Chapter 61: Transformation in the International Sacrifice
Five or six people walked out from the melon-eating crowd. None of these people were intact. They were either blind, had a broken leg, or were missing an arm.
They could only come forward and surround Fang Xiong, look up and down in his mouth, and marvel.
One of them, a big man with half his arm broken, touched his chin and said, "Are you Lu Laizi's disciple? Can that guy teach you a disciple like you?"
Fang Xiong just scratched his head when he heard this.
The man said: "Did Lu Laizi ask you to come here?"
Fang Xiong said honestly: "I came here with my second master." After speaking, he pointed at Zhang Sui.
Zhang Sui saw those Tian Can Di Que looking towards him, smiled and bowed his hands to them.
The few Tian Can Di Que looked at Zhang Sui, and a one-eyed man muttered: "Another young man with nothing to do, is he here to die?"
Zhang Sui, who was still smiling, heard this, and his smile froze on his face.
Zhang Suili secretly complained: "Are these guys so direct in their speech? When they come out to run around in the world, they don't give any face, and every word goes straight to the heart!"
Several other Tian Can Di Que also nodded in agreement with the big man's words, ignored Zhang Sui, and commented on Fang Xiong one after another.
At this time, Cheng Di was extremely anxious. Seeing that everyone was gathered together, they were just chatting and did not pay much attention to the captured Tsing Yi guards and the Tongshen cultists who were behaving more and more strangely.
Cheng Di couldn't bear it any longer, and came to Youde of the Nanli Sect, saluted you, and said: "Senior You, the brothers below are still under the control of the Tongshen cultists. I'm afraid there will be danger.
Please lend a helping hand to Senior You, Kunzhou Qingyi Mansion will be grateful."
You De smiled and said to Cheng Di: "Commander Cheng, don't panic. We know these guys from the Tongshen Cult very well. Their sacrifices are very different from other cults. They will not kill the sacrifices. Those are given to this person."
A sacrifice to a giant tree, the giant tree will only do it when it needs it, but I'm afraid it won't be able to wait until that time."
Just as he was talking, the number of thunder and lightning in the sky suddenly increased greatly, making the entire remote land look like daylight.
The leader of the Tongshen Cult on the altar saw that the Tongshen cultists on all sides had been eliminated, but he didn't seem to care at all. He was just singing the sacrificial words there to himself. The weapons in his hands seemed messy and messy.
It seemed to be dancing in an orderly manner, and to Zhang Sui he looked like a great dancer.
I saw that about one-third of the lush crown of the giant tree had been chopped off by the lightning, and the broken branches were shattered into dots of green light before they fell to the ground, and were reabsorbed by the giant tree.
Among the corpses of the dead Pupil God cultists on the ground, clusters of green light also rose up, converging towards the giant tree. Once the green light left the corpses, the Pupil God cultists instantly turned into ashes in the eyes of everyone.
ash.
These Pushen cultists who knelt around the giant tree and chanted and worshiped saw the green light being quickly absorbed. They were all crazy, their eyes were blurred, and they began to worship even more crazily.
In Zhang Sui's eyes, he could clearly see countless green rays of light emitting from the giant tree, connecting with the crazy Eye God believers who were worshiping.
Soon, a pair of green eyes suddenly appeared above the bodies of the worshiping Hitong God believers, and the expression in those eyes was full of compassion.
Zhang Sui suddenly remembered the pattern on the top of his bed. The eyes outlined in that pattern were very similar to the goosebumps he saw.
Seeing the eyes on the top of their heads, those Pushen believers became even more fanatical, and the words of sacrifice in their mouths turned into roars of unknown meaning.
One by one, the Pupils of God stood up stiffly from the ground and slowly walked towards the giant tree that was being ravaged by lightning. The first Cultist of Pupil who touched the giant tree was instantly wiped out.
But this scene not only did not stop other fellow believers from walking, but instead made their expressions even more unreasonable.
A portal with radiant light appeared under the giant eye of the giant tree. The Cultists of the Pupil God scrambled to climb toward the portal with radiant light. People continued to be wiped out in the process, but none of them flinched.
When Zhang Sui saw this scene, he felt cold all over his body.
The melon-eaters who were chatting and the group of Taoist priests also lost their voices, and just watched silently as the Tongshen cultists were wiped out in ashes one by one.
Taoist Yingde sighed: "How can we not get rid of this kind of demon god? Ordinary people simply cannot withstand the temptation of power and immortality, but in the end they end up being reduced to puppets and nutrients."
Dewey also said: "The world has changed greatly. These demons, gods and beasts have been blessed by the fate of heaven. They have become stronger at a speed that ordinary humans cannot match. Humans are easily susceptible to this temptation. This is also due to nature and cannot be completely cut off."
Taoist Yingde sighed again after hearing this.
You De said on the side: "Why do you care about so many people? As long as you can do your best, kill them one by one. There is really nothing you can do, and there are tall people in front of you! It's too far to worry about."
Zhang Sui deeply agrees with You De's words. When you are not strong enough, just do your best. You have to be a big head. You know that you can't do something, but you still have to force yourself. Zhang Sui can't do it anyway. He doesn't have that kind of strength.
The consciousness of sacrificing oneself for the sake of the world.
Seeing that the group of Tongshen cultists were either wiped out in ashes, or disappeared without a trace after entering the light door.
Near the giant tree, there were only a few leaders of the Pupil God cultists on the altar and the Pupil God cultists guarding the sacrifices. There was no trace of the other Pupil God cultists.
The giant tree was already under the attack of thunder and lightning. The branches and leaves had basically broken and fallen off, turning into green light and being absorbed by the trunk. The remaining trunk stood in place, enduring the ravages of thunder and lightning. And that trunk also
Gradually, clear cracks appeared.
And the green light inside the giant tree's giant eyes became more and more abundant, and the emotions became more and more rich.
In Zhang Sui's view, if the emotions inside those giant eyes were dull and dull at first when they opened, now they are becoming more and more energetic and intelligent.
Upon seeing this, the leader of the Tong Shen Cult on the altar knew that the time had gradually matured, so he made hand seals in his hands, muttered something in his mouth, and pointed at the captives as sacrifices below, and the talismans attached to these captives suddenly emitted a strong burst of power.
Light.
The strong light illuminated the captives so clearly that they felt as if their thoughts and emotions had been magnified more than ten times. Their bodies were restrained by the group of Pushen cultists and they could not move.
Seeing this, everyone in the distance knew that the giant tree had reached a critical moment, and immediately made various preparations.
Cheng Di felt even more heartbroken when he looked at the green-robed Wei brothers who were emitting bright light.
The leader of the Pushen Cult waved his hand, and the group of Pushen Cultists led the prisoners toward the bare tree trunk.
Cheng Di was so anxious that he got on his horse and was about to rush over. As a result, before the horse could even take two steps, the man with a broken arm held the horse's head down. The horse struggled a few times but did not break free.
Cheng Di's eyes were red with anxiety, and with the short crossbow in his hand, he was about to point it at the man.
Na Youde quickly went up to comfort him and said: "Commander Cheng, don't be anxious, it depends on what our brothers do!"
Just as he was talking, three tall and thin men walked out from the melon-eating crowd. These three men were strong and strong, but their arms were much thicker than ordinary people. These three men carried long bows on their backs. The bow was as tall as half a man.
The long arrow in the pot is also a strange red color.
Youde pointed at the Cultists who were pressing the prisoners towards the giant tree.
The three men nodded, took off their long bows and drew out their arrows.
You De said to Taoist Yingde and Dewey: "Everyone, the time is right now. If you wait any longer, it will probably be a bit troublesome. Let's do it!"
Taoist Yingde and Dewey nodded when they heard this. The melon-eating crowd also became serious at this time.
Dewey said to Zhang Sui and Cheng Di: "You and the ordinary Tsing Yi guards can wait here, and we can go and deal with it over there."
Zhang Sui nodded repeatedly. Cheng Di was still unwilling to give in, but thinking about the gap between himself and those people, he finally sighed and gathered the soldiers of the Tsing Yi Guard together.
Zhang Sui thought for a while, then said to Fang Xiong and Gao Shou: "Just leave one of you to guard me, and the other one can also go and help."
Gao Shou glanced at Fang Xiong who was beside him and said quietly: "I'll stay."
Fang Xiong nodded repeatedly, but Zhang Sui was still a little worried about him and warned: "Be careful, don't rush to the front. If anything happens, come to my side." Zhang Sui did not say the last sentence of "let's run away together."
Fang Xiong nodded repeatedly, not sure whether he heard or not.
You De shouted: "Do it!"
The three men holding long bows bent their bows and shot arrows without hesitation.
Three long red arrows flashed across the sky in an instant, piercing into the heads of the three Pupil God cultists who were pressing the captives toward the giant tree. The three Pupil God cultists fell to the ground, and the long red arrows on their heads exploded instantly.
The leader of the Tong Shen Cult on the altar looked back at the Youde group who were running towards this side, gritted his teeth and said: "You guys, I didn't want to fight to the death with you, but you are so ignorant of life and death, then...
Let you see the power of our Tongshen Cult!"
After speaking, he shouted to the group of Tongshen cultists who were escorting the prisoners: "Send the sacrifices over quickly! Tongshen is still waiting for them to replenish their spiritual intelligence. Even if they can't resist, they will be sent to Tongshen before they die.
Before God!"
When the group of Tongshen cultists who were escorting the prisoners heard this, they did not hesitate at all. Even if they kept shooting down one of them with long arrows, they still led the group of prisoners step by step closer to the giant tree.
The leader of the Tongshen Cult took out a handful of things from his arms, which looked like tree seeds. He waved his hand and sprinkled the handful of tree seeds to the people who were running towards them.
When those tree seeds fell in the air, green light shot out from the eyes of the giant tree. When the seeds fell to the ground, they turned into various humanoid or animal-shaped monsters nearly ten feet tall. They blocked the way.
In front of Yude and others.
Zhang Sui's eyes widened when he saw this in the distance, and he thought to himself: "Spreading beans and forming an army?!"
At this time, the giant tree had gradually shattered under the attack of thunder, but the broken fragments also turned into green light, gradually converging towards the pair of giant eyes, and the emotions in those pairs of giant eyes became more and more intense.
Humanized, Thunder's constant attacks made the giant eyes show pain.
The group of prisoners were getting closer and closer to the giant tree. Although the three brothers had excellent archery skills, it could be said that their arrows were not missed.
However, the number of Pushen Cultists was still too large, and Youde and his party were entangled by those monsters that transformed from seeds. Seeing that the group of captives who had no power to resist were escorted by Pushen Cultists to approach the giant tree.
Cheng Di, who was beside Zhang Sui, couldn't hold himself back any longer. He drew out his weapon and shouted in a low voice to the green-clothed guard beside him: "Brother is in front and is about to suffer. Do you want to come forward with me to kill the enemy?"
The green-clothed guards around them drew out their weapons and shouted in unison: "Fight! Fight! Fight!"
Cheng Di turned to Zhang Sui and said, "Master, be more careful!"
After saying this, without waiting for Zhang Sui's reply, he pointed his long sword at the group of Tongshen cultists who were escorting the prisoners of the Tsing Yi Guards, and shouted: "Kill with me!"
He took the lead and led the green-clothed guards behind him to kill the group of Tongshen cultists.
Zhang Sui sighed secretly when he saw this, and said to Gao Shou, the only one left beside him: "Let's go with Commander Cheng, we can't really just be spectators."
After saying that, he touched his waist, trying to pull out the long sword and hold it in his hand to strengthen his courage. But when he touched nothing, he remembered that he had thrown the long sword to Fang Xiong, and it was still hanging on Fang Xiong's waist.
It was a little embarrassing for a while.
Seeing this, Gao Shou urged his horse to take a few steps forward. With his long sword in his hand, he picked up a long knife left by the Tongshen cultivator on the ground and threw it to Zhang Sui.
Zhang Sui saw the long knife flying towards him, he hurriedly caught it, gripped the handle of the knife, gritted his teeth and said: "Go!" and urged his horse to run in the direction of the Qingyi Guards.
Gao Shou on the side raised the corner of his mouth slightly, as if smiling, and urged his horse to follow closely.
