Perfect World: Ten Crowns

Chapter 567 Sacrifice to the Willow God
"kill!"

At this moment, the battlefield of the sacrificial ceremony was extremely tragic. Blood mist filled the air, and broken bones were everywhere. The Great Dao and all rules had been reduced to nothingness.

In the endless, blurry chaos, only three young priests were fighting against an ultimate ancestor wielding a spiked club. Every collision shook the past, present, and future, and had a profound impact on countless timelines.

"We must break through one of them, even if it costs us everything! You will cover my retreat!" Xia Sheng roared, his eyes bloodshot. He knew he couldn't delay any longer.

After a terrifying collision, the ultimate progenitors separated again, becoming ten people. At this moment, Xia Sheng moved, offering up his heart's blood, condensing it on the sword, and slashing at the weakest orange progenitor, severing the river of time.

Keng!
At this moment, the sword light shone brightly, appearing simultaneously in the past and the future, and then condensing into the present. With a crack, accompanied by a massive amount of blood light, it directly ripped off the beautiful head of the female ancestor, exploding along with her primordial spirit.

"No, stop him quickly!"

Instantly, the ancestors of the plateau felt a chill in their hearts and unleashed their killing intent to extinguish the flames. However, the vast majority of these flames were blocked by the two great sacrificial daos, Huang Ye and others. Although the remaining power caused Xia Sheng's body to explode, it was only for a moment before his figure became solid again.

"Die!"

His black hair was disheveled, and he let out a loud roar. Although he was covered in blood, his fist light was unmatched. After smashing the two ancestral artifacts, he mixed with countless fragments of immortal gold and directly shredded the orange ancient coffin, which exploded in mid-air.

Then, the entire world suddenly sank, as if shrouded by some invisible field. Then, countless blood-red and killing lights collapsed towards a single point, as if an era had passed, or as if it were an instant, before spreading outwards in all directions once again.

Boom!

In an instant, the sky collapsed and the earth caved in, the universe was torn apart, the plateau trembled, and even the distant worlds were shaking, affected by the terrifying scene.

The first progenitor, eternal silence!

This greatly reduced the pressure on Xia Huangye and the other two.

However, this was only the beginning. Xia had spent far too much to break the synergy of the Ten Ancestors. Then came the Nine Ancestors' storm-like offensive, tearing apart the River of Time.

"kill!"

The nine ancestors spoke at the same time, their eyes deep and mysterious. Although the power of the ten ancestors had been broken, they were still the peerless progenitors, possessing the most powerful force in the world.

Now, all the progenitors are prioritizing their attacks on Xia Sheng.

puff!
Under such a ferocious attack, Xia Sheng suffered another heavy blow, his figure exploding several times. If it weren't for Huang Ye blocking part of it, he would probably be on the verge of death.

The moment he killed the orange progenitor who controlled destiny, he simultaneously faced the combined attack of the five progenitors, consuming too much of his Great Dao essence and nearly being unable to return.

Now, being targeted by the progenitor once again, the situation is naturally extremely dire.

"Okay?"

Ye Fan threw a punch, activating the Chaos Mother Cauldron to block the terrifying attack from the Red-haired Ancestor for Xia Sheng, and then asked with a worried expression.

The situation was even more brutal than they had imagined. The combined power of the ten patriarchs was far more terrifying than they had anticipated. The amount of primal power they had expended to kill the first person far exceeded their expectations.

"Don't worry, you can't die!"

Xia Sheng roared, his primordial spirit merging with his body, activating the sacrificial sword, cleaving through wave after wave of killing light. At this moment, he was like a wounded dragon and tiger, attacking all directions.

At this moment, only 50-60% of his original essence remained.

It was far less than I had imagined, with three or even four people being sacrificed.

It wasn't that he wasn't strong enough, but rather that the situation created by the unification of the ten patriarchs was too terrifying.

"You guys cover me, I'll handle this!"

At this moment, Shi Hao suddenly spoke. He nodded seriously to the two of them, then charged out with the sword embryo. Under their cover, after a fierce battle, another ancestor fell.

It was the newly promoted Gray Ancestor who was mercilessly disintegrated by the sword light. This made the other eight Ancestors feel a chill in their hearts. They wanted to come to the rescue, but they were all desperately blocked by Xia Huangye and the other two.

puff!
Accompanied by a massive amount of eerie blood-red light, the second progenitor perished, significantly easing the pressure on the three great priests. However, they had all exhausted most of their Dao essence. "So, shall we leave?"

Just as Ye Fan was about to speak, he suddenly looked behind him and saw a dazzling light suddenly appear in a distant, dark area, illuminating the past, present, and future.

To everyone's surprise, someone actually attacked the sacrificial path!
At this moment, everyone, including the eight progenitors, looked up.

It was a stunningly beautiful woman in white, barefoot and pure, stepping on ten thousand lotus flowers. Layer upon layer of magnificent rules and order broke apart, transforming into the purest sacrificial power.

"It's the Willow Goddess."

Xia Sheng spoke, glancing at Shi Hao's grim face, and shook his head slightly, saying, "Brother Shi, there's no need for further words. We must protect her and fight again!"

They absolutely had to protect the fourth young priest, even if it meant sacrificing their own avatars, to send the seed of hope away and wait for the future.

After all, the progenitor is not important; what matters is the plateau. Before discovering the mysteries beyond the Dao of Sacrifice, accumulating enough powerful Dao of Sacrifice experts is their primary plan.

"Fight! One by one, kill another!"

Ye Fan smiled, his face radiant, as the massive cauldron above his head slowly descended, carrying an incomparably heavy and powerful aura: "Since attaining the Dao, I have never killed such a powerful expert. If I don't kill one or two of them, wouldn't it make you two Dao brothers look down on me?"

boom!
After saying that, he took the lead and strode towards the two progenitors of Red and Silver, who were mortal enemies and had fought each other more than once.

As for Xia Sheng, he blocked the three ancestors of Green, Purple, and Chaos, leaving the three of them—Black, White, and Golden Scale—to Shi Hao, and launched a terrifying attack with Willow God as the point of contention.

"There are far too many variables!"

At this moment, the eight progenitors felt icy cold. They were absolutely certain that they could not allow the fourth sacrificial priest to be born, otherwise the current number might really break the deadlock.

Three against ten might still have some strength left, but four against ten gives them the confidence to turn the tide.

Rumble!
With this in mind, the eight progenitors spared no effort in their attack, even reaching the edge of Liu Shen's breakthrough zone. A wisp of aura overflowed, and a large part of the universe shattered.

"kill!"

Ye Fan roared and finally blocked the attack at the crucial moment.

Three against eight, if it were during their peak period, they would have been able to hold them off, but in the previous fierce battle, they had exhausted far too much of their strength.

The old forces have been exhausted, and the new forces have not yet been unleashed, which is why the eight founding ancestors attacked this place.

boom!
With this in mind, he no longer held back his magical power, exerting all his strength until his figure became blurred, and finally obliterated another one, the third red-haired ancestor, into eternal silence.

Of the ten founding ancestors, three have passed away, leaving only seven remaining.

Instantly, the remaining seven progenitors felt extremely displeased.

With the fall of the third person, the numerical balance between the two sides has returned to normal.

"Okay, good job!"

Upon seeing this, Xia Sheng laughed heartily. As the pressure eased, he was able to catch his breath. After taking a deep breath, he charged towards the Green Ancestor with great force, intending to leave one behind.

At this moment, Liu Shen has entered a critical stage of the attack and cannot be disturbed.

At the same time, Huang also moved, gathering all his killing moves and attacking the Golden Scale Ancestor with all his might. He was actually in sync with Xia Sheng, and one of them killed another.

"Three against ten is a bit weak, so let's go with three against five."

"No, it's four against five!"
