Witch Wind

Chapter 249: Return of the Ancient Witch (Part )

Dongyun.

Nakajima.

In the imperial capital Black Dragon City, in a vast underground palace hundreds of miles deep, a bloody sacrifice is going on.

Nanshan and Beihe, the two major rulers.

Also, over the years, the Nanshan family, the Beihe family, and the 'Yu family' and 'Nei family' that emerged from intermarriage with the indigenous nobles of Dongyun, all of the big families with the blood of Hu Hai, Xu Fu, and Yamatai, except for a very small number of 'cultivation seeds' with excellent qualifications, all of the millions of clansmen fainted and lay neatly on the ground.

Regardless of gender, age or status, everyone was cleaned and shaved, just like a freshly shaved pig hanging on an iron hook in a slaughterhouse. Even the hair on their heads and awkward parts of their bodies was shaved clean by the skilled craftsmen.

They even smeared their bodies with sweet-smelling ointments and essential oils that had the scent of flowers.

They were knocked unconscious by the secret drug, lying quietly on the ground with sweet smiles, one next to the other. The huge underground palace, which was constructed according to the concept of the earth being round and the sky being square, was a hundred miles long on all sides. The huge underground palace was completely covered with white flesh, and not even a palm-sized piece of ground could be seen.

In the center of the underground palace, the bones of one hundred thousand people were pieced together to form a bloody altar.

All the bones were taken alive after being killed, and after being processed with witchcraft and secret techniques, the muscles and tendons attached to the fresh bones were still wriggling like living things. The flesh and blood were intertwined and pieced together, like super glue, tightly connected into one.

To be exact, it was the bones and blood of 108,000 carefully selected Dongyun natives, whose birth dates were carefully considered, that formed this altar. Their ghosts were imprisoned in the altar, fused with their flesh, blood, and bones. They clearly sensed the endless pain in their "remaining bodies", and they howled hysterically.

Xu Fu, Hu Hai, Zhao Gao, and Yamatai, the four most important people in Dongyun, gathered under the altar with embarrassed faces. It was obvious that Hu Hai and Zhao Gao stood shoulder to shoulder, with a gloomy wind around them, phosphorous fire on their sleeves, and a trace of extremely sinister aura looming behind them.

They were extremely cautious, keeping a distance of about ten feet between them and Xu Fu and Yamatai. In front of them, there were three layers of subtle dim lights looming. They had already set up defensive restrictions. If Xu Fu and Yamatai made any unusual movements, the two would immediately fight to the death!

On the floor of this underground palace, the people sleeping quietly with strange smiles on their faces are all their direct descendants - among them, there are many who are direct descendants of Xu Fu and Yamatai for countless generations.

These two old cunning men could abandon these people so easily... then, it is not impossible for them to attack them both.

According to Hu Hai and Zhao Gao's understanding of Xu Fu and Yamatai, these two old monsters have become more and more obsessed in recent years. There is not much humanity left in them. They have almost degenerated into demons... If they are not careful, they will be in a catastrophic disaster.

But they still can't do without these two old monsters.

Times are tough, let’s band together for warmth!

Xu Fu and Yamatai seemed to be standing side by side, but it was obvious that there was no "closeness" between them like Hu Hai and Zhao Gao. There was about three feet between their shoulders, and in this narrow three-foot space, there was also a faint light moving slightly, like rippling water.

They also set up extremely terrifying and vicious defensive restrictions against each other, for fear that the other party would suddenly attack them.

There is so much caution between the two of them, but they can't live without the other.

Having been lovers for many years and working together for so many years, they clearly knew what kind of bastard the other was. If they had the chance, they would kill each other without hesitation - but facing the alliance of Hu Hai and Zhao Gao, no matter how reluctant they were, they could only continue to make peace with each other.

Everything is ready.

Xu Fu stood with his hands behind his back, with an ancient bronze oil lamp floating quietly beside him. The bronze lamp was shaped like a mountain, and on the top of the mountain there was a eagle flapping its wings as if ready to fly. In the eagle's mouth, there was a spark of seven-colored fire. From the inside out, the seven layers of flames were clearly defined, like crystal glass, extremely gorgeous and lovely.

This little flame is ancient, majestic, grand and solemn. If you stare at it carefully for a long time, you will see many strange visions.

Right in front of you is the Eight Treasures Pond, with various Buddhist lotuses growing inside, celestial dragons flying around, and red phoenixes dancing. Under the overwhelming Bodhi trees, countless Buddhist monks are sitting quietly, reciting scriptures in a low voice.

Then, there was even a faint scent of sandalwood floating in front of the nose, and the sound of chanting was "humming and murmuring" like waves sweeping over. After listening for a long time, in the sky full of Buddha light, you can vaguely see a gaunt ancient Buddha, covered in blood, lying in a broken coffin inlaid with seven treasures.

Such a magical ancient lamp is obviously a Buddhist treasure.

It was just this two-foot-tall ancient lamp, with its tiny light emitting a strong Buddhist atmosphere. The lamp itself was covered with tiny but extremely ferocious claw and tooth marks. Strands of terrifying evil energy continued to pour out from these marks, and with shrill screams, they transformed into countless phantoms of demons and quickly flew away into the surrounding void.

However, that little light was extremely mysterious. A circular light with a diameter of three feet enveloped the entire lamp. The frantically fleeing shadows of demons and monsters would be annihilated by the power of Buddha with a shrill scream as soon as they touched the circular light.

If you look carefully, you can see that at the top of the ancient lamp, the three pairs of wings of the eagle that was flapping its wings to fly have all been broken, and its neck has been hit hard by an unknown weapon, almost breaking its entire head.

Because of this tragic trauma, the light in the mouth of the eagle was extremely dim. Every few breaths, the light that looked like a piece of glass crystal would flicker and seem like it could go out at any time.

Hu Hai and Zhao Gao kept looking at this ancient lamp which was extremely mysterious and yet inexplicably exuded a ferocious and terrifying aura.

They knew very well that the biggest reason why Xu Fu hid under the ancient volcano all these years and allowed Hu Hai and Zhao Gao to control the entire Dongyun was because of this ancient lamp of unknown origin. They were sure that when they first came to this world and were hunted down by the Emperor Zulong and fled to the Dongyun Islands in a hurry, Xu Fu definitely did not have this ancient lamp in his hand.

This ancient lamp has definitely been in Xu Fu's hands for no more than two hundred years.

It really is like seeing a ghost.

Is this good fortune a good thing for him?
Xu Fu tapped the ancient lamp with his finger. He looked like a fairy. A twisted murderous look flashed across his old face. He slowly swept his eyes over the densely packed bodies on the ground: "Hey, they are all our descendants!"

Yamatai chuckled strangely, and she shouted impatiently: "Okay, you hypocrites from the Celestial Empire are going to be killed anyway, why are you pretending to be merciful here?"

"Descendants and grandchildren? Haha, sons give birth to sons, grandchildren give birth to grandchildren, and descendants are endless!"

"It was our bloodline that gave them life, and it was us who conquered the world and granted them all these years of prosperity and wealth... They owe us too much. Isn't it only natural that we should repay their insignificant lives and souls?"

Yamatai shouted sternly: "I can't wait any longer. I have heard the whispers of the witch god. They can't wait to return to this world."

Yamatai suddenly raised her hands, her whole body glowing with a green evil light that made the entire underground palace look like a demonic realm. A fierce wind blew, and the sounds of ghosts and wolves howled. Yamatai shouted, "That kid named Xing Tianli stole the five divine messengers sent down by the witch god. I will settle this account with him!"

Xu Fu and Hu Hai looked at each other.

Hu Hai nodded slowly.

Xu Fu sighed softly and gently wiped his beard with his right hand. He chanted a spell in a low voice, and then he heard the sound of Sanskrit chanting. The light suddenly dimmed, and the countless tiny scars on the lamp, the terrifying evil spirit suddenly became fierce, and countless phantoms of demons and monsters roared out from those scars, and madly collided with the small circle of halo.

Xu Fu waved his hand, and the ancient lamp flew up lightly and landed on the altar made of one hundred thousand bones and blood.

On the altar, countless ghosts condensed in bones and flesh roared together. The power of the ghosts attracted the demonic aura in the ancient lamp. The tiny colorful Buddha flame could no longer stop the escape of those demonic shadows.

There was only a very slight explosion sound, and the circle of light wrapped around the ancient lamp shattered. A bunch of demonic phantoms formed by evil spirits roared out, but were swallowed by the altar involuntarily. The bloody, red and white altar turned black and gray in an instant. The bones squirmed like a living thing, and small hideous faces quietly emerged on the black and red bones. Along with the harsh sound of bones rubbing against each other, each bone of the altar was shaking wildly, and layers of fine reverse swastika Buddhist seals spewed evil light and continued to grow from the bones.

In the underground palace, millions of nobles from the Nanshan family, Beihe family, and the major "Yu family" and "Nei family" groaned at the same time. There was no sword or weapon, and blood kept flowing out of their bodies. Their internal organs were squirming, as if there were countless tiny blades in a juicer, beating their internal organs into fine plasma, which was mixed with blood and water and seeped out from their pores.

The rolling blood plasma was like a tide, continuously flowing along the small ditches on the ground towards the altar.

The dark grey altar emitted a dazzling blood light, and countless phantoms of demons appeared from all around the altar. Above the altar, wisps of blood condensed into wriggling and twisted Bodhi trees. The phantoms of demons sat cross-legged under the bloody Bodhi trees like Arhat monks, shaking their heads and chanting strange scriptures.

Xu Fu, Hu Hai, Zhao Gao and Yamatai listened attentively.

These mantras are like Buddhist scriptures, but they are also somewhat confusing. They are mixed with a large number of ancient witchcraft methods, and they are all the cruelest and most evil in the ancient witchcraft, pointing directly to the darkest and most negative path in the great way of heaven and earth.

Between heaven and earth, there is light and there is darkness; there is good and there is evil; there is righteousness and there is evil.

In the ancient witchcraft, there is no shortage of "moral" magical powers to cure diseases, save lives, pray for blessings and ward off disasters. Similarly, there are also some people who are too curious about the way of heaven and earth and are obsessed with the pursuit of power.

Perhaps the ancestors of the ancient human race lived in a harsh environment. Power, pure, absolute power, was the most direct and urgent demand of the ancient witches. As long as they could get power, they would use any means - and dark, negative means were the easiest way to get power.

Taboo witchcraft came into being from this.

The method Xu Fu used at this moment was the bloodiest and cruelest of the ancient forbidden witchcraft, which had been strictly prohibited by all dynasties and had even been destroyed long ago.

The flesh and blood of millions of living people were devoured by the altar.

Under the stimulation of the evil force, the human skins of men, women, old and young turned into something like melted rubber. The pieces of human skin glued together to form soft felt, which was evenly spread on the ground.

These sticky, soft human skins, driven by evil power, squirmed and twisted. Horrible monster faces kept appearing on the human skins. The soft human skins were pulled long, and the monster faces roared and slowly rose from the ground.

The dark eye holes, the dark mouth, and the monster's face all took a deep breath.

Then, there was a surge of wind and clouds between heaven and earth.

This world was originally in the Dharma Ending Age.

But these days, as the people from the Committee and the Pantheon opened up the world channels, the turbid primordial Qi continued to surge out from those world channels.

Outside the city of Yingjishi, in the deep mountains, in the huge rift valley.

The sky was overcast and drizzling, but energetic men were still happily playing various ball games in the rain. Under large parasols, women in cool clothes were lying on beach chairs, drinking delicious red wine and various beverages, and laughing and commenting on the clear muscle lines of the men.

Suddenly, the entire valley shook violently.

The deep purple space crack in the world passage that was several miles wide suddenly expanded outward for several miles.

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh." The majestic primordial Qi originally came in waves, flowing evenly along the world channel into this world. But at this moment, this world seemed to suddenly turn into a black hole. Some terrifying invisible force was madly extracting the primordial Qi from the opposite side of this world channel.

In the blink of an eye, the speed of the Primordial Qi pouring in from the world channel soared a hundred times, and the speed at which the Primordial Qi poured out continued to soar.

It is visible to the naked eye that the originally invisible and traceless Primordial Qi, because of its outrageous surging speed, has accumulated into colorful rainbows visible to the naked eye in an instant. The high concentration of Primordial Qi has instantly turned into real waves that seem to be hitting towards them.

Throughout the rift valley, the metal barracks made a few "crackling" sounds. Under the impact of the Primordial Qi, these metal barracks instantly cracked into countless cracks.

The blond men and women in the rift shouted in unison. They instinctively sensed the coming crisis. Their bodies were quickly wrapped in heavy armor. Surrounded by dim light, they exerted all their strength and transformed into human-shaped light sources, illuminating the entire rift.

The next moment, the surging primordial Qi, with a terrible sound of explosion, turned into a raging hurricane, sweeping across the entire rift valley.

The sky was filled with barrack debris, and the armor of the blond men and women was torn into countless cracks. They were spitting out blood, like catkins in a hurricane, and were blown away along the rift valley involuntarily, and were blown hundreds of miles away in the blink of an eye.

'Buzz'!
At the exit of the rift, a colorful flood flashed by, and the mountains and forests within a radius of hundreds of miles collapsed in an instant. Countless small animals and insects hiding in the mountains and forests to secretly absorb the primordial Qi, their bodies exploded instantly, turning into blood mist that spread all over the sky.

The torrent roared and rushed along the mountains. A colorful torrent hit the Yingjishi Royal City directly with almost no obstruction.

In the huge royal city, near the valley, buildings on dozens of streets collapsed all at once. More than a million citizens had no idea what was happening. Their bodies exploded and turned into billowing blood mist, mixing in the torrent of Primordial Qi and spreading towards the east.

Not only the world passage outside the city of Yingjishi, but also the other twenty or so world passages controlled by the Committee and the Pantheon, and the small world rift outside the city of Baidanfeng through which the three women of Liu Jing smuggled in. All the passages running through the two worlds expanded together at the moment when the altar built by Xu Fu took shape.

The surging and mighty primordial Qi turned into a terrifying torrent and washed past. Near more than twenty world passages, the forward bases arranged by the Committee and the Pantheon were instantly destroyed. An astonishing amount of primordial Qi poured into this world, and then turned into a colorful river visible to the naked eye, winding and whistling across the sky, heading straight towards the direction of Dongyunzhong Island.

Westland.

Whether it was Xing Tianli, Xing Tianjiao, Xing Tianhou, Gongsun Zheng, Nanchaoyou, King Zhou of Shang, Wu Chan, Wu Tan, Wu Shi, or even the high-ranking officials of the committee and the Pantheon... and Renov, who was rising into the sky with great momentum, and those alien races in the metal palace who were spying on this world from high in the sky...

They all sensed the changes in heaven and earth at the same time.

This world is like a dying patient who is lying on the hospital bed and counting the days until the end of the world... Suddenly, an extremely violent shot of cardiac stimulant was injected into this world.

And the medicinal power of this injection is flowing towards the east.

In the East, there is an extremely terrifying force that is frantically extracting the primordial Qi.

More than 20 turbulent torrents of primordial Qi condensed into a stream, fiercely passing through the sky with the sound of gas explosions. And when these torrents of primordial Qi rushed, more than 70% of the primordial Qi was constantly spreading to the entire world.

Heaven and earth, revive.

Especially in places close to those world passages, powerful monks such as Xing Tianli all felt that the concentration of Primordial Qi in the air around them was increasing little by little.

In the Saint Rose's army, Maria happily shouted: "Praise the Supreme Lord, the concentration of high-level energy is increasing... We will soon be able to conquer this world... Adjust the manufacturing plan to allow more true tribesmen to be born!"

In the underground palace, the first ray of primordial Qi had been drawn over, and amid the roars of countless monsters, it was swallowed up by the strange Lingjiu Lamp.

Then, the entire altar suddenly lit up, and wisps of strange magical power fluctuations grew, crossing the infinite void in the blink of an eye and extending towards an unpredictable place.
