Chapter 266 Sacrifice Law

"Difficult! There is no Avalokitesvara!"

Chu Tai did not take action immediately, but continued to respond with the Lotus Mother Dharma.

Crystal clear golden flames were burning, illuminating the surrounding void as transparent as glass, but beneath the Buddha's light, there was a bone-chilling coldness. The evil lights and cold air that fell several times were all dissipated in the fluttering flames, or assimilated by the flames.

The priest was stunned for a moment when he saw this scene. The next second, the long hair of the Lotus Mother behind Chu Tai was flying, and the black hair extended infinitely, turning into a thousand-foot curtain that covered the sky and the sun, covering the vast earth.

At the same time, tiny flower branches and leaves grew out from the black hair, layer upon layer, spreading continuously, but they also became increasingly illusory, as if blending into the void, making it difficult to detect their traces.

"This is?"

The priest's expression suddenly changed and he seemed a little at a loss.

Because the ancient holy king cut off the inhuman path, the totems worshipped by the tribes in the Northern Wilderness are essentially closer to the practice methods of the immortal altar, but the existence they worship is not practiced by one person, but by the entire tribe.

The so-called priests do not worship totems or gods in the true sense. Their concept is closer to the concrete embodiment of the concept of tribe.

Therefore, the status of priests in the Northern Wilderness has always been somewhat awkward.

To ordinary people, he is the representative of the totem and the apostle of the supreme being. To the tribal leaders, the so-called priest is nothing more than a tool to control the excess power of the herdsmen.

Therefore, being a priest is just a good way out for ordinary herdsmen and tribal members, but their future is fixed and they can only climb to the middle level at best, and it is difficult to touch the core of power.

Therefore, most of the priests around the altar are of average level, and apart from various sacrificial abilities, they do not have much knowledge accumulation.

At this moment, they could only rely on the power of the totem to sense that the aura of many earth veins under the earth was being homogenized by the gradually weakening Lotus Mother Dharma. They instinctively resisted, the sound of animal skin drums continued to echo, and the power of the Dharma world began to operate.

The fragments of Dao Fruit and the secret demons of the heavens were driven to change one after another, drawing the earth's Qi from the earth. The sound of sharp whistling wind continued to come from the earth, as if it was the painful howling of thousands of dead souls in the nine netherworlds deep in the earth.

"You can't extract any more, you can't extract any more!"

A priest sensed something was wrong and changed the sound of the drum, trying to stop the actions of others, while shouting loudly.

"We have already extracted the energy from more than a dozen earth veins. If we continue to extract...hmm..."

A sharp blade pierced the priest's abdomen, and then the earth energy he gathered was instantly transformed into yin energy, foul air, death energy, fierce energy, and evil energy, and merged into the Dharma Realm, enveloping Chu Tai.

Seeing this, the other many priests naturally did not dare to say a word and danced even more vigorously. As a large amount of earth energy was extracted, some of the earth veins were changed, and even because of the misplaced backflow of earth energy, there was a situation of mutual collision.

Mountains and hills began to collapse, and a series of tremors began to come from underground.

Chu Tai was shocked and looked around, he saw that many people living nearby were not aware of the problem at all and were shocked.

What's more troublesome is that with the vibration, negative energy, foul air, dead air, fierce air and evil air continue to rise from the ground. Under the coverage of these auras, normal people will have problems.

“You are crazy!”

Chu Tai was furious. Apart from the dark, foul, deadly, fierce and evil auras, he also felt that the power of the Dao Fruit fragments in the earth veins was increasing. Some of the auras in the Dao Fruit fragments that involved prayers, redemption and protection were responding to the prayers of those living beings.

Any living being who senses the power of the Tao Fruit fragment and offers faith in it will be affected by the Tao Fruit fragment and become a new, subtle Tao Fruit fragment.

The furious Chu Tai launched the Five Dragon Demon-Slaying Wheel, materializing five dragon shadows and ordering them to destroy the altar and the Dharma Realm.

But as soon as the dragon shadow appeared, the priests changed their pace and muttered something.

The yin, filth, death, evil and evil energies within the Dharma Realm began to mix together, transforming into tens of millions of complex energy flows, wandering back and forth, crisscrossing and changing.

"rise!"

The priests shouted loudly, and souls flew out from their long sleeves, falling into the complex aura and causing more inexplicable changes.

But from Chu Tai's perspective, he could only see a large mass of violently rolling black clouds covering the outer layer of the Dharma Realm. Inside, there were countless slender black streams of light wriggling in the Dharma Realm, making waves like something crawling in the grass, or like the sound of waves caused by the collision of water and sand.

All kinds of sounds intertwined together, making the flowing lights look more like millions of black snakes moving through the clouds and mist, weird and terrifying, eerie and mysterious.

These black snakes soared into the air and surrounded the five dragon phantoms. Waves of whistling and ghostly voices echoed, making people feel upset and their scalps tingling.

The five dragon phantoms were also difficult to maintain due to the entanglement of the black snake.

But taking this opportunity, Chu Tai also saw that the core of their method was to materialize the suffering and pain suffered by the tribes in the Northern Wilderness, and then through hostility towards the Central Plains and with the guidance of some of the dead souls who resented the Central Plains, transform it into a power that was almost a curse, targeting all existence in the Central Plains.

This curse contained the resentment and curses accumulated by many tribes in the Northern Wilderness for thousands of years. Even though Chu Tai only sensed it remotely through the Five Dragons Demon-Slaying Wheel, he felt a heavy oppression. His spirituality and magic power could not function freely, as if they were filled with lead.

However, such changes undoubtedly stimulated the Lotus Mother Dharma Image.

The Dharma image that had merged into the void reappeared. This time, its black hair had completely turned into vines. At the same time, endless curses echoed from its waving thousand hands and eyes.

Why doesn’t the compassionate Buddha save the world?
Why would someone with such great supernatural powers bring harm to the common people?

Why doesn’t the Thousand Hands and Thousand Eyes help everyone?
Many distracting thoughts surged, from prayer to disappointment, from disappointment to determination, and after determination was broken, there was despair. Resentment derived from despair, evaporated and dissipated, turning into white mist, colliding with the negative emotions accumulated by many tribes in the Northern Wilderness for thousands of years.

At the same time, a ray of golden light emerged from the body of the Lotus Mother Dharmakāya, illuminating the entire body of the Dharmakāya. It then transformed into golden light and spread outward, permeating the ten directions and rendering the entire Dharmakāya realm golden.

The negative, foul, deadly, evil and harmful energies all dissipated as quickly as water vapor under a raging fire.

Some impurities even appear to be annihilated or dissipated.

"Namo Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva! Namo Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva! Namo..."

Prayers to Guanyin echoed everywhere, but as the voices were chanted, their tone changed, the name was wrong, and they turned into new prayers.

"Difficult! Without Avalokitesvara..."

"Difficult! Without Avalokitesvara..."

"Difficult! There is no Guanyin Bodhisattva..." Overlapping voices echoed in the empty sky and earth in all directions, deafening the ears. Among the thousands of hands and eyes, it seemed that hundreds of millions of people were shouting in unison.

The Dharma Realm began to crack, the six demons in the Desire Realm gradually twisted, and the fragments of the Dao Fruit on the altar seemed to be pulled together, converging in the direction of the Lotus Mother's Dharma image. On her body and in her hands, the shadows of necklaces and magical instruments appeared.

At the same time, a faint Buddha light appeared on the three beast totems of wolf, deer and eagle that were originally enshrined in the middle. Several priests immediately began to tremble all over, and a faint Buddha light gradually appeared on their bodies.

Obviously, the totems symbolizing the tribe were eroded by the power of the Lotus Mother Dharma Image, so that the priests who worshipped them were affected first and their original foundations were also affected by Buddhism.

The high priest in the center waved the bone staff in his hand again, ignoring the mask with lotus patterns gradually appearing on his face, killed the priests one after another, stood on the altar, and started a new sacrifice.

The fragments of Tao Fruit fell one after another and merged into the bodies of the priests. Under the erosion of the black air, they stood up again.

But what’s interesting is that after the black air entered the priest’s body and connected with the people in the tribe, it turned into green smoke and dissipated.

An inhuman feeling emerged on the faces of these priests, their empty eyes were filled with emotions called "mercy", "benevolence" and "pity", and they were surrounded by auspicious clouds and auspicious aura.

After many priests stood up, the edge of the entire Dharma Realm was immediately dyed with a layer of golden light, and boundless auspicious clouds emerged from the golden light.

Thousands of auspicious auras were descending, and numerous colorful clouds were flying. All the depression and terror caused by the previous battle disappeared.

"Is this creating a god?"

Chu Tai looked at everything in front of him with some surprise, but before he could express his opinion, new changes appeared on these priests.

The characteristics of some animals and many sacred visions overlap with them.

At the same time, in some tribes far away in the northern wilderness, many people also showed some strange phenomena.

"I feel it, I feel it! I feel the power of the totem!"

A young man was jumping and hopping in the middle of the horse farm, with some wolf marks gradually appearing on his body. Many people nearby saw this and showed envy. Only an old man wearing a Nuo mask looked at him from afar with a bit of helplessness in his eyes.

"It's still a little short. I've already purified those Dao Fruit fragments once, and asked the priests to set up the altar and form a Dharma Realm barrier. Is this all this group of people can do? That's a huge waste of Dao Fruit fragments..."

'Now, the people of this tribe are gradually being affected by the power of the Dao Fruit fragments. It seems that their bloodline has been restored to its original state, but in fact, the corresponding principles behind the Dao Fruit fragments are eroding the roots of their bloodline, alienating this part of the concept and turning it into the foundation for their roots in the Eastern Extreme Chenguang Great Heaven.'

'It's just that the guy who manages the Northern Wasteland likes to watch people fight, but he also knows the importance of things and will not allow the power of the Dao Fruit fragments to be further alienated. After all, if a god of faith really appears, there will be more things to deal with later.'

'In the end, what is created should no longer be Shinto, but something like a further alienated bloodline system.'

"It seems that it is not easy to continue the path of the gods with the help of totems. I don't know if Hong Yue can give me some bigger surprises."

The old man turned around and left this place. Not long after that, a shadow of an arm appeared in the sky that was completely invisible to ordinary people.

No, rather, after the individual perceives it, he will instinctively feel that an arm that ordinary people cannot see has appeared in the sky above the Northern Wilderness. In fact, it is not a real arm, but a kind of falling force.

If one's understanding is different, or one's own cultivation is sufficient, one can see that the power descending from the sky is actually more like a rushing waterfall.

It washed over the sky above the tribe once, suppressing the aura of the Dao Fruit fragments, and then spread to the surroundings, moistening the land.

At the moment when the power spread, a shout rang in the old man's ears: "Lian Huasheng, get out of the Northern Wasteland!"

On the other side, the priest who was opposed to Chu Tai had devout faith in his eyes. He saluted the "priests" around him, allowing the divine light to gradually emerge on these people.

These divine lights were all manifestations of the Dao principles and laws within the Dao Fruit fragments. Like all Dao Fruit fragments, Chu Tai felt a lot of information just by seeing them. However, the power of these priests themselves was not strong, and the Dao Fruit fragments they absorbed were only of the seventh or eighth grade. The information they provided was very scarce and could not cause any waves in Chu Tai's mind at all.

"It looks like I don't need to do anything."

But Chu Tai, who already knew that the other party wanted to create a god, did not intend to intervene. He hid aside, as if shocked by the principles of these "priests". He watched the auras of these "priests" begin to blend and finally converge on the high priest holding a bone staff in the center.

Suddenly, it seemed like something was about to take shape.

It was also at this moment.

Chu Tai felt a force begin to turn above the Middle-earth.

The next moment, wisps of faith and wishes began to emanate from around the priest. It was a prayer for good fortune, for wealth, for power, for peace, marriage, and even the desire for longevity.

Many desires mixed together like a quagmire, swallowing up the high priest, the divine light on his body, and a god who was about to take shape and come to the world.

Moreover, this power seemed to want to spread towards their tribe along the characteristics of the previous high priest.

Afterwards, Chu Tai saw a torrent of energy falling from the sky, resisting the spread of desire.

But no one knew whether it was due to the collision of forces or because it had previously swallowed up many Dao Fruit fragments.

At the moment of the collision of forces, Chu Tai saw the shadows of many gods emerging from the torrent of desire that was engulfing the high priest.

These phantoms were washed out of desire by the torrent of energy and turned into new fragments of Tao Fruit that fell down. Two of them fell next to Chu Tai and turned into strange jade stones.

Chu Tai picked it up and discovered that it was actually a layer of extremely high-quality true Qi materialized, sealing the Dao Fruit fragment inside.

The quality of this layer of true Qi is so high that it has only been seen in the Taiyi Zhenjun that Chu Tai met in the past and the sword energy that appeared at the same time.

As for the rest, even the third-grade true Qi mastered by Ancestor Haha is slightly inferior.

"Sure enough, the fact that the Northern Wasteland and the Central Plains have been able to contend with each other for such a long time must be due to their own background."

Chu Tai used the mist brought by "Lord in the Clouds" and was about to hide the two pieces of Tao fruit fragments and put them back to their original place.

The Donghuang Bell suddenly shook slightly.
