Novel Bin Chapter 267: Promoted Yaksha
"That fellow has already been here for more than ten days, but we\'ve never seen him sit properly on the altar for a day!"
"Even if he does something, the blood-colored altar will only shine with the lowest level of spiritual light. This has never happened in the past few hundred years! The High Priest must teach him a lesson."
"Right, right. A few days ago, I even saw him secretly absorbing the blood in the blood pool. This fellow is simply unforgivable! We should melt him and pour him into the blood pool!"
In front of the demon statues in the underground blood pool, a few small Evil Eyes were complaining to their Evil Eye High Priest.
It was the large evil eye that had captured the yaksha clone and forced him to work.
These little Evil Eyes worked hard every day to squeeze out life and soul, but the new worker was completely at ease.
They were naturally feeling mentally unbalanced. After some thought, they plucked up the courage to complain to the High Priest.
"Is that true?! A mere Fallen Blood Yaksha actually dares to be lazy under me! Hmph, I\'ll let him know the consequences of doing this!"
In the first place, the Great Demon Eye was not very satisfied with a foreigner working under him. Now that he ended up slacking, how could it not anger the High Priest?
The house was the size of a building, and it only had a layer of eyelids and countless tentacles covering its large eyes. It brought with it a group of small evil eyes as it aggressively floated towards the Fallen Blood Yaksha.
The bloodshot eyeball emitted an extremely dangerous light. One had to know that the evil eye\'s gaze could really kill.
"Lord High Priest, look, he\'s actually still pretending to work."
After approaching, these eyeballs saw Jiang Li\'s yaksha clone sitting cross-legged on the altar.
After the soul link, the entire altar was emitting a thin layer of blood-colored light.
However, compared to the other altars, that light was far inferior.
Just as the other Evil Eyes had said, the clone did not work hard.
"Lord High Priest, you saw it too, right? This level of spiritual light is definitely not able to connect to the human world. He\'s just being lazy!"
One of the Evil Eyes did not forget to add fuel to the fire.
The countless tentacles on the eyelids of the Great Evil Eye that was in charge of the blood pool altar twisted crazily. There were actually purple lightning bolts flickering on them.
It could be seen that this High Priest was really furious.
"Yaksha! Get down here and let me drain your brain bit by bit!"
A sharp mental will pierced into the clone\'s mind like a steel needle, forcing him to come down and accept the cruelest death.
If not for the fear of damaging the altar, this Evil Eye High Priest would have long sent a bolt of lightning to slash him into ashes.
However, at this moment, the light on the blood-red altar suddenly increased. A faint light appeared above the altar and stretched into the void, as if it was connected to a distant place.
The Great Evil Eye\'s anger and attack stopped.
"This is… a connection?"
The house-sized eye widened, revealing shock and confusion.
"Stop pretending! Didn\'t you hear what the High Priest said?! Don\'t you think it\'s too late to pretend to be diligent now? Get down!"
The Evil Eye at the side did not have such good perception. It felt that the yaksha clone was still pretending, so it went forward to pull this new worker off the altar.
However, before its tentacle could touch the side of the altar, a black light instantly arrived and blasted it apart on the spot. It turned into a stream of dirty water that splattered on the ground.
It was the evil light emitted by the Evil Eye High Priest. Their race could really kill with their eye.
"No one is allowed to disturb him! If you interrupt the connection of the altar, I\'ll boil your souls in the blood pot for ten thousand years!"
"How long has it been since the Vemacitrin Blood Pool was connected to the altar in the human world? Finally… is it finally about to succeed again?"
Not to mention the fact that such a method of severing the spirit and casting it into the continent of the Nine Provinces through the altar consumed a huge amount of energy every few months, the success rate was also very low.
One had to know how vast the continent of the Nine Provinces was. Apart from land, there was also a large area with an endless sea.
To throw a spiritual fragment like this was equivalent to randomly throwing a stone to the continent of the Nine Provinces. Where it landed depended on luck.
More than 99% of the spiritual fragments would fall into the wilderness and be unable to be discovered by intelligent creatures. Even until the spiritual energy dissipated, no one would find it.
Even if they were lucky and landed in the gathering place of humans, and were discovered before the energy ran out, they still had to use their mental strength to appease the humans in an extremely short period of time and convince them to swallow themselves into their stomachs. They had to consume lives to prolong the existence of the spiritual fragment.
It was common sense not to eat anything that was picked up. One could imagine how difficult it was to take this step.
Even if they were lucky enough to meet a fool and did as they said, they could only last for ten days with the life of a mortal.
In these ten days, they had to keep a low profile and avoid being plastered with a talisman paper by the local Daoist.
In addition, they also had to establish a cult in these ten days to spread the method of the Asura\'s blood sacrifice.
In the end, how were the few mortals who received the news going to purchase spiritual materials that they had never seen in their lives and construct an altar that mortals could not build? This was another huge problem.
Every step here could reduce the chance of success to 1%.
Therefore, although there were many blood pools like the Asura World and there were also a large number of monsters working tirelessly, there were very few successful cases.
However, this Fallen Blood Yaksha had only been here for more than ten days, but it had actually progressed to the stage of binding the altar.
Not only did he bewitch humans, but he also successfully made the opposite side build a blood sacrifice altar.
Be it luck or strength, this made him feel very gratified. It had been too long since he had any results to report. If he did not succeed, he might be swallowed by Lord Vemacitrin.
Compared to the excitement of the Great Evil Eye, Jiang Li actually did not spend much effort to get the statue to contact the blood pool altar.
The Thousand Hands Divine Statue and the Fallen Blood Yaksha were both his clones.
Using Jiang Li\'s spiritual world as a springboard, the two sides reached an agreement. It was as simple as handing a stone from his left hand to his right.
Originally, the most difficult and lowest probability was not a problem at all in the face of the clones that connected the two worlds.
He made a call here and the other party picked up. The second step of linking to the altar was completed.
"Good, good, good. You did very well! Don\'t stop, listen to me."
"Hurry up and perform the blood sacrifice. After completing one blood sacrifice, the channels on both sides can be completely established! After succeeding, I\'ll give you a sinful heart! Stay calm and work hard!"
"Idiot, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and open the blood pool passageway!"
The High Priest\'s Evil Eye\'s attitude towards the yaksha clone was clearly different from his other subordinates. He sent a small Evil Eye flying with a tentacle and ordered it to open a gate beside the blood pool.
Immediately, a stream of blood of madness flowed down the ditch on the ground.
Highly concentrated blood of madness flowed to the bottom of the altar.
A red light immediately emitted from the blood-colored altar and surged towards the unknown along the thin line in the sky.
On the continent of the Nine Provinces, Jiang Li had just finished communicating in the Yin Burial Coffin when he sensed the movement of the Evil Eye on the other side.
"You\'re quite anxious, but that\'s good."
"Haha, how generous!"
Before the two channels could be opened, the blood light surging over had already suffused a red color on the Thousand Hands Divine Statue.
To open the blood sacrifice channel, both sides needed to offer sacrifices, but the number and quality of the offerings did not have to be equal.
Over at the Vemacitrin Blood Pool, they generously paid 90% of the blood sacrifice amount. Jiang Li only needed to pay the last 10%.
As for the sacrifices, Jiang Li did not need to kill anymore.
In his Yin Burial Coffin, the corpses spread out were almost ten meters thick.
He casually took out some fresh corpses and the remaining human blood left from the previous advancement. He easily satisfied the requirements of the blood sacrifice.
The offerings here rotted in front of the Thousand Hands Divine Statue, and the energy inside also turned into a red light that entered the mouth and nose of the statue and collided with the red light surging from the Asura World. They hit each other and directly constructed a virtual bridge.
The Thousand Hands Divine Statue and the Vemacitrin Blood Pool were bound.
Although they could not directly open the spatial rift now, with the consumption of a certain amount of energy from this statue and altar, they could already communicate without any barrier and transmit some pure energy to each other.
As the number of blood sacrifices increased, this passageway would become more and more stable and wide. Slowly, it could transmit physical objects and living things. In the end, it would meet the requirements to open the spatial passageway.
"Good, good, good! You did very well! I want to reward you! Little Yaksha, you\'ll be my assistant in the future!"
When the Evil Eye High Priest saw that the binding between the two sides had been completed, he was overjoyed and immediately ordered for the yaksha clone to be promoted.
It really did not expect that this yaksha\'s luck would be so good. Who exactly was the one who picked up his soul fragment in the human world?
He could actually successfully construct an altar in such a short period of time and directly activate a blood sacrifice of this scale. It was simply unbelievable!
The Evil Eye High Priest\'s tentacles curled and swept the yaksha clone off the altar.
Then, he floated up the altar and connected to it with a thought.
"Eh? Why is there a statue opposite?"
The Evil Eye High Priest sensed that the situation was amiss and turned to look at the yaksha clone.
The authority of the statue was higher than the altar, so when they bewitched humans, they had never let humans establish a statue.
Jiang Li had naturally already thought of a reason for this.
"Lord High Priest, the person who picked up the spiritual fragment opposite is the City Lord of a mortal city."
"I told them that Lord Vemacitrin is a True God and can grant them eternal life. That\'s why they were so convinced."
"However, that City Lord felt that only the altar was not enough to show his admiration so he insisted on creating a statue. I was afraid that I would arouse their suspicion, so I could only teach them the method to build the statue."
"I see. Forget it. They\'re just a bunch of stupid mortals. They won\'t be able to do anything."
The High Priest did not have much doubt as he directly projected his spirit through the altar to the statue.
For a moment, the voices of tens of thousands of people worshiping immediately entered his mind continuously. Even someone as powerful as him could not help but feel dizzy.
It was indeed a human city, and the bewitched mortals were so devout.
No wonder he could establish a statue and initiate a blood sacrifice in such a short period of time.
That yaksha was really a capable fellow.
In the mind of the Evil Eye High Priest, he had already imagined a scene of the City Lord sacrificing the people for eternal life.
To be able to fool an entire city with just bewitching words, he had to be at the level of ten professional psychologists.
However, why could he only hear a little bit of sound?
Tch, what a low-grade statue. It could not even link all five senses. This was all that mere mortals could do.
The High Priest was also quite vigilant. He stayed on the altar and listened for a while. The prayers and chanting never stopped. The content was very different, but the voices were endless. Hundreds of thousands of people were really worshiping this place.
It was basically impossible to rule out the possibility that cultivators of the human world were playing tricks.
Since it was not a cultivator, his vigilance immediately relaxed by 90%.
However, the voices he heard were actually illusions created by the citizens\' prayers to the thousand hands statue over the past tens of thousands of years. After being slightly modified by the statue clone, they were transmitted to his mind.
Forget about listening for a while, even if he listened to these prayers for a year in a row, he could not find a repeat.
The Thousand Hands Divine Statue clone isolated the other party\'s consciousness and only let it hear the prayers. In his opinion, he naturally felt that the quality of this statue was low, but it was something created by a mortal city. This level of skill was normal.
The Evil Eye High Priest smiled as he got down from the altar. A huge pile of blood-colored crystals and a beating black heart appeared out of thin air. He dragged them with his mind and piled them in the hands of the yaksha clone.
Although Jiang Li did not recognize them, he could tell at a glance how good they were.
"Eat these and work hard under me in the future."
"You\'re in charge of the blood sacrifice on this altar. Tell them if you need anything."
"After the blood sacrifice passageway widens, you can give them whatever they want. Lifespan, strength, and their greatest desires, use these to continue enticing them to strengthen the statue."
"As long as those cultivators don\'t find out, we can quickly open the passageway! Hahaha! I have to report the good news to Lord Vemacitrin!"
The Evil Eye High Priest\'s eyeballs floated away with a smile, leaving behind a group of Evil Eyes that fawned on the yaksha clone.
The few Evil Eyes that had originally accused him were trembling in fear as they offered their spiritual essence, the Evil Eye Tears, to beg for Lord Yaksha\'s forgiveness.
Seeing that he did not arouse any suspicion, on the continent of the Nine Provinces, Jiang Li also heaved a sigh of relief.
Using the Thousand-Hand Guanyin as the main material for the Thousand Hands Divine Statue was indeed a wise choice.
Otherwise, if he had to show up and deceive the other party, when the Evil Eye High Priest discovered that he was a cultivator, he would definitely be forced to drink the blood of madness.
Fortunately, there was the yaksha clone as a spy who knew in advance about the process of their scheme. There was only one way to deal with the situation.
As long as he told them that this was a mortal city, they would label him as harmless and valuable.
A mortal city was stupid and gullible, but it had a certain level of execution. It was the best target for their bewitching.
This way, the Vemacitrin Blood Fighting Arena would have sufficient expectations for this \'fat fish\'. Only by biting the huge bait would Jiang Li be able to obtain the greatest benefits.
The passageways on both sides were already connected, but they were still very small and could only transmit energy.
In order to widen the blood sacrifice passageway as soon as possible, the Asura World was continuously turning the blood of madness in the blood pool into pure energy to be sacrificed.
As the Thousand Hands Divine Statue received the pure blood energy, it would grow quickly.
The Divine Statue clone itself had a very good foundation. If this continued, perhaps in the future, it would become Jiang Li\'s strongest clone.
Eh?
Right at this moment, two drops of blood tears suddenly seeped out from the opened eyes of the Thousand Hands Divine Statue. They slid down along the face that was 90% similar to Jiang Li.
