Chapter 267: Promoted Yaksha

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Asura World, the Vemacitrin Blood Fighting Arena, the underground blood pool altar.

“High Priest, that new yaksha is slacking again!”

“That fellow has already been here for more than ten days, but we’ve never seen him sit properly on the altar for a day!”

“Even if he does something, the blood-colored altar will only shine with the lowest level of spiritual light. This has never happened in the past few hundred years! The High Priest must teach him a lesson.”

“Right, right. A few days ago, I even saw him secretly absorbing the blood in the blood pool. This fellow is simply unforgivable! We should melt him and pour him into the blood pool!”

In front of the demon statues in the underground blood pool, a few small Evil Eyes were complaining to their Evil Eye High Priest.

It was the large evil eye that had captured the yaksha clone and forced him to work.

These little Evil Eyes worked hard every day to squeeze out life and soul, but the new worker was completely at ease.

They were naturally feeling mentally unbalanced. After some thought, they plucked up the courage to complain to the High Priest.

“Is that true?! A mere Fallen Blood Yaksha actually dares to be lazy under me! Hmph, I’ll let him know the consequences of doing this!”

In the first place, the Great Demon Eye was not very satisfied with a foreigner working under him. Now that he ended up slacking, how could it not anger the High Priest?

The house was the size of a building, and it only had a layer of eyelids and countless tentacles covering its large eyes. It brought with it a group of small evil eyes as it aggressively floated towards the Fallen Blood Yaksha.

The bloodshot eyeball emitted an extremely dangerous light. One had to know that the evil eye’s gaze could really kill.

“Lord High Priest, look, he’s actually still pretending to work.”

After approaching, these eyeballs saw Jiang Li’s yaksha clone sitting cross-legged on the altar.

After the soul link, the entire altar was emitting a thin layer of blood-colored light.

However, compared to the other altars, that light was far inferior.

Just as the other Evil Eyes had said, the clone did not work hard.

“Lord High Priest, you saw it too, right? This level of spiritual light is definitely not able to connect to the human world. He’s just being lazy!”

One of the Evil Eyes did not forget to add fuel to the fire.

The countless tentacles on the eyelids of the Great Evil Eye that was in charge of the blood pool altar twisted crazily. There were actually purple lightning bolts flickering on them.

It could be seen that this High Priest was really furious.

“Yaksha! Get down here and let me drain your brain bit by bit!”

A sharp mental will pierced into the clone’s mind like a steel needle, forcing him to come down and accept the cruelest death.

If not for the fear of damaging the altar, this Evil Eye High Priest would have long sent a bolt of lightning to slash him into ashes.

However, at this moment, the light on the blood-red altar suddenly increased. A faint light appeared above the altar and stretched into the void, as if it was connected to a distant place.

The Great Evil Eye’s anger and attack stopped.

“This is… a connection?”

The house-sized eye widened, revealing shock and confusion.

“Stop pretending! Didn’t you hear what the High Priest said?! Don’t you think it’s too late to pretend to be diligent now? Get down!”

The Evil Eye at the side did not have such good perception. It felt that the yaksha clone was still pretending, so it went forward to pull this new worker off the altar.

However, before its tentacle could touch the side of the altar, a black light instantly arrived and blasted it apart on the spot. It turned into a stream of dirty water that splattered on the ground.

It was the evil light emitted by the Evil Eye High Priest. Their race could really kill with their eye.

“No one is allowed to disturb him! If you interrupt the connection of the altar, I’ll boil your souls in the blood pot for ten thousand years!”

“How long has it been since the Vemacitrin Blood Pool was connected to the altar in the human world? Finally… is it finally about to succeed again?”

Not to mention the fact that such a method of severing the spirit and casting it into the continent of the Nine Provinces through the altar consumed a huge amount of energy every few months, the success rate was also very low.

One had to know how vast the continent of the Nine Provinces was. Apart from land, there was also a large area with an endless sea.

To throw a spiritual fragment like this was equivalent to randomly throwing a stone to the continent of the Nine Provinces. Where it landed depended on luck.

More than 99% of the spiritual fragments would fall into the wilderness and be unable to be discovered by intelligent creatures. Even until the spiritual energy dissipated, no one would find it.

Even if they were lucky and landed in the gathering place of humans, and were discovered before the energy ran out, they still had to use their mental strength to appease the humans in an extremely short period of time and convince them to swallow themselves into their stomachs. They had to consume lives to prolong the existence of the spiritual fragment.

It was common sense not to eat anything that was picked up. One could imagine how difficult it was to take this step.

Even if they were lucky enough to meet a fool and did as they said, they could only last for ten days with the life of a mortal.

In these ten days, they had to keep a low profile and avoid being plastered with a talisman paper by the local Daoist.

In addition, they also had to establish a cult in these ten days to spread the method of the Asura’s blood sacrifice.

In the end, how were the few mortals who received the news going to purchase spiritual materials that they had never seen in their lives and construct an altar that mortals could not build? This was another huge problem.

Every step here could reduce the chance of success to 1%.

Therefore, although there were many blood pools like the Asura World and there were also a large number of monsters working tirelessly, there were very few successful cases.

However, this Fallen Blood Yaksha had only been here for more than ten days, but it had actually progressed to the stage of binding the altar.

Not only did he bewitch humans, but he also successfully made the opposite side build a blood sacrifice altar.

Be it luck or strength, this made him feel very gratified. It had been too long since he had any results to report. If he did not succeed, he might be swallowed by Lord Vemacitrin.

Compared to the excitement of the Great Evil Eye, Jiang Li actually did not spend much effort to get the statue to contact the blood pool altar.

The Thousand Hands Divine Statue and the Fallen Blood Yaksha were both his clones.

Using Jiang Li’s spiritual world as a springboard, the two sides reached an agreement. It was as simple as handing a stone from his left hand to his right.

Originally, the most difficult and lowest probability was not a problem at all in the face of the clones that connected the two worlds.

He made a call here and the other party picked up. The second step of linking to the altar was completed.

“Good, good, good. You did very well! Don’t stop, listen to me.”

“Hurry up and perform the blood sacrifice. After completing one blood sacrifice, the channels on both sides can be completely established! After succeeding, I’ll give you a sinful heart! Stay calm and work hard!”

“Idiot, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and open the blood pool passageway!”

The High Priest’s Evil Eye’s attitude towards the yaksha clone was clearly different from his other subordinates. He sent a small Evil Eye flying with a tentacle and ordered it to open a gate beside the blood pool.

Immediately, a stream of blood of madness flowed down the ditch on the ground.

Highly concentrated blood of madness flowed to the bottom of the altar.

A red light immediately emitted from the blood-colored altar and surged towards the unknown along the thin line in the sky.

On the continent of the Nine Provinces, Jiang Li had just finished communicating in the Yin Burial Coffin when he sensed the movement of the Evil Eye on the other side.

“You’re quite anxious, but that’s good.”

“Haha, how generous!”

Before the two channels could be opened, the blood light surging over had already suffused a red color on the Thousand Hands Divine Statue.

To open the blood sacrifice channel, both sides needed to offer sacrifices, but the number and quality of the offerings did not have to be equal.

Over at the Vemacitrin Blood Pool, they generously p
