“What’s going on?”

“High priest, we don’t know who these two are. They said that they were once members of the Tushan family, and their ancestors left the tribe for survival. Now, they are back to offer sacrifices to the Qingshan Great G.o.d. I think that they are spouting nonsense and had just been planning to kill them,” Tushan Mang replied respectfully.

Hearing that, Tushan Cangyue’s expression remained unchanging.

“Perhaps, they were really the Tushan family’s people. After all, after the great calamity that befell our family, many left to live in the outside world. Besides, other than the Tushan family, we can’t rule out the possibility that other places also believe in the G.o.d of Great Green Mountain.”

Her calm voice slowly sounded.

Hearing this, Chen Zongtian and Yuan Daosheng both revealed surprised smiles.

“Yes, yes, yes, the High Priest is right. We are truly the people of the Tushan family who fled from the disaster. Now, we have received the guidance of our ancestors, and we have returned to wors.h.i.+p the Qingshan Great G.o.d. Although we have been living outside the tribe for a long time, our faith in the Qingshan Great G.o.d has never stopped. We came here to express our feelings and to strengthen our faith. Please grant our wish, High Priest,” Chen Zongtian said sincerely.

It was as if he really regarded himself as a devout believer of the Qingshan Great G.o.d.

Tushan Cangyue didn’t believe his nonsense, but she had her plans and was thus very cooperative.

“I see. Since you are members of the Tushan family who have been living in the outside world, it is good that you want to come and offer sacrifices to the Qingshan Great G.o.d. However, according to the rules and traditions of the Tushan family, whenever someone offers sacrifices to G.o.d, they have to offer precious treasures as sacrifices. Since you’ve come here to offer sacrifices to the Qingshan Great G.o.d, you must have made preparations. Please show me the offering you have prepared. If you can get my approval, you can naturally go to the temple to wors.h.i.+p the Qingshan Great G.o.d. However, if the sacrifice doesn’t meet the requirements, it’ll be blasphemy against the Great G.o.d. At that time, even I won’t be able to bear the responsibility. Do you understand?”

Tushan Cangyue said calmly.

What? Sacrifice?

Hearing this, Chen Zongtian’s heart skipped a beat.

He had only said it casually as an excuse to go to the temple. How could he sincerely offer sacrifices to the Qingshan Great G.o.d?

However, facing Tushan Cangyue’s obstruction, if they wanted to go to the temple on Thunder Nether Mountain, they had to offer treasures.

Thinking of this, Chen Zongtian could only grit his teeth and take out a jade box.

As a grave robber, he naturally had no lack of treasures.

Whoos.h.!.+

When he opened the jade box, a scorching aura like the Sun surged out. There were also bursts of resplendent light blooming.

Taking a closer look, there was a crimson lotus flower that was glowing with flames in the jade box.

“The Geocentric Fire Lotus?”

While Tushan Cangyue was looking at it, a surprised voice suddenly came from behind her.

Xie Wuyou had followed the aura of the treasure and arrived here.

At this moment, his eyes were fixed on the red lotus flower in the jade box, and his eyes revealed a strong desire.

Xie Wuyou was very sensitive to treasures. Therefore, the moment Chen Zongtian took out the Geocentric Fire Lotus, he knew the origin of this item.

“What is the Geocentric Fire Lotus?” Tushan Mang asked curiously.

“Uh, the so-called Geocentric Fire Lotus is a kind of natural spiritual essence that grows deep underground, nurtured by the essence of the geocentric fire. It is a rare Lesser G.o.d-level treasure in the world, especially beneficial for fire attribute cultivators. In addition, it is said that this Geocentric Fire Lotus can also help living beings forge a fire attribute spiritual body. It is extremely rare. Something like this can only be obtained when the earth trembles or when one goes deep into the underground magma. It only grows an inch every thousand years,” Xie Wuyou explained patiently.

Oh? It was so rare?

Hearing Xie Wuyou’s words, Tushan Mang was greatly shocked.

Judging from the size of the Geocentric Fire Lotus before them, and given the saying that it grew an inch every thousand years, it was at least thirty thousand years old now. It was definitely a rare treasure that could only be found by chance.

“If it is used as an offering, the Qingshan Great G.o.d should like it…” Tushan Mang muttered.

His eyes were filled with yearning.

Looking at their expressions, Chen Zongtian was very proud.

The Geocentric Fire Lotus could be considered precious even among the many treasures he had. If it wasn’t for the fact that he wanted to enter the temple to rescue Chen Changqing, he would never have taken it out.

“High Priest, I wonder if this Geocentric Fire Lotus can meet the requirements of offering to the Great G.o.d?”

“Of course.”

“Then we can go to the temple now and offer sacrifices to the Qingshan Great G.o.d?”

As he spoke, Chen Zongtian was ready to step into the tribe.

However, just as he was about to move, Tushan Mang raised his hand and slashed at his feet. The powerful force caused a huge ravine to appear on the ground.

Chen Zongtian was so frightened that he immediately stopped in his tracks. At the same time, his expression darkened.

“High Priest, we have already offered a treasure as a sacrifice according to your request, and we have also obtained your approval. By doing this, are you trying to stop me?”

Chen Zongtian coldly snorted.

In response, Tushan Cangyue shook her head.

“No. As long as one is a member of the Tushan family and has a devout faith in the Qingshan Great G.o.d, we will treat everyone equally.”

“Then what do you mean by this?”

He pointed at the ravine under his feet, then at Tushan Mang, who was standing opposite him with a sword. His face was filled with dissatisfaction.

“It’s like this… I forgot to tell you just now, but according to the rules and tradition of the Tushan family, when our people offer sacrifices to the Qingshan Great G.o.d for the first time, besides offering treasures, we also have to offer our lifespan.”

“The Tushan family has a firm and devout belief in the G.o.d of Great Green Mountain. Usually, when our people offer sacrifices to the G.o.d of Great Green Mountain for the first time, they will offer five hundred years of their lives to show their devout belief. Therefore, if you insist on offering sacrifices to the Qingshan Great G.o.d, besides this Geocentric Fire Lotus, you must also offer at least five hundred years of your life. If you agree, you can go and wors.h.i.+p the Great G.o.d,” Tushan Cangyue said nonchalantly.

What? They even had to sacrifice 500 years of their lifespan?

Chen Zongtian’s expression darkened when he heard this. He clenched his fists tightly and his deep eyes were filled with anger.

He knew that Tushan Cangyue was surely making things difficult for them.

Even Yuan Daosheng, who was standing at the side, furrowed his brows as a fierce glint flashed in the depths of his eyes.

“High Priest, we are all from the Tushan family, so there’s no need to be so rigid, right?” He said in a deep voice.

However, Tushan Cangyue’s face didn’t change at all when she heard the fierce tone in Yuan Daosheng’s words. She was as cold as ever.

“This is the tradition of the Tushan family and the rule of the temple. It’s the same for everyone. If you’re not going to sincerely wors.h.i.+p the Qingshan Great G.o.d, please leave. Don’t even think about making trouble in the Tushan family. Even if you really are our people, you have to follow the rules. Anyone who disobeys the rules will be punished by G.o.d.”

Tushan Cangyue’s tone became colder and colder.

“Tushan Mang, you stay here and guard. If they dare to mess around, kill them. The Tushan family doesn’t want people without faith.”

“Yes!

II

After saying that, Tushan Cangyue couldn’t care less about Chen Zongtian and Yuan Daosheng’s reactions. She walked straight into the tribe.

At the same time, to warn the two, Tushan Mang waved his hand and took out the undead knight that Lin Wudao had given him, placing it heavily in front of the tribe’s gates.

“A Divine Illumination realm puppet?”

Seeing the sudden appearance of the undead knight and sensing the murderous aura it emanated, Yuan Daosheng’s expression changed slightly.

At this moment, he felt threatened by the undead knight.

“Be careful, this is a Divine Illumination realm puppet. According to my senses, this puppet’s combat power is no weaker than the peak of the Divine Illumination realm. It’s even comparable to the perfection stage of the Divine Illumination realm. The Mountain Mausoleum Area is very strange. We can only display the strength of the perfection stage in the Divine Illumination realm. If we really make a big scene, I’m afraid it won’t be easy to end. Moreover, I guess that the Leishan tribe definitely has more than one such puppet. It is best to be careful.”

Yuan Daosheng sent a voice transmission to Chen Zongtian.

Hmm? A puppet that was comparable to a perfection-stage Divine Illumination realm cultivator?

Chen Zongtian’s heart trembled.

“Sir, should we still go to the temple?”

“That depends on you. If you want to save Chen Changqing and the others, we’ll go. If you don’t, we can just turn around and leave.”

“This…”

Hearing this, Chen Zongtian fell into a dilemma.

According to the rules stated by Tushan Cangyue, if they wanted to go to the temple, they had to give up five hundred years of their lifespan, which he was extremely unwilling to do. He did not want to sacrifice his lifespan to a demonic G.o.d for nothing and not get any benefits at all.

However, Chen Changqing had to be saved.

After some hesitation, he ultimately compromised.

“Sir, since we’re already here, let’s go to the temple to take a look. As for the Geocentric Fire Lotus and the five hundred years of lifespan, let’s just treat it as something we’ve fed to dogs.”

Chen Zongtian clenched his fists and sighed.

Regarding this, Yuan Daosheng didn’t say anything. He just quietly followed and stepped into the Leishan tribe.

Under Tushan Mang’s lead, they arrived at the divine temple on Thunder Nether Mountain..
