Chapter 1443: The secret of the Chief Priest, the cruel truth, sacrificing to the Gate of Immortality

~8 min read 1,510 words

"Five Chief Priest seats..."

Within Jun Xiaoyao muttered to himself.

The Chief Priests were all existences so mysterious and powerful that they were unimaginable.

One was terrifying enough to shake the entire Nine Heavens Immortal Domain.

As a result, there were five of them!

He thought of the Chief Priest Token he got from signing in, which happened to have the number five on it.

Didn't that mean Within Jun Xiaoyao was the Fifth Chief Priest?

Speaking of this, Kunshan looked at Within Jun Xiaoyao and smiled faintly, "Actually, strictly speaking, you and the Chief Priest might also have a trace of karma involved."

"Me, why?"

Within Jun Xiaoyao's expression was calm.

But his heart was slightly shaken.

Could it be that this Kunshan had mastered mind-reading, could see through people's hearts, and knew he possessed the Chief Priest Token?

Who knew, Kunshan said, "The outside world rumors that Young Friend is the successor of the Wuchong Great Emperor, right?"

Within Jun Xiaoyao nodded.

Kunshan sighed and smiled, "You should know that the Wuchong Great Emperor once severely injured and put to sleep a supreme taboo of the Reincarnation Sea."

"And that supreme taboo of the Reincarnation Sea was a Chief Priest."

Hearing this, Within Jun Xiaoyao suddenly realized and understood everything.

That supreme taboo of the Reincarnation Sea must be the Fifth Chief Priest.

And the Wuchong Great Emperor severely injured the Fifth Chief Priest of the Reincarnation Sea, causing him to sleep.

Then his identity as Chief Priest was stripped away.

And the reason why Within Jun Xiaoyao signed in for the Chief Priest Token, besides coincidence,

was perhaps because of his identity as the successor of the Wuchong Great Emperor.

Wuchong severely injured the Fifth Chief Priest, so the Fifth Chief Priest Token fell into the hands of his successor.

This logic was flawless!

"It can be said that the Wuchong Great Emperor was truly powerful to the peak of ancient and modern times; those Immortal Domain Great Emperors who pacified turmoil in the past might not have all fought against the Chief Priest."

"After all, not every Chief Priest will appear in every turmoil."

"Sometimes only one might appear, sometimes two; there are very few times when three or four Chief Priests appear at the same time," Kunshan said.

"Why is that?" Within Jun Xiaoyao was confused.

Kunshan looked at Within Jun Xiaoyao deeply and said, "Because there are not enough Immortal Dao substances to go around."

"If there are not enough Immortal Dao substances, then the connection between the Dark Turmoil and the Gate of Immortality, could it be..."

Within Jun Xiaoyao felt as if he had been enlightened, and his thinking became clear instantly.

"That's right, you might be curious about what the identity of the Chief Priest actually brings and what special significance it has."

"As long as one can obtain the identity of the Chief Priest, one controls a special power of blood sacrifice and possesses a means to sacrifice to the Gate of Immortality."

"And the tribute for the sacrifice is naturally the myriad spirits of the Immortal Domain."

"Just like in ancient times, when the emperor sacrificed to the heavens, he would slaughter cattle and sheep as sacrifices."

"The significance of the existence of the so-called Chief Priest is to initiate the Dark Turmoil and use the power of blood sacrifice to sacrifice the myriad spirits of the Immortal Domain."

"Using the myriad spirits of the Immortal Domain as nourishment, through an immortal altar in the Land of Return to Ruins, to sacrifice to the Gate of Immortality, causing it to open."

"Of course, until now, the Gate of Immortality has never been completely opened."

"Only knowing that the more energy sacrificed, the larger the gap in the Gate of Immortality, naturally allowing more Immortal Dao substances to flow out."

"Although those supreme taboos who want to become immortals cannot enter the Gate of Immortality, Immortal Dao substances are also of great benefit to them."

"The Chief Priest, as the main body of the sacrifice, controls the most massive power of blood sacrifice and naturally can obtain the most Immortal Dao substances."

"And the act of sacrificing to the Gate of Immortality through the immortal altar is called the sacrificial ceremony."

Kunshan's long string of words made the entire hall dead silent.

This truth was heard for the first time even by Nie Zhan, A-Jiu, and others.

"This... is too cruel, slaughtering the myriad spirits of the Immortal Domain like cattle and sheep to become tribute and sacrificing them to the Gate of Immortality."

A-Jiu covered her red lips with her jade hands.

With her state of mind as still as an ancient well, she could not help but raise waves and carry a trace of anger at this moment.

"These Chief Priests are truly not human!"

Nie Zhan also had a cold expression and cursed.

Although in the eyes of these strong people, those common people might indeed be like ants.

But may I ask, who was not transformed from an ant step by step?

Could it be that someone was born high and above? (Except for Within Jun Xiaoyao)

As a strong person standing at the peak, not to mention being compassionate.

At least one cannot sacrifice the lives of billions of creatures to open the Gate of Immortality.

The most important thing is, it still can't be opened?

Isn't this a kind of futility?

Hearing Nie Zhan's words, Kunshan showed a cold, mocking smile and said.

"Human? Those Chief Priests, they are no longer considered human."

"They stand at the very peak of the Nine Heavens and have long abandoned the seven emotions and six desires of being human."

"Becoming an immortal is their only goal."

"You may not be able to imagine the pain of forever staying in one realm until you wither away in the passage of time."

"And the pain of the hope of becoming an immortal being right in front of you, but you cannot step into it."

"This kind of pain makes them lose all emotions as a human and become an existence even more indifferent than the Heavenly Dao."

"The Heavenly Dao is unkind, treating all things as straw dogs."

"In their view, as long as they can sublimate to the extreme and step into the Immortal Dao realm, what does it matter if they sacrifice all creatures in the world?"

Kunshan's words made everyone present silent.

Indeed.

Without reaching their realm, it is naturally impossible to understand their state of mind.

As the saying goes, seeing mountains as mountains, seeing water as water.

People in different realms will have different views on the same thing.

In their eyes, sacrificing the myriad spirits of the Immortal Domain for one's own selfishness is simply a heinous crime.

But in the eyes of those Chief Priests, what is wrong with achieving oneself at the cost of billions of ants?

Within Jun Xiaoyao was also silent.

Honestly, he was not the type of person who was a saint.

For him, the myriad spirits were indeed no different from ants.

Before, in the battle of the Ultimate Calamity, Within Jun Xiaoyao was regarded as a great hero who saved the Immortal Domain.

But in fact, his initial purpose was just to help his father, Jun Jun Wu Hui, and incidentally gain a wave of faith power.

He really didn't want to be a hero just to be a hero.

"Could it be that the system let me sign in for this Chief Priest Token because it really wants me to become the Fifth Chief Priest?"

Within Jun Xiaoyao couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart.

Did the system also see through him and know what kind of character he was?

But it had to be said that with Within Jun Xiaoyao's indifferent and self-respecting character, he was really suitable to be a Chief Priest.

However, Within Jun Xiaoyao thought carefully and felt that he shouldn't be corrupted to that extent.

Although Within Jun Xiaoyao and those Chief Priests had similarities in mentality,

he actually had one biggest difference from the Chief Priests.

That was, he had attachments in his heart and had the emotions of being a human.

There were two beautiful beauties waiting for his engagement promise.

Within Jun Xiaoyao felt.

Jiang Shengyi and Jiang Luoli should not want to see their husband become an existence that annihilated humanity like the Chief Priest.

And his father, Jun Jun Wu Hui, would not want to see this scene either.

"Although it is impossible to truly fall into darkness, but... it is not impossible to use this identity of the Chief Priest."

Within Jun Xiaoyao had already started to calculate in his heart.

He was not the kind of pedantic person who couldn't tolerate a little darkness in his eyes.

Power has no distinction between good and evil; it only depends on how it is used.

Within Jun Xiaoyao also had to obtain the identity and power of the Chief Priest! ===== CHAPTER 1444 =====
