Chapter 288 Paying Tribute to the Blood River Ancestor
This was Yu Feng's second time cultivating to the Nascent Soul stage. This time, not only was his foundation solid, but his speed was also one month faster than in his previous life.
With Jiang Li's guidance, this is a natural result.
Yu Feng and Wu Lian were worried about the founding ceremony one month later.
The Blood River Patriarch did not dare to abuse his power for personal gain and ask the Xuanji Kingdom for mortals again, but he could ask the mortal emperors to pay tribute to mortals on the eve of the founding ceremony. This was a request from the Heavenly Lord, and no one could change this decision.
Tianzun wanted to use millions of mortals to activate the national protection formation as the opening ceremony of the founding ceremony in a month, leaving a significant mark in the history of Tonggu Continent.
What’s even more terrifying is that almost no cultivators, whether they are from the righteous or evil path, oppose this decision.
To them, mortals are just like pigs and dogs. Once they die, they die. Do they object to the death of livestock? Yu Feng has a deep understanding of death. The pain and despair before death are the most tormenting. They have experienced this process repeatedly and almost went crazy.
So he couldn't understand why monks made such a clear distinction between themselves and mortals and regarded them as two species when they were all human beings, spoke the same language, and had similar ways of thinking.
"Senior Jiang, I want to save someone."
Jiang Li glanced sideways with a smile in his eyes.
This was the first time that Yu Feng wanted to save someone who had nothing to do with him.
"good."
He could see that Yu Feng was a kind person.
If a person knows that everything he does is meaningless, no matter how hard he tries or what kind of relationships he establishes with others, it will eventually turn into nothingness in the passage of time, negating everything he has.
He is likely to indulge himself and do whatever it takes to become stronger, killing people, killing people over and over again.
One of the main reasons why magic flourishes in Tonggu Continent and random killing is allowed is that the speed at which blood sacrifice increases cultivation is too fast.
Relying on normal cultivation methods, it may take ten years to reach the foundation-building stage.
But as long as you kill enough people and know how to draw strength from their lives, you can cultivate to the Foundation Establishment Stage in a year or even half a year.
Not to mention that blood sacrifice can break through bottlenecks and increase lifespan.
Killing a thousand mortals can allow you to advance from the Foundation Establishment Stage to the Golden Core Stage and live a hundred years longer. So, should you kill them or not?
Jiang Yixing gave the answer.
The magic practice method is too tempting for cultivators.
But Yu Feng never does this. He cherishes every chance to live and every life.
When Jiang Li first came to Tonggu Continent, he watched Yu Feng die twice. Seeing his cautious and prudent practice method of not robbing or killing, he decided to help him.
Jiang Li had no reason not to help someone who stood by his bottom line.
…
The Blood River Patriarch has been a little irritable lately.
The emperor of the mortal world paid tribute to a million mortals and locked them up in the dungeon. This was the most important item in the founding ceremony of the country and there could not be any mistakes.
When the mortals learned that they would surely die on this journey, they burst into tears and cried all day long, making the Blood River Ancestor very upset.
He wished he could slap these noisy guys to death and give himself some peace and quiet, but he was the Minister of Rites appointed by the Heavenly Lord and the organizer of the founding ceremony. If he killed these mortals, it would be a slap in the face of the Heavenly Lord, and the Heavenly Lord would probably use him as a sacrifice to activate the formation.
As a master of the Blood River Law, I cannot kill anyone I see. I can't tell you how depressed I am.
"What the hell is going on?" The Blood River Patriarch inspected the Heavenly Prison, spreading his might to intimidate the mortals and ask them to be quiet.
But after I left, they would still cry and make a fuss.
The Blood River Patriarch was helpless. He couldn't always disperse his spiritual sense. A fragile mortal could not withstand such pressure for a long time and would die.
"Master, there is someone outside the door who wants to see you. He said he has a good idea about the founding ceremony." The boy reported to the Blood River Patriarch.
"Let him in."
"Yu Feng pays respect to the ancestor."
"Tell me, what good ideas do you have?" The Blood River Patriarch said lazily. He was so angry that he had no place to vent it. If this kid made a boring suggestion, he would have to resort to some torturous methods such as pulling out the tendons and skinning him.
He is in the Nascent Soul stage at the age of twenty-one and is a genius.
He loves to torture geniuses the most.
The Blood River Patriarch was not good at practicing. There was only one reason why he could practice to the fusion stage, and that was because he killed enough people.
Therefore, he hated those geniuses in cultivation the most.
"I passed by the dungeon and heard mortals crying, which attracted the attention of many monks. I was thinking, if these cowardly mortals also cried during the founding ceremony..."
Yu Feng's words caught the attention of the Blood River Patriarch: "Tell me in detail."
"The founding ceremony is such a grand event, a great joyous event for the entire Tonggu Continent. Crying at that time may have a negative impact and cause displeasure to the Heavenly Venerable."
"I can seal their mouths." The Blood River Patriarch quickly thought of a solution.
"Ancestor is wise and far-sighted. Your solution is much better than what I thought." Yu Feng complimented.
Yu Feng was also feeling emotional in his heart that he really had a connection with the Blood River lineage. From the old woman who made human meat buns, to Ma Pingfan, and then to the current Blood River ancestor, he had come into contact with everyone from the low to the high.

"What's your solution?"
"Mortals are ignorant. We can educate them to be loyal to the Immortal Dynasty and tell them that devoting themselves to the Immortal Dynasty is glorious and worth being proud of. It is a great deed that brings honor to the family. Their death is the cornerstone of the Immortal Dynasty and is meaningful."
"It is a beautiful thing for an ignorant mortal to shout before his death that the Heavenly Lord is wise and the Immortal Dynasty will last forever."
Yu Feng's method is certainly better than that of the Blood River Ancestor, but he cannot say that, because the moody Blood River Ancestor might beat him to death.
In this action, Yu Feng put himself in a dangerous situation.
In the past, he would try his best to avoid high-level cultivators, especially murderers like the Blood River Patriarch.
But this time, in order to save mortals, he could only get close to the Blood River Ancestor.
"Your method is quite interesting." The Blood River Patriarch shook his head slightly, "It's a pity that it has no practical significance. How can an ignorant mortal have such a lofty ideological awareness?"
"You've wasted my time, you deserve to die." The Blood River Patriarch wanted to kill Feng Sheng.
Yu Feng was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat: "Wait a minute, ancestor. Yu Feng can teach mortals. If he fails, it won't be too late for you to kill Yu Feng."
The Blood River Patriarch withdrew his hand.
"I will spare your life for now. If I fail, I will sacrifice you along with all the mortals."
"Thank you for showing mercy, ancestor." Yu Feng kowtowed excitedly.
It's like mourning a dead person.
…
When Yu Feng arrived at the dungeon, men, women, old people and children were all crying and cursing.
With only a month left to die, they were in complete despair.
Resistance is useless.
Tricks, useless.
Begging for mercy is useless.
"Everyone, there is no need to be sad, you should be happy."
Yu Feng's words attracted the attention of some people.
Yu Feng placed amplified notes everywhere so that all mortals could hear his voice.
"You will not die. On the contrary, you will live forever as holy spirits and protect the Immortal Dynasty forever."
After hearing what Yu Feng said, people were skeptical and wanted to hear what this high and mighty monk was saying.
