Chapter 1213: Falling Into A Trap
Where Zong Shou used his World Shocking Blood Eyes to look at was where the Night Demon End Treasure Soul Stabbing Xuan Heart Needle was at.
In the past, there were numerous Saint Realm experts here and one giant wooden ship with several million Night Demon elites guarding this area.
Since the day he arrived in Tianfang World, the needle hadn’t been used.
However today, red clouds circled the area around that area, dyeing it blood red. Several worlds away Zong Shou could clearly sense the bloody stench that spread all about.
Blood sacrifice!
World Burning Blood Eye ability not only allowed him to look past the world barrier, but it also allowed him to magnify the scenes that he saw!
Only to see that in the middle was a giant stone platform that hadn’t been completed. There were numerous different sized alien races that were dragged to the stone platform to have their heads sliced off.
All the vital energy that flowed out was absorbed by the stone platform. The corpse bone and flesh and blood were smashed into meat paste. Layer after layer they laid it out in the cracks at the center to stick those giant stone pieces together.
Zong Shou was stunned, finding what they were doing weird. He thought that they were prepared to use the blood sacrifice technique to strengthen the needle.
However looking at it, he noticed that the blood jade stone platform was the main target of the sacrifice. It looked like it was crafting an artifact and also looked like a sacrifice altar…
Zong Shou searched his memories, but he had no idea at all. However, the people under him were mostly intelligent and experienced.
He spread out his spiritual sense and swept across Tianfang World. Instantly, several streaks of light landed in Juntian Celestial Manor.
Grand Teacher Mingri Xuan, Xufu who had broken free from the shadows of the Qin Emperor, Yexuan who was once the head of Xiaoyao Xuan along with the commander of Tianfang Battle Lieque and Kong Yao all rushed over with a solemn expression.
Apart from that person in the artifact crafting building who was still crafting the Celestial Slaying Gourd.
The first to speak was Lieque, “I heard that Dark World Demon Court has a secret attacking technique known as World Slaying Platform! It was said that one has to use 1,000 different types of intelligent spirits as sacrifice. It required a total of 10,000 each. After it succeeds it will have the strength to break an entire world. In the past, there was a world that resisted the 30 million strong Night Demon army for 30 years and they were unable to conquer it. In the end, the two emperors of the Dark World Demon Court were furious and used the technique. After 108 days, each day they killed a million people, adding 10,000 stones. After those days, the platform was formed. The nine Saint Realm from the Dark World Demon Court was in charge and wiped out a third of the source of the world. The mountains and rivers within shook and 90% of life there was wiped out. There was even an End Realm Saint Venerable whose body was destroyed and soul was in deep slumber. That world had no more strength to resist. After that battle, this technique spread all around. Within 300 years, as long as the Night Demon army attacked, very few people dared to resist.”
The moment he said that, the room was totally silent. Li Xin came from the Cloud Desolate Era and his life was only restricted to the Cloud World. Zong Yuan and Kong Yao were all newcomers and they knew less about the Night Demon methods. When they heard that, their expressions changed and their eyes were filled with shock.
“World Slaying Platform?”
Zong Shou was also surprised, they actually had such a technique? As expected from one of the top twenty powers in this region who had such thick foundations.
If this technique really had the ability to wipe out the world, then this Tianfang World probably wouldn’t be able to hold on.
Mingri Xuan was still really calm and said, “This is true but General Lieque only knows about this part but not about another! That World Slaying Platform has such shocking ability but its consumption isn’t low too. To them, they will lose 10 million troops. Even those nine Saint Realm experts will suffer heavy injuries and won’t be able to fight for 100 years, losing a chance to enter End Realm. Next will be the full 108 days, they have to ensure the platform is not destroyed. This is why they only activated it once.”
Zong Shou looked towards Xufu deep in thought. He was also a Qi Cultivator and spent time at Penglai World. He knew all the outer region powers and was also really intelligent. His suggestions were something he anticipated.
“What I know is similar to General Lieque and Mingri Xuan.”
Xufu smiled, a cold intent appeared in his eyes, “However there might be something the two of you do not know. Three Country Rulers are there and also an End Realm. I don’t know which one of the two emperors it is…”
Zong Shou was shocked and squinted as he looked towards the stone platform once more. Although his World Burning Blood Eyes could shine any place within dozens of worlds, he didn’t notice the arrival of the three Country Rulers.
With Xufu reminding, Zong Sou noticed that there were actually several strong auras hidden within the stone platform.
They were similar to End Realm Saint Venerables but slightly different. He was also still unable to discern the exact location.
Not only those three Country Rulers but even Zong Shou guessed that there were at least two more End Realm God Venerables within the blood cloud.
He thought about it and understood, “Senior wants to say that the Night Demon is not only not trying to hide the World Slaying Platform but is also trying to hype it up. That it is a little weird?”
“How is it weird? They are doing that as they are afraid we aren’t able to know what they are doing!”
Yexuan also thought about something and laughed, “I don’t know about the art of war but I know that it is impossible for them to take down Tianfang World. Even if they lost billions of troops it is still not possible. I think they have to first kill Dari Rulai. However, his Buddhist Country has the strength to fight four Jiedu Ministers alone and 15 million troops for several months and not lose…”
After saying that, the people all understood. Their expressions were different, some were worried, excited, or emotional.
“I was finding it weird, with our arrangements, we can’t lose at all. If the Night Demon Commander has some knowledge, he knows he can’t win, so why delay? So, he has this method to use…”
“This is a trap, to force us such that we have to fight.”
“It seems like they can’t hold on anymore.”
“He, they can’t win by forcefully attacking, so they want to use the World Slaying Platform to force us to battle them?”
“So, what should we do? They have the geographical advantage, so what are the chances of us winning?”
Zong Shou’s brow relaxed. He didn’t expect that the chance to end this battle would come so quickly.
