The Romance of the Immortal Cauldron

Chapter 2495 Horrible Conjecture

"Go on." After a moment of silence, Matthew slowly raised his head, his eyes fell on Xingyan, and spoke.

After hearing this, Xingyan nodded slightly, with a serious and focused expression on her face.

"The biggest gain from my trip this time was not finding out about the demons besieging the God-Slaying Temple. In fact, I sensed the fluctuation of the formation near the God-Slaying Temple headquarters." Xing Yan took a deep breath and said slowly.

There was a hint of solemnity in her eyes, as if she was recalling the scene at that time.

"However, I have not been able to find the specific location of the formation, so I have no idea what kind of formation it is."

She paused for a moment, glanced at everyone, and continued, "The range of the magic circle is extremely large. It will probably take a lot of time to set it up. According to my guess, the range of this magic circle is very likely to have covered the headquarters of the God-Slaying Temple and other surrounding areas! However, even the ghosts lurking in the God-Slaying Temple are completely unaware of this."

Liu Yulong, who had been silent all this time, suddenly changed his expression after hearing Xing Yan's words.

His brows were furrowed, his eyes were filled with shock, and he asked hurriedly, "Senior Xingyan, how big is the headquarters of the God-Slaughtering Temple?"

"After their continuous expansion, the area of ​​the God-Slaying Temple headquarters has now reached 40,000 to 50,000 miles. And I discovered that the location of the magic circle fluctuations is at least thousands of miles away from the God-Slaying Temple headquarters!"

Xing Yan had obviously expected Liu Yulong to ask this question, so she immediately gave an answer after the other party opened his mouth.

When everyone heard the news, their eyes widened.

The scope of a magic array of this scale is far beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

To set up such a huge magic array, it is definitely not something that can be accomplished by just a few array masters.

This not only requires the coordinated cooperation of many formation masters, but also consumes countless materials.

As a master of formations, Liu Yulong felt this deeply.

He knew very well how difficult it was to set up a magic array of such a large scope.

In his opinion, this was an almost impossible task.

"The power of such a large-scale array must be unimaginable. I really want to see what kind of array it is. In any case, any array has its limit. If it exceeds the limit, no matter how many array flags are deployed, it cannot be used."

Liu Yulong let out a long breath and said with emotion.

After Liu Yulong finished speaking, the cabin fell into silence.

Everyone was immersed in this shocking news, constantly thinking about the possible impact of this giant magic circle.

The news that Xing Yan brought back this time was undoubtedly very important, but it also made the situation more complicated.

Everyone understood that there must be an unknown secret hidden behind this giant magic circle, and this secret might have a significant impact on them.

At this time, Matthew took out several pieces of paper and pen from his storage bag and handed them to each person in turn.

"Write down all your thoughts and doubts, and let's really start a review." Matthew's voice was steady and firm. After he finished speaking, he picked up a pen and paper and began to write.

Seeing this, the others also picked up paper and pen and carefully wrote down their doubts and thoughts.

After a while, Xingyan collected all the questions written by everyone and sorted them out carefully.

She weeded out recurring questions one by one, ensuring that each question had unique value.

"Okay, let's start discussing now."

Xing Yan put the questions she had sorted out aside, glanced at everyone, and spoke.

Everyone nodded and began to discuss these issues.

Based on the information they currently have, they try to find clues to solve the problem.

Soon, one question after another was answered.

Through communication and thinking, everyone has a clearer understanding of some issues.

However, when the questions raised were answered one after another, new problems emerged like mushrooms after rain.

At this moment, the biggest confusion surrounding them was the giant magic circle.

What exactly is this magic circle?

Was it arranged by the Temple of Slaughtering God?

If it was arranged by the Temple of Slaughter, what was their purpose?

Everyone fell into deep thought. The appearance of this giant magic circle broke their previous cognition.

Such a huge magic formation must be supported by a powerful force behind it.

"We overlooked one thing." After the routine was over, Matthew took a deep breath and said.

As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes fell on Matthew.

They also wondered what had been overlooked.

"When the blood dwarfs betrayed us, they chose to cooperate with the Temple of Slaughter." Matthew said slowly.

Except for the four beast kings and Yue Ling, everyone else nodded slightly.

"If we are a little bolder, imagine that the blood clan and the Slaughtering God Temple are one. Everything they do is for the Blood God." Matthew's eyes suddenly became sharp and he looked at everyone and said.

After Matthew finished speaking, everyone else was visibly stunned.

They had never thought about these things in this way.

"I once read a book of miscellaneous notes, which recorded a catastrophe of great impact that occurred in the human world. However, the book did not say what the catastrophe was, only that countless cultivators turned into blood mist in a short period of time and then disappeared."

"I just combined the contents of the notes with the huge magic circle that Xingyan mentioned, and I came up with a bold guess in my mind." Matthew continued.

After Matthew finished speaking, he looked at Xingyan and Yueru as if to see if they understood what he meant.

After Xingyan and Yueru looked at each other, their mouths opened slightly, and then Xingyan uttered two words with difficulty.

"Blood sacrifice!"

"Yes, it's a blood sacrifice." Matthew nodded.

Blood sacrifice is an extremely cruel secret method of sacrifice in the world of immortal cultivation, which uses the flesh and blood of cultivators as material for the sacrifice.

The reason why the blood clan was ruthlessly hunted down by the entire cultivation world in the past was because they slaughtered monks wantonly.

But it is far from the horrific consequences brought about by blood sacrifice.

"Could it be that the formation is a blood sacrifice formation?" Liu Yulong said, licking his dry lips.

It was obvious that there was a slight tremor in his voice.

"Then what about those blood-colored ribbons in the sky!" Lan Yue also reacted at this moment and said hurriedly.

"That's right, if it is a blood sacrifice, the appearance of those blood-colored ribbons can be reasonably explained. Although I have not seen a blood sacrifice with my own eyes, I have heard of it. Those blood-colored ribbons are very likely the precursor to a blood sacrifice!" Xing Yan said after nodding heavily.

They would never have imagined that the situation would develop to this extent.

Of course, all this is just a horrible guess of theirs, and there is no real evidence.
