On the day of the sacrifice, Zhang Jianlai and Guan Mingyue went to the altar three kilometers away from the county seat.

At this time, the two of them met a beggar halfway.

The beggar was disheveled, his face was pale, his eyes were bloodshot, and he looked extremely haggard.

When the beggar saw Zhang Jianlai and Guan Mingyue, he seemed to have seen a savior. He threw himself at Zhang Jianlai's feet and cried bitterly: "Please, give me something to eat. I haven't eaten for two days." ..."

Hearing the beggar's words, Zhang Jianlai frowned slightly and thought to himself: "This world is really indifferent!"

Guan Mingyue also looked at the beggar in front of her with sympathy.

She took out some silver from her arms, handed it to the beggar and said, "You can use it, we don't have that much money with us..."

After the beggar took the money, he thanked Zhang Jianlai again: "Thank you, thank you..."

After the beggar finished speaking, he ran away in a hurry.

Zhang Jianlai and Guan Mingyue looked at each other and smiled bitterly.

Guan Mingyue sighed: "Hey, there are too many pitiful people in the world. It's really pitiful that such tragic things can happen in this world..."

Zhang Jianlai also nodded.

Not long after, they arrived at the altar.

Around the altar, a large number of tourists and worshipers have gathered.

After Zhang Jianlai and Guan Mingyue arrived near the altar, they were surrounded by the crowd.

Zhang Jianlai and Guan Mingyue were forced to squeeze into the corner, but they could clearly see the situation above the altar.

Above the altar, a young man in white robes sat cross-legged, and next to him stood an old woman in black.

The old woman in black was holding a fly whisk and was reciting some spell.

Suddenly, a harsh sound spread throughout the wilderness.

Everyone covered their ears with a look of horror on their faces.

At this time, the old woman in black suddenly stopped reciting the spell.

Under the gaze of everyone, the young man opened his eyes, and his eyes shot around like lightning.

At this moment, whether they were tourists or believers participating in the sacrifice, they all felt that they had been seen through, as if all their secrets were clearly seen by the young man.

Everyone's faces were filled with shock, uneasiness and fear. Even the old woman in black turned a little pale.

But then, the young man withdrew his gaze and continued to rest with his eyes closed.

Under the young man's gaze, the fear in everyone's hearts gradually disappeared and returned to calm.

I don’t know how long it took, but the guards of the altar finally appeared.

A man in the lead walked up to the old woman in black, bowed respectfully and said, "Teacher, the sacrifice is ready!"

Hearing this, the old woman in black showed a satisfied smile on her face, hummed softly, and said, "Put the things up!"

The member of the escort agreed and shouted to the believers around the altar: "Everyone, please give way and let our sacrifices go on stage!"

When all the believers heard this, they dispersed obediently.

Immediately, eight members of the escort team carried a large cauldron onto the altar and placed it on the platform above the altar.

This is the so-called "Nine Yang Mysterious Fire Cauldron".

The Jiuyang Xuanhuo Cauldron was red in color, with strange runes carved on its surface, and an extremely hot flame was burning inside the cauldron.

As soon as the Nine Yang Mysterious Fire Cauldron appeared, it attracted the attention of many people, and many believers could not help but crane their necks to look into the cauldron.

Zhang Jianlai and Guan Mingyue were also shocked by the scene in front of them.

Zhang Jianlai exclaimed: "Is this really the Nine Yang Mysterious Fire Cauldron?"

Guan Mingyue nodded and said: "It is said that the Nine Yang Xuanhuo Cauldron was once a magic weapon used by heaven to suppress evil spirits. It is extremely powerful. Unfortunately, it has been abandoned for many years for some reason. I don't know if it can still be used."

Speaking of this, Guan Mingyue suddenly thought of something and said: "This Nine Suns Mysterious Fire Cauldron was personally refined by the Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals. Although it has been abandoned for thousands of years, it still has great power! I don't know that this memorial ceremony Who is this person?"

Hearing Guan Mingyue's words, Zhang Jianlai was secretly surprised and said, "This person's identity is extraordinary! I wonder who he is?"

After saying that, the two of them turned their attention to the altar.

After the old woman recited a few spells, a golden dagger appeared in her palm.

Immediately, the old woman took the dagger and moved it several times in the void.

"Buzz buzz buzz~"

Accompanied by waves of low humming sounds, the Nine Yang Xuanhuo Cauldron slowly floated into the air, spinning continuously above the altar, emitting a burst of dazzling light.

Zhang Jianlai and Guan Mingyue were stunned.

Even the believers were dumbfounded.

At this moment, the old woman in black suddenly shouted at the Nine Yang Xuanhuo Cauldron: "Burning God!"

Following the order from the old woman in black, the Nine Yang Xuanhuo Cauldron suddenly erupted with bright red light, and then an extremely thick green snake flew out, rushed into the sky, and turned into a huge cloud, covering it. Live in the Nine Yang Xuanhuo Cauldron and then devour it completely.

After the Jiuyang Xuanhuo Cauldron was destroyed, a cry of exclamation suddenly sounded around.

Zhang Jianlai and Guan Mingyue also widened their eyes.

The old woman in black snorted coldly, turned around, and stared at Zhang Jianlai and Guan Mingyue with cold eyes.

Being stared at by the old woman in black, Zhang Jianlai and Guan Mingyue felt a deep sense of crisis, as if they were suffocating.

"This old woman in black is very strong, and I'm afraid she has at least reached the level of cultivation at the Tribulation Stage." Zhang Jianlai thought to himself.

Zhang Jianlai and Guan Mingyue couldn't help but look at each other.

Only now did the two of them realize that today's matter was not as simple as they thought.

This old woman actually has such strong strength, and what she just did on the altar showed her extraordinary status and power, so that Zhang Jianlai and Guan Mingyue did not dare to have any objections.

At this moment, the figure of the old woman in black suddenly appeared in front of Zhang Jianlai and Guan Mingyue.

"You two are today's sacrifices. I will use your blood to sacrifice to our gods and avenge our master!" The old woman in black sneered.

Zhang Jianlai and Guan Mingyue couldn't help but tremble in their hearts when they heard this.

"What? Use us to sacrifice their master?" Zhang Jianlai thought in his mind.

"Yes, I'm talking about you. Both of you will die in this sacrifice." The old woman said coldly.

When other believers heard this, they showed expressions of gloating.

"Sacrifice, why are you still standing there? Kneel on the ground!" The old woman in black shouted, "Someone is here."

"Yes, Master!" The eight escort members immediately responded and walked to Zhang Jianlai and Guan Mingyue.

Zhang Jianlai and Guan Mingyue couldn't help but feel a strong sense of fear in their hearts when they saw their ferocious faces.

"No, we have to escape!"

At this time, this idea flashed through Zhang Jianlai and Guan Mingyue's minds at the same time.

However, their bodies could not move at all.

"What's going on? These monks from the escort team are actually controlling us!" Zhang Jianlai and Guan Mingyue were secretly shocked.

But at this moment, Zhang Jianlai and Guan Mingyue felt that the appearance of the old woman in black suddenly became blurry and unclear.

In the end, the two of them felt that their eyelids were so heavy that they refused to obey their orders and slowly closed them, falling into a deep sleep.

"Boom!"

A loud noise sounded from the sky, and the entire altar shook.

On top of this altar, a whirlpool suddenly appeared.

The vortex grew larger and larger, and finally formed a pitch-black cavity, enveloping the entire altar.

This scene was like a portal, leaving the believers outside the altar in shock and uncertainty as to what was going on.

Just when everyone was shocked, the vortex suddenly disappeared very quickly.

When Zhang Jianlai and Guan Mingyue woke up, they only found themselves lying in a dilapidated house with no injuries at all.

Seeing Zhang Jianlai waking up, Guan Mingyue hurriedly asked: "Jianlai, how are you?"

"I'm fine." Zhang Jianlai said calmly, "Have we been sent off the altar?"

"Yes." Guan Mingyue nodded and said, "The moment we were teleported away, we suddenly felt a huge suction force, so we couldn't resist the suction force and fell into coma. In the past, when we woke up, we found that we had been teleported away from the altar."

Hearing this, Zhang Jianlai also breathed a sigh of relief.

"The power of this altar is so terrifying, I almost got swallowed up!" Zhang Jianlai said fearfully.

Guan Mingyue also looked solemn.

While the two were talking, suddenly there was a sound of footsteps at the door.

Immediately afterwards, two men and women wearing black robes and hoods appeared at the door.
