We Agreed to Set Sail, but You Became the Ruler of the Deep Sea?

[The submersible is over! 】

In the captain's cabin, as soon as Xia En opened his eyes, he saw the familiar ceiling.

"The way of death this time is really disgusting."

Recalling the feeling of being wrapped in thick mud, Shane couldn't help but get goosebumps all over his body.

Fortunately, during several dives, he had developed extremely strong nerves, and he calmed down after just taking a few deep breaths.

"Let me see if this drop of blood is worth the price I paid."

The spoils of this submersible voyage are simple and clear, there is only one thing——

[Blood of the Crimson Ancient Tree]

[Type: Material]

[Quality: precious]

[Description: Blood full of the secret power of blood and the power of the secret sea. 】

[It also contains a large amount of dirty impurities, and direct absorption will cause serious pollution. 】

[Perhaps...the secret power can be realized in a special way? 】

"……Um?"

Xia En frowned slightly: "Can't it be absorbed directly?"

Think about it carefully.

Generally, the blood of Vampires contains a large number of negative emotions from those who have been sucked.

Invisible pollution has long been flowing deep in their blood.

Not to mention, this [Crimson Ancient Tree] has lived for who knows how many years and has digested many corpses.

If you rashly absorb this drop of blood, you might become a madman.

"But what does it mean to feel something in a special way?"

Shane touched his chin and complained secretly: "Why is the Riddler even starting to appear on the panel?"

He lowered his head and carefully observed the blood on his palm.

This drop of ancient tree blood is very viscous, almost like a crystal when it doesn't move.

Just by taking a closer look, you can see what's special about it.

Wisps of black matter surged within it, as well as some faint, fleeting starlight.

"The black ones should be the so-called impurities, and the starlight... seems to be the form of the power of the secret sea?"

Xia En thought to himself, and suddenly realized something in his mind.

"Although [Crimson Ancient Tree] is a plant, its body fluid is also called blood by [Eye of the Secret Sea]."

"Then, the talent [Blood Power] might be able to take effect on him!"

Xia En has always been vigorous and resolute in doing things, and he will try it whenever he thinks of it.

As he activated the [Power of Blood], his consciousness came into contact with this drop of blood.

boom!

In an instant, a thunderous noise sounded in Xia En's mind.

The scene in front of him suddenly changed.

The surrounding area turned into a dense forest, and the feet were solid and warm soil.

The gaze rises upward, and the bright sunshine shines down, making it seem pleasant and comfortable.

"This is?!"

Xia En was shocked and confused. He found that he had lost the feeling of his hands and feet, replaced by branches, leaves, and roots buried in the ground...

"...I became [Crimson Ancient Tree]?!"

Before Xia En could figure out the situation, several handsome men and women with pale faces and strange temperaments came under him.

The faces of these men and women were filled with joy, cheering, or being moved to tears.

Some even knelt down on the ground and recited something devoutly.

But seeing this scene, He was not happy at this moment. Instead, he was a little confused and unhappy.

And soon, something even more unpleasant happened to Him.

The strangers began taking some of the captives to the tree, slitting their throats and watering the ground at His feet with their blood.

He was forced to drink blood, and some dirty impurities were mixed into his body.

He felt uncomfortable but couldn't refuse.

Time passed quickly, people sent more and more sacrifices, and more and more impurities accumulated in His body.

The surrounding trees were cut down and a city was built here.

More and more people came to worship Him every day, but He only felt bored, bored and unwilling.

Until one day the master of the city came to Him.

"O Holy Tree, I am willing to use the civilians of this city as sacrifices and sink this place into the [Secret Sea]."

He didn't respond, just stared at him coldly.

The man smiled: "Your wishes don't matter. You can no longer disobey me."

"In the name of Scarlet, I command you to fulfill my wish!"

His heart roared with rage.

Emotions of resentment and hatred burst out.

But to no avail.

The power from deep within the blood controlled his body.

He was forced to accept the sacrifice and took the entire city into the [Secret Sea].

After that, He never saw the sun again.

He just absorbed the dirty corpses day after day, letting his consciousness fall into the abyss step by step.

…

…

"Huha...huha..."

Xia En suddenly woke up, breathing hard, and a layer of cold sweat broke out on his back.

The hallucination just now was so real that he almost thought he was the real [Crimson Ancient Tree].

The anger, resentment and depravity seemed to still remain in his heart.

"That was... the memory of [Crimson Ancient Tree] just now?"

After calming down, Xia En was surprised.

He originally thought that [Crimson Ancient Tree] was the accomplice of the vampires, but now it seems that he is also a victim?

"In that case, is there any possibility of communicating with Him?"

Xia En thought for a moment and felt that it was feasible.

However, what concerned him more was the new information that appeared on the panel.

[You have come into contact with a small amount of the power of the mysterious sea from the "Blood of the Crimson Ancient Tree"! 】

[Your perception of the secret sea has increased! 】

When he saw these two lines of text, Xia En's eyes suddenly lit up and his heart pounded.

"It actually works!"

"Maybe... I can really get in touch with the second-level promotion ritual in this way!"

After all, one of Xia En's main purposes in exploring the [Blood Moon Secret Realm] is to obtain the magic potion that can advance to the second level.

Now, although the magic potion was not found, another opportunity for promotion was found.

"It really has come full circle."

Xia En sighed in his heart and looked forward to exploring the other side of the "Blood Moon Secret Realm".

…

…

Several days followed.

Xia En is using various methods to try to conquer the "hidden copy" in this [Blood Moon Secret Realm].

Sometimes he attempts to communicate with the [Crimson Ancient Tree], and sometimes he controls the [Power of Blood] to directly sense the blood in its body.

Sometimes I climb to the heights of the roots of ancient trees, wanting to have close contact with the [Secret Sea]...

Some of these methods have taken effect, and some have not.

But Xia En clearly felt that he was getting closer and closer to the promotion ritual, and he even occasionally heard vague calls in his ears.

at the same time.

The survivors in the [Blood Moon Secret Realm] are in a very difficult situation.

In fact, the overall strength of the [Blood Hunter Guild] is far inferior to that of the Vampire Clan.

The reason why it was barely able to support itself before was all thanks to the help of [Shadow of the Faceless] to share the attention of many vampires.

At the moment, [Shadow of the Faceless] was nowhere to be seen, and the [Blood Hunting Guild] quickly suffered a large number of casualties.

At this moment, in a hidden house.

Several leaders of the [Blood Hunting Society] are gathering here.

"So, are the reinforcements from the Federation you say true or false?"

A man with purple hair and a grumpy personality looked at the black-haired boy not far away and said in a rather unkind tone.

"Damn it, if you wait any longer, all my brothers will be dead!"

The man is none other than the captain of the [Thunder], Loren "Thunder Tooth"!

But compared with more than twenty days ago, he was now covered in injuries, with several circles of bandages wrapped around his arms, his breath was listless, and he looked miserable.

However, being able to survive in the [Blood Moon Secret Realm] for so many days is enough to show that Loren is strong.

"quiet!"

On the other side, Alyssa, the captain of the Siren, gave Loren a cold look, making him immediately cower.

Loren knew that he really couldn't afford to mess with this bitch!

The pirates at sea only heard the rumors that Loren pursued Alyssa, but they never knew that after the pursuit failed, he was severely punished by the Queen "Ye Ji" stepping on her soles!

So much so that it left an indelible psychological shadow on him.

After Alyssa easily suppressed Loren, she couldn't help but look at the black-haired boy on the main seat.

"Mr. Feiya, although Loren's attitude is a bit impatient, his question is also what I want to ask."

"Whether it's true or not, I hope you can tell the truth."

"Will the Federation... really take action?"

Not only Alyssa and Loren, but also the other survivors present looked at Feiya, hoping to get definite news from him.

In fact, after being hunted by the vampires one after another in the past few days and suffering heavy casualties, the reason why the [Blood Hunting Association] has not fallen apart is because of the promise Feiya made.

If the federation takes action, things may turn around.

If the so-called "reinforcements" were lies from the beginning, I am afraid that a large number of people will completely lose their will to fight.

Looking at everyone's eyes, Fei Ya sighed and said extremely seriously.

"In this case, I won't hide it from you anymore."

"Tonight is the time to fight back!"

Thanks to "Ye Xiangling" for the 3,000 coin reward! Thank you so much!

I feel a little headache today, I'm not in a good condition, I haven't updated a bit!
