Chapter 371 Blood Sacrifice Ceremony

Xie Que came out of the void and returned to the Jiuling Islands, when a crab demon came looking for him:

"Lord Buddha, the princess invites you."

Xie Que didn't ask any more questions. He just nodded and followed the crab demon.

The two blue and white fish monsters were still following Xie Que.

The crab demon said that Princess All Saints is not in the fairy mountain now, but in an altar under the deep sea.

The blood sacrifice ceremony is about to begin, so the princess needs to make some preparations for the ceremony.

Xie Que was also quite curious, so he got into the sea water with them.

The demons took Xie Que and dived to an unknown depth into the seabed, only then did they see a glimmer of light in the dark world.

Xie Que thought about it, and besides the blood sacrifice ceremony, he didn't know what the reason why Princess Wan Sheng called him there was.

After all, this ceremony has been held for countless years and has nothing to do with me.

It's nothing more than urging myself, or looking for the totem god.

When the bright light got closer, the water waves were suddenly isolated, and Xie Que felt as if he had entered a new world.

When Xie Que first entered, he felt that the spiritual energy was completely blocked, but a fishy smell penetrated into his nasal cavity.

At the same time, Xie Que also saw the altar.

The appearance of this altar is no different from the statue of the nine-headed worm. It is a hundred feet high, and the entire body is actually trimmed from a complete coral.

In front of the coral altar, nine large cauldrons were placed, all of which were filled with blood.

The fishy smell must have come from the blood in the cauldron.

All the big demons around are as huge as hills.

They carry animal heads on their heads, but underneath their necks are human figures. They are all wearing complicated robes used for sacrificial rituals.

They gathered together in small groups, either stirring the blood in the cauldron, or continuing to pour blood into the cauldron.

Xie Que could tell that these big monsters were probably the core members of Poseidon Temple.

After all, I could see a trace of caution and admiration in their eyes.

These can only be possessed by devout worshipers of gods.

As a believer, it is extremely glorious to be able to offer blood food to the gods with your own hands.

Maybe it was because of Princess Wan Sheng's previous instructions. When these monster priests saw Xie Que, they bowed slightly and saluted, then ignored him and continued busy with their affairs.

Xie Que looked around, but found no trace of the Halloween Princess.

The crab demon on the side also did not see the princess, so he said to Xie Que: "Lord Buddha, please stay here for a while, the princess will arrive from time to time."

Xie Tiao nodded, not showing any emotion, but rather curious.

This was the first time he had seen such a divine ceremony.

This is obviously different from Buddhism, and it seems to show a hint of "evil" attribute.

No wonder... all the classics in the samsara path say that Poseidon is an evil god.

Just the ceremony I saw now was bloody enough for the Nine-Headed Insect to bear the word "evil god".

Xie Que looked around and found that these great demons, as worshipers of gods, were almost all spiritual generals, and he couldn't help but start to make calculations in his heart.

Logically speaking, the grace that a god can bestow upon believers is limited.

How many spiritual generals can appear among the believers depends entirely on the total number of followers of the god.

Even within the Reincarnation Path, the number of spiritual generals among a single Buddha's followers is probably not that large.

According to Princess Wan Sheng, the Poseidon Temple included almost half of the Qiongyu Sea at its peak.

Such a quantity could not help but make Xie Que feel a little frightened.

After all, he has personally experienced the vastness of the sky and the sea.

Even though there are not many islands, the population is very small.

But don’t forget…

The Poseidon is different from Taoist Buddhism in that monsters can also worship gods.

In addition, almost all of the worshipers Xie Que saw here were born as sea monsters.

That made Xie Que come up with an astonishing number.

"No wonder he fell into the sky barrier..." Xie Que was secretly speechless.

With such a large number, not to mention the Nine-Headed Insects, even the famous immortals and Buddhas would fall into the sky.

Xie Que's eyes glanced over the believers who were working, and a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

He then walked towards a bird-headed sacrifice.

The big demons who were monitoring Xie Que couldn't help but frown when they saw this.

After they glanced at each other, they did not stop Xie Que.

After all, this is the mission that Princess Wan Sheng originally gave them. As long as Xie Que is still in their eyes or within the range of their souls, it is feasible to do things within the rules.

It's just that the altar here is the core and vital place of Poseidon Temple.

Once it is damaged, I am afraid that the Nine Prince Consort will also be affected.

Xie Que stopped the bird-headed priest who was reciting prayers and couldn't help but ask, "What are you doing?"

This bird-headed sacrifice is nearly twenty meters tall, and its head should be a seagull.

The bird-headed priest was also a little confused when he saw the person coming.

But Princess Wan Sheng had ordered them to behave respectfully when seeing Xie Que.

He thought carefully that what he had done was not a secret, so he lowered his head, looked at Xie Que, and replied in a sharp voice: "Tell me, Buddha, we are preparing for a blood sacrifice ceremony."

Xie Tiao nodded, without asking any more questions, and just walked around the big cauldron a few times.

The smell of blood is strong, and if you get close, you can smell the fishy smell coming towards your face.

But those with a keen sense of smell can also distinguish a unique taste from the blood.

"Hai Lingzhi..." Xie Que couldn't help but be startled.

He uses this medicine a lot. For warriors, it is a great tonic that can increase Qi and blood.

Xie Que can almost conclude from this that it is not only the blood of monsters, but also mixed with a large number of other dietary tonic medicinal materials,

His thoughts moved and he couldn't help but ask the bird-head sacrificer: "How often do you hold this ceremony?"

The priest didn't think much and answered truthfully: "I'll tell you, Buddha, once a year."

Xie Que asked the priest to continue reciting the scriptures, while he stopped a fish head priest who was about to pour out his blood.

"Is it convenient..." Xie Que smiled and pointed at the big bucket in his hand.

The fish demon hesitated for a long time and couldn't help but focus on the crab demon who led Xie Que.

The crab demon also immediately made a look, and the fish demon just nodded.

"Thank you very much." Xie Que stretched out a finger and tapped it lightly on the blood in the bucket, then put it on the tip of his tongue and touched it slightly.

A stream of hot water suddenly rose from the tip of his tongue, and Xie Que felt the heat in his body.

The abundant energy and blood that was originally hidden in the acupoints could not help but ignite a fire at this moment, but it was fleeting.

Xie Que immediately felt happy.

I don't know what this medicinal blood is made of, but the increase in qi and blood is powerful that Xie Que has never experienced before.

Just a little bit is comparable to hundreds of kilograms of Hengsha rice.

Xie Que estimated that only the flesh and blood of the Six Realm Great Demon could have such an effect.

He looked up and visually inspected the nine cauldrons, each of which was almost more than one foot tall.

It's just that these monster sacrifices were already huge in size, which made the cauldron look a bit miniscule.

Within a cauldron, Xie Que guessed that it could hold several tons of blood.

So to hold a blood sacrifice ceremony requires more than ten tons of medicinal blood.

If you can get the formula of this medicinal blood and use it to cultivate your own warrior power, you will get twice the result with half the effort.

But that's not the point either.

Xie Que narrowed his eyes and focused on the coral.

Such a huge nine-headed insect...

And over the years, the blood sacrifice ceremony has never been interrupted.

One can imagine how powerful the flesh and blood of this nine-headed worm must be.

If you could taste it, it would be comparable to the legendary Tang Monk meat.

Xie Que couldn't help but licked his lips. Just as he was thinking about it, a beautiful figure floated down in front of him.

"Buddha, you have been waiting for a long time." Princess Wan Sheng still said with a smile.

It's just that her dress today is not what she has seen before. It has complicated patterns, and even her jewelry is very particular. It seems that she came here for this ceremony.

"Nothing, just half a stick of incense." Xie Que also smiled.

Princess Wan Sheng added: "I heard that the Buddha happened to be out of seclusion, so I specially invited the Buddha to come and watch the ceremony."

"That's a coincidence." Xie Que glanced at the coral statue, which was already emitting a bright red light: "Thank you very much, Princess."

"It doesn't matter, after the ceremony is over, I still have important matters to discuss with the Buddha." Princess Wan Sheng's eyes were bright, and she didn't know what she was thinking.

Xie Que agreed, but his mind suddenly became more flexible.

He didn't know whether Princess All Saints had found the totem god.

But he also understood that now that the Nine-Headed Insect has not awakened, even if the Halloween Princess begins to suspect her scam, she will not expose it at once.

His eyes looked at the rising altar, and his eyes moved slightly:

"If I can pry away the flesh and blood of this nine-headed worm, I will have to take some first when I enter its body next time."

With the existence of a "body that breaks through the realm", Xie Que knows that his powerful body is the real trump card.

The Zifu golden elixir and the incarnation of Tao are just additions, just for display to others.

Only physical strength without limits is what one should truly pursue.

Princess Halloween commanded the group of monsters and built an altar that looked like a dragon's head.

In an instant, a water-like light began to spread around the statue.

Vaguely, Xie Que could still see a golden light that seemed to rise in the sky like nine great suns.

But this is the bottom of the sea, and Xie Que also understands very well that this must be a vision caused by the altar.

The roar resounded, as if a volcano erupted under the sea, and nine golden lights began to swirl around each other.

Princess All Saints stepped onto the altar at this moment.

She held a large flag, and the white mist drifted away as she waved it.

The white mist turned into nine small snakes in the blink of an eye and began to move.

This is where she began to murmur: "My husband is virtuous, and heaven and earth are kind to him. Since he is a god, I am offering sacrifices to him sincerely..."

As she thought, the nine little snakes in the sky became more agile and flew towards the golden light in the sky.

Xie Que looked around eagerly, but he didn't know when.

Demon soldiers were already standing around the altar.

Most of these demon soldiers are only in the fourth realm, but their eyes are full of expectations and they hold their heads high.

The armor on his body was as bright as a bright mirror, and the weapons in his hands shone coldly under the water.

Just as Princess Wan Sheng was thinking about it, these demon soldiers suddenly burst into cheers.

Then he kowtowed and worshiped the statue: "Kurastuka..."

Xie Que understood the slogans they were chanting.

Xie Que's expression didn't change, but he realized in his heart, this is... the shark language? !

Could it be that those same sharks who worshiped the Ghost Sea Old Immortal were also related to the Poseidon Temple?

It's just that the old fairy of the ghost sea is an incarnation of Zhuang Zhou, so he can actually be related to this nine-headed insect?

After much thought, Xie Que could only attribute the reason to the fact that both of them were in the North Sea.

He looked to the sky.

At this moment, above the sky, the nine little snakes all burrowed into the golden light.

The nine golden lights also suddenly let out a sharp scream at this moment.

Along with the sound of flapping wings, these nine golden lights turned into giant black birds.

They fell down, stood in the cauldron, and began to swallow the blood in the cauldron.

"I'm afraid... the true spirit of the All Saint Princess is really in the body of the nine-headed worm..." Xie Que thought and glanced at the All Saint Princess with his peripheral vision.

"It is probably because of this reason that she is so confident, so even if the nine-headed insect falls into a deep sleep, she can still rely on the true spirit and draw on the power of some gods."

Thinking of this, Xie Que overturned his previous plan.

No wonder the Princess of All Saints had the confidence to agree to herself and steal the gods.

With the power of this nine-headed insect, even if it is only a small part leaked, it will be difficult for the totem gods to resist her.

In a moment, the nine-headed black giant bird finished drinking the medicinal blood.

And their bodies suddenly turned into points of light again and merged into the statues.

The ceremony was over, and these monster priests began to dismantle the altar.

Princess Wan Sheng walked to Xie Que's side.

She took off the jeweled sacrificial crown on her head and threw it casually to one side.

If ordinary people dared to act like this, these priests would have cut them into pieces long ago.

But they also know that the princess is not only the real talker in Poseidon Temple.

She was also the wife of Poseidon, so she just pretended not to see her.

Princess Wan Sheng smiled and said: "The ceremony is over, what do you think?"

How do you feel about this? I am not a believer of the Nine-Headed Insect, Xie Que slandered me in his heart.

But on the surface, he just said with emotion: "Even though the Poseidon has been sleeping for so many years, the believers are still devout... This only shows that the princess does things well and has won the hearts of these believers..."

Princess Wan Sheng immediately covered her face and smiled: "Buddha is so complimentary."

What Xie Que said was not false.

He himself had stayed in Qiongyuhai.

It's just that over the past thousands of years, the power of Poseidon Temple outside has been shrinking, and now the new generation almost doesn't remember this power.

On the contrary, those scattered small forces have once again occupied the mainstream.

Xie Que sighed secretly.

But based on the strength of Poseidon Temple exposed in front of him, even if those small forces were 10,000 times stronger, it would be difficult to shake Poseidon Temple's current status.

Princess All Saints said again: "About the gods...do I have news?"

When Xie Que heard this, he also became serious and looked at her cautiously: "Is what the princess said true?"

Princess All Saints agreed and said: "There's no point in lying to you, it's indeed true."

"A few days ago, a fish demon under me discovered traces of the evil god's existence on an isolated island more than 600,000 miles away." (End of Chapter)
