Shrouding the Heavens: The Ultimate Daoist Venerable

Chapter 569 Blood Sacrifice Array

Emperor Jinhua did not refute, but sighed, "The Ziwei Star human race can not only give birth to the Wuji Heavenly Venerable of the mythical era, but also to an outstanding person like you. It is truly a treasure land of outstanding people and abundant resources."

Changsheng said, "What, do you regret offending my Ziwei?"

The quasi-Emperor of Jinhua said, "Regret? Perhaps. After all, I didn't expect you to be so troublesome. The current situation is far from my plan."

Changsheng said, "Use whatever other tricks you have up your sleeve. Don't make me kill you like this. Otherwise, this problem that has troubled me for hundreds of years will be easily solved, and I will feel very regretful."

The quasi-emperor of Jinhua said, "If you really kill me, what will happen to my clansmen?"

Chang Sheng was silent for a moment, but then said, "An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth."

The quasi-Emperor of Jinhua sighed leisurely, "I knew it would be like this."

As he spoke, his face turned grim, filled with coldness and cruelty: "Since they are destined to die, how they die is no longer important."

As soon as he finished speaking, the great formation behind him immediately emitted an astonishing power, directly covering a small part of Ziwei Star and shining with divine light.

However, this powerful force did not target the outside world, but instead completely covered the areas within the formation that were temporarily occupied by the ancient race. Instantly, endless bloodlust and overwhelming resentment soared into the sky.

Others might find it difficult to see the scene inside this great array, which contains most of the extreme Dao array patterns, but for Changsheng, with his cultivation level, seeing it is a piece of cake.

Inside the great formation, all the ancient clans, including his own Golden Clan, all the dozens of Great Saints, and the few prodigies who entered and exited the Quasi-Emperor realm, were directly annihilated by this power, turning into streams of life essence that continuously flowed into the body of the Golden Flower Quasi-Emperor.

The land was instantly filled with cries of agony and rivers of blood, a scene resembling a living hell.

At this moment, the great formation also encompassed the Golden Flower Quasi-Emperor, bringing him under its protection. Moreover, the great formation also faintly transformed into a Dao furnace, burning with an inextinguishable Dao fire, constantly purifying those powers, making it easier for the Golden Flower Quasi-Emperor to absorb all the essence of life and the laws of the Great Dao.

As a result, his aura surged continuously, quickly surpassing the level he could currently achieve at the fifth level of Quasi-Emperor.

The Quasi-Emperor of Jinhua actually sacrificed all the ancient races that still exist on Ziwei Star, turning them into his own nourishment!

Upon witnessing this scene, Changsheng was shocked by the madness of the Jinhua Quasi-Emperor, but at the same time, his actions also filled Changsheng with genuine disgust. After all, among those ancient clans sacrificed were even direct descendants of the Jinhua Quasi-Emperor himself.

Changsheng then said coldly, "Even tigers don't eat their cubs, yet you turn your own descendants into vessels for possession and offerings for blood sacrifices. I'm afraid even putting you alongside beasts would be an insult to them."

Jin Xiao was not among the strongest of Changsheng's later opponents, or even among the strongest group, but he was still impressed by his opponents who were upright and did not lose heart in defeat.

Upon learning that he had been possessed by the Jin Hua Quasi-Emperor, Chang Sheng already felt a sense of regret and anger. Now, seeing this scene, his anger and hatred naturally reached their peak, even causing the usually well-mannered and polite Chang Sheng to resort to verbal abuse. Upon hearing this, the Jin Hua Quasi-Emperor burst into laughter, but two streams of bloody tears streamed down his face: "My Golden Clan is a renowned clan in the universe, with profound heritage. Apart from never having produced an emperor, we can definitely be considered top-tier."

"From a young age, I have aimed to become the patriarch of the Golden Clan. My peers are not as good as me, and I even have time to study the Dao of Array Patterns while surpassing them in cultivation."

"But later, the position of clan leader was taken by a greenhorn, whose strength and talent were far inferior to mine, simply because the ancestor had prophesied that a peerless genius would be born among his descendants when he was comprehending the incomplete secret of the previous character. How absurd!"

"But no matter what I do, I can't change the ancestor's decision. Letting this good-for-nothing climb on my head is an insult to me!"

"Therefore, I could not stand such humiliation, so I led my descendants and resolved to carve out a new world for ourselves, establish a new Golden Clan, and make them all regret it!"

"But I didn't expect that old ghost Lingxu would be so tenacious, and that brat Yunxian would improve so rapidly, ruining my grand plan. And now, here comes you."

"At this moment, all my ideals and goals have vanished. In any case, their ability to enter Ziwei Star and grow stronger was all thanks to my support. Now I'm just taking back everything with interest."

“If you can defeat me, they are destined to die; but if I can defeat you, I will have a chance to rise again. So, let them become sacrifices and nourishment for me to make a final stand.”

"Boy, if you win, all will be well; but if you lose, I will slaughter every last member of Ziwei Star to vent my hatred!"

As they spoke, the great formation completely disintegrated and vanished, and the land that had just been inhabited by countless ancient races had been reduced to scorched earth, devoid of any life.

Upon sensing the aura of immortality, the quasi-emperor of Jinhua knew he had no hope left. Therefore, he had no choice but to resort to his final means.

He used the excuse of setting up a teleportation array to leave Ziwei, and got the entire ancient clan to work together to build this array, which he had previously only secretly built a small part of. In the end, he successfully completed it before Changsheng came to find him.

Before their deaths, these ancient clans thought they were going to escape Ziwei Star and find another place to rise again, but unexpectedly, when the great formation was activated, they all became nourishment.

The Quasi-Emperor Jinhua slowly appeared in the sky. His aura surged all the way up, allowing him to directly leap two levels and reach the seventh level of Quasi-Emperor.

However, this has indeed greatly damaged the foundation of Jinhua Quasi-Emperor. Originally, if things had proceeded step by step, the rebuilt Jinhua Quasi-Emperor would have had a chance to reach this level on his own.

However, his foundation is now mixed and his origin is no longer pure. Although he reached the seventh level of Quasi-Emperor in a very short time, the price is that it will be extremely difficult for him to break through again in the future.

A vast sea of ​​lightning lingered outside the Ziwei Star, refusing to dissipate for a long time. Because this level of heavenly tribulation posed too great a threat to the Ziwei Star, and could easily shatter it, the Ziwei Star's protective array spontaneously activated, effectively blocking the heavenly tribulation from reaching the star.

Changsheng's anger had reached its peak, but he calmed down instead, and said coldly, "How about a battle outside the heavens? I think you should undergo a tribulation first. Back then, Jin Xiao waited for me to undergo a tribulation before fighting me. Now I will wait for you to undergo a tribulation before I kill you with my own hands."
