Master Amirah took out a Black Banner adorned with stars and runes from his robe, while six elders of the Curse Sorcery Cult stood in a semicircle behind him.
Master Amirah shook the Black Banner and quickly chanted an urgent and incomprehensible sorcery curse.
The six elders joined in, their faces radiating a sacred solemnity.
The continuous chanting of the sorcery curse echoed through the vast cave, carrying a sense of solemnity and sanctity.
Three minutes later, the chanting ceased. Master Amirah suddenly shouted and shook the Black Banner.
With a loud bang, the Black Banner shot out a blinding blood-red light that soared into the air.
As it reached mid-air, the blood-red light exploded into countless bloody “meteors” that rained down to the ground.
In an instant, each small flag in front of the guards received a thin beam of blood-red light.
Ninety-eight small blood-red flags began to tremble, emitting a faint red glow.
As the small blood-red flags trembled, a faint starlight appeared in the center of the volcano’s crater, swirling alone.
Seeing the starlight, Master Amirah’s expression turned excited. He said something loudly to the six elders of the Curse Sorcery Cult.
The six elders stood behind Master Amirah in a line, each placing their hands on the back of the person in front of them, and began chanting in an incomprehensible sorcery language.
Master Amirah’s previously pale face became vibrant. He shook the Black Banner again, sending another brighter blood-red light into the air.
As soon as the blood-red light reached mid-air, it exploded into countless tiny “meteors” that struck the small blood-red flags, causing them to tremble even more violently.
With the intense trembling of the small blood-red flags, the faint starlight in the air grew brighter, multiplying into two strands, then three…
Witnessing this strange phenomenon, everyone became increasingly excited.
At this moment, Leo was engaged in a fierce battle.
The six Blood Toads, trained by some sinister sorcery of the Curse Sorcery Cult, were extremely ferocious.
They rampaged through Leo’s veins, heading towards his brain along with the flow of blood.
Fortunately, spiritual energy blocked their path; otherwise, Leo wouldn’t have lasted even half a minute.
Soon, six streams of spiritual energy successfully intercepted the six Blood Toads.
The spiritual energy waves clashed against the Blood Toads, but they went berserk and refused to retreat.
The situation was dire; it was a fight to the death.
Leo summoned all his spiritual energy to suppress the six Blood Toads.
The battle reached a stalemate again, and blood trickled from Leo’s mouth.
As time passed, under the relentless impact of powerful spiritual energy, the six Blood Toads seemed to fear for their lives and retreated towards Leo’s chest.
Their new target was Leo’s heart. Just as they were about to reverse flow into his heart chambers through his veins, spiritual energy arrived first.
In the next second, spiritual energy enveloped the six Blood Toads.
They struggled and bit frantically but couldn’t escape.
Next, Leo needed to use spiritual energy to refine these six evil creatures.
However, these Blood Toads were incredibly tenacious. Although their bodies gradually shrank under the refining process of spiritual energy, they refused to die and fought desperately.
Time was crucial now!
The Nine Heavens Star River Formation was being activated rapidly.
With each burst of blood-red light from the Black Banner into the small flags, more and more starlight filled the sky, becoming brighter and stronger.
Gradually, countless strands of starlight formed a massive glowing sphere in mid-air. It was bright with a hint of oceanic blue, stunningly beautiful.
“The time has come. Sacrifice!” Master Amirah shouted loudly.
Guards holding children drew their Miao Blades and cruelly cut the children’s wrists, letting their blood drip into holes beneath the blood-red flags.
Guards holding five effigies did the same; these effigies were hollow and filled with children’s blood.
Soon, the blood-soaked flags trembled more violently, emitting an even stronger red glow.
Master Linda of the Five Poison Sect showed a hint of reluctance on her face-perhaps due to some innate maternal instinct. But after glancing at Chiyou’s remains, this reluctance vanished completely.
Finally, Leo’s powerful spiritual energy fully refined and dissipated the six Blood Toads within his bloodstream.
Leo’s eyes snapped open, shining with intense light.
The Nine Heavens Star River Formation had reached its most critical point.
The starry sphere above the formation’s core grew brighter and more beautiful.
Everyone could clearly feel the terrifying power contained within this beautiful sphere.
Master Amirah and the six elders of the Curse Sorcery Cult looked increasingly serious.
Suddenly, Master Amirah shouted again and chanted another string of sorcery language.
The guards immediately activated mechanisms.
Massive iron chains lowered rapidly, and an iron cage containing Chiyou’s remains descended straight into the flowing lava of the volcano’s crater.
What were they trying to do?
Were they out of their minds, intending to burn Chiyou’s remains?
Just as the iron cage was about to sink into the crater, Master Amirah shook the Black Banner forcefully. The Black Banner roared and shot a strong blood-red light at the iron cage.
A layer of blood-red light shielded the iron cage as it slowly sank into the lava that could melt steel.
The scorching lava splashed with a terrifying sound as it hit heavy objects.
Members of the Five Poison Sect and Ghost Path Church turned pale with worry.
At that moment, Master Amirah and the six elders of the Curse Sorcery Cult began chanting loudly again.
A string of obscure sorcery language echoed through the vast cave.
In mid-air, the starry sphere grew brighter and seemed to solidify. The Power of the Nine Heavens Stars within it was clearly reaching saturation.
Master Amirah’s face lit up with joy. Just as he was about to shake the Black Banner again, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his heart and spat out a mouthful of blood.
Simultaneously, all six elders of the Curse Sorcery Cult turned pale and vomited blood together.
Members of the Five Poison Sect and Ghost Path Church sensed something amiss and turned their attention to Leo-the “dying man.”
Leo had stood up again from his seated position. His eyes blazed like torches, radiating intense killing intent.
“Today, you all must die!” Each word Leo uttered carried terrifying killing intent that sent chills down everyone’s spine.
Leo flicked his hand, sending out a beam of golden light that struck the blood-red shield around Chiyou’s remains.
With a loud bang, the blood-red shield shattered and disappeared without a trace.
Members of the Five Poison Sect and Ghost Path Church widened their eyes in disbelief at what was happening before them.
Surviving after having six Blood Toads from Curse Sorcery Cult enter one’s body was beyond their comprehension. The six Blood Toads were life-bound curse worms of Curse Sorcery Cult’s six elders-immensely powerful creatures.
“My Blood Toads!” The six elders clutched their chests in excruciating pain.
