Chapter 1476: Heavenly Sacrifice

Chapter 1484 Heaven Sacrifice

After saying this, Qu was sweating all over, and he no longer dared to persuade Su Wu to make Sui a human sacrifice!

Sui was originally very scared in his heart - after all, it was Qu who was talking to the mysterious person now, and he often couldn't get a word in, worried that the other party would deal with him at will - this was also a common thing nowadays, but the other party's words now immediately calmed his heart, and he then became a little curious, wondering where the "other place" that the mysterious person said was from elsewhere?

But human sacrifices are rare in Zhoudi?

Everything is ready.

Priest Qu stood on the altar made of stones, with some firewood piled in front of him, a string of tortoise shells hanging on his body, and the mineral oil paint on his face, which had faded a little, was repainted again, and a grotesque face replaced his original face.

According to Qu himself, this kind of face is the "Nuo mask".

He could avoid many unknown disasters by worshipping the gods in the Temple of Heaven with a Nuo mask.

Qu took out a blank tortoise shell from the tortoise shells on his body. He muttered something and took out a stone mixed with jade and a few scattered bronze nails from his bag. Every time he chanted a spell, he used the stone to wedge a bronze nail into the blank tortoise shell.

After the five bronze nails representing the ‘five directions of the earth’ were randomly wedged into different positions on the tortoise shell, he put away the stone and stuffed the tortoise shell under the pile of unburned firewood.

——Only the gods can predict the whereabouts of Su Wu’s heart. What he has to do next is to worship the five gods of the earth in the Temple of Heaven and ask the gods to give a prediction on the tortoise shell.

Su Wu stood under the altar, watching the progress of this ancient ritual.

As the person who asked the gods to descend, he should accompany the priests during the sacrifice, while Sui hid under a tree far away, away from the ritual of the sacrifice. As a person who was left behind, he could actually participate in the sacrifice and get some of the leftovers left after the gods descended.

However, because the Gechang tribe and the Shang Dynasty were at odds, although the news had not yet spread, the gods in the Temple of Heaven must have known everything. Can he, who was a person of mutual hostility with them, get the leftovers in the same sacrifice? It is still unknown.

Although the Shang Dynasty and Gechang worshipped the same Temple of Heaven, the gods they worshipped were different.

If a war broke out between the two, the gods in the Temple of Heaven would also be hostile to each other, and would bring disaster to the tribesmen and slaves of the other side when they found an opportunity!

Therefore, in order to avoid unexpected events, Sui took the initiative to propose not to participate in this sacrifice.

The firewood in front of the priest Qu had not yet burned - the gods needed to communicate with the Nuo on his body, and he would spit out purple flames to burn the firewood in front of him and obtain the divination result of this sacrifice.

He slapped the ancient musical instrument and started the primitive and weird dance.

As Qu twisted his limbs, Su Wu also opened his eyes. He saw the twisted shadows of the two snakes entwined with each other in the center of the priest Qu's flesh and blood spirit - Qu's "Nuo" stood up like a flag in an instant!

The shadows of the two snakes connected the top of the head and navel of the priest Qu with their tails, and the snake heads tried to swim towards the top of the sky.

The shadows spread over the layers of clouds and mist, showing an ominous charm. The snake heads opened their mouths wide and uttered syllables that were exactly the same as the vague spells recited by Qu.

The ominous aura spread around the altar and turned into a mist-like shadow, covering the surrounding grass and trees, causing them to wither.

The ominous mist seemed to have its own consciousness. It drifted away from Su Wu's body, not making any contact with his figure at all, and dared not try to soak his figure with itself.

Looking at the ominous aura spreading from the shadows of the two snakes, Su Wu suddenly realized that this ominous aura combined with the human figure in the human body, which symbolized the origin, would form the "Si Yu", which was the distorted shadow combined with the incomplete human figure in the body of the warrior that Su Wu saw when he first sacrificed.

People of Si Yu can also use the power of "God" a little, but they are far less powerful than the Nuo master like him!

Judging from the ominous aura of the remaining sacrifices emanating from the ‘Nuo’, if the origin of a person is contaminated by this aura, he will definitely encounter various disasters and ominous diseases. In this way, it seems more like priests like Qu have inherited the ‘Nuo’ left by ‘Gui’.

After its origin has completely blended with Nuo, it continues to emit the ‘remaining aura of sacrifices’, allowing ordinary people to inherit it. These priests seem to have transferred the price they should have borne to ordinary people like Sui!

Then, Li Gui, who is called a god, left the ‘Nuo’ on a person like Qu who is special in nature. Is he also transferring a certain price he should bear to a priest like Qu?

Where does Gui’s price come from?

Where does Gui come from?

Su Wu’s eyes were burning, and he felt a kind of confusion and joy in his heart that he was gradually approaching the truth of the matter, but he could never break through that layer of window paper.

Now that his three parts were broken and his five internal organs were gone, he no longer had the ‘human origin’ that attracted the evil spirits and Nuo. Therefore, he could not personally verify the evil of ‘Nuo’, but he could always use other people to verify it. Sui, who was hiding under a tree in the distance, saw the mysterious man turn his head and look at him meaningfully, and was immediately confused.

He had not yet thought deeply about the meaning of the mysterious man's eyes, and the next moment, his attention was attracted to the channel on the altar.

A tornado blew over the head of the channel!

The rolling dust, grass and trees were swept away by the strong wind, and the tornado turned from invisible to visible above the head of the priest Qu!

Su Wu stood under the altar and saw the current situation more clearly and understood what was happening next. He saw the twin snakes Nuo rising from the source of the Qu, suddenly circling in the sky. Its whirl brought bursts of madness and merged into that fierce tornado.

The strong wind continuously transmitted the whispering of the twin snakes Nuo to all directions.

In the originally clear and bright world, a wisp of strange rhyme floated in the blink of an eye. In Su Wu's eyes, the sky became a collection of various colors like an oil painting. In those strange rhymes, a series of fierce and strange shapes stood in them. They stood in layers in the shape of a tower. The closer the fierce and strange shapes were to the zenith, the stronger the strange rhyme they exuded!

The shadows of these fierce and strange shapes were also very different from the fierce and strange shapes that Su Wu saw in later generations.

Even these strange transformations are stained with some "human aura", and each of them is deeply connected with the "divine charm of heaven".

Some strange transformations have several pig heads but human bodies;

Some strange transformations have tumors all over their bodies and eagle claws all over their bodies;

Some strange transformations are like a meat ball, but with tiger faces all over them...

Although the various strange transformations have terrifying faces, they are not as terrifying as the various strange transformations in later generations. For people, the most terrifying appearance is undoubtedly the miserable and broken appearance of their own kind. However, these strange transformations now have many more animal characteristics than "human" characteristics!

"The Ligui transformation is the projection of Ligui's original form, which is actually not much different from Ligui's original form.

From the current Ligui transformations, they are actually very different from the "gui" people in later generations know. They are not pure gui, each of them seems to have some residual consciousness, and they are closely related to the way of heaven - the merchants call them "gods", which is actually not wrong."

Su Wu looked at the Ligui transformations of the "double snake Nuo" surrounding the canal in the sky, and his mind flashed.

As his mind was racing, the double snake Nuo started from the bottom Ligui transformation and contacted each so-called "god" one by one, as if communicating with each other.

At this time, Su Wu sensed that the gods in the sky were looking at him vaguely.

Those gods should have received the news from the double snake Nuo, and they were also evaluating whether they could complete the tasks entrusted by Su Wu.

Su Wu looked at Qu, who was sweating profusely as his dancing movements became more and more intense on the altar. He looked a little strange - he wondered if Qu could attract so many gods to gather here when he performed sacrifices in the past, as he did now?

He always felt that today's scene was unique to Qu.

What attracted so many gods to be densely packed in the sky? Was it the offering of the evil head in the pit that was extremely tempting to the gods?

Or was it Su Wu himself?

Su Wu soon got the answer - it was the incomplete evil in the pit that attracted the gods in the sky!

None of the gods at the bottom, which were the largest in number, dared to respond to Su Wu's request. They gathered and dispersed.

The double snake Nuo contacted the gods on the second-to-last layer.

After the double snake heads communicated with the third god on the second-to-last layer, the god suddenly fell from the sky and suddenly landed on the priest Qu!

His body suddenly froze, and his dancing stopped instantly!

He held his abdomen, which was wriggling violently, with signs of vomiting something. Su Wu had seen him react like this at the previous sacrifice. He guessed that the third stone-shaped spirit in tiger skin that the Twin Snakes Nuo communicated with had made his request, so he descended on him and gave clear guidance!

Next, he should vomit out flames, light the firewood in front of him, and burn the tortoise shell under the firewood!

- Things should have developed like this, but his body was convulsing, his mouth was wide open, but he could not vomit out a ball of flame. Instead, a blazing black fire with the charm of heaven and earth surged out of his pores!

The flames did not burn his clothes and flesh, but burned the tiger-skin stone-shaped spirit attached to him out of his body. The tiger-skin stone-shaped spirit had no time to escape and turned into ashes in the blazing "heavenly fire"!

A wisp of black fire traveled through the strange rhyme of the sky and traced back to the distance!

During the sacrifice, Qu, who was in a daze, suddenly saw the tiger-skin stone-shaped god's original body being entangled by a line of black fire that was traced back, and was directly torn into pieces!

When the tiger-skin stone-shaped god was torn into pieces, several gods suddenly appeared around it, snatching, dividing, and occupying its torn body for themselves!

Not only did this god lose the incarnation that came to the sacrifice, but even its body was snatched away by other gods, and it disappeared from then on!

It coveted the sacrifice of this sacrifice and rashly responded to the double snake Nuo, but it was completely unable to complete Su Wu's request to find its own five internal organs. It may also have encountered some kind of accident in the process of finding Su Wu's five internal organs, and was directly destroyed!

On the altar.

Qu continued his frantic dance.

For some unknown reason, he suddenly became much thinner, with sunken eye sockets and high cheekbones.

The twin snake Nuo hovering above his head like a leopard tail flag suddenly covered his body with a colorful tiger skin.

——The tiger skin stone spirit landed on him, leaving traces of "Nuo" on him. Its Nuo combined with his own twin snake Nuo, and a layer of colorful tiger skin grew on the twin snake Nuo.

Many gods and spirits were incarnated in the sky.

They saw the fate of the tiger-skin stone-shaped spirit, so all the spirit forms hovering in the sky retreated in an instant, leaving only the twin snakes swinging their bodies in vain in the sky where all the aura had dissipated.

Su Wu frowned slightly as he saw that this sacrifice was about to end in vain.

He knew that the journey to find the five internal organs would not be that easy, so he frowned and sighed, and then he calmed down.

As the sacrifice came to an end, Qu's body became thinner and thinner, and he was already completely skinny.

If it continued like this, not only would Su Wu not be able to obtain any clues related to his own five internal organs, but he might even sacrifice his life in this sacrifice, which was not Su Wu's original intention. Su Wu stepped forward and was about to walk onto the altar to forcibly stop the ritual when the tiger-skinned twin-snake Nuo that was swaying in the sky suddenly straightened up.

Su Wu looked up at the sky and saw that the tiger-skinned twin-snake Nuo was grabbed by a blurry hand on the sky, which stretched it straight!

The hand covered the sky and sun, and it came here without any sound, and even Su Wu did not notice it.

It broke through the sky and once it came, it rendered the entire sky black, and a heavy and ominous strange rhyme filled the sky!

The tiger-skinned twin-snake Nuo that was stretched straight in an instant fell back into the center of the flesh and blood of the priest Qu in the next instant. Su Wu did not see the owner of the hand that broke through the sky and sky attached to Qu, so Qu held his abdomen and violently vomited large balls of black flames!

This kind of flame is exactly the same as the black fire that burned the tiger-skin stone spirit before!

"Is this the Emperor of Heaven?"

When Su Wu saw the black fire igniting the firewood and the surrounding stones, a thought suddenly came to his mind.

The Emperor of Heaven is the master of the universe.

All kinds of creation and the charm of heaven are controlled by him.

The palm that pierced through the sky gave off an aura that rendered the entire sky, and the charm of heaven was filled and flowing inside!

So Su Wu guessed that the owner of that palm might be the 'Emperor of Heaven'!

The priest called it 'Ten Thousand Bodies of the Emperor of Heaven', that is, the 'Emperor of Heaven' has different incarnations, and any powerful god has the possibility of becoming an incarnation of the Emperor of Heaven, so maybe this palm that covered the sky and the sun is itself one of the incarnations of the Emperor of Heaven!
