Blood Sacrifice

After finishing their training, Oscar and Dugu Yan, as usual, concealed their presence and quietly arrived inside the Slaughterhouse.

The two entered the secret chamber with ease, each sitting down on a futon, and then released their External Soul Bone to begin absorbing and transforming Soul Power.

In just six months, their Soul Power had increased from level 62 to level 67. This huge improvement made them very happy. Before long, they would be able to break through level 70 and obtain their Seventh Spirit Ring after leaving the Slaughter City.

However, today was a bit unusual. None of the seven members of the Mad Saber King had appeared. Usually, even if all seven of them didn't appear together, at least half of them would be here cultivating. But today, not a single person was seen.

However, Oscar and Dugu Yan didn't care about these things, because outsiders couldn't affect their progress.

In the secret chamber, the seven members of the Mad Saber King knelt respectfully before the Rakshasa God. Suddenly, the Green Snake looked up at the stone wall above her head, as if her gaze could penetrate the thick stone slabs and see the outside world.

"They're here."

The other six people all grinned wildly when they heard the Green Snake speak, revealing a mocking smile.

"We've raised them for so long, it's time for them to give back," the Mad Saber King said with a ferocious expression.

The others all had bloodshot eyes. The Evil Dragon King said, "After waiting for half a year, today we will use their blood to activate the Rakshasa God Inheritance, making them our first step out of this place."

The Spider King licked his blood-red, sensual lips. "Following the Rakshasa's decree, I will begin the trial with Blood Sacrifice, inherit the Rakshasa's will, and rule the entire Slaughter City!"

The seven people were like incredibly devout believers, each muttering incantations. Unfortunately, Oscar and Dugu Yan were completely unaware of what was happening underground, as a special force was blocking everything out.

Mad Saber King and his companions were originally brutal, evil, and utterly depraved individuals who entered the Slaughter City in search of survival. They were supposed to perpetually perish according to the rules here, until they vanished into nothingness and merged into the entire Slaughter City.

But at some point, they were drawn by a special force and gathered here. Initially, they only discovered the secret room. The group, who were about to be assimilated by the brutal and tyrannical aura of the Slaughter City, gradually stabilized after cultivating in the secret room.

It wasn't until they completely assimilated the Soul Power in the secret chamber that a different kind of soul seemed to appear in their subconscious.

Perhaps they themselves did not realize that they had been influenced by that strange thing without even noticing, until they became followers of the Rakshasa God.

After becoming believers, they opened the underground space based on a special memory in their minds and saw the Rakshasa God enshrined there.

Under such a special influence in their minds, they began to collect blood and inject it into the statue. Once a certain standard was reached, the Rakshasa God would begin the inheritance process, also known as the divine test.

Until Oscar and Dugu Yan appeared, a special feeling in their minds told them, giving them intuition, that as long as they put all the blood, bones and flesh of Oscar and Dugu Yan into the blood pool, the Rakshasa God would issue a Divine Decree, granting them transcendent power.

However, they still thought like normal people and understood that experienced individuals like Oscar and Dugu Yan must have hidden cards up their sleeves. Therefore, they spent half a year planning and investigating the two of them thoroughly.

Today, they are finally fully prepared to offer the two of them as sacrifices to the revered Rakshasa God and begin the divine trial.

Just as Oscar and Dugu Yan were focused on their cultivation, they suddenly felt the surrounding Soul Power becoming thinner, the first time this had happened in the past six months.

In an instant, Oscar and Dugu Yan opened their eyes at the same time. They looked at each other and saw a hint of confusion in each other's eyes. Clearly, this situation was something they had not expected.

The next moment, a terrifying pressure suddenly descended upon the entire secret chamber, and then a huge underground portal suddenly opened in the floor next to the wall, attracting the two of them with an incomparably terrifying force.

Oscar and Dugu Yan exchanged a glance. Instead of fleeing, their eyes gleamed with a crimson light, just like the seven members of the Mad Saber King. They then rushed toward the portal, as if something there was drawing them in.

The two rushed into the doorway without any distinction between them, their former harmony and friendship gone, as if the other would take away everything inside if either of them were a step slower.

The two quickly entered the Fourth Middle School via the stone steps. What came into view was a space about the size of a secret room. At the end of the space was a huge blood pool. In the center of the blood pool was a magnificent statue of a woman. At this moment, the statue's eyes were also flashing crimson.

Seven people were kneeling devoutly in front of the statue. When Oscar and Dugu Yan entered, the seven people stood up at the same time and looked at Dugu Yan and Oscar.

Their pupils also flickered with an eerie crimson, but not as intensely as Oscar's and Dugu Yan's.

This contrast is like how the seven members of the Mad Saber King were influenced but not addicted, while Oscar and Dugu Yan were deeply immersed in it and unable to extricate themselves.

Oscar and Dugu Yan, their eyes still bloodshot, rushed straight toward the statue, seemingly ignoring the seven people.

Watching Oscar and Dugu Yan's movements, the short distance of one hundred meters seemed to stretch on forever.

Looking at the two men and women charging forward, Mad Saber King couldn't help but smile, "Look, they also crave the power of Rakshasa. It's just a pity that they are too greedy. In just half a year, they have absorbed this power endlessly. They are already the most devout believers of Rakshasa. They wouldn't hesitate to die even if it meant their own death."

Green Snake covered her mouth and chuckled, "Isn't it because you lied to them? What about increasing their Soul Power by so many levels in just a few years? It was all just to make them lose control of their greed and frantically absorb the Soul Power here."

The Evil Dragon King looked at Dugu Yan's graceful figure and couldn't help but swallow. "There's still an hour before the Blood Sacrifice starts, so why don't I taste this little beauty first?"

Mad Saber King snorted coldly, "Evil Dragon, get out of the way."

The others also disagreed with the Evil Dragon's approach, since the Blood Sacrifice process had to be carried out without any accidents, and Oscar and Dugu Yan were merely the "keys" for them to initiate the Blood Sacrifice.

After that, they must ensure that no one else appears here until the Blood Sacrifice is completed and the trial begins.

Oscar and Dugu Yan were very fast, covering the 100-meter distance in almost an instant.

Fifty meters, thirty meters, ten meters, five meters...

The seven members of the Mad Saber King simply made way for Oscar and Dugu Yan to pass, and calmly watched them rush towards the Rakshasa God Statue, as if they themselves would end their lives in front of the Rakshasa God.
