C101 (1/2)
If I had Master's powerful strength, then perhaps all of this wouldn't have happened, and I wouldn't have been able to watch my loved ones die tragically in front of me.
At this moment, my face was covered in blood … I told myself not to faint, I opened my eyes wide and looked at everything that was happening, I wanted to engrave everything that was happening right in my mind, deeply imprinted it into my heart. If I, Shangguan Tianluo, could walk out of here alive, then I would definitely become extremely powerful, and one day, I would hold my Three Revolutions Thousand Lightning Strikes the Jujube Sword, and slaughter my way into this evil place, causing this place to be dyed with blood, to avenge my Eldest Brother and cousin.
I swore silently in my heart that I would take revenge.
A blood debt would be repaid in blood!
I fell limply to the ground and saw the hook-nosed Branch Lord together with a group of people in black robes kneeling in front of the altar. They were incomparably respectful as they kowtowed towards the altar.
For a good while.
Only then did the hawk-nosed man lead the black-robed men to stand up once more.
After they stood up, they started to form a circle, each of them holding something that looked like a walking stick, and chanting something loudly like a spell. It was like an incantation or a magic spell, and it kept on going on and on, sometimes high and strong, sometimes strong and sometimes powerful, sometimes soft and gentle. As they chanted these incantations, I seemed to sense that the surrounding area was going through an extremely scary fluctuation, and between heaven and earth, from all directions, terrifying powers were continuously surging towards the direction of the pool of blood.
This power was too terrifying. In the face of this power, I was like a speck of dust, like an ant under a human's feet. I was deeply shocked and terrified.
When this frightening and shocking power arrived, everyone in the hall prostrated themselves on the ground and buried their heads deep in their hands. No one, including me, dared to raise their head to withstand this mysterious power.
It was unknown how much time had passed before this surge of energy gradually weakened.
A powerful and resounding voice echoed in my ears. I opened my eyes and looked up, only to see that the hook-nosed old man had suddenly stood up. He raised the magic staff in his hand and shouted, ”Come back …” King, return … We are willing to submit ourselves at your feet and be your subjects, willing to give our lives for you. We have waited for this moment for a long time, for this moment, we have paid a lot of lives just for the birth of a new life, a king who can lead me to glory … ”
Under the gaze of this old man's longing and devout gaze, a large amount of blood immediately gushed out of the huge blood pool, boiling hot and boiling, countless bubbles bubbled out, and then burst apart. Right at this time, the large cauldron suspended above the altar hummed for a while, emitting a blinding blood-red light, and a blood-red light quickly spread down from the cauldron and enveloped the blood pool. The blood in the blood pool continuously churned, and soon after, I saw a miraculous scene, where my younger cousin suddenly emerged from the blood pool.
He was covered in blood as if there was a giant invisible hand supporting him underneath the pool of blood. Then, his bright body floated up into the air, enveloped by the blood-red light, and his blood fell down into the pool of blood. His body slowly started to spin in the air, and the huge cauldron above his head continued to emit buzzing sounds.
