Chapter 1687: A Cruel Sacrifice (2/2)

Hou Chulan of the wood element sect sent out a strand of wood power, trying to save a Seaspirit girl.

BANG!

The green power exploded before Hou Chulan let out a moan and her mouth was stained with blood.

The Seaspirit girl, who had opened her beautiful eyes with a pleading look, still fell into the gorgeous passage and was instantly reduced to a cloud of blood mist.

“Ahem!” Feng Beiluo of the Heavenly Corpse Sect coughed violently to attract everyone’s attention.

When everyone looked at him, he said in an extremely cruel air, “Everyone, first, we’re not strong enough to save those Seaspirits, Moonspirits, and members of the other minor races. Second, the wisest thing to do is just watch them… go in one by one. If what master said is true and the entrance to this Dark Abyss requires sacrificial offerings, then...

“It needs a certain number of sacrificial offerings. Maybe when their deaths reach a certain number and its need for offerings is met, it’ll be much safer for us to enter.”

A helpless expression appeared on his face as he continued, “With our current strength, we can’t possibly fight the three outsider races. What we can see from the Space Boundaries Crystal is that almost all the powerful experts of the three outsider races have come for us. Master can’t come. Even if he can, he might not be able to get all of us out of the Void World.

“So perhaps we ought to think about how to get through the gate at the end of this entrance to the Dark Abyss.”

Hearing his words, everyone was silent.

If they really had no choice, and they had to go through the terrifying passage with streaks of light and try to enter the darkness, would it be much safer for them to go when the Seaspirits and Moonspirits died out, and there were sufficient sacrificial offerings?

Everyone had their own selfish motives.

Thinking that the deaths of the outsider races like the Seaspirits and Moonspirits might be able to help them and reduce their risks, everyone hesitated.

Then, they watched in silence as the Seaspirits and Moonspirits fell from the bridge into the Dark Abyss.

Anyway, they didn’t know them. Anyway, they were the outsiders from the Void World. Anyway, they didn’t have friendly relations with them. Maybe they had even been forced by the three outsider races to help them slaughter humans before...

They comforted themselves in this way.

Just then, the eyes of Mu Biqiong of the Bliss Mountain Sect burst forth with unusual light that didn’t seem to belong to a human as she said, “I, I can go down. I have a feeling that I can make it!”

Under everyone’s startled gazes, her graceful figure suddenly fell into the passage.

The uncanny coexisting flowers suddenly appeared in the depths of her eyes.

Without stirring up any changes or activating any dazzling attacks, she fell lightly into the dark land and merged into the darkness very smoothly.

Then, a Heavenly Demonsbane manifested between Hua Mu’s eyebrows. “So can I.”

Like Mu Biqiong, he also fell through the passage into the dark land with ease, without being attacked by a single streak of light.

At the same time as they fell, a dozen Moonspirits and Seaspirits at the eighth and ninth grades exploded and died in the passage.

Dong Li, Grand Monarch Hell Demon, Hua Mu, and Mu Biqiong...

Dong Li, who had been violently attacked, had succeeded in crossing the passage and descending into the darkness with the help of the Dark Aureole.

Grand Monarch Hell Demon’s fleshly body had exploded, but his soul hadn’t disappeared. He had also fallen into the darkness, and would have the chance at condensing his body again.

Hua Mu and Mu Biqiong hadn’t encountered any danger.

A number of lucky Moonspirits and Seaspirits also made it underground.

This meant that falling through the passage wasn’t completely terrible, and there was still a chance to survive.

However, if they fought Grand Monarch Heaven Devil and Grand Monarch Bone Piercer, there would be no chance at all.

As everyone pondered, all of the Seaspirits, Moonspirits, and members of the other outsider races were thrown into the passage, most of whom died.

A cold, drifting voice echoed from afar. “Now it’s your turn. You should have figured out the truth by now, but let me make it clear. Opening the ‘gate’ requires a certain number of sacrificial offerings. When the number is met, those who enter the passage after that will be safe.

“We have no idea as to how many have to die to meet the number.”

“Perhaps you can drive some of your own men into it first. When your followers are no longer attacked, that means the sacrificial offerings are enough, and you can go straight to the Dark Abyss, the place you’ve been dreaming of, to seek its fortune.”

The cold voice was very bewitching, telling everyone vaguely that they could kill each other and fight for a chance at survival.
