Record of a Demon's Cultivation-Chapter 463: Blood Sea Seal
Chapter 463 - Blood Sea Seal

---
Song Wen had clearly underestimated the significance of Xing Li Ren in Xing Gaohan's heart.
The next day, at the time of the rooster (around 5 a.m.).
The sky had not yet brightened.
A female cultivator from the Xing family, at the Foundation Building stage, led a group of guards and stormed into the inn.
She instructed everyone to gather in the inn's lobby as she would conduct a search, one person at a time.
Song Wen calmly patted the storage bag at his waist and left his room with an unconcerned expression.
After the spiritual sense searched the entire city, he had already made preparations. The storage ring had been sealed in his heart, and not to mention a Foundation Building cultivator, let alone Xing Gaohan himself, would be able to detect anything wrong.
Song Wen smoothly passed the search.
The cheap inn was mostly filled with Qi Refining stage scattered cultivators, and the female cultivator found nothing suspicious.
After the female cultivator and her guards left, the other guests did not return to their rooms but instead gathered in the lobby to chat.
"Shopkeeper, what's going on? Why is the Xing family making such a big move?"
The shopkeeper, a middle-aged male cultivator, shook his head.
"Though I have some connections in Fang City, I'm just a Qi Refining stage cultivator at the eighth level, and this incident must be extremely significant. I have no right to know. However..."
The shopkeeper lowered his voice and continued.
"I received a message from a contact living outside the city. The Xing family's search targets are not inside the city but outside. Cultivators above the Foundation Building stage have nearly all been mobilized. It seems they are about to turn all of Fangzhudao upside down. I don't know what they're looking for."
"Fangzhudao has a radius of at least a hundred thousand miles, with mountains, rivers, lakes, and caves... the terrain is so complicated, there's no way the Xing family can search every inch, right?" one of the guests asked.
The shopkeeper shook his head. "I don't know about that. But in the past few days, we should all be more cautious and keep a low profile to avoid offending the Xing family."
The other guests nodded in agreement, clearly understanding the situation.
Seven days later, after the Xing family failed to find what they were looking for, they were finally forced to call off their search.
Meanwhile, the true murderer, Song Wen, had already boarded a large flying ship heading to Bixiao Island.
Bixiao Island was about three hundred thousand miles from Fangzhudao, a medium-sized island with an area of ten thousand miles, controlled by a Golden Core family.
This island was a key transit point for traveling to and from Fangzhudao, with many cultivators passing through.
Therefore, there were large merchant ships specifically for transporting cultivators between Bixiao Island and Fangzhudao.
Song Wen had to leave Fangzhudao because his methods, such as the Shadow Gu, Blood Escape Technique, and death substitutes, had already been exposed.
If he stayed on Fangzhudao, using these techniques in combat would reveal his identity and attract the Xing family's pursuit.
His destination was Wu Ji Island.
Though Wu Ji Island called itself a sect, it functioned more like a cultivator alliance.
Wu Ji Island was divided into the inner and outer sects. The inner sect consisted of core disciples, a relatively small number, while the outer sect was made up of scattered cultivators who joined Wu Ji Island midway, many in number.
These scattered cultivators were not truly loyal to Wu Ji Island; they simply relied on the powerful influence of Wu Ji Island, engaging in a mutually beneficial exchange with the sect's core members.
Moreover, Wu Ji Island practiced Corpse Dao cultivation, and Song Wen needed many Corpse Dao spiritual materials, which were easier to find on Wu Ji Island.
The journey was peaceful.

After several days of flying over the sea, the ship landed in a city.
Song Wen disembarked, took a boat, and flew northwest toward the city.
Wu Ji Island was located 8 million miles to the northwest, and with Song Wen's speed, he could reach it within a month.
After leaving Bixiao Island, the sea was dotted with small islands.
Song Wen put away the flying boat and flew at full speed.
After traveling several tens of thousands of miles, Song Wen found a deserted island and landed.
The storage ring was sealed in his heart, making him feel quite uncomfortable. He needed to find a suitable place to remove it.
This uninhabited island was relatively small, with a radius of over fifty miles. It was covered in lush greenery, making it easy to hide his tracks.
Song Wen found a cave on a cliff by the sea to use as a temporary residence.
After setting up a formation, Song Wen took out the storage ring.
He first retrieved a blood-red token, which was engraved with the word "Seal."
Song Wen's expression brightened. Based on his past experience, tokens with inscriptions were always extremely valuable.
He probed with his spiritual sense and found that this token recorded the crafting method for a life-bound magic treasure.
The life-bound magic treasure was called the Blood Sea Seal.
The crafting process for the Blood Sea Seal was extremely bloody and cruel. It required the refining of the blood of countless living beings. The more living blood that was refined, the stronger the power of the Blood Sea Seal.
Before crafting this treasure, the blood of living beings had to be refined and purified. This was a time-consuming and labor-intensive process that could not be entrusted to others.
Next, the cultivator needed to merge the purified blood with their own spiritual power to form a Blood Sea Embryo.
This step was the most critical and dangerous part of the process.
During this stage, the cultivator had to immerse their mind completely into the Blood Sea Embryo, establishing a spiritual connection with it.
The Blood Sea Embryo was formed from the blood of countless living beings, and within it, the grudges of those beings remained.
When these vengeful spirits gathered, they would create a terrifying spiritual pollution.
A slight mistake could result in a backlash from the spirits' resentment, trapping the cultivator in an inescapable abyss.
Finally, the cultivator needed to gather several rare spiritual materials and use special ritual techniques to condense the Blood Sea Seal.
Song Wen found that the first two steps, which were the most difficult, were actually the easiest for him.
He could directly consume the blood essence of others, then expel the blood essence, completing the refining process without the risk of backlash from resentment.
The blood essence he expelled would be equivalent to his own, so it would not turn against him.
The only challenge left was how to gather the required rare spiritual materials.
With a thought, Song Wen summoned a square blood brick in front of him.
The blood brick contained a massive amount of blood essence, which was perfect for refining the Blood Sea Seal.
After putting away the blood brick and the token, Song Wen began to inventory the items he had obtained from Xing Li Ren's storage ring.
Although he had already thrown away Xing Li Ren's storage ring, all the contents had been transferred to his own storage ring.
Xing Li Ren's belongings were extremely rich, including over two hundred high-grade spirit stones, a number of pills, spiritual materials, and even a few materials needed to craft the Blood Sea Seal.
Song Wen took out the Cold Light Mirror, which was Xing Li Ren's life-bound magic treasure.
A life-bound magic treasure is intimately connected with the cultivator's mind and is far more powerful than ordinary treasures, but after the cultivator's death, it is difficult for others to fully unleash its true power, even with re-forging.
Thus, the Cold Light Mirror wasn't of much use to Song Wen and could be sold at a low price.
However, Song Wen did find a defensive magic treasure among Xing Li Ren's belongings.
This treasure, shaped like an iron scroll, was called the Ten Directions Map. It was a mid-grade treasure that, when activated, could form a defensive barrier.
The shape and size of the barrier could be adjusted according to the cultivator's will.
However, the larger the barrier, the more spiritual power it consumed.
