Even if their ultimate fate is failure, falling into the clutches of an Evil God, they must still stand and fight.

Furthermore, many of the Heaven Void cultivators present have endured for far too many years; their accumulated wisdom and perceptions have become rigid, their thoughts set in their ways, and they harbor skepticism, even outright scorn, towards the supposed catastrophe of an "Evil God."

They might concede that the present danger originates from the "Evil God" of the Great Wilderness.

However, they are unlikely to truly believe that this so-called Evil God possesses the power to destabilize their families, lead to the annihilation of their state boundaries, or precipitate the fall of the Qian State.

Nonetheless, in the current circumstances, caution dictates prudence. Their apprehension of this "what if" risk is precisely what persuades them to accept True Man Situ’s counsel and enact preventative measures.

Once all discussions concluded and arrangements were finalized.

The critical task of "slaying the god" now had a concrete plan.

The comprehensive assault against the Desolate Heaven Blood Sacrifice Formation was also swiftly put into motion.

Above the Qian Learning State Boundary, the very atmosphere was heavy with the stench of blood, and the pervasive Evil Thoughts rendered the air almost unbreathable.

A pivotal confrontation, entwining reality with nightmarish dread, one that would determine the destiny of every cultivator within the Qian Learning State Boundary and grip the hearts of all, was inexorably approaching with the relentless march of time...

...

Within the confines of the Desolate Heaven Blood Sacrifice Formation.

Mo Hua, held in a state of "slumber" by the blood sacrifice, remained deeply unconscious.

Mr. Tu, likewise, was preparing for the culmination of his final ritual.

Deep within the Blood and Flesh Maze, situated upon the heart that formed the core of the Formation’s eye, at the very epicenter of the colossal beast’s skeletal remains, lay a hidden chamber secured by White Bone.

Inside this secret hall, Mr. Tu diligently marshaled hundreds of Golden Core Demons, overseeing the arrangement of the "offerings" essential for activating the blood sacrifice.

The grand hall housed a colossal altar.

Resting upon this altar was a formidable idol of an Evil God, fashioned from White Bone, possessing a human visage and the horns of a sheep.

Encircling the altar, the intricate patterns of the Blood Sacrifice Array were meticulously inscribed.

Positioned at the nodal points of the formation stood hundreds of effigies representing Demon Monsters from the Great Wilderness, each bearing a terrifying and bizarre aspect.

Every one of these Great Wilderness Demon Monster effigies was depicted in a posture of bowing towards the supreme Evil God idol at the center. However, their necks were unnaturally contorted backward, their faces turned skyward, giving the impression of a "plat ter for tribute."

Hundreds more Golden Core Demons were also prostrate before the Evil God idol, each tightly grasping a living human captive.

Mr. Tu uttered aloud, his voice filled with fervent devotion and a touch of madness:

"Commence the sacrifice!"

In immediate response, the hundreds of Golden Core Demons sprang into action, brutally dispatching the "living offerings" held within their grasp.

They employed a grim variety of methods for the killing: some gouged out eyes, others sliced off noses, a few severed ears, some decapitated their victims, while others dismembered limbs, split open abdomens, and extracted the entrails...

The scene was one of extreme bloodshed and heart-wrenching cruelty.

Following the executions, they adhered to Mr. Tu’s prescribed "Divine Thought Technique," chanting arcane incantations. Their own "killing intent" was fused with the raw "fear" emanating from the victims moments before their tragic demise, thereby creating a potent "catalyst" that was injected into the surrounding Demon Monster effigies.

This was a dual ritual: Mr. Tu’s own ceremony for "summoning the god," and simultaneously, the Golden Core Demons’ rite of "swearing allegiance."

The hundreds of Demon Monster effigies, sensing the profound devotion of the believers, the ruthless killing intent, and the palpable fear and despair of the sacrificial offerings in their final moments, began to manifest a fierce luminescence within their eyes, opening their blood-filled mouths.

Each severed body part from the living offerings—eyes, noses, ears, heads, limbs, viscera—was then fed into the waiting maws of the Demon Monster effigies.

These Demon Monster effigies, their jaws snapping shut, began to masticate their gruesome meal.

They assimilated the essence of faith, the terror of fear, and the physical essence of the flesh, transforming it all into the potent power of "blood sacrifice." This refined energy served as sustenance for the eventual rebirth of the Great Wilderness God Master.

Simultaneously, the Blood Sacrifice Array etched upon the ground commenced to emit a faint crimson glow, which gradually intensified, becoming progressively more brilliant and dazzling.

Throughout this entire process, Mr. Tu remained in a state of devout kneeling before the idol.

This elaborate ritual persisted for an extended duration.

It was only at precisely 10 p.m. that the resounding echo of a terrifying heartbeat reverberated through the chamber.

An unimaginably dreadful Divine Thought began to slowly coalesce above the altar. It felt as though something had broken free from the firm grasp of the Great Dao, awakened from the vast river of time, poised to descend upon the mortal world with immense, terrifying power.

Mr. Tu's demeanor shifted abruptly to one of ecstatic excitement, his eyes gleaming with fanaticism.

This momentous day had finally arrived!

His voice trembling with an uncontrollable fervor, he slowly intoned the ancient words:

"Heaven and earth are impartial, treating all things as mere straw dogs."

"Deities are impartial, treating all beings as mere straw dogs."

"Today, your faithful followers have erected the Desolate Heaven Blood Sacrifice Formation, and we respectfully invite the Divine Lord to descend!"

"Henceforth, this Qianxue State Boundary, containing its limitless populace and myriad lifeforms, shall all serve as 'offerings' for the Divine Lord, for His supreme pleasure..."
