Chapter 433: Your Time of Death Has Come
It’s out!
It’s really out, and it’s already out!
Hearing the sound!
Whether it was King Roscoe, Lord Snow, or Lord Fisher, they all had a change in expression, and then King Roscoe said in a deep voice, “Bring it in!”
Just now!
After King Roscoe came in, he didn’t close the entrance to the underground altar, he was just waiting for those two young women!
“Yes!”
The two young women responded, and footsteps sounded again, getting closer and closer, soon, I saw them carrying a stretcher and coming into the underground altar!
And at this time!
Luna Porter was lying flat on the stretcher. Her originally barely clothed body was covered with a white brocade robe, with only her head exposed. At first glance, it looked like the white cloth covering a corpse!
Blood!
In the lower abdomen of Luna Porter, where the belly was still bulging high before in the imperial bedroom, it had completely collapsed, and in its place was a shocking patch of mottled bloodstains!
A very large pool of blood, dyeing a very large area of the white brocade robe red!
Obviously!
The two young women were not lying. As King Roscoe ordered, they forcibly dug out the child who was about to give birth from Luna Porter’s belly!
Luna Porter was awake!
It looks like!
Dying!
Her icy gaze stared straight at King Roscoe. There was no longer the deep love between her brows before, only undisguised chill and killing intent. She gritted her teeth and said coldly, “King Roscoe! You are cruel and tyrannical, selfish and self-serving, and stop at nothing to achieve your goals!”
“You!”
“Will soon pay the price for what you have done!”
“Soon!!!”
However!
In the face of Luna Porter’s anger and threats, King Roscoe ignored her and disdained to even look at Luna Porter again. He asked the two young women, “Lord Snow, Lord Fisher, there is no time to delay. Let’s start now!”
“Okay!”
Lord Snow and Lord Fisher looked at each other and nodded!
Then!
Lord Fisher walked up a few steps, took the dead infant from the young woman’s hand, grabbed the dead infant’s left leg with his left hand and right leg with his right hand, without any pity or hesitation, pulled hard!
Suddenly!
Accompanied by an eerie sound, the dead infant was directly torn in half by Lord Fisher on the spot, blood splattered wildly, and its internal organs all fell out messily on the ground, the situation was really horrifying to behold!
“Lord Fisher, here!”
Lord Fisher’s expression was as usual, as if tearing apart the corpse of a dead infant like this was as trivial as tearing apart a rotten fish, he weighed it a little in his hand, then handed half of it to Lord Snow!
Lord Snow reached out and took half of the dead infant. The majestic dark energy in his body and the little Bright Energy in his core intertwined and erupted. His clothes billowed, his white hair flew, his feet left the ground, and his whole person slowly rose into the air!
“Let’s go!”
Lord Fisher then went to the other side of the sacrificial blood pool, holding the other half of the dead infant’s corpse, and like Lord Snow, dark energy and Bright Energy erupted at the same time, gale winds rose around his extremely burly body, lifting him up!
“King Roscoe!!!”
Seeing the dead infant being treated so cruelly, Luna Porter, lying on the stretcher and unable to move, turned red eyes towards King Roscoe. Her gaze was as cold as a knife, and her voice coming out between her teeth was even more eerie, almost hoarse from crying, “You will not die well!”
“You will not die well!”
“You will not die well!!!”
In one breath!
She cursed three times in a row, showing Luna Porter’s hatred for King Roscoe!
“How I die, I’m afraid you won’t live to see it in this life. Enjoy the last moments of your life, curse as much as you want, when you’re done cursing, it will be your turn…”
With that!
King Roscoe rose up and leaped onto the jade pillar in the middle of the sacrificial blood pool, sat cross-legged, exchanged glances with Lord Snow and Lord Fisher, then slowly closed his eyes, his whole body wrapped in the rich blood-colored steam, trying to absorb it for his own use!
Drip!
Drip!
Drip!
On both sides of the altar, Lord Snow and Lord Fisher each held half of the dead infant’s corpse, blood dripping from the dead infant’s corpse like water pouring into the jade stone troughs on the edge of the altar!
Originally!
There were ten barbs hidden in the jade stone around the altar. As the Soul-Devouring Formation was activated, the ten barbs could drill out, like giant needles, drawing blood from the sacrificer’s body, thus activating the Soul-Devouring Formation!
Just like what King Ron did to Sean last time!
Unfortunately!
Last time in the battle at the imperial city, not only did Sean and Cecilia execute King Ron, but after using the Soul-Devouring Formation to save Cecilia’s life, Sean also destroyed the sacrificial blood pool before leaving, rendering those ten barbs completely useless and difficult to repair!
So!
When King Roscoe sent people to repair the sacrificial blood pool, grooves were carved on the jade stone around the altar to replace the role of those ten barbs!
Unlike those ten barbs, these grooves would not actively suck blood, they could only be manually poured, and then activated using Bright Energy to activate the Soul-Devouring Formation!
Coincidentally!
King Roscoe is not even close to the Bright Realm now, without a trace of Bright Energy in his body, which is why he had to cooperate with Lord Snow and Lord Fisher!
Lord Snow and Lord Fisher were both genuine cultivators close to the Bright Realm. Although there was not much Bright Energy in their cores, it should be enough to activate the Soul-Devouring Formation!
So!
When the blood dripping from the dead infant’s corpse had almost filled the grooves on the jade stone, Lord Snow and Lord Fisher saw it was time. They immediately put down the halves of the dead infant’s corpse they were holding, and pressed their palms against the jade stone around the altar, madly injecting the little Bright Energy in their bodies into the jade stone!!!
One second!
Two seconds!
Five seconds!
Ten seconds!
Half a minute!
Time slipped by swiftly. King Roscoe, Lord Snow and Lord Fisher all had solemn expressions, holding their breath, hearts thumping, anxiously waiting for the moment when the Soul-Devouring Formation would be activated!
The winner becomes king!
The loser becomes the enemy!
There was only one chance. Failure would be unimaginable!
Finally!
After persisting for nearly five minutes, just when Lord Snow and Lord Fisher’s faces were slightly pale, seemingly about to be unable to hold on, suddenly, a red glow gradually appeared in the jade stone of the altar!
The jade stone of the altar was glowing red!
This!
Was the omen that the Soul-Devouring Formation had been successfully activated!
“It’s bright!”Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.
At the moment the red light came on, Lord Snow’s eyes lit up as he cried out involuntarily!
“Hahaha, great! It worked!”
“Success!”
Lord Fisher’s rough and excited smile also burst out on his pale face!
King Roscoe had his eyes closed!
But!
He heard the excited laughter of Lord Snow and Lord Fisher. His tightened heart shuddered violently, extremely pleasantly surprised. Lord Snow and Lord Fisher’s excitement was nothing compared to the wild joy in his heart!
Bright!
It’s bright!
It finally lit up!
With Lord Snow and Lord Fisher personally protecting him, as long as the Soul-Devouring Formation could be activated smoothly, King Roscoe’s path to promotion was almost halfway to success already. How could he not be excited?
Not overjoyed?
If not for the current situation not allowing it, King Roscoe had to devote all his concentration into his own cultivation, looking for a chance to break through his current realm, he would have jumped up to celebrate!
Soon!
As the Soul-Devouring Formation was activated, the red glow in the jade stone became more and more dazzling before their eyes, like a huge, red-hot branding iron. The eerie red glow, the churning blood in the pool, and the mist-like blood-colored steam blended together to make the atmosphere in the underground altar even more sinister and terrifying!
It actually…
succeeded?
Lying flat on the stretcher, Luna Porter naturally saw this horrifying scene too. Her pupils suddenly contracted.
However!
Despite her surprise, this scene did not increase the anger in Luna Porter’s heart.
However!
Despite her surprise, this scene did not increase the anger in Luna Porter’s heart. On the contrary, she stared at King Roscoe sitting cross-legged on the jade pillar in the middle of the altar with his eyes closed and cultivating, she gave a cold snort, and suddenly the corners of her lips curved up into a cruel and cold smile!
She smiled!
She was not annoyed or angry, but smiled instead!
Moreover!
It was the kind of smile when a sinister scheme succeeds!
“Good!”
“Very good!”
After a while, Luna Porter said coldly with a smile, “King Roscoe, your mission is complete!”
“Tonight!”
“Is your time of death!!!”
As she spoke!
Luna Porter exerted a little force. Her originally dying appearance suddenly became spirited, and her body, which was limp like a blob of mud and unable to move before, suddenly became full of vitality. The moment her voice fell, she slowly sat up from the stretcher!
This scene!
Naturally fell into the eyes of the two young women carrying Luna Porter in. However, the two of them were not surprised, nor did they immediately take action against Luna Porter!
On the contrary!
They looked at each other, and even took the initiative to walk over to help support Luna Porter!
As if they already knew all this!
Mission?
What mission???
Hearing Luna Porter’s inexplicable words, King Roscoe’s ears pricked up. Although his eyes were closed, with the far superior perception of a Complete Stage cultivator, he could clearly sense Luna Porter’s every move at this moment!
Suddenly!
There was a thud in King Roscoe’s heart. His expression changed drastically. His heart, which had just calmed down, shuddered violently again. Shocked, he had to stop cultivating for the moment and opened his eyes wide!
Then!
He saw with his own eyes Luna Porter being helped to sit up by those two young women!
Damn!
Damn!
Damn!
What the hell was this???
In an instant!
King Roscoe’s face turned green. He didn’t know that those two young women, like Luna Porter, were also King Roscoe’s confidantes whom he had carefully cultivated before, working for him during the day and warming his bed at night, and had always been loyal to him!
And now!
What did he see???
“You!”
King Roscoe sat there, too shocked to speak, “You two…”
“Us?”
After Luna Porter sat up, one of the young women next to her took off her own coat and put it over Luna Porter’s bare body. She looked up at the shocked King Roscoe and smiled, “These two are my people!”
“Hehe!”
“Do you find it strange?”
“Surprised?”
“Feeling strange is right, being surprised is right. I laid such a big trap, at the risk of my life, to lure you to take the bait, just to see the terrified expression on your face now!”
“It looks so good!”
“Much better than your usual hypocritical grimace!!!”
After saying that!
Not only did Luna Porter sit up, but also, with the support of those two young women, she stood up in a dignified manner!
“Traitors!”
“You two traitors!!!”
King Roscoe glared fiercely at the two young women, his brows revealing a strong murderous intent. However, he did not take action himself, but gestured to Lord Snow and Lord Fisher, who were floating in the air on both sides of the sacrificial blood pool, “Lord Snow! Lord Fisher! Kill them!”
“Do it now, kill them!”
“Leave none of them alive!”
“I will make them all my sacrifices! Let them suffer a fate worse than death! Let them know the consequences of betraying me!!!”
King Roscoe was really furious!
Whether as a prince before or as the current monarch, King Roscoe had always prided himself on being a cultivator who could manipulate people’s hearts and was skilled in deploying troops.
Especially for women!
Without exaggeration, the number of women who had been played by King Roscoe before was at least eighty if not a hundred. He had never stumbled over a woman before!
This was the first time!
Moreover!
This time, success or failure was directly related to his life and death!
How could he tolerate this?
“Okay!”
Hearing King Roscoe’s order, Lord Snow nodded, then raised his hand without hesitation and threw a punch enveloped in majestic dark energy and a thread of Bright Energy straight at them!
However!
Instead of following King Roscoe’s order to attack Luna Porter and the two young women, he targeted the punch at King Roscoe sitting cross-legged on the jade pillar!
Boom!
In the blink of an eye, Lord Snow was a genuine cultivator nearing the Bright Realm. How fast was he? How great was the power of Bright Energy? In the short distance of a few meters, it arrived in an instant, leaving King Roscoe no time to even be surprised. He only felt a huge force suddenly attacking him from behind, pounding heavily on his back. That kind of excruciating pain was like being smashed by a mountain!
