Chapter 727 Killing Ritual
In an instant, the corpse that was originally full of flesh and blood,
Suddenly, it seemed as if all the water had been taken away, and it collapsed rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.
It looked as if it had experienced a thousand years of erosion in an instant.
The outline of the corpse became more and more jagged, like a mummy.
Looking again at the place where warm blood should have been flowing, now there were only traces of dried blood left.
As for those sacrifices that lost their lives as living sacrifices, their souls were forcibly pulled out of their bodies at this moment.
These souls struggled and twisted their bodies desperately, trying to get rid of them, but everything was in vain.
They can only float slowly towards the illusory void with endless despair and unwillingness, disappearing into the boundless darkness bit by bit.
However, faced with such a strange and frightening scene, the believers gathered together behaved extremely strangely.
Not only did they not show even a trace of fear,
On the contrary, everyone seemed to have suddenly fallen into some kind of extreme madness.
They all began to wave their arms wildly, and their footsteps jumped involuntarily to the rhythm.
The black robes they were wearing squeaked under the fierce movement.
And the pale masks, illuminated by the dim and flickering candlelight, looked even more sinister and terrifying.
At the same time, the shouts from the believers became louder and more passionate.
The whole scene was chaotic, full of indescribable distortion and madness.
At such a tense moment, when the atmosphere seemed about to explode,
The empty space that was originally as calm as stagnant water suddenly had tiny ripples without warning.
Immediately afterwards, a huge bloody ax slowly fell from the virtual space!
This giant ax is so huge, its size is astonishing.
The ax body alone is dozens of feet long, and the sharp ax blade shines with a soul-stirring cold light.
However, in stark contrast to its huge size, the giant ax fell extremely slowly.
Although it was only a mere ten feet high from the ground, every inch of descent seemed to take a long time.
The blade of the giant ax is not straight and smooth, but curled and twisted.
It was as if he had gone through countless brutal fights before leaving traces behind.
Not only that, the ax blade was also densely covered with a layer of dark red rust.
These rust stains are deeply embedded in the surface of the blade, as if it has been integrated with the ax head.
And between the rust stains, you can vaguely see traces of blood that have dried and solidified.
Although these blood stains have gone through the baptism of time, they still cling tenaciously to the ax blade, silently telling the bloody killings of the past.
At this moment, the originally quiet and pious believers suddenly changed.
Their eyes instantly turned green, as eager as a pack of hungry wolves.
But the strange thing is that despite the unbearable desires in their hearts, their feet seem to be firmly nailed to the ground, and they cannot take even a small step forward no matter what.
Everyone's face showed a look of fear and hesitation, and it was obvious that a fierce struggle was going on inside.
At this moment, a creepy "click" sound resounded throughout the temple.
Everyone followed the sound and saw huge white bone thorns breaking out of the ground at an alarming speed! this
Some giant white bone thorns towered into the sky, with some pieces of rotten flesh and dried black blood still remaining on them, emitting waves of nauseating stench.
They grew at an unimaginable speed, and in the blink of an eye, they tightly surrounded the entire temple, leaving no gaps.
This giant white bone thorn completely cut off all the passages in and out of the temple, turning the temple into an isolated cage in an instant.
Such a horrifying scene, if ordinary people witnessed this scene, they would probably be scared to death on the spot.
However, these loyal followers of Gagu behave very differently from ordinary people.
Not only was there no trace of fear in their eyes, but there was a light that was almost crazy.
They shouted the name of Gagu loudly and passionately,
The deafening sound continued to echo in this airtight space that had been sealed by the giant bone thorns.
Time passed by minute by minute, and about half a stick of incense passed.
Only a loud "clang" sound was heard, like thunder on the ground.
The giant ax carried a huge force and hit the ground hard, making a dull and heavy impact sound.
As this loud noise came, the believers who were still immersed in extreme enthusiasm seemed to have been cast a restraining spell, and all their movements suddenly stopped.
Immediately afterwards, they uniformly turned their attention to the giant ax that was firmly inserted in front of the ancient statue of God.
At this time, several believers had already moved and rushed towards the giant axe.
boom!
Before these people even had time to react, a man dressed like a priest grabbed forward with both hands.
The heads of these people fell directly from their necks.
The priest did not speak, but turned back and glanced coldly at the other believers.
He walked forward directly, intending to pull the giant ax away from the ground.
When other believers approached him, they felt an invisible pressure rushing towards them.
It was as if a huge mountain was pressing down on them, and they all retreated subconsciously.
At this moment, he was very close to the giant ax that smelled of blood and rust.
He slowly stretched out his hand, his arm trembling slightly,
I don’t know whether it was because of excitement or nervousness, but my fingertips moved closer to the handle of the giant axe.
The surrounding believers also held their breaths and stared at this scene intently.
The moment his fingers were about to touch the giant axe, a sudden change occurred.
Countless magical methods poured towards him like raindrops from the crowd.
Facing these sudden and countless attacks, his expression suddenly changed.
He quickly used the spiritual power in his body to try to resist.
But it was only a moment of stalemate, and the layers of magical passages broke through his defenses, drowning him instantly like a raging tide.
There was a loud "boom", and his body was instantly blown to pieces.
It turned into a bloody mist and floated in the air.
And his soul wanted to take the opportunity to escape, but it couldn't escape.
Just after the person dressed as a priest was instantly crushed, the remaining believers completely ignored their old friendship and went completely crazy!
Their eyes were now replaced by a kind of greed and cruelty that was twisted to the extreme, and they fell into an inextricable madness.
After not caring whether the people around him are familiar with each other or what their relationship is,
They started fighting each other like crazy.
I saw a thin believer. Before the people around him could react,
He made a sharp bow and pulled out a sharp short knife from under his black robe.
Then the arm suddenly exerted force, and with a fierce "pop" sound, it penetrated into the opponent's heart without any hindrance.
Warm blood spurted out instantly!
Blood splashed all over his face, and the warm feeling flowed down his cheeks, staining his face with a ferocious look.
But at the moment, he didn't care about any of this at all, and instead, a particularly cruel excitement bloomed on his face.
He increased the mana output in his hand, causing the wound to burst open instantly.
Then, he suddenly pulled out the knife and brought out the bleeding blade.
On the other side, the believers transformed by the demon directly transformed from the human body back into the demon body.
After all, the ancient Brahma religion has a long history, and both humans and demons are its believers.
At this moment, the demon's head began to deform, and the corners of its mouth split directly to the base of its ears.
The sharp fangs inside are jagged and intertwined, full of sharp edges.
Then, the monster suddenly pounced towards the surroundings,
With a wave of its claws, it was like cutting through tofu, easily cutting off a believer's body in half.
At this time, the temple has become more chaotic than the Colosseum.
Shouts, screams, roars, bones breaking, and the sound of blades piercing flesh came one after another.
All kinds of limbs are scattered everywhere, some are still twitching and spasming slightly,
Check out the 16-9 book bar to see the correct version!
This shows that they have not been separated from the body for too long and are still active.
Under such endless killing, the outer bone barrier seemed to become excited,
It originally went from pure white to red in an instant.
The surrounding stone walls began to tremble violently under the bloody impact, and dust fell from the cracks.
The originally mottled murals on the walls,
At this moment, as if they were disturbed, the characters on it seemed to come to life, and they were all writhing in pain.
But the god-like being at the top of the mural grinned as if he was laughing.
The laughter almost came from inside the mural, making it look particularly eerie and strange.
And the eyes of the shrine where Gagu was enshrined began to flash with scarlet light.
I don't know when the sky was covered with dark clouds, and the originally dim light became even dimmer.
The strong wind roared through the gaps between the bone walls and poured into the temple, causing the candlelight to sway violently.
The light and shadow dance on the faces of the people on the mural, adding a sense of eccentricity.
In this place filled with pungent smell, time has lost its meaning.
And those believers who used to be like brothers couldn't care less how much time had passed.
They fell deeper and deeper under the ax's allure, fighting tirelessly against their former comrades.
They were so furious that they didn't care who was in front of them.
All those with stronger cultivation levels were defeated by the rest of the believers at the beginning.
The remaining believers are about the same strength.
This also caused them to exhaust all their mana after such a long period of killing.
At this moment, we can only rely on the most primitive methods.
Unarmed or in close combat with weapons,
This also resulted in extremely bloody killings between them.
When the last scream stopped abruptly, within the stone wall that had been extremely noisy,
There was a moment of dead silence, and the noise just now came to an abrupt end.
The candlelight, which was originally shaking in the wind, seemed to have jumped up much taller at this moment.
Occasionally, there was a faint twitching sound coming from a certain corner, which was an unknown body that was not completely dead.
And the gasping sound coming from the mouth of the last survivor, as well as the faint and deep laughter.
Looking around, the entire temple has turned into a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.
The incomplete tools were piled up on top of each other, and the ground was almost invisible.
Even the exposed ground was rendered dark red at this moment.
Between the mountains, there was a figure struggling to move. It was the only remaining believer after this brutal killing.
The original black robe on his body was already in tatters, and the strips of cloth hung down on his body and were stained red.
Even half of his head was cut off by some sharp weapon.
His remaining left eye showed a kind of confusion caused by extreme pain, but it was also faintly mixed with a hint of fanaticism.
His arms were broken off at the knees, leaving only bloody flesh.
His breath was even as weak as a candle in the wind, as if it would be completely cut off in the next second.
However, even though he was now covered in bruises and on the verge of death, the expression on his face was still fanatical.
He used his bare-bone legs to support his body with difficulty and moved slowly,
He knelt down towards the statue standing in front of him among the mountains of corpses and the sea of blood.
The statue looked spotless amidst the blood and filth.
There seemed to be a faint light flickering in the eyes of the statue, as if it was quietly watching the only survivor in front of it.
His chapped lips trembled slightly as he struggled to spit out a few words.
His voice was hoarse and weak, but it also revealed an indescribable piety and fanaticism.
"O God...I have sent all your other followers to you..."
He seemed to feel that he was not a killer,
Instead, he completed the task given by the gods, or offered the most precious sacrifice to the god in his heart.
Just after his words fell, the air in the temple seemed to freeze instantly.
There were bursts of light and shadow flickering on the statue, which was extremely strange.
But this believer knew that it was his god who appeared at this moment!
Immediately afterwards, a gloomy voice came from the void without warning.
"You did a good job, this is your reward."
As the voice fell,
A haze shot out directly from the eyes of the statue.
He was immediately enveloped in this light,
His body and even his soul began to recover from the injuries sustained.
The bloody giant ax with a curled and rusty blade that originally fell on the ground suddenly glowed with a strange red light.
Then it slowly flew up from the ground and drew an arc in the air.
Flying towards the believers kneeling on the ground.
In the blink of an eye, the giant ax flew only a few feet away from the believers.
The believer raised his head, his eyes full of desire and excitement.
Stretching out the only half of his arm, he wanted to catch the upcoming reward.
At the critical moment when the giant ax was about to fall into the hands of the believer,
Suddenly, a hand stretched out from the void on the side.
The hand was slender and white, but it had a cold texture.
It seems to be carved from jade, with no holes visible.
At this moment, that hand was firmly holding the handle of the giant axe. (End of chapter)
