Wizard Immortal

Chapter 232 Bloody Ritual

In the quiet garden, butterflies flutter freely among the flowers, bathed in soft sunlight.

Alone in the garden, looking at the crystal ball that had appeared in his hand, Adir remained silent.

"Unknown information port detected, receive?" With a thought, the prompt from the chip's mechanical interface sounded again in his mind.

After Adir confirmed his choice, a massive flow of information surged into his mind, gradually converging into a fragmented meditation technique in his mental sea.

The opening description of the meditation method features the words "bloody sacrifice" in large characters.

Without a doubt, this is an advanced meditation method, and although it is incomplete, it is still very valuable.

Feeling the information flowing through his mind, Adir couldn't help but sigh: "To produce a high-level meditation technique right off the bat, from the Ten Star School, is truly a grand gesture."

Standing there, recalling what Kumu had said before he left, Adir fell silent.

The bloody sacrificial meditation technique in his hand was left behind by Kumu before he left.

Judging from this meditation method, the other party's sincerity is undoubtedly very high, and their determination is even very strong.

A high-level meditation method, no matter where it is practiced, is enough to be passed down and to create a glorious school of thought.

Even if this is just an incomplete meditation method, containing only the first level, if it gets out, many wizards will probably come to snatch it.

Having paid such a high price, offering a meditation technique in return, Adir could foresee that if he ultimately refused, he would likely face the other party's absolute hostility.

"Is this the aftereffect of the purification agent spreading? It's truly a case of disaster strikes out of nowhere."

Standing there, Adir felt a little self-deprecating, then put away the crystal ball in his hand and looked to the other side.

In the direction he was looking, a faint fluctuation of spiritual energy was emanating from, though faint, it was real.

"Ten Star School..."

Sensing the mental fluctuations coming from afar, Adir's expression remained unchanged. He simply looked up and quietly pondered the news about this force.

Having been in the Emerald World for several months, Adir has gained a fairly good understanding of the world's situation, at least he is no longer as clueless as he was when he first arrived.

The Ten Star School is more of a cult than a school of thought.

In the Emerald World, this force has had a very low profile in recent years, but a thousand years ago, it was quite famous and had done many things that wizards deeply abhorred.

This group is called a cult not only because of the Ten Stars School's fanatical practices, but also because of its blood sacrifice custom.

Ordinary blood sacrifices are one thing, but many fanatical and insane dark wizards do things like slaughtering ordinary people for experiments. Although it is disgusting, it is not to the point that everyone hates it.

However, the blood sacrifice of the Ten Star School is different. This school not only attacks ordinary people, but is even more insane towards wizards. The more powerful and bloodline-rich a wizard is, the more likely they are to become their target, which has offended too many forces.

A thousand years ago, the Ten Stars School launched an attack that not only slaughtered millions of people, but also sacrificed hundreds of official wizards in one go, shocking the entire Emerald World.

For a time, the Ten Star School was called the Ten Star Cult and was condemned by everyone. It quickly faded into obscurity. Although it was not destroyed, it was close to disappearing under the suppression of many forces.

However, judging from the current situation, this Ten Star School probably did not disappear, but quietly went into hiding and even infiltrated other forces.

At least, like Kumu before him, who was ostensibly an elite wizard of Emerald City, was probably actually a member of the Ten Star School.

"Those wizards who were sent to the ruins are probably in grave danger."

Thinking about recent events, Adir suddenly realized something.

"The bloody ritual simulation has ended... After 13,700 simulations and comparisons, the analysis results are as follows..." The notification from the chip's mechanical interface suddenly sounded in his mind.

"The Blood Sacrifice Meditation Method... requires a blood sacrifice to practice, using the power of the blood sacrifice to meditate on the true form of the Blood Demon King in the mind's sea. The stronger the practitioner, the greater the amount of blood sacrifice required... Upon reaching a higher level, it will cause irreversible mutations to the body, with unknown effects..."

"This meditation method is extremely dangerous; it is recommended that you do not practice it."

Standing there, listening to the notification from the chip in his mind, Adir's face immediately darkened: "They actually need the power of blood sacrifice to cultivate, no wonder the Ten Star School is so crazy, to the point that everyone hates them..."

"If I really can't resist practicing this meditation method, once the blood sacrifice begins, even if I originally didn't want to join the Ten Star School, I'm afraid I won't be able to."

Thinking about the end of the chip inspection, Adir murmured to himself.

The power cultivated through meditation has its own unique characteristics. Meditation methods like Blood Sacrifice, which require external assistance to cultivate, often result in power with certain unique properties. Once one becomes tainted by such a method, there is probably no other choice but to join the Ten Star School.

After all, if you've practiced the other person's meditation method, even if you're not one of their people, how would others believe you?

Given the reputation of the Ten Star School, if they were discovered, they would likely face immediate persecution.

Moreover, judging from the way this meditation method is practiced, it is most likely a trap.

"Meditate on the true form of the Blood Demon King in your spiritual sea, lest you be influenced by his power and turn into a complete madman."

Thinking about the contents of the meditation method, Adir sneered.

In the records of ancient wizards, only extremely terrifying beings could be called Demon Kings. According to the wizarding hierarchy, they would need to be at least level five or higher to be called Demon Kings.

Such a terrifying being, let alone meditating on its true form in one's mental sea, even having the slightest connection with it would be an extraordinary matter, triggering all sorts of terrible consequences.

"Even if I didn't already possess the Moon Goddess's Sacrifice, I absolutely cannot practice this meditation method."

Standing still, this thought flashed through Adir's mind.

"However, even if it has hidden dangers, it is still a high-level meditation method, so it is a decent gain."

Looking into the distance, Adir thought to himself, "At least it can be used to enrich the chip's database and prepare for future deductions of meditation techniques."

Thinking of this, he glanced into the distance, then turned around and walked into the house.

Several days passed in the blink of an eye.

One morning, in Emerald City, a piece of terrible news arrived.

More than a month ago, all the wizards sent by Emerald City to the ruins were captured, and no news has come back since.

During this time, Emerald City also sent people to investigate the ruins, only to find that the entrance to the ruins had been forcibly closed, and even the power of several formal wizards could not open it.

The atmosphere in the city immediately became tense.

Quietly staying in his own manor, Adir was not surprised by the news that had spread throughout Emerald City.

He knew in his heart that this matter was very likely the work of the Ten Star School from beginning to end.

Emerald City has likely been heavily infiltrated. Besides Kumu, whom Adir already knows, there should be others who are also informants for the Ten Star School. That's why they were able to issue a summons earlier, gathering the surrounding wizards together to excavate the ruins.

Adir didn't know why they did this, but he had a vague idea about the group of wizards who entered the ruins.

Those wizards, including Fred, have probably all been sacrificed by now.

As he quietly closed his eyes, reflecting on the records of the bloody ritual, Adir thought to himself.

At that moment, the sunlight outside suddenly flickered, and a figure suddenly appeared in the hall, standing in front of Adir.

"The appointed time has come, Adir. It's time for you to make a decision." A familiar voice rang in my ears.

Standing before Adir, Kumu had changed into a loose red robe. His handsome face was adorned with a smile, and he looked at Adir as if he were seeing an old friend.

"So, what's your decision?"

As Kumu looked at Adir, his eyes gradually turned red, and some kind of power emerged from them, carrying a vast spiritual force.

In that instant, his magical power, far exceeding that of a formal wizard, was revealed, indicating that he had already reached the level of a wizard in the metamorphosis stage.

"My decision."

Quietly opening his eyes, Adir looked at Kumu behind him, his expression remaining unchanged even in the face of Kumu's immense power.

"Of course..."
