Chapter 1197: Dual Chain Island
“Let’s go.” Iron Beastkin agreed, and the bead disappeared without a trace.
Siren King looked at the place where Iron Beastkin disappeared, pondered for a moment, and suddenly sneered a few times.
Immediately, he took out the communication token, conveyed a few orders, and walked out of the secret room.
After Siren King walked along a small path outside for a while, he came to a seemingly ordinary green stone wall. At this time, the green bead, that contained the soul of Iron Beastkin Zong Yan, was already waiting by the side.
Siren King reached out his hand and patted the stone wall a few times. After the sounds of mechanism clicking, a door about 3 meters in size was exposed on the stone wall.
He flew in, and the green bead followed closely without hesitation, then the stone wall was quickly closed…
A quarter of an hour later, Siren King held the green bead and came to an underground cave with an area of a thousand acres at the bottom of the Sea Emperor Palace.
The cave was extremely cold. Icicles as thick as buckets were erected on the ground. In each icicle, a vague figure was frozen.
The total number of icicles in the entire cave was more than 50,000. At a glance, they were densely packed. It looked extremely strange.
Siren King turned a blind eye to these icicles, walked through them, and came to a black square stone platform with a size of more than 30 meters in the center.
But the stone platform was covered with dense circles of b.l.o.o.d.y patterns.
In addition, 8 black round stone pillars were erected around the stone platform. There were also b.l.o.o.d.y patterns carved on the stone pillars. What was even more strange was that there was a closed b.l.o.o.d.y pupil pattern on each stone pillar. It looked very strange. All the b.l.o.o.d.y pupils were facing the direction of the stone platform.
Numerous tiny b.l.o.o.d.y patterns spread out from the ground of the 8 stone pillars in all directions, endlessly. It could be vaguely seen that each pattern was connected to an icicle.
“I hope that this mystic art can really be effective as you said before.” Siren King tossed the green bead in his hand and let it hovered by his side, then he asked with a deep look.
“If we can collect a total of 80,000 sacrifices in another 10 years, we will be able to truly cast Blood Sacrifice h.e.l.l Array that Tie Cang Mountain has pa.s.sed down since the ancient times, and directly summon the legendary h.e.l.l Beastkin. Now the situation is urgent, we can only make do with it first.” Iron Beastkin’s regretful voice came from the green bead.
“It has taken nearly a hundred years to collect these 50,000 sacrifices. After all, each of them requires a spiritual vein. How is it so easy to collect.” Siren King said lightly.
“Speaking of which, although this method has been pa.s.sed down in my Tie Cang Mountain for so long, it has not been really used a few times. The reason is that there are too many scruples about collecting the sacrifice. Fortunately, it is in this corner of the Sea Region, coupled with years of wars, this has not been discovered. If it was in the Middle Sky Continent, this matter will definitely attract the attention of those big sects, I’m afraid you and I will have nowhere to run.” Iron Beastkin sneered.
“Okay. As long as I can kill that human Real Pellet State cultivator and disintegrate this human counterattack, the entire Sea Region will be mine. Then, you and I will get what we need. Now, please do your best.” As soon as Siren King moved, he landed on the black stone platform and said calmly.
“In this case, let’s start. However, the Blood Sacrifice h.e.l.l Array will take a long time to cast. If the sacrifice process is forcibly interrupted, not only you will not be able to enhance your cultivation, you may be killed immediately too.” Iron Beastkin’s tone was a little worried.
“Don’t worry. I’ve already made proper arrangements. It’s impossible for those human cultivators to reach the Sea Emperor Palace within 8 days.” Siren King said quite confidently.
“If that’s the case, I’m relieved.” Iron Beastkin said in a slow voice.
Siren King didn’t say anything more. He slowly to the center of the stone platform and sat down cross-legged, then he changed a series of gestures while chanting.
Not long after, a hazy blood mist gradually appeared on his body, wrapping his body in it.
The patterns on the stone platform also gradually glowed with b.l.o.o.d.y light. The b.l.o.o.d.y light spread from the stone platform like flowing water.
The green bead possessed by Iron Beastkin suddenly flew up and stopped above the stone platform. Bursts of low incantations came from the bead.
The next moment, the green bead flashed and shot a red light at a stone pillar.
A b.l.o.o.d.y flame suddenly emerged from the top of this stone pillar, and the b.l.o.o.d.y pupils opened. The b.l.o.o.d.y spirit patterns on the surface also glowed with a layer of b.l.o.o.d.y light as if they were ignited. The b.l.o.o.d.y light flickered as if echoing with Siren King’s breathing.
Then Iron Beastkin did the same thing, igniting a b.l.o.o.d.y spiritual flame on several other stone pillars in a certain order.
The moment all the b.l.o.o.d.y pupils opened, all the small b.l.o.o.d.y patterns connected to the stone pillars lit up one after another, illuminating the entire underground cave brightly.
Those ice crystal pillars and the figures within them looked even more strange in this blood-red world.
Just as Siren King was performing the sacrifice, the Alliance army was marching toward the Sea Emperor Palace triumphantly.
However, since leaving Tide Mountain Island, their progress was much slower under the hara.s.sment of the sporadic forces of the Sea Emperor Palace.
3 days later, the Alliance army finally arrived at Dual Chain Island, an important stronghold in front of the Sea Emperor Palace.
At the center of the Alliance army, a black mountain with a size of 300 meters suspended out of nowhere. A series of houses were built on the mountain.
This mountain was Feilai Peak, the treasure of the Windfire Sect. It was used as the base for the leading figures of the Alliance.
At this moment, on Feilai Peak, Liu Ming, Yuan Mo, the man surnamed Mo and others were standing on a platform at the top of the peak, looking at the Dual Chain Island in front.
Dual Chain Island was two adjacent islands with a long and narrow connection in the middle.
At this moment, the Dual Chain Island had already fully activated its enchantment. The entire island was covered by an incomparably huge water blue light curtain. There were nearly ten thousand cultivators of the Sea Emperor Palace and Sea Creature Clan scattering all over the island. It seemed like they were ready to guard the island to the end.
“It seems that these cultivators from the Sea Emperor Palace knew we were coming, and they just turtle in that island.” A red-faced muscular man said with a loud laugh.
This person was Windfire Sect’s newly promoted Crystallization Period cultivator Immortal Chi Yan. Because of his simple mind and fiery temper, he was quite famous among the 5 sects.
Immortal Chi Yang of Windfire Sect glared at the red-faced muscular man, making him shut his mouth sulkily.
“The enchantment below is quite mysterious, and there are quite a few defenders on the island. Lest we delay too much time, should we leave this this island behind and go straight to the Sea Emperor Palace?” Yuan Mo ignored Immortal Chi Yan’s question and asked Liu Ming.
“I don’t think this is good. The Sea Emperor Palace is not too far away. If we are fighting with the Sea Emperor Palace, the defenders here attack us from behind. It will be very bad for us. After all, the people gathered here aren’t all Sea Creature Clan forces.” Before Liu Ming could speak, the man named Mo suddenly interjected.
Yuan Mo glanced at the man surnamed Mo, but he didn’t speak.
“Mr. Mo is right. Let’s start attacking.” Liu Ming looked at Dual Chain Island, nodded and said.
When Yuan Mo and the others heard Liu Ming’s order, they naturally did not dare to disobey and quickly issued orders one after another.
At the same time, in a grand hall of Dual Chain Island, a Sea Creature Clan old man in a golden robe sat upright. This person was one of the several Pseudo Pellet State cultivators that appeared in the Sea Emperor Palace that day.
The old man in a golden robe looked through the roof, watching the fierce fighting outside. His eyes were flickering.
At this moment, 2 figures came into the hall. A Sea Creature Clan middle-aged man also wearing a golden robe, and the other was a long-faced beastkin man wearing a green robe.
“Elder Jin, the order of Elder Qing Qin is to hold these human cultivators for 3 days. You order everyone to retreat to the array. If those human cultivators bypa.s.s Dual Chain Island and head straight for Sea Emperor Palace, then what should we do?” The long-faced man in a green robe said coldly as soon as he entered the door. His tone seemed to be questioning.
“Elder Wen, don’t worry, I’m sure that these humans don’t dare to do that. If they directly attack the Sea Emperor Palace, the 10,000 cultivators on our Dual Chain Island will be their sharp swords.” The old man in a golden robe stood up and said calmly.
“Although that’s the case, what if…” The man in a green robe said.
At this moment, there was the sound of fighting from outside. The Alliance’s cultivators launched countless light beams at the barrier of the Dual Chain Island.
Waves of blue light emerged from the water-blue array. The attacks of the human cultivators caused the loud sounds of sea waves when hitting the barrier.
The man in a green robe was stunned for a moment, then he revealed a look of surprise.
The old man in a golden robe glanced at the middle-aged man at the side. The middle-aged man nodded and waved his hand. A mirror appeared in his hand and launched a golden light.
Seeing the golden light, the Sea Emperor Palace’s cultivators on the island launched a counterattack immediately. Various light beams and spells from both sides intertwined. The fighting sound was endless.
“Elder Jin is really smart. I admire you very much.” The long-faced man in a green robe turned around and bowed to the old man in a golden robe.
“Elder Wen is polite. We are just working for Sir Siren King. Since I am entrusted by Sir to manage this Dual Chain Island, I will naturally do my best. However, although the protective array of this Dual Chain Island is powerful, there is still a Real Pellet State cultivator among the human race. I don’t have the confidence to defend this place for 3 days.” The old man in a golden robe suddenly said worriedly.
“Elder Jin, don’t worry. Sir Qing Qin has already thought carefully about it. He let me bring 2 holy beasts. We will rely on the array on the island to resist for a while. If it doesn’t work, I will summon the holy beasts. As long as we hold these human cultivators until Sir Siren King comes out, he will be able to sweep away these human races.” The long-faced man in a blue robe said confidently as he showed 2 green jade tokens.
