8. 8 吾 I Am the Blood Lord, and All Living Beings Are My Blood Slaves 吾为血主，众生皆为血奴 Paper Ash Official纸灰官Eastern Fantasy1.9M WordsOngoing [Slaughter] [Blood Princess] [Tentacles] [Corpse Refining] [Devouring] [No System] Fang Mo, the eldest young master of the Fang family, was the best cultivator among his peers and a widely acclaimed genius in Luoyun City, the focus of everyone’s attention. Unexpectedly, on the day the Heavenly Sword Sect came to recruit disciples, his family treated him as a pawn and discarded him. He was left gravely wounded and crippled. A few days later, news spread that Fang Mo had been poisoned to death. Th 11kReads8.5Score742Shelves

   Reader note

   The first book: At the Heavenly Sword Sect's disciple-acceptance banquet, when Fang Mo's dantian was shredded by his biological father, he still had half a sentence stuck in his throat: "Why, Father?" The family announced to the outside world that he died of poisoning on the night he was thrown into the mass grave. On the verge of death, he grabbed a pitch-black tentacle seeping from the Blood Princess's coffin—that thing crawled through his meridians along the gaps in his fingers, stitching his broken organs together to form an even more terrifying living corpse. Three years later, red snow fell in Luoyun City. The eternal lamps in the Fang family ancestral hall burst one after another. The guardian saw a waxy arm emerging from the shadows, peeling away the lamp oil. In the center of the shadows, a young man played with half a bloodstained waist token. Tentacles wrapped around his wrist suddenly split into thousands of tiny limbs, slowly carving next to his father's name on the family genealogy: "You taught me 'survival of the fittest' back then, and now your son will use your bones to forge the most ferocious corpse." Before the words were finished, a series of gnawing sounds came from the ground beneath the ancestral hall. The wronged souls he had devoured were carving a bloody path of revenge along the foundation of the Fang family. The second book: When Chu Xuan was nailed to the ruins of the Wuji Sect by righteous cultivators, black blood was seeping from his dantian—the demonic cultivators' techniques of plundering human essence were more poisonous than patricide in the eyes of the human race's Heavenly Dao. On the verge of death, he shattered his ancestral blood mirror, only to fall into a post-apocalyptic world filled with rotting corpses gnawing at steel bars. When the first strike cleaved through the onrushing zombies, golden light descended from the sky: in the eyes of the Cangxuan Heavenly Dao, the corpses of this hellish place were actually "acting on behalf of Heaven"! From then on, he wielded the Demon-Slaying Blade in his left hand to cut through the zombie horde, while his right hand formed hand seals to absorb the zombie essence. When he sacrificed 100,000 rotting corpses atop the doomsday nuclear power plant, the thunderclouds gathering in the Cangxuan Realm were dispersed by the golden light of merit. Three years later, the leader of the righteous path looked at the young man who was walking on corpses and discovered that behind him followed a "merit zombie horde" composed of zombies, each rotting corpse with a talisman for purifying evil spirits embedded between its brows. Chu Xuan licked the black blood off his blade and laughed, "You're afraid I'll slaughter people and cultivate demonic arts? But this world is full of zombies..." His fingertips swept across the void, and the distant mountain of corpses suddenly exploded with seven-colored light, "Clearly, it's a merit buffet sent to me by the Heavenly Dao!" The third book: Gu Changge transmigrated into a lowly demonic cultivator. That night, the system handed him a bone knife: "Cut down a hundred people, and I'll give you an ancient demonic sword." While he was chopping down half a celestial mountain, his second brother was engrossed in a tattered book, studying words amidst a pile of corpses—that guy later used blood as ink to carve the decrees of all the gods and Buddhas into his skull, becoming the "Word Dao Saint Emperor" who could swallow galaxies. His third sister was even more ruthless; when he sacrificed 100,000 cultivators, she directly dug up the Taiyin Star as a bathtub, and his awakened Immaculate Saint Body even made the Heavenly Tribulation detour. The most amazing was the monk Wuxin, whom he picked up. One day, sitting atop a mountain of corpses chanting sutras, he caused all the corpses within a radius of ten thousand miles to sit cross-legged in meditation, transforming the demonic battlefield into a Buddhist paradise. Ten years later, Gu Changge returned to the Immortal Realm, stepping on the head of the Ancestral Dragon. As his Chaos Sword Body cleaved through the nine heavens, the system popped up a "100 Consecutive Extraordinary Achievements" reward. He casually tossed the essence blood of the Primordial True Demon to his second brother as ink. His third sister, who was exchanging insults with the Heavenly Dao Saint, suddenly sneered: "Brother, look at that bunch of so-called 'righteous ancestral masters' to the east. Don't they look like the ants that drove us into the mass grave back then?" Before she finished speaking, the unintentional Buddhist beads had already entangled the opponent's Dao foundation, the Buddhist chants mixed with the crisp sound of a bone knife slicing a dragon. When the aura of three emperors from one family suppressed the spiritual energy of the Immortal Realm, Gu Changge licked the holy blood on the demonic sword, looked at the kneeling Heavenly Dao Will in the distance, and laughed: "Back then you thought I was too bloodthirsty? Now my brother can make skeletons preach, my sister can use her holy body to suppress the stars, and as for me—" His fingertips swept across the void, and the black banner of the Heavenly Demon Sect fluttered on the top of the shattered Immortal Palace, "I just led my whole family to cut the rules of this world into what we like." Fourth book: The night Gu Qingfeng transmigrated into a prison guard of the Demon Suppression Division, the system popped up a notification: "Scratched by a demon - Strength +1; bit off three fingers - Regeneration +10; when being lured by a succubus..." He touched the rusty demon-slaying sword at his waist, looked at the blood corpse howling and crashing against the iron bars, and suddenly laughed. Three days later, the eerie Demon Suppression Prison reeked of snail rice noodles. A snake demon, capable of spewing poisonous mist, was seen tossing food in the kitchen, wearing an apron. An eye demon, skilled in illusion, was made into a VR headset and placed on prisoners' heads, playing "Good Luck" on a loop. Even the most ferocious corpse demon, clad in black stockings, was massaging the feet of wounded soldiers in the infirmary, the corpse poison seeping from its fingertips being interpreted by the system as a "foot massage effect." When the righteous leader stormed into the dungeon to investigate, he found Gu Qingfeng with his legs crossed, having a nine-tailed fox dance his newly learned otaku dance, while he held the bone demon, whom he had just beaten until it gained sentience, like a guitar. The system chimed again: "Today you were surrounded and beaten by a hundred demons, achieving the 'Group Pet Achievement,' rewarded with 'Demon Taming Manual'—with the function of automatically dressing your demon pet in a JK uniform." He twirled the bone demon's tail and scanned the ledger, which recorded: the snake demon's kitchen revenue exceeded 10,000, the eye demon's VR experience area requires reservations, and the corpse demon's foot massage requires queuing three days in advance. "My lord, are you investigating a case?" Gu Qingfeng stood up, wiping his blood-stained nails. Behind him, a hundred demons suddenly bowed deeply, the fiercest blood corpse offering a hot towel. "How about trying the newly arrived demonic massage? Look at this ice toad that can breathe both ice and fire; last night, when it froze me into an icicle—" He suddenly leaned close to the other's ear and chuckled, "It practically pulled my hair out." Deep within the dungeon, a thunder demon, transformed into a record player, played a series of off-key songs on repeat: "Today is another good day to bully demons~"

    There are no demonic cultivators, but you can check out *Peerless Martial God*. The protagonist believes in stopping killing with killing, showing no mercy to his enemies. It's incredibly thrilling, with action, comebacks, and battles at its core. The pacing is very tight, the plot is exhilarating, the protagonist doesn't feel frustrated, the world-building is grand and complete, and the emotional development of the protagonist is very delicate. *Tian Yuan* features a protagonist who is reborn after his sect is destroyed. He seeks the truth and defies fate in his reincarnations. The protagonist is calm, wise, and strategic, relying on his intellect. Despite being a mortal, he skillfully uses strategy to overcome the strong with the weak. It's an unconventional, satisfying story without the typical overpowered protagonist.
