Fat Cattle and Egg Yolk were not begging the Elder Ancestor to speak, they were simply pouring out their grievances! Anyway, they had nothing to lose, the Elder Ancestor might not be able to hear them!
They had two days' time, they had to make the most of it! Otherwise, if the high-level immemorial beasts below became impatient, they would have to suffer. Therefore, it was best to go through the rough procedures within a day.
Although it was a sloppy ceremony, there was one thing that could not be omitted, and that was the final operation of opening the space, offering sacrifices, and receiving guidance.
Human sacrifices were just for show. No god would take a fancy to those so-called sacrifices. After the ceremony was over, they would be sent back to the kitchen for the little people below to have a good meal. However, the sacrifices of the ancient beasts were real. They were born with the ability to teleport, and they relied on the guidance of their bloodline in the unseen world.
If it was another occasion, the possibility of the sacrifices being sent to the Elder Ancestor was very high. However, the situation in the Unspeakable Place now, and whether the sacrifices could be sent safely was very unclear.
This was a two-way passage. The little ones below would send their offerings up, and the Elder Ancestor above would pass down instructions through some method. It could be a sentence, or it could be something, there was no fixed number.
Fat Cattle and Egg Yolk worked together and used their supernatural powers to open the space passage. The passage was a little unstable, it was limited by the realm. If it was completely stable and could enter and leave freely, it had to be at the level of a half-immortal. However, it did not matter to them, it was not a living sacrifice anyway, it was just a pile of offal …
The duration of this passage was not determined by one's strength, but by one's status. For example, the Feiyi, Chao Zhi, Fu Zhu, Fei Lian, Cheng Huang, and the rest of the lower status would be shorter; the Ba Serpent, Jiao Duan, Bi An, Nine Infants, and the Xiangliu Clan, these noble clans would be as long as possible …
The reason was simple, the stronger one was, the higher his status in the Upper Realm. The information he received would be more accurate, so of course, he had to put in a lot of effort.
The Space Passage was established, and the inside was flickering, like a small eye that was constantly blinking. The two beasts seized the time and threw a large pile of broken bits and pieces into the passage. This process was within their plan, and they did not expect any response. It was fine as long as the procedure could be completed smoothly without any trouble.
After throwing out the offerings, the two of them quickly began to pray. Because they knew that there would be no response, they spoke quickly and vaguely. After reciting a long paragraph of long-winded sacrificial rites, they prepared to call it a day.
At this moment, the blinking spatial passageway suddenly stabilized. It was no longer blinking. Instead, it looked like it had widened its eyes. Moreover, there was an indescribable radiance emitting from it!
This was an omen from the imperial edict! The thousands of ancient beasts present were no stranger to this. This was what they had been looking forward to all along!
Fat Cow and Egg Yolk were dumbfounded. They were shocked by this unexpected change. They even forgot to use their demonic powers to maintain the passageway. However, the passageway didn't seem to need their support. It was completely out of their control!
"Di, Di, Uncle Di is going to have news …" Fat Cow was inexplicably excited. No matter what news it was, other ancient beasts couldn't ask for it. However, the two of them could. This was an honor!
However, would the other ancient beasts be even more jealous and oppressed?
The two beasts' worries weren't groundless. There were actual precedents! Just as they were still hesitating and the other ancient beasts were shocked, a Nine-Headed Snakelet True Lord leaped onto the altar and shouted.
"There's something strange here! Why didn't the Great Sages issue the edict, but you two despicable races are different? From what I can see, it's you guys who opened the wrong passage and lured that filthy thing out! After I seal it, I'll settle the score with the two of you. I'll punish you for disrespecting your ancestors and offering sacrifices in an unruly manner! "
Before the Nine-Headed Snakelet finished speaking, he didn't give them any time to explain. His nine snake heads shook and roared silently at the eye. This was the Nine-Headed Snakelet Tribe's unique method of disrupting the passageway. It was called Nine-Split Void.
The divine power was very sharp. The eye started to blink again. This was a sign of instability. Some of the surrounding ancient beasts were indifferent, while some were dissatisfied! Those who were indifferent were the upper-level immemorial beasts, but most of them were dissatisfied. They were subordinates who did not have a high status. They were not on good terms with the Feiyi Cheng Huang, but purely wanted to know what news the Upper Realm had sent.
Personal grudges were personal grudges. Big matters were big matters. This concerned the future of the entire ancient beast race. The actions of these upper-level ancient beasts weren't convincing at all!
However, the blinking eye didn't seem to be convinced. Although the blinking became more intense, the brilliance became brighter. It was as if it was sending flirtatious glances! Flirtatious glances!
The Nine-Headed Snakelet was about to increase its strength. However, it didn't expect the eye to overflow with substance! The eye emitted light … No, it was sword light!
Sword light that covered the sky and earth appeared in the blink of an eye!
It was already impossible to count how many rays of light there were! Because they were too dense and too bright!
How could the Nine-Headed Snakelet, who was so close, predict such a change? There was no space or leeway to dodge at all. In an instant, it was pierced by millions of flying swords!
The ancient beasts cultivated their own system. Their bodies were incomparably strong compared to humans, and their lifespans were easily hundreds of thousands of years. It was precisely because of this innate advantage that they didn't need to sever three lives like human Yang Gods when they reached the late stage of True Monarch.
A casual and unguarded action had caused countless lives to be buried here.
All the ancient great monarchs stood up. If they died in another way, they would have countless divine powers to attack the blinking eye. However, these were flying swords!
More than ten thousand years ago, the same flying swords had caused almost half of the five most noble races of the ancient era to be wiped out! Even now, they still hadn't recovered! And this was under the situation where they immediately lowered their heads and admitted defeat!
Now … this, this happened again?
Because of their endless lifespan, these ancient beasts' strength increased very slowly! Ten thousand years ago, they were basically True Monarchs. Ten thousand years later, they would still be True Monarchs! What didn't change wasn't only their realm cultivation, but also their past memories! This was something they couldn't forget for the rest of their lives!
What was vexing was that the heavens seemed to be afraid they wouldn't remember it well, so they helped them remember it again to deepen their impressions?
Therefore, even if the most noble Nine-Headed Snakelet clan leader was killed, because they remembered the shame and fear of the past, no ancient beast dared to act impulsively. This was because the significance of the sword light was too frightening! This was because human cultivators had spread a rumor that the master of the sword stele was the founder of the universe's new era! And also the gravedigger of the old era!
Although they didn't quite believe such an exaggeration and could still suppress the two ancient bugs like before, when the sword light truly appeared before their eyes, fear far surpassed their instincts!
Even if it wasn't that person, that person's Dao legacy had once left them with unforgettable memories, and not just one!
Damn it, it was a nest!
