Bubbles of blood constantly welled up from within the blood pool, giving off a faintly rotten smell, an odor that had lingered for an unknown period of time, hinting at inevitable decay.
In the center of the blood pool, the arrival of Ao Kui didn't capture the elder's attention, who was still immersed in the blood pool, continually absorbing the essence of the plasma. As the essence seeped into the elder's body like individual threads, the blood pool became as clear as a mirror.
Whoosh!
Finally, the zombie-like elder moved. His gaunt frame started to terrifyingly plump itself out, his sparse white hair turned jet black, glistening, and the decay emanating from him disappeared.
Standing upright in the middle of the blood pool, the benevolent looking elder gradually rose, coming face-to-face with Ao Kui. His vast blood Qi mixed with a slight hint of evil, causing Ao Kui to stumble on his breath.
