CHAPTER 366: CHAPTER 31: DIVINE KING GOURI, THE SACRIFICE BEGINS (PARTS 3 AND 4)_3

During their conversation, Angel Yan waved her hand, and a beam of golden light flew towards Divine King Gouri.

Divine King Gouri was startled and tried to block it, but an indescribably terrifying force suppressed her, rendering her completely immobile.

She watched helplessly as the golden light entered her sea of consciousness.

Just when she thought her end had come, she discovered that the golden light was not harmful; it was merely some information.

After receiving the information, Divine King Gouri understood who the Lord of Hongmeng was and learned of Angel Yan’s origins.

It turned out that Angel Yan was a powerful being from another world, an existence surpassing Sun Gods.

No wonder she felt that Angel Yan was more terrifying than any Sun God she had ever encountered.

Of course, what astonished Divine King Gouri even more was Angel Yan’s true origin.

In her opinion, Angel Yan’s strength had been merely average. But after sacrificing to the Lord of Hongmeng, she had been reborn, becoming an existence that surpassed Sun Gods.

Seeing this, her breathing became rapid.

As one of the Five Great Kings of Ancient Times, she was born with immense strength. However, becoming a Sun God or achieving Cracking the Void was incredibly difficult for her; even the hope was slim.

Having lived from the Primordial Age to the present, her lifespan was also nearly exhausted.

Moreover, even if one became a Sun God or achieved Cracking the Void, their lifespans lasted only a single epoch, far from eternity.

"You want me to be a sacrifice to the Lord of Hongmeng?" Divine King Gouri looked at Angel Yan; with her wisdom, she naturally understood Angel Yan’s intention.

"That’s right." Angel Yan nodded. "With your cultivation level, if you are sacrificed, you will undoubtedly become a Hero surpassing me. I presume Divine King Gouri would not refuse, right?"

"Divine King Gouri?" Sun Star Lord, Warrior Supreme Canglang, and other powerhouses shuddered. Although they knew this woman was terrifying and possessed a significant background, they had never expected her to be Divine King Gouri, one of the Five Great Kings of Ancient Times.

"Such a temptation... it truly is irresistible!" Divine King Gouri gathered her nine azure fox tails and smiled gracefully.

She naturally knew that once sacrificed, she would lose her freedom and be bound to serve the Lord of Hongmeng loyally. However, considering the strength she could gain, these were not concerns to her. Her talent had reached its limit, making it very difficult to break through the realm of Cracking the Void. Even if she did break through to Cracking the Void, she would ultimately still face death. Once dead, what else mattered?

"Li Fuyan Luo, North Star Master, you two can also become sacrifices to My Lord!" Angel Yan looked at the somewhat puzzled Li Fuyan Luo and North Star Master Fish Beiyao beside her, simultaneously conveying the information about the sacrifice to them.

So, by offering oneself as a sacrifice, one could experience a rapid surge in cultivation level under the grace of the Lord of Hongmeng! Sister Yan, who originally possessed at most early-stage Human Immortal strength, became an existence surpassing Sun Gods after her sacrifice... HISS!

As Peak Human Immortals, wouldn’t they be even stronger than Angel Yan if they were sacrificed?

As for the price to be paid, under such immense temptation, it seemed insignificant to them.

After a moment’s contemplation, both agreed.

The rest, after reciting the "Meditation Method," all became followers of the Lord of Hongmeng. They were all masters of their stars, and now, as followers of Hongmeng, they returned to their respective stars to spread the faith of Hongmeng.

Li Fuyan Luo and North Star Master Fish Beiyao also returned to their respective planets to spread the faith and arrange their affairs.

Meanwhile, Angel Yan, accompanied by Divine King Gouri, located the Immortal God King and the other four Divine Kings, collecting the five Immortal Monuments and other treasures.

「Half a month later.」

In the central plains of the Great Qian World, an incredibly majestic and colossal altar had risen from the ground. Countless powerhouses surrounded the altar, their gazes filled with anticipation and fervor.

Hong Yi stood before the altar, feeling the gazes of countless powerful beings around him. His heart surged with emotion, his eyes filled with excitement.

Angel Yan stood beside Hong Yi. After this sacrifice, she too would be able to return to God’s kingdom.

She had certainly not been idle during this past half-month. Under her leadership, Divine King Gouri, Li Fuyan Luo, North Star Master Fish Beiyao, and other celestial powerhouses swept through the nations of the Great Qian World, converting them all into followers of the Lord of Hongmeng.

She had collected basically all the treasures of the Sun God World, except for those in the Origin Land. Even the Eternal Kingdom, held by Dream Master Ji of the Taishang Path, was no exception.

"Present the sacrifices!" Seeing that it was almost time, Hong Yi presided over the sacrifice.

One by one, the sacrifices were carried onto the altar.

"The Once Maitreya Sutra," "Present Tathagata Sutra," and "Future Unborn Sutra"—the scriptural laws of the Great Zen Temple. "The Creation Heaven Scripture" from the Creation Path. "The Taishang Elixir Scripture" from the Taishang Path.

Countless martial arts and Daoist techniques were presented, encompassing everything and including all the Cultivation Techniques of the Sun God World.

Then came the treasures: Five Immortal Monuments, the Creation Boat, the Eternal Kingdom, the Heavenly Emperor Ancestral Dragon Armor, the Taishang Three Swords (Heaven’s Will, Time, Cosmos), the Pan Emperor Three Swords (Life, Years, Void), the Sky Angled God Armor, and the Fallen God Spear.

And finally, the human sacrifices. These were divided into blood sacrifices and living sacrifices.

Individuals for the blood sacrifice: Immortal God King, God of Annihilation, Death God King, Terrifying God King, Vitality God, Yang Pan...

Individuals for the living sacrifice: Divine King Gouri, Su Mu, Zen Silver Gauze, Celestial Immortal, Li Fuyan Luo, Fish Beiyao, Hua Nongyue, Hua Nongying, Essence Temple’s Pope, Xu Feihong, Luoyun...

Half a month ago, I couldn’t have imagined a day like this! Hong Yi gazed at the numerous treasures and powerful individuals on the altar, his heart filled with emotion. All of this is because of the Lord of Hongmeng.

"Let the sacrifice begin!" Focusing his mind, Hong Yi conducted the sacrifice. "Everyone, join me in praying to the great Lord of Hongmeng!"

"To the supreme Lord of Hongmeng..." Countless voices merged into a mighty torrent, soaring into the heavens, echoing across the sky.

As the voices of all the followers faded, the sky began to change.
