Son-in-law Heaven Emperor Xiao Yi-Chapter 1481 - 1456: The Blood Moon Rises

Chapter 1481 -1456: The Blood Moon Rises

With a thunderous crash. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

A blood-red hand descended from the sky like a red sun, slamming fiercely onto the Xiaoshanhe Institute.

The Formation of the Xiaoshanhe Institute exploded layer by layer.

Blinding beams of light surged into the sky, shrouding this stretch of the firmament.

However…

In the face of this blood-colored hand, these Formations couldn’t hold back in the slightest.

The sound of explosions echoed continuously.

These Formations turned to flying ash, disappearing between heaven and earth.

Tens of thousands of powerhouses in the vast Xiaoshanhe Institute instantly became souls under the palm!

Surging life force scattered in all directions.

The Xiaoshanhe Institute had gathered numerous powerhouses, and the life force emitted from their demise was incredibly abundant, something the Master of the Sun and Moon Palace certainly wouldn’t allow to go to waste.

The two of them simultaneously thought of the same thing.

Together, they stood.

Throughout the Southern Continent, columns of light erupted from the Ten Thousand Spirits Blood Sacrifice Altar, crimson beams like towering pillars rising between heaven and earth.

Each beam of light was dazzlingly red, unbearably bright.

They seemed crafted from pure Ruby.

Yet the energy within these beams was exceedingly malevolent; ten beams converged at the cloud-tops of the sky. They intertwined, merged, forming a blood-red moon.

This blood moon was lifelike, resembling a true moon, only it had turned a blood-red color.

The blood-red and sinister glow obscured the light of the sun and moon.

The entire Southern Continent was enveloped in this blood-red moonlight.

On the Southern Continent.

Beings touched by the blood-red moonlight, whether human, beast, or plant, became extraordinarily bizarre.

Humans and beasts both had blood-red eyes.

Their pupils turned a vivid red.

As if reflecting the blood moon in the sky.

There was no other color.

Each human with open arms, looking up at the sky with the desire to fly towards the blood moon; while those beasts emerged from their lairs.

Crouching on the ground, as if in reverence to the gods.

Their eyes were also blood-red.

As for the plants and trees…

Under the blood-red moonlight, they withered at an eye-visible pace.

As the blood-red glow from the moonlight grew denser, like blood, the skin of humans and beasts began to dry and crack.

Their forms became hunched.

Baby-smooth skin turned like old tree bark in an instant.

Strong beasts under the blood-red moonlight became hunchbacked and emaciated.

Plants withered.

The entire Southern Continent fell into a state of life despair; with every moment under the blood-red moonlight, countless lives met their end.

The elderly and frail were the first to have their life force drained.

Transformed into dried corpses, scattered across the land.

The young and strong held out a little longer, but most, meant to be in the prime of life, now had white hair and gaunt faces, on the brink of death at any moment.

The Southern Continent had become a living hell.

Life was being harvested continually.

As this life energy was drained, the blood moon in the void grew brighter, emanating a mesmerizing blood-red glow.

Endless life force gathered in that blood-red moon.

Above the Xiaoshanhe Institute.

The Master of the Sun and Moon Palace wore a face of excitement and satisfaction; to them, the beings of the Qingtian Realm were like ants, to be slaughtered and sacrificed freely, sparing not a shred of guilt.

In their view…

The lives from the Qingtian Realm, to die at their hands, was a gift.

The Red Sun Palace Master said, “The beings of the Southern Continent are enough to restore you and me to our former peak!”

“Their life force can become a part of us, which is their honor!” smiled the Master Mingyue.

Beside them, Yue Yi and the others smiled broadly.

Not finding any issue with their words.

Elder Tian’s corner of the eyes twitched fiercely; he knew once the Ten Thousand Spirits Blood Sacrifice Altar was activated, the beings of the entire Southern Continent would become sacrificial offerings.

But as he witnessed those vibrant lives getting drained to death, his emotions became complex; unlike the Master of the Sun and Moon Palace and others, he was born and raised in the Qingtian Realm!

“Tongtian, does this soften your heart?” mocked the Red Sun Palace Master.

Elder Tian’s face altered slightly, fearing his hints of compassion might alter the Palace Masters’ impression of him, he hastily shook his head, saying, “The two Palace Masters jest; I’ve long been in the Hall of Longevity, completely unrelated to these inferior lowly beings of the Qingtian Realm, why would I be unwilling?”

“Hahaha, you’re right, the beings of the Qingtian Realm are a vile group of lowly creatures, their lives like ants’ lives. If I want them dead, they die; if I let them live, they live…” the Red Sun Palace Master declared domineeringly.

The Master Mingyue nodded slightly, but didn’t forget to comfort Elder Tian: “Rest assured, being with us in the Hall of Longevity is the best decision of your life!”

“Thank you, Palace Masters, for your kind guidance!”

Elder Tian quickly expressed his gratitude.

As he appeared hesitant, seemingly having something to say, the Master Mingyue said: “Tongtian, you are one of us in the Hall of Longevity; we are in the same boat. What’s troubling you?”

“This…”

After hesitating for a moment, Elder Tian voiced his concern, “Three seniors, Zhao Wudi from the Mysterious Realm hasn’t shown up yet, and I’m worried he…”

“Hahaha, so that’s why you are worried about Zhao Wudi!”

“Rest assured, he won’t intervene…”

The Red Sun Palace Master and the Master Mingyue exchanged a look, seeing disdain and ridicule in each other’s eyes, and the Master Mingyue continued, “Zhao Wudi has already stated he won’t take any action before we return to our peak state!”

Hiss!

Elder Tian took in a cold breath.

He was at a loss on how to judge Zhao Wudi.

Arrogant?

Yet indeed, he had the capability and strength.

Foolish?

To reach such a realm, how could there be fools?

The Red Sun Palace Master’s consciousness swept across, enveloping the entire Southern Continent, nodding in satisfaction: “Tongtian, your setup of the Ten Thousand Spirits Blood Sacrifice Altar is quite excellent, having absorbed a third of the Southern Continent’s life force; in an hour, it should reach over half. Then, you and I can enter the blood moon to refine that life force and restore our strength!”

“Once we regain our peak power, it’s time to destroy the Mysterious Realm and reclaim the Qingtian Realm!” The Master Mingyue said through gritted teeth.

For tens of thousands of years, having been sealed in the ancient well had bottled them up.

Now, they are like a tiger out of its cage.

Ready to do whatever they desire!

However…

As everyone was reveling in joy, a cold voice suddenly echoed above the Southern Continent: “Have you asked me before murdering recklessly in my Southern Continent?”
