Chapter 6081 The Cry of the Ghost of a Venerable Saint
Taking advantage of the opportunity, the golden-crowned cultivator rushed towards David, a golden long sword appearing in his hand: “Boy, prepare to die!”
“Divine King Sword Technique – Heavenly Punishment!”
The golden sword light, like thunder from the sky, carrying a majestic divine power, slashed towards David.
This sword strike contained the power of the divine royal bloodline, and its power was so great that the entire cave trembled.
The golden-crowned cultivator was at the peak of the seventh rank of the Upper Immortal Realm. With the blessing of the God King bloodline, the power of this sword was approaching that of the eighth rank of the Upper Immortal Realm!
But David was not afraid at all.
“A trivial skill.”
The Dragon Slayer Sword was held horizontally, and a gray sword light condensed.
No complicated movements, just a simple straight push.
bite!
The tips of the two swords clashed precisely.
Time seemed to stop for a moment.
The golden sword light was shattered instantly!
The golden sword in the golden-crowned cultivator’s hand shattered into pieces. He himself was struck as if by a heavy blow, flung backward and crashing into the cave wall, spitting out a mouthful of blood.
“What cultivation level…what cultivation level are you at?!”
The golden-crowned monk felt terrified.
He clearly sensed that David was only at the peak of the first rank of the Upper Immortal Realm, so why was his combat power so terrifying?
David didn’t answer. He stepped forward and was already in front of the golden-crowned cultivator, with the Dragon Slaying Sword pressed to his throat.
“Tell me, what exactly happened to this sacred mountain? Why did the gods create ghost corpses?”
The golden-crowned cultivator’s face was deathly pale, but a glimmer of madness flashed in his eyes: “Heh heh… you can’t stop it… the eight altars have been activated, the blood sacrifice array is complete… His Highness the Ghost Cry will soon reappear… at that time, you will all die…”
“Stubborn and stubborn”.
David thrust the tip of his sword forward, piercing the golden-crowned cultivator’s throat halfway through. “If you don’t talk, I’ll kill you right now.”
The fear of death finally overcame his madness, and the golden-crowned monk stammered, “I will speak… I will speak…”
“The Holy Mountain… the entire Holy Mountain… is actually the transformed corpse of the Weeping Saint…”
What?!
David and Ming Li were both shocked.
Is the entire sacred mountain a corpse that has transformed?
“Tens of thousands of years ago, the Ghost Crying Saint fought a great battle against the three True Gods of the Temple and was finally defeated here.”
The golden-crowned cultivator said with difficulty, “But his cultivation was extraordinary. Even after his death, his body was immortal and indestructible. Instead, he absorbed the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and transformed into mountains…”
“The previous temple heads all attempted to control this sacred corpse, but the Ghost Weeping Saint Venerable placed a restriction on it before his death, making it uncontrollable by those without ghost blood. Until three hundred years ago, the current temple head, Divine Power, devised a method to forcibly awaken the remaining consciousness within the corpse through a blood sacrifice, and then refine it into a ghost corpse using a secret divine technique…”
“In this way, the limitations imposed on the Holy Venerable Ghost Cry during his lifetime will be eroded by the power of blood sacrifice, and he will ultimately be controlled by the temple…”
The golden-crowned cultivator coughed up blood: “Eight altars… each corresponds to one of the eight parts of the corpse key… Once the blood sacrifice array is completed… all living beings on the entire Holy Mountain will be sacrificed… to resurrect the Ghost Weeping Saint’s corpse… and refine it into a ghost corpse that only obeys the temple…”
“Your methods are truly cruel!” Ming Li was furious.
The Holy Venerable of the Ghost Clan, even in death his body could not find peace, and was instead used as a puppet by his enemies—what a shame!
David’s gaze grew colder: “The eight pillars of light at the top of the mountain are eight altars?”
“Yes… The Blood Sacrifice Formation has been activated 70%… in another quarter of an hour… it will be fully formed…”
The golden-crowned cultivator laughed bitterly, “You can’t stop it… That altar is guarded by mighty gods… and once the formation is activated… unless three or more altars are destroyed simultaneously… it cannot be stopped…”
“It’s too late now…”
As if to reinforce his words, the sacred mountain trembled even more.
The eight crimson light pillars at the top of the mountain grew brighter, and the crimson energy connected to each other almost solidified.
All living beings throughout the sacred mountain region felt their blood boil, and those with slightly weaker cultivation levels began to bleed from their seven orifices!
The pilgrims were horrified to discover that their vital essence was being extracted uncontrollably and transformed into blood droplets that flew towards the mountain peak.
They wanted to escape, but there seemed to be an invisible barrier within the sacred mountain, blocking all their paths.
“Helpful!”
“Let us out!”
“The gods have deceived us! This is not a holy mountain, but a demon’s lair!”
Screams and cries echoed throughout the sacred mountain.
Inside the cave, the vibrations of the Ghost Cry Saint statue reached its peak.
Most of the outer layer of the stone was peeled off, revealing the jet black interior.
It was a ghost-like figure one hundred feet tall, with a human body, a snake tail, and eight ferocious arms.
Even though his eyes remained closed, the aura he radiated was already distorting the space around him.
“He will wake up soon…”
The golden-crowned monk stared at the statue in awe, “The Saint will soon rise…”
Without hesitation, David ended the golden-crowned cultivator’s life with one slash of his sword.
“Mingli, let’s split up.”
David quickly made a decision: “You go and disrupt the blood sacrifice ritual in the cave to prevent the statue from fully awakening. I will go to the top of the mountain and destroy the altar as best I can.”
“But Mr. Chen, there must be powerful gods guarding the mountaintop. You’re all alone…” Ming Li said anxiously.
“It doesn’t matter.”
David looked at the statue that was almost awake, “If we let it fully awaken, it will be a big problem. You try to stop it here, I will go to the top of the mountain and try.”
“Besides, these controlled monks…”
David looked at the cultivators controlled by the Soul Control Bell and surrounding Ming Li.
Ming Li gritted his teeth: “I will find a way to break that control. The Ghost Clan has a secret technique to break the soul control technique, but it will take time.”
“Okay, let’s speed it up.”
Without saying a word, David rushed out of the cave.
The holy cultivators along the way tried to stop him, but none were able to stop David’s sword light.
He moved at lightning speed through the cave’s corridors, quickly exiting the cave and heading towards the outside world.
