Another day later, two golden elixir masters from the Underworld Demon Sect, more than 20 foundation-building experts, and more than 2,000 Qi-training monks who had been recruited returned. At the same time, more than a hundred Underworld Demons returned. The disciples taught during the Qi training period.
The leader of the Huangquan Demon Sect also sent people to bring over the first batch of Qi-training disciples, a total of 1,500.
Lei Gang saw that so many people in the Qi training period had suddenly increased, and the depression in his heart disappeared a lot.
But when he saw the disciples of his sect, he still felt a little uncomfortable, so he quietly issued an order to use captured and recruited people as much as possible, and his disciples would go in later.
As the crowd continued to expand, it was no longer possible to imprison these people on the spacecraft, so simple houses were built nearby and housing was allocated to everyone.
The accommodation conditions were pretty good, with four people sharing a room. There were tables and beds in the room, and there was even a place to meditate and practice in each room.
This is of course done to appease people, to make them relax as much as possible and temporarily forget about the disaster they are facing. Otherwise, if thousands of disciples in the Qi training stage rebel together, even if they are suppressed bloody, the losses will be too great.
As the saying goes, the sheep bites the wolf when it is anxious.
If all these people knew that entering the secret realm to explore the path would lead to death, of course they would not sit back and wait for death, and they would risk their lives even though they knew they would die.
At this time, outside the secret realm, it has become a huge training camp. A wall has been built around it. There are accommodations, practice rooms, canteens, etc. inside. If an uninformed person breaks in, they will think that this is the Underworld Demon Sect. We are convening disciples for training.
It's really like a training camp here.
Most of the monks didn't know the truth and thought that the Underworld Demon Sect had discovered a new secret realm and planned to send them into it to collect medicine and mine.
Of course, there is a certain risk in entering the secret realm, but according to the convener, the risk is not great, and the reward is very high.
There are many stories in the world of cultivation about people entering secret realms to explore and hunt for treasures. Many big figures today have skyrocketed because they entered secret realms and obtained rare elixirs or ancient treasures.
Therefore, the atmosphere in the camp was not depressing, and there was even a cheerful atmosphere.
Ye Xiaocheng was the first group to enter this camp. After coming up from the basement, their request for a life of wine and meat was basically realized.
Although the wine given to them was mediocre, the meat was real monster meat, and the meat contained a certain amount of spiritual energy. This made those who almost had a nervous breakdown in the basement relax a lot, and even had fantasies: Since the underworld demon If you teach them so well, maybe they won't die in vain.
"Your Majesty? When will we let these people in?" In the attic of the huge ship, a Jindan master bowed to Lei Gang and asked for instructions.
"Wait a while, gather five thousand people, and start entering." Lei Gang thought for a while and said.
"Excuse me for my stupidity, why do you need to gather 5,000 people before taking action? There are already so many people, enough to explore a path." Master Jindan asked.
"It will take a long time to find out the safe path step by step! It will take years and months to find out the safe path! A more ruthless and faster method must be adopted!" Lei Gang said with a gloomy face.
"Your Majesty means..." Master Jin Dan seemed to understand, but he still couldn't believe it.
"Yes, it's just what you guessed, a blood sacrifice." Lei Gang said indifferently.
The so-called blood sacrifice means massacre, using a large amount of blood to wash away those formations and restrictions.
Whether it is the blood of humans or monsters, it is highly corrosive and can corrode and dissolve the power of formations or restrictions.
This bloodiest and cruelest practice is not uncommon in the world of cultivation, especially when developing a newly discovered secret realm. Blood sacrifice is the last resort to break the powerful formation.
I remember that when the secret realm of the Immortal Ruins was first discovered, several major sects worked together and used the blood of thousands of mortals and the blood of millions of monsters to open the entrance to the Immortal Ruins.
When it was further developed, tens of thousands of Qi-training monks were slaughtered and their blood was used to forcefully open a safe path.
These sects have obtained numerous treasures of heaven and earth in the Immortal Ruins Secret Realm, many of which are only found in the Immortal Realm. In order to compete for the immortal weapon, several major factions started a war that lasted for hundreds of years.
Several sects that made great fortunes in the Immortal Ruins Secret Realm reached their peak in a short period of time, but within a few hundred years, they gradually declined and eventually all died.
Later generations attributed their demise to excessive killing, and God's retribution was inevitable.
Since then, large-scale blood sacrifices have been banned. Even evil sects such as the Huangquan Demon Sect and the Blood Demon Sect dare not use them for fear of retribution from God.
There are cycles of heaven and karma in the world, and no one can be an exception, and evil people do not dare to make mistakes.
Now Lei Gang is in a hurry, so he wants to use the extreme method he used when developing the Immortal Ruins Secret Realm again.
As for whether he would suffer retribution, he didn't care. Since the leader wanted to assign 10,000 disciples to him, of course he understood what the leader meant, but the leader would not give him clear instructions, but he had to Follow the leader's instructions.
Three days later, the Huangquan Sect recruited more than 2,000 people, barely enough to make up 5,000 people.
So the first group of people were deceived into the secret realm. Before they entered the secret realm, their storage bags were taken away and they were given an empty storage bag. They were told to let them enter and collect the elixirs and ores. Put them all in this storage bag and no one is allowed to keep them privately.
There were a thousand people in this group.
Ye Xiaocheng was not among the first batch of candidates. When the formation at the entrance to the secret realm was opened, he felt a throbbing feeling.
The source of this throbbing was actually the stone tablet that tripped him.
He had put the stone tablet into the storage ring, and there had been no movement, but now it suddenly flew out of the storage ring.
This frightened Ye Xiaocheng.
His storage ring is hidden in the sea of consciousness. This ring is not an ordinary storage ring, but an immortal ring with special restrictions on it.
This ordinary stele, which looks like a piece of stone, actually looks like a living thing. It can fly out of the forbidden storage ring, which can scare people to death.
What he was afraid of was not that the stone tablet would be discovered, but that someone would discover the immortal ring he had hidden in the sea of consciousness.
Now the Lingxiao Sword Sect, the Underworld Demon Sect and the Blood Demon Sect are trying their best to capture him, isn't it because of this ring?
As soon as the stone tablet flew in front of him, a tsunami-like sound suddenly came from the secret realm, and then he saw a hurricane rushing out from the entrance of the secret realm like a wave. Also rushed out by this hurricane were more than a thousand people who entered. , but these people have now become corpses.
Everyone outside was stunned, not knowing what happened.
Lei Gang was also frightened when he saw this situation. The formation he had spent expensive materials to build had been smashed to pieces by the hurricane, and the aura of the formation fell in front of his eyes like a layer of ash.
"It's over, it's all over." Lei Gang's heart suddenly sank into the bottomless abyss.
What does it mean if the formation is destroyed?
It probably means that the entrance to the secret realm will be closed again, or even the secret realm will disappear into the void space again and disappear without a trace.
If this were the case, the leader might really skin him alive, even if he was already the ancestor of Nascent Soul.
"Hurry up and rearrange the formation." Lei Gang shouted loudly.
As soon as he shouted this, more than a dozen formation mages hurried over to check the destroyed formation, hoping that the foundation of the formation was still there, so that they could be saved by repairing it.
If the foundation of the formation is completely destroyed, it will be impossible to rearrange a formation in a short period of time.
Is it difficult to create a formation? The formation itself is not difficult. The difficulty lies in the fact that the materials required for the fourth-level high-grade formation are too expensive and too rare.
"How could this happen?" Lei Gang wanted to catch someone and ask what happened inside.
Unfortunately, no one came out at all. Everyone who went in was washed out by the hurricane, and they all died on the spot. No one survived.
Several Jindan masters hurried over to check the dead bodies, but could not see anything fishy in them.
There were no injuries on these people's bodies, and even their clothes were not damaged. There was no way to find out the cause of their death.
