It had been half a year since the appearance of the cold north wind.
The snow and ice should have melted a long time ago, and everything in the world should have been revived.
But now, the ice had frozen the entire world. Every single moment, a large number of creatures in the Eastsource Realm had perished.
What was going on? Could it be that someone in the Eastern Origin Realm had violated the might of the heavens and caused the wrath of the gods, thereby bringing about the punishment of a calamity?
It was a common saying in every region of the Eastern Origin Realm.
Initially, they were just ordinary civilians who had no other choice but to blindly offer sacrifices to the gods, praying and begging for the forgiveness of God to give all living beings in the Eastern Origin Realm a chance to live.
Following that, another set of martial dao Sect were added to the mix and a large scale Heaven's Sacrifice Ceremony was held.
However, it did not seem to have any effect. The cold wind that was howling throughout the day became even colder, as if it was a blade that wanted to kill all the Eastern Source Realm beings. The snowflakes that fell from the sky became denser, as if they wanted to use the pure white snow to bury them!
Within the Freezing Sky Clan Main Hall.
The Sect leaders who were ranked in the top ten of the Eastern Origin Stage arrived together, wanting to come up with a solution.
"Sect Master Sun, Ancestral Envoy Lin Zong, the natural disaster this time was definitely caused by the wrath of our Gods, I'm afraid someone in the Eastern Origin Realm had unwittingly touched upon a taboo. I hope that Freezing Sky Sect can take the lead and lead the Eastern Origin Realm to conduct a grand sky-offering ceremony to seek forgiveness of our gods."
A Fourth Level of Elemental Emperor Stage warrior said. He was a Master from the Golden Wood Sect, named Zhou Xin.
"Master Zhou's words are reasonable. Sect Master Sun, right now, our Freezing Sky Sect is the strongest power in the Eastern Origin Realm. Now, you must step forward!" Another master of the Sect said while looking at Sun Wuji.
"Hmph, what do you mean by 'offending the gods'? That's just a bunch of nonsense! Someone is obviously causing trouble in the dark. What we should do now is to uncover the identity of the culprit, and gather all the power of the Dongyuan Realm and exterminate him!" The Master of Thunder Sword Sect, Lei Zhen, obviously did not have a good temper. He was quite irritable, and when he heard the words of the priest, he was unable to contain his anger.
Because of this serious matter, the master of Thunder Sword Sect had personally stepped in. He was the senior brother of the Thunder Sword Emperor, and at the same time, the father of Lei Tao!
"Master Lei, since you're so sure that someone was behind this, do you have any evidence? If there is no evidence, I advise you not to spout nonsense. Do you know how many lives would be lost to the cold every time the large-scale sacrifice was delayed? Can your Thunder Sword Sect bear this responsibility? " The Golden Wood Sect Master Zhou Xin and Lei Zhen's opinions were divided as they fought against each other.
"I also feel that what Master Zhou said is reasonable. In this situation where there is no other way, we can only do it. The sacrifice must be carried out, the larger the better, in order for the angry god to feel the repentance of our East Origin Realm cultivators." Another person spoke out in support of Zhou Xin.
"Humph, what you're doing is not only meaningless, but also a large-scale sacrifice. The loss of resources must be huge! Right now, all of us in the Eastern Origin Realm are starving. What you're doing is adding fuel to the fire!" Even though there were many people who supported Zhou Xin, Lei Zhen still persisted in his opinion.
"Lei Zhen, the fact that your Thunder Sword Sect isn't willing to conduct the sacrifice together is your problem. We won't force you!" Zhou Xin said.
"Everyone, this is for the sake of the East Origin Stage cultivators. Don't hurt our friendship. We have to stand together to overcome this obstacle." His name was He Qin, the spectator of the Qing Shan Taoist Monastery.
This Qing Shan Taoist Monastery had never revealed itself before, but in the dark, it held an extremely powerful strength, not weaker than Thunder Sword Sect. Only after half a year did it gradually reveal itself, causing all the cultivators of the Eastern Origin Realm to have a whole new level of respect for it.
After He Qin opened his mouth, Lei Zhen and the others had also temporarily stopped quarreling. After that, He Qin looked at Sun Wuji and said, "Sect Master Sun, right now, all of us in the Eastern Origin Realm follow our Freezing Sky Sect. At this time, I hope that Sect Master Sun can come up with an idea."
Sun Wuji's expression turned serious as he nodded his head and said, "Everyone, the matter of the sacrificial offering is indeed not a good choice. Right now, the citizens are starving and unable to take out any excess rations, thus, I hope that all the Master present will put aside their differences and put aside their selfish thoughts, using all of their strength to help the suffering citizens through this crisis, while searching for the reason for this natural disaster!"
In fact, everyone knew that although this disaster was scary, if all the martial forces in the East Origin Stage could work together, the situation wouldn't be as bad as it was now.
Many of the transcendent powers all wanted to protect themselves. While they appeared nervous, their attitude was rather perfunctory. They all wanted to conserve their strength and didn't truly want to resolve this matter.
After Sun Wuji finished speaking, his eyes flashed, and he looked towards Lin Hao who had been sitting by the side without uttering a word, and asked: "I wonder if this Ancestral Envoy Lin Zong also intends to do the same?"
Everyone present clearly knew Lin Hao's position in the Freezing Sky Sect; his words could truly represent the true Freezing Sky Sect.
Of course, He Qin had first asked him his thoughts, and after Sun Wuji made his stance, he came to Lin Hao to ask about it, making it clear that he did not have good intentions, and wanted to deliberately create conflict between Sun Wuji and Lin Hao!
How could Lin Hao not see through He Qin's thoughts?
If a crack appeared between him and Sun Wuji, it would definitely cause chaos within the Freezing Sky Sect, and at that time, the Qing Shan Taoist Monastery that He Qin represented would have the chance to replace his position in the Freezing Sky Sect and become the number one power in the Eastern Origin Realm!
"Fellow Daoist He, just now, the words of our Freezing Sky Sect's Sect Master Sun represented the thoughts of everyone in our Freezing Sky Sect. I naturally supported the Sect Master Sun's decision. The matter of the offering, it's not appropriate to proceed." Lin Hao's expression was calm as he spoke.
"Ancestral Envoy Lin Zong, you are the number one Heaven's Pride in the history of our Eastern Origin Realm, you must have your own thoughts. At this time, I feel that you can speak of any thoughts you have, and do not have too many concerns. After all, this is all to ensure that all the living beings in our Eastern Origin Realm can survive through this disaster. He Qin still did not give up, as he wanted to distance himself from Lin Hao.
Lin Hao shook his head, and then said: "I have already said, Sect Master Sun's point of view, is my opinion. Our Freezing Sky Sect has already discussed this matter before, I actually want to know what Taoist He's opinion on this matter is."
Seeing that his trick had failed, He Qin could only give up. Since Lin Hao had asked him this, he swept his gaze across the entire audience, then slowly said: "My Qing Shan Taoist Monastery believes that the matter of the sacrifice is something that needs to be done, only by making the gods calm their anger, can the disaster to end. If we are pious, the gods might descend to the lagoon, allowing us to have greater hope in the Eastern Origin Stage!"
