He stood up, turned around, and left.
David sat in the secret room, watching his back, a thoughtful look in his eyes.
When Qingxuzi heard “a bowl of blood” just now, the excitement in his eyes was very visible.
That expression didn’t seem like that of someone who had gained an ally; more like a hunter looking at prey that had fallen into a trap, his eyes filled with greed and anticipation.
“Is it really just a bowl of blood?”
David mused to himself, “The Divine Hall is known as the holy place of the path of truth, so why is this place so obsessed with my bloodline? There must be something more than meets the eye.”
However, at that time he had no other choice.
With the lives of Musa and his wife hanging in the balance, he had no choice but to take the risk.
If the souls of Moses and his wife had truly disappeared, there was no way to return them, whatever method was used.
The God of Gambling Hall would truly keep his word, and Du Qingxuzi was indeed a senior of great respect and integrity.
Despite knowing it was a fire pit, he had to jump in for the sake of his brothers.
A moment later, the door to the secret room was pushed open again.
Elder Qingxuan entered, followed by two disciples from the Divine Hall, each carrying various magical artifacts.
There were sparkling bronze bells, jade plates that radiated a cold aura, and ancient sheepskin scrolls filled with incomprehensible symbols.
Elder Qingxuan smiled and said, “Brother Daoist Chen, the ceremony is ready. Please follow me.”
David stood up and followed him out of the secret room.
After passing through several palaces, the three arrived at a side hall.
This side hall is located on the west side of the temple. The location is relatively remote, and the environment is quiet. You can’t even hear the birds chirping, which gives the impression of silence.
The doors of the side hall were tightly closed, covered with sinister runes that faintly glowed red, giving off an eerie feeling, as if there was something evil confined within.
Elder Qingxuan pushed open the door, and a musty smell wafted out, mixed with the faint smell of blood.
Inside the side hall, a huge magic array had been set up. The array covered the entire floor of the hall, the patterns tightly woven together like a spider web.
The array pattern emitted a faint golden light, but deep within that light, there seemed to be a wisp of black mist that sent shivers down one’s spine.
In the center of the magic circle, there was a jade bowl. The bowl was as big as a washing basin, pure white, and carved with complicated dragon patterns, as if waiting to be flooded with blood.
“Brother Daoist Chen, please enter the formation.”
Elder Qingxuan pointed at the center of the magic array and said, his tone containing an air of undeniable authority.
David stepped into formation. His steps were steady and without the slightest hesitation, as if he had long been ready to die.
Elder Qingxuan and his two disciples left the side hall and closed the hall door.
The sound of the lock closing sounded very disturbing in the silent hall, like a countdown to death.
Alarms went off in David’s mind. Just then, the magic array slowly activated.
The golden light grew stronger and denser, completely enveloping David.
A strange power began to suck the bloodline power from his body.
At first, the power was gentle, as if it was guiding.
But soon, it became domineering, like countless greedy hands, frantically tearing his blood vessels and sucking his blood.
David frowned slightly. He sensed that the power was much more domineering than he had imagined.
The extraction speed is also much faster than the “bowl”.
At this speed, his blood would be exhausted in less than half the duration of an incense stick!
He tried to resist, but realized that he couldn’t move his body!
Without realizing it, an invisible binding force appeared within the magic array, binding his limbs firmly in place.
No matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t break free in the slightest.
