Chapter 626: Sacrifice of All Souls
Tu Zhenyue gave an order: "Begin to set up the formation and destroy the altar!"
"Yes!" Everyone responded in unison and dispersed to form the formation.
The shadow of a giant sword appeared above the stone altar, condensing huge energy and chopping down heavily.
There was a sound like a landslide, accompanied by the shattering of huge rocks.
The altar was broken.
As soon as Tu Zhenyue smiled, he saw a ray of light flying out from the broken stone formation.
Without hesitation, he grabbed Jiang Shi who was beside him and threw him out.
"No——!" Jiang Shi screamed in horror.
Bang!
The moment the light touched him, he was blown into a bloody mist and scattered all over the ground.
Tu Zhenyue waved his sleeves disapprovingly, "Jiang Linyuan, you are really cruel. You even had a trick up your sleeve. But the one who died was someone from your Jiang family."
"The stone formation altar has been broken. Go to the heart of the god of war to unlock it!"
The crowd left in a mighty manner.
Two minutes later, Shen Wan and Jiang Linyuan appeared in a pile of rocks.
Looking at the blood and mud on the ground, Jiang Linyuan's old face was full of regret. "Jiang Shi, with your talent, you will become the head of the Jiang family sooner or later. Are you so impatient to replace me? You deserve it, you really deserve it!"
“Friend Shen, this altar has been broken, and they have already rushed to the sealed place of the God of War’s Heart. Do we really not need to stop them?”
Jiang Linyuan's face was full of worry.
Chen Wan looked serious and told him about the sealing arrays she had set up in various places.
Jiang Linyuan's eyes widened after hearing this: "You mean, the more they unlock the seal, the faster the power of the God of War disappears?"
Chen Wan nodded: "That's right."
Jiang Linyuan couldn't help but applaud, "Why didn't I expect there would be such a heaven-defying operation!"
Shen Wan smiled and said, “Thanks to Senior Jiang for sending me to Xuanji Pavilion, I was able to find a solution inside.”
Jiang Linyuan stroked his beard and smiled, "You have this opportunity. I am very curious. How did you think of going back to the past? What opportunity did God give you?"
Shen Wan smiled mysteriously: "Thanks to Senior Jiang's diary."
"Diary?" Jiang Linyuan asked in confusion: "What diary?"
Shen Wan took out the yellowed old diary.
Jiang Linyuan's eyes lit up when he saw the diary, and he asked in surprise: "Isn't this the diary from my youth? How come it's in your hands?"
"I read a lot of books in Xuanji Pavilion, but this one is the only one that doesn't fit in with the ancient books. Once I saw it, I realized that the key to the opportunity is in your diary."
Shen Wan returned the diary to him.
Jiang Linyuan flipped through a few pages and saw the Nine Stars in a Row that he had written, and then he suddenly realized.
"I see! That's the reason!"
Jiang Linyuan smiled and said, "This diary records some interesting stories from my youth. It seems that I met your master Taixuan at this age."
Chen Wan suppressed his laughter: "Oh?"
"Taixuan is very powerful. I can still vividly remember the scene of him killing the red ghost in the mass grave in seconds. He--" Jiang Linyuan stopped talking abruptly, as if he suddenly realized something and looked at Shen Wan with shock on his face.
"Tai Xuan...wait?"
"Could it be... no way?"
Jiang Linyuan didn't dare to think about it any further, but once the thought came out, he couldn't control it at all.
He took a deep breath and asked solemnly: “Taixuan, is it you, Mr. Shen?”
Shen Wan smiled and nodded: "It's me, it's surprising, I'm surprised too."
Jiang Linyuan was shocked.
"Even I didn't expect that my master Tai Xuan is actually me." Chen Wan said: "Everything has its own destiny. The senior sent me to Xuanji Pavilion, and I comprehended the Taoism, which made me Tai Xuan. Then he went back to the past through the backtracking technique and passed on this Taoism to me, completing the closed loop."
"I am Taixuan, and also Chen Wan."
Jiang Linyuan sighed: "You are really destined to be born, Chen Wan, you will eventually have great fortune."
…
As the Hundred Years Agreement came earlier, the resentment of the God of War was gradually gathering, and strange black fog was slowly gathering over the skies of various Chinese cities.
Ordinary people cannot see it, but those who are from the Xuanmen sect who see it are all terrified.
During this period, demons and monsters appeared more frequently, disturbing the world.
The various sects of the Xuanmen sect intensify patrols every day to suppress demons, eliminate evil spirits and capture evil spirits.
Shen Wan had been secretly watching the actions of Tu Zhenyue and the others.
She found that they had calmed down and no one was going to unblock them.
"Something's wrong. Something's very wrong."
Logically, Tu Zhenyue and the others should speed up the process to break the seal, but suddenly all their actions stopped, as if they had given up on breaking the seal.
Shen Wan knew that Jiuli Academy, headed by Tu Zhenyue, would never give up on reviving the God of War.
They must be doing something in secret that she doesn't know about.
Chen Wan went to several sealed places overnight and inspected the dragon veins, but found no clues.
The calmer she was, the more uneasy she felt.
Until dawn, Chen Wan stood on the mountain and overlooked the city at the foot of the mountain.
I saw a black fog gathering above the city. It was karma filled with strong resentment coming from the six realms of sentient beings.
"Karma... the six realms of sentient beings..."
Chen Wan's expression suddenly darkened, and he immediately summoned the five ghosts back to Office 749.
She sent messages to all the Xuanmen sects, asking them to come here for a meeting.
The leaders of various factions gathered at the 749 office and looked at Shen Wan in confusion, not knowing what she was up to.
Shen Wan first confessed that Jiuli Academy was resurrecting the God of War Chi You.
Everyone was shocked after hearing this.
"The legendary God of War Chi You is fierce and warlike, and he has been sealed for so long. If he wakes up, China will be in danger!"
"No wonder demons and monsters have appeared all over China recently. They must be affected by the grudge of the God of War!"
“Fellow Daoist Shen, if you have any ideas, please speak up!”
"We are at your service!"
Shen Wan said in a deep voice: "The biggest crisis at hand is not the revival of the God of War."
Elder Cang was stunned: "If it's not the God of War reviving, then what is it?"
Taoist Priest Wang was surprised and said, "Could it be those demons and ghosts that have become active? Each sect has already increased its manpower to suppress the evil. So far, it has not gotten out of control and can be subdued."
Chen Wan said bluntly: "You can see the karma condensing above every city, and the karma is mixed with the resentment of the God of War. This is the Great Sacrifice of All Souls."
"What is the Great Sacrifice of All Souls?"
"Hen? I've never heard of it, but it doesn't sound like a good thing."
Everyone was confused.
Only Jiang Linyuan's face changed drastically, and he said with a pale face: "The Ten Thousand Spirits Sacrifice Formation... Tu Zhenyue is crazy, he is absolutely crazy!"
"Senior Jiang, do you know what this is?" asked Taoist Wang.
Jiang Linyuan said with a pale face: "The Great Array of Sacrificing All Souls, as the name suggests, is to sacrifice thousands of lives as blood in order to revive the God of War... Any city with condensed karma is already in the array. Once the great battle of sacrificing lives begins, all souls will be annihilated and no one will survive."
