Chapter 461: Nine Heavenly Rituals
oth heaven and earth, was surrounded by people. And Jiang Yun, who had never spoken a word, finally opened his mouth and said: “Sixty-four, except for Xing Mo, are all here!”First published on the Tr...Gu Bulao passed down this technique to Jiang Yun, which was actually a kind of secret art called Nine Sacrifices to Heaven!
In short, it is about offering one's own possessions as sacrifices to heaven.
In total, you can perform the celestial ritual nine times. After each successful ritual, you will be blessed by the power of heaven, temporarily enhancing your strength.
One's own things, rather than tangible objects, refer to everything one possesses, such as flesh and blood, life force, spiritual energy, vitality, etc.
Since it's a secret art, just like Ginger Cloud's self-created Three Bodies Unification, while enhancing one's strength, it will undoubtedly also inflict harm upon oneself.
The Nine Sacrifices to Heaven are also the same. The items offered to Heaven, once offered, will be absorbed by Heaven and disappear from oneself forever.
Moreover, if one continuously performs ceremonies for a short period of time, the required offerings cannot be changed, and their quantity will also increase exponentially.
For example, if you choose to use blood for the first sacrifice, then every subsequent sacrifice must also be blood.
The first time you offer sacrifices to the heavens, perhaps only ten drops of blood are needed. The second time, it may require thirty drops of blood. The third time, it could be as many as a hundred.
If one truly wants to complete nine sacrifices, then they would have to offer up their very lifeblood.
But if it were truly possible to perform nine celestial sacrifices, the power of heaven one could obtain would be enough for anyone to transcend from mortal to a powerful being blessed by heaven.
After learning about this technique, Jiang Yun's evaluation of it was only four words—overbearing and heaven-defying!
This technique is extremely useful for Ginger Cloud, at least for now.
And he doesn't need to truly complete nine sacrifices to heaven. With his current strength, after two sacrifices to heaven, he will probably be able to fight a cultivator who has reached the consummation of the cave heaven realm.
If one were to perform the ritual three or four times, they could even fight against those at the Dao Spirit Realm.
However, Gingercloud also knew that this technique was like the three bodies merging into one, and it should absolutely not be used unless there was no other way.
But no matter what, this skill gave Jiang Yun another powerful trump card!
From then on, Jiang Yun immersed himself entirely in the cultivation of this art.
Just as Jiang Yun began to cultivate the Nine Sacrificial Heavenly Art, most of the clans within the Hundred Families Land had already set off, bringing along vast herds of beasts, heading towards Mu Village.
As Xiao Yun said, all clans who want to participate in the Beast Fighting Tournament must attach themselves to the Kimura clan and depart six months in advance.
Where Kimura is located, it is not a mountain valley, but a cluster of mountains.
Looking down from above, between the mountains, one can see houses everywhere, as well as all sorts of animals.
On the peak of a mountain, Mu Congsheng, whom Jiang Yun had once seen, was glaring at a middle-aged man with streaks of white in his hair. "Father," he said, his face full of displeasure, "I think we should skip this year's Beast Fighting Tournament!"
The middle-aged man is none other than the village head of Kimu, Mukunami.
His gaze was fixed on the groups arriving one after another at the entrance of the village. Hearing his son speak in such a dejected manner, he couldn't help but frown slightly and ask, "Why"
"Because even if we go, we probably won't be able to beat Jiangyun. Why bother wasting money and effort traveling all that way!"
Mu Wanchun shook his head and said, "That Jiang Yun is only skilled at taming beasts. In the Beast Fighting Competition, it's the beasts' strength that matters!"
He had six different beasts in his hand, the strongest being that bat. The three elders estimated that the bat should only be a fourth-level beast.
"And within our family, there also exist four-tiered beasts. Therefore, who is superior and who is inferior remains to be seen!"
Although Mu Wanchun said this, a clear disdain could be seen on Mu Congsheng's face.
Mu Wanchun continued, "Furthermore, even if we can't defeat Jiang Yun, the entire Nanman land is filled with hidden dragons and crouching tigers. It's impossible for him to be the ultimate winner of the Beast Fighting Tournament!"
"Besides, I'll also prepare for my father. Taking advantage of this beast-fighting tournament, I'll investigate the origins of this Jiang Yun and see if there's a chance to kill him!"
Upon hearing his father's words, the eyes of Mu Congsheng instantly lit up and he exclaimed, "If that's the case, then we should definitely go to the Beast Fighting Grand Assembly!"
Of course!
Mu Wanchun suddenly turned his head to look at Mu Congsheng, with a smile that wasn't quite a smile, and said: "There's one more thing, also the reason we have to go!"
Mu Congsheng puzzled asked, "What's going on"
It is said that the Xia family wants to use this beast-fighting competition to find a suitable husband for their third daughter, Xia Mingzhu!
"Summer Pearl!"
As soon as he heard those three words, Mu Congsheng's eyes almost lit up. However, they dimmed slightly almost immediately, and he shook his head in reluctance. "Father, Xia Mingzhu is the number one beauty on the Nanman Continent, and the Xia family is a powerful Daoist clan. How could they possibly look down on me"
"That's not necessarily true!" Mu Wanchun smiled mysteriously. "Anyway, you can rest assured that you still have a chance!"
"Really"
Although his father didn't explain how he could possibly have the opportunity, Mokuzō also believed that his father wouldn't lie to him about this, so he immediately became cheerful again and said: "Father, then what are we waiting for Let's set off right away!"
"Haha, you go tidy up first. We'll set off after all the clans are gathered!"
"Good!"
Mo Congsheng answered with a sound, immediately jumping and bouncing towards the mountain.
Looking at his son's departing figure, Mu Wanchun's smile gradually faded, and his brow furrowed. "This Jiang Yun, what is his background exactly People I sent out to investigate have returned one after another, but none of them have any information about him."
"If he wasn't a member of the Dao clan, then given Yu Cangwu's pampered and frivolous personality, how could they possibly be friends"
But, if Old Jiu Xia hasn't lied to me, this time Cong Sheng could really win over the Xia family and become their son-in-law. Then, no matter who you are, it wouldn't matter!
……
After a month, Ginger Cloud had mastered the basics of the Nine Sacrificial Heavens Art. It wasn't that he didn't want to continue cultivating, but with the things he could currently use as offerings, he could only perform three sacrifices at most.
Four times a celestial sacrifice was required, he had to offer his life. So there was no point in cultivating any further.
At this time, Ginger Cloud focused his attention on the Life and Death Demon Seal!
Bai Ze said that the imprint of life and death might be the key to helping this ancient desolate world achieve its Dao.
Moreover, he had a strong feeling that this time's Beast Fighting Competition, the Seal of Life and Death would come in handy, so he decided to spend the remaining time comprehending the Seal of Life and Death well, hoping to gain something.
A black stone emerged from the dantian, and six spirit stones exploded with a sound.
Jiang Yun only felt a flower in front of his eyes, and vaguely saw an incredibly complex seal. In the blink of an eye, it was imprinted into his body.
Initially, when facing the life-and-death demonic seal on the Reverse Demon Bridge, Jiang Yun had no power to resist at all. He thought that as his strength increased, he should at least be able to withstand it.
However, what he didn't expect was that even now, he was still unable to resist it, and he still couldn't see through this life-and-death demon seal.
Thanks to this being a feeling rather than the true attack of the Life and Death Demon Seal, as the water reformed into black stone, Jiang Yun also woke up.
"Once is not enough, then twice, twice is not enough, then ten times, ten times is not enough, then a hundred times!"
Jiang Yun had thrown caution to the wind. After all, he had plenty of spirit stones now.
The medicinal pills he sold allowed him to amass over ten million spirit stones. Therefore, in the next two months, even if he faced off against the Life and Death Demon Seal head-on!
In the blink of an eye, two months had passed. Within the Xiao family valley, Xiao Wangjie and Xiao Yun along with others were already prepared.
Because they had already received a voice transmission from Jiang Yun yesterday, informing them to set off today and participate in the Beast Fighting Grand Tournament!
