MTL NOVEL Chapter 356: 306
Yu Xuetong returned to the embassy and found that the ambassador, the Martial Officer, and others were all waiting there.
"The Blood Transmutation Divine Saber, is it real?"
"How did you feel about that strike?"
"What kind of person is Cao Xiao Jun?"
A series of questions were asked, since the Immortal Sect had an enduring and profound memory of such techniques as the Blood Transmutation Divine Saber!
It was a saber technique that grew stronger in battle, a martial art that defied all logic, a method designed specifically for the battlefield, a miracle in dire situations... if the miracle happened to the enemy!
Eight thousand years ago, the Immortal Sect conquered Ceres, and victory seemed within reach. They even killed a True God Transforming Master of the Blood God Sect, destroyed his Blood Transmutation Divine Saber, and the shattered Blood Blades fell like blood rain from the sky, scattering across the world. Who could have imagined that although a man died and his saber broken, the spirit of the Blood Transmutation Divine Saber would live on!
A Qi Cultivator inherited the essence of this saber technique and, with this technique alone, he surged through the ranks, slaying enemies as if they were nothing. From Qi Cultivation, to Foundation Establishment, to Golden Core, he rose through power—not just him, but indeed thousands of cultivators inherited this technique. He was the most outstanding among them and later, along with other warriors, led each major battle at the forefront, growing ever stronger, even slaying Nascent Souls of the Immortal Sect and forming the notorious Blood Knife Legion!

Five thousand years ago, the brothers of Mirror Twelve formed the Seven-Star Linked Seven Slaughter Formation, facing the elite Blood Knife Legion of the Blood God Sect with seven Grade Five Treasure Mirrors, battling against three hundred thousand cultivators of the Blood God Sect.
Metal, Wood, Water, Earth, Illusion, Poison, Darkness—seven Grade Fives, each employing myriad tactics and constantly changing Formations to create countless Minor Worlds. Yet, the Blood God Sect's Cultivator Legion, with the supreme Blood Transmutation Divine Saber, broke through all defenses with a single strike!
Unlike the detestable Blood Demon Sect of the Old Immortal Gate, the Blood God Sect promoted with its upright and majestic goals. How could an organization grow from despicable means like deceit, breaking family ties, and killing its own people?
There are three thousand Heavenly Daos, and among them the Way of Blood states that blood represents the essence of a person!
Before the Blood God Sect, evil gods and demons roamed the universe, oppressing the living and toying with the souls of the dead. Thus, humanity, unwilling to submit and with a fiery spirit in their bones, began a relentless war!
There was no trickery, no betrayal; within the Blood God Sect it was all about fighting spirit. The difference between humans, animals, beasts, and all creatures is whether they possess that fighting spirit!
A vigor that pierces through the sun and the moon, and a blood vitality that never fades!
The Blood God, the soul of blood, and the spirit of the gods!
On the battlefield, the Blood God Sect's legions were reaped like chaff, and the Blood Knife Legion suffered heavy casualties, but the Blood Transmutation Divine Sabers continued to grow in power. This was their spirit; this was their war intent. As cultivators fell in battle, successors took up their cause, and the sabers became more formidable until at last, a Blood Transmutation Divine Saber that reached the heavens summoned the true form of the Blood God, cleaving through the Immortal Sect's seven Treasure Mirrors, securing the ultimate victory in that battle.
This was the Blood Transmutation Divine Saber, capable of not only absorbing the enemy's essence blood but also accumulating the souls of its own fallen warriors, transmuting blood into divinity, destroying all things.
This battle caused the Immortal Sect to abandon any thoughts of annihilating the Blood God Sect, and the legendary Blood Knife Legion also disappeared from history.
Thereafter... the Blood Transmutation Divine Saber gradually became a legend, with only corrupted iterations circulating publicly, tarnished by the nefarious and falsely branded by the propaganda organs of the Immortal Sect as vile, even suppressed quietly within the Blood God Sect itself!
"Indeed, the Blood Transmutation Divine Saber!"
Yu Xuetong gave a wry smile and gestured for his attendants to come over.
It was then that one person's forehead suddenly split open with a new wound, not a serious one, a minor injury. But while such a sight was indeed startling, the attendants weren't surprised at all since their wrists, backs, legs, and many parts of their bodies bore similar shallow wounds.
Cao Xiao Jun's strike was imbued with intent ahead of the blade, with the intent leading the saber. Viewing it through a Memory Stone would only reveal a streak of saber light like ribboned steel, followed by people toppling over, with perhaps more of a red mist flying towards the saber. But those who were present felt a rush of spiritual vigor and a surge of vitality, including the saber intent entering their Divine Souls, experiencing a thrilling sensation akin to downing Burning Knife Liquor.
Or perhaps the pain of being struck by the blade.
"Let me see."
The ambassador, himself a Golden Core sage of three hundred and twenty-two years, solemnly placed his palm on the wound, savoring a particular essence.
The next moment, he exhaled deeply.
"It's the genuine Blood Transmutation Divine Saber!"
For thousands of years, the Blood Transmutation Divine Saber had been maligned as some evil outsider technique. Some said that a mere scratch could wither a person's essence blood, and its saber light was so strange that it could turn millions of people into blood water. However, these claims about the Blood Transmutation Divine Saber were trivial compared to the battlefield's reality. The true Blood Transmutation Divine Saber grew stronger through battle, becoming more potent against stronger foes, following a path of righteous slaughter, where essence, qi, and spirit fused seamlessly.
"How did Mi Youjia raise such a demon star?"
The ambassador's face was quite a spectacle, as if he had eaten expired food. If Mi Youjia were in front of him, he would have strangled her then and there.
Just yesterday, he was lamenting that, in this Blood God Sect's grand competition, the Immortal Sect had no way to overpower all the other Sects—The Blood God Sect does not forbid other Sects from competing. In fact, it welcomes the geniuses of other Sects to challenge them. The geniuses from other Sects can win prizes just the same and can broadcast their victories. So the Immortal Sect harbored some hope of achieving a good ranking. Several of their young talents came with the aim of securing good places in the Qi Cultivation and Foundation Establishment categories, striving, if possible, for the top three.
