Chapter 228 Ling Xiao's Horror! Second update~~

The spreading rain and blood sprinkled down, reflecting half of the sky red.

All the city residents raised their heads and opened their mouths wide, looking excitedly waiting for the splashed blood to land.

When the little bit of bright red animal blood was spilled, everyone sucked the drop of blood from their mouths with forgetfulness, their expressions were extremely longing and greedy, as if the little bit of blood sprinkled could not satisfy their desires at all.

The crowd kept whistling and howling, and their faces were blotched with blood. It felt like a hungry ghost choosing food, and it looked extremely ferocious and frightening.

Ling Xiao looked at Jia Junnan, who was like everyone else, in awe, and was even more frightened by all these eerie and dark scenes.

"Is this the city of sacrifice? Why is it a bit like the blood sacrifice in ancient legends?" Ling Xiao wondered in his heart.

Ling Xiao once read some mysterious priests' sayings in some ancient scrolls.

He felt that this kind of blood sacrifice was very similar to some ancient racial priest, but there were some differences in it. Besides, the records on the ancient scrolls were incomplete, so he didn't know whether his guess was correct.

Ling Xiao originally thought that the sacrifice to the city was over, who knew that now was the real beginning.

I saw the old man rising in mid-air, clasped his hands, closed his old eyes, and the scepter in his hand was getting more and more radiant.

Suddenly, dark clouds covered the sun in the midair, and was instantly shrouded in darkness, as if the world had been turned into darkness in an instant.

"May the High Priest bless our humble people!"

"May the High Priest bless our humble people!"

...

All the city residents kept worshiping the high priest above midair, repeating the same prayers in their mouths.

After a long time, the scepter in the old man's hand was shining brightly again, he lifted it up high, and shouted "break it!".

Boom!

A sound like a thunderbolt from the blue sky exploded again.

The pitch-black sky seemed to be divided into two by the beam of light, which broke apart in an instant.

The scene was simply spectacular.

Everyone's expressions became even crazier to the extreme, and they kept worshiping the old man in midair.

"In the name of the high priest, I beg God to have mercy on the people of my city, and may the heavens send nectar to wash away the crimes of our people. In the name of the high priest..." The old man spread his folded hands with a serious expression. Facing the sky above, he kept muttering in a low voice.

His voice was like a divine voice from the nine heavens, and every word and every word shook people's hearts.

The pierced sky seemed to have heard some call, and the rain was sprinkled thinly.

This time it was no longer blood, but real rain.

The rain drenched everyone, and at the same time washed the blood off their faces.

Hundreds of thousands of people in the city raised their heads and showed peaceful and satisfied expressions. It seems that at this moment, they have all been washed in their hearts, making them forget all their troubles and pains, leaving only happiness and joyful yearning.

"The ceremony has come to a successful conclusion, my dear citizens, let's revel to our heart's content, we have already obtained the gift of God," the old man said lightly as he slowly fell from the mid-air.

"Thank you for the gift of the High Priest...Thank you for the gift of the High Priest..." All the city residents continued to rejoice.

For a time, the square was filled with boiling cheers.

Ling Xiao looked at the old figure with a somewhat pale expression.

"Earth...Earth Emperor's Step, you can't go wrong!" Ling Xiao looked at the old man who landed and set off a shocking wave in his heart.

With his extraordinary perception, he believed that the old man was definitely a strong man above the emperor rank.

He did not expect that there would be such a powerful existence in this city, no wonder it was not annexed by other sects.

Ling Xiao felt more and more that this place was full of a strange atmosphere, and only felt that something incredible should happen here.

However, although Ling Xiao was curious, there were so many strong men guarding here, his thoughts quickly restrained, and it was better to leave here as soon as possible.

If there is any trouble again, there is really no one who can save him.

"Brother Ling, why are you still in a daze, hurry up and thank the high priest for the gift!" Jia Junnan who was beside Ling Xiao bumped his arm and said.

"Oh" Ling Xiao responded, and quickly imitated Jia Junnan's way of bowing casually a few times.

After the worship ceremony, hundreds of believers came out of the hall, holding some things in their hands and throwing them towards the city residents.

The townspeople shouted passionately and fought frantically.

Jia Junnan, who was beside Ling Xiao, ignored him and squeezed into the crowd to grab the handouts.

Ling Xiao didn't intend to participate in it, Naihe threw something towards him, he grabbed it casually, and there was something extra in his hand.

Ling Xiao opened it up and saw that it was a pill.

Ling Xiao took it close to his nose and sniffed it. After a moment of silence, he murmured, "This... what kind of elixir is this?".

Ling Xiao is already a third-rank pharmacist, and he is familiar with thousands of elixirs in the "Alchemy Jue", so he has a certain understanding of various elixirs, but he can't see what elixirs it is.

Ling Xiao looked around, and saw that the city residents who had obtained the elixir took it immediately, and then they all showed expressions of great enjoyment, as if the elixir had brought them an endless sense of comfort.

Ling Xiao hesitated for a moment, but still threw the elixir into his mouth.

"It seems that the medicine has no effect?" Ling Xiao said doubtfully.

Unexpectedly, the properties of the medicine in the stomach finally began to change in the next moment.

A stream of pure energy spread out. These energies seemed to contain some kind of special effect, which made his body muscles feel relaxed. This kind of sublimation makes people feel happy physically and mentally, and makes people intoxicated in this feeling unconsciously.

Just when Ling Xiao was shown a comfortable smile like everyone else, the pure energy in his body split a small black energy and walked towards the sea of ​​spiritual consciousness.

"Hey, how could this kind of thing come in?" The Green Man in the Sea of ​​Consciousness noticed something strange, and with a lift of his hand, he wrapped the ball of black energy.

Just when the green man restrained the black energy, Ling Xiao instantly regained his sanity.

"What's going on here, is it an illusion?" Ling Xiao sensed his body and found nothing unusual.

After taking the pill just now, he obviously felt that his energy seemed to have increased a lot, but now it is still the same.

At this moment, the golden-robed old man in the middle of the square said loudly, "People of the high priest, you have accepted God's gift, you can go back with peace of mind, of course the boys under the age of twenty-five can stay, and the next It's time for priests' daughters to choose their husbands."

After the announcement of the golden messenger, the townspeople did not disperse, but shouted more heartily and became more crazy, especially those young men, all of them seemed to want to become the grandson-in-law of the high priest. .

Under the maintenance of those believers, all the city residents vacated a two-meter-wide avenue.

The old man in the golden robe said again, "All men who have reached the Xuanshi rank and above and under the age of twenty-five can come forward."

Immediately afterwards, many young people walked out from all directions towards the open space in the center of the square.

Jia Junnan appeared next to Ling Xiao at some point and yelled, "Brother Ling, I'm going up, remember to cheer for me!".

"Don't worry, Brother Jia, I like you," Ling Xiao said encouragingly.

"Thank you brother," Jia Junnan responded, and immediately pushed his way out of the crowd and walked up.

To be honest, Ling Xiao is not optimistic about Jia Junnan at all. Although this guy has the strength of a low-level Xuanshi, but look at the young people who have walked up one by one, everyone has such strength, and there are even more than a dozen who are already spiritual. The cultivation base of a teacher.

Ling Xiao sighed secretly in his heart, fortunately he came out of Meteorite City early, this young man who was once called the number one genius in Meteorite City is just an inconspicuous one here.

None of these young talents are weaker than their fellow disciples in Zitianzong!

After a while, hundreds of young people gathered in front of the center of the square.

These are not only the vast majority of heroes in Gu Ji City, but also geniuses from other cities, all of them are excited and high-spirited.

Among them, the most attractive ones are the dozen or so young people standing in the front row.

They didn't show excited expressions like the others. Instead, they all looked calm, full of arrogance and disdain, and none of the young people around dared to approach them.

These are the dozen or so spiritual masters that Ling Xiao noticed from the very beginning.

There is only one step difference between the level of spiritual master and the level of Xuanshi, but the strength is not the same.

They can already generate the coercion of the spiritual master class, how can the young people of the Xuan Shi class around them approach them.

After all the young people stood up, the priestess finally appeared.

She was the girl who appeared with the old man who held the ceremony before.

I saw her barefoot, walking lightly with lotus steps, and came to a high red platform that had been built long ago.

All the young men looked at the priestess who appeared, all of them showed an extremely eager possessive desire.

Although the priestess was covered with a veil, her face could not be seen clearly, but her looming wheat-colored skin, her waist like a snake like a willow, and the charm exuding from her gestures... are all fascinating.

Ling Xiao among the crowd did not fail to secretly praise "This woman is really alluring!".

The priestess looked around for a look of worry among the young men in the audience.

"Child, it's time to start!" A hoarse voice reached the ears of the priestess.

The body of the priestess trembled slightly, and there was something extra in her hand.

This is a hydrangea ball!

Ling Xiao looked at the embroidered flower ball in the hands of the priestess, and secretly laughed in his heart for no reason, "Does this chick believe in karma?".

The priestess held the embroidered flower ball in front of her chest, her beautiful eyes were tightly closed, and her jade lips squirmed slightly, as if she was praying for something.

At this time, all the young men became even more excited, and the eyes of the dozen or so young men who had always been serious and unsmiling also showed a bit of brilliance.

Whoosh!

The hydrangea ball was thrown high by the priestess.
