Chapter 1025 Blood Sacrificial?
Ye Qiu"s heart trembled as he looked at the blood-red world in front of him. The desire to kill in his heart became stronger. His entire head seemed to be about to explode.
"d.a.m.n it!" With a curse, the righteous energy in Ye Qiu"s body erupted and blocked this corrosive bewitching power. In that second just now, he had almost lost his nature and become a puppet for killing.
Just as Ye Qiu had guessed, there was indeed a secret in this cave. Otherwise, that ancient ferocious spirit would not have risked its life to protect it. As he walked deeper into the cave, Ye Qiu felt the blood in his body continuously corroded with every step he took.
Something seemed to have changed.
After pa.s.sing through a dark void, Ye Qiu arrived at a Grotto-heaven World. This place was filled with a bright red plant that kept emitting a terrifying aura of death. If nothing unexpected happened, the death energy that Ye Qiu smelled at the entrance was emitted by this strange plant.
Ye Qiu had never seen such a plant before. He was vigilant and didn"t dare to take the initiative to approach. This was because there were many strange things here. The best choice for things that exceeded his understanding was to keep a distance.
In the center of the cave was a huge altar. Two parts of the altar flowed with a bright red liquid and was filled with the smell of blood. Even after so many years, that blood energy was still alive.
Ye Qiu was shocked and said, "Could it be that the blood of the living beings who died in the ancient battlefield will eventually flow here?"
Ye Qiu was shocked. From the freshness of this blood, it definitely hadn"t existed for long. It was even possible that it had just flowed in!
Ye Qiu had a bold guess. Could it be that someone had used this altar to gather the blood of all living beings in the world for a blood sacrifice?
Bang bang…
Ye Qiu didn"t have time to think too much. Just as he was still confused, a sound came from the cave behind him. He hurriedly hid in a small gap and hid all his aura. A few black figures walked in from the darkness. They were dressed in black robes that covered their entire bodies, making it impossible to see their faces.
"This is the legendary Blood Sacrificial Land of the Immortal Ancient fiendcelestial, right?"
"Haha, it"s indeed as the rumors say. Even after so many years, this altar is still so well preserved. Moreover, there"s an endless stream of fresh blood flowing in." In the image, the black-robed man in the lead said.
Ye Qiu couldn"t see his face clearly, but he could clearly see that the terrifying bones on his arm were fleshless.
As soon as he spoke, the few people beside him immediately replied, "Congratulations, Lord! With the help of this array, you can quickly reconstruct your body and have the power of immortality. At that time, once you return to the Heavens, you will be fully deserving of being invincible. A thousand years of dominance will be just around the corner."
"Haha!" Hearing this, the black-robed man laughed loudly, as if the hatred that had been suppressed in his heart for many years had been completely released at this moment. "Good, good, good…"
After saying that three times, he said coldly, "However, this is far from enough. After that battle, my body was destroyed. If I want to reconstruct a perfect body, I still need more fresh flesh and blood."
After saying that, he took off his robe, revealing a badly mangled body that emitted a disgusting stench.
Ye Qiu frowned, but he didn"t appear and silently observed. He seemed to have discovered a shocking secret from their conversation.
There was a blood sacrifice array hidden under these so-called Immortal Ancient Ruins, and the flesh and blood of all the living beings who had died tragically would eventually flow here.
He wanted to use their power to achieve the effect of the blood sacrifice. This badly mangled black-robed man in front of him wanted to use this blood sacrifice array to reconstruct his body to achieve the effect of immortality.
The ancient ferocious spirit at the entrance of the cave previously also had the effect of being undying. Moreover, its strength would increase every time it died.
Ye Qiu was shocked. If that was the case, he definitely couldn"t let this black-robed man in front of him succeed in the blood sacrifice. He wanted to borrow thousands of b.l.o.o.d.y living beings to help him ascend to longevity. Once he succeeded, countless innocent creatures would die.
Most importantly, with his bloodthirsty personality, once he succeeded, the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands would become his slaughterhouse and there would be no peace from then on.
Ye Qiu had no choice but to consider this. After the black-robed man took off his robe, he soaked in the blood pool. One could clearly see that his flesh was continuously solidifying and gradually recovering.
However, it was not difficult for him to purely recover his body. What was difficult was how to absorb this powerful blood energy to temper his perfect body and reach the extraordinary realm.
Clearly, just relying on this blood energy was far from enough. Moreover, his ambition was also far more than this.
Undying and indestructible was his ultimate goal. The few black-robed people behind him silently guarded behind him. It was unknown what they were plotting. They were too far away for Ye Qiu to hear clearly. However, he did not dare to get too close because he would be discovered if he did.
Just as he was feeling vexed, suddenly, an angry roar came from the entrance. Ye Qiu was delighted when he heard this. Good lord! You"re finally back. He was just worried about how to stop them. He did not expect the surprise to be so sudden.
The guardian divine beast, the ancient ferocious spirit that had been kicked away by Ye Qiu, had finally returned. And it returned with extreme anger!
Ye Qiu didn"t expect it to return so quickly. He was still feeling regretful. If he had known earlier, he wouldn"t have kicked it so far away. The entire cave shook with that angry roar.
The man in the blood pool frowned, but he did not choose to leave the blood pool. Instead, he revealed a dissatisfied expression and said, "Array-protecting divine beast? Hmph… Brainless thing, go, kill it."
"Yes." The other black-robed men received the order and a few sickles instantly appeared in their hands. They sharpened their swords and walked towards the entrance of the cave. It b.u.mped into the ferocious spirit that was returning to the cave. At this moment, it was abnormally angry.
It was fine if it was humiliated by a human, but it was not unbearable to let it run away like a dog. What it could not accept the most was that its lair was actually occupied by others. It couldn"t take it anymore!
"Roar!" With an angry roar, it was furious. Flames erupted.
"You"re courting death." However, those black-robed men were not to be trifled with. Seeing that the ferocious spirit did not know what was good for it, the few of them instantly attacked, wanting to instantly kill the ferocious spirit as quickly as possible.
However, after the battle with Ye Qiu, its current strength had already reached the terrifying Dao Sacrificial realm and even surpa.s.sed this limit. The moment they met, the few black-robed men instantly felt the pressure and were dumbfounded. "What"s going on? Didn"t the intelligence say that this brainless idiot is at most at the peak of the Dao Sacrificial realm?"
