"You … You're a demoness! Cannibalism is worse than pigs and dogs! "
Li Wuji blew his beard and glared angrily, standing on the moral high ground.
"Okay! Let's wait and see! "
Jiang Tian said lightly.
The customs and culture of burial were different for every race, so they should be respected. There was no difference between them.
The Han people advocated burial. The Tibetan area practiced sky burial and pagoda burial. Sky burial was to let vultures eat the corpses. India liked cremation, and it was done in the open. Thailand liked to pour the ashes of the dead into the river.
It was said that there were some primitive tribes in the jungles of Africa who practiced cannibalism. They ate the flesh of their ancestors and shared it. It was believed that the ancestors' souls could accompany and protect them. It was the deepest memory of their ancestors.
If you mocked others for their barbarism and backwardness, others would think that you were rebellious. In the end, it was just a custom.
Moral criticism was meaningless, but from the perspective of pros and cons, cannibalism was more harmful than beneficial.
In the 1950s, the "Kuru disease" broke out in a Fulner tribe in Papua New Guinea. Most of the victims were women and children who handled the corpses and ate the brains.
The patients' cerebellum was out of balance, and the whole body was paralyzed. They laughed stiffly and eventually died of hunger and malnutrition because they couldn't swallow.
Kuru disease could not be cured until the local government strictly prohibited cannibalism, and the epidemic situation improved.
The disease caused by cannibalism was both an infectious and hereditary disease. It was more serious than inbreeding.
Some scholars thought that the outbreaks of SARS (monkey brain), mad cow disease, bird flu, and other infectious diseases in this century could be explained from this perspective.
However, the Changshen Sect used flesh and blood altars to absorb the energy of the dead. It was not only a funeral ceremony, but also a method to pass on cultivation techniques.
It could be said that the Changshen Sect's master created this method and combined it with the Three Laws of Changshen. It looked perfect.
The Three Laws of Changshen could simulate real battles and improve the cultivation of disciples to the limit. However, the casualty rate was too high. No major sect could withstand this kind of internal friction.
However, the flesh and blood altars and the Blood Body Exchanging Mystic Art were like Buddhism's enlightenment. They solved the problem of serious casualties to a certain extent.
As long as they continued to absorb the disciples at the bottom, they would form a pyramid-shaped advancement level and achieve the ultimate sublimation of the strongest. In theory, they could even increase their cultivation without limit!
But in fact, such techniques were very common in the universe. Most of them were only practiced by primitive races. They were crude and had many drawbacks.
Normally, even if a Devourer could refine Blood Essence, they would not be able to completely subdue and refine the resentment, obsession, and hatred of the dead.
These were all living souls!
If this went on for a long time, his divine sense would be disturbed, and he would definitely go berserk, falling into the demonic path. A drop in his cultivation would be considered light, but it could even be destroyed in an instant, and he would perish!
Jiang Tian frowned and asked, "By the way, we saw tens of thousands of living people in the camp when we went up the mountain. Are they also blood food?"
"That's right!"
Fairy Luo Mei nodded. An unnatural look flashed across her face as she said,
"The Changshen Sect believes that the fastest way to improve oneself is in a battle. It is also the best time to absorb and refine the energy!
"Therefore, in the process of the Elders challenging the Sect Leader, they will devour living blood to nourish themselves to the extreme!"
"Living blood food is compared to dead blood food. Living blood food is believed to be the fastest way to improve one's cultivation! "
"Did you catch these blood food? Are there any Yan Huang tribesmen among them? "Tang Linglong asked with a murderous look in her eyes.
"No! They are all willing. They are the most devout and fanatical followers of the Changshen Sect! "
Fairy Luo Mei explained.
"There are no Yan Huang tribesmen among them. The Yan Huang tribesmen are yellow grains. They are not qualified to be blood food!"
"Everyone says that the Changshen Sect Leader has a chance to reach the Nascent Soul Realm through this large-scale devouring of living blood food...."
"Enough!"
Tang Linglong only felt her head buzzing, and her mind was greatly shaken.
This was too cruel. It was inhumane.
"Evil! Too evil! "
Ye Keren and Lady Wu could not take it anymore.
This was too scary. Devouring living people was disgusting and hair-raising.
"Sigh, fortunately! There are no Yan Huang tribesmen among them. Most of them are Ancient Tianzhu. The Changshen Sect Leader and many elders probably think that the flesh of the Yan Huang tribesmen is not enough for them! "
At this time, Jiang Tian also frowned. His eyes were cold and murderous.
At this time, Jiang Tian understood completely.
The Changshen Sect's martial arts had three levels. Possession was the most basic. There was also the Immortality Arts to gather and graft strong body parts. The most advanced was undoubtedly the Blood Bath Body Exchanging Mystic Art.
Only the Sect Leader, Elders, and some hall masters were qualified to cultivate it.
Jiang Tian had lived two lives and had killed many people. He had seen and experienced all kinds of inhumane and bloody things.
However, he didn't like consuming the life essence and blood of living people as fodder to raise his cultivation base.
"Winners, please come up to the stage and devour the blood food! Don't mix up your food and fight again! "
At this time, the white-bearded Grand Elder smiled and waved his hand casually.
Instantly, altars made of white bones flew to the square. There were hundreds of them, and they were scattered all over the place.
"Haha, I killed a hall master. His flesh and soul are very strong. It will definitely help me reach the next level!"
"Feast! The triennial Feast of Flesh and Blood has finally begun! Finally, I can enjoy their flesh and blood! "
Below the stage, there were excited cheers. The winners were like hungry ghosts, salivating and drooling as they flew to their own altars.
Fairy Luo Mei also landed on an altar.
"Sigh, Luo Sanbao killed an elite disciple this time. I'm afraid he will break through to the early Jindan Realm! I can't catch up with him anymore! "
"Sigh, if I want to enjoy this feast, I have to wait another three years! I must cultivate hard. After three years, I must kill a few experts. There will be positions, resources, and blood food to eat! "
"Sigh, I am too far behind! Many fellow cultivators have already left me far behind. What should I do? "
The cultivators who did not participate in the battle showed deep envy, respect, yearning, and regret. They had mixed feelings.
Some hated themselves for not having the courage to do so. They could not help but feel regretful.
Some clenched their fists and secretly made up their minds. Their eyes were cold as they looked for a suitable opponent for the next battle.
Some were extremely anxious, discouraged, and sighed. There were too many experts this time, and they felt the deep gap between them.
"Everyone, please enjoy the fruits of your victory! Please enjoy the delicious flesh and blood! Let's strengthen your soul and body! "
Under the expectant gazes of the crowd, the Sect Master of the Changshen Sect, Ming Ruyi, stood up and opened her arms, shouting loudly.
A gorgeous smile appeared on her snow-white face. She was so charming that it made one's heart itch and become restless. It was also a little creepy.
Suddenly.
The style of the music in the square changed.
The zither and the zither played in harmony, and the music and song were lively. The rhythm was cheerful, bright, exciting, high-spirited, and joyous as if it was the new year.
There were also singers and dancers dancing in the air. Their long sleeves waved and their movements were graceful. Their steps were agile, they twisted their waists and buttocks, their stomachs shook, and they spun and jumped. They were full of vitality and even sexy.
Around the dancers and singers, flowers bloomed and bloomed, adding to the joyful atmosphere and diluting the terrifying and bloody aura.
At this moment, the altars made of white bones shone brightly, forming many light shields that enveloped the victors sitting on them.
The victors seemed to be possessed by gods. There were runes circulating on the surface of their bodies and they were extremely mysterious. At the same time, a surging suction force like a black hole was formed, absorbing the flesh, essence, energy, and even the Divine Soul of the corpses.
The Reincarnation Sutra could release the souls of the dead. It could destroy the consciousness to the greatest extent and purify it into pure mental energy to nourish and strengthen the Divine Soul of the victors.
The corpses, the limbs and blood wriggled slightly under the power of the flesh altars. Their skin withered at a visible speed and their flesh dried up, quickly turning into dried corpses.
Streams of pure Blood Essence and Vital Qi poured into their bodies, and the auras of the victors, including Fairy Luo Mei, rose steadily. They were like dragons rising into the sky, and their cultivation levels rose in a short period of time, as if there was no end to it.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Thunder-Like sounds came from their bodies. They broke through many obstacles and restrictions and their cultivation rose sharply.
Their auras became longer, their minds became more tenacious, their bodies became stronger, their faces glowed and their vitality surged. There were even people who jumped several levels, from the Foundation Establishment Level to the third level of the Golden Core Level!
"Awesome! It's too awesome! I broke through three levels in a row! A thousand miles in a day! It's comparable to a hundred years of hard work! "
Someone laughed loudly and beat his chest with his fists. He was so happy that tears flowed down his face.
"Haha! I broke through, I finally broke through! The power of flesh and blood is strong! My Changsheng Sect is strong! Immortality! I want immortality! "
Some people were crying tears of joy, shouting to the heavens and earth, as if they had gone mad.
"Didn't I devour all the flesh and blood? Why did I only break through one level! "
There was a crazy look in the eyes of an expert. He was angry and dissatisfied.
His Essence Qi burst out and rolled up the corpses under the altar. He opened his mouth and chewed on the bones of the dried corpses. There were crunching sounds, cracking sounds, chewing sounds.
For a moment.
The huge square was in chaos. It was as if a group of demons were dancing. It looked creepy and cold.
Even if it was for cultivation, even if they still had some rationality left, even if it was their custom, they were still eating the corpses of their own kind.
Ye Keren's stomach turned sour as he vomited. On his pale face, cold sweat rolled down like a curtain of rain.
Tang Linglong gritted her teeth and said viciously, "They all deserve to die! A group of evil people. I'll kill them all later and leave no one alive! "
