#773 - Sacrifice
Kshatriya and Maha were also stunned by the scene before them.
"How can this mountain god be so huge? This..." Shali muttered to himself.
However, before they could recover from the shock, another giant ape appeared in their sight.
The giant ape had a huge body and strong limbs, and the ground shook with every step it took.
At this moment, a huge foot suddenly appeared in the sky.
It fell like a mountain, and wherever it went, the sky collapsed and the earth collapsed. The huge impact force caused the surrounding rocks to fly everywhere.
The three were terrified by this sudden change. They knew that this valley was no longer safe.
"Let's go, we can't stay here anymore!" Uro shouted, turned around and prepared to run back.
Kshatriya and Maha also reacted and hurriedly followed Ura.
However, they had not run far when they found that huge rocks from the mountain were rolling down and hitting them like raindrops.
"No, we will be crushed to death if this continues!"
The three of them quickly changed direction and ran towards a more open area.
The surrounding mountains and forests seemed so fragile in the face of this huge force, with trees being uprooted and dust flying everywhere.
They didn't know what was waiting for them ahead, but they had only one thought:
That is to survive and return to the tribe!
In the mountains and forests, the wind was howling, sand and rocks were flying, and the battle between several mountain gods became more and more intense.
The giant wolf, the giant ape, and the other mountain gods were so huge that every collision caused a loud noise like a landslide.
The surrounding trees were uprooted, boulders rolled down, and dust flew all over the sky.
Despite being in the aftermath of this horror, they are not ordinary people.
In this world with extremely rich spiritual energy, their bodies have been tempered for a long time.
It was extraordinary that he managed to withstand the mountain-like pressure and the violent aftermath.
After a while, accompanied by an earth-shaking roar, the mountains and forests returned to silence.
Taking advantage of this gap, the three of them looked at each other, a glimmer of hope flashed in their eyes, and they quickly turned around and ran back.
Just as they were running away desperately, there was a loud bang.
Then a huge blue-gray pillar fell down like Optimus Prime.
A giant elephant with blood at the corner of its mouth suddenly appeared in front of them. Its huge body was like a small mountain, blocking the narrow mountain road.
It said, "Do you know where Shanbao is?"
The three of them were stunned for a moment, with confused looks on their faces.
Uro shouted directly: "Shanbao? We have never heard of it!"
Kshatriya and Maha were also confused and at a loss.
The three were stunned by this sudden change. They could hardly believe what they saw.
At this time, the three suddenly discovered that inside the giant elephant's body,
Something the size of a human head slowly rolled out.
It emitted a strange blood-red light and beat like a heart.
Uro swallowed and said in a trembling voice: "What...what is this?"
Maha took a deep breath, then said calmly: "This is most likely the mountain treasure that the mountain gods are fighting for."
Shali tilted his head slightly: "I think so too."
"You see, this giant elephant survived the battle with other mountain gods, while the other mountain gods died."
"This means that the mountain treasure cannot be anywhere else but inside the mountain."
"It was only because the giant elephant didn't recognize the mountain treasure that it died in front of us and left the mountain treasure to us."
Uro licked his dry lips, his Adam's apple rolled up and down, and he swallowed his saliva:
"Having said that, it's just a heart after all."
"But what kind of heart can survive after leaving the body and maintain such vigorous vitality?"
Maha narrowed his eyes slightly: "No matter what the origin of this mountain treasure is, its power should not be underestimated."
"Now that we have it, we must find a way to figure out its secrets. Maybe we can use it to become an existence comparable to the mountain god."
Chali nodded slightly: "Yes, let's observe this mountain treasure for a while to see if there are any other abnormalities."
So the three of them slowly approached Shanbao with a nervous mood.
Wu Luo walked in front, and when he finally reached Shan Bao,
His outstretched hand paused in the air for a moment before reaching out to Shanbao.
However, just when his fingers were about to touch Shanbao, a violent repulsive force came like a surging wave.
Luo felt a flash before his eyes, and was suddenly thrown back by this force.
Like a shot stone, it fell heavily to the ground.
His body rolled on the ground several times before stopping, and he felt a sharp pain and numbness in his arm.
"Ah!" Uro couldn't help but let out a painful groan. He struggled to stand up, but found that his arms were completely out of control.
When Kshatriya and Maha saw this, their faces changed drastically and they rushed forward to help Ula up.
Shali asked anxiously, "Uro, how are you?"
Uro gritted his teeth, endured the pain, shook his head and said, "I'm fine."
The shali reached out from his waist and slowly pulled out the weapon he carried with him. It was a short blade made of stone.
Then he bent down slightly and leaned forward.
He took a deep breath, his arms trembling slightly, and gently struck Shanbao with the short blade.
There was a crisp "dang" sound, which was clear and abrupt.
Shali's eyes widened instantly, and an expression of disbelief appeared on his face.
He stared at Shanbao, then looked at the short blade in his hand.
There wasn't even a trace left on the surface of the mountain treasure.
Uro gritted his teeth and stood up, with a feeling of unwillingness to admit defeat in his heart.
He gritted his teeth, ignored the pain in his arm, and stepped forward.
Then he opened his arms again and tried to pick up Shanbao.
"This mountain treasure looks like it's only the size of two fists. Is it really impossible to hold it?"
However, when he held Shanbao with both hands and pulled him up,
But he found that no matter how hard he tried, Shanbao seemed to have taken root and did not move at all.
Uro's face flushed red, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
But even so, Shanbao still stayed firmly in place.
"How could this happen? How could something so small be so heavy?"
Uro gasped, a look of shock on his face.
Maha had been watching silently from the side, and saw that both attempts had failed.
He took a few steps forward and stood in front of Shanbao.
He took a deep breath, then opened his mouth and shouted at Shanbao: "Hey! What the hell are you?"
However, Shanbao did not respond to Maha's call.
After Maha shouted a few times, his voice gradually became lower.
"What should we do now? We have no idea about this mountain treasure." There was a hint of fatigue in Uro's voice at this moment.
Shali folded his hands in front of his chest and lowered his head slightly: "Let's think of another way."
"I have an idea." Uro raised his head: "Let's take the prey back first, and then we can come back here to study the mountain treasures."
Kshatriya and Maha looked at each other and nodded slightly.
They knew that this might be the best solution at the moment.
"Okay, let's do it." said Shali.
So the three of them began to pack their luggage, tied up the hunted prey, and prepared to set off on their journey home.
…
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
The mountains and forests are filled with clouds and mist, and humidity is everywhere.
Uro, Shali and Maha have been camping near Shanbao for several days.
In the past few days, they racked their brains and tried various methods.
But it was all in vain, Shanbao remained unmoved and had no obvious reaction.
After a whole day of hard work, Wu Luo was exhausted both physically and mentally, and he felt sleepy like a tide.
He sat not far from Shanbao, his eyelids gradually becoming heavy.
My consciousness started to blur and I was about to fall asleep.
Just then, a light sound of footsteps came from far away.
A wild dog with messy fur suddenly appeared from nowhere.
Its tail was hanging down, and there was greed in its eyes.
Uro was immersed in a state of half-sleep and half-wakefulness, and did not notice the approach of the wild dog at all.
Kshatriya and Maha were sorting out hunting tools not far away at this time. When they noticed the presence of the wild dogs, it was too late to stop them.
The wild dog took advantage of Wu Luo's negligence and rushed to Shan Bao.
He swallowed the mountain treasure that the three men had tried their best to move in one gulp.
"Not good!" Shali yelled, and the tool in his hand fell to the ground.
He and Maha looked at each other, and both rushed towards the wild dog at the same time.
However, everything happened too fast.
As soon as the wild dog swallowed the mountain treasure, its body began to tremble violently.
It let out a painful howl, the sound was shrill and terrifying.
Then, the wild dog's body shrank rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The skin began to crack, and the muscles and bones turned into powder in an instant.
In just a moment, it turned into a pile of bones, with only the fur remaining.
Uro was awakened by this sudden change. He stood up suddenly and asked, "What...what's going on?"
Kshatriya and Maha also stopped and stood there, looking at the pile of bones.
At this moment, the originally quiet Shanbao suddenly flashed with light.
Although it was only a brief moment, it shocked the three of them.
"Shanbao has responded!" Wu Luo said excitedly.
"The power of this mountain treasure is beyond our imagination. We can't try blindly anymore." There was a sense of nervousness in Shali's voice.
Maha also took a breath and said, "Yes, if we continue like this, we might end up like that wild dog."
The three of them knew in their hearts that with their current abilities, they could not understand the treasure of this mountain.
Maha then said, "Let's go back and ask the oldest man in the tribe."
"They have been through a lot, and maybe they know about this mountain treasure."
So they packed their bags and hurriedly left the forest that filled them with fear.
When we returned to the tribe, night had already fallen.
The dim torches flickered in the cold wind, illuminating the dilapidated houses and people of the tribe.
Ula, Kshatriya and Maha went straight to the residence of the oldest man in the tribe.
The old man sat in the simple house, his face full of wrinkles.
Wu Luo and others walked up to the old man respectfully and told him in detail everything they had encountered in the mountains and forests.
The old man listened quietly, without much change in expression on his face.
After they finished speaking, the old man pondered for a moment and then said:
“Most treasures in the world have spirituality.”
“To gain their recognition and power, sacrifice is often required.”
Wu Luo's eyes lit up, and he asked eagerly, "Then do you know how to offer sacrifices to this mountain treasure?"
The old man shook his head slightly and said, "I don't know the specific method, but most treasure sacrifices cannot be separated from blood."
A trace of thought flashed across Shali's eyes, and he remembered the sacrificial activities that the tribe held every year:
"Our tribe performs sacrifices every year, using the blood of prey. Could it be that..."
Before he finished speaking, Maha excitedly took over the conversation: "Yes! Maybe if we sacrifice the blood of prey to this mountain treasure, we can gain its power!"
The three of them looked at each other and instantly understood what to do next.
After they thanked the old man, they left in a hurry.
…
Deep in the mountains and forests, the night is as dark as ink.
Ulla, Shali and Maha carefully set a trap.
As they waited patiently, the howl of a wild boar broke the silence.
The eyes of the three of them lit up instantly, and expressions of surprise appeared on their faces.
They quickly ran towards the trap and saw a huge wild boar trapped in the snow pit.
Then the three of them tied up the wild boar and brought it to Shanbao.
Without any altar or ceremony, Uro simply chopped off the wild boar's head.
With a "puff" sound, blood gushed out and splashed on the ground around Shanbao.
The wild boar let out a scream, its body shook violently, and then it fell to the ground, motionless.
However, Shanbao's light only flashed slightly, and then it returned to calm.
The three of them immediately showed disappointment on their faces, and Uro's smile froze on his face.
"How could this happen?" Uro muttered to himself, with a hint of loss in his voice.
Chali frowned slightly: "Maybe the sacrifice is not enough, or the method of sacrifice is wrong." He said with a hint of uncertainty in his tone.
Maha also nodded: "Then let's continue to catch prey."
Then the three of them took action again, searching for prey everywhere.
They were busy until almost dawn when they finally discovered a few hares and pheasants.
During the day, the three men became bolder and caught some larger prey.
Then they hurried back to where Shanbao was with the prey, and placed the blood and corpses of the hare and pheasant in front of Shanbao.
The blood slowly flowed along the ground, blending with the previous bloodstains.
The blood-red light of Shanbao also began to flicker rhythmically. (End of this chapter)
