The black-robed man snorted.
He appeared to concur with the statement.
âWho do you think sorcerers are? Once weâve refined them, let alone sorcerers, anything can make them perish.â The black-robed man emphasized.
âOf course.â
âNow that youâre aware, whatâs your plan? I need a total of 20,000 people. How many do we have now?â The black-robed man expressed clear frustration.
âIâve done my best to entice individuals from both large and small clans. Currently, there are no more to be found. Iâll check if any clans from farther away have arrived. Do we truly need the blood and bones of 20,000 people? If we canât gather that manyâŠâ
âOf course, we need 20,000 people. Otherwise, how can we obtain enough essence energy?â The black-robed manâs tone and demeanor were far from pleasant.
âLetâs wait a bit longer. If we canât assemble enough people, there are still the Huang clansmen. If the Huang clansmen are depleted, we can gradually recruit more. It would be a shame if we canât cultivate them!â The Huang Clanâs Tribe Chief suggested.
The black-robed man appeared to be in a better mood.
After all, the issue had been addressed.
There were undoubtedly 20,000 people at the mountainâs base, including the Huang clansmen.
After a brief discussion, they inspected the pool before departing hastily.
Once they leftâŠ
Gu Chaoyan descended from the tree and approached the pond.
The frigid air emanated from this pool.
But why was it so cold here?
The closer she got, the more Gu Chaoyan sensed that something was amiss with the pool. Not only was it cold, but it also reeked of blood.
âRun!
They have to run!
âIf we donât escape, those clansmen will die here.â
That was the realization Gu Chaoyan had after uncovering what was happening.
The sorcerer wore a grave expression. He sensed that something was amiss, explaining why nothing seemed right in this world.
âLetâs head back first,â the sorcerer advised.
The black-robed man had already detected someoneâs presence earlier. While the Huang Clanâs Tribe Chief believed it was his daughter, it could expose the truth. Their situation would become perilous if the truth surfaced.
The three of them hurriedly retraced their steps.
Upon their return to the mountainâs base, Adams remained in a state of shock.
In this uncivilized world, where concerns revolved around sustenance, health, and the well-being of clansmen, the Huang Clanâs ordeal had thrust him abruptly into an alien reality. He had yet to regain his composure.
âIf my guess is correct, the Huang Clanâs Tribe Chief and that black-robed man are utilizing that pool to cultivate some forbidden power. To facilitate the cultivation, they require human bones and blood as sacrifices. Besides the chilling cold emanating from the pool, thereâs also the unmistakable stench of blood. I fear many missing clansmen have been thrown into that pool.â
âThe Huang Clanâs Tribe Chief has become somewhat deranged over this matter. He didnât hesitate to offer up the Huang Clan. Every day we linger here increases the danger.â
âWe need to devise a plan to escape as soon as possible,â Gu Chaoyan proposed.
âOf course,â affirmed the sorcerer.
The situation appeared more intricate than he had initially perceived.
While the three of them were engrossed in conversation, a sudden commotion arose at the mountainâs base.
âGary, go check whatâs happening!â Gu Chaoyan urged, concerned that their recent actions might lead to discovery.
Gary hastily departed.
Shortly afterward, he returned in a hurry.
