The Quest for Immortality Chapter 2260: Primordial Heaven Blood Sacrifice
Previously on The Quest for Immortality...
The Desolate Heaven Blood Sacrifice Formation activates!
Suddenly, blood erupts from the earth veins, shaking the ground violently.
Around the Qianxue State Boundary, bizarre phenomena erupt without warning; fissures tear open the earth, crimson glows emerge, and evil qi surges skyward.
Beneath the blood-red canopy.
Concealed altars one after another welcome the descent of evil gods' wills.
Offered statues weep blood from their eyes, sinister smirks twist their lips, resounding with the horrifying growls of evil gods.
From lurking shadows, endless hordes of cult followers, fueled by malevolent power, deformed and unearthly, in wild frenzy and madness, unleash random massacres across myriad places...
In remote mountains, unremarkable cliffs suddenly unveil demon lairs, black gales howl forth, throngs of evil cultivators and demon cultivators burst out, ravaging the ranges with twisted laughs, butchering every cultivator they find...
In minor Immortal Cities, demon cultivators muster crowds, storming gates and slaughtering indiscriminately, rivers of blood flowing freely.
In hamlets of loose cultivators, evil cultivators arise, gorging on flesh and marrow.
Even on sunlit streets, ordinary-seeming cultivators abruptly rip away human skins, abandon disguises, sprout fangs, and savage pedestrians with bites...
Furthermore, Taoist Prisons across state boundaries erupt in uproar.
Confined evil demons and Sin Cultivators within Taoist Prisons gain blood-red gazes, strengthened by dark forces, shatter restraints, and wage fierce battles against Taoist Court cultivators...
Across Qianxue, blood-soaked killings rage endlessly, brutal turmoil endures.
Blood floods the earth.
Flesh piles into macabre barricades.
Upon altars everywhere, severed heads of the terrified and miserably slain are stacked one by one as tributes to evil gods...
Bloodshed and carnage slowly taint the skies crimson.
Cultivators of Qianxue State Boundary all stare heavenward, faces pale with dread.
They beheld firsthand five Heaven Void Dharma Phases rising, wrapped in radiant golden light.
They beheld too the Fifth Grade Mount of Tao Formation's activation, the starry vault inverting in grand spectacle.
Yet in an instant, now they face Demon Path's wild onslaught, blood-red ill omens.
In scant moments, dire shifts cascade without end, freaks abound, terror grips every heart like a vivid nightmare.
Qianxue Court Tribunal surges into maximum operation at once.
Top to bottom, the full Taoist Court Tribunal—supervisors, enforcement captains, allied outer cultivators—all heed directives, flooding like tides to crush demon plagues in every zone.
Court chiefs of state boundaries command personally at vanguard lines, earnest and cautious, permitting no lapse even briefly.
Blood portents between sky and land, demon calamity bursting forth—this signals a once-in-a-millennium catastrophe.
Mismanage it, and these leaders confront at least demotion, scrutiny, incarceration; worst case, dire sanctions, execution by blade.
In a flash, butchery engulfs countless locales.
Fiends massacre cultivators, Taoist Court Tribunal counters the fiends.
Deeper still, vaster demon-beast might swells undetected...
...
This entire scene, viewed from Sword Observation Tower, witnessed by Heaven Void Ancestors of sects and lineages.
An ancient, gore-drenched, dreadful title emerges in their thoughts:
Demon Path Great Formation!
Fools are unleashing the Demon Path Great Formation in Qian State!
Ancestors first dismiss in disbelief, then erupt in boundless wrath.
This tranquil domain, yet madmen dare in Fifth Grade Qianxue State Boundary—this cultivation haven of towering sects and noble clans, beneath eyes of Fifth Grade Heaven Void Ancestors—brazenly ignite the slaughterous Demon Path Great Formation?!
Sheer lunacy, supreme folly.
After rage subsides, icy fear chills the ancestors profoundly.
All bears marks of intricate conspiracy.
From Shura clash inferred via Dao Discussion Heaven Instrument, to Fifth Grade Large Formation's disturbance, to Xuantian Peak's Void Transmission hurtling toward Yanluo Mountain State Boundary...
Not to mention planting demon path outposts far and wide, rearing foul demon cultivators, perpetrating vile deeds, covertly forging base for Demon Path Great Formation.
Leveraging Tao Discussion Assembly to snatch hundreds of prodigies from Qianxue Great Sects.
Capitalizing on Xuantian Peak anomaly, breaching the flaw to seize Shangguan Family child with anomalous Life Chart...
These intrigues demand far more than a day, far beyond common cultivators' reach.
Besides Demon Path holdouts, a superior—loftier rank, greater strength, array mastery profound enough to corrupt Fifth Grade Large Formation—secretly bolsters the evildoers.
This figure's origins likely terrify beyond measure...
Hence, suspicions plague every ancestor's mind, yet none voices them.
Some truths lack proof, unfit for loose utterance.
As ancestors, could they fail to grasp this?
They seal the suspicion deep inside.
Paramount now: plot swift demolition of Demon Path Great Formation, halt demon blight—this demands utmost haste.
Let Demon Path Great Formation gather force, its foul calamity overrun Qianxue State Boundary into abyss.
Worse, daily it lingers, untold cultivator lives forfeit pointlessly.
Urgency presses; ancestors steel themselves resolutely.
"The Taoist Court Tribunal has already started surrounding and purging the chaotic demon cultivators everywhere."
"Sects have commanded Elders to lead disciples to state boundaries, helping Taoist Court Tribunal suppress the demon disaster."
"Every evil demon must be utterly eradicated, every evil formation, artifact, scripture destroyed."
"Demon Path formations especially—not one spared."
"The Shangguan Family child must be saved too... We don't know why heretical demons took them, but clearly this child matters greatly to Demon Path, even to this great formation..."
