Chapter 265 The Channel Appears
Xuanyuan Ba pondered for a moment. Although the condition was somewhat restrictive, it did not affect their key objective for this trip. As long as they obtained the Law Crystal and enabled their ancestor to successfully break through and resolve the crisis of his approaching lifespan, the Xuanyuan family would always be at its zenith!
So, Xuanyuan Ba nodded and said, "Alright, let's do as Fellow Daoist Ji Rong says!"
Although Sima Kun was still dissatisfied, seeing that Xuan Yuanba had already agreed, he knew that if he continued to argue, he would become the target of public criticism, so he had no choice but to nod in agreement.
Just then, the golden crow that had been still in the sky suddenly flapped its wings.
The already dreamlike illusory images of the sun, moon, mountains, and rivers below were instantly distorted violently as if struck by a raging torrent.
Then, a mysterious area they had never seen before suddenly appeared out of nowhere, as if it came from the chaos of ancient times, exuding endless unknowns and eeriness.
While everyone was still in shock, a huge portal suddenly appeared in that area they had never seen before.
The gate soars into the clouds, seemingly connected to heaven and earth, exuding an ancient and profound aura, like an ancient barrier between heaven and earth.
The portal was covered with densely packed runes, and on each side stood a huge statue of a mythical beast.
The mythical beast has a ferocious appearance. Although it is still, it gives people a terrifying feeling that it will wake up instantly and devour people at the slightest disturbance.
Those empty eyes, yet seemingly concealing endless killing intent, stared directly at the crowd below, as if warning anyone who dared to approach.
Everyone's attention was completely drawn to this sudden scene, and for a moment they were speechless.
After a long silence, Xuanyuan Ba broke the silence first. He narrowed his eyes slightly and said in a trembling voice, "Fellow Daoists, this is the gateway to the Ancient Profound Dao Field. What are your thoughts?"
Sima Kun swallowed hard, his eyes filled with barely concealed excitement and greed. "Such an opportunity is right before my eyes, it would be a lie to say I don't want it. But this portal is so strange, opening it will definitely be difficult."
Ji Rong frowned, a hint of worry in his heart. "It is indeed strange. Acting rashly could lead to disaster. But if we miss this opportunity, I will be unwilling to give up."
Xuanyuan Ba took a deep breath, a barely perceptible ruthlessness flashing in his eyes, and lowered his voice to say, "To be honest, my Xuanyuan family ancestor left behind a few words mentioning the method to open this door. However... this method is somewhat cruel."
"Hmph! Such a great opportunity cannot be easily obtained without some extraordinary means." Sima Kun's words were cold, but his eyes revealed urgency. He then urged, "Fellow Daoist Xuanyuan Ba, you might as well speak frankly and not hold back."
Ji Rong's heart tightened, vaguely guessing that it wasn't some righteous path, but tempted by this great opportunity, he couldn't help but prick up his ears.
Xuanyuan Ba gritted his teeth and said fiercely, "It requires a blood sacrifice of the essence and blood of a large number of cultivators to open this door."
Upon hearing this, Sima Kun and Ji Rong frowned and stared at Xuan Yuanba with some hostility. "Fellow Daoist Xuan Yuan, did you intend to sacrifice us from the very beginning?"
Xuanyuan Ba remained unfazed and replied in an icy voice, "I have never intended to harm you two fellow Daoists. It's time to put these rogue cultivators who accompanied me into the secret realm to good use!"
Upon hearing this, Sima Kun and Ji Rong's expressions softened slightly.
"Wushuang, bring those scattered ones in quickly with the Demon Suppression Tower!" Ji Rong waved his hand and ordered.
Seeing this, Sima Kun handed over the Sifang Beast Cauldron to a member of his clan, while he himself stayed behind to oversee the situation, fearing that the other two families might plot against him.
After all, the opportunities offered by this ancient Xuan Dao site are too tempting, and people's hearts are unpredictable in the face of enormous benefits.
Xuanyuan Ba glanced at the two of them, then said, "This blood sacrifice is of utmost importance. We must ensure that there is enough essence blood. Let me make this clear: if the essence blood of the rogue cultivators is insufficient, your two families will have to find a way to make up for it. After all, my Xuanyuan family has already suffered some losses in order to resist the interference of the Rakshasa tide!"
Upon hearing this, a flicker of hesitation crossed Sima Kun's and Ji Rong's eyes, but it was quickly replaced by greed...
