Deep in Crescent Mountain.
Withered and yellow scenes are even more common. The dry land is full of cracks. Although there are still many withered and yellow trees that are still tall and tall, they give people a sense of desolation and death in the desert.
A quiet village, located in Crescent Mountain, with two or three-story buildings stacked on top of each other, built in the shape of terraces next to the mountain.
Smoke curls from the kitchen.
There were no demonized beasts approaching.
This is a peaceful and peaceful village, but if anyone could see the people in the village, they would inevitably frown.
Some people wore black robes and masks, some had indifferent faces and walked by in a hurry, and most were just ordinary villagers with fanatical faces, like devout believers who could devote themselves to anything.
The east end of the village.
Two awakened persons of the fourth era wearing retro tawny robes hid under the shade of a tree and looked at the people passing by. One was middle-aged and the other was in his early thirties. Both had a symbol on their chest that represented "Final God". The coat of arms of the bishop.
"Uncle, when will it be our turn for the sacrifice? I can't wait to achieve the transcendental breakthrough!"
The man in his early thirties spoke.
The middle-aged man shook his head gently, "The blood sacrifice breakthrough is just an inferior choice. The strength after the breakthrough cannot compare with the true extraordinary, and it will exhaust all potential. It is not worth it."
"But... didn't the Divine Cult promise us that if we make great achievements, we would be given a chance to break through? Moreover, the Divine Cult often orders people below to bring in highly qualified children. If it is not for blood sacrifice, it cannot be to cultivate dead soldiers."
"Dead warriors?" The middle-aged man patted his eldest nephew on the shoulder, "You are still too young. With the strength of the divine sect, you need dead warriors. I guess those highly qualified children are also used for sacrifices, but not for Improve strength.”
"The family's method of blood sacrifice uses high-level awakened people as materials. Like us, if we want to forcibly break through the extraordinary, we need at least 10,000 awakened people above the tenth level. Supplemented with other materials, the sacrifice requirements can be reduced. Even so, with It's impossible to get it together with the current conditions... but it may be possible in a few years.
The sacrifices chosen by the divine sect are exactly the opposite. Instead, they choose children with low strength and young age. I don’t understand one thing. With the strength of those adults from the Divine Sect, it is not difficult to take over Tiannan and Xilin Provinces, but they don’t seem to be in a hurry... "
"It's for better governance. Right now, the cult's personnel are limited. Once it continues to grow, it can even be taken down without a single blow."
The young man expressed his opinion.
The middle-aged man stamped his feet, the trees behind him trembled, and the leaves flew down and turned yellow visible to the naked eye.
"Look at the environment under our feet, and then think about the teachings of the divine religion. It is not domination, but...destruction."
He sighed, and then lowered his voice, "Have you not noticed that since the Divine Religion established its headquarters here, it has never been harassed by demonized beasts? I guess the master of the Divine Religion's faith... also exists."
The young man's pupils shrank.
The middle-aged man's words gradually became fanatical, "The world is destined to be destroyed. Even if we are as powerful as the ancient spirits of the past, we cannot reverse the fate. But on the contrary, as long as we can truly become a member of the divine religion, break through the extraordinary, and reach a higher peak, we will all There are endless possibilities…”
The murmuring sounds gradually became inaudible.
The fanatical expression also returned to calmness, just like those expressionless people in the village, but only the madness deep in the eyes lingered.
…
In Crescent Mountain.
In order to wipe out the "Final Yan Cult", Pingliang Sanctuary dispatched a total of 8,000 awakened people this time. In addition to the 1,500 people who stayed outside, there were more than 6,000 people who entered the mountain.
The darkness was so thick that if there was enough time, it would be enough to turn this vast Crescent Mountain upside down.
"We have limited time, we must find the cult headquarters before other shelters!"
Only in this way can the lost face be restored, and more importantly... No matter whether the "Final God Religion" possesses a secret treasure or a method of blood sacrifice breakthrough, it must be found and firmly in hand.
By then, his own strength, including the strength of the shelter, will be able to advance by leaps and bounds.
The director of Taira Sanctuary thought so.
He even personally took command and led the thousands of most elite Awakened Ones to speed up the journey through mountains and rivers, splitting the blocking trees and rocks, and kept advancing.
"There's someone over there!"
Director Pingliang looked over.
There is a small hill in the distance with no trees and only a huge rock standing on the top of the hill. At this time, two people in yellow-brown robes were standing on the boulder.
Their eyes met each other from a distance.
Director Pingliang looked happy, "He must be a member of a cult."
Before he got carried away, he knew clearly that those who dared to show up at this time must be strong, so he immediately ordered: "Don't give them a chance to fight guerrillas. The first team and the second team will outflank them from both sides. Follow me and be careful to restrict the opponent's movements. It’s best to capture them alive and torture them to find out the location of the cult’s headquarters!”
…
"It doesn't matter whether we catch them alive or not. Defeating them quickly proves that we are better than others."
"Yes, uncle."
While talking.
Among the thousands of awakened people in the distance, dozens of them rushed over at top speed, running very fast among the rugged rocks. One of them raised his hand. On the boulder, under the feet of the uncle and nephew, a huge figure appeared. The chessboard appears.
The two people wearing yellow-brown robes were like two pawns on a huge chessboard. They could move freely, but their mobility was extremely limited. No matter how they moved, they could only advance a small square on the chessboard.
Special abilities, chessboard of heaven and earth.
"It's interesting, but the strength... is too weak."
The middle-aged man snorted coldly, and the binding force of the rules on the chessboard suddenly shattered. The ability user in the distance turned red and spurted out a mouthful of blood. He covered his chest and fell to his knees.
He kicked off his foot, and the boulder suddenly dented into a bowl-shaped hole, filled with dense cracks.
The middle-aged man was like an eagle flying over the sky. In less than a breath, he appeared in front of Pingliang's group of masters and swung out a powerful punch. A master at the ninth level next to him exploded with a bang from behind. Blood sprayed everywhere, and the master fell down like a balloon that had been drained of air.
Killed instantly with one move, the middle-aged man kept moving.
Even with top-level combat power, you can only see an afterimage flashing in your eyes. Ordinary ninth-level peak masters are not the enemy of Yihe.
The young man also flew down from the boulder. He did not rush towards the master group, but crossed over and rushed into the Awakened Army behind. Like a sheep among the tigers, the light of his sword flashed, and in an instant, there were several and dozens of people torn into pieces. .
Director Pingliang's eyes were red.
Didn't it mean that there are only one or a few strong men of the Fourth Age in the "Final Cult"
Obviously they were just one of the forces on the Eighteenth Route to suppress the cult, but they happened to bump into two of them.
Forget it about Luyin and Yangcheng, now even the evil cult is targeting Pingliang.
Why!
