Chapter 395: Chapter 269: Ten Thousand Arrows Fired! Killing Wu Chang!

Three Gods Valley housed over thirty thousand people, surpassing Yanshou Pure Land in scale.

However, Three Gods Valley was neither a large Pure Land nor a Grotto Heaven Blessed Land.

The reason it could ward off evils was that there were three Venerates "Divine Spirits" here!

The Great Divine Venerable was the god of this river, born from the essence of the river water, wielding the Divine Bow.

The Left Venerate was the Mountain and Forest God, resembling a monkey and wielding a long-handled greatsword.

The Right Venerate was the Sky Dominator, resembling a giant eagle, commanding the skies.

With the protection of these three gods, all kinds of evils were deterred, and both inside and outside the valley, peace was maintained.

The people of the Human Clan in this place worshiped these three gods as the supreme, on par with heaven and earth, above even their parents.

"We dwell here, protected by the three gods, thriving and proliferating, passing down through generations, our descendants flourishing."

"Today is the fifteenth, we offer six boys and six girls to the three gods, praying only for favorable winds and rain, and bountiful harvests!"

"May our Three Gods Valley endure forever, may the Venerates remain, may evils not invade, may we enjoy peace."

"Offer the sacrifice!"

The man leading them was about fifty years old, robust with dark, muscular skin.

He possessed the peak Qi Mechanism of the Refining Essence Realm.

He was also the only one from the Refining Essence Realm in the Three Gods Valley!

This man was the leader of the Human Clan of Three Gods Valley!

With a grand wave of his hand,

Twelve people stepped forward, holding choppers.

They were the fathers of these twelve boys and girls.

The choppers fell in unison, and the twelve ropes tied to the riverbank bamboo raft snapped instantly!

Suddenly, these twelve people, throwing down their choppers, cried out in excitement, shouting: "Offer the sacrifice!"

"Offer the sacrifice!"

"Offer the sacrifice!"

"Offer the sacrifice!"

The people of Three Gods Valley shouted loudly in unison.

Suddenly, that Martial Artist of the Refining Essence Realm picked up a huge incense burner and placed it by the river.

The valley’s people, lined up in rows with lit incense in their hands, approached one after another to place it in the incense burner.

The incense was flourishing, the smoke swirling and billowing upward.

The thick confounding smoke of incense gathered into what resembled a white cloud, immediately forming a Bai Long, rolling towards the riverbank covering the bamboo raft.

Above the river, the waves were tumultuous, constantly shifting.

The bamboo raft was enveloped under the white smoke.

The people cheered ecstatically!

With incense gathering around!

It proved that the three gods were extremely pleased with these twelve boys and girls!

The river’s waves surged, tossing the raft up and down, but the twelve boys and girls on it sat steadily atop it.

However, facing such a scene, a girl finally couldn’t hold back her tears.

"Daddy..."

She couldn’t help crying out loud, saying, "I want to go home...I miss home..."

"Xiao Yun, don’t speak nonsense, if the Venerate gets angry later, he won’t want you."

At this moment, a slightly older boy reached out to pull her down, covering her mouth, and said, "We are here to serve the Venerate, what a great honor, we’ve waited so many years, finally it’s our family’s turn... this year our parents even get an extra bag of grain..."

"The Venerate is coming soon!"

Another girl, blinking, whispered quietly, "My mother says we’re not here to serve the Venerate, we’re to be eaten by the Venerate, but after we are eaten, everyone else can live well."

Another child scolded, "Nonsense! Disrespect towards the Venerate, your mother will be struck by lightning!"

——

Outside Three Gods Valley, on both banks of the river.

The incense was thriving, people continuously offered incense.

Yet, some women, unable to bear parting from their children, sobbed quietly by the side.

Seeing this, a husband harshly slapped one.

"Offered to the Venerate, why are you crying?"

The man angrily said, "What a great honor? Such a significant event, and your crying spoils it, making it unlucky..."

The woman, holding her cheek, tears reddening her eyes, wept, "Others feel sad even just marrying off a daughter, let alone my Yun’er going somewhere she’ll never be seen again..."

"Today it’s finally our family’s turn to offer the sacrifice, once we’ve offered Yun’er this time, our family won’t have to for decades."

The man, angered, said, "You can bear as many as you want, thinking about offering to the Venerate, there won’t be another chance for us... only hope to live longer, maybe in the future, it might be the grandchildren’s turn!"

"Ahai, what are you still waiting for? Today is your family’s day to offer the sacrifice, such a joyous occasion?"

Just then, that leader of the Refining Essence Realm waved and called out, "The Venerate has arrived, come forth to pay respects, lingering on the side, later the Venerate might think you’re unwilling to offer the sacrifice, and if next year’s harvest fails, I’ll chop you down with one slice!"

"He’s coming... He’s coming..."

The man quickly jogged over, meticulously adjusting the red silk on his body.

The sky suddenly darkened.

The people all looked up, only to see in the sky,

between the clouds, a giant eagle spreading its wings.

Its wings spread over the valley, covering the evening’s twilight.

As if obscuring the sun, instantly darkening the skies.

Then on the other side of the river, among the mountains and forests, a giant monkey emerged.

About five meters tall, its body covered in black fur, its arms longer than its knees, holding a long-handled greatsword.

Its eyes were deep, filled with a bloody red hue, its Qi Mechanism strong and ferocious to the extreme.

Also seen above the great river, the waves rose tumultuously, lifting the bamboo raft up to ten meters high.

The smoke of incense swirled around, within it seemingly appearing an elderly man with a kindly expression and an aura of a sage.

Despite his old age, he was tall and robust.

Holding a long bow and carrying a quiver on his back.

In his eyes, there was a hint of admiration.

The offering today was of good quality, tender and delicious, full of spirit.

Together with the rich incense covering these twelve boys and girls, it was even more nourishing.

One bite, not only delicious, but also highly nutritious.
