Chapter 2870

Xiao Hua looked at Fairy Hong Xia. Her snow-white face was stained with blood, making her look rather strange. An indescribable wildness flashed from her dark red eyes!

"Hiss ~" Xiao Hua sucked in a breath of cold air and frowned. He took a closer look and realized that Fairy Hongxia's face was very calm. The expression in her eyes was also very indifferent. It was just that when the blood red color was reflected in those black eyes of hers, it gave him this illusion.

Xiao Hua looked at Zi Ming again and found that he was the same.

"Other than the sacrificial night of Houtu Great God, what other uses does this Moon Tear have?" Xiao Hua asked again.

"Well …" Zi Ming hesitated for a moment and said, "According to the ancient legends, the Moon Tear is the divine eye of the Houtu God. Under the bloody light, it can investigate the right and wrong of Meng Mountain, and all the evil spirits will be wiped out.

Many of the sacrificial ceremonies in Houtu Village will be held during this sacrificial night!

If I were to light up my Soul Falling Lamp at this time, it will be easy for me to obtain the blessing of Houtu Great God. Elder Wu won't even need to do anything! "

"Hmm, after hearing what sister said, I also thought of my Dao Sect's Ghost Festival!"

Fairy Hong Xia interrupted, "On the day of the Ghost Festival, the Nine Underworlds Door will open. Hundreds of ghosts will roam the mountain and all living things will avoid taboo ~"

Zi Ming was a little unhappy when he heard that. However, he looked at Xiao Hua and did not say anything. After a moment, he said, "When Houtu Great God opens her divine eye, it is also the time when Houtu Great God opens her arms. If you can enter the arms of Houtu Great God at this time, you will definitely obtain the mercy of Houtu Great God and preserve the consciousness of these descendants of Meng Mountain. On the day of reincarnation, you will still retain the memories of this life …"

"Oh?"

Xiao Hua was slightly stunned and asked curiously, "Isn't … isn't this similar to my Dao Sect's … Condensed Knowledge Treasure?"

"What is Condensed Knowledge Treasure?" Zi Ming was puzzled again.

After Xiao Hua explained, Zi Ming smiled and said, "Condensed Knowledge Treasure is condensed from cultivation techniques and other things. What the people of Meng Mountain leave behind is all the memories of this life.

Therefore, some old Soul Warriors who feel that they don't have much Life Essence will organize their legacy and wait for the Houtu Great God's sacrificial night so that they can safely and smoothly return to the Houtu Great God's embrace, so that they can retain all their memories and reincarnate into the future! "

"Elder Sister, isn't this Night of Sacrifice something that might not even appear for a hundred years?

Wouldn't that be a waste of time? "Fairy Hong Xia laughed.

"Hehe, you're right. How can it be so easy to find all of them?" Zi Ming also laughed. "According to the Magus Codex, only one in ten thousand people can actually find one!

Of course, as the saying goes, there's no harm in being prepared!

If one of them receives the grace of Houtu, then … "

"Aiyo ~ I understand ~" Just as Zi Ming was explaining, Xiao Hua suddenly came to a realization and couldn't help but cry out!

"Young Master Xiao?" Zi Ming looked at Xiao Hua with some surprise.

Even Fairy Hong Xia was stunned.

It was very rare for Xiao Hua to lose his composure like this!

"Master Hua Qin …" Xiao Hua frowned, somewhat at a loss for words. "He … but, this still isn't right!!"

"Young Master Xiao, what's going on?" When Zi Ming heard that Master Hua Qin was involved, he hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with Master Hua Qin?"

"Alas, Master Qin Qin told me something inexplicable when she repaired the soul-losing lamp, which made me very confused. Now that Ziming mentioned the sacrificial night of Houtu Grand God, I feel …" Although Master Qin Qin didn't tell Xiao Hua about the secret, Xiao Hua still explained it vaguely, "I'm afraid that Master Qin Qin has already known that it's the sacrificial night of Houtu Grand God tonight. Therefore, she has long prepared … to return to the arms of Houtu Grand God tonight!"

"Impossible!!"

Zi Ming immediately said decisively, "The Night of Sacrifice of Houtu doesn't have any pattern. No one can know in advance that the Night of Sacrifice of Houtu is coming!

Moreover, Master Hua Qin has taken the Rejuvenation Pill. Even if she can't recover her youth … she definitely won't return to the arms of Houtu tonight! "

"But …" Xiao Hua naturally felt that this explanation was a bit strange, but if he wanted to think of other reasons, he really couldn't think of any!

"Forget it!" Xiao Hua waved his hand and said, "Let's not talk about it now!"

"No!" Zi Ming suddenly shouted, "Young Master Li, please stop the airboat. I feel that something is wrong!"

"What's wrong?"

Li Zongbao had been driving the airboat all this time. After all, soul cultivation was different from Taoism, so the explanation of the Blood Moon was different. He wasn't close to Zi Ming, so it was better not to talk about it.

"Previously, I asked Master Hua Qin to help me twice, but he didn't agree!"

Zi Ming explained, "However, each time, he would let me stay in the valley for a few days. But today, something is wrong. Although he is a bit tired, he shouldn't have sent us out immediately!

In particular, if he is tired, why did he personally send us to the reception desk? "

Xiao Hua was already puzzled, so when he heard this, he nodded. If he hadn't been worried about Xiao Mao and was in a hurry to find Zi Ming's maidservants, he definitely wouldn't have left the valley so easily!

"Moreover, I felt that the maidservants didn't come to find me because they encountered Hanba …" Zi Ming continued, "But now that I think about it carefully, if they encountered Hanba, they would have sent me a message immediately. Even if they were all killed by Hanba, I would definitely have sensed it …"

"Ah?" Xiao Hua was shocked. After thinking about it carefully, he realized that it was indeed the case.

"Therefore, I have to return to the valley and carefully plan with Master Hua Qin …" Zi Ming said again, "I also need to borrow Master Hua Qin's soul tool to find the location of my maidservants!"

"Senior brother, quickly … quickly return!"

Xiao Hua nodded. He also had a bad feeling in his heart. He didn't know if it was because of Master Hua Qin's strange condition or because of the Blood Moon, but since Master Hua Qin treated him so well, he would definitely repay her generously.

"Okay ~" Li Zongbao obeyed and turned the airship around. Under the Blood Moon, they flew back to where they came from.

Several hundred kilometers in front of the airship, there was also a Blood Moon. In a cave, there were a dozen natives dressed in strange clothing. Their faces were all covered, only revealing two eyes.

In the innermost part of the cave, there were nine people dressed in black. Their entire bodies were covered in black, making it impossible to see their faces. It was impossible to tell if they were Soul Warriors or natives.

The inside of the cave was shrouded in a black mist. Under the Blood Moon's light, there was a hazy Blood Moon that seemed to be on the surface of the water. The Blood Moon's light was faintly discernible. The Blood Moon's light was slowly moving, but it suddenly stopped and then faded away again …

"Ji ji ji ji ~" One of the natives facing the mist hurriedly waved a soul tool that looked like a water bottle in his hand. Then he muttered an incantation and a green light fell down, causing the Blood Moon's light to become clear again.

"Aiyo, why … why did it turn around?" A hoarse voice sounded in shock.

"Reporting … reporting to my lord, this subordinate … doesn't know either!

Maybe … it's because this subordinate's soul technique didn't work during the Sacrificial Night? "The native hurriedly argued," Or maybe she realized something was wrong … "

"It's fine ~" Without waiting for the native to finish his words, the hoarse voice waved his hand and ordered, "No matter where she goes this time … she'll die without a burial place!

If she returns … she'll die even faster!

Let's go … "

As the master who had also concealed himself walked out of the cave, the other natives hurriedly followed him out. Only after the natives left did the nine black-robed people move. Strangely, the nine of them walked together in unison. Although their faces were covered with black cloth, they easily walked out of the cave …

The bloody night … gradually faded away, and the snow-like moonlight slowly came. It was like a late awakening. When the flying boat was still far away from the Soul-refining Cave, Xiao Hua couldn't help but release his Buddhist awareness. When he saw the situation on the reception platform and everything in the valley, he … finally understood the meaning of Master Gou Qin's words and why Master Gou Qin invited him to watch him repair the Soul-losing Lamp. At the same time, he finally understood the painstaking efforts and helplessness of Master Gou Qin to hand over his mantle to him.

"Master Gou Qin … how is it?"

Zi Ming might have soulsense, but she clearly knew that her cultivation wasn't as strong as Xiao Hua's. She was constantly observing Xiao Hua's expression. When she saw Xiao Hua raise an eyebrow, she immediately asked.

"Zi Ming …" Xiao Hua didn't know how to explain, so he just sighed and said, "Sigh, you should see for yourself!"

Xiao Hua's sigh had said everything that needed to be said. Zi Ming felt a chill in her heart, and she bit her lips with her pearly white teeth!

A cold gleam flickered in her eyes.

From afar, one could see that under the moonlight, a small body was lying on the welcoming platform. Around this body were a few corpses. There were no bloodstains near these corpses, but the pale white moonlight that looked like snow reflected off the welcoming platform and shone on these people of Meng Mountains, who had returned to the embrace of Houtu Great God. The bloodstains on their heads, the cracks on their skulls, and the pitch-black holes between the cracks were truly a shocking sight.

Li Zongbao stopped the airship in midair. Before the airship could land, Zi Ming flew out from the airship. With some white mist swirling under her feet, she flew straight to Master Gou Qin's side.

"Master …" Zi Ming let out a sorrowful cry and knelt down.

Xiao Hua sighed in his heart as he followed behind Zi Ming and landed on the ground.

Master Qin Qin's eyes were wide open, as if she was unwilling to close her eyes. However, there was neither disbelief nor astonishment in her eyes. Instead, there was an abnormal calmness in her eyes, as if she had seen through everything and understood everything.

"This …" Looking at Zi Ming's sorrowful face, Xiao Hua glanced around again. The other disciples were not as transcendent as Master Gou Qin. Some of them had ferocious expressions, some were panicking, and some were at a loss, as if they had never expected their own deaths …

PS: Thank you to "Flowing Flowers E" for your tip. I will update for today and tomorrow!

According to the usual practice, I should update at ten today. However, as I didn't write a single word during the Spring Festival, I didn't have many manuscripts left. Therefore, I decided to update at five every day.
