On the streets of Licheng, Yan Ran's steps were a little heavy, except for a pause to stop when he saw a bookstore selling on both sides of the street, and he was walking aimlessly at other times.

It's been a while since she came to the Li Clan's headquarters, and Li Mi hasn't shown up since she was called away by the Li Clan's ancestor, which makes her a little worried.

She wasn't sure if Rimmy would tell her about the Broken Life Mountains.

Whether it is water hyacinth or Sumeru mustard seeds, it still has a fatal attraction for the powerful Li clan.

If Li Shi knew, it would undoubtedly be extremely disadvantageous to her.

Yan Ran didn't want to sit still, he was looking for news about the Central Divine Mountain during this time, hoping to find something to leave Li Cheng, but unfortunately he gained very little!

"Sister Yan Ran!" Gui Yi found Yan Ran with a familiar car.

During this time, Yan Ran basically wandered around the major bookstores, as long as she searched for the bookstore, she could be found immediately.

No, Yan Ran is now standing in a bookstore, holding a scroll of animal skins in his hand and carefully watching the contents inside.

Hearing the voice, Yan Ran glanced up at Guiyi, and then turned his gaze to the animal skin scroll, "The clansmen have arranged it?"

I don't know what price the Turtle and Snake Clan paid, but the Li Clan actually agreed to settle down in the Central Domain.

"Well, there are patriarchs and priests here, and I don't need to do anything. "Kameichi looked a little bad.

Seeing this, Yan Ran didn't ask, the internal affairs of the Turtle and Snake Clan, she was an outsider and it was better not to inquire at will.

After a while, Yan Ran walked out of the bookstore with some disappointment.

There are very few animal skin scrolls that record the news of the central sacred mountain, and if there is, it is only some well-known news.

"Sister Yan Ran, why are you in such a hurry to find out the news of the Central Sacred Mountain?" the turtle looked at Yan Ran, who was frowning suspiciously, with a look of exploration in his eyes.

The creatures of the Jiuli Continent will be extremely in awe whenever they mention the Central Sacred Mountain, and this awe has been imprinted into their bones, even the top powerhouses in the continent are all like this.

However, this situation did not appear in Sister Yan Ran.

Every time she mentioned the Central Sacred Mountain, she was in no awe, but gave him a feeling that she didn't care.

This is not the emotion that a creature in the Jiuli Continent should have!

As she spent more time in contact with Yan Ran, the more Gui Yi felt that she really didn't seem to be like a person from this world!

"I want to go up to the Divine Mountain to have a look!" Yan Ran said softly, looking at the central Divine Mountain.

Gui Yi's face changed rapidly, and then he became a little silent all the way, and when he walked to a corner away from the crowd, he mustered up the courage to look at Yan Ran, "Sister Yan Ran, I don't know why you want to go to the Central Sacred Mountain, but in this case, you must not say it to others." ”

Seeing that Gui Yi said solemnly, Yan Ran smiled, "I won't tell anyone else except you." ”

Kameichi breathed a sigh of relief, and after a moment of silence, he spoke, "Regarding the Central Sacred Mountain, Kamepo once mentioned it. ”

"Oh, what did the turtle woman say?" Yan Ran was instantly interested.

For that wise old man, Yan Ran was very convinced.

"Turtle Po said that the Central Divine Mountain is a taboo for the creatures of the Jiuli Continent, whoever approaches it will die!" "Turtle Yi's expression was extremely serious, he was so solemn, he just wanted Yan Ran to dispel his attention to the Central Divine Mountain.

The Central Sacred Mountain, even the nine ancient clans, did not dare to mention it easily.

"Why is that?" Yan Ran raised his eyebrows, no matter how dangerous a mountain is, it is impossible for no one to be able to approach it!

"Because the Central Divine Mountain is the origin of the Jiuli Continent, when the Jiuli Continent was banished, the Divine Mountain was sealed by the power of the law. ”

"The Jiuli Continent does not have heaven and earth aura, and living beings cannot be promoted to level eight or above, just because the Central Divine Mountain is restricted by laws. ”

"The power of the law is extremely powerful, even if a powerhouse of the seventh level and ninth rank approaches, if you don't pay attention to it, you may fall. ”

Hearing this, Yan Ran was stunned for a moment, and then his expression moved slightly, "So, the shackles in the bodies of the creatures in the Jiuli Continent exist because the Divine Mountain was sealed?"

"That's how it should be!" Turtle nodded.

Yan Ran's eyes flickered, and the old tree said that the holy flame could break the shackles, could it also resist the power of the laws of the Central Divine Mountain?

If so, will she be able to go up to the sacred mountain with the holy fire in her arms?

Looking at Yan Ran, whose expression was uncertain, Gui Yi's mood was also very uncalm.

Before she died, the turtle woman said that the seal of the Central Sacred Mountain may be about to be broken, could this have something to do with Sister Yan Ran?

Both of them were thinking about things, and before they knew it, they actually came to the gate of the city.

The city gate was very crowded, and all kinds of noise were endless.

People entering and leaving the city pushed each other, resulting in some chaos.

"Licheng is getting more and more lively. Yan Ran glanced at the crowded city gate, and his expression was slightly condensed.

"There are still three months left for the mainland festival to be held, and Licheng, as one of the cities closest to the altar of heaven and earth, is naturally lively. Kameichi's voice was a little dull.

Yan Ran glanced at Gui Yi in surprise, most of the Li clan people were very excited when they mentioned the mainland sacrifice, why didn't he look interested?

"I've heard you guys talk about the continental co-sacrifice for a long time, what is going on with this continental co-sacrifice?" Yan Ran looked at Gui Yi curiously.

Gui Yi was stiff, and looked at Yan Ran with an ignorant face in disbelief.

Sister Yan Ran didn't even know about the mainland sacrifice?

Even the weakest and most barren tribe could not be unaware of the sacrificial events that have been passed down from generation to generation in the Jiuli Continent!

She's really not from this world?!

After a long while, Gui Yi found his voice back, "The Continental Sacrifice is a sacrificial event in which all races in the Jiuli Continent participate, and it is actually a sacrifice to the Central Sacred Mountain. ”

"What is there to sacrifice to a mountain!"

Listening to Yan Ran's nonchalant voice, the turtle shook his whole body, and a certain guess in his heart became more and more certain, and he said with difficulty after a while, "The Central Divine Mountain is a god respected by all living beings in the Jiuli Continent, so it is natural to sacrifice!"

"Huh?" Yan Ran looked surprised.

"Sister Yan Ran, do you know why the closer you get to the Central Divine Mountain, the richer the mainland becomes?"

Yan Ran shook his head.

"Because of the feedback of the central sacred mountain, and this feedback is from the mainland common sacrifice. The more abundant the offering, the more it will be rewarded. ”

"All the seventh-level powerhouses in the continent were only able to advance after receiving feedback from the Divine Mountain. ”

"What kind of feedback?" Yan Ran asked curiously.

"Golden Body Fruit!"

"After the creatures of the Jiuli Continent are sacrificed, on the altar of heaven and earth, a golden body fruit will be condensed, and the sixth-level powerhouse can only advance to the seventh level if he takes the golden body fruit. ”

"The mainland is held once for a thousand years, and every time, it is actually a contest between the human race and the fierce beast, competing for the golden body fruit, and the victor will have one more seventh-level powerhouse. ”

Looking at Guiyi's increasingly solemn face, Yan Ran chuckled in his heart, "That... What is the sacrifice?"

"In the beginning, the sacrifices prepared by our human race were naturally fierce beasts, and the fierce beasts, of course, were prepared by our human race. Guiyi said bitterly, "But later, for some reason, the sacrifices prepared by the human race became humans, and the sacrifices prepared by the fierce beasts also became fierce beasts!"

"Sacrifice with a living person?" Yan Ran was shocked, Rao knew that this world was extremely indifferent to life, but she didn't expect it to be so cruel.

"yes, a lot of living people. Every time there is a sacrifice on the mainland, tens of millions of human races will die. Kameichi's expression became more and more bitter.

"How many?!" Yan Ran looked dumbfounded, "Tens of millions, so many people are needed?" she thought that dozens of hundreds of people would be up to the sky!

Kameichi smiled bitterly and nodded, "Not only people, but also the same number of fierce beasts. ”

"Where is this sacrifice, it's clearly a slaughter!"

Gui Yi looked at Yan Ran, who looked disapproving, and said in a dull voice, "This is a massacre, a massacre against the weak." ”

"Isn't there anyone against it?"

Kameichi shook his head.

"Gui Po once said that the holding of the mainland common sacrifice is actually to maintain the balance of the Jiuli Continent, which is inevitable and unavoidable. ”

Yan Ran was silent.

At this time, a group of people happened to pass by outside the city gate.

The men staggered and had decadent faces, escorted by dozens of warriors in black armor in the direction of the central sacred mountain.

"Why are there so few sacrifices for the mainland this time?"

Immediately, some people around began to talk about it.

"This is just a sacrifice from some small clans, and the nine major clans haven't been escorted over yet!"

Seeing the people around him pointing at the group of people, talking a lot, and with a critical look on his face, Yan Ran felt very dazzling.

"Sister Yan Ran, let's go back!" Gui Yi's expression was not very good, thinking that the Turtle and Snake Clan would also sacrifice half of the clan as a sacrifice, his fists were clenched so that the knuckles turned white.

------

When Yan Ran returned to his residence, Ah Yi was busy with a few slaves.

As a son-in-law, Li Mi was still assigned a courtyard in the Li family's headquarters, although it was not as good as the mansion in Liaoyuan City, but it was still quite empty.

"Is the son-in-law back?" Every time he came back from outside, Yan Ran had to ask.

"Not yet!" Ah Yi looked a little worried, the priest was not there, and the city lord didn't care about the son-in-law, they just wanted to inquire about the news of the son-in-law, but they couldn't find a way.

"Don't worry, the son-in-law was called away by the ancestor, and it should be fine. Yan Ran comforted.

"I hope I don't know when the priest will return, and if he does, the son-in-law will be fine. With that, Ah Yi began to pray in the direction of the central sacred mountain, hoping that the priest would come back soon to save her son-in-law.

Yan Ran returned to his room, took out the Ten Thousand Medicine Pills, and began to refine the fifth-level quenching medicinal bath, and then took out the sixth-level fierce beast blood invasion grinding disc.

Although the Broken Life Mountain Range is dangerous, there are a lot of treasures and medicines in it.

After passing through, she, Gui Yi and Li Mi not only collected a lot of treasure medicines, but also killed many fierce beasts, and collected a lot of fierce beast blood and fierce beast meat.

Although she was carrying the holy fire, she still didn't dare to be careless about the Central Sacred Mountain.

Even a seventh-level powerhouse may fall, and she has only advanced to the fifth level, so she naturally has to be cautious.

Now, all she can do is to try to improve her strength and enhance her physical strength.

As soon as the body quenching medicinal bath was boiled, Yan Ran ignored the boiling medicinal liquid, and sat down directly and set up the fifth group of body refining diagrams of the Fa Heaven and Earth.

"Bang Bang Bang Bang"

As the energy in the medicinal bath was absorbed by the body, the bones and flesh in Yan Ran's body began to make a sound.

After a layer of black dirt was discharged, Yan Ran's skin became more and more clear and smooth.

After absorbing the energy in the fifth-level medicinal bath, Yan Ran threw himself into the grinding.

With the continuous influx of cool and scorching qi, Yan Ran's physical body was nourished and developed to the greatest extent.

The Yiding Ding Quenching Medicinal Bath was absorbed, and Yan Ran's physical strength increased day by day.

Just when Yan Ran was constantly taking medicinal baths and grasping his cultivation, in a compound not far from Li Mi's small courtyard, Li Guangcheng was sitting in the hall with a gloomy face, and below, Li Fei and the others also had a sad face.

"It's really too deceitful, knowing that we lost a lot of clansmen when we moved from Liaoyuan City, and now they even want us to give out a batch of sacrifices!" Li Ao said indignantly.

"The headquarters keeps so much waste and doesn't use it for sacrifice, but keeps it for consumption of supplies!" Li Fei was also angry.

"Father, what's going on with the fifth sister?" Li Fei looked at Li Guangcheng.

Li Guangcheng shook his head, if Li Mi really gained favor from the ancestor, the people in the headquarters would not dare to treat them like this.

"Hey, don't count on Li Mi, she's a waste, except for the priest who doesn't know what to do wrong, who will take care of her!" Li Ao pouted.

If it was a time before, Li Guangcheng would definitely scold him when he heard such words, but today, he didn't, obviously agreeing with Li Ao's words.

"Prepare the sacrifices. ”

"There are not many people in our lineage, and if we gather 10,000 sacrifices, I'm afraid it will hurt the foundation. An elder said in a deep voice.

"Father, I have a solution. Li Fei suddenly spoke.

"What's the solution?"

"Didn't there be a lot of tribes attached to us before, let them send some people, and hand over some unnecessary slaves around us, so that we don't have to hand over many tribesmen, anyway, the people in the headquarters only recognize the number. ”

"Just do as you say!"

------

After soaking in more than a dozen Ding fifth-level quenching medicinal baths, Yan Ran raised the strength of his physical body to the fifth-level limit.

At this time, there were only a few days left before the mainland joint sacrifice, and Li Mi had not yet returned.

"It looks like I can't say goodbye to her. ”

Yan Ran originally wanted to wait for Li Mi to come back and say goodbye to her in person, but now it seems that she can't.

Leaving a letter, Yan Ran planned to leave Li City, taking advantage of the fact that the major clans were rushing towards the Heaven and Earth Altar under the Central Divine Mountain, and she happened to go with her.

However, as soon as Yan Ran walked to the gate of the courtyard, a team of menacing silver-armored guards rushed into the courtyard and arrested the courtyard without saying a word.

"What are you doing here, we're the people of Lady Limi!" Ah Yi angrily looked at the silver armor guard who rushed in.

"Smack!" The leading silver-armored guard slapped Ah Yi one by one, directly knocking her to the ground.

Yan Ran stepped forward to help her up, and looked at Li Fei who walked in slowly with an ugly face.

"I just received the news that my fifth sister has been sent to the altar of heaven and earth as a sacrifice, and you, as her slaves, naturally want to accompany her. Li Fei said expressionlessly.

"Impossible, the ancestor is so likely to let the son-in-law make a sacrifice!" Ah Yi looked at Li Fei in disbelief.

Li Fei ignored Ah Yi and walked in front of Yan Ran, "If you pass on the magic power in your hand to this son, this son can be the master, not let you be a sacrifice, and let you serve by my son's side." ”

Yan Ran looked at Li Fei coldly and asked, "Is the son-in-law really being sent to the altar as a sacrifice?"

"Of course. ”

"Why?" how could Limi be the daughter of a city lord, and there was a priest who valued her behind her, how could she be used as a sacrifice?

"I heard that she seems to have offended the ancestor. ”
