In the corridor.
As soon as Ji Miaomiao went out, she bumped into Xuan Yu at the stairs.
"Junior Sister Xuan Jing, you came out just in time. The abbot is downstairs telling everyone to have a meeting, and I was just about to call you down."
He was wearing a Taoist robe, his face was furrowed and he looked a little depressed, as if he had encountered something, and he spoke a little faster than usual.
Ji Miaomiao nodded when she heard this, closed the door, turned around and explained: "My master is asleep, I will go down by myself."
Xuan Yu didn't say anything when he heard this, turned around and hurried downstairs.
When Ji Miaomiao followed to the front hall, she found that the yard was full of people, more than when she went upstairs today, and she and Xuan Yu stood in a front position.
The view here is better, and you can see clearly what's happening in the entire lobby.
At a glance, she saw that the abbots of Qingyun Temple, Shouwu, and Tianshi Temple, Shoukong, whom she had met during the day, were both sitting at the top seats in the front hall, and the abbot of Ganqing Temple, Shoukai, was sitting in the main seat in the middle.
These three are heavyweights in the Taoist sect, and they are all gathered here this time. Seeing this scene, Ji Miaomiao has a feeling that what they are going to say this time must be very big.
At this time, the head of the Qianqing Temple, who was sitting in the main seat, looked up and saw that most of the people in the front hall had arrived. He stood up and said in a deep voice, "My fellow Taoists, something went wrong during this Taoist conference. I, the old Taoist, would like to apologize to you all on behalf of the Qianqing Temple."
When these words were spoken, everyone who was watching was a little surprised.
Qianqing Temple is the most unique branch of Taoism, and of course the most famous branch in today's society. As the master of this branch, he actually came out to apologize in person!
Everyone was surprised and felt even more uneasy about what had happened.
The abbot sitting in the main seat had a broad field of vision, so he naturally saw the changes in everyone's expressions.
He continued to explain, "To be honest, a few evil cultivators broke into the temple this afternoon and wreaked havoc. They even set up a blood sacrifice formation inside the temple."
"Although I was able to injure that evil cultivator, he was able to escape by using the formation. I have also activated the blood sacrifice formation!"
Hearing this, everyone in the front hall started talking.
One of them asked in confusion, "What is the blood sacrifice formation?"
This was actually the question that Ji Miaomiao wanted to ask. She had been attending classes at Qingyun Temple for several years, but this was the first time she heard of the so-called blood sacrifice formation.
"The blood sacrifice formation is a forbidden technique. Once it is activated, it will absorb everyone in the formation as sacrificial offerings." Xuan Yu, who was standing next to her, saw the confusion on her face and explained indifferently.
When Ji Miaomiao heard this, she looked up at him in shock, but saw Xuan Yu looking in the direction of the main seat. He said this with an expressionless face and stopped talking, as if he didn't know how horrifying what he had just said was.
"Is there no way to break this formation?" she asked, looking away.
Xuan Yu shook his head, looked up and ahead without saying a word, leaving the onlookers confused.
Ji Miaomiao was furious when she saw this, not knowing what he meant, so she raised her lips and forced a smile, looking towards the host seat, keeping her composure and not asking any more questions.
The abbot of Shoukai Temple was giving everyone a simple explanation: "The Blood Sacrifice Formation is a forbidden formation. It requires an evil god as the center of the formation, supplemented by the blood of young boys and girls to draw the formation pattern, and abundant spiritual energy to activate it."
"Once this formation is activated, there's no way to destroy it unless we can defeat the evil god that serves as the center of the formation."
As soon as these words were spoken, the front hall became so quiet that you could hear a pin drop!
God, what is God?
Everyone present was from the Taoist sect, and they knew very well that anyone with the word "God" in their name was not simple, and none of them would be easy to deal with.
So is the divine weapon, so is the evil god.
"Don't worry, fellow Taoists. I have a plan for this matter. No matter what the final outcome is, I will not let all my Taoist disciples perish in this formation."
The abbot of Shoukai Temple sighed and made assurances to everyone.
Ji Miaomiao noticed that when Xuan Yu, who was next to her, heard this, the air pressure around him dropped even more, and his face suddenly became so ugly that it looked like water was about to drip out.
What exactly is this plan to do?
This doubt flashed through her mind for a moment.
"I called you all here this time to inform you of something. The formation must be broken at dawn today, so if you hear any movement then, please take cover and stay safe."
After the abbot of the main seat said the last point, he waved his hand to signal everyone to disperse.
Ji Miaomiao stood where she was, looked up at the sky outside, and found that the moon had already come out, and it was exceptionally quiet in the dark night.
At this moment, Xuan Yu suddenly turned to her and said indifferently: "Junior Sister Xuan Jing, go back to your room and rest first. You can go back after breaking the formation tomorrow."
Ji Miaomiao raised her eyes and glanced at him, meeting Xuan Yu's eyes which seemed to be somewhat suppressed.
She lowered her eyes and nodded slightly, pretending she hadn't noticed anything. She said, "Okay, Senior Brother Xuanyu, I'll go back first."
It was still early before dawn, so Ji Miaomiao went back to her room, closed the door, sat cross-legged on the couch with her eyes closed, and then sent out her mental power to find out the news.
Even if others don't tell her about some things, she can still see them for herself.
Her spiritual power spread out in an instant, enveloping the entire courtyard. She was now in control of everyone's movements within the courtyard, such as Xuan Yu, who was patrolling with his disciples, and the several masters of the temple who were sitting together in the room upstairs, their hearts heavy with worry.
In the small room, there were only three white-haired temple masters sitting on chairs. Their old faces were solemn, and their eyes were lowered with a look of thought in them.
Perhaps noticing the tense atmosphere in the room, Tianshi Monastery's abbot, Shoukong, smiled and said, "Brother Shouwu, it's still early. Would you like to play another round?"
