Celestial Immortal

Chapter 976

As the saying goes, the cunning rabbit has three holes.

In fact, the tribes and creatures in the barren land are even worse, with four caves, five caves, and even more.

In the mountain stream, a white mist gathered and never dispersed. It was hazy and unclear, until we reached a mountain rock. In the white mist, the seemingly smooth and hard mountain wall suddenly opened a hole, revealing a passage.

Immediately, billowing white mist surged toward the cave.

"Hurry up!"

"Go in quickly~"

"My lord, hold your son well, and be quick with your hands and feet!"

With a sound of urging, clouds of white mist poured into the entrance of the cave in the mountainside, and vaguely, one after another people could be seen flashing past and pouring into the cave.

After about half a stick of incense.

With a sound of "Boom", the entrance of the cave on the mountain wall disappeared, and the white mist that gathered but never dispersed drifted away with the mountain wind.

In the cave, a burly man dressed in animal skins, with knotted muscles and scars all over his body opened his big hands like cattail fans.

In his hand, there is a pure white silkworm like white jade, breathing out wisps of mist, looking sluggish.

"Thanks for your hard work."

The burly man took out a stack of tender green mulberry leaves from the animal skin bag at his waist. The sluggish white mist silkworm was delighted to see the mulberry leaves, and its chubby body wriggled quickly, and plunged into the delicious tender leaves, feasting on them .

"Father~ Is White Mist Silkworm alright?"

Among the crowd, a ten-year-old boy with a strong figure and wearing black animal skin, who looked like a small adult, came out of the crowd, looked at the white mist silkworm Gu with a weak breath in the burly man's hand, his face Full of distressed color.

They were able to migrate hundreds of miles safely in the dangerous wild jungle, thanks to the protection of this little white mist silkworm.

"No need to worry, it is a fifth-grade spiritual Gu, but it consumes too much real energy, so it doesn't matter."

The burly man waved his hand and said to the young man:
"Xiaoyun, you were frightened today, go back to your room to rest first."

Hearing the words, the young man hesitated, looked at the complex expressions of the people around him, feeling guilty in his heart, wanted to say something, but didn't know how to say it.

In the end, he nodded slightly, said nothing more, and walked towards the dark corridor deep in the cave.

Scattered together with the young man, there are also a group of clansmen, old and young.

Originally, the crowded lobby of the karst cave suddenly became deserted, leaving only a burly man, a dozen or so warriors in animal skins, and wizards in black robes. It is also the sixth grade level.

Seeing everyone leaving, the burly man and his group did not stay long, they found a small cave at the entrance of the cave, and everyone sat down to discuss matters.

After sitting down, the burly man sighed leisurely:
"What is this called!"

Seeing the burly man sighing, a man in a black robe said:

"Patriarch, this is not the time to sigh. It's not guaranteed that the Great Elder will find him and start a conflict again. We in Zhangqiu are in danger of falling apart or even exterminating the clan. We should deal with it early."

"What the second elder said is true!"

The patriarch of Zhangqiu sighed, but the current crisis has not been overcome, he is not discouraged, but he cheers up:
"I found this cave by accident while hunting alone. No one in the other clans knows about it. They won't be able to find us in a while, so don't worry too much!"

Everyone in the room nodded after hearing the words, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief, their tense spirits relaxed a lot.

However, someone still looked quite serious, worried in his heart, and frowned:
"Patriarch, why did the great elder suddenly sacrifice Xiaoyun to the witch god? Could it be that he is crazy!"

Zhangqiu patriarch shook his head upon hearing this:

"I don't know the specific situation. Today, the great elder suddenly came to me and said that I encountered a great opportunity that could help our Zhangqiu tribe become a top tribe. I didn't think much about it at first, and I was quite worried. In order to be happy and look forward to it, who would have thought that he would actually set his sights on Xiaoyun."

Everyone's expressions changed slightly.

If you want to become a "top tribe", the most basic requirement is to have someone with great supernatural powers in charge.

Previously, the Zhangqiu tribe had ambitions to become a top tribe.

The miraculousness of Xiaoyun, the head of the young patriarch, is well known to the whole family.

When he was born, he was accompanied by a spiritual snake. In the witch clan, this kind of "accompanied by poisonous insects" is an auspicious sign. As long as those who have such an unexpected encounter do not die young, they will definitely be strong in the future and have the potential to achieve great supernatural powers. .

Therefore, the whole clan attaches great importance to Xiao Yun and regards him as the hope of the whole clan.

"The Great Elder is simply crazy. He took Xiao Yun as a sacrifice, thanks to him who figured it out! Damn it!"

"Who says no, he's probably going crazy, Xiaoyun is the hope of our whole family, how could he do such a thing?"

For a moment, everyone in the house was filled with righteous indignation and condemned the actions of the great elder Zhangqiu.

"Cough cough cough~"

The Second Elder Zhangqiu saw everyone swearing and cursing, with a dignified expression:
"Patriarch, brothers, it is useless to scold right now. There is nothing to be afraid of the Great Elder, not to mention whether he can find him, even if he is found, we will have the strength to fight. The biggest crisis now is not the internal strife in the clan, but The Great Elder exposed Xiaoyun's talent, but the witch god also took a fancy to Xiaoyun."

As soon as these words came out, all the people in the room who were cursing and cursing fell silent.

Facing the Great Elder, they were not afraid at all, but when it came to the Witch God, everyone was like a deflated rubber ball, every one of them fainted, with a look of fear on their faces.

Once they were targeted by the witch god, they wanted to keep "Xiaoyun", it was just a dream.

Although the Zhangqiu tribe is backed by the Shenhu Palace, it is considered that they have no footholds, but in the current situation, how dare they report to the Shenhu Palace.

People's hearts are unpredictable, and the heart of a fox is even more unpredictable.

Reporting to Shenhu Palace, Xinyue's mother may not have a heart of coveting, but as for other people in Shenhu Palace, that is not necessarily the case.

In other words, they are now in a dilemma and have reached a dead end.

"It's troublesome now."

Zhangqiu Clan Chief felt restless and had no idea at all. Immediately, he looked at the second elder beside him:
"Second Elder, what should we do now?"

The second elder looked calm, and asked questions instead of answering:

"Clan leader, do you know why the great elder went crazy and wanted to sacrifice Xiaoyun?"

Patriarch Zhangqiu frowned: "Why, Second Elder, do you know the reason?"

"good."

The second elder nodded: "My witchcraft skills in communicating with the Witch God are not as good as those of the Great Elder, but I also know that the Witch God has recently issued a reward to the Shifang Jungle for young people with excellent bones and qualifications. As long as they are favored by the Witch God, they will be rewarded with a [Witch God] Yin Dan]."

what!
Witch God Yin Pill!

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the room was shocked. They were all overwhelmed by [Witch God Yin Pill]. This is the supreme magic pill refined by Li Tian Wu God. People condense their souls and become quasi-great monks with supernatural powers.

The primordial spirit condensed by [Witch God Yin Pill] is basically not much different from that of Zhenger Bajing great supernatural power monks. They have great supernatural powers, but at most their power is much weaker. In addition, there is no potential for improvement in the future. This is the end of a lifetime, and in terms of Shouyuan, it can't be compared with a serious monk with great supernatural powers.

For people with outstanding talent and high aptitude, [Witching God Yin Pill] is rather tasteless, tasteless to eat, and a pity to discard.

However, for most people in the practice world, the realm of great supernatural powers is out of reach. Depending on one's own good fortune, it is impossible to step into such a high and profound realm in one's life, and to get a [Witch God Yin Pill], gather the primordial spirit, and step into the great supernatural power It is not an exaggeration to say that it is "changing fate against the sky".

If a [Witch God Yin Pill] falls into the world of practice, it can easily cause a bloodbath.

What a great skill of the witch god!
Everyone swallowed involuntarily, and their breathing became a little rough.

At this moment, they finally understood why the Great Elder went "crazy"
The prosperity of the world is all for profit, and in front of absolute interests, few people can resist the temptation and remain unmoved.

For a moment, the room fell into an eerie silence.

After a long time, the second elder saw that no one spoke, so he spoke slowly:
"Clan Leader, you must have seen the situation clearly now, it's time to make a decision."

Zhangqiu patriarch was taken aback: "What decision?"

The second elder sighed quietly:
"Forget it, I will be the bad guy. Clan leader, if nothing happened to the great elder, no matter whether there is [Witch God Yin Pill] or not, Xiaoyun is the greatest hope of our whole clan, and now that the matter has come to this, we can't save Xiaoyun. , instead of taking advantage of the Great Elder or taking advantage of outsiders, why don’t you come here, Patriarch, you are also in the late stage of fifth grade.”

Speaking of this, it was already very explicit, and the second elder didn't continue talking.

Zhangqiu patriarch heard the words and was furious: "No! How can I sacrifice Xiaoyun with blood, me..."

The Second Elder, Xu Shi, had expected this scene a long time ago, but since he opened his mouth and there was no turning back when he opened his bow, he said leisurely:

"Patriarch, for the sake of the multiplication of the clan, which family has not sacrificed, and ask the patriarch to put the overall situation first, and the child can be born again. If we persist, our whole clan may suffer catastrophe, and there will never be peace."

"This"

Hearing this, Zhangqiu patriarch froze in place as if struck by lightning, as if he had been petrified.

These words are killing people.

Living in a dangerous, barbaric and desolate world, it is common to sacrifice for the reproduction of the ethnic group. In the past, when the ethnic group was weak, in order to obtain the protection of ghosts and gods, it was also a common occurrence.

That is to say, in recent decades, when the tribe has become stronger, this kind of situation has become less.

However, it is still commonplace to sacrifice a few people for the benefit of the whole ethnic group in order to make a living in Manghuang.

In the past, ordinary clansmen sacrificed and gave up their sons and daughters. Now it's his turn as the patriarch, but he is reluctant to part with his children. What is this?
The originally angry patriarch Zhangqiu fell silent and fell into a painful struggle.

The rest of the tribe also fell silent at this time, and did not speak again.

Tiger poison does not eat children.

Not to mention the blood sacrifice of one's own child, to fulfill oneself.

For anyone, this is a great torment of the heart.

"Drip, drip, drip~"

In the cave, only the sound of dripping water can be heard rhythmically, and the atmosphere is extremely strange.

I don’t know how long it took, but the burly Zhangqiu patriarch closed his eyes and said in a bitter voice:
"That's all! Then I will follow the second elder!"

"The patriarch is wise!"

In the cave, when everyone heard the words, their expressions were relaxed yet dignified, which was extremely complicated.

However, what they didn't know was that in the corner of the cave, a half-sized man crawled on the mountain wall, silently, blending with the rock, and heard their conversation clearly.

Originally, he was just performing witchcraft and blending with the rock, but at this moment, he was really dumbfounded.

"Daddy wants to sacrifice me with blood"

The boy's body trembled uncontrollably, his whole body was icy cold, as if he was in a world of ice and snow, the soft heart in his heart seemed to be crushed back and forth by a giant beast, blood spattered and dripped
After about half a stick of incense.

The boy Xiaoyun returned to his room, devastated, as if he had lost all energy.

Betrayal and hurt from a close relative, let alone a child, even a mature adult may not be able to bear it at this moment.

"Tick tock~"

Xiao Yun had no expression on his face, but tears were trickling down his face, and his heart was icy cold.

"ssssssssssssssssssssssss out~"

At this time, a spiritual snake with a body as green as jade emerged from his sleeves, crawled onto Xiaoyun, and spit out snake letters in front of him to comfort him.

The Spirit Snake started with a cold hand.

However, the young Xiaoyun felt unprecedented warmth from the coldness, hugged the green snake with both hands, and stroked it gently:
"Xiaoyu~"

At this moment, the only thing in this world that can bring him warmth and strength is the spirit snake in his hand.

Xiaoyun stroked the little green snake in his hand and murmured:
"Xiaoyu, Dad is going to dedicate me to the witch god, and my mother is long gone, and I have no relatives."

"ssssssssssssssssssssssss out~"

The green snake has a very high spirituality, Xu knew the sadness in the master's heart, spit out a snake shape, and comforted him non-stop.

Everyone in the world has betrayed him, only the little green snake in front of him will not betray or leave him.

It is also the existence of the green snake that makes the young Xiaoyun feel a little warm, the cold and fragile heart has support and warmth, and the trembling body gradually returns to normal:
"Xiaoyu, fortunately I have you, only you will not leave me."

After finishing speaking, the young Xiaoyun cheered up, and planned to put the green snake into his arms, take the little snake and fly away, leaving this sad place.

However, as soon as he stood up, he was slightly startled.

There was no other reason, in front of him, a small white snake appeared, looking at him with a complicated expression.

Xiaoyun was taken aback, looked at the white snake, then at the green snake in his arms, he may have thought of something, his expression changed drastically:

"Xiaoyu, you want to leave me too? Follow it!"

Seeing Xiaoyun's nervous expression, White Snake couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Immediately, a burst of white smoke drifted past, and the little white snake transformed into a human form.

The person who came was none other than Chu Chen.

After obtaining the personal belongings of "Xiaoyun" from the Miasma Hill tribe, and having a definite breath, the sapphire in his hand easily locked the position and found it.

Xiaoyun was horrified in his heart, but his expression was calm, and he asked coldly:
"Who are you?"

Chu Chen didn't answer and asked instead:

"Little friend, do you hate your father?"

The young Xiaoyun gritted his teeth and remained silent.

Seeing the young man like this, Chu Chen sighed in his heart.

Before that, he was still speculating about the "big catastrophe" that Judge Cui said, but now that he saw what happened to Mr. Qingyun's reincarnation, he already understood it in his heart.

The real catastrophe is not the external danger, but the inner trauma.

If "Xiao Yun" cannot be guided well and healed from his heartache, he may remain ignorant and leave huge hidden dangers.

After thinking up to this point, Chu Chen sighed quietly:
"You are a wise person, and everything comes back to the source. Tell me, where is the source of the evil you have experienced? Is it the elder of your clan, the second elder, your father, or a member of your clan? It's still the Litian witch god"

The young Xiaoyun clenched his fists, perhaps too hard, his nails were pinched into the flesh, and the blood oozes out:

"No!!! It's not my father, it's the witch god, it's him who makes everyone human, ghost or ghost!"

When Chu Chen heard this, his face showed approval.

"Well said! Little friend, do you want to vent the anger in your heart?"

The young Xiaoyun was taken aback:
"How to vent?"

Chu Chen smiled slightly and looked into the distance:

"I have a sword that can shake the sky, split the ground, hang mountains, overturn the sea, cut down mountains and destroy temples, and slay demons!"
