Chapter 406 Blood Sacrifice

However, what happened to the god-level powerful people who ascended to the Thousand Gods Empire in the divine world, and one of them even died.

As the emperor of the Thousand Gods Empire, Chapman not only has a sect that he supports behind the scenes, but his own cultivation talent is also top-notch.

He also has great hope of being promoted to a god-level powerhouse and ascending to the divine realm.

But looking at the scene in front of him, Chapman felt an unspeakable fear of the unknown world of gods.

As the Pope of the Hunting Sect continued to read out the list of churches to be purged, some of the bishops and popes present were completely disheartened, while others wanted to fight to the death with the guards present and die for their own gods.

But the Pope of the Hunting Sect and those sects that supported him were obviously well prepared.

Outside the imperial palace of the Thousand Gods Empire, a large number of powerful Saint Realm warriors had been waiting there long ago.

Soon, the imperial palace of the Thousand Gods Empire was stained with blood, but thanks to the preparations of the Hunting Sect and other sects, peace was soon restored.

But the sects that were purged were not just the bishops and popes in the imperial palace.

Even the weakest sect has at least one million believers in the Thousand Gods Empire.

Looking at the hall in front of him with more than half of the people missing, Chapman knew that the Thousand Gods Empire would no longer be stable in the coming period of time.

After the meeting, the Pope of the Hunting Sect, the Pope of the Poseidon Sect and others came together and secretly discussed how to clean up those sects.

Anyway, Chapman is just a puppet they pushed forward, and he is placed in the position of emperor just for show.

"Next, we must conduct the first blood sacrifice as soon as possible and sacrifice the creatures of the wizarding world to our gods."

The Pope of the Poseidon Sect said this, his tone indescribably fierce.

Although the god he believes in is the sea god Alman, this Pope is a human being through and through.

Other sects are basically also based on humans.

"Well, let's first perform a blood sacrifice on those people we captured today."

The Pope of the Hunting Sect nodded and agreed to the suggestion of the Pope of the Poseidon Sect.

The gods behind them united together for the sake of the original power of the wizarding world.

However, these gods cannot descend from the divine realm to the wizarding world. They can only absorb the original power of the wizarding world bit by bit through blood sacrifices of the original life forms of the wizarding world.

This method was discovered by the sea god Alman.

During the 50,000 years since he ascended, he often asked his subordinates to sacrifice the blood of marine monsters and sea creatures in the wizarding world to him.

After a long period of practice, he also found that his divine origin was constantly growing.

After knowing that it was obtained from the original life of the wizarding world through blood sacrifice, Poseidon set his sights on the origin of the wizarding world.

However, it is impossible for him to control the entire wizarding world with the strength of his Poseidon Sect and the sea clan.

So this sea god secretly allied with the god of hunting and other gods.

In fact, the Hunting Sect, the Poseidon Sect and other sects have secretly carried out many blood sacrifices in the past.

For example, the alien species of the Dark Council, the elves of the Elf Continent, the orcs of the Northern Wasteland, and even the humans of the Central Continent, they have all performed blood sacrifices.

It was finally discovered that the origin of the wizarding world was contained in the bodies of humans in the Central Continent.

In order to completely control the wizarding world, these gods issued oracles, allowing the sects to secretly collude with the powerful sanctuaries from another world and launch this invasion war.

At the same time, these powerful sanctuaries from other worlds were actually also outside the Central Continent, wantonly capturing the native life forms of the wizard world and secretly holding blood sacrifices, which greatly enhanced the power of the God of Hunting and other gods.

Naturally, their actions could not be concealed from the other gods of the Thousand Gods Empire who had also ascended to the divine realm.

However, the powerful gods such as the God of Hunting and the God of the Sea chose to strike first and eliminate these opposing gods.

However, their actions were naturally discovered by the ascended god-level powerful beings from the Free Federation who had been keeping an eye on them.

As a result, the two sides launched a great battle in the divine realm. After the infighting, the gods of the Thousand Gods Empire were no match for the god-level strongmen of the Free Federation, and were defeated step by step.

Therefore, they urgently need the sects of the wizarding world to continue to hold blood sacrifices from the wizarding world to enhance their strength.

Soon, the first blood sacrifice began.

In the square, the clergy of the sect that was once high and mighty have now become prisoners. Hundreds of clergy of the lowest legendary level were beheaded, and the blood sacrifice spread to the realm of gods.

This was just the beginning. Soon, in the imperial capital of the Thousand Gods Empire, all the clergymen on the list of sects to be purged were arrested and brought to the square. The blood sacrifices continued for several days and lasted for a whole week.

Millions of heads were beheaded in the imperial capital, and the believers were trembling in fear, not knowing what had happened in the Thousand Gods Empire.

Some believers, because they continued to believe in these gods, were also regarded as fanatics of the sect and were directly sacrificed.

Then, Chapman's order was released from the palace, belatedly.

Looking at the new imperial decree posted on the bulletin board, the people of the Thousand Gods Empire were speechless for a moment.

Many people whose relatives had died were full of resentment towards Chapman.

If his order had been posted earlier, his relatives would have certainly given up their beliefs and would not have lost their lives in vain.

In the palace, Emperor Chapman also felt helpless and aggrieved.

There are not many guards in the palace now who will obey his orders.

This imperial decree was also a secret order from those sects, not to let the imperial decree leave the palace.

It is to enhance the effect of the first blood sacrifice.

In just one week, more than three million clergymen and believers were sacrificed in the imperial capital of the Thousand Gods Empire.

Across the country, arrest operations targeting members of sects on the list of sects to be cleared are also proceeding rapidly.

The power of these sects was almost equivalent to one-third of the strength of the Thousand Gods Empire, but after learning of the death of the gods they believed in, many of the clergy of these sects simply chose to commit suicide.

For these clergymen, losing their faith is even more terrible than losing their lives.

However, faced with the threat to their lives, those who did not want to be sacrificed quickly united together and resisted the people who came to arrest them.

They are called the Godforsaken, meaning people abandoned by the gods.

Both the gods of faith and other gods have abandoned them.

Under the threat of blood sacrifice, the ranks of the Forsaken of God grew rapidly, and in just three days, they swept across the entire Thousand Gods Empire.

However, it was obvious that those sects were more prepared. Long before the first blood sacrifice, they had activated the magic circle covering the Thousand Gods Empire, restricting them from teleporting to other worlds or other places in the wizarding world.

At the border of the Thousand Gods Empire, a large army had already been deployed to suppress the rebellion, with the aim of sacrificing all of these so-called God-forsaken people.

Richard's cultivation in the origin of the wizarding world was only one step away from the late stage of the Holy Domain wizard.

In addition, with the dragon orchid incense and many sanctuary-level magic gems looted from the dragon world, he was successfully promoted to the late stage of sanctuary wizard.

What Richard didn't expect was that as soon as he came out, he got the news of the civil strife in the Thousand Gods Empire.

A part of the Thousand Gods Empire took control of the discourse and took action against some sects whose gods they believed in had died.

Unfortunately, neither the Free Federation nor the Green Alliance believed that this was an opportunity to raid the Thousand Gods Empire.

The ruling faction of the Thousand Gods Empire still has a large number of powerful saints helping them outside the Central Continent, and they are able to use any means at any time to engage in a decisive battle with the Green Alliance and the Free Federation.

The reason why they are not doing so now is, on the one hand, that they do not want to suffer a loss of all their strength, and on the other hand, the ruling party of the Thousand Gods Empire has not yet completely defeated the Forsaken of Gods and sacrificed all of their blood to the gods they believe in.

Richard felt a little uneasy as he consumed the news of the Thousand Gods Empire's blood sacrifice of its believers.

I'm afraid this is the way that the gods believed in by the sects behind those in power absorb the original power of the wizarding world?

By offering a blood sacrifice to the lives of the wizarding world, the trace amount of original power of the wizarding world carried in the bodies of these lives can be sacrificed to the gods.

If this is true, will those sects let the Free Federation and the Green Alliance go?

These people are also native to the wizarding world!

They haven't taken any action yet, so they probably want to gradually erode the strength of the Free Federation and the Green Alliance.

Weaken the two major forces and continuously consume their regenerative power.

Eventually, they completely took down the Free Federation and the Green Alliance and occupied the entire wizarding world.

Richard even knew that the spatial coordinate information of the Free Federation's Ender World could not be concealed.

Hundreds of millions of people retreated at once, and there must be spies planted by the Thousand Gods Empire among them.

In other words, the current Ender World, as well as other worlds where citizens of the Free Federation have retreated, are not safe either.

Richard was slightly startled, but with the Tiger God secretly staying with Margaret and the others, he could take them away from Ender's world at any time, so they should be safe for the time being.

According to his estimation, the Thousand Gods Empire would not attack the Ander World after sacrificing all the Forsaken Gods with blood.

It should be to continuously attack the weak worlds controlled by the Free Federation and further weaken the power of the Free Federation.

Just like boiling a frog in warm water, it consumed the Free Federation's power of resistance.

After figuring this out, Richard tried to communicate with Evans, suggesting that he take this opportunity to completely destroy the Thousand Gods Empire.

"Richard, your suggestion is good, but it is not realistic."

Evans did not accept Richard's advice.

"Some of your ideas are just speculations, without any factual basis. Moreover, the Thousand Gods Empire has colluded with forces that are powerful enough to destroy the Free Federation and the Green Alliance. We have no chance now."

"Escape to Ender's world can buy the Free Federation time to develop. The weak worlds controlled by the Free Federation can be used as pawns to delay time."

Evans expressed his thoughts, leaving Richard stunned for a moment.

Indeed, even if the Free Federation and the Green Alliance joined forces to attack the Thousand Gods Empire, they would ultimately fail.

But is escaping to Ender's world the right way?

There is still a certain gap between Ender's world and the wizarding world, and the Free Federation still has to spend a lot of energy to build Ender's world.

It is indeed a good idea to use the weak world to buy time for the development of the Free Federation in Ender's world.

Anyway, the Free Federation doesn't care about the citizens who retreat to the weak world.

But is this really the case?

Richard knew that if the ruling faction of the Thousand Gods Empire continued to grow stronger and continued to sacrifice the lives of the wizarding world, then the power of the gods believed in by these ruling factions would become even more powerful.

What Evans did was simply to transfer the pressure in the wizarding world to the divine world.

Richard didn't know how powerful the gods of the Free Federation were in the divine world, and who was stronger between them and the gods who ascended from the Thousand Gods Empire.

But he knew that this method was just a temporary solution.

As the power of the ascended gods in the Thousand Gods Empire grows, they will be able to continue to increase their strength and bestow more divine power on the believers in the lower world.

If the Free Federation wants to develop, it also needs to rely on the power of the artifacts in the divine world to suppress the world consciousness of Ender's world.

As one grows stronger while the other shrinks, the gap between the Free Federation and the Thousand Gods Empire will only grow wider, whether in the divine world or in the lower world.

But this time, Evans rejected Richard very firmly.

"Richard, you have to think clearly. I am only the president of the Free Federation. The Free Federation is not decided by me alone."

Evans' tone was somewhat annoyed, "Even if I ask the Saint Domain powerhouses of those families to go to war with the Thousand Gods Empire now, will they listen to me?"

"They will just elect a new president."

Richard had no choice but to give up the idea of ​​getting Evans to support him.

Indeed, Evans is very prestigious in the Free Federation, but that does not mean that he can dominate all the powerful Sanctuary masters in the Free Federation.

Especially when making these powerful saints work for him.

Most people are short-sighted. Faced with life and death in front of them, as well as distant crises, they only care about whether they can survive now.

"I'm sorry Mr. Evans."

Richard apologized to Evans for his misunderstanding and immediately stopped communicating with Evans.

I believe that as the president of the Free Federation, Evans, like me, does not want to see the destruction of the Free Federation.

But as the president, he has more things to consider than Richard who is alone.

Richard was silent for a while before walking out of the manor.

"Mr. Evans, Richard has left the Free City. We can no longer detect his movements."

Lowell hurried into Evans' room and reported to him.

"Don't worry about him. He hasn't signed a contract with the Free Federation anyway, and the Free Federation cannot restrain this Sanctuary wizard."

Evans said casually, but his heart was full of worry.

After leaving the Free City, Richard did not fly in the air in a swaggering manner, but entered an invisible state.

On the ground, many areas of the once prosperous Free Federation are now deserted, with uninhabited cities and villages everywhere.

Even the crops that were cultivated were harvested in advance and taken to the evacuated other worlds and dimensions.

All that was left were large tracts of farmland exposed to the sun and deserted villages.
