At night, the moon and stars are scarce.

The rich and exciting bloody atmosphere enveloped the entire Niujia Village.

On this night, there were no insects and birds chirping, dogs barking and cows mooing, and it was quiet and terrible. There was no candlelight from the past day, only the cold moonlight.

A brick and stone courtyard in the center of the village is the ancestral hall of Niujia Village, and it is also the place where the smell of blood is the heaviest.

In the courtyard, there was a large number of people lying down, all of whom were villagers of Niujia Village.

Under the moonlight, it can be seen that their faces are horribly pale, and their chests are slightly undulating, all of them are dying.

Where each person was lying, there was a small stain of blood, staining the dull yellow ground a dark color.

The hall was lit with fire, and in the center was a large vat filled with red blood.

A person lives in it, only one head is exposed, and his appearance is that of a wooden boy.

As for the figure behind the vat, it is Zhou Zheng.

I saw Zhou Zheng standing upright and with a solemn face, standing behind the vat, his hands were constantly changing, and under the effect of mana, he played one after another black spells and drilled into the vat one by one.

In less than a moment, the blood in the entire large water tank began to boil, and the bloody breath was in full bloom.

Among them, the young man began to have countless blood lines on his face, and then condensed into a faint blood-colored rune, which flashed and looked extremely demonic.

As time passed, the blood in the vat slowly decreased, and the blood-colored runes on the face of the young man became clearer and clearer, and the blood light emitted became more and more abundant...... At the same time, Zhou Zheng's consumption is getting bigger and bigger, and the mana in his body is getting less and less......

Rao is like this, and he didn't see Zhou Zheng's move to stop, it seems that everything is under control.

When the mana in his body was only about 10%, Zhou Zheng stopped. Wiping the sweat from his forehead, a trace of exhaustion flashed on his face.

"It's finally done, but the consumption of mana is a little more than I expected, or because of the aura of this world."

Rao is an experienced man, and he almost miscalculated. If you don't finish running out of mana, you'll be in vain.

However, it was a success.

His eyes were shining, staring at the wooden boy in the tank, and his heart was quite satisfied.

The blood that was originally filled with the vat was missing at this time. The young man sitting in it, the blood-colored runes on his face were bright red, and his chest condensed into the image of a one-horned and hideous demon.

It's just that this demon is a little dim at the moment.

"The Blood Demon Mark is one percent, which means that the Blood Demon Puppet has been successfully cultivated in the first place. Next, you only need to suck a large amount of fresh human blood to make the Blood Demon Mark clearer and clearer, and the strength of the Blood Demon Golem will quickly become stronger. When the time comes, no matter what kind of martial arts master he is, he will die tragically on the spot when he encounters a bloody demon puppet. Zhou Zheng muttered to himself and let out a sneer.

The Blood Demon Golem will rapidly increase in strength as it sucks a large amount of blood. It is not difficult to kill the enemy in the air.

It also contains the power of blood demons, a power that even immortal cultivators are afraid of. If ordinary people get a little touched, they will instantly turn into blood and die, and those martial arts masters are naturally no exception.

Zhou Zheng's mind moved, the young man opened his eyes, his hands were propped up left and right, and the thick vat was instantly shattered, and he turned over and landed sensitively, standing in front of him.

"From now on, I'll call you a blood slave."

……

For several days, Zhou Zheng took the blood slave north.

Along the way, whenever they encountered some villages and towns, they were all slaughtered, allowing the blood slaves to suck a large amount of human blood. And he himself is also trying his best to recover the mana consumed in his body.

Compared with the rapid increase in the strength of the blood slave, his mana has only recovered completely, not to mention the improvement of cultivation.

He thought that if there was no panacea, if he wanted to improve his cultivation in this world, it would take at least a few years of hard work.

This is only the ascension from the tenth to eleventh layers of the Qi Refining Period.

Want to build a foundation? In this world is basically hopeless.

However, although the cultivation realm has not improved, his overall strength has improved a lot.

As a big devil with more than 500 years of memory, not only did he know a lot of high-level monks' exercises and methods, but he also knew a lot about the various methods of low-level monks, after all, he had stayed for a long time in the Qi refining period and foundation building period, and many things were still fresh in his memory.

For the aura problem in this world, it is destined that mana is a powerful means for him, and at the same time, it is also a fatal shortcoming, which can only be used as a killer weapon at present.

So in general, other means are needed.

Zhou Zheng did not have the internal strength to cultivate the martial arts masters of this world, and this kind of power had a certain conflict with the mana of the immortal cultivators, and the effect was too slow to be within his consideration.

He chose the means of cultivating the physical body, that is, the body refining exercises in the immortal cultivation world. There are also some martial arts that can be performed with physical strength.

These means ensured that he could cope with the various situations of the mundane world.

One of the body refining exercises he is cultivating now is the Vajra Technique. In the Righteous Path Demon Path, many monks who have just entered the path of body refining will choose this vajra technique.

It is rumored that this body refining exercise was born in ancient times, and it is compatible with many top-level exercises of the two realms of righteousness and demons, and has been improved by countless immortal cultivators.

Moreover, the resources required for cultivation can also be replaced in the mundane world, but the effect is much weaker.

There are a total of seven layers of Vajra Jue, and the first two layers are for Zhou Zheng, and he can successfully cultivate without the assistance of resources, and it only takes some time.

After more than ten days of hard work, he successfully broke through the second layer, and his body's strength, physical strength, defense, and speed increased by more than twice as much as before he had never cultivated.

The first layer is doubled, and the second layer is doubled......

And so on, and the ability to break through each layer after that will be doubled as the previous one.

Therefore, not to mention cultivating to the seventh layer, even the fifth layer is enough for him to not be afraid of any danger in this world.

……

Yuyang Town.

The tributaries of the Nu River pass through here from north to south, with open terrain, developed river transportation, and numerous wharves, which is an important trading town in the middle of the Chu Dynasty.

Therefore, Yuyang Town has a population several times larger than that of an ordinary town, and its prosperity is also among the highest in the Chu Dynasty.

Yuelai Inn, an inconspicuous corner on the first floor.

Zhou Zheng feasted on a table full of delicacies, filling his hunger. The Blood Slave sat quietly, his head bowed motionless, indifferent to the table full of food.

Zhou Zhengke ignored him, this guy only needs blood.

Their behavior did not attract the attention of the people around them at all.

After all, the business of the inn is too hot, full of seats, people from all over the world settle here, talking, laughing one after another, clinking glasses and bowls, slapping tables and stools, so lively.

Wipe out the entire table of delicacies, Zhou Zheng can be full, this is also the reason for cultivating the body refining method, you need to consume a lot of food to supplement the consumption of physical cultivation, after all, without the assistance of the elixir, you can only use this method to solve the urgent need.

"Did you hear that recently, several villages were slaughtered overnight, and the corpses were piled up together, I don't know which inhumane guy did it."

"Fart! I've heard about that, too. The blood of those dead villagers was sucked dry, where did people do it, it was clearly the work of monsters. ”

"You know bragging, where are there any monsters in this world, you know alarmism. I think eighty percent of them are just people doing something unsightly in order to hide people's eyes and ears. ”

Zhou Zheng, who was about to leave, heard these words coming from the mouths of the people at the next table.

"Paper can't hold the fire, and the villages that were slaughtered seem to have been discovered. But after so many days, it doesn't matter. ”

Zhou Zheng smiled faintly, took out a silver ingot and put it on the table, and left the inn with the blood slave.
