Chapter 350

The naked ear could not hear the sound, and the naked eye could not glimpse the waves.

Only a heaven-shaking roar emerged from his consciousness, like the clamor of drums and trumpets; a wild tide of blood erupted from the perception of his soul out of thin air, rising from the ground and swallowing everything!

"You moth—"

The Colonel, who had just torn through the cabin and shot into the sky, only felt as if a bomb had exploded right against his face—no, right inside his own skull!

Before he could even curse, his vision went black, and he fell again.

Too much, too much.

It's already full!

Can't eat anymore...

Bitter hatred, despair, torment, hardship, jealousy, desire, hunger, madness—even if the wilderness is barren and has nothing, the poison of the human heart is like weeds and chives, endless to remove, impossible to cut off, and inexhaustible!

In the eyes of an artisan like Ji Jue who is frugal and loves "making people," it is simply a fertile land!

In just a few months, in the eight workshops of the underground factory, while producing infinite creations day and night, it also provided Ji Jue with a continuous stream of Poisoned Heart evil thoughts.

The killing intent, despair, jealousy, and hatred emitted from those spiritual qualities were collected bit by bit by Ji Jue, repeatedly purified, carefully refined, and then injected into the Ring of Poisoned Heart for catalysis.

It's just that I don't know if it was squeezed too hard, so much so that the Niu Ma who were "re-made" on the assembly line now have nothing left.

Every day they are like walking corpses, with hollow expressions and dazed eyes, working numbly, and even in their dreams they follow the broadcast, shouting "I am guilty," "I harm the world," "I have failed my parents," "I have failed the common people"... it can be considered a different kind of successful reform, with pleasing progress! After grinding a bit more, they can return to society!

And by now, the originally scarlet gemstone on Ji Jue's ring had, at some unknown time, turned into a colorful pitch-black, possessing the essence of the Unending and the Abyss!

Under the certification and blessing of the Great Sin, it was already an out-and-out Sin-Tainted creation.

It's just a pity that the foundation of Sin-Tainted Alchemy cannot be leaked; otherwise, just based on the technology inside, writing a paper could earn another Golden Ribbon!

But it doesn't matter; Master Ji is indifferent to fame and wealth and is broad-minded, so of course, he doesn't care about mere empty names, nor does he care about... well, someone cursing him.

So, Ji Jue extended his hand and pointed again!

In mid-air, the Colonel, who hadn't had time to fall yet, shook again—the mighty torrent of the blood-sea tide and the wailing of ten thousand souls erupted again!

Boom!!!

Poisoned Heart evil thoughts surged like a tide, roaring and spreading.

The sound of breaking was endless; inside the cabin, those Heaven-Chosen who had just struggled to climb up hadn't even had time to lift their heads before they were greeted by the Great Sin, and amidst the violent pouring of the torrent, blood seeped from their facial features on the spot, and their souls shattered.

It was just the aftermath.

Under the precise pointing and guidance of Isis's Hand, seventy percent of the impact was taken by the Colonel.

It was as if a Heart Pivot Heaven-Chosen had detonated himself right in his face; the dirty-bomb version of the spiritual quality impact, mixed with Great Sin pollution and many fierce ingredients, surged back and forth under the guidance of mercury, emerging repeatedly.

After pondering for a few months, Ji Jue had already upgraded his application method, tailoring a whole set of silky little combos for the structure of the Ring of Poisoned Heart!

Across such a long distance, one could still feel bursts of violent spiritual quality fluctuations erupting continuously, eerily converging, and then erupting again.

The spreading waves didn't have time to dissipate before they were absorbed by the mercury scattered in all directions; under the blockade of solid alchemy, they converged again, flowed, returned to the Ring of Poisoned Heart along the thousands of mercury threads, and after being integrated again, sprayed out once more!

Although there was much damage and it was hard to sustain, the eruption that could originally only be maintained once was now like a tide, surging back and forth. In just a snap of the fingers, visible cracks appeared rapidly on the ring's band; spiritual quality overload and physical wear and tear meant it was already overwhelmed.

But it doesn't matter; as long as the core blessing is still intact, with the effect of Fluid Alchemy, it can be repaired and maintained at any time.

A little wear and tear is not worth mentioning.

"..."

Isis, who had been silently assisting throughout the whole process, couldn't take it anymore: "I have to say, this move of yours is a bit disgusting."

The whole cycle of eruption and recovery was simply like vomiting in someone's face, catching it, eating it, and then vomiting it again... especially when Ji Jue was in a hot state and started improvising, using Non-Aggression to guide and control those polluted spiritual qualities, mixed with the impact of dissociation—the level of depravity had reached a new high!

"How is it disgusting? Look at how happily he's screaming!"

After splashing feces in his face and stirring it up, Ji Jue felt refreshed, while the Colonel, who had fallen and was hanging on the cabin wall twitching, already had "one head, two sizes."

Well, it was indeed two sizes, maybe two and a half; in just a few seconds, by the time Ji Jue had completely squandered the accumulation in the Ring of Poisoned Heart, he had become a literal big-headed doll.

Viscous blood seeped from between his mouth and nose, along with saliva.

His mouth was crooked, his eyes were slanted, and his intracranial pressure was off the charts.

On his bloated, purple face, pitch-black blood vessels bulged; he had expanded to the limit, as if a light poke would make him burst like a balloon.

Yet, he still wasn't dead!

After taking several waves of the Ring of Poisoned Heart's impact head-on, his blessing was dim and unstable, and his soul and matrix were almost completely collapsed, yet his ferocity remained unchanged.

The big head, bloated like a balloon, lifted with difficulty, staring fixedly at Ji Jue in the distance.

On the eyeballs that were almost bulging out of their sockets, there was nothing but bloodshot eyes and killing intent. Even more insane!

Ji Jue couldn't help but frown... the Great Crowd is truly hard to kill!

The Wilderness Ruins are hard to kill because their armor is too thick, while this bunch of dog-bitch things just heals too fast! And their tricks of fighting while feeding, using opponents and friendly forces as blood bags, are too numerous to count.

Strike while the iron is hot; Ji Jue wasn't kind enough to give a magical girl time to transform. He flicked his fingers, and immediately a loud noise erupted from the Prosperity.

The crystal-clear Sin-Tainted bullets had already broken through the air!

But even after losing consciousness, the Colonel instinctively wriggled his body, dodging at the last second every time, and even if he couldn't dodge, he would lift his limbs, sacrificing a part of his flesh to block the bullets.

It was as if he were cheating...

Damn it, preempting the enemy!

You Great Crowd guys don't know how to play without these few blessings, right!

And amidst the wretched twitching and dodging, the Colonel's right hand and left leg had already been completely blown apart by bullets; yet, the instinctive murmurs, like dream talk, never stopped, opening and closing with difficulty.

"With, with my... pain... offer... sacrifice..." that dying body, no different from a walking corpse, whispered hollowly: "Offer... to the Lord of... Scars!"

Boom!!!

Blood light gushed, surging and exploding, roaring and spreading, instantly swallowing him completely.

Amidst the scarlet blood light like flames, curved horns grew from his skull, spitting sparks, and layers of pitch-black scales emerged, rolling from his flesh.

!

Rebirth form, manifested!

The Colonel, who was just on his last breath, was revived with full health and full mana!

Feeling the eerie aura flowing within that blood light and demon-like body, Ji Jue's brow couldn't help but furrow.

This is troublesome; he's someone who has bowed to a big brother...

【Inheritance Burnt Offering】!

The way of conquest is only sacrifice and war.

Such an essence is the same whether it is the Great Crowd, the Slaughterer, the Supreme Good, or the Great Sin—sacrifice has always been one with struggle; without sacrifice and cost, there is no result and victory!

This is the inheritance and essence unique to the Great Crowd's path, and it is also the most troublesome part of high-level Great Crowd Heaven-Chosen: the Great Crowd is one, they are indistinguishable from each other, and they can call for help anytime, anywhere!

Through secret inheritance and rituals, Great Crowd Heaven-Chosen can communicate with the spirituality and power left by predecessors in the Supreme Good, thereby anchoring a specific "Sacrificial Lord."

Simply put, it's acknowledging a big brother or worshiping a godfather.

Drifting for half a life, never meeting a wise master; if you, Duke, do not abandon me, I will worship you as my foster father... From now on, I will follow my foster father, go through fire and water, and never refuse...

After anchoring the Sacrificial Lord, through sacrifice and offering, they cause the Heavenly Human inheritance that returned to the Supreme Good to descend with blessings and power again amidst resonance!

The art of blood sacrifice originated from this.

In the eyes of this bunch of dog things, simply everything can be sacrificed: from small things like clipped fingernails and mud rubbed off from picking feet, to big things like beloved friends, brothers, and even the lives and souls of enemies...

As for the cost and effect, it just depends on how ruthless the big brother they worship is and how much they give.

Just like Old Tang, who had also been a Great Crowd chosen one, his ability naturally matched perfectly with "Inheritance Burnt Offering," carrying his ancestors with him; he could call for help for money, and if the money wasn't enough, he could even give a discount... he was a true "godfather-level escort," "biological son-level treatment."

Although the person was a bit lacking, the gold content of this ability was unquestionable!

If this were spread out, I don't know how many Great Crowd members would be envious to the point of peeing blood.

Ji Jue had no clue where the "Lord of Scars" in the Colonel's mouth came from—the chaotic situation and intricate inheritance among the Qiandao, killing each other for hundreds of years, with so many dead, who knows which dead Great Crowd Heavenly Human it was, or maybe it was even a Great Sin of the Slaughterer; otherwise, how could this dog thing's resistance to Sin-Tainted be so high?!

Among the twelve Supreme Goods, only you Great Crowd are entangled with the Great Sin, making it hard to distinguish between you and me.

Now, Ji Jue could see with his heels that that person was not someone easy to deal with: after sacrificing all his wounds and scars, the aura of the Colonel, who had revived with full health, dropped by a large chunk visibly, almost falling out of the Rebirth Rank; he couldn't even maintain his Rebirth form!

Under the insight of the Containing Image Mirror, all changes were fully manifested—he had lost one blessing!

Dropped a level out of thin air?!

The Sacrificial Lord collected the sacrifice and, at the same time, sent down a trial.

Unless he exterminated the enemy before him and used their spirit, soul, and life to perform another sacrifice to wash away the shame, there was absolutely no possibility of the blessing being returned!

The moment he realized the cost, the Colonel flew into a rage again—having fought to the death among the Qiandao for so many years, he had never suffered such heavy injuries, nor had he ever paid such a huge price.

If he wanted to recoup his losses, there was absolutely no way back.

At this very moment, there was only one choice left: you die or I die!
