Chapter 264 Tower of Trial
Tianyu and Fang Chen didn't say another word and forced themselves to watch the entire blood sacrifice.

Fang Chen himself did not expect that he could remain expressionless in front of such a scene.

The main reason was that the scene of blood sacrifice was not quite the same as what he had imagined.

Blood is inevitable, but after experiencing that illusion, his resistance to blood has been greatly enhanced, and he no longer shows discomfort as before.

In his previous understanding, the people who were sacrificed should be full of despair, but they did not make a single scream from beginning to end. From their lifeless eyes, Fang Chen saw deep fatigue.

It seems that becoming a sacrifice is a relief for them.

The calmness of the sacrifice was the main reason why Fang Chen and Tian Yu remained silent.

Even though the blood sacrifice is over now, you can still see the blood-red sky above the altar through the window.

"It is hard to imagine what kind of inhuman torture they went through before becoming sacrifices, and why they regarded the final death as a relief."

It was Fang Chen who broke the silence first. Although he said that, since he was transmitting his voice through his spiritual consciousness, the box remained silent.

"Just look at the various secret techniques of the demon cultivators and you will know that they either need souls or flesh and blood. Most of the mortals living in the Star-Moon Sea are basically used to provide these consumables. You can imagine what they have experienced. Alas..."

Tianyu quickly answered Fang Chen. It could be heard that he sympathized with the plight of these mortals, and he sighed at his own current powerlessness.

Fang Chen himself felt the same way. He wanted to rush out of the box to stop all this, but he couldn't.

The dozen or so people on the altar, including the two human puppets that looked like his parents, were at least Jindan cultivators. Even Tianyu, trapped in their siege, could only flee.

"Before we completely eliminate or transform most of the demon cultivators, similar things will happen all the time. Let's not talk about this for now. Senior, you have personally witnessed the blood sacrifice process. I wonder if you can determine the object of their blood sacrifice?"

Fang Chen shook his head and stopped thinking about the blood sacrifice process, but asked about another matter.

In fact, Tianyu did not mention his purpose to him, but Fang Chen was not a fool and had guessed his thoughts long ago.

However, Fang Chen's question was not answered immediately. After a moment of silence, Tianyu replied through voice transmission.

"This is exactly what I don't understand. At the end of the blood sacrifice, I felt the origin of the Heavenly Dao."

"The origin of the Heavenly Dao?!"

Fang Chen was shocked. According to Zhu Yueyao, Yue Yunni and Tianyu, this was a power that only Heaven could control.

Since the breath of the origin of Heaven's Way has appeared, it is not difficult to guess the object of the sacrifice. It must be Heaven's Way.

After all, no one except the Heavenly Dao can utilize this energy.

In order for Fang Chen to use the Heavenly Derivatives Method, he must also establish a connection with the Heavenly Dao, and have the Heavenly Dao transmit the origin of the Heavenly Dao.

"The origin of the Heavenly Dao can be transformed into all things. This can also explain why the blood sacrifice has all kinds of magical powers. It can not only heal injuries and improve cultivation, but also help people escape from difficulties. It is simply like an omnipotent wish-making machine."

Although it is hard to believe, if the origin of the Heavenly Dao can be produced after the blood sacrifice, then all the doubts about the blood sacrifice will be explained.

But he couldn't understand why the Heavenly Dao would do such a thing?
This is digging your own grave.

"Is it possible that these Heavenly Dao origins did not come from Heavenly Dao, but were transformed through blood sacrifice?"

Fang Chen also didn't want the Heavenly Dao to stand behind the demon cultivators. If that happened, the price to pay to fight against them would be much greater.

So he proposed another hypothesis.

After all, judging from the current situation, it doesn't seem like the Heavenly Dao is standing against them.

"You forgot that blood sacrifice can be owed. Even if we tie it up, it can still escape through blood sacrifice and then make up the sacrifice. If the blood sacrifice simply produced the origin of the Heavenly Dao, how could this happen?"

Tianyu shook his head and rejected Fang Chen's guess.

"That's even more suspicious. Does Heaven have a clear consciousness that can respond to everyone? If not, something that is clearly a contract could not have been signed between Him and someone else. I'm more inclined to believe that the object of the blood sacrifice is someone else."

Fang Chen also directly refuted that the example given by Tianyu could not convince him.

"So what do you think will happen?"

Tianyu thought about it carefully and felt that what Fang Chen said made sense. The way of heaven had no self-awareness and would only instinctively seek benefits and avoid harm.

For example, through Fang Chen's revival of the Moon God and the Blood God, it was His response to the impending crisis.

This is also the reason why Tai Chi Lingzhu was born.

It is indeed unlikely that the Heavenly Dao can reach a contract with someone.

He was blinded by the superficial things about the origin of the Heavenly Dao and did not think more deeply.

It was also thanks to Fang Chen who woke him up.

Indeed, in his cognition, the origin of Heaven's Way is indeed a power that only Heaven's Way can control.

Then no matter what, he was only an Immortal Emperor and had never transcended the constraints of the Heavenly Dao. Perhaps the holy clan with more than one saint in the clan does have the ability to transform the origin of the Heavenly Dao.

"That's not right. If the Saints have mastered the method of transforming the origin of the Heavenly Dao, then why do they have to conquer every world and snatch the origin of the Heavenly Dao from those worlds?"

However, if the holy people were to be used as objects of blood sacrifice, unexplainable questions would arise.

But one thing that cannot be denied is that the Holy Clan has a close connection with the method of blood sacrifice, and the prevalence of the method of blood sacrifice only occurred after the invasion of the Holy Clan.

It is obviously impossible to say that there is no connection between the two.

"Why does it feel like the more clues we have, the more confusing the truth becomes?" Tianyu smiled bitterly and complained to Fang Chen through voice transmission.

"This shows that the information we have is not comprehensive enough. Just like my case, I thought I was just an ordinary time traveler at first, but as I collected more and more intelligence, I realized that I was just a pawn in someone else's chess game."

Fang Chen seemed very open-minded about this. He shrugged and transmitted his voice.

"I didn't expect you to be so calm about being a pawn."

Tianyu looked at Fang Chen in surprise. He had also noticed this a long time ago, but he did not mention it to Fang Chen because he was afraid that the other party would find it difficult to accept it after hearing it.

Unexpectedly, Fang Chen had already noticed it, and seemed to have no feelings about it.

"You can only become a chess piece if you are valuable. Most people in the cultivation world are not even worthy of being a chess piece. From this perspective, I am already much better than them."

Fang Chen smiled and expressed his views to Tianyu.

There is another point he didn't say. A chess piece cannot always be a chess piece. As long as the player can understand the situation on the chessboard, the chess piece can also escape the control of the player.

What he is doing is to understand the situation.

Tianyu cast an admiring look at Fang Chen and was about to say something when Fang Chen's "father" spoke again on the altar: "The sacrifice is over, and this victory will definitely belong to us!"

After some polite words, the party was declared over.

There was no time for people to react. The invitation letter that Fang Chen had casually placed on the table suddenly glowed brightly and then teleported the two of them out.

"It's still in the Xingyue Palace, but it's a different place than when we came in."

The sudden teleportation made both of them lose their minds for a moment. Tianyu came back to his senses first. After looking around, he recognized where they were.

"Different? Then how do we get out?"

Fang Chen also woke up at this time, and became alert when he heard Tianyu say this.

Could it be that the Demonic Alliance recognized their identities and planned to silence them?

"From here, this is also one of the exits. The cave in the Xingyue Palace is much more powerful than your immortal residence. There is more than one exit. Oh, the one in Taiji Immortal City can be compared with it."

Out of caution, the two of them communicated by voice to avoid being heard by outsiders.

"Then leave immediately."

This is the enemy's base camp, and Fang Chen doesn't want to stay any longer, so he urges Tianyu to lead the way.

Tianyu didn't say anything, just looked up somewhere and led Fang Chen to find the exit.

After the two figures disappeared in the Xingyue Palace, two figures emerged from the air in the direction Tianyu was looking.

If the two were still here, they would definitely recognize one of them as the person from the Saint Clan they met that day.

As for the other person, he looked like an old man, but I didn't know if he was also a member of the Saint Clan.

"Have you noticed us? You are indeed a human puppet made by the Emperor of Fengdu."

Looking at the direction where the two people disappeared, the old man couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

"Are they really from the Land of Reincarnation?"

Hearing what the old man said, the young man from the Saint Clan frowned. It seemed that he did not believe Fang Chen's words at first.

"Of course, the person who claims to be the disciple of Fengdu Emperor has the aura of the authentic Ghost King Sutra, which is one of the core techniques of the Land of Samsara. Even if he is not the disciple of Fengdu Emperor, he must be related to the Land of Samsara."

The old man nodded, helping Fang Chen to confirm his fabricated identity.

"What should we do? The plan has reached a critical moment, but someone from the Land of Samsara has come to interfere. I'm afraid there will be twists and turns. Should we——"

As he spoke, the young man from the Saint Clan made a gesture of wiping his neck, obviously asking whether Fang Chen and the other two should be eliminated.

"Don't conflict with them first. Send someone to keep an eye on them. What the Land of Samsara desires is nothing more than the rules of reincarnation. It does not conflict with our core interests. We can even cooperate with them."

The old man shook his head. It was precisely because it was a critical moment that they could not easily provoke forces like the Land of Samsara.

"OK then."

The young man from the Saint Clan nodded disappointedly and said nothing more.

The two men did not notice that some formation patterns on the land where Tianyu was standing were disappearing rapidly.

Tianyu heard all the conversation between them.

At this time, Tianyu and Fang Chen had also returned to the yard they rented.

"I have to share the information I got today with Seniors Moon God and Blood God. I will go find you now. The Trial Tower you mentioned earlier has just been built."

As soon as the door was closed, Tianyu couldn't wait to speak.

"Is the Trial Tower completed?"

Fang Chen was stunned for a moment, then he realized that Tianyu was talking about Yuehua Fairy City, but he was more concerned about the Trial Tower.

　This is the first update today, there will be another one to come.
