Blood Sacrifice.

This is the oldest and bloodiest form of sacrifice.

Because there were no gods in that era, and there were only gods that existed on the wild land.

A god, a god.

Although the meaning is still similar to that of many people, only those who have really studied countless ancient texts will know how big the difference is between these two words!

Because the gods still brought a person next to them after all, there were so many temple sacrifices in the mortal world after the war of the gods.

However, the gods represent the ancestral spirits, which are the totems sacrificed by the tribes of various tribes in the barbarian era, and many of them are not real creatures, but another form of life in the world. Maybe it was just an ordinary snake, and even this kind of snake did not exist in the world at all, but as long as it was sacrificed by the tribe for thousands of years, especially with the oldest blood sacrifice. Then the totem snake spirit sacrificed by the tribe will eventually become a very terrifying existence!

They are the patron saints.

Whether it is the Wu Clan or the Human Race, there has been such a long period of wilderness.

In that era when Nuwa had just created man, and the human race had not yet produced many gods and men, and even the gods did not know where they were, the tribes of the Wu and human tribes all worshiped the gods with ancient blood sacrifices in order to seek their protection, and in that era when monsters and beasts were rampant and fierce monsters slaughtered, it was difficult to survive in the wild land. They believe that there is a spirituality between heaven and earth, and this spirituality of heaven and earth is the most primitive god, and the sacrifice of the tribe will perceive the embodiment of this spiritual nature of heaven and earth, or beasts, or plants, or some species that does not exist in the world.

This is the origin of totem sacrifices.

In ancient times, many tribes used snakes, foxes, eagles, wolves and other beasts as totems, and worshiped these gods with ancient blood sacrifices. As time passed, these tribes killed and swallowed each other, and the ancestral spirits that were sacrificed became stronger and stronger as the tribes grew. This situation continued until the ancient period of the Three Emperors and Five Emperors, when the increasingly powerful human race gradually replaced the totem sacrifice with the way of sacrificing ancestors, and those ancient gods gradually disappeared from the eyes of the world.

This is also the opening of the way of the gods later!

Especially after the War of the Gods, the incense sacrifice inherited by the human race evolved from the oldest sacrifice to the spirit of heaven and earth, but the incarnation of the spirituality of heaven and earth in ancient times finally became the god position after the War of the Gods.

The world is only a snap of a finger!

The ancestral spirit gradually evolved into the incarnation of the ancestors of the human race, and the spirit of heaven and earth sacrificed in ancient times also evolved into many gods in the mortal world.

There is no doubt that the Giant Wood Clan in front of them still maintains the traditions of the ancient period!

The ancestral spirit they sacrificed to was the big tree in front of them.

..................

Li Qingyun's eyes couldn't help but show curiosity, because he had never come into contact with a real god before.

The mortal sacrifices are all gods, which are incense sacrifices inherited after the battle of the gods, and there are only some yin gods in the temple. If he accepts the throne of the Dragon King of the South Seas, then he is also qualified to build a temple incense on earth, and mortals will naturally sacrifice his idol and pray for the peace of the Dragon King of the South Sea. However, the power brought by this incense offering is too little, and the cause and effect involved are too great, even if he ignores these incense offerings at all, the divine position of the Dragon King of the South China Sea will automatically converge on him.

This is the Yin God Fruit Rank after the Battle of the Gods!

There are many such existences in the mortal world, such as a land and a river god, many of them are cultivated to be incomparable to even Jindan Zhenren, and their own location is also the underworld, but they will occasionally appear in mortals' dreams.

Such a god!

Not to mention Li Qingyun, even a monk with a little bit of a desire to seek the Tao will not be taken seriously.

The highest god position in the entire mortal world is estimated to be only the Dragon King of the Four Seas.

Because the Dragon King of the Four Seas is not in the Yin Si system, there are many dragon species in this mortal world who hold the dragon king and river god position, but there are not many who have managed the life and death of mortals!

The way of heaven works.

They just let the number of days change, and at most help when they can't see it.

Those Yin gods have only existed for hundreds of years, and they have to be bound in the underworld, and after the end of the yin life, they will either dissipate or devote themselves to reincarnation, how can they compare to the hundreds of years of Yang Shou of monks?

Even to put it mildly, those Heavenly Realm Immortals who were killed and sealed after the Battle of the Gods are not great characters!

Those who cultivate immortals cross the tribulation and ascend.

If it is not the Earth Immortal Realm but the Heavenly Realm that has ascended, if you are unwilling, you can be the Wandering Immortal, and if you are willing to accept the canonization of the Heavenly Court, you will directly be the Yang God Fruit Position!

It's a pity.

The number of people who have successfully crossed the tribulation in these thousands of years is less than a slap, and even fewer are qualified to ascend to the heavenly realm.

The patriarch in the Qingyang Palace, one of whom successfully ascended to the heavenly realm, should now be one of the main gods of the thunder department, and his statue is enshrined in the main hall of the Qingyang Palace. As for the original Thunder Minister, I don't know how many years have passed since the Battle of the Gods, and then there are the War of Immortals and Demons, the Rebellion of Asura, the Scourge of the Hungry Ghost Dao, the Awakening of the Battle Soul of Chiyou Xingtian, and so on.

There is a saying in the world of cultivating immortals that there is a small calamity in five hundred years and a great calamity in three thousand years.

The gods of the heavenly realm seem to be high above, but since they have been canonized as gods, they have been involved in cause and effect, and monks can avoid these calamities by crossing the tribulations and ascending, but it is impossible for them to avoid them, because when they were ordained gods, they were destined to maintain the operating order of the six realms of beings. Many of the gods in the heavenly realm are still the same, but the owners of the gods don't know how many times they have been changed. Just like the incense sacrifice in the mortal world, no matter who is doing the city god land here, they are only sacrificing the god of the city god land.

How can mortals be interested in remembering the name of the Lord of the Land?

..................

If it weren't for the 100,000 volumes of classics in Qingyang Palace, Li Qingyun would definitely not know the evolution from gods to immortals.

Now that he had the opportunity to meet the true Elder Spirits, he was even more curious about how the Giant Wood people sacrificed. Because it is recorded in the classics that these ancient gods have great magical powers, although they rarely appear in the eyes of the world, but they have blessed the witch and human races countless times in the barbaric period. You must know that there were countless ancient fierce beasts in that era, and the nine-tailed fox demon who had caused a big mess in the immortal cultivation world was thrown in, and it is estimated that it would not even be able to make waves.

"These ancient gods are all the incarnations of the spirit of heaven and earth!"

"It's better to be careful!"

Li Qingyun looked around, and his figure couldn't help but float into the air, feeling that it was safer for him to look at it in the sky. After all, the tree spirit was still rooted in the earth, and it would be easier to escape in case of any danger.

Knock knock!

The strange sound of war drums echoed, and under that big tree, hundreds of Giant Wood people gathered together.

These giants, who were more than ten feet high, returned with all kinds of prey of fierce beasts, and then reverently placed the prey under the big tree in the sky, and then bowed down in turn.

The old-faced priest approached his prey, slit the neck of a saber-toothed tiger with a bony dagger, and mixed the released blood into a black clay pot. Then he stirred it with a bone, and as the master of the prey knelt before him, the priest dipped a finger in the dark red blood, and made two marks on the other man's countenance, and then left two tattoos of the serpent on his stout arm with his dagger.

"From today onwards, you are the warrior of the tribe!"

The priest spoke an ancient language, and Li Qingyun was surprised that he could understand it, even though he had never heard this strange pronunciation.

Bow down devotionally!

The prey's master's arm suddenly seemed to come to life, and the phantom of two snakes gradually emerged, winding up from his thick arm, wrapping around his body and resting on his left and right shoulders. The two serpents let out a low roar, and the big tree in the center seemed to hiss in response, and then they gradually disappeared, turning back into tattoos on their arms.

The tribe's rite of passage continues!

When all the adults had left the tattoos, the priest ordered everyone to carry their prey to the ancient altar.

Drops of blood seeped into the black-brown stones, and the essence and blood contained in those prey objects gradually flowed, and the big tree in the center shook its branches as if stretched, and every green leaf seemed to be full of life. A cyan python of hundreds of feet swayed down from the sky tree, its cold pupils glanced at the giant wood clansman, and then opened its bloody mouth and swallowed a complete brute elephant.

After eating the prey.

The cyan python once again wrapped around the sky tree and disappeared into the lush branches, and the old-faced priest couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and ordered the tribesmen to put the remaining prey into the huge bronze tripod in the tribe.

"There are actually two ancestral spirits?"

In the sky, Li Qingyun's face changed slightly, but he immediately reacted and muttered, "That cyan giant python has a strong demonic aura, how can it be the incarnation of the spirit of heaven and earth?"

"On the contrary, the sky tree is a little weird, and I can't even perceive its spirituality at all!"

"This is some of the breath of an ancient god!"
