Chapter 1770 – Circular Ball of Light

　　Xu Yang gently shook his head.

　　”Let’s talk about this matter later, let’s first solve the trouble at hand.

　　The two of you keep a close eye on the martial artists following around those babies, watching their every movement carefully.

　　If my guess is correct, these people should be fundamentally different from the martial artists wearing clothes like ours.

　　Not only in the level of honor of their status, but the cultivation strength they possess.

　　Obviously much more powerful than the martial artists within this city-state.

　　What’s more, I discovered through observation that the martial aura flowing within these cloaked martial artists was significantly different from the normal martial artists’ cultivation system.

　　Perhaps the true identity of these people is where the secret lies that is worthy of our in-depth research.

　　Perhaps it can bring us some unexpected surprises.”

　　It was obvious that Xu Yang had already made some special identity associations with these mysterious martial artists in cloaks, the operators who were about to perform the Soul Sacrifice Ceremony.

　　In other words, these people had already been treated by Xu Yang as the same type of existence as that Heavenly Sect Female Slayer.

　　This was because they had a lot of behaviors and habits that really had too much in common.

　　Moreover, according to Xu Yang’s own judgment, the average strength of these cloaked mysterious martial artists was already close to the Spirit Void Realm, definitely a force not to be underestimated.

　　According to Xu Yang’s trio’s observation, the entire large center square was divided into two parts.

　　The area that possessed a stone tablet sealing formation should be the main venue where the Soul Sacrifice Ceremony would take place, while the other side of the field control area that was also heavily guarded by soldiers.

　　At this moment, some powerful martial artists had also started to create a different kind of formation with extremely domineering and evil attributes.

　　According to Xu Yang’s guess, it should be to deal with those infants who failed to sacrifice their souls.

　　I’m afraid that it was to utilize the power of this terrifying formation to dispose of all those babies that supposedly had no significance of survival.

　　”See?

　　That other area is the core battlefield that we will be acting on later, once they intend to dispose of those babies in an alternative way, you two will watch my instructions to act, make sure to stop their plot, and if necessary, you can kill all those guys in cloaks.”

　　After receiving Xu Yang’s order, Long Kun and Qing Ya nodded their heads in agreement, and then silently entered a state of readiness, although all three of them did not have any release of breath, but that their eyes became so stern.

　　If there was really an unpleasant situation, these three people would strike at the same time, and would set off a wave that would shock the entire city-state.

　　Not long after, a powerful middle-aged man clad in silver robes suddenly appeared, holding an extremely special energy crystal in his hand.

　　It appeared to be a special magic weapon for this Soul Sacrifice Ceremony, with the existence of this round ball of light, it was able to well test out the innate soul strength that these children possessed, which was also known as the talent level.

　　”The exciting moment will soon arrive, the people of Sacred Soul City use your most enthusiastic cheers to join together in anticipation of the descent of the one-in-a-million Heaven’s Pride.

　　This seat will represent the Emperor’s will to bestow blessings on the Pride of Heaven.”

　　This intermediary stood in the very center of the high platform of the Soul Sacrifice Ceremony, and after issuing such a voice, it was immediately received by the entire city.

　　Millions of people cheered wildly as an embrace.

　　In the process of this sound wave being transmitted, the middle-aged man finally struck out a powerful martial aura, completely igniting this crystal in his hand, and then the light emanating from within this crystal shot into the square spell formation around the square in front of him, immediately igniting the edges of the spell formation.

　　All the power in this array of every area crazy wandering, and finally a little bit of convergence to the center of the huge monument, slowly ignited the monument in every inscription, exudes an incomparably bright dazzling light, when the entire huge monument is completely covered by this kind of light, means that the soul sacrifice ceremony finally began.

　　The first hundreds of babies within the square formation that were enveloped in this light simultaneously let out cries.

　　It didn’t look like they had endured much pain, at least under Xu Yang’s observation, these children’s body structures and life forms hadn’t been devastated.

　　They were more frightened by this intense descent of light.

　　After the first entire batch of hundreds of infants had received the baptism of light, a point of light coalesced at the brow of each child, most of them white, with a few flashing out green.

　　Other than that there was no third form that appeared.

　　The middle-aged man’s face was filled with disappointment as he gently shook his head and waved his hand, then a large number of martial artists around him teleported these children to another blank area of the square, waiting for the subsequent orders to appear.

　　At the same time, a new batch of one hundred children were sent up to the Soul Sacrifice Platform to receive a new round of light baptism.

　　This time Xu Yang distinctly and clearly observed that amongst the hundred infants, two children with blue points of light had appeared.

　　And as far as Xu Yang’s observation revealed, the martial arts talent possessed by those children with blue points of light was indeed much stronger than the children with white and green points of light.

　　”So that’s how it is.

　　This is indeed a formation that can test the martial arts talent possessed by these children.”

　　Xu Yang muttered in this manner, and the scene he saw next seemed to just confirm his judgment, the children with blue light points were personally held in the arms of those mysterious martial artists in cloaks.

　　The remaining children with white and green points of light, like the previous batch of testers, were all transferred to the other side of the square.

　　Judging from the behavior of the women trailing the children, the children who were sent to the other side and didn’t have strong enough talents were equivalent to outcasts, and were supposed to be the bitter existences to be sacrificed.

　　”Holy shit, boss.

　　Should it be so outrageous?

　　I also found out that only the children who gained the quality of blue light points were able to be taken care of in a special way.

　　Those other babies were like being thrown away like garbage, all sent to the other side.

　　And the spell formation being polished on the other side of the square is far more terrifying than the soul sacrifice formation on this side, it shouldn’t be about to burn those children who don’t have strong enough talent on the spot, right?”

　　Qing Ya, who was on the other side, snorted coldly and opened her mouth to respond.

　　”It’s just as you imagined, the children who weren’t chosen are trash in the eyes of these towering martial artists.

　　After all, these children are, in the end, the bloodline born from the women of the Bibi Empire, and if they are allowed to continue growing, they will become a hidden danger to the Empire in a few decades.

　　That’s why they didn’t pity the lives of these children in the slightest, sacrificing them on the spot as potential threats and trash that shouldn’t live!”

　　After hearing such a reply, Long Kun seemed to be somewhat unable to hold back as he clenched into his fists.
