~10 min read 1,909 words

Ye Fei frowned, his heart was shocked, his eyes shifted, looking unbelievable.

Gui Xiansheng had already stepped away, but hearing these words, he stopped. His face was gloomy, staring at Lu Fan, silent, seeming to be thinking about something.

Xiulan was puzzled, Lu Fan's appearance was very different from his previous unfathomable actions. The other party must have discovered something, she couldn't help but become interested and asked: "What's wrong? Young Master Lu, is there a problem with this array map?"

Lu Fan looked at Xiulan, then turned his gaze to Gui Xiansheng, looking solemn. He seemed to have felt something, but he couldn't be sure yet.

"Gui Xiansheng, has the sacrifice been prepared?" Lu Fan's words were very heavy, shaking his head slightly, then looked at Xiulan deeply.

Xiulan was stunned, she couldn't figure out what was going on? Instinctively felt something weird, and even a hint of warning.

"Haha!" Gui Xiansheng laughed loudly, seeming a bit happy, and a bit proud, "Young Master Lu is truly not disappointing me. I didn't expect you to see through the mystery with just one array map."

Gui Xiansheng walked slowly, his steps relaxed, the ghost energy lingering around him seemed to dissipate a bit, seeming to have a bit more vitality.

"Hehe!" He laughed strangely, and without warning, waved his sleeve, covering Xiulan.

Xiulan was just a Dark Rune Master, and without any preparation, she was immediately restrained, looking panicked, unable to say even half a sentence.

In an instant, the atmosphere of the whole scene changed greatly. Gui Xiansheng's attack on Xiulan was far beyond Zhu Ge Qing Ming's expectation, and he subconsciously leaned toward Lu Fan, fearing that Lu Fan would be poisoned by the other party.

Lu Fan's pupils shrank, then slowly returned to normal, and returned to his previous calm appearance, saying lightly: "Gui Xiansheng has great courage, the sacrifice offered at the Sacrificial Grand Ceremony is actually a rare Dark Rune Master!"

Things have reached this point, everything is already very clear, Xiulan possesses the Evil Ghost Spirit Fetus, which is the best sacrifice for this live sacrifice.

"What? This is actually a live sacrifice!" Zhu Ge Qing Ming's face was shocked, with his insight as a Qi Refining Realm Rune Venerable, hearing this, he was also shocked. Although he had long known that the Skull Society was an evil cult, he didn't expect it to be like this.

"Haha!" Gui Xiansheng laughed wildly, his face turned ferocious in an instant, "Not bad, it is a live sacrifice. Originally, this girl was to be sacrificed, now with Young Master Lu here, I think the certainty is even greater!"

Xiulan, although restrained, had all five senses, hearing these words, her face was like death, and she fell into an ice cellar. Crystal tears fell drop by drop, her heart filled with regret and panic, hard to describe.

Lu Fan smiled lightly: "Such a pretty girl, to be sacrificed alive like this, it's really a pity!"

The words were said, but he didn't have the slightest pity. Easy, calm, and even a hint of teasing.

"What? Young Master Lu is pitying the fragrant and cherishing the jade?" Gui Xiansheng frowned, hearing such a shocking thing as a live sacrifice, the other party could still be calm.

Just this bearing was enough to make many people ashamed. If he hadn't carefully investigated the other party's bone age, he would have thought it was some old monster who practiced special techniques and returned to youth.

Lu Fan raised his eyebrows, walked up slowly, reached Xiulan's side. Grabbed the other party's bare arm, stared at the twisting Evil Ghost Spirit Fetus, and laughed lightly: "Pitying the fragrant and cherishing the jade? I can't afford it!"

Xiulan was dead in heart, Lu Fan's words made her completely numb, as if she had become a puppet.

"Good! Then please Young Master Lu start quickly!" Gui Xiansheng's eyes were slightly solemn, Lu Fan's casual appearance made him feel restless.

Lu Fan curled his lips and sighed leisurely: "This so-called Sacrificial Grand Ceremony, with only the three of us, is too shabby!" He looked at Xiulan's miserable face again, shook his head, "Oh! Almost forgot you, you are the protagonist of the sacrifice!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly pulled a dagger from his trouser leg and threw it directly at Gui Xiansheng's feet, saying coldly: "You remove the ghost energy in the Evil Ghost Spirit Fetus, I have a big use for it later!"

Gui Xiansheng was slightly stunned, this tone, he felt very uncomfortable, as if ordering himself.

"Oh! By the way! Don't stain a trace of essence blood, if this sacrifice has a problem. Even if the deity's split soul manifests, I'm afraid it won't be satisfied, maybe it will add two or three lines to the sacrifice list, you know the consequences!"

Lu Fan added another sentence, his tone was very raw, and there was even a hint of warning and threat.

He didn't have the heart to talk nonsense with Gui Xiansheng, turned to the altar, and studied the Desolate Seal inscription again.

This Desolate Seal inscription was clearly left by someone here, according to the previous speculation, the weirdness here was clearly done by that Fifth-Tier Ghost King.

But Lu Fan knew that the Ghost King was at most a latecomer, the person who left the Desolate Seal inscription must be an incredible existence.

Even he in his previous life might not be able to inscribe such a Desolate Seal. He could hardly imagine what kind of existence left this altar.

He took a light breath, suppressed the shock and doubt in his heart. No matter what background this altar had, it was no longer magical. Only the Desolate Seal inscription remained, but it was just simulating a trace of the Desolate Beast's innate supernatural powers.

He calmed down, and had already made a decision.

This altar can transform and swallow power, stored in that mysterious void, which can be seen as a container. As long as it is slightly improved, the power accumulated in the void can be mobilized to support the operation of the sacrificial array.

I think the Skull Society has been planning here, and they have seen this situation. Lu Fan understood it in an instant, but didn't look at it anymore.

Abruptly, his True Qi operated, spiritual power surged out, and his hands pinched tricks, pointing constantly.

One after another, the seals shot out, rolling up the surrounding rune array materials, as if they had spirituality, crazily surging toward the altar. A mysterious array extended, integrated into the altar, as if it were natural.

Zhu Ge Qing Ming was stunned, this method of setting up the array was extremely brilliant, and the efficiency was incredible. Clearly only a Second-Tier Rune Master, but his spiritual power was so condensed, and his control was comparable to a Fourth-Tier Great Rune Master.

Even some of the techniques revealed in between exceeded his vision. If his strength was fully restored, I'm afraid he would have to spend some effort to achieve this effect. That is to say, Ye Fei, a Second-Tier Rune Master, revealed things that exceeded a Sixth-Tier Rune Venerable!

This was simply an incredible thing, if it spread out, it could shock the world.

On the other side, Gui Xiansheng was gloomy. The things Lu Fan ordered him to do were really difficult for him.

Separating the Evil Ghost Spirit Fetus, and not staining a trace of essence blood. This clearly meant for him to remove the Evil Ghost Spirit Fetus from Xiulan without any damage. Such a thing, not only consumes True Qi, but even greatly consumes his life essence.

However, considering the huge harvest after the Sacrificial Grand Ceremony, he bit the bullet and did it. The steel dagger gently scratched the Evil Ghost Spirit Fetus, and immediately "ying ying" strange sounds, like a baby crying. At the same time, a gloomy ghost energy dissipated.

Gui Xiansheng just sniffed it, and his face changed drastically. He hurriedly took out a black alms bowl and absorbed the ghost energy.

It was just this one, the scratch on the Evil Ghost Spirit Fetus recovered quickly, intact! At the same time, Xiulan's face turned pale, seeming to lose a trace of vitality.

Gui Xiansheng's face turned ugly, this Evil Ghost Spirit Fetus was clearly absorbing Xiulan's essence. The Evil Ghost Spirit Fetus must be isolated, otherwise, this thing was not separated, but the sacrifice died, which would be a big problem.

He grabbed Xiulan's shoulder, his True Qi erupted, drilled into the other party's acupoints, and sealed them. Then, knife by knife, he began to extract the aura of the Evil Ghost Spirit Fetus.

Just like this, Lu Fan condensed the array, Gui Xiansheng concentrated on extracting the Evil Ghost Spirit Fetus, and Zhu Ge Qing Ming was not relaxed either.

Although he was just observing Lu Fan's method of setting up the array, the incredible techniques that fell into his eyes were still shocking. His heart was moved, hundreds of doubts, lingering in his mind. His whole face was wrinkled, and the pain of thinking hard returned to him.

I don't know how long it took, Lu Fan, who was setting up the array in an orderly manner, shouted abruptly, "Condense for me!" Waving his tricks, runes drifted above the altar, turning into a whirlwind, and an array restriction descended with a bang.

On the altar, there was originally a Desolate Seal array, which was suppressed by Lu Fan's rune array, manifested, and condensed into rune seal inscriptions.

At this moment, on the Art Refining Crystal Furnace, another array restriction was added, and an indescribable evil feeling drifted out.

Three arrays shone together, in the same void, but three completely different arrays appeared, weird and incomparable.

Zhu Ge Qing Ming was stunned, in his view, these three arrays clearly had no connection, but at this moment they fit perfectly together. This was completely different from his past cognition of array dao.

"The sacrificial array is finally set up, my decades of hard work are finally about to be realized!" Gui Xiansheng saw this array, excited and hard to understand. That array map had been passed down from generation to generation in the Skull Society, although he didn't understand Rune Dao, he still recognized this sacrificial array.

Lu Fan said coldly: "Gui Xiansheng, this array can't last long, you hurry up. Without the aura of the Evil Ghost Spirit Fetus, you can't summon what you want!"

As soon as his voice fell, Gui Xiansheng realized, and hurriedly continued to extract the Evil Ghost Spirit Fetus. This time the speed suddenly increased, regardless of the rapid consumption of True Qi.

After half a stick of incense, the Evil Ghost Spirit Fetus on Xiulan's arm turned into a phantom, and the last trace of aura was stripped out and collected into the black alms bowl.

At this moment, Xiulan's aura was withered, and her consciousness was long gone, falling into a coma.

"Come! Young Master Lu, see how it is?" Gui Xiansheng couldn't suppress his surging heart, holding the girl in one hand, and holding the black alms bowl in the other, handing it to Lu Fan.

Ye Fei took the black alms bowl, but didn't care about Xiulan, stared at Gui Xiansheng, and said indifferently: "You seem to have forgotten something?" ===== CHAPTER 35 =====
