Chapter 147: Sacrificial Evil Arts
"The sudden appearance of this corpse here gives me a very strange feeling!"
Xu Hai ignored the surprised stares of the others, he knew that the place where he was now should not have been in a long time.
And now, for no apparent reason, a corpse appeared on the ground, and he thought that there must be something very important about it.
He immediately walked over to the corpse, turned it over and examined it.
When he turned it over, he finally got a good idea of what the corpse's face looked like.
The corpse's face was like a dried corpse, with only a thin layer of dry old skin.
He hurriedly took out a first-order spirit sword from the storage ring and cut the clothes on the corpse.
The others saw him move, and their bodies quickly retreated.
In their opinion, Xu Hai focused on the corpse, to study the corpse, and they could not understand why he was doing this.
Xu Hai did this because he felt that the corpse in front of them was too weird.
In his opinion, if this corpse had been dead here for a long time, it would have been a pile of bones by now, and it would not be like this.
He cut open the corpse's clothes with his sword, and soon he saw that the corpse's internal organs were gone.
He recalled some memories of the previous three Ten Thousand Law Exquisite Pagoda Masters, and after a while, his eyes suddenly lit up.
He searched for an evil technique about sacrifice in Xu Zhenyang's memory, which was to forcibly extract the life essence and soul of some young martial artists, and extract their life essence and soul from a living martial artist.
This process is comparable to a thousand knives for a martial artist who has been stripped of his life essence and soul
The worst thing is that this process lasts a very long time, at least overnight.
Therefore, in order to prevent the warrior who has been drained of the life essence and soul from dying so quickly, the caster will first stuff a reciprocal stone into the victim's mouth.
Xu Hai took a deep breath, he hurriedly used the first-order spirit sword to pry open the corpse's mouth, and the next moment, he took out a black ore from the corpse's mouth.
He hurriedly cut the black ore into two pieces with a sword, and then he burned the ore with fire.
When the ore caught fire, it burned on the ground.
When the other people present saw Xu Hai's movements, their eyes suddenly lit up.
In their opinion, Xu Hai must have recognized how the corpse had died before he had died.
"Xu Daoyou, do you know how this corpse died?"
Mo Ruyu immediately became interested, she judged that Xu Hai's series of actions just now meant that the other party had recognized how the corpse on the ground had died.
Xu Hai sighed and said: "I already know how this corpse died, this corpse was forcibly extracted from the essence of life and soul before his death, and the other party is sacrificing when he does this!" This kind of sacrifice is a very evil life-for-life magic art, as far as I know, this kind of sacrifice ritual has three levels, the first class is called the ghost sacrifice ceremony, generally, the ghost sacrifice ceremony is to dedicate at least a hundred young male and female warriors who are less than twenty years old The life essence and soul, once the ghost sacrifice ceremony is completed, the caster can obtain decades of life. The second class is called the land sacrifice ceremony, which requires the life essence and soul of thousands of young men and women under the age of 20. Once the dedication ceremony is completed, the caster can earn more than 100 years of life. The highest level is called the dedication ceremony, which requires the life essence and soul of tens of thousands of young men and women under the age of 20. Once the dedication ceremony is completed, the caster will be able to gain hundreds of years of life! I ask you, is there a history of large-scale deaths of young warriors in this place before?"
Mo Ruyu listened and thought for a while.
Soon, she remembered that there had indeed been a history of a large number of young warriors disappearing for no reason in the past.
"I remember, more than a thousand years ago, here, there was a largest sect, the Sword Soul Sect, this sect used to be a local tyrant, but suddenly, all the young men and women of this Sword Soul Sect suddenly disappeared, according to this, at least tens of thousands of young men and women in this sect disappeared at that time!"
"That's right, I remember that there is such a thing!"
When the other people heard Mo Ruyu's this, they immediately remembered this ancient and mysterious Sword Soul Sect.
The crowd immediately looked at the weapon beside the corpse on the ground, and they saw that it was a rusty broadsword.
Xu Hai carefully observed the big knife, and soon, he saw the three words Sword Soul Sect on the handle of the knife.
"Everyone, look, this knife has the words Sword Soul Sect on it!"
Xu Hai exclaimed.
The others also opened their eyes wide to look at the words on the big knife, and soon, they all saw that the three words of the Sword Soul Sect were indeed engraved on it.
When they saw those three words, they all felt like they were hitting ghosts.
The corpse on the ground was not terrifying, what really made them feel terrifying was that the corpse on the ground turned out to be a mysteriously missing sect disciple.
"Xu Hai, fortunately you are careful, otherwise, we will miss this important clue! Everyone, do we have to move forward next?"
After Mo Ruyu calmed down, she immediately said.
"Let's move on! This ancient tomb is at least a thousand years old now, and there shouldn't be any living Gu Rao here!"
The young man who took the lead said.
Mo Ruyu's eyes rolled, and she suddenly said: "Everyone, if there are really a lot of Sword Soul Sect disciples who have died here before, then their sacrifice is related to sacrifice, if all the Sword Soul Sect disciples are taken to sacrifice, there may be living people in it!"
When the others heard this, goosebumps all over their bodies stood on end.
Indeed, as Xu Hai said, if the highest level of dedication is completed, then the caster can obtain hundreds of years of life.
And the Sword Soul Sect was only destroyed more than a thousand years ago for no reason, and the caster increased his longevity by hundreds of years, if the caster's own cultivation was high, then his longevity would be at least hundreds of years.
That is, the caster can live up to more than a thousand years.
Thinking of this, many warriors gasped, they were terrified, and they felt that they had to leave this mysterious and terrifying ancient tomb immediately.
"Guys, let's get out of here, I think it's too scary, we should find more people!"
A martial artist swallowed his saliva, and he said nervously.
"Okay!"
Many warriors echoed him.
Suddenly, the crowd heard the sound of heavy stones falling behind them.
This sound frightened everyone enough, and some of the brave people even fell to their knees on their legs.
"What's going on?"
Soon, everyone reacted.
They immediately rushed towards their path, and soon they saw a large stone wall blocking their path.
"Ah, this stone is so heavy!"
Everyone tried to lift the boulder, but they moved it for a while, but the boulder did not move.
Xu Hai's divine sense entered the boulder, and soon, his face was like ashes.
"Ah, this stone weighs at least 100,000 catties!"
When the others heard his words, they were all discouraged.
"What are we going to do? We can't go back!"
Some of the young women in the line burst into tears.
Xu Hai thought that it was very likely that someone had unintentionally touched the mechanism here and made the boulder fall.
"It seems that we can't go back, we can only keep going!"
Xu Hai thought for a while, and finally said.
"Okay, let's keep heading ahead!"
Mo Ruyu quickly calmed down.
She knew that they would only get out alive if they kept walking forward.
"Guys, could it be that someone didn't bother with the mechanism here?"
A young woman in the team asked.
"It's not clear, perhaps, this is how the arranger of this underground labyrinth has arranged it, once we enter here for a while, the mechanism here will automatically open!"
A male warrior replied.
"Yes, there is a possibility! We can only continue to move forward now, or the way out is ahead!"
Mo Ruyu responded.
Pessimism flashed in the hearts of many people, and they knew in their hearts that they might be trapped here and never get out.
But now, they can only think on the bright side.
"Don't be too anxious, our big team is just behind! they'll be rushing up soon!"
Mo Ruyu guessed that the others must be very frightened in their hearts, so she immediately spoke out to reassure her.
"Okay! Let's move on!"
The young man who took the lead said.
So, the team continued to move forward.
Soon, they saw another corpse on the ground.
Xu Hai examined the corpse and found that the cause of death was the same as the one he had examined earlier.
Seeing Xu Hai's movements, some of the people present thought of a possibility.
A young male warrior immediately shouted loudly: "This friend, could it be that you accidentally touched the mechanism here just now? These corpses are placed here, they are actually mechanisms." If you don't touch them, the mechanism won't be activated! We didn't do anything before, it was you who touched the corpse here that caused the mechanism to open!"
When Xu Hai heard this, he shook his head helplessly and said: "This friend, there is no trace of a trap here, you have touched the mechanism here, then please find out the mechanism here and let me see it!"
"Find it!"
The young warrior stepped forward immediately, and he stomped on the corpse on the ground.
He trampled the corpses on the ground, trampling and trampling them with his feet.
He did this because he wanted to touch the traps placed inside or outside the corpse.
Seeing the male warrior's rude movements, Xu Hai could only shake his head.
The male warrior stepped on it for a while, trampling the corpses on the ground.
However, after a long time, none of them heard any sound appear.
The old man blushed, and he knew that he had made a mistake in his previous judgment.
"Well, I was wrong, I'm sorry for this friend!"
The young male warrior apologized nonchalantly.
Xu Hai sighed and said, "Do you have an antidote pill on your body?"
"I have! what's wrong?"
The young male warrior asked, puzzled.
Xu Hai shook his head and said with emotion: "Look at your feet! Look at your feet!"
The warrior immediately lifted his pants and examined his feet.
The next moment, he saw that his feet were as black as black coal.
He exclaimed, "Ah, what's wrong with my feet, how can my feet be so black?"
Xu Hai said angrily: "You are poisoned! The corpse you stepped on with your foot just now is highly poisonous, when I checked the corpse before, I used my sword to pick it up, you are good, you step on it directly with your foot, it is strange if you are not poisoned! I wanted to remind you, but you stepped on it too fast, and it scared me!"
"So what should I do?"
The warrior was on the verge of crying.
"You take the antidote pill immediately, and detoxify it well! The poison in your feet is not too strong, recover one or two, and you will be fine! Those corpses have nothing to do with the mechanism, the reason why they have not turned into white bones until now, I think, should be related to those poisons!"
"You're not early?"
The warrior roared.
"I'm sorry, I haven't even finished the inspection just now, you rushed up, what can I do?"
Xu Hai cried out for himself.
"Don't shout, I'll give you the antidote pill!"
Mo Ruyu immediately handed the antidote pill in the storage ring to the male warrior and asked him to take the antidote pill.
