Chapter 454: An Offering to Heaven!
Meanwhile, in Eastern Wasteland County, on the Ten Entrails Tree....
As the morning sun spilled light out everywhere, Xu Qing and the others were moving up the tree. The Captain continued to rip off chunks of his intestines and throw them onto the tree, his face a mixture of determination and madness.
Xu Qing gritted his teeth as he did the same. Although he wasn’t exactly sure why the Captain was doing this, given everything he had experienced so far along his path of cultivation, he had long since come to realize that the Captain’s actions after starting to climb the Ten Entrails Tree conformed to some sort of ritual. What was more, even after reaching their current height, they had not run into the dangers Duke Heaven Zenith had mentioned, those which involved space-time chaos, curses, and the like. It made Xu Qing think about the stories he had heard about the descendants of the Woe-Immortals.
Ten Entrails of the True Immortal contain endless dangers, like pieces of a puzzle. You can’t just charge straight in. You have to know the right method to successfully enter.
Eyes narrowing, he looked at the Captain up ahead.
When we first entered the depths of this place, the Captain must have secretly employed some method to provoke the so-called Shaabii’s Zombie Tribulation. That was probably the first puzzle piece. After the first puzzle piece came the second. That featherless woodpecker. Aalloh’s Nightmare Tribulation. Then we reached the tree, which was when we encountered the third puzzle piece, just moments ago. Beesah’s Eye Tribulation. After the third tribulation, the Captain started ripping out his intestines and putting them into the tree. In that case, I wonder if there’s another tribulation coming.
With such thoughts on his mind, Xu Qing struggled onward, while simultaneously looking at the lands below.
They were already at a height of over 6,000 meters. The wind was very strong, and everything below looked miniature. It was possible to see the edges of the jungle, as well as the multi-colored cities of the thirty-six city-states.
What is this good fortune that the Captain mentioned?
Before he had a chance to put any more thought into the subject, his expression flickered and he shifted his gaze from the lands below to what was up above him on the tree. He wasn’t the only one to react that way. The Captain stopped moving and looked further up the tree.
The dark green bark of the tree was wriggling. Then, only a moment later, the bark rose up in the form of fleshy sprouts.
The fleshy sprouts were each a bit more than a meter in length, and about a third of that in width. They were almost like snakes coming out of the tree. They were the same color as the tree, and their heads were like blooming flowers with five petals, except inside, there was blood-colored flesh and sharp fangs. What was more, viscous fluid dripped out of their opened mouths. They looked extremely ghastly.
Xu Qing’s gaze hardened at the sight of the extraordinary fleshy sprouts. Ning Yan and Qing Qiu both had serious expressions on their faces. Only the Captain looked different. The craziness in his eyes grew stronger as he laughed heartily.
“We went in the right direction. This is the spot! Heaven’s about to open!”
As the words left his mouth, the more than 100,000 fleshy sprouts on the tree all opened their mouths. Swaying in unison, they pointed up toward the dome of heaven and began to tremble. They seemed to be joining forces to cry out to the sky. Except, no sound could be heard. Their voices did not exist on the same auditory spectrum that cultivators could hear.n0ve1bIn
The scene wasn’t just playing out on the tree trunk they were climbing. The same thing was happening on the other nine trunks. It was an extremely bizarre and gruish scene. Most gruish of all was the transformation to the sky that resulted from the howling of the over 1,000,000 fleshy sprouts.
High in the sky, a rift was forming.
Xu Qing felt shaken as he realized that he had seen this before in his vision. The rift in the sky was exactly the same. And he remembered the sensation he had experienced in the vision. It was the feeling that there was some unimaginable entity beyond that rift.
As he struggled to control his breathing, everything in the surroundings started twisting and distorting. Then the Captain shivered from head to toe, as if some invisible force had slammed into him. He staggered back several paces. He wasn’t the only one affected. Ning Yan also shivered, and the evil ghost on Qing Qiu’s scythe let loose a scream.
Then Xu Qing felt that invisible force. He wasn’t sure what it was, but it felt like something had slammed into him. His mind buzzed, and pulses of pain shot through him. In the blink of an eye, he went numb, and he felt like a destructive force was trying to wipe out his life force.
“Don’t need him anymore,” the Captain said, shaking his head.
Ning Yan felt like he had a new lease on life. But then, only a moment later, his heart sank with a very bad feeling.
“Little Junior Brother,” the Captain said, “the good fortune I mentioned earlier is right there.” The Captain pointed at the rift in the sky.
Xu Qing’s eyes glittered brightly.
They were now more than 9,000 meters up the tree, and were still a good distance from the dome of heaven. However, by simply looking up, they could clearly see the rift.
“It’s still not the time for explanations,” the Captain said. “You’ll understand everything soon enough!”
The Captain stepped forward, and his black clothing suddenly became white. It didn’t look like a daoist robe, but rather, some unique godly robe. As the wind blew, he took nine steps forward, then threw both of his hands out and began to dance on the tree trunk.
It was a strange-looking dance, but it was very similar to what Xu Qing had seen in his vision. As Xu Qing watched, the Captain began to sing. Unlike the indistinct voice from the vision, the Captain’s voice was very clear.
“Oh Supreme Heaven Above; Gaze Ye Down Upon Us; Gather All the Ancient Spirits; Summon Tribulation to Please the Ancestors.
“Shaabii’s Corpse Tribulation; Bring Past and Present to Downfall.
“Aalloh’s Nightmare Tribulation; Desolation for a Long Lonely Haul.
“Beesah’s Eye Tribulation; Stand Aside in a Solemn Pall.
“Tohjaah’s Voice Tribulation; a Secret to Bring Death to All.”
Rumbling sounds filled the area, and illusory flames sprang up. Images of countless dancing figures then appeared all over the Ten Entrails Tree. From a distance, it was a grand scene, like hundreds of thousands of Woe-Immortals all dancing to please heaven on high. It was like a joint offering to heaven! Winds screamed, and thunder crashed!
The Captain’s dance unfolded, the rhythm of his movements bizarre. The singing became more impassioned, until he bowed to the sky and spoke in a voice that echoed out in all directions.
“The Tribulation Sacrifice Completes, the Line in Heaven is Opened; Revered Ancient Heavenly Dao, Accept This Offering as I Prostrate!”
The hundreds of thousands of surrounding Woe-Immortal figures all bowed in unison.
RUMBLE!
RUMBLE!!
RUMBLE!!!
A heaven-rending, earth-crushing rumbling sound echoed out, reaching deafening proportions as the rift in the dome of heaven slowly opened!
