Comparable to the top-tier Immortal Heavenly Venerables, in the entire Qinghua state, there were only three Immortal Heavenly Venerables with such strength.
They were the Emperor Da Yue, the Myriad Thunder Sect Master, and the Tianwu Clan Master!
And these three individuals could not afford to leave.
Da Yue Country was in danger!
Realizing this, among the strong of Qi Yun County, there were more defectors, one after another True King Heavenly Venerable, who pledged allegiance to Xuezhi Tuo.
There were even more True King Heavenly Venerables who died in battle.
Every True King Heavenly Venerable who joined the fold would, under the use of the Netherworld Artifact by Xuezhi Tuo, and granted the breath of the Netherworld Blood, turn into a Netherworld Blood Disciple.
After their defection, the very first thing they had to do was to blood sacrifice Qi Yun County, collecting more essence blood for Xuezhi Tuo!
