Chapter 1 Sacrifice



"A bow!"

"Two bows!"

“Bow three times!”

"Kowtowing!"

Listening to the noisy noises coming from all around, Ji Yang tried hard to open his eyes, wanting to get a glimpse of what was going on.

After a while, the vague consciousness gradually awakened.

What caught his eye was a strange ancestral hall. Below the hall, there were rows of blurry figures kneeling on the bluestone slabs, kowtowing to him.

Ji Yang murmured in his heart:

"Dead?"

Well, there is no reason for a truck that is out of control to survive.

However, before he lost consciousness, he used all his strength and finally crawled to the middle of the zebra crossing. I guess the compensation should be quite a lot.

This can be considered as the small contribution I can make for my family before I die!

Ji Yang sighed, but then he realized something was wrong.

He is young and has no children. Even at his funeral, there wouldn't be so many people bowing to him, right?

Besides, you are dead, so where does your consciousness come from?

Before Ji Yang could think more, a slightly turbid consciousness suddenly flooded into his mind.

That is the inheritance of memory!

The originally vague consciousness quickly became clear!

Along with the line of sight, it also becomes clear and visible!

When Ji Yang looked down again, he found something different, because he didn't recognize any of the people who were kneeling below, and these people were dressed strangely, wearing clothes made of ancient animal skins with strange shapes!

Ji Yang lowered his head, wanting to see his current condition. Was his soul ascending to heaven?

But when Ji Yang looked at the body that was no more than two meters tall, no thicker than a bamboo pole, and as thin as a dead tree, he was speechless for a long time.

Just because this dead tree is not an adjective, but a realist!

He actually turned into a tree!

Although he couldn't tell the variety, the withered and grayish-yellow branches told him that the tree was not in good condition!

At the same time, the impact of the memories in his mind made Ji Yang fall into deep thought.

"The ceremony is over!"

"Sacrifice!"

As everyone stood up, several people soon carried the corpses of several unknown animals and placed them in the dirt area below that was not covered by stone slabs!

After the offerings were placed, an old man in coarse cloth slowly stood up, holding a yellowed animal skin in his hand. He raised one hand high and uttered a string of strange and difficult words:

"Great sacred tree, please grant us divine power! Give us hope for life! Show us your endless glory..."

Ji Yang understood the meaning of this unfamiliar language very clearly.

Combined with the incomplete memories that just flooded into his mind, all the mysterious things before his eyes had answers.

He not only became a tree, but also became the sacred tree of this small family!

The target of this sacrifice is oneself.

Through the original memory of the tree in his mind, Ji Yang learned that the current world was not his original world, but a new world.

And it is also a high-level martial arts world where family traditions prevail!

People have applied the power of Qi and blood to the extreme and exerted extraordinary power, and have established a unique practice system based on it!

In this world, some people can destroy mountains and break rocks, and some people can soar into the sky!

All the impossibilities in the previous life have now become reality!

In addition to this unique practice system, there is also something called the totem offering.

Ji Yang didn't have much memory about this, and he only had a vague understanding of it.

But what is certain is that he is now the totem of this family!

As a talent of the new century, Ji Yang quickly accepted the fact that he had traveled through time, but the fact that he had turned into a tree, even a worshipped sacred tree, still made Ji Yang feel a little repulsive.

Ji Yang tried hard to stretch his body, but no matter how hard he tried, the branches below did not move at all. Only the breeze could make his skinny body feel swaying.

After trying for a long time without success, Ji Yang had no choice but to give up. He then lowered his head and silently watched the actions of the people below, observing this special ceremony!

After the old man below offered sacrifices, the throats of several animal corpses placed in the mud were quickly cut by knives.

A large amount of blood gushed out, instantly dyeing the ground scarlet!

Although he had no body, Ji Yang couldn't help but frown when he saw this scene.

It’s actually a blood sacrifice!

What good could this offering be?

But then I remembered that it seemed like I was the one being worshipped by everyone, so it was okay!

As the blood seeped into the ground, Ji Yang felt a strange feeling in his body.

Ji Yang wasn't sure whether this was good or bad, but as a model young man, he rationally wanted to refuse.

But when the blood seeped into the roots underground, Ji Yang felt a tremor in his soul!

It was a desire, an instinctive desire.

The next moment, several roots buried underground absorbed all the blood that seeped into the ground, and they stopped only after all the blood was sucked dry.

After the sacrifice, the old man looked up at the sacred tree in front of him, and saw that the sacred tree was the same as usual, with no change at all. This made the old man's eyes reveal a trace of disappointment and confusion, and then he lowered his head and prayed again.

Except for the old man, the expressions of the others were different at this time. Some even looked at their own sacred tree with a bit of disgust and hatred in their eyes.

However, Ji Yang didn't pay any attention at this time, but was immersed in a strange pleasure.

After the underground roots finished absorbing the blood, Ji Yang heard a crisp ding-dong sound.
