Chapter 10
Chapter 10
Following the technique in the book, Zhang Chen manipulated his spiritual energy and a large amount of blood seeped out of his pores, forming a terrifying bloody person.
Immediately, the blood began to move and slowly solidified, forming a thin blood-red bodysuit on the surface of his body.
Zhang Chen stood up and examined the blood armor on his body.
The blood armor was covered in intricate patterns that seemed to have been created by the heavens themselves. The flow of spiritual energy could still be vaguely seen, and a red light flickered
It was grand, mysterious, eye-catching, and dazzling, as if it had just been bathed in blood.
Zhang Chen moved his limbs again and realized that he did not feel any inconvenience. He nodded in satisfaction. “I wonder how strong the defense is.”
Appearance was secondary, and the most important thing was defense.
“Dang!” Zhang Chen struck the blood armor with his hand, and it made a sound like the collision of gold and iron.
“Not bad, it was worth consuming a year of cultivation to condense this blood armor.”
Zhang Chen was quite satisfied. Even with just a thin layer of blood armor, it was comparable to iron and stone, and with a few more layers, it could resist general techniques.
According to the description of the Blood Armor Technique, this blood armor could continuously condense and thicken. Once it reached its peak, it could withstand attacks from the Foundation Establishment stage.
This Blood Armor Technique had a total of 10 levels. Just condensing one level consumed a year’s worth of cultivation blood, and more layers required even more consumption.
If he wanted to master it and condense 10 layers of blood armor, it would take at least 50 years of cultivation.
However, this wasn’t difficult for Zhang Chen, as he could easily refine demon blood and increase his cultivation level rapidly.

“Dang, dang, dang…”
Upon hearing the morning bell, Zhang Chen knew that it was dawn and time for the beast garden.
With a thought, the blood armor on his body softened and disappeared into his skin as if it had been absorbed.
After practicing techniques all night, Zhang Chen was a bit tired, so he washed his face to refresh himself..
If it was just a matter of not sleeping, it was fine for cultivators at the Qi cultivation stage like them to go for several days and nights without sleeping.
However, practicing spells also consumed one’s energy and spirit, especially the Mad Blood Demon Saber, which consumed a lot of Zhang Chen’s energy.
After passing the sect assessment, the Blood God Sect had returned to calmness, and there were clearly more disciples on the road.
As usual, Zhang Chen received the array token and blood storage bottle before heading to the cave he was assigned to.
In the beast garden, there were many others like Zhang Chen who came to collect blood. They often ran into each other, but rarely talked.
However, today, a fellow disciple greeted Zhang Chen, “Junior Brother, are you here to collect demon blood too?”
Zhang Chen looked over and realized that the other party was actually at the seventh level of Qi cultivation. However, he was still wearing outer sect clothes and was not an inner sect disciple. He should have just reached the seventh level of Qi cultivation not long ago.
Although he did not know what the other person wanted, Zhang Chen still politely responded, “Yes, Senior Brother.”
The disciple approached and asked, “My name is Lu Wenyu. How should I address you, Junior Brother?”
“Greetings, Senior Brother Lu. My name is Zhang Chen,” Zhang Chen replied, cupping his hands.
Lu Wenyu smiled and said, “Zhang junior brother, here’s the thing. I need some demon blood lately. Could you collect more than you need and sell it to me?
“As long as you don’t take too much, those demons won’t do anything. It’s a risk-free deal for you. I can buy it from you at the price of one bowl of blood essence for two buckets of demon blood.”
Zhang Chen suddenly realized why he didn’t buy from the outer sect spokespersons. It turned out that he wanted to buy two buckets of demon blood with a bowl of blood essence.
If he controlled each demon beast well and only drew a little more blood, it was indeed feasible. The risk was not high.
However, with his current cultivation speed and the demon blood provided by Li Mumin, he did not lack blood essence. There was no need to do anything unnecessary for a little blood essence.
“I’m sorry, Senior Brother Lu. I’m not interested.” Zhang Chen shook his head and declined.
Lu Wenyu did not give up and continued, “To be frank, I need the demon blood to cultivate techniques and compete for the position of inner sect disciple. If I become an inner sect disciple, you will gain my friendship.”
“Senior Brother Lu, I suggest you find someone else. I wish you success in your cultivation and becoming an inner sect disciple.” Zhang Chen bowed and left.
Lu Wenyu was a little stunned. He didn’t expect the other person to reject him so bluntly.
He had asked many people in the beast garden and had heard that most people would agree to the deal of buying demon blood at a low price.
Even if they initially disagreed, they would eventually agree when they heard he wanted to compete for the position of inner sect disciple.
After all, who wouldn’t want to gain the friendship and favors of an inner sect disciple’?
Lu Wenyu looked at Zhang Chen’s back, his expression changing.
Asking people to collect demon blood was stealing resources from the sect. Even if the sect didn’t care about such a trivial matter, it would offend those inner sect disciples who sold demon blood if the news got out.
If everyone behaved like Lu Wenyu and directly bought demon blood from the beast garden at a low price, how would the inner sect disciples who sold demon blood make a living?
Therefore, the inner sect disciples who sold demon blood would definitely suppress such behavior.
A moment later, Lu Wenyu turned around and walked down the mountain.
At the foot of the mountain, the disciple in charge of registration in the beast garden saw Lu Wenyu and greeted him warmly, “Senior Brother Lu, I heard that you’re going to compete for the position of inner sect disciple. Don’t forget me in the future.”
“Of course, of course,” Lu Wenyu replied politely. Then he revealed his purpose. “By the way, I have something to ask you.”
“As long as I know, I’ll definitely tell Senior Brother Lu,” the beast garden disciple readily agreed.
“In the beast garden’s blood collection mission, there’s a disciple at the fifth level of Qi cultivation called Zhang Chen. Do you know him?” Lu Wenyu asked.
“Junior Brother Zhang! I know him. Senior Brother Lu, what do you want to know about him?” The beast garden disciple appeared to be familiar with Zhang Chen.
“I wonder how much Junior Brother knows about him?” Lu Wenyu responded with a question.
“Don’t be fooled by his fifth-level Qi cultivation. Junior Brother Zhang is fearless!” The beast garden disciple gave a thumbs up and began to recount Zhang Chen’s deeds.
“Half a month ago, Senior Brother Li Mumin from the inner sect came to deliver a task. When the outer sect disciples saw Senior Brother Li, they were afraid of offending him. But Junior Brother Zhang actually stepped forward and recommended himself to be Senior Brother Li’s spokesperson…”
After listening to the disciple from the beast garden, Lu Wenyu felt uneasy.
No wonder he refused. This was like asking the authorities to buy smuggled salt!
He knew Li Mumin’s reputation as one of the most promising inner sect disciples to reach the Foundation Establishment realm. He could not afford to offend him.
No, I can’t buy demon blood in the beast garden anymore. I have to think of a way to remedy this!
he thought.
At this point, the beast garden disciple said, “I wonder what Senior Brother Lu wants to know about Junior Brother Zhang? I can introduce him to you.”
Lu Wenyu came back to his senses and quickly said, “Thank you, Junior Brother. There’s no need. I just met Junior Brother Zhang in the beast garden and had a good chat with him. I wanted to befriend him, but I didn’t know what Junior Brother Zhang was like, so I came to ask around.”
“Senior Brother Lu, let me tell you, Junior Brother Zhang is a good person!” The beast garden disciples started praising Zhang Chen enthusiastically.
“Yes, yes…” Wenyu’s mind was preoccupied with finding a solution and he was not really listening.
After drawing his blood and handing over the array token and blood storage bottle, Zhang Chen quickly walked towards his cave abode.
He had yet to read the Blood Burst Technique and the Blood Ignition Technique books. He had to master them as soon as possible.
