Chapter 445: Blood Sacrifice
Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations
Dancing Country.
This country laid to the West of Chinese Country and was the second most powerful country in Middle Continent. The common religion of the country prayed to the God of Brahma.
Unfortunately, at the arrival of the third occurrence, there were no signs of the awakening of the God of Brahma. Instead, there were a few disciples of Brahma who had cultivated special abilities of their own, leading the lives with the motto of 'Everyone can be Brahma'. With that, they were making preparations to become the God of Brahma themselves.
However, before they could reach that stage, the world had already started to experiences disasters all around. Natural disasters and waves of attack from wild beasts were enough to wipe out almost 90% of the population. With the reduction in the number of believers, the act of becoming the God of Brahma became a joke.
"The people of Dancing Country are really careless. This is an actual array eye and yet, they've polluted it with the corpses of 10,000 people!"
From the air above a bay, Fang Yuan slowly appeared and shook his head as he witnessed the numerous corpses lying around. "Although the array eye requires blood sacrifice, it's not in this form..."
He slowly descended and started to investigate the breadth of the earth in the area.
"Mmm... Xing Hezi's initial preparations were rather good. This array eye is extremely suitable and the breadth of the earth here is thick and concentrated..."
A fiery glow appeared in Fang Yuan's eyes and with that, he had already peered through the earth and was observing the centre of the eye.
"With water, the Earth will be formed... This place is even more suitable to cast the 6 Extremes Earth Shattering Array!"
Without another thought, he released his invisible power of the arena, allowing it to seep through the earth. With that, he was able to slightly alter the flow of energy within the earth. In perfecting the array eye, he had also smuggled something of his own into it.
"Bloop! Bloop!"
Corpses floating in the nearby river started to bubble. A demonic-like alligator that was 10 metres long floated up to the surface of the river. It had a weird body shape, 8 legs and as it observed Fang Yuan, it remained calm.
"This alligator... The peak of the Murderous Grade? Is this a guardian beast placed here by Xing Hezi and his company?"
Since the alligator did not disturb him, Fang Yuan paid no attention to it. He crossed his legs and sat in mid-air as he increased the flow of energy into the earth.
It was harder to alter the design of the array eye than to simply destroy it.
The good thing was that to Fang Yuan, it was only a small problem.
After a white, Fang Yuan's face started to twitch as he suddenly gazed to the side. "Who's that? How dare you peep at me?"
"Rumble!"
Fang Yuan had limitless powers and with a single thought, the earth beneath him split and a huge eye made of rock flew out.
This eye was as brown as soil and seemed as though it was being carved by a single piece of rock, making it look mysterious.
However, Fang Yuan could detect a certain spiritual will coming from it. Furthermore, it had the spiritual aura of life in it.
"How can you detect me! This is impossible!"
The spiritual will exclaimed and started to go crazy. "You are just a mere highly skilled person in the Divine Returning Grade. How can you detect my Thousand Rock Eye? You must have some secrets!"
"Id*ot!"
Fang Yuan's reply to him was unforgiving streaks of lightning.
"Kacha!"
The skies gave way, unleashing purples streaks of lightning which struck onto the eye without mercy.
The eye exclaimed and cracks started to form on its surface. "You cannot kill me!"
The spiritual will coming from the eye was panicking. "My actual body will look for you to seek revenge! Furthermore... I am also a member of the Hidden Cultivators Sect and this is just a routine surveillance!"
"The Hidden Cultivators Sect?"
Hearing this name which struck fear in Xi Menjian's heart, Fang Yuan snickered. "Why didn't Xing Hezi mention about you to me?"
"Why should we let you know about the Hidden Cultivators Sect's secret?"
The rock eye relentlessly countered the argument and Fang Yuan could guess that this person must be a person of status within the Hidden Cultivators Sect and could be a leader of sorts.
"Is that so? It could be that you are too scared of me..."
Fang Yuan smiled. "For instance... your physical body is too severely damaged or you are not yet fully awaken and only have a consciousness right now, is that so?"
"So what if that's true?"
The rock eye realised that it could no longer hide itself after all that had happened and decided to give up. "Although my physical body is still asleep, it will surely be able to awaken. You are a member of the Hidden Cultivators Sect as well you have been doing your job. I have seen that you have been focusing on repairing the array and I now formally recognise you as one of us."
"I never need any recognition from anybody for the things that I do!"
Fang Yuan's gaze turned cold. "Furthermore... I hate people who spy on me!"
"This is not good!"
Witnessing Fang Yuan's attitude, the rock eye started to scream as though it was attempting to activate a certain spell to leave.
No matter how fast he was, Fang Yuan was quicker.
"Bang!"
Fang Yuan took a small step forward and struck his fist out. Immediately, the rock eye crumbled into many pieces.
"Ah... you!"
A vengeful voice was heard from the rock which slowly faded away.
'If I don't give him an excuse, how can I deal with him in the open?'
Fang Yuan gave a sinister smile. "It's your misfortune for you to meet me today."
...
"Ah..."
Just as the rock eye was crumbling, within a prosperous land, the mountains started to shake and cracks were forming.
"Roar! Roar!"
A deep grumble was heard from underground.
"I can feel that part of my magical clone has disappeared!"
Within the cracks, an infuriated voice started to roar. "Who dares to destroy my magical clone, you must be seeking death!"
...
In the Golden Eagle Federation.
Within one of the cities along the river, flames broke out as marine beasts and land beasts were gathered together, appearing submissive to a long and blue silhouette in the middle of the river.
The entire city had already turned into a war zone filled with blood and corpses everywhere.
Thousands of corpses were piled up into a small dark hill and red blood oozed down from the hill. There was a foul and nauseous stench coming from the mess in the city.
"This is enough... A blood sacrifice of such a scale should be enough to lay the foundation for one of the array eyes..."
Beside the blue dragon, a rock eye quipped with satisfaction but suddenly, its voice changed.
"Kacha!"
On the surface of the rock eye, cracks began to appear and streaks of blood filled the cracks.
The rock eye was bleeding!
"What's happening to you?"
The Sea Dragon King turned around and glared at the rock eye.
"Nothing much, just one of the magical clones being destroyed!"
The rock eye shook a little before stabilising. "In fact... If you are willing to, the array masters of the Hidden Cultivators Sect will very willingly help you!"
"It's alright. Compared to you guys, I trust my species more!"
The Sea Dragon King curled his body up and had a mocking look in his eyes. "Even if the quality of our spiritual eye is unable to meet the expectations, killing more humans and sacrificing them will do the trick."
"Very well!"
The rock eye did not seem to have any objections against such a merciless ferocious beast who had no regard for human life. Instead, it was encouraging the dragon. "In the alliance at the east, Farquhar has already initiated Operation Grabstar. The power of the Flashing Words and Stars Array is also sufficient. With the 3 array eyes of the 3 big continents in place, our plan is halfway done. I'll still have to trouble you to activate the one within the ocean, brother."
"It's a small thing!"
The Sea Dragon King shook his head. "Even if we activate these arrays, we still need to let them run for another 10 years. We still have to guard against those who would try to disrupt them!"
"Haha, don't worry about this, Brother Dragon!"
The rock eye's spiritual will sounded happy. "With the completion of the array eyes, the array would constantly absorb natural energy from the surroundings and come together as one, making it almost impossible to destroy... As long as we can sustain it for a certain period of time, as long as all the array eyes on the earth are activated, these array eyes will then be able to restore itself even after destruction. It will still be able to work if more than half of it remains and will be immune to attacks from humans!"
"This is great!"
Before the Sea Dragon King could think of what do say next, he raised his head up and roared. "Roar! Roar!"
The weather started to change. Although the Sea Dragon King was only a water dragon, with its current abilities, even a single roar would be able to make all the beasts in land and water submit to it.
"This is..."
The rock eye was stunned and as it gazed towards the sky, it quickly burrowed underground and disappeared.
"It's really quick... A human indeed!"
Seeing this, the Sea Dragon King raised its head up proudly as it attempted to display its might.
"Whoosh! Whoosh!"
Without doing anything, the water in the river started to pick up and rise, creating tsunami waves of 10 metres in height and submerging the entire city in it.
No, it was not accurate to say that it was submerging the city.
To put things into perspective, the Sea Dragon King had manipulated the water to protect the array eye firmly.
"Bang! Bang!"
In the next moment, numerous nuclear bombs appeared in the sky, landing on where the city once was and flames started to break out.
"Rumble!"
From the explosion, even the air in the vicinity shook.
However, no matter how powerful the explosion of the nuclear bomb might be, under the protection of the Sea Dragon King, the entire array eye was only slightly chipped and was not severely damaged.
"This is... the lack of creativity!"
The Sea Dragon King started to swim around on the surface of the ocean before spitting out a streak of blue energy.
"Kacha! Kacha!"
In an instant, a layer of white frost started to appear on its body before spreading towards the city, freezing everything within it.
"The ice frozen from my dragon aura will be tougher than steel and will not be easily destroyed... Of course, the foolish people from the Golden Eagle Federation might not even have a clue as to what I am doing."
The Sea Dragon King flew into the air and gazed towards somewhere far.
Not long after, a black dot appeared at the horizon. In a shockingly fast speed, it flew towards the dragon with its black and white wings. It had the appearance of an angel.
"Every time I see you, I am reminded of the birdman from Blue Star Alliance. You're making me pissed off!"
The Sea Dragon King hollered and his powerful energy wave started to spread out. With the swing of his head, a streak of blue light was shot out.
"Buzz! Buzz!"
Before the Demon Weapon, light and darkness fused together, forming an extremely powerful power of the arena.
The blue streak of light flew into the mix and was being sucked in by a black hole in the middle of the glow. In an instant, it disappeared.
"To speak the truth... I am also pissed of at the other birdmen from federation!"
The Demon Weapon flew forward and a high pitched voice resembling an Oriole was heard, stunning the Sea Dragon King. "Not... Not right, you are different from what you were last time! Who are you exactly?"
"I am still me!"
The pretty face of the Demon Weapon smiled. "I have merely absorbed an external piece of my soul, regaining some memories which I used to have."
"External soul? Is that legend true?"
The Sea Dragon King froze. "That we are not the only world in the entire universe?"
