Chapter 38: Sacrifice

Qi Shan Hui was in the courtyard deep in the mansion, and when Qi Shan Hui leaked his spiritual power as if he was crazy and did not hesitate to use blood to urge the blood sacrifice soul formation again, the three people in the Xuanwu Xuan were all panicked.

A large array of blood-red runes under his feet lit up, and he quickly transported something from within Su Zhen to here, and in the coffin in the center of the large array, the jade bi in Wan Yin's hand became more and more moist, and Wan Yin's face looked a little brighter.

Zhou Yanyan looked at the faint golden pillar of spiritual light in the direction of Su Zhen, and suddenly dimmed, and he was so anxious that he almost cried: "What should I do......?" Xiao Luo, Xiao Luo!"

Zhou Yan turned his head to look at Xiao Luo, but saw that he was clutching his chest, regardless of his still seriously injured and broken body, the spiritual light around his body flashed brightly and darkly, but his face became more and more ugly.

"Come out—come out!!"

Zhou Yan didn't understand what Xiao Luo was doing, and he was fully supporting Xuanwu Xuan to resist Su Run, who was constantly attacking Chen Ting without being affected in the slightest, but he understood.

The pendant on Xiao Luo's chest.

Kungo knife.

But the current situation is clearly ...... Xiao Luo can't call it out!

Zhou Yan saw that Xiao Luo wanted to do something but didn't succeed, and he couldn't help anything, and Zhou Yan's tears fell from his eyes, but he could only turn around in circles within the scope of Xuanwuxuan, but he couldn't think of any ideas in his mind at all.

At this moment, the pillar of spiritual light in the direction of Su Zhen suddenly lit up a little more, and Zhou Yan didn't have time to rejoice, but in the next moment, it was clearly seen that it was a little brighter, and the light of the formation that dragged the blood sacrifice soul formation to a little bit was slowed down, which could only be regarded as a dying struggle.

At this time, Zhou Yan heard Xiao Luo's shouting in his ears:

"Withdraw the Xuanwu!"

......

Sioux Town Courtyard.

The screams and cries for help were endless, getting louder and louder, and more and more poignant.

Granny Qian remembered that in the courtyard on the left-hand side, there was a young couple living in the town, and when Su Zhen was not sealed, they set up a wonton stall in the town, and both of them were very diligent. Some time ago, the little lady was pregnant, and the young man was so happy that he never let his wife work again, and took on all the work by himself, although he was tired, he laughed silly every day. After the ban on Su Zhen, the young man didn't go out to set up a stall, so he took care of his wife at home.

Just now, she seemed to hear the cry of the little lady and the roar of the young man.

Something happened to them?

The courtyard on the right hand side is for Old Man Li and Mrs. Yuan. Their son and daughter-in-law happened to be absent when Su Zhen was sealed, but their grandson Xiaobao stayed in Su Zhen and was with their old couple. On weekdays, when she goes to the door to chat, she can always see Xiaobao's lively and cute appearance of running around the yard with a windmill made by her grandfather, and she can't help but talk to Mrs. Yuan about her "unfilial" son who is still unwilling to marry and give birth to her grandchildren.

Listening to the cry just now, Xiaobao is in danger?

The house opposite......

Chalet not far away......

Granny Qian's face was a little wooden, but the light in her eyes trembled fiercely.

Standing in the circle drawn by Xue Yuan in the courtyard with his heart all the time, his legs were a little stiff, and it became difficult to lift his steps......

Xue Yun was already unsteady on her feet, staggering to her knees, her eyes staring at the formation cornerstone that had been displaced, but her efforts to maintain the position of the other foundation stones were almost beyond her load, at this time, although she knew that she needed to reset the foundation stone as soon as possible to have the hope of maximizing the ability of the formation to delay this strange big formation again, she was already powerless.

If you only slack the maintenance of other cornerstones for the sake of that one cornerstone, once the foundation stone shifts in many places, the formation will disperse.

Xiao Luo was not there at this time, and no one could explain the speculation and let Xue Yun and Granny Qian in the courtyard know. This strange mountain in Su Zhen said in person, if the large array called the Blood Sacrifice Soul Formation runs smoothly, except for the central area, all the living beings within the formation should be deprived of all their vitality and blood in an instant between breaths, and follow the sacrificial runes of the large array all the way to the coffin in the center to replenish. A monk who has cultivated in his body is first deprived of his spiritual power, and then he is sucked into vitality, which is just a little more than ordinary people who do not practice.

For ordinary people, the process of seizing life should have been extremely fast and short, and before they could react, they were already broken, and they should have been sent to their lives without the slightest pain, and it was impossible to tell whether it was the cruelty or mercy of this great array.

Xue Yun didn't know what this big formation should look like, and she didn't know whether this appearance was considered a formation she was holding at this time, and it still had some effect, but she gritted her teeth and refused to retreat with her instincts.

"Mother-in-law!" Xue Yuan, who was half-kneeling on the ground and already felt the swelling pain in the meridians all over her body, caught a glimpse of a stiff step out of the corner of her eye, walking towards the displaced formation cornerstone she was staring at, and seeing that she was about to step out of the formation core covered by the still able to keep the safe range, Granny Qian's eyes widened and shouted sharply: "What are you doing! Come back quickly!"

Granny Qian's legs were a little unconscious, the needlework basket in her arms had fallen to the ground, but the half-finished shoes were still tightly clutched in her hands, but she didn't stop when she heard Xue Yuan's voice, and still walked out of the circle with steps: "...... That stone...... I...... Mother-in-law will help you put it back...... Mother-in-law remembers the location and makes sure it's not bad at all......"

"Mother-in-law!" Xue Yuan didn't dare to relax the control of the formation, he couldn't move easily at this time, he only felt a headache when he heard Granny Qian's words, and the voice of shouting even overshadowed the terrible screams around him: "Can't go out......!

“...... The old woman is old, and she doesn't have much to live, but she has lived enough. Xiaobao of the Li family is still a child, and the doll in the belly of the little lady over there has not seen her father and mother with her own eyes......"

Because of the stiffness of her legs, Granny Qian couldn't walk fast, but this was only a few steps away, and she still came to the edge in the end.

The moment her feet stepped out of the glowing circle, Xue Yun clearly saw that a faint blood-red mist was forcibly pulled out of her body, and soon disappeared into the blood-red lines on the ground.

"Mother-in-law!

The next moment, something in Granny Qian's arms suddenly lit up, and a thin halo was circulated, which suddenly enveloped her, and the invisible pull force was separated from the halo after she stepped out of the circle.

Not only was Xue Yun surprised when he saw it, but Granny Qian herself was also puzzled.

But this is not the time to dwell on these.

Granny Qian didn't understand these and couldn't see it, but Xue Yun was horrified to find that the aura that lingered around Granny Qian was not enough to really resist the seizure power of the big array, and in the blink of an eye, several gaps had been broken.

"Come back! Mother-in-law! Come back!"

Granny Qian also quickly felt that the stinging pain swept over again, not as strong as the first one, but it was gradually getting worse. Time is running out, she knows.

Her already numb legs trembled again because of the pain, she gritted her teeth and tightened the shoes in her hand a little more, as if she was drawing some strength from them, and staggered towards the formation cornerstone that fell to the ground not far away-

With a "snap", the broken silver bottle was broken after all.

Xue Yun watched Granny Qian fall to the ground, the blood-red mist full of vitality rushed out of her body, although Granny Qian was old but clearly healthy and neat body, the speed visible to the naked eye was sluggish, and the outstretched arm was actually shriveled, revealing the shape of a bone knot, although trembling violently, but still remember-

Turned that cornerstone back into its place.

As the foundation stone of the formation returned to its original position, the magic circle that was always full of spiritual power operated smoothly in an instant, and suddenly burst out with dazzling spiritual light.

It's just that......

Granny Qian fell to the ground, and after the formation was reformed and the speed of Su Zhen's great array to seize life was slowed down a little again, she struggled to carry the suction of the blood-red lines on the ground and turned sideways, looking at Xue Yuan, whose eyes were red and exposed, and her wrists and palms were cracked one after another under the desperate urging force, and she looked embarrassed:

Xue ...... Xue Yatou ......"

Xue Yu opened his mouth, but he was no longer able to speak, and sour tears slipped from the corners of his eyes.

She couldn't relax the formation, especially the formation that required more spiritual power after the foundation stone was returned to its position and operated smoothly. She didn't know how long she could last with little spiritual power left, and she didn't know how big the left and right of this magic circle was, but she didn't dare to stop at all.

She couldn't continue to expand the scope of the center of the magic circle, she couldn't use her strength to further promote the effectiveness of the magic circle, and she couldn't rely on her own strength to stop the operation of Su Zhen's weird big array.

She couldn't even get close to Granny Qian, whose face was getting darker and darker, revealing a dead breath, even half a step.

Granny Qian's face had begun to turn blue, and her wheezing voice became more and more sluggish and hoarse: "...... You guys...... Be...... Monk...... My lord...... Save...... Rescue ...... Doll ......"

Xue Yun trembled all over, his eyes were full of blood, he choked and nodded fiercely, but he couldn't say a word.

Granny Qian's eyes were already a little white, she moved her head slightly to look at the sky above the small courtyard, with a slight smile on her face, and slowly and with difficulty, she raised a hand in a certain direction.

The hand, which had been clutching the half-finished pair of shoes.

The upper of the black ground was stained with sand and dust, and a little cloth was worn out, but Granny Qian, who was so careful before, that even the thread had to be carefully cut, could not see clearly at this time, and the carefully made shoes had lost their clean and upright appearance.

“...... Old...... Geezer...... Zi ......" She trembled and stretched out her arms into the air, as if handing her shoes to someone, and the smile on her face was still a little proud and satisfied: "Hurry up...... Try...... Try ......"

"Mother-in-law!!
