The rise of the sect: I am the most enduring child in the world of immortality
#945 - Dragon Blood Sacrifice to Heaven and Ghosts
"Brother is here. Brother will always be with you."
When you get better, let's go pick persimmons together, okay?"
Hear Gu Xuan's murmur.
The huge three-headed Sky-Swallowing Python moved slightly, opened its mouth, and a hint of emotional fluctuation flashed in its six upright pupils. It seemed that it wanted to open its lips to say something, but in the end it could only utter an extremely weak breath.
Gu Xuan hurriedly lowered his head and gently put his ear close to the lips of the Three-Headed Sky-Swallowing Python, listening carefully with full concentration.
“Hiss…hiss…”
However, Gu Xuan did not hear the sound of the three-headed Sky-Swallowing Python, but only heard a roar.
The huge three-headed Sky-Swallowing Python was trembling slightly at this moment, but in Gu Xuan's heart, it was like a heavy hammer, hitting Gu Xuan's heart hard, causing his body to tremble violently.
"Qingshu, my brother is always here."
Gu Xuan hugged the huge three-headed Sky-Swallowing Python tightly in his arms. There seemed to be thousands of thoughts intertwined in his heart, and his emotions were complicated and difficult to understand.
At this moment, the breath of the three-headed Sky-Swallowing Python was as weak as a gossamer, and its body was as cold as the water in a thousand-year-old cold pond. The three heads drooped weakly, and its originally smooth scales were now covered with shocking cracks. The bright red blood flowed down the snake's body and slowly soaked into Gu Xuan's clothes.
In the light, Ye Yang's figure gradually became clearer.
His steps were steady and powerful, and every step he took seemed to carry a special rhythm between heaven and earth, which made people feel awe and dare not look directly at him.
This is the pressure from Taoist Yuanshen.
Even though Ye Yang did not make any movements, in the eyes of others, he seemed extraordinary and superior to the surrounding environment.
Ye Yang walked steadily towards Gu Qingshu, his eyes slowly falling on Gu Qingshu's huge and scarred snake.
To be honest, this is the first hall master Ye Yang followed.
But I didn't expect that in such a different world and time, Gu Qingshu would become like this.
As if feeling the tremendous pressure brought by Ye Yang at this moment, the three-headed Sky-Swallowing Python keenly sensed his arrival. Although it was extremely weak, the terrifying aura coming from the Taoist Yuanshen still made her snake body tremble slightly instinctively.
Her three heads were slightly raised, and a complex and indistinguishable light flashed in her snake pupils, which contained both instinctive fear and a struggle to escape from this terrifying aura.
However, his body was too powerless to move at all, and he could only let the fear spread in his heart as his body slowly began to tremble.
Ye Yang looked solemn as he slowly stretched out his hand. A faint, warm golden light appeared on his palm. The light was like the warm spring sun, with a gentle yet powerful force.
He gently placed his hand on Gu Qingshu's snake, and his brows frowned slightly.
At this moment, Ye Yang could clearly feel the violent power in Gu Qingshu's body surging like a wild horse running out of control, as if it would break through her body in the next moment and turn everything into dust.
"He is almost at the Tiangang realm."
Seeing this, Ye Yang frowned slightly, with a hint of surprise in his brows.
As a monk who has come forward step by step.
He naturally knew the difficulty of breaking through among Zifu Zhenren, Jindan Zhenren and Tiangang Zhenren.
At this moment, within Ye Yang's perception.
Gu Qingshu has already reached the peak of the Golden Core realm and is only one step away from the Tiangang realm.
With such cultivation, if he were in an ordinary place, he would be able to dominate the area and become an admired existence.
"The Snake Demon Ancestor has invested too much energy in her..."
Ye Yang muttered to himself in a low voice.
After Gu Qingshu merged with the demon pill of the three-headed Sky-Swallowing Python, she practiced the way of beast in the form of a human. When she disappeared, she was just at the level of a demon beast that had transformed into a pill.
Even compared with ordinary Purple Mansion cultivators, they are inferior.
In the later stages, the cultivation of monsters is much more difficult than that of ordinary humans.
What’s more, this is a special existence that has transformed from a human body to a demon body.
The reason why the other party's cultivation progress is so fast and rapid is probably because the Snake Demon Ancestor must have invested a lot of energy in her.
But success and failure are both due to Xiao He.
At this moment, on the bodies of these three Sky-Swallowing Pythons.
Ye Yang could clearly sense the evil power in Gu Qingshu's body that did not belong to her. It was the evil energy that the Snake Demon Ancestor forcibly infused into her.
Just like a greedy cancer, it eroded her soul bit by bit.
It seemed that the body of this three-headed Sky-Devouring Python was covered with a layer of mysterious colored glaze, like an indestructible shell, completely isolating her from the outside world.
Gu Xuan was extremely anxious and quickly looked up at Ye Yang. Even though he was a cultivator who had practiced for who knows how many years and even though he was the head of a sect, at this moment Gu Xuan's eyes lost their composure and were filled with pleading.
Ye Yang rarely saw such a look in this late bloomer and extremely tenacious old monk.
Just as others rarely see fear, retreat, difficulty and cowardice in his eyes.
unless!
It’s for the people closest to you.
"Ye Yang, please save her! She is my only sister, I really can't watch her..."
There was a slight tremor in Gu Xuan's voice, which was the fear and helplessness about his sister's life disappearing.
Ye Yang nodded gently, his eyes showing calmness and determination.
His palm was still firmly pressed on Gu Qingshu's snake, and the faint golden light began to spread gradually, like a warm halo, gently wrapping Gu Qingshu's entire body.
Having just broken through to the Yuanshen Dao realm, Ye Yang's magic power is much stronger than before.
At this moment, under the infusion of Ye Yang's magic power, the layer of glass-like restriction in Gu Qingshu's body began to tremble slightly under the illumination of golden light, as if it felt threatened and was trying its best to resist the invasion of this force.
Ye Yang's eyes became more and more solemn.
This layer of golden light was laid down by the Snake Demon Ancestor during his lifetime and is of great significance.
Considering the current condition of this three-headed Sky-Swallowing Python, if this restriction were to be forcibly broken, Gu Qingshu's already weak body would probably not be able to withstand it and would collapse in an instant.
But if she doesn't break it, her soul will sooner or later be completely devoured by the evil energy, and there will be no recovery.
In the end, the demon is completely reduced to an irrational beast, or its soul turns into nothingness, leaving only a corpse.
"Little sister, hold on..."
Gu Xuan murmured in a low voice, his voice full of pain and self-blame.
His heart was filled with regret. If he had been strong enough at the beginning, he would not have been separated from his younger sister in that alien demon abyss.
I would not fall into the clutches of the Snake Demon Ancestor and suffer such inhuman torture.
Ye Yang took another deep breath. At this moment, the spiritual power in his body surged wildly. In an instant, the wind and clouds surged all around, and a mist rose. After a while, drops of spiritual liquid formed and soaked into the ground.
And just as Ye Yang was using all his strength to mobilize the power of his soul.
A tremendous force instantly surged into Gu Qingshu's body like a raging torrent.
The gigantic three-headed Sky-Devouring Python suddenly trembled violently, and its three heads let out an extremely painful roar at the same time. The sound seemed to penetrate the soul, telling of unspeakable torture.
Under the impact of the golden light, fine cracks began to appear on the glass-like restriction. The cracks spread rapidly like a spider web, covering the entire surface of the restriction.
"Crack--" With a crisp yet heavy sound, the ban was finally completely broken, turning into countless flickering points of light, and dissipated into the air like dreamy stars.
However, seeing this situation, Ye Yang not only did not feel relieved, but instead felt a sense of worry in his heart.
At this moment, Ye Yang stood beside the three-headed Sky-Swallowing Python, his brows tightly knitted into the shape of the Chinese character "川".
His magic power was continuously transmitted over, and that magic power was like a trickle of water in the mountains, carrying a hint of warmth, trying to repair Gu Qingshu's body's broken meridians like a spider web and her severely damaged soul.
However, the injuries Gu Qingshu suffered were too severe. The evil energy planted in her body by the Snake Demon Ancestor was like a maggot on the tarsal bone, tightly entangled and frantically eroding her remaining vitality.
Even though Ye Yang tried his best to cast spells with the powerful cultivation of the Yuanshen Dao realm, the evil force was still as hard to shake as a rock and difficult to be completely eradicated.
Time passed slowly in silence, and every minute and second seemed extremely long.
Fine beads of sweat gradually appeared on Ye Yang's forehead, sparkling with crystal light under the faint candlelight.
His magical power continued to flow into Gu Qingshu's body like a surging tide, but her breath was still as weak as a candle in the wind and could be extinguished at any time.
Finally, Ye Yang slowly withdrew his hand and let out a long, heavy sigh from his chest.
It can't go on any longer, otherwise the Three-Headed Sky-Swallowing Python won't be able to bear it in its current state.
Gu Xuan had been waiting anxiously by the side. When he saw Ye Yang's expression, his heart suddenly tightened, as if being grasped by an invisible big hand.
He hurried forward and asked with an undisguised tremor in his voice.
"What was the result?"
Gu Xuan's eyes were full of worry about his sister's safety, as if a drowning person was eager to grab the last straw.
Ye Yang was silent for a long time, as if he was considering every word, before he slowly spoke.
"Her injuries are too severe. The evil spirit in her body has been closely entangled with her soul. If it is forcibly expelled, it will probably cause irreparable damage to her foundation. Even with my cultivation and mastery of medical alchemy, I can only temporarily stabilize her injuries, but cannot completely heal them."
Every word was like a heavy hammer, hitting Gu Xuan's heart hard.
Upon hearing this, Gu Xuan's face instantly turned pale as paper, bloodless, as if all the life had been drained from him.
"Even your attainments in the art of making medicine and alchemy are useless? You know, the art of making medicine with water is the most suitable way to heal injuries. Is Qingshu... really hopeless?"
Gu Xuan's voice echoed in the silent room, carrying endless pain and helplessness.
Ye Yang glanced at him, with a complicated light flashing in his eyes.
Then he slowly shook his head and said.
“Even though the water-based alchemy technique has restored my power, I am not a Daluo immortal after all, and it is difficult to bring the dead back to life. In addition, Elder Gu’s injury was not caused overnight.”
"However, if we want to treat her, there is a way. It's just... we need a vital medicinal herb to completely heal her injuries."
These words were like a ray of light in the darkness, rekindling a glimmer of hope in Gu Xuan's heart.
"What medicinal herbs?" Gu Xuan asked hurriedly, his eyes shining again with a desire for his sister to live.
Ye Yang looked solemn and said in a deep voice: "Fresh earth vein dragon blood."
“If there is dragon blood in that earth vein, Elder Gu might be able to use the power of that dragon blood to ascend to heaven instantly, transforming a snake into a dragon. While his injuries are healed, he can also make further progress.”
"Fresh earth dragon blood?"
Gu Xuan was stunned, and the expression on his face froze instantly, and then became even uglier.
Everyone knows about the things in the dragon veins, but no one has ever seen such precious things.
And this dragon blood of the earth vein is the essence of the entire earth vein. It is condensed from the essence of the earth vein over thousands of years and contains endless vitality and tremendous power.
It is said that just one drop of earth dragon blood can bring a person back to life, or even break through the bottleneck of cultivation and achieve a qualitative leap.
However, underground dragon blood is extremely rare and can only be seen once in a thousand years. Even if it is scattered in the world by chance, it will be taken away by hermits to refine magic weapons, and it is impossible for outsiders to touch it.
Not to mention the fresh dragon blood from the earth veins.
"This thing is too rare. It is already a rare treasure, not to mention it is new."
There was a deep sense of powerlessness in Gu Xuan's voice.
Ye Yang nodded and his expression became serious.
"Earth vein dragon blood is indeed rare, not only because it is extremely difficult to obtain, but more importantly because of its rarity."
Ye Yang was silent for a moment, as if thinking about something, and then spoke slowly.
“It’s not that there is no solution at all.”
When he said this, Ye Yang seemed to have thought of something, and a gleam of light appeared in his eyes.
He once went deep into the imperial tomb of the Dayun Dynasty. It was extremely strange inside and the earth energy was rich. It was simply the essence of the territory of the Dayun Dynasty. It was a place with unique advantages and perhaps that thing could be found there.
However, the imperial tomb buried a generation of holy emperors of the Dayun Dynasty. It was extremely strange inside. Even the former Black Sin Peacock King was refined into a sinful bird. The Dayun Dynasty regarded that area as a holy land, making it extremely difficult to obtain.
"As far as I know, the Great Fortune Dynasty holds the 'Heavenly Sacrifice and Ghost Ceremony' every hundred years. I calculated that there are not many years left. Let's mobilize the power of the sect to get some information first."
"Ghost Sacrifice to Heaven?" A glimmer of hope flashed in Gu Xuan's eyes, and that light was like the stars in the night sky.
It is said that this ceremony of offering sacrifices to the gods and ghosts was a grand event in the Dayun Dynasty. After the death of Ren Taxian, the emperor of that Dynasty, it has never been held again.
It is said that the ritual of offering sacrifices to heaven and ghosts is only performed in darkness.
Participants are required to hold a ghost lantern and then enter the fog to illuminate the way forward. They must enter at night and leave during the day. (End of this chapter)
