The Legend of the Demon Hunter

Chapter 162 [The Ritual]

Sensing the situation behind her, Di Rui stopped suddenly. She looked back with a look of surprise on her face. Changyu Jinnian behind her had the same expression as hers.

Di Rui glanced at Changyu Jinnian and said, "Your choice is right."

Then she said no more and walked away.

Xiao Zhu felt that his body was completely exhausted. If it weren't for the Staff of Time left by Ning Zhiwan that saved his life at the last moment, he would probably not have been able to get out of this windy road.

The power of the two-headed lion is comparable to that of a top hunting soul. Its wind speed and thunder attack power combined in one body make it have almost no weaknesses. This also makes Xiao Zhu wonder what kind of person can pass through this canyon?

Changyu Jinnian once mentioned that only those who passed the Feng Mi Dao could obtain the title of "Apocalypse". Is the design of Feng Mi Dao just a threshold? Then in order to pass this threshold, a large number of elite believers may perish here. Isn't it a choice that is not worth the loss?

At this moment, Xiao Zhu suddenly felt two forces appearing on his left and right.

He had relaxed his vigilance after walking out of Fengmi Road and was frightened by these two forces. He wanted to defend himself, but he was powerless and was hit hard by these two forces.

"Huh? So warm, so comfortable..." Xiao Zhu, who was hit by these two forces, felt indescribably comfortable. The dark red wings behind him opened uncontrollably, and his clothes melted away, leaving him naked like a newborn baby bathing in the hot spring of spiritual power.

"The more difficult the Feng Mi Dao is, the higher the reward is. Now it's time for you to reap the fruits of victory." Changyu Jinnian said indifferently in the distance, and his words floated into Xiao Zhu's ears: "The Feng Mi Dao is where the followers of the Shenxue Sect obtain the title of [Apocalypse]. Regardless of success or failure, you can only pass it once in your life. Because the risks and rewards are extremely high, the followers jokingly call it "crossing the tribulation." Once you pass the Feng Mi Dao, you will be blessed by the power of wind and thunder, which will be of great benefit to your cultivation."

At this time, Xiao Zhu was immersed in the blessing of the power of wind and thunder. He felt that the spiritual power that was exhausted in his body was being replenished quickly, and his physical injuries were also healing. When he recovered to his peak state, the blessing of the power of wind and thunder did not stop, but broke through his upper limit and pushed his cultivation up a lot.

Ever since Xiao Zhu completed his fourth blood awakening and reached the Soul Hunting realm, the speed of his cultivation has slowed down significantly. He has been lingering in the early stages of Soul Hunting over the years. However, this time, the power of wind and thunder directly raised his cultivation to the late stage of Soul Hunting.

In the past, with the soul fusion technique taught to him by the hermit, he was able to fight against ordinary hunting souls, but when he encountered a powerful hunting soul, he had no choice but to run away.

But now, he is confident that he can match any demon hunter who has not reached the level of Hunter King!

After the power of wind and thunder had baptized his body, Xiao Zhu felt this power condensed on the dark red wings behind him. Then the wings gradually changed. The dark red color was gradually fading and turning into a blue and white color. What surprised Xiao Zhu even more was that there was a faint power of wind and thunder emerging on the surface of the wings. After today's baptism, the wings unexpectedly possessed the power of wind and thunder!

The blessing of the power of wind and thunder took more than an hour. Finally, the power of wind and thunder disappeared. Xiao Zhu stood there as if he had been reborn from Nirvana. He looked at Changyu Jinnian in the distance, wanting to try out the effect of the wings that had newly acquired the power of wind and thunder. So he injected spiritual power into the wings of wind and thunder behind him. Suddenly, he felt his figure flash, and he appeared in front of Changyu Jinnian.

This speed is even comparable to that of Wan Yixing, who possesses spatial bloodline, when moving short distances.

When Xiao Zhu was still a high-level demon hunter, wings were one of his trump cards, which often brought him unexpected results when fighting against the enemy.

Ever since Xiao Zhu broke through to the Soul Hunting Realm and gained the ability to fly, the wings were no longer as helpful to him. They could only increase his movement speed but did not have a disruptive effect on the battle situation.

But with the blessing of the power of wind and thunder, the wings will mean a lot to him. Whether attacking or dodging, he has a speed far beyond that of ordinary demon hunters. Now, even facing the Hunter King, he has a chance to escape.

Changyu Jinnian was also surprised to see the speed Xiao Zhu displayed at that moment.

But he didn't look directly at Xiao Zhu. Instead, he turned around and said, "Put on your clothes first!"

Xiao Zhu then realized that he was naked at the moment. He wanted to burrow into the ground in embarrassment. He hurriedly took out a set of clothes from his storage bracelet and put them on. Then he sincerely said to Changyu Jinnian: "Thank you, Senior Pope!"

Changyu Jinnian turned around and smiled, "No need to thank me, you have fought for all this. To be honest, I am quite surprised that you, a spirit hunter, can pass the three-star Fengmi Road."

Then Changyu Jinnian pointed to a hill in front of them and said, "Let's go! The ceremony will start soon, and Xia Shi is waiting for you there."

Hearing the name Xia Shi, the fire in Xiao Zhu's heart was instantly ignited, but when he realized that the Shenxue Sect not only cured his injuries, but also gave him the opportunity to pass the Fengmi Road, he realized that the Shenxue Sect had no ill will towards him and Xia Shi. So he was not as nervous as before, but respectfully said to Changyu Jinnian: "Please lead the way, Senior Pope. In addition, what exactly is the ceremony you mentioned? Can you tell me now?"

Changyu Jinnian looked at the hills in the distance and said, "Don't worry, you will understand everything when you get there."

Under the leadership of Changyu Jinnian, the two quickly arrived at the top of the hill, where they saw a huge altar with flowing runes and intricate and mysterious formations carved on it. Xiao Zhu had never seen such formation patterns before.

Above the altar, there was a huge spider web-like thing. In the center of the spider web, Xiao Zhu saw the figure he had been thinking about, Xia Shi.

At this moment, Xia Shi closed her eyes, as if she was asleep. Her long black hair cascaded down like a waterfall, and her body seemed to be bound in a spider web, motionless.

Seeing Xia Shi's current appearance and thinking of the "ritual" that Changyu Jinnian mentioned, Xiao Zhu felt that Xia Shi seemed to be the sacrifice of the ritual they were talking about, which made his heart, which had just calmed down, suddenly become violent.

Changyu Jinnian, who was standing next to Xiao Zhu, felt the fluctuation of spiritual power and the strong murderous aura emanating from Xiao Zhu. He gently patted Xiao Zhu on the shoulder and said something calmly. This sentence instantly melted away all the violence in Xiao Zhu's heart. He said:

"Don't worry, we're stripping her of her earth spirit."
