Chapter 416 Sacrificial Ritual (2/2)
”Your path to Dao would not take place on the ground, it would still be the same as when it was in the sky,”

It was the voices of the people of the Chen Village that sang together with the noble witch. The power of faith gathered to form an unexplainable breath of the heaven and earth, and surged into Chen Beidou's body.
The hymn left Chen Jinchan stunned but he also somewhat yearned for it. The trauma from the bear demon attack has faded while Chen Beido's majesticness and prestige was carved deeply in the spirits of every living beings of Mount Zhong.
The sword gleam took one cultivated living being after another as the rain of Mount Zhong turned into the colour of blood. The spirits were grunting and roaring but Chen Beidou was not bothered at all.
The rainwater attacked every corner of Mount Zhong except for two places, Chen Village and the place where Shen Lian was at.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please clickfor visiting.
It was an abode of the immortal excavated from the wall of the mountain. It was rainy outside but extremely dry inside.
”This rain is a 'sacrificial ritual'.” Shen Lian said to Fang Yanying the same way as how Chen Beidou told Chen Jinchan.
Fang Yanying was surprised. Sh said, ”He took all of the cultivated spirit of Mount Zhong as offerings. Is he not afraid of karma?”
”He would feel guilty if it was the life of the masses. But to heaven and earth, these living beings are tumors. They would absorb the qi of vitality of the heaven and earth day and night without fail, and they have never once contributed back.” Shen Lian explained.
It was not Fang Yanying's first time receiving lectures from her uncle-master but she find it hard to accept that view of cultivators were tumors to heaven and earth.
她又道:”师叔,如果山神得了祭祀的力量,岂非更加强大了,那么对你就更不利了.”
She said, ”Uncle-master, wouldn't it be disadvantageous for you if the Mountain God became stronger from the power of the sacrificial ritual?”
”You are right but this was as a mutual acquiescence between us. He asked Chen Jinchan to take the water but it was something beyond Chen Jinchan's ability. But I lent him a helping hand because no matter what circumstances, I want to bring him back to Qing Xuan. As a condition, I should not interfere his 'sacrificial ritual' and that was the difficult puzzle that he gave me.” Shen Lian smiled as if he was not forced to solve this puzzle.
Fang Yanying responded, ”But uncle-master, you have definitely suffered loses here.” The extraction of the waters of Ruoshui has caused Shen Lian a great amount of energy. Moreover, he could not interfere Chen Beidou's sacrificial ritual that aimed to make him stronger. If it was someone else and not Shen Lian, Fang Yanying would have thought that person was out of his mind.
However, the wisdom of her uncle-master was sufficient to cut of all troubles and he was definitely not a fool.
”Chen Beidou needed a stronger force because he wanted to immolate himself. This is his wish and it is not something that I can stop. Moreover, attaining stronger powers in such a short time frame does not necessarily means its a good thing.” Shen Lian replied mercilessly.
”Uncle-master, do you mean that he will be overwhelmed by his power during the battle and would eventually revealed his flaws? Just like the saying of the Daoist master that goes, 'A Daoist would not go far with heavy burdens'?” Fang Yanying responded to Shen Lian after giving some thoughts to the situation.
