Chapter 211: Shaman's Sacred Mountain
In the north, hundreds of thousands of miles away from Daqin, the severe cold ruled the land, and there were white snow-capped mountains and forests everywhere.
And deep in the mountains and forests, there is a huge stone statue towering over the earth.
The statue is thousands of feet tall and was carved out of one of the tallest mountains.
This is a hideous stone statue of a demon, with its feet on the ground, its left hand clenched into a fist and hanging low, and its right hand holding a white bone altar with a radius of 100 feet!
The entire stone statue was scarlet, and its body seemed to be covered with a layer of red light, as if it had been smeared with blood.
At the foot of the stone statue was a large lake with a radius of several miles, and there was a layer of dark mist on the surface of the lake, and there was a faint miserable cry, as if endless souls were floating on it.
The entire water of the Great Lake is all viscous and scarlet blood. The stone statue's feet were in the water, and it seemed that it was still absorbing the blood from the lake.
This scarlet demon statue is actually the holy mountain of barbarian shamanism!
When the sun was slowly setting, a procession slowly drove over on the opposite side of the statue of the evil spirit.
Walking in front were hundreds of blood-colored giants about three or four meters tall! Their flesh seemed to be made of blood, and they almost occasionally had no skin, and even faintly saw the thick muscles inside, and a stream of flowing viscous liquid.
They are the guardians of the Shamanic Sanctuary, the Blood Slaves!
Blood slaves are guards and war puppets created by shamanism using sorcery. From the very beginning of shamanism, they guarded the holy mountain.
They are born in the Blood Lake, and can be boosted by soaking in the blood of the Blood Lake. Therefore, the older the blood slave, the stronger the strength.
Legend has it that the first generation of blood slaves in the shamanic religion has one or two left after countless battles, and their powerful combat power is almost comparable to that of the celestials!
And even the recently produced blood slaves, even if they are the lowest, have the combat power of the Quadruple Heaven masters.
The entire shamanic religion is guarded by at least 100,000 blood slaves, which can be called an impregnable wall.

These blood slaves who appeared at this time were carrying huge prey, all of them were living demon beasts, the lowest was also a second-level demon beast, and there were even fourth-level demon beasts.
All the demon beasts fell into a coma without exception, and they could only let the blood slaves resist to the edge of the blood lake, and then were thrown into the lake by the blood slaves.
The blood water of the blood lake has an extremely terrifying corrosive ability, and after the powerful demon beast falls into it, it can't even struggle and scream, so it melts on the spot.
Their flesh and blood became the blood in the blood lake, and the hard bones sank to the bottom of the lake, and were slowly strengthened by the strange power of the lake.
Blood with eerie powers can be absorbed by shamanic demon statues and transformed into the power they need.
As for those white bones, they can be strengthened to create hard weapons. Even tribal leaders are willing to use this specially refined weapon. Because their power can be instilled with impunity, without worrying about the shattering of the bone weapon.
Therefore, in this barren land, even the big leaders who can't find the magic weapon in their hands like to use it.
As time passed, the sacrifice proceeded quickly, and in the blink of an eye, 900 demon beasts were thrown into the blood lake and transformed into nutrients for the holy mountain.
The 900 Blood Slaves who had completed the mission scattered and continued their mission to protect the Holy Mountain.
However, this daily sacrifice was not over yet, for behind the blood slaves, there were a hundred naked barbarian men and women.
They were all in the prime of life, with fanatical expressions on their faces, and they didn't care at all about the cold outside.
While reverently reciting the ancient incantation, they resolutely walked towards the blood lake, until finally, the whole person jumped down with a scream!
The rule of shamanism is that 1,000 lives are sacrificed every day, and at least 100 humans are guaranteed.
They say that this is so that those wonderful children can receive God's blessing and ascend to eternal life and live happily ever after!
The people of the barbarian tribe are inherently intellectually inferior, and coupled with the fact that they have a bad life, they are naturally easily deceived by the people of the Eternal Life Organization.
Therefore, since shamanism unified the northern barbarians, many people will voluntarily sacrifice themselves every day, and sometimes they even have to pay a certain price in order to compete for the quota of dedication!
And what they got was not ascension, but a cruel death. They who fell into the lake, like demon beasts, melted quickly, flesh and blood became part of it, and the white bones sank to the bottom of the lake, waiting to be strengthened before being made into weapons.
However, there are occasional exceptions. For example, this time, after an unusually powerful warrior threw himself into the blood, his piety seemed to be affirmed by some kind of power, and although his body was melting, he did not die, and the surrounding lake began to merge with him.
In the end, the lucky guy turned into a completely different picture, his body was two meters away, and the skin on the outside was gone, leaving only a blood-colored film, and he was a small blood slave.
After that, he sank to the bottom of the blood lake, and after a dozen years, he would appear as a new blood slave.
Yes, this weird blood lake still has the ability to create blood slaves, but only by sacrificing an average of 10,000 people can one be qualified to become a blood slave.
And this blood slave still has to undergo more than ten years of strengthening before it can truly become a powerful undead monster, the guardian of the holy mountain, and the guardian of the blood slave.
In this process, at least more than half of them will be eliminated, which shows the preciousness of blood slaves.
However, although it is not easy to make, it cannot stand the endless sacrifices of shamanism. A hundred people a day is actually just a normal time, if you encounter a major event, such as war, you need to carry out a solemn sacrifice to ask for the blessing of the blood god!
At that time, it was even necessary to sacrifice more than 100,000 humans in one go, so the probability of the appearance of blood slaves was high.
In short, after nearly 10,000 years of cultivation, the total number of blood slaves in the Shamanic Sacred Mountain exceeded 100,000!
100,000 monsters that can't be killed, 100,000 perverts whose strength is above the Four Heavens! If it weren't for the fact that they couldn't leave the Blood Lake too far, with this power alone, they would be able to wipe out the two empires of Great Qin and Great Ri!

Although Feng Ya learned most of the period in shamanism from the mouth of the shamanic master. But seeing the hideous blood god statue thousands of feet tall with her own eyes, Feng Ya couldn't help but be taken aback!
Even on a modern earth, humans can't complete such perverted architecture!
However, the barbarians in the barbarian land were stunned to create such a miracle! It really made Fengya feel extremely speechless.
Feng Ya and Lan Lan rode the Star Pegasus, and after a long journey of more than a month, they finally came here.
In the sky after sunset, they silently observed the sacrificial blood slaves and barbarians, and they were all angry at shamanism, a cult that did not take human life seriously at all. Especially thinking that her father and third brother were also in their hands, Fengya couldn't help but feel angry in her heart!
If he hadn't cared about the lives of his father and brothers, he would have given them a 'fire cloud' directly!
But now, he could only hold back his anger and quietly look for loopholes in the blood slave patrol below, intending to sneak in.
As a shamanic lair, it is impossible for the Holy Mountain to be without strong protective measures.
In fact, on the outskirts of this place, there are several powerful shamanic tribes living there. If Fengya didn't know how to fly, it would have been discovered thousands of miles away.
And near the holy mountain, there are more than 10,000 blood slaves patrolling all year round.
As a powerful puppet crafted by shamanism, the Blood Slave has long since become a tireless monster that cannot be killed by conventional methods.
Under the orders of their masters, they were scattered within a range of dozens of miles around the holy mountain, monitoring every grass and tree around them day and night. Coupled with the countless defensive alarms set up by shamanism, as well as various Taoist traps, the sacred mountain has long been protected.
Under normal circumstances, such a sacred mountain is almost impossible to sneak into, even if it can fly!
However, don't forget, Feng Ya has a shaman in her hands. There are only four shamanic masters in the Shamanism, and their status is equivalent to that of the deputy sect leader, second only to the sect master!
When the shamanic leader does not serve for many years and only concentrates on research, they actually become the rulers of shamanism.
Therefore, the shaman heavenly master was very clear about every grass and tree in the holy mountain, and even the defense loopholes of the scattered blood slaves had long been known to him.
It is precisely because of this that Fengya dared to formulate this crazy plan to save people.
The 10,000 blood slave defense network on the periphery does not have loopholes in normal times, but at sunset, 900 of them need to resist tribute, and at this time, there will be a trace of loopholes in the perfect defense network, and this is also an opportunity for elegance!
For the sake of his father and three elder brothers, Feng Ya decided to fight! While the 900 blood slaves had not returned from throwing sacrifices into the lake, he and Lan Lan quietly rode the Star Pegasus to a clearing, and then quickly followed a pre-planned route, through layers of dense forests, bypassing alarms and defensive traps, and came to a secret entrance on the back side of the holy mountain.
This entrance is hidden inside a large tree that several people hug, and only by climbing the tree can you fall through the middle and dive into the sacred mountain. This can be regarded as an escape route, and there are no more than five people in the entire shamanic sect, and the shaman master captured by Feng Ya happens to be one of them
