Heroes' Prison-Chapter 1197 - 1136: Elder Bingling’s Sacrifice

"How could the Demon King’s Gate just disappear without a trace?" A high-ranking Half-Beastmen swallowed and spoke anxiously.

"The Demon King’s Gate was secretly built in the cellar under the altar. Only those who mastered the method could enter, and only a few know the method. Who exactly destroyed the Demon King’s Gate? Could it be there’s a traitor among us?" Another Half-Beastmen elder spoke, his expression gloomy as he turned to look at the other high-ranking Half-Beastmen around him, seemingly trying to find the traitor hidden among them.

"Impossible! We’ve known each other for so many years, we’re all familiar with each other’s backgrounds, there can’t be a traitor!" Elder Bingling shook his head, suddenly turned his gaze with resentment towards Huang Yi outside the Holy Mountain Barrier, "I guess the one who destroyed it is nine out of ten the God of Slaughter! He can transform into the form of one of us Half-Beastmen; theoretically, he could sneak into the Holy Mountain without being detected by the Holy Mountain’s barrier!"

"How is that possible?! The entrance to our Holy Mountain has always been heavily guarded, and we haven’t used the Demon King’s Gate many times, always keeping it very secretive. How could he know the sequence of the tiles on the altar, or that there’s a Demon King’s Gate in the cellar? It’s impossible! Absolutely impossible!" A Half-Beastmen Holy Envoy shook his head.

"As long as it’s the God of Slaughter, nothing is impossible!" Elder Bingling said, taking a deep breath, his chest rising and falling violently. "Regardless, we must summon Lord Blood Demon here. Now that the Demon King’s Gate has been destroyed, we can only communicate with him through the Blood Mediation Sacrifice, letting him come to our Half-Beast Holy Land by other means to turn the tides!"

"Blood Mediation Sacrifice!" Upon hearing these four words, everyone’s bodies trembled, and their expressions became quite complex.

This is a bloodline secret technique of the Half-Beastmen, sacrificing a strong Half-Beastmen above the High-Level Heavenly Realm to communicate with the Blood Demon of the same Half-Beastmen bloodline to convey the message.

These people here are essentially all high-level Half-Beastmen strongmen, all potential sacrificial candidates.

"Let me perform the Blood Mediation Sacrifice! After all, staying here means dying in battle, I might as well use my life for a greater purpose!" Elder Bingling spoke proactively. "I will call Lord Blood Demon over, and it can be considered as avenging Elder Sarantu!"

"This! Isn’t this too hasty?"

"Shall we consider other options?"

The surrounding high-ranking Half-Beastmen immediately started persuading.

"There’s no other way! This is the only option! Everyone, you must preserve the bloodline of our Half-Beastmen clan! Continue our legacy; after surviving this catastrophe, we will rise again! This world will pay the price for today’s calamity!" Elder Bingling said, resolutely turning to look around, as if wanting to engrave the scene here into his mind forever, not wanting to forget even in death when he becomes a soul.

Suddenly, his body rose abruptly, bleeding from the seven orifices, the thick blood dyeing him into a blood person. He stared with those bleeding eyes, gazing stubbornly at the void, spraying a mouthful of fresh blood, hoarsely saying: "Blood Mediation Sacrifice, communicating heaven and earth! Lord Blood Demon, our Half-Beastmen clan is at the moment of life and death, the Demon King’s Gate has been destroyed, please come quickly to the Half-Beast Holy Land to save us!"

As the words fell, his body burst with a "boom" into a cloud of blood mist, which quickly burrowed into the void and disappeared completely.

...

In the distant First World, within a mysterious sea region.

A Naga Demigod Elder was standing feebly in the void, his body covered in blood, the snake scales on his body scattered about, revealing sinister wounds dripping blood continually, dyeing the sea red.

He had lost any semblance of a demigod’s demeanor, appearing like an ordinary person on the verge of death at any moment.

Opposite him, not far away, stood a Half-Beastman, this Half-Beastman had a cloak like a tumultuous Blood Sea behind him, billowing back, accentuating his peerlessly elegant posture.

This person was none other than the Ninth Great Demon King—Blood Demon!

He also had some wounds on his body, but his aura was still powerful, that towering presence threatened the heavens and earth, deterring anyone from acting rashly.

"Blood Demon! I didn’t expect you to gain such strong combat power in such a short time since your ascent to Demon King. I admit defeat here today. But don’t but think our Naga clan can be trampled upon at will, our several Ancestral Elders of the Illusory Gods have emerged, brace yourself for their overflowing wrath!" The Naga Demigod, stared venomously at Blood Demon, speaking the universal cosmic language.

"So they emerged, only to add a few more Void God corpses!" Blood Demon sneered, his cloak drawing a blood shadow, and he vanished on the spot.

"Pfft!" The next moment, a bloody figure suddenly appeared behind the Naga Demigod!

A flash of blood light, and the Naga Demigod’s head departed from his neck, held by Blood Demon.

The headless Demigod snake corpse fell powerlessly, crashing into the seawater below like a meteor, raising towering waves!

Blood Demon looked at the headless snake corpse with a carefree smile, his eyes full of pride.

Before obtaining the Demon King’s Power, he simply did not have the ability to slay demigod level strongmen. But after obtaining the Finished Divine Artifact [Bloodstained Elegance], crowned by the King of Hell, granted with the Demon King’s Power, and ascending as the Ninth Great Demon King, his power could now slay demigods!

At this moment, suddenly, a bloody shadow appeared in the void; it was Elder Bingling who performed the Blood Mediation Sacrifice from The Second World’s Half-Beast Holy Land.

This shadow stared anxiously at Blood Demon, saying hoarsely: "Lord Blood Demon, our Half-Beastmen clan is at the moment of life and death, the Demon King’s Gate has been destroyed, please come quickly to the Half-Beast Holy Land to save us!"

Blood Demon was startled, quickly attempting to communicate with that Demon King’s Gate in the Holy Mountain cellar to teleport instantly.

But it was useless, he could no longer perceive that Demon King’s Gate, indeed, it had been destroyed!

"God of Slaughter, I didn’t expect you to have some skill, forcing the Half-Beast Holy Land to this extent! If so, then I’ll go over and play with you, it’s time to settle our score!" A cruel smile appeared at the corner of Blood Demon’s mouth, crushing the Naga Demigod’s head in his hand.

Then, his body flickered, the blood cloak behind him transformed into a blood shadow, flying towards the horizon’s end, disappearing into the depths of the clouds in the blink of an eye.
