Chapter 1686: Sacrificial Offerings (2/2)

The passage became more and more brilliant and magical.

However, the faces of the people who were staring at the passage turned pale.

The fusion of the dead experts’ domain fragments and the unusual lights in the passage supported the Snow Devil’s theory — the Dark Abyss was the sheep pen.

“That...” Mo Heng, the grand elder, hesitated for a moment, then said, “your master knows the Dark Abyss quiet well. He had a wild guess.”

“What wild guess?” Fan Tianze asked in surprise.

The Snow Devil, Dylan, and many experts of the Doomed Star Sea fixed their eyes on him.

Everyone knew that Mo Heng’s following words might be the reason for the three outsider races’ abnormal movements.

“He said there was more than one entrance to the Dark Abyss,” Mo Heng said as he no longer hid the secret. “Some entrances are doomed to be dead ends, while others give those who enter a chance to survive. The entrances that are dead ends are easy to find, well-lit, and seemingly without many dangers.

“Those entrances are absolutely not like the one below, where there are countless devil plants and spirit plants that feed on intruders.

“Those usually look bright and safe, but once you step into it, you’ll die beyond the shadow of a doubt.

“He said that numerous top experts of the three worlds have died in those entrances, but none of them even made it through the ‘gate’ to the Dark Abyss.”

After a pause, he added, “By contrast, the entrances that give those who enter a chance to survive and hold numerous wonders usually look very dangerous, and are guarded by unusual things.

“For example, all those Heavenly Demonsbanes, Ghost Grass, and Spectre Trees are the unusual things guarding the entrance in front of us. If you want to enter the Dark Abyss through it, you’ll need a large number of sacrificial offerings.

“Only through blood sacrifices can one clear the entrance and open the so-called ‘gate.’

“The blood sacrifices either require many living beings, or many experts’ bodies and domain fragments. The stronger the experts, the better.

“Was that clear?”

Fan Tianze of the Heaven Span Pavilion stroked his nose and said in a grim voice, “Yes. We are the sacrificial offerings for the blood sacrifice! It’s like the phenomenon where outsiders or Ancientspirits threw sacrificial offerings into a deep sea or divine mountains to worship their ancestors in ancient times. Now, we are being used as sacrificial offerings by the three outsider races to make a blood sacrifice for the entrance to the Dark Abyss to open up.”

Fan Tianze’s sword intent soared through the heavens as infinite fury burned in his eyes.

However, most people’s expressions flickered with fear.

Ye Wenhan sighed. “If Qin Yao’s guess is true, we might be the sacrificial offerings this time. Most of the time, living sacrificial offerings are better than dead ones. If they fall into the darkness alive before their fleshly bodies are torn apart and their souls are eliminated, that should achieve the best effect.”

“Sacrificial offerings, sacrificial offerings...” Nie Tian murmured as he stared at the bright passage and kept recalling the picture where Dong Li had entered. “Has she become a sacrificial offering too?”

Like Fan Tianze, he felt an uncontrollable outburst of rage, and an unwillingness to yield.

His heart seemed to beat violently with rage. “They consider us to be sacrificial offerings, and want to knock at the gates of the Dark Abyss with our deaths!”

“Nie Tian, calm down,” Mo Heng exclaimed softly. “Grand Monarch Soul Capturer of the Netherspirits probably didn’t join this operation because he had to deal with the Chaos Behemoth. But with Grand Monarch Heaven Devil and Grand Monarch Bone Piercer around, it’ll be very hard for us to win this battle. What’s more, we’re in the Domain of Shadow Devil of the Void World, which is their territory.”

“Grand elder, what shall we do?” Nie Tian asked.

Mo Heng looked at Dylan and the Snow Devil and said, “You… should have a way to communicate with the people in the Doomed Star Sea. At this point, if we can’t retreat to the Doomed Star Sea, then we need them to try their best. The other kingpins and Qin Yao must show up quickly so we can have a chance to live.”

Dylan shook his head and said with a wry smile, “We tried immediately after Grand Monarch Hell Demon had that incident. It was useless. None of our soul messages and soul strands can get through.”
