she gets mad?

Two things might happen.

She'd ignore me and won't talk to me.

Or she'd barge right in.

That would help us destroy Qianling Cult.

The odds are equal. It's worth the risk.

Go to hell.

It seems we've lost.

I know that too. Get over there.

Wang Lu.

Why don't you ask for
Ms. Liang Qiu's help?

She's a 100-year-old Sword Spirit.
She's very knowledgeable.

Maybe she has a way to help us escape.

That makes sense.

You jerk.

You dare to use Ouyang Shang for your lie.
You deserve to die.

You all talk about Ouyang Shang
like he's a saint.

What an unreliable woman.

What did you say?

Liuli Xian.

Liuli Xian.

What Wang Lu said is true.

You lied to me to save me, right?

While my father is not aware yet,

leave through the back mountain.

Let's go together.

Show some respect.

I don't know you.

And I'm not Liuli Xian.

The reason I'm letting you go

is because I don't want
more people to die for this.

That's all I can say.

Leave if you don't want to die.

You say you don't know me.

So why are you keeping
the insignia I gave you?

You mean this?

I know you're lying.

Your eyes can't fool me.

Xiaohai, let's go.

If not, it would be too late.

Leave if you want.

If she wants to degrade herself,

I'll accompany her.

Ms. Ye.

Please lead the way.

Cult Leader.

It's finally going to be over.

Cult Leader.

Why did you let Empress free them

instead of eliminating them for good?

We'll accomplish our goal soon.

There's no point in unnecessary killings.

And I can tell

that Li likes Hai Yunfan.

I don't want her to be sad.

Cult Leader, you're so smart.

All these years,

thank you for staying by my side.

You saved my life.

Serving you and helping you
accomplish your goals

is what I, Gaoqiao Lan, wish for.

It's just that...

Cult Leader.

That thing.

Do we really need to do it?

Of course.

I've waited for this day for so long.

It's just that Li is still so young

and she would need to handle
such a great responsibility.

But your sacrifice is too great.

-You even--
-That's enough.

Stop it.

To accomplish that,

everything is worth it.

Yes, Cult Leader.

You're awake.

Sect Leader.

Where's Liuli Xian?

At this time,

she should be holding the ritual
for Wanxue Formation.

Why did you knock me out?

Who are you to decide for me?

Yes, Wang Lu.

We just left like this.

What about Liuli Xian?

Who says we're leaving?

It was urgent earlier.
If I didn't make you faint

and we were discovered,

none of us can make it out.

Besides,

if we want to save Liuli Xian,

don't we need to escape first?

I guess you're right.

Wang Lu, you've considered
all aspects indeed.

I thought you just left Liuli Xian.

Can't you trust me a bit more?

I'm sorry, Wang Lu.

I was mistaken.

That's fine.

Haven't we already agreed?

We should all be together.

Let's go and save her.

Mr. He, coordinate with us.

Understood, Sect Leader.

QIANLING CULT WANXUE FORMATION ALTAR

The auspicious hour has come.

Qianling Wanxue, all nations come.

Qianling Wanxue, all nations come.

-Qianling Wanxue, all nations come.
-Mother.

Qianling Wanxue, all nations come.

Qianling Wanxue, all nations
will come to an end.

Qianling Wanxue, all nations
will come to an end.

Qianling Wanxue, all nations
will come to an end.

Qianling Wanxue, all nations
will come to an end.

Qianling Wanxue, all nations
will come to an end.

Qianling Wanxue, all nations
will come to an end.

Li.

Did you hear it?

It's the voice of Black Stream.

They're finally here.

Father.

I'm cold.

Li.

Don't be scared.

I'm here.

After you've sacrificed yourself

and completed the seal,

I'll go with you.

Stop!

Stop.

Don't fight with them.

Didn't I tell you to get
as far away as you can?

Why did you come back?

The four of us are the best partners.

How can we leave you alone?

Father.

Do it.

Liuli Xian.

Xiaohai.

Stop.

Father, I'm begging you. Don't kill him.

I'll do whatever you want.

Don't worry.

I know you like him.

I won't kill him.

Xiaohai.

Lord Tianlun.

Don't you think you're pitiful?

To master this evil technique,
you're even sacrificing your own daughter.

You jerk.

If not for my daughter,
I would already have killed you.

Don't you know what's good for you? Scram.

Do you know what this is?

FREEZE

Freezing Talisman.

What do you want to do?

Think about it.

If your pool of blood becomes frozen,

would your formation still work?

You dare to do that?

Watch me.

What exactly do you want?

Release Liuli Xian first.

Then we can talk.

Fine.

I agree.

Blood sacrifice ritual for the seal.

Set traps all over.

It's no use.

This is the dark ice boundary that my
father set up using his primordial spirit.

Unless he removes it himself
or his primordial spirit is harmed,

we can't do anything
based on our cultivation level.

That's...

That's Black Stream.

"Black Stream"?

Over a hundred years ago,

the demons held a blood sacrifice ritual
to open the seal of Black Stream.

People were harmed
and their lives were destroyed.

So the purpose of your father's formation

is not to master his technique but to...

It's not like that.

My father is doing this
to repair the Qingmu Seal

to keep Black Stream away.

You mean

the Qingmu Seal that keeps
Black Stream away is damaged?

That's right.

What you saw just now

is Black Stream that leaked in

from damages to the Qingmu Seal.

So your father is setting up
the Wanxue Formation

to repair the Qingmu Seal

and not to harm people?

Is there any father

who would sacrifice
his child's life to harm people?

Set up the formation.

We can't let them destroy our formation.

I've waited

for this moment for over ten years.

Ten years ago,

my father discovered
the cracks to the Qingmu Seal.

TEN YEARS AGO

-Hurry.
-Father.

Look, what's this?

Why is there such a crack
in the Qingmu Seal?

If the Qingmu Seal is damaged,

I'm afraid the world would be in danger.

This is just an ordinary seal.

Why do you look so serious?

All these years,

every time the Qingmu Seal
is mentioned, you avoid the topic.

What function does the Qingmu Seal have?

Why does the Wanfa Sect
need to protect it?

Do you know

what's outside the Nine Continents?

Outside the Nine Continents?

A vast space, of course.

Even though there's a vast space

outside of the Nine Continents,

it's not empty.

In the darkness,

in that darkness that we can't see,

there are many evils.

The scariest one

is a kind of poisonous gas.

This poisonous gas is called Black Stream.

Thousands of years ago,

humans and demons collaborated
their great powers

and set five seals,
namely gold, wood, water,

fire, and earth.

Then they set up a boundary
to protect the Nine Continents

so that Black Stream
wouldn't be able to invade it.

But since it was set up through
great power thousands of years ago,

why did such a crack appear?

A hundred years ago,

humans and demons went to war.

The demons saw that their era
is over and they would lose,

so they decided to break the seal
that keep Black Stream away

to perish together with humans.

Good thing Lingjian Sect's
Golden Disciples found out in time.

Their head disciple, Ouyang Shang,

decided to sacrifice himself
to repair the seal

and destroyed the demons' plan.

So these five seals

are being kept by the five major sects.

I see.

I didn't think that this Qingmu Seal

would affect everyone.

Good thing I discovered this in time.

And your power is limitless.

You can seal it again.

Father, aren't we the heroes
who'll save the world then?

It might seem that
I've repaired the Qingmu Seal,

but it's still very fragile.

It's actually just a temporary relief
that will result in disaster.

If I'm not mistaken,
in less than ten years,

the entire Qingmu Seal
would completely break.

Even gods wouldn't be able
to repair it when it happens.

The world will be invaded
by Black Stream once again.

I'm afraid that the Nine Continents
would be a living hell.

WANFA FORMATION COLLECTION

"Wanxue Formation."

THIS FORMATION MUST BE AIDED BY
WANXUE SPIRIT PEARL TO BE EFFECTIVE

WANXUE SPIRIT PEARL NEEDS
LOTS OF BLOOD TO BE CULTIVATED

My father discovered that the Wanxue
Formation can seal the Black Stream again,

so he started to form a long plan.

For this,

he made my uncle, Lord Dilun, leave.

And even killed my mother

and all of his other wives,

as well as all my brothers and sisters.

Isn't your father too ruthless?

Even if it's in the name of righteousness,

isn't there another way?

There is,

but it's even crueler.

Kill the citizens?

After all his family members are killed,

he has no other choice.

Then why did you establish the evil cult

and let the saintesses collect blood?

Around four years ago,

I started killing citizens to collect
blood under my father's instructions.

Along the way,

I met the dark-skinned elder
of Lingjian Sect,

which is my master, Ao Guanhai.

He stopped everything

and even reported it
to the Wanxian Alliance.

The entire world of cultivation
started investigating this.

With no other choice,

my father can only stop killing citizens

and chose to trick citizens
to offer blood voluntarily.

I get it now.

So Liuli Xian is your second personality.

When Seventh Elder found you,

he thought you were a victim,
brought you to Lingjian Sect

and took you as his disciple.

Am I right?

Yes.

But the progress of
collecting blood through offering

is not as fast as killing people.

The Wanxue Formation
was delayed until now.

In the past four years,

I've been living in Lingjian Sect.

Actually, my father
has always known about this.

It's just that he saw I was happy
so he didn't mind.

Until some time ago
when he performed divination,

he discovered that
the blood moon is coming.

He'll finally have a chance to fulfill
his plan for ten years.

That's why he sent someone
to bring me back.

No wonder those female assassins

attacked Wang Family Village.

By the way,

there's something else I don't understand.

Your father has so many children.

Why are you the only one left?

Because I'm like you.

I'm also the chosen one.

You have a rare Void Spiritual Root.

And I

have the purest bloodline.

I am the most suitable to be a sacrifice.

A sacrifice?

We collected so much blood

to complete this formation.

The goal is to sacrifice me

to repair the Qingmu Seal.

We've discovered

that this is the only way
to repair the Qingmu Seal.

No.

There must be another way.

It's no use.

This is like an exchange in chess.

Both sides let each other
take one of their pieces

to attain some sort of balance.

Aside from this, there's no other way.

I don't believe that.

This isn't good. My father is in danger.

Cult Leader.

Cult Leader.

What's the matter?

Your eyes.

Cult...

Cult Leader.
