The entire area was shrouded in dark blood vitality, so much so that even the sky had turned black due to the evil spirit.
And if that wasn't enough to drive ordinary warriors away, a cold corpse miasma hung like a thick curtain in the air, and what made matters worse was that this corpse miasma was also a kind of poisonous gas.
These were the dangers that awaited any warrior who would dare to venture into the Corpse Blood Devil Land.
Of course, the conditions in this place were much better compared to the Corpse Blood Devil Land inside the territory of the Devil Land.
This place continually absorbed the continent spirit from other places and transformed it into corpse miasma. At the same time, the invisible blood vitality that surrounded it gradually fused into the land.
In such a harsh environment, there were only two kinds of plants and Treasures from Heaven and Earth that could survive. The first kind consisted of poisonous and cold ones, while the second kind were the ones that could restrain poison and cold.
The mountains in this area were separated by blood-colored rivers, wide enough to be seen from a fair distance away.
After half a month of traveling, Ricky finally arrived at the Corpse Blood Devil Land and found several warriors loitering nearby. Ricky approached them warily, knowing that they shared the same goal, which was to acquire tokens for the selection process.
In fact, every warrior in the Middle Land probably wanted to join the Misty South Palace except for those who belonged to the most powerful forces and ancient clans. Even though joining the Misty South Palace would mean taking on a heavier burden on their shoulders, it didn't stop those who were thirsty for better opportunities from participating.
They were willing to sacrifice a lot to be a member of the Misty South Palace, as it would give them plenty of benefits.
First and foremost, no force would risk messing with them. Plus, they would also have better access to more sophisticated cultivation resources and cultivation methods.
As soon as Ricky was within the sight of the participating warriors, his white hair and young-looking body attracted everyone's attention. The differences in the warriors were obvious. Those who were kindhearted immediately reminded Ricky of the dangers the place held, and some even advised him to leave. Meanwhile, those who were naturally cruel and enjoyed other people's pain made fun of him, and some even attacked him.
The moment those with meaner souls tried to hurt him, Ricky paid them back tenfold. He showed them no mercy and taught them a hard lesson.
Before long, most of the warriors learned not to mess with him, and no one dared to look down on him anymore.
They also began to pay more attention to Ricky’s actions, as they tried to guess who he really was. They finally clued in that he couldn’t be a child with how powerful he was. At most, they thought that he was an adult dwarf.
As its name suggested, the Corpse Blood Devil River could only be found in the Corpse Blood Devil Land.
The waters that flowed in these rivers were contaminated with blood vitality, dark corpse miasma, evil spirit, and erosive power. In addition, some zombies even inhabited the rivers.
Two kinds of zombies subsisted in this place. Those with heavy killing aura were known as Blood Zombies, while those with strong evil spirits were called Devil Zombies.
These creatures were formed after countless years had passed.
Of course, they couldn't become real Corpse Blood Devils, as Corpse Blood Devils could only be formed in the Corpse Blood Devil tribe’s ancestral land after scores of years.
Moreover, genuine Corpse Blood Devils couldn't reproduce and must be born in their tribe’s ancestral land.
On the other hand, the members of the Linghu Clan were a mix of the Corpse Blood Devils and the human race. Thus, they could reproduce, unlike their pure-bred relatives. This interbreeding of devils and humans, however, caused the Corpse Blood Devil’s blood power in the members of the Linghu Clan to weaken through each generation as the blood grew thinner and thinner, so to speak.
That was why the Linghu Clan was the weakest among the eight influential human devil clans. Through the years, the Corpse Blood Devil's blood power remained in the members of the Linghu Clan grew weaker and weaker.
Fortunately, the members of the Linghu Clan could strengthen the Corpse Blood Devil’s blood power in their bodies through some distinctive and extreme methods.
The warriors had congregated in this place because based on the disseminated information, which Ricky had also received, the tokens were supposed to be scattered somewhere in the Corpse Blood Devil Rivers.
As soon as the warriors were ready, they set off and dived into the rivers, with Ricky following closely behind them.
The grass had absorbed the Intent Apperception in this place, which allowed it to become a Treasure from Heaven and Earth—the Intent Apperception Grass. Once a warrior refined it, their comprehension of the Intent Apperception would exponentially improve.
It could also help improve a warrior's cultivation level and strength, just like other Treasures from Heaven and Earth at the Sage Level.
Ricky, through his own talents and with the Dragon Intent Grass' help, was able to comprehend fifty percent of the saber intent power at the early stage.
This was a great feat, and comprehending fifty percent saber intent at the early stage made Ricky stand out among his peers. However, this wasn't even a drop in the bucket compared to what those top geniuses could do.
Ricky had evolved into a middle spiritual emperor and consolidated his power in the place that Paul had created.
That was actually necessary because every time he made a breakthrough, he needed to spend time consolidating his improved strength and level. That was because the higher one's cultivation level was, the more important it was to consolidate their strength and level.
Moreover, if he wanted to make any significant progress, energy and comprehension were indispensable.
Any warrior who couldn't reach a higher level would have to use other methods to improve their powers. The power from the Intent Apperception was a good choice for this situation, as it could enhance one's strength without increasing the cultivation base.
If a warrior reached fifty or sixty percent power of the Intent Apperception, it could greatly improve their combat effectiveness. It could even serve as their trump card.
'If I could level up my saber intent to fifty percent at the late stage before the selection begins, I would have another trump card!' Ricky thought jubilantly to himself.
He studied the Intent Apperception Grass with slight greed in his eyes, knowing that it could become a great asset to him.
The Intent Apperception Grass had the killing property, which could potentially be useful to him. It was because he had the Devourer Zone, which could help him refine objects or treasures with killing property.
However, before he could collect the Intent Apperception Grass, he knew that he had to take care of those Blood Zombies first.
