Chapter 641: Sacrifice (1)
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Xiao Shi was not in a hurry to let his guards jump into the green pool. He came to the other end of the altar and looked into the distance. This altar was mainly triangular in shape and had three steps. Two of the stairs were mainly stairs that went all the way up. The remaining staircase extended downwards.
Xiao Shi arrived in front of the stairs that extended down and looked into the distance. In front of him was an area filled with black fog. This area was clearly the most important holy land in this special area.
“What a powerful demonic aura.” Even though he was far away, Xiao Shi could also sense the terrifying demonic aura transmitted by the black fog in the distance.
Ordinary people could not step in at all with this level of demonic aura. This was very different from what Xiao Shi had imagined. He originally thought that the holy land in this special area would most likely require Martial Demon Realm cultivators like them and their demon avatars to enter together for the final battle.
But from the current situation, Martial Demon Realm cultivators like them clearly could not enter. Before they entered the holy land, they would first remove the seal on the demon avatar here. From this, it was not difficult to guess that in the following holy land, only their demon avatars could enter.
“In other words, the final battle will depend on our respective demon avatars?” Xiao Shi frowned at this. He was not worried about the strength of his demon avatar. In terms of strength, the demon avatar was not inferior to his main body.
He mainly could not understand the reason. After all, according to the current situation, the compet.i.tion for the Holy Land was very likely to be the key to determining the ownership of this special area.
But under normal circ.u.mstances, if one wanted to refine an area to advance to the Sage Realm, they had to reach the second stage of the Martial Demon Realm first. After the demon avatar fused with the main body, they could begin the refinement of the area.
However, after entering this special area, those at the second stage of the Martial Demon Realm had their demon avatars separated and fell to the first stage of the Martial Demon Realm. Furthermore, they had to rely on their demon avatars in the final battle for the Holy Land.
This made Xiao Shi feel incredulous. Although this special area was very special and was different from other areas of the Tianwu Continent, this was also the advancement of a Sage, apart from the refinement of the region.
No matter which era it was, there had never been a situation where one directly advanced from the first stage of the Martial Demon Realm to the Sage Realm. He shook his head. Xiao Shi felt that with the specialness of this special area, it was probably very difficult for him to understand the reason.
He would probably only know the exact situation inside after entering. No matter what, the most important thing now was to first remove the seal on the demon avatar and release it from the sealed box.
Xiao Shi returned to the green pool. He prepared to start sacrificing his guards.
A group of people suddenly appeared on the other step of the altar. They were the other batch of people who had pa.s.sed the fourth checkpoint. Most of them were at the Martial Demon Realm in the three domains.
The leader was a thin and tall man with a huge hat on his head. His entire body seemed to only have a layer of skin wrapped around his bones. He was injured and was currently healing. Clearly, he had left it behind when he cleared the level not long ago.
A group of people followed behind him. Although most of them were at the Martial Demon Realm, there were also Martial Demon Realm cultivators from the Great Wu Empire. In terms of numbers, it was not much different from Xiao Shi and the others.
Xiao Shi was not surprised that this group of people could clear it.
Although the fourth round had to deal with a total of two Sages, and it was definitely difficult for ordinary Martial Demon Realm cultivators, some Martial Demon Realm experts in the three regions also had powerful methods like Chu Tong.
Through such a powerful method, they could also deal with the Sages in the fourth checkpoint. Previously, if Xiao Shi had not brought enhancement to the Evil. At that time, the powerful beam of light released by Chu Tong could already kill the Evil.
As for the three great domains, with the importance the three Heavenly Kings placed on this special area, they would naturally bestow similar powerful methods to the Martial Demon Realm under them.
When this group of people had arrived, the first thing they saw was the Evil behind Xiao Shi. This shocked all of them. Their bodies instantly tensed up, as if they were facing a great enemy. It was only when they realized that this Evil would not attack them like the Evil in the previous checkpoint did they heave a sigh of relief. Then, everyone’s hearts trembled violently.
Because they realized this Evil was actually standing obediently behind a mysterious person shrouded in a black cloak. It was like his servant. This shocked them greatly!
Before that, they had all personally experienced the strength of the Evil. They clearly knew that this was an existence at the Sage Realm. But now, he has actually become this person’s servant?!
“Could it be that… they cleared the level by making this powerful Sage a servant?!” This group of people’s minds were in turmoil. They looked at Xiao Shi with shock and fear.
Among these people who had arrived, the Martial Demon Realm cultivators from the Great Wu Empire quickly looked around, but they did not find Chu Tong. This made them frown..
