The others looked at each other, not understanding what this meant.
However, Qin Xuan understood.
This was a roundabout way of expressing dissatisfaction with the nuo god!
This elder might know something.
"Does that elder know how the Sect forces are distributed nearby?"
This was what Qin Xuan was most eager to know.
"As for the distribution of forces, the largest one nearby is the Corpse Gu Sect. They mainly refine Gu worms, but ever since the nuo god came here, they don't enter the mountains much anymore."
Corpse Gu Sect?
Hearing this, Qin Xuan roughly understood.
This should just be a small Sect, not a very large one.
"Then, besides the Corpse Gu Sect, are there any larger Sects?"
To use a teleportation formation, only a powerful Sect could provide one.
Only the most powerful Sect nearby might have a teleportation formation.
"Larger? The largest, when you count them, should be Nuoshen Palace."
Nuoshen Palace!
Hearing this name, the other few immediately became as silent as cicadas in winter, not daring to make a sound.
Qin Xuan's heart stirred.
It seems that Nuoshen Palace and the nuo god are inextricably linked.
A moment later, Qin Xuan took a deep breath, then raised his head.
"Thank you for your guidance, elder!"
Listening to Qin Xuan, the elder smiled and nodded, handing Qin Xuan a tattered map.
"With this, you will be much more convenient."
Taking the map, and roughly looking it over, Qin Xuan also nodded in satisfaction.
This thing was of no small help to him; with it, he at least knew how to get to Nuoshen Palace.
Just as Qin Xuan was about to continue asking questions, everyone present suddenly stirred in unison.
"The Witch has arrived!"
Everyone immediately looked up in unison.
Qin Xuan also followed their gaze.
He saw a red-clothed woman with her face veiled walking from the village entrance, carrying a lantern in her hand, her steps light as she approached.
"She's a Cultivator!"
Han Ye reminded Qin Xuan, and Qin Xuan also nodded.
Not only is she a Cultivator, she's also a Cultivator of the Dan Xuan Realm!
But she's a Cultivator of the Dan Xuan Realm, why would she come to be a Witch?
Qin Xuan didn't know what she was planning.
But in his opinion, this Witch might not be a good person.
A moment later, the Witch walked over, followed by several guards, one of whom was Wang Er, whose teeth Qin Xuan had knocked out with a slap earlier.
Following behind the Witch now, Wang Er was arrogant and overbearing.
"Bah, look at his smug face. If he hadn't deceived the Witch, how could the Witch let him be so arrogant!"
Listening to this, Qin Xuan, who was beside him, sneered.
Deceived?
Clearly, this Wang Er was acting on the Witch's instructions.
These fools still thought the Witch was deceived.
Wang Er clearly owed everything to this Witch.
Thus, all his actions were naturally inseparable from the Witch.
The Witch walked over, her gaze sweeping over everyone, finally settling on Qin Xuan.
She stared at Qin Xuan coldly for a moment, then withdrew her gaze.
"Are the tributes all prepared?"
Hearing this, everyone present stood up and bowed respectfully.
"Witch, the items have long been prepared, just waiting for the nuo god to enjoy them!"
Hearing that the tributes were ready, the Witch's expression improved slightly.
"Then offer the sacrifices!"
Saying this, the Witch walked to the nuo god statue, and placed a large cauldron in front of it.
A moment later, several young girls came forward and poured blood into the large cauldron.
When the large cauldron was filled with blood, the Witch lit several incense sticks and directly inserted them into the blood in the large cauldron.
Under everyone's watchful eyes, these incense sticks actually stood upright in the blood.
"How amazing!"
Mu Xuan said in surprise, and then the Witch looked down.
"Bring all your sacrifices and offer them to the nuo god."
Listening to the Witch's words, everyone present no longer hesitated, and came forward one after another to place blood and flesh in front of the nuo god statue.
After a while, as smoke rose, soon wisps of incense smoke drifted in front of the nuo god statue.
"Oh, something's happening!"
Han Ye suddenly spoke, and Qin Xuan also looked up.
The faceless face of the nuo god statue began to writhe continuously, as if it had come alive.
"This!"
Looking at the nuo god statue, Qin Xuan was stunned with surprise.
A moment later, this nuo god statue, originally made of stone, actually seemed to come alive, becoming flesh and blood.
Everyone present clearly noticed this as well; they prostrated themselves on the ground, constantly kowtowing and fanatically worshipping the statue.
Qin Xuan, however, stood firm like a mountain, staring intently at the statue.
At the foot of the statue, the woman scanned her surroundings and met Qin Xuan's gaze.
Seeing Qin Xuan unmoved, her eyes became incredibly cold.
"Hmph, how dare an Evil Path act presumptuously before me!"
Qin Xuan raised his head and looked forward, staring intently at the nuo god.
The nuo god above was moving its face.
Then, the nuo god took a deep breath, and the surrounding incense smoke was immediately absorbed into his body.
The nuo god's face kept moving, and then, the flesh and blood below turned into streams of blood Qi, surging towards the nuo god.
Dense blood Qi continuously surged into the nuo god's body, and a moment later, the blood in the large cauldron in front of the Witch seemed to boil.
"Creak!"
The flesh and blood flew into the nuo god's mouth, and the nuo god chewed the flesh and blood loudly, blood flowing directly from the statue onto the ground.
"This thing really came alive?"
Qin Xuan grinned and shook his head slightly.
The nuo god statue kept chewing the flesh and blood, and soon the flesh and blood below were completely eaten!
At this moment, the incense in the large cauldron had completely turned into ashes and merged into the large cauldron.
"Alright, everyone, get up. The nuo god has tasted your sacrifices, but the nuo god is very displeased this time."
The Witch snorted coldly, giving Qin Xuan a meaningful glare.
As the Witch's voice fell, two lines of bloody tears flowed down the nuo god statue behind her.
Everyone stirred in unison.
Qin Xuan, however, remained unmoved.
A moment later, the Witch coldly scanned her surroundings.
"This, why is this? These are the freshest sacrifices, how could he be displeased? We spent a lot of effort collecting these sacrifices, why is the nuo god displeased?"
Several hot-blooded youths stood up and hastily asked.
The Witch snorted coldly.
"The nuo god's displeasure naturally has a reason, and soon you will know why the nuo god is angry."
As the Witch spoke, she tapped her fingertip on the large cauldron.
The large cauldron, which had already quieted down, immediately began to boil.
A moment later, the large cauldron became calm again, and a human face emerged from it.
"This is the culprit for the nuo god's dissatisfaction this time, it's him!"
Saying this, the Witch pointed at Qin Xuan.
"This, this is impossible!"
Everyone present was immediately stunned and lost their composure, completely unprepared for Qin Xuan to be the culprit.
"This, Witch, have you made a mistake?"
