Chapter 466 Sacrifice to Heaven
As the night fell, Wu Zhi stood up.
He was about 190cm tall, with badly wrinkled skin, slightly long hair, and bangs that almost covered his eyes.
The light in the room was dim. Wu Zhi looked up at the mountains in the center of the screen, and a circle of silver light appeared at the edge of his almost black eyes.
"Wu Zhi, are you sure?" A faint voice sounded in his mind.
Wu Zhi smiled sinisterly and turned his neck. "I really didn't expect that there are such people among humans. It's very interesting..."
The voice in my head continued, "You've already merged too many people. Is it any use?"
Wu Zhi paused with his cane. "There are very few that are truly useful. Aside from the few with damaged bodies, they're all useless. However, little by little, I've learned quite a bit. Unfortunately, the more I use it, the weaker this body becomes. I can see my lifespan is drawing to a close."
"What the hell is going on?" asked the voice in my head.
Wu Zhi said, "According to their memories, it's called something like 'Five Disadvantages and Three Shortcomings'."
"It's okay, I'll change my body when the time comes."
Wu Zhi shook his head. "No. That feeling is very mysterious. I only understand the theory. So far, only this body can feel it. I still don't want to leave until the last moment."
"No candidates?" the voice asked.
Wu Zhi curled his lips. "There is one, a female, but I need to observe her first. Repeatedly switching bodies and fighting for control has drained my mental energy quite a bit."
"Is there anything else I can do?"
Wu Zhi stroked his cane and said, "Third Brother, if we cut off their dragon veins, the fortune of the Central Star will change dramatically. This is a great opportunity for us. The rest depends on you."
The voice in my head came and went: "Yeah, it will be soon."
Wu Zhi laughed sinisterly, and his shadow under the light was stretched extremely long, connecting with the building of the study, creating a dark and depressing atmosphere.
…
The military has imposed martial law on the four locations where the accident occurred. In the eyes of countless people, this is a new type of disease.
Nie Guansheng also arrived, touching his chin with his hand, not knowing what he was thinking.
This area is very remote and few people come here on weekdays. There are a few inconspicuous small houses along the ridge of the mountain.
Yun Mo narrowed his eyes. The master was building houses on the land where he was killed, and there was more than one house built. If nothing unexpected happened, more than one life should have been lost in each house.
"How is it?" Lian Yi asked.
The military has long been consulting with the "masters" at the top of the rankings under various guises.
However, now that the Xuanmen sect is in decline, the only conclusion they have reached is that there may be two formations here, but no one can explain how to break them.
Yun Mo said, "It's the Dragon Locking Formation, a combination of the Juhun Blood Formation and the Juhun Blood Formation. The Juhun Blood Formation absorbs the surrounding Qi and Luck as a sacrifice to the heavens. The Dragon Locking Formation trapped the Azure Dragon in this area..."
Nie Guansheng looked up and typed "Dragon Locking Formation" on the Starnet. Surprisingly, he actually found it...
He frowned as he recited the popular science material: "The Dragon Locking Formation, a legendary forbidden formation, is said to require the collection of four extremely yin instruments, watered with the blood of Xuanmen practitioners. Those born on the 15th of July who died suddenly are buried in the extremely yin position of that day, according to the Qiankun Duili direction. It will take 49 days for the formation to be completed..."
"Fuck..., this must be a lie," Lin Yize had calmed down and followed over to listen.
Nie Guansheng glared at him.
"Uh, Deputy Captain, what's the point of this?"
Nie Guansheng choked, "How would I know!"
Yun Mo had already taken up the conversation, "Legend has it that the Soul-Quickening Formation can gather people's wishes. Thousands of years ago, when technology wasn't as advanced, people relied on good weather and peace, so they would pray to the heavens."
"Normal practice involves offering sacrifices on specific dates. However, some people desire more but cannot afford the price, so they use the Soul-Quickening Formation to offer sacrifices to the heavens..."
Nie Guansheng suddenly understood: "You mean, someone here is using living people as sacrifices?" He didn't believe that the so-called God could give a response, but killing people was a fact before him.
Yun Mo nodded: "It seems so. The four Soul-Quickening Formations, including the one you encountered, plus the Dragon-Locking Formation here..."
Lian Yi looked over and asked, "What will happen if we ignore the Soul-Quickening Formation and the Dragon-Locking Formation you mentioned?"
"Not a blade of grass grows within a hundred miles! You've already seen sudden outbreaks of disease, as well as mutated fungi... those are all reactions to the invasion of evil energy."
"When the luck of this world is exhausted and the planet falls into war," she spread her hands, "finally, it will return to chaos..."
Lian Yi's heart sank for a moment: "So, is the magical weapon you mentioned easy to obtain?"
Yun Mo lowered his eyes: "It's very difficult. You need to be born in a place of blood and evil, and it must be brewed by chance."
She stroked the photo Nie Guansheng had taken on the screen. "If my guess is correct, this stone wall must have been dug out from an ancient battlefield..."
Lian Yi understood a little: "In other words, this formation is difficult to copy?"
Yun Mo nodded: "It won't be completed without a few years." She pointed to the ridge and said: "Without that land where the master is killed, it won't be possible..."
After she finished speaking, she winked at Lian Yi and said, "You can see it, right?"
Lian Yi's eyes had not recovered yet, so he naturally saw it.
"What are you talking about?" Nie Guansheng pulled his hair in annoyance.
Lian Yi suddenly smiled, his face as if ice had just melted, and looked at Nie Gousheng.
Nie Guansheng felt something was wrong and couldn't help but be alert: "What are you going to do?"
Lian Yi turned to Yun Mo and asked, "Open his eyes?"
Yun Mo raised her eyebrows: "Oh, that's great..."
A few seconds later, another young man with shattered values was born.
Lin Yizhe was scratching his head anxiously: "Captain, deputy captain, what on earth are you doing?"
Yun Mo waved her hands: "The Buddha said, it cannot be said, it cannot be said."
Lin Yizhe turned his head away in grief and anger. He didn't want to stay here anymore, so he decided to go to work.
"Can this formation be broken?" Nie Guansheng asked Yun Mo. He had just read popular science on his computer, and this was probably the professional term for asking the question.
Yun Mo frowned. "If it was just the Dragon Locking Formation, there would be no problem. But with the Soul Accident Formation superimposed on top of the Dragon Locking Formation, who would dare to touch the heaven's sacrifice so easily..."
Nie Guansheng snorted and stood in front of Yunmo, looking her up and down. "That's not like your style of speaking. What else do you have to say? Don't beat around the bush, just say it all at once."
Yun Mo rolled her eyes at him, looked towards the blood-red sky in the distance, and said slowly, "There is another key sacrifice here, and that is Xiao Xiaoqiang."
"And you have already touched her."
"In other words, the moment she was rescued, the Dragon Locking Formation was fully activated..."
There was a silence in the air.
Nie Guansheng paced a few steps impatiently: "Stop keeping me in suspense and tell me the solution."
Yun Mo raised her index finger and said, "Which do you prefer, removing the fuel from under the cauldron or confronting it head-on?"
Nie Gaosheng tutted, "What's the price?"
Yun Mo curled her lips slightly. "To remove the fuel from under the cauldron means first breaking the Dragon Locking Formation. Then, under the watchful eyes of the heavens, we can exchange the sacrifice. The price... one for one, what do you think? You can ask those high-ranking officials of the Federation if they are willing to sacrifice themselves to appease the wrath of heaven?"
Nie Guansheng stomped his foot heavily and sneered, "Haha... Don't say they don't believe it. Even if they did, who else would be willing to do it besides that old antique in my family?"
In their eyes, the lives of millions of people are completely incomparable to their own lives and fortunes.
Lian Yi asked, "Can it only be them?"
Yun Mo snorted softly, "Although this selection method is a bit crude, to be able to climb to that position, even if their fate is not extremely high, it is not far behind. Moreover, their decisions can affect the fortunes of countless people. Only such people can..."
Lian Yi closed his eyes: "I can do it."
Nie Guansheng also stood there, patting Lian Yi's shoulder with his left hand. "Although I feel a little wronged for those bastards, brother, I can accompany you."
"Haha..." Yun Mo couldn't help but look up at the sky, his eyes full of complexity.
The Federation is really annoying. Why do these two shining souls have to be Federation people?
She rubbed her face and said, "Don't think about it. You guys are too evil."
