Master of Strange Dao

Chapter 1727 - 465: Cat-Head Labyrinth, Pot World (5k)_3

His ritual and sacrificial techniques aren't very advanced, but he still has a keen eye.To make up for the missing parts, you need to have the materials, knowledge, and skills all in place first.

Unfortunately, many of the materials used here are already extinct and gone forever.

Even if they know how to make up for it, they can't find the materials anymore.

Replacing the materials requires adjusting the whole structure. If they had that capability, they wouldn't need to use this sacrificial altar framework.

In the end, there's only one way to forcibly make up for the flaws.

Blood sacrifice.

The life souls and flesh of many living beings are the most invincible substitutes in sacrificial techniques.

In the Ancient Early Period, blood sacrifice was almost standard for those causing trouble. Even if the sacrificial technique could be completed without it, they would still use blood sacrifice because it could forcibly raise the upper limit.

Yu Ziqing didn't see a large crowd appear; they must have been stored in some kind of Magical Treasure.

Let's wait then.

Yu Ziqing quietly waited, watching Dean Hua continuously adjust the altar, patching it up here and there, sometimes adjusting the altar below, and sometimes the one above.

As they cleared and reconstructed, they slowly expanded to the surrounding stone walls. Grooves and patterns began to appear on the stone walls, making the entire space blend into one.

Using the two altars above and below as the core, the entire massive underground space was transformed into a larger, stranger sacrificial altar.

After waiting a full day, seeing it was almost repaired, Dean Hua said to a sullen young man,

"It's ready. Start now. If it goes smoothly, it can succeed in one attempt."

Dean Hua stood on the altar below, and the young man stood on the altar above. Together, they activated the two altars.

In an instant, flowing light overflowed from the two altars, continuously illuminating the surrounding patterns and runes.

When the halos above and below converged on the surrounding stone walls, a trace of strange and ominous aura seeped out from the walls and the upper and lower floors.

The young man's eyes showed a hint of fanaticism as he began to chant strange and convoluted spells, as if singing an ancient ballad.

As the ominous aura grew denser, a strange aura began to emerge in the center of the altar, with a heartbeat-like sound seemingly echoing directly in everyone's mind.

The young man took out a jade pot and gently tossed it.

The jade pot flew out, growing larger against the wind.

But in the next moment, Yu Ziqing's Kui Step exploded, rushing towards the jade pot.

In the moment Yu Ziqing's aura exploded, he sensed that several people around had already locked onto him.

The sullen young man's Evil Qi erupted, distorting everything around him, making everything Yu Ziqing saw appear as if viewed through flames, twisting and flickering.

Yu Ziqing, expressionless, ignored the distortions. The explosion of Kui Step made it very difficult for him to change direction halfway through.

As long as the space itself wasn't altered, no matter what he saw, he would ultimately grab the jade pot.

He reached towards the twisted space; there seemed to be nothing there, and the jade pot seemed not far away, but his hand still found its target.

In an instant, Yu Ziqing swung one hand to release Peeling, while holding the jade pot with the other hand, fleeing.

Divine Light swirled around, malice boiled, and the arcane secrets of Magical Treasures struck at the spot where the jade pot had been almost simultaneously.

But in that blink of an eye, Yu Ziqing had already passed by, appearing on the stone wall on the other side, while at the spot where the jade pot had been, Peeling stood with arms raised defensively, steam rising from his entire body, resisting all the arcane secrets and Magical Treasures.

A cacophony of metallic clangs and dull thuds wove into one.

As the light faded, only a few white marks remained on Peeling's body, with a Magical Treasure shaped like a ring clutched in his hand.

He gripped the Magical Treasure tightly, forcibly controlling it, blood veins appearing in his eyes.

He looked towards Yu Ziqing on the other side.

Yu Ziqing opened the lid of the jade pot for a glance, his expression instantly darkened.

Inside the Magical Treasure's massive space were countless human figures, at least several million, all mortals.

He even saw many corpses already piled together, with many people just lying there, their faces full of despair and numbness.

In just one glance, Yu Ziqing recognized that many had died from starvation; others were close to starving to death.

They didn't even have the opportunity to lose their minds because the dead bodies were automatically taken away, piled together as materials for the blood sacrifice...

The living and the dead were kept apart.

Yu Ziqing's face began to uncontrollably take on a hungry ghost form, his fury barely suppressed.

He couldn't bear seeing people starved to death by such man-made disasters.

He opened the Dao Court, directly tossing the jade pot inside, along with a storage ring, instructing the Red Ape to take care of them.

He closed the Dao Court, raised his head, his eyes ablaze, his face involuntarily showing a hungry ghost form.

"These members of the Evil Dao truly deserve to die. Peeling, we succeeded."

Yu Ziqing shouted; Peeling could no longer hold back, directly crushing the Magical Treasure in his hand, then chewing and spitting it out.

At this moment, without the support of the blood sacrifice, the activated altar began to wobble and could collapse at any time.

However, in the middle of the space, between the two altars above and below, the strange aura grew stronger, the heartbeat sound intensified.

From the eerie aura emerging there, strange wails began to echo directly in people's hearts.

A large amount of strange aura seeped out, accompanied by the screaming wails, falling into the altar, forcibly supporting its operation.

Yu Ziqing's expression tensed. My good fellow, this aura is definitely the strange phenomenon of the deep sea.

Seeing the sacrificial technique about to fail, some stronger strangeness directly grabbed a weaker strangeness through the gap as an offering to maintain the sacrificial technique.

Yu Ziqing's eyes flickered, regaining calm.

"Peeling, retreat for now, let's see how they clean up this mess!"
