I Steal the Ancestors' Sacrifices to Nourish Myself

Chapter 577: Chapter 237: Activating the Battle Banner, Crushing the Beast Form

Ji Land, midstream of the Guimu River.

A Tier Four Flying Ship was swiftly traversing, with a monkey-like shadow with yellow fur and red claws lying on board, enveloping the entire ship tightly.

Below in the wide river, a water dragon surged into the sky, condensing into an ice dragon mid-air, tearing apart the ship’s defensive Witch Array with a ’szlark’ sound.

A booming sound exploded, with part of the ship’s figures along with the vessel being frozen, starting to plummet from high altitude amidst continuous screams.

The Zhuyan Minister Elder Zhu Chi, who was overseeing the ship, was furious; as he fell from the shattered ship, he launched a sword light towards the water below, stirring up huge waves on the surface.

Roar!

A dragon’s chant echoed all around, countless ice blades formed from the diffused mist, violently bombarding towards Zhu Chi.

"Ah..." Zhu Chi was shocked, immediately being engulfed by the ice blades, his body trembling like sieved chaff, transformed into frozen fragments falling into the water.

"The Elder is dead!"

A Zhuyan Clansman who had fallen into the water shouted, but as soon as he spoke, the nearby water surface was also frozen into a block, cold air entered his body freezing him entirely.

The Glazed Dragon sprang from the water, claws slicing through like electricity, and the figures falling onto the water surface were first frozen, then shattered by the claws.

"Go!"

Quickly, the shattered ship was stored in the Witch Pouch, with Lord Jishan concealed beneath the water, not revealing himself, heading downstream alongside the Glazed Dragon.

...

On the other side.

A Flying Ship bearing the Cyan Sheep Bo Division’s flag was navigating through an unknown mountain range, just past a ridge.

But the barren mountaintop suddenly moved.

Shen Can, transformed into a giant beast avatar, rose from the summit, colliding with the ship.

No one aboard reacted before it exploded in mid-air above the mountaintop, the fiery blast sweeping all around.

After gathering the severed limbs, the giant beast avatar quickly left its location, searching for the next target.

...

Blazing Flame Race Territory.

Around the Grand Array, four pillar-like blood lights hovered in the air.

Within the blood light, each held a floating, closed-eyed Profound Bird, seemingly in a state of slumber, yet endlessly emitting dense Witch Runes from their bodies.

Below the light pillars, the Beast Form of the Profound Bird expanded to a size of a hundred yards, surrounded by a mist of blood.

Flying Ships docked beside the Beast Form, tossing figures directly towards it.

In the blood mist enveloping the Beast Form, the eyes of ancestors from various divisions flashed with madness, fixating on every subtle change of the Beast Form, eager to pounce onto it.

The Celestial Demon Ancestor, after transforming into a beast form, showed blood-colored eyes, unaware of his own transformation.

At this moment, he only saw innumerable Witch Runes within the Beast Form, discerning the changes woven among them.

He even subconsciously began mobilizing the blood energy within the Divine Treasure, attempting to mimic the changes of the Witch Runes of the Profound Bird Beast Form, to construct his own Beast Form.

Though he failed repeatedly, he still felt no fatigue, repeatedly immersing himself in the process.

Not only the Celestial Demon Ancestor, but also the ancestors like Cyan Sheep, Zhuyan, Changyou mirrored his actions.

The Beast Form activated by the blood ritual seemed to open a new door for them, providing guidance in the previously untraceable Tier Five Beast Form Realm.

"Get more sacrifices for me!"

The monkey-like Ancestor Changyou impatiently commanded his clan, "Are you all useless, only capturing this few sacrifices."

Changyou Minister Elder expressed some helplessness, facing the ancestor’s first encounter with such madness.

"Ancestor, Ji Land hardly has many people; they’ve all hidden now."

"Useless,"

"No people in Ji Land, but aren’t there plenty in Yongyi!"

"Yongyi has no shortage of people!"

"Why are you standing there, go capture now, don’t delay my comprehension of the Beast Form essence."

...

The reprimand of Ancestor Changyou was fully heard by the Great Witch Priest, who revealed a smile under his black robe.

The Beast Form is real, and its internal changes are real; it must be real to trap these old fellows who are stuck at Tier Four Peak.

In the area walked by the Great Witch Priest, the blood energy activated by the blood ritual within the Blood Light Pillars silently drifted out, secretly absorbed into the wide sleeves of the Great Witch Priest.

Each time seizing a tenth of the blood energy essence from the Blood Pillars.

Within the two sleeves of the Great Witch Priest, one was the Female Pearl, the other was the Yu Cheng Beast Form.

...

"Master, I’ve checked again; the Profound Birds suspended around the Grand Array are purely accumulating energy through the blood ritual, with no connections among them, likely set to explode directly."

Huo Shan and Huo Yunn arrived at the Side Hall of the Ancestral Temple.

After the Giant Beast Avatar and Kui Spirit returned, Shen Can also returned to cultivate on the ground from the Primordial Vein Cultivation Land.

At this moment, three Treasure Pills lay before him, having obtained double the Treasure Medicine from the Cyan Sheep Tribe Division compared to Bi Fang, all sent to Gui Rabbit for concoction.

He intended to use the Treasure Medicine to shorten the cultivation time, then make a breakthrough to the Peak of Divine Treasure in one go.

But the Holy Envoy Race clearly didn’t give him such a chance.

The Great Witch Priest of the Holy Envoy Race actually dared to steal his techniques.

Even with the avatars, Lord Jishan leading the warriors of the two races, deploying transmitted Battle Arrays to confront and repeatedly obstruct various divisions from transporting sacrifices here, capturing Human Race for the ritual, Yongyi was still abundant, making thorough prevention difficult.

Once the four Beast Forms amassed enough power and exploded, the array might not withstand.

Considering the situation, there’s a high chance he won’t achieve the Peak of Divine Treasure before the Holy Envoy Race initiates the explosion on their end.

Being the creator and having detonated others many times, Shen Can truly knew the pain of such a blast.
