A huge formation was placed in the middle of the forest. All the trees around the formation had been cleaned up. The formation runes of this formation were all made of human heads. Among these heads were old people, women, children, and young men. Moreover, it was clear that they hadn't been dead for long. Their blood almost dyed the entire formation red.
However, there were only heads here, the bodies were nowhere to be seen. This made Zhao Hai feel strange. Although the blood on the formation wasn't very fresh, Zhao Hai could infer that the formation had been built only a few days ago. Moreover, the heads must have been placed here after they were killed. In other words, if these people were killed here, then their bodies should be here as well. However, Zhao Hai didn't see any bodies here.
If it was an average person, they might think that the Ghost Mask Army had buried the bodies. But this wasn't the case. Zhao Hai looked around and saw that there were no traces of the earth being turned over. There were also no traces of magic being used. In other words, the bodies weren't buried here, the bodies had disappeared.
If it was someone else, then they might not know where the bodies went. However, Zhao Hai wasn't an ordinary person. He knew a lot of things that the people of the Five Spirit Realms didn't know. Because of this, he was able to discover a lot of things that the people of the Five Spirit Realms couldn't.
Yin Qi, there was a layer of Yin Qi above the formation. This Yin Qi was very condensed, just like the Yin Qi in Zhao Hai's Hell Space. This Yin Qi was very suitable for ghosts to live in.
And from the situation of this formation, it should be a sacrificial formation. It was either to open a spatial passage or to summon something. Because of this, the Yin Qi appeared. And when the Yin Qi appeared, it would devour something. In other words, the corpses of those people were devoured by the Yin Qi.
Zhao Hai had seen this kind of scene a lot, so he didn't have any reaction. What he found strange was what these people wanted to do.
While Zhao Hai was looking at the formation, a person opened his mouth and said, "In two days, the Demon God will appear. When will the other sacrifices be delivered?"
The one who spoke was a man wearing a golden ghost mask. He was wearing a black robe, and his clothes were embroidered with all kinds of ghost masks using golden thread. It looked gorgeous and strange.
When his voice came out of the mask, it was already a little distorted, but one could still hear the aura of a superior, which made one feel fearful.
Behind him, there were a few people wearing silver ghost masks. These people were all Spirit Masters. One of them said, "There won't be any problems with the offerings. However, if we make a move here, the people in the Boundless Mountains will definitely notice. When the time comes and they come to investigate, what should we do?"
The golden-masked man said, "If they come, then they'll come. The Demon God needs sacrifices. The Demon God has been sleeping for a long time. His thirst for blood is very strong. If they come, then they'll become the Demon God's food."
Another silver masked man said, "I don't know what happened to Yalei, the king of the forest. I heard that three of the people we sent to kill him went missing along with him."
The golden-masked man said, "This matter must be investigated thoroughly. Before the Demon God wakes up, this news must not be spread. Send people to find this Yalei. If he's alive, I want to see him. If he's dead, I want to see his corpse."
The silver-masked man nodded. After a while, another person said, "The Demon God's awakening is a big matter for us. We've been collecting blood essence for the Demon God for so many years. However, there are a lot of experts in the Vast Mountains. We still need to be extra careful."
Golden-masked man nodded and said, "I didn't expect Yalei to come here. But that's only because he's a Soul Tree. If he wasn't a Soul Tree, then he wouldn't have been able to come here."
Another silver-masked man said, "Lord, can we establish a country now that the Demon God has appeared? Can we make the Five Spiritual Realms under the Demon God's rule? "
The golden-masked man said, "Of course. In the past, the Demon God was in the Upper Realm and competed with the Spiritual Realms for the position of ruler. In the end, the Demon God lost and fell into a deep sleep. Those people thought that the Demon God was dead, but they didn't know that the Demon Man has been sleeping in our realm. I accidentally learned of the Demon God's existence and have been providing him with blood essence. Now that the Demon God is about to wake up, how can the people of the Five Spiritual Realms be a match for the Demon God? Naturally, the Demon God wants to unify the Five Spiritual Realms."
Although the expressions of the other people couldn't be seen, their eyes were shining with excitement. The golden-masked man looked at them and said, "The Demon God has been in the Five Spiritual Realms for too long. It won't be easy for him to return to the Spiritual Realm. Only by conquering the Five Spiritual Realms and consuming blood essence will he be able to slowly recover his original strength. When that time comes, he can ascend to the Spiritual Realm. We can also follow the Demon God and ascend to the Spiritual Realm."
When the golden-masked man said this, the eyes of these people lit up even more. They wanted to ascend to the Spiritual Realm. However, due to various reasons, they weren't able to do so. Now that they finally saw the hope of ascension, they were naturally happy.
It was precisely because of this reason that they followed the golden-masked man and wanted to awaken the Demon God. However, they weren't necessarily loyal to the Demon God.
Naturally, Zhao Hai also heard these words. He didn't think that they would do something like this. They wanted to awaken a Demon God that could compete with the people of the Five Spirit Realms. This matter was enough to affect the entire Five Spirit Realms. Not only the Five Spirit Realms, even the Lost Soul Empire would be affected. Zhao Hai didn't think that this matter would affect the entire Five Spirit Realms.
Zhao Hai has long regarded the Five Spiritual Realms as his own flesh and blood. How could he allow these people to awaken the Demon God? But now, it seems like the Demon God hasn't woken up yet. Even if he interrupts these people, it would only make the Demon God sleep for a while. Maybe someone else would come and wake the Demon God up in the future. Because of this, Zhao Hai decided to deal with the Demon God after he wakes up.
After listening to the golden-masked man, Zhao Hai understood that the Demon God would be very weak when he wakes up. That would be the best time to eliminate him.
As for why the golden-masked man worked so hard for the Demon God, it was actually very simple. In the past, Zhao Hai had encountered this kind of thing. Demons would use all kinds of means to control people, seduce them, and even brainwash them. This was the most common thing that Demons did.
Zhao Hai had seen this kind of thing a lot, so he found it strange. Now that he roughly understood what these people were planning to do, there was no need for him to stay here. Zhao Hai carefully left.
His return wasn't much faster than when he came. When Zhao Hai returned to the camp, Fatty was already waiting anxiously. Upon seeing Zhao Hai return, Fatty immediately greeted him. Then he looked at Zhao Hai and said, "How was it? Did you find anything? "
Zhao Hai nodded. Then he told Fatty about what he saw. When Fatty heard Zhao Hai, his expression changed. Then he said, "Is that really the case? Who is that Demon God? "
Zhao Hai shook his head and said, "I don't know about this. But from the looks of it, this matter has been going on for a long time. Moreover, I'm afraid that the Demon God will wake up soon."
Fatty was silent for a moment, then he said, "Then what do we do now? Do we leave the Vast Mountains immediately? Then we can spread the news. When the time comes, the Five Spirit Realms will naturally send people to deal with them. "
Zhao Hai shook his head and said, "I'm afraid it won't be that easy. Even if we leave the Boundless Mountains right now, it would take at least a few days. At that time, I'm afraid that the Demon God would have already come out. Once he appears, he would treat everyone who enters the Boundless Mountains as food. I'm afraid that his strength would become very formidable. Moreover, he would have a lot of helpers, many of whom are Spirit Masters. Even if we leave the Boundless Mountains, it would be impossible for us to immediately spread the news. Even if we do, I'm afraid that only a few people would believe us. What should we do when the time comes? Once the Demon God recovers, I'm afraid that the Five Spirit Realms would be finished. "
Fatty understood what Zhao Hai meant. The Demon God could compete with the Spirit Realms. If he recovers, then no one in the Five Spirit Realms would be his opponent. Moreover, he wasn't alone. Ghost Face's influence was very big. If they really establish their own country, then no country in the Five Spirit Realms would be able to stop them.
Fatty looked at Zhao Hai and said, "Then what do you mean? Do you want us to stay and deal with the Demon God? "
Zhao Hai replied, "Right, that's what I meant. We'll stay and say that the Demon God has just awakened and is in a weakened state. Then we'll immediately attack and eliminate the Demon God in one fell swoop."
Fatty looked at Zhao Hai as if he was a madman. When he said that he wanted to stay and deal with the Demon God, he was just joking with Zhao Hai. Who knew that Zhao Hai would actually have this idea. This was too surprising. After some time, Fatty recovered. He looked at Zhao Hai and smiled bitterly, "Old Zhao, are you crazy? Let's not talk about the Demon God's strength. The Demon God has several Spirit Masters around him, they aren't people that we can deal with. The Demon God was weak when he first appeared, but those Spirit Masters weren't weak. They knew that the Demon God was weak, so how could they not protect him? Do we have a chance to attack the Demon God? Even if we have a chance to attack the Demon God, do you really think that we can kill him? Old Zhao, what we need to do now is to leave the Boundless Mountains as soon as possible and spread the news. We don't need to tell people that a Demon God has appeared here, but we can say that a Divine Tomb has been discovered. This will certainly attract experts from all sides to investigate. At that time, those people will naturally see that something is wrong and they will naturally think of a way to deal with the Demon God. If the two of us die here, then the news of the Demon God's appearance won't be able to spread. At that time, the Five Spiritual Realms won't be able to prepare at all, and things will only become more troublesome. Moreover, don't forget that I'm still a Prince. I'll tell this news to Imperial Father so that he can use his name to spread the news. Only then can we deal with the Demon God. How can the two of us deal with the Demon God? "
When Zhao Hai heard Fatty, he couldn't help but stare. Then he nodded and said, "What you said makes sense. It seems like I've been thinking about this matter too simply. Fatty, let's leave the Boundless Mountains immediately and return to the Ice Ocean Continent. You should inform your Imperial Father about this as soon as possible. Then have him announce it to the world in his name."
When Fatty heard Zhao Hai, he couldn't help but feel relieved. He nodded and said, "Alright, then we'll pack up and leave immediately." Fatty was really afraid that Zhao Hai would stay. If that was the case, then it would be troublesome. Zhao Hai took care of him along the way. It can be said that without Zhao Hai, Fatty would've died a long time ago. If Zhao Hai really wanted to stay, then the two of them would've died here.
The reason why Zhao Hai agreed to the fat man's request wasn't because he was afraid of the Demon God or the other Spirit Masters. Instead, it was because Zhao Hai saw this as an opportunity. The Demon God had awakened and wanted to return to the Spirit Realm, so he needed to use people as food. From what the Gold-masked Man said, it seems like the Gold-masked Man wanted to conquer the world. As long as the Gold-masked Man makes a move, the Five Spirit Realms would fall into chaos. At that time, Zhao Hai's invasion of the Five Spirit Realms wouldn't cause too much resentment.
Zhao Hai and the others quickly packed up their things. Then two people and one beast walked out of the Boundless Mountains. While walking, Zhao Hai turned to Fatty and said, "Fatty, after leaving the Boundless Mountains, you should immediately return to the Arctic Continent. I won't follow you back. I'll stay in the Thick Earth Continent for two reasons. First, I want to spread what happened in the Boundless Mountains in the shortest time possible. Second, I want to stay in the Boundless Mountains and monitor the situation here." Fatty nodded and said, "Don't worry.
You should come back with me. Even if the Demon God wakes up, he would still attack the Thick Earth Continent. We'll be safe in the Arctic Continent. Once something happens in the Thick Earth Continent, the Arctic Continent would be able to react. Old Zhao, come with me, it's too dangerous to stay here. "Zhao Hai nodded and said," Don't worry, I'm afraid that the Demon God will attack the Thick Earth Continent first. You should come with me, it's too dangerous. "
