Li Qingshan could not be bothered with dealing with her. He was in enemy territory, such that it was a time to go all out and strive ahead valiantly. As for these principles of good and bad, right or wrong, he would save it for when he got out of here alive! What kind of principles mattered to a dead person?

Qian Rongzhi watched him silently before curling up again and giving up on a certain idea. She sighed inside. Tigers still are tigers at the end of the day!

Those who advanced valiantly did not necessarily understand and see through everything, but they could pick things up and let go on a whim. They possessed a staunch and fearless confidence.

She came nowhere close to him in this aspect, which was why she refused to provoke him too much. A tiger could not be provoked. If she really angered him and he swung over with his blade, he would not be listening to any of the reasoning she gave.

So be it. I’ve already done all that I can to tempt him to devour the Black Sun Demon Heart. Let’s just wait and see what fate has in store!

Li Qingshan strode ahead, constantly venturing deeper into the Blood maze. Whenever he entered a new chamber, he would encounter more forks in the path. He handled these tense situations calmly, using his techniques and abilities freely.

His mirror clones and demonic thought clones split again and again, into the hundreds and thousands, crossing through thousands of chambers.

The demonic thought clones were far too weak, unable to travel too far away from his main body. However, the mirror clones were relatively powerful, so they served as points of support, maintaining the existences of the demonic thought clones.

Like a tree, where the mirror clones served as the branches and the demonic thought clones served as the leaves, it constantly reached for the vaster and more distant sky.

Meanwhile, Li Qingshan was obviously the trunk and roots of the tree.

His eyes constantly twinkled. If they were examined under a microscope, there was a screen of light condensed over his eyes, like the compound eyes of insects, formed from countless hexagons.

Each hexagon reflected an image, corresponding to the location of each clone and everything they had encountered.

The Blood maze was like a colossal beehive, while Jiuying was the queen bee hidden within.

As such, Li Qingshan took a similar form to deal with this. At the same time, he constantly analysed and calculated the structure of the beehive, searching for any way out that existed.

The demonic thought clones multiplied and became weaker. They had to hide their tracks as well, just in case they were discovered, so they moved extremely slowly. Even a regular person could walk much faster than them, but there was a colossal number of them.

As time went on, he passed through more and more chambers and gradually gained some knowledge and experience.

After almost a month, Li Qingshan stopped and exhaled gently. He smiled.

“What Blood maze? I think there’s nothing impressive about it!”

He had already calculated the entire structure of the Blood maze, as well as the exits that led to the twelve dominions. He even had a rough estimate for the central region where Jiuying occupied. During the past few days, he had always been concentrating on avoiding it.

The only issue now was distinguishing them. Just which of the twelve exits led to Qiongqi’s dominion?

Yeah, I can eliminate one, so that’s eleven. If there’s no other way, I’ll have to try them one by one!

He could dismiss all of his clones now. With the speed at which his main body could move at, it would not take long at all.

But at this exact moment, the Blood maze violently wriggled. The surging rivers of blood washed through countless chambers. The demonfolk seemed to have learned of this a long time ago, having moved over to the safe chambers. Many of his clones failed to retreat in time, swallowed by the raging rivers of blood.

Li Qingshan was not surprised. He knew the time for the Gates of Xuanpin to open had arrived again.

It was not like he needed to carefully wait for the Gate of Xuanpin to leave anymore. He could just slash his way out of here. As long as he left the Blood maze, even Jiuying would be powerless over him.

Suddenly, the Blood maze began to wriggle violently. All of the spaces shook. The demonfolk in the chambers were thrown around. If the surroundings was not soft flesh, but hard rock, they probably would have all been left bloodied.

What’s going on? Li Qingshan’s expression suddenly changed drastically. He lost contact over all of his clones at the same time. Don’t tell me I’ve been exposed?

He immediately gripped the hilt of his sword, preparing for battle, but after waiting for a while, there were no enemies.

The violent shaking gradually settled down. Li Qingshan let go of the sword, opened his divine eye, and glanced around, which immediately left him shocked. He discovered that even the laws of the world had changed.

Of course, they had not changed in nature, but their layout was completely different.

Li Qingshan furrowed his brows. He felt like he was trying to solve a 17×17 rubik’s cube, and after coming close to solving it, someone had stolen it from him and messed it up again. He was immediately overcome with an urge to kill someone.

What was he supposed to do now? Was he supposed to do it all again?

However, the Blood maze right now was no longer the same one as before, but a completely new maze. Even his location had probably changed, let alone the twelve exits.

He needed to split up, explore the paths, analyse and deduce everything again before choosing between the eleven, no, twelve exits before the next time it all changed.

His chances of success each time was only one in twelve. If he were lucky, then he could succeed within twelve tries. It would take twelve months in total or an entire year.

However, his luck right now was horrendous. Even a decade might not be enough for him to leave here. He might even be trapped here forever.

In this Blood maze, Jiuying’s will influenced everything.

“Looks like we’re trapped here.” Li Qingshan raised his eyebrows.

“I’m thinking that this might not be for trapping you,” Qian Rongzhi said in thought.

“Oh? Don’t tell me there are others?”

“I don’t know. What are you going to do now?”

“‘Ask’ them to give me a way out!”

Li Qingshan sucked in a deep breath and let out a bellow.

It was like a tiger’s roar, a dragon’s cry! Soundwaves swept out, making the surrounding flesh fluctuate. It spread through all the chambers with lightning speed.

At that instant, a powerful will gathered on him, forming an almost-tangible pressure.

It was Jiuying!

Li Qingshan arched his back slightly and squinted his eyes, which turned scarlet.

“And if they don’t give you a way out?” Qian Rongzhi asked with a smile.

“Then I’ll kill a way out,” Li Qingshan said flatly.

“I also have a small request. Can you let me talk first later?”

“What scheme are you up to now?”

“I’m just testing something. If you die, how am I supposed to live alone?”

“Alright.”

Li Qingshan remained exactly where he was, but soon afterwards, nine extraordinarily powerful presences rapidly approached him, rushing into the chamber where he was in instantly.

.

The nine Heretic Gods!

Li Qingshan widened his eyes, but all he saw were nine children. They all wore a red dudou with their hair tied up in upright bunches, waddling around with their small, bare feet. Their eyes were dark and their skin was fair and soft. They did not seem hideous or terrifying at all. Instead, they were particularly delicate and adorable.

However, the presences they gave off clearly belonged to nine Heretic Gods. Every single one of them was stronger than Heretic God Baitun.

His heart sank. The nine Heretic Gods definitely were not as simple as nine Heretic Gods working together. Instead, their bloodlines were connected, and they were mentally linked, pouring their powers to form a single entity, sealing off all of his paths of retreat. Even before they had done anything, the pressure already weighed on him like a mountain.

Nine was a number of limits, containing endless changes and possibilities. When it came to battle, not even twenty Heretic Gods working together could necessarily defeat them.

It was no wonder that Jiuying could contend with the twelve Demon Gods. With the Blood maze coupled with the nine Heretic God children, she could even challenge true gods.

“Who are you? You’re looking to die in the Blood maze?” The nine Heretic Gods spoke at exactly the same time, questioning with babyish voices.

Li Qingshan was just about to answer them, “asking” them to give him a way out, just in case he had to butcher them all, when he remembered Qian Rongzhi’s request, so he listened to what she had to say.

Qian Rongzhi slithered down from Li Qingshan’s wrist and turned back into human form, turning into a large, plump woman.

“We’re here to kill Jiuying!”

Before she had even finished what she was saying, she felt a chill run down her spine. A pair of scarlet eyes watched her coldly. As soon as she said that, there was no more room left for negotiation. Someone had to die.

“Just by you two!?” The nine Heretic Gods laughed as their murderousness surged.

Qin Rongzhi suddenly opened her mouth and fished out a pig’s head from inside, holding it in her hand and displaying it to the nine Heretic Gods.

The nine Heretic Gods immediately stopped laughing. They could tell this was a Heretic God’s head.

“Mother is not a pig.”

“Because your powers originate from her, you’re unable to resist her, which is why you think she is far too powerful. In reality, Jiuying is just a Heretic God too. Just how much more powerful than this pig can she be?”

The nine Heretic Gods looked at one another as if they wavered slightly.

Qian Rongzhi shoved the pig’s head back into her mouth and smiled. “Why don’t you let us try? There are no consequences on you if we fail. Or are you saying that you’d rather be trapped here, stuck in this state forever?”

Li Qingshan suddenly understood what she was testing.

In this monotonous, dull world devoid of meaning, even regular people would find it repulsive and boring, let alone powerful Heretic Gods. With their powers, they could do as they pleased in any world.

The Blood maze constantly changed exactly so that it could trap the nine Heretic Gods, so these children also possessed the desire of matricide.

Despite witnessing all of the chaos and repulsion of the Demon domain, he had never grown accustomed to this kind of “wickedness”.
