Chapter 4760: Sacrifice to the Gods
Luo family!"Luo Lingxiao frowned and said, "What do you mean""In this chaotic world, only someone as cowardly and weak as you is fit to lead your Luo family, continuing to cower within the Inverse De...Heaven and earth bless me, my destiny is fulfilled for eternity!
This is a saying that circulates in the Zhenyu Realm. It roughly means that powerful cultivators who have reached a certain level of cultivation, as long as they gently touch the head of an ordinary person, can make that person become a cultivator with formidable power within a short period of time.
Even, one can achieve immortality!
And the reason why it's said to be a short time is because when this great being touches the heads of mortals, they are actually bringing them into a place where time does not pass.
There, even if you had lived for thousands or millions of years, in reality it would only have been a few breaths or moments.
Although the saying "blood is thicker than water" is widely known, even among many cultivators from various realms, the more powerful individuals tend to dismiss it as a mere story or legend, refusing to believe it at all.
Only those who are just starting out on the path of cultivation will be obsessed with this phrase.
Longing to meet a powerful being someday who could touch my head and make me invincible overnight.
The reason is simple: the stronger someone is, the more they realize that achieving this is simply impossible and unrealistic.
While many powerful beings can halt time, even emperors can only do so for a limited duration.
Don't even talk about thousands or millions of years, even ten days and half a month is impossible.
Just like Ginger Cloud's skill, 'Set the Sea in Calm,' it can only hold something for a fleeting moment.
If Jiang Yun wanted to make time stand still for more than dozens of breaths, he would definitely directly exhaust all his cultivation and die.
However, at this moment, after seeing this world frozen in time, Xue Wu Chang couldn't help but think of this saying, and even more so, he thought that Dongfang Bo was the kind of great being that existed in legends!
He lightly stroked the top of Jiang Yun's head, and then brought Jiang Yun into this world where time had stopped.
Although Jiang Yun is not an ordinary person, if he were here, someone could guide him, allowing his strength to increase. When Jiang Yun left this place, the outside world would have only passed a few breaths of time, wouldn't that prove the saying "Fú Dǐng Cháng Shēng"!
"Impossible, impossible!"
After a moment of contemplation, Xue Wu commonly used his strength to shake his head, denying his own thoughts. "If Dong Fang Bo truly could achieve immortality, would he appear in this small gathering place How could he be just Jiang Yun's senior brother!"
Even the Emperor of the Nine Clans, compared to him, is probably far inferior!
Just as Xue Wu Chang was comforting himself, Dong Fang Bo's voice rang out again in Jiang Yun's ear: "Lao Si, here, is the past!"
"It was one day when we were practicing on Mount Cang in the past!"
Ginger Cloud's body trembled violently, she suddenly raised her head and looked towards the direction where Dongfang Bo's voice came from.
The next moment, Jiang Yun strode forward and appeared before Dongfang Bo.
"Sit down!"
Dongfang Boshi gestured to Jiang Yun sitting across from him, a smile playing on his lips as he spread open his palm. "Simply put, I brought you back to a specific day in the past and halted the passage of time for that day."
This way, I'll have enough time to guide your cultivation, and it'll also be a way for Master and me, this incompetent senior brother, to make amends for our shortcomings towards you.
This sentence made all the shock and confusion in Jiang Yun's heart vanish instantly.
No matter how heaven-defying his strength is, or what he has done to himself, he will always be his own senior brother!
This point has never changed!
Therefore, Gingercloud did not press further about the changes in Dongfang Bo's strength. Instead, as if facing a demon lord, he displayed all the treasures on his body without reservation.
After Dongfang Bo glanced at these magical treasures, he reached out his hand, and a magical treasure floated into his hand.
Heavenly Altar!
Ginger naturally understood why Big Brother had taken this artifact first. He had once been a member of the clan for a period of time!
Even the destruction of the tribe is deeply connected to him.
Of course, this clan of sacrificial practitioners refers only to those within the Desolate Domain.
Dong Fangbo reached out and gently drew his hand across the celestial altar. A complex expression finally flickered across his face, which had always been as still as ancient well water. "This sacred artifact, and the Nine Rites Heavenly Technique your master taught you, you haven't used them in a long time, have you"
Ginger nodded.
Since fusing with the Samsara Tree and finding my ninety-nine incarnations, I have never used the Nine Rituals of Heaven again.
Because the functions of Samsara and the Nine Rites Celestial Technique are similar, and their effects cannot be superimposed.
Furthermore, he controls the cycle of reincarnation by wielding the power of his own reincarnation avatars.
After use, at most it will just drain your strength, and it won't leave any lasting consequences on yourself.
And the Nine Sacrificial Heavens Art, however, requires one to use something as a sacrifice and offer it to Heaven in order to gain power.
Once the sacrifice is made, the offering will disappear.
Moreover, as one's own strength grows ever greater, there is no realm or even heaven within this world that could bear the weight of one's sacrifice, nor lend one power.
Therefore, the Nine Sacrifices Heaven Art has become somewhat underwhelming.
Dongfang Bode nodded and said: "In fact, whether it's you, or me back then, including the master, none of us truly understand the Nine Sacrifices Heavenly Technique and this celestial altar!"
"The altar is not used to worship heaven and earth, but to worship deities and seek their protection."
Although I don't know if deities exist, this heavenly altar and the Nine Heavens Ritual Technique have allowed my strength to increase in a short period. It's merely a small improvement though.
Its true purpose is to summon a powerful being, akin to a deity, to protect you!
Now, let me demonstrate this for you. You can experience it firsthand.
Dong Fang Bo reached out and took the Heavenly Altar, his voice a low rumble. But the words that left his lips were no longer the familiar tongue, replaced by an alien language that Jiang Yun couldn't understand.
This language is verbose and cumbersome, with extreme pitch fluctuations that make it sound like singing.
Meanwhile, as he spoke, Dongfang Bo reached out his hand and grasped the air, throwing it towards the heavenly altar.
Though seemingly holding nothing in his hand, Jiang Yun could sense that the eldest brother's grasp was firmly on time itself.
With the power of time, as a sacrifice, offered to the gods!
Buzz buzz buzz!
On the altar, the nine cylindrical stone pillars, as time's power seeped into them, gradually emanated a light that grew increasingly intense. The radiance was so powerful that Jiang Yun had to close his eyes to shield himself from its glare.
And at that moment, Jiang Yun suddenly felt his divine consciousness also plunged into the Heavenly Altar. There seemed to be a connection established between him and the altar.
Therefore, one could faintly see, in the very center of the altar, a constantly rotating, almost transparent vortex.
Ginger Cloud knew that whirlpool was formed by the power of time.
From the depths of that vortex, there was a faint trace of breath emanating.
As if, that whirlpool, is a door.
Behind the door, lay a world completely unknown to Jiang Yun.
Although Ginger Cloud didn't know what that world was like, there was one thing Ginger Cloud could be certain of: there were strong individuals in that world whose power far exceeded their own.
Because the wisps of energy emanating from that vortex, if not contained within the Heavenly Altar, would easily shatter this world upon their emergence.
Not only Ginger Cloud, but even Blood Eternal also felt these auras.
However, compared to Jiang Yun, he seemed much calmer at the moment.
He also had some understanding of the true use of the Altar of Heaven and Earth, or rather, the true meaning of the sacrificial ceremony.
And the wisps of aura emanating from the vortex, though unbearable to Ginger Cloud, were within his capacity to endure.
However, immediately following that, Dong Fang Bo spoke again, continuously, still in that strange language, uttering another set of words.
"Boom boom boom!"
Every byte Dongfang Bo spat out would cause the altar of heaven and earth to swell in size, increasing the aura emanating from the vortex by a fewfold.
When Dongfang Bo finished speaking, Xue WuChang's composure vanished from his face.
Therefore, the aura emanating from the vortex at this moment is even inferior to that of his prime.
And he, although he couldn't understand the language either, knew that now was the time for the three sacrifices to heaven at the altar of heaven and earth!
The aura of the strong communicated by the Three Sacrifices to Heaven was so terrifying. If nine sacrifices were truly performed, what kind of terrifying existence would appear in the vortex!to pass throughJust then, Jiebei suddenly exclaimed in surprise, "Oh my, not bad at all! You actually have such sharp insight. Pass the test and stand behind me!"As the words left Jie Bei's lips, a mi...
