Divine Crow Immortal was fleeing,
burning most of his Essence Blood to escape.
This was unimaginable in the past!
With the Hei Clan's bloodline talent, his speed was unparalleled; even when he was not a match on the Great Sun Sect battlefield, he had never been so embarrassed.
Mid-stage Nascent Soul monks couldn't catch up to him, and even late-stage Nascent Soul monks could only burn one or two drops of Essence Blood to escape.
You should know that Essence Blood is not the same as ordinary blood—losing a drop or two is acceptable, since one could recover after several decades or at most a century.
But once too much is consumed, it could affect lifespan!
Especially for older cultivators with little Life Energy remaining, this was almost like burning their own Life Energy, equivalent to a slow suicide.
With every breath, years of Life Energy would be sacrificed, as inconsequential as the weeds by the roadside, utterly uncherished.
This was his instinct.
