Chapter 859: Chapter 858: Blood Sacrifice of the Demon Cultivator

Yusuf Zuck originally thought that after he had recruited Drake Murphy, his plan would quickly be implemented, and his team would rapidly grow stronger.

However, seven or eight days after Drake Murphy left, there was no sign of the seven Protectors coming over. Drake Murphy seemed to have vanished from the face of the earth, out of contact and without any news.

Yusuf Zuck didn’t know what had gone wrong, nor did he know whether the fact that Drake Murphy had become his demon slave had been discovered. Therefore, over these past seven or eight days, his heart had grown increasingly heavy.

The situation in Jizhou City was very calm. The Green Emperor made no moves, and the vast Cangmang Mountain in the south had been occupied by foreign Earth Immortals. Ephraim Rocha brought over a thousand of his followers to settle in Jizhou City, and many houses near the Zhou family residence were bought for the Demon Cultivators to live in.

Furthermore, starting two days ago, Yusuf Zuck’s right eyelid began to twitch uncontrollably, and it had continued to do so for two days straight.

An old saying goes, "Left eyelid twitching brings wealth; right eyelid twitching brings calamity." Therefore, he had not left Chicken Mountain these two days, nor had he let anyone in his family go out, while all kinds of great demons outside were probing for any pieces of information.

On the morning of the ninth day, Ephraim Rocha brought a small demon up the mountain. This small demon was also at the Feather Transformation Stage, and his face was currently pale.

"My Lord, Ephraim Rocha deserves death!" As soon as Ephraim Rocha saw Yusuf Zuck, he knelt down.

"What happened?" Yusuf Zuck’s bad premonition grew stronger.

"Ephraim Rocha deserves death," Ephraim Rocha said with shame. "Since receiving a message from Khalil Schroeder a few days ago, I led all my followers north along the East Coast, and even then, many small demons expressed their reluctance to come here."

"Moved by old affection, and understanding their reluctance to pledge allegiance to a human, I let many leave."

"That’s quite normal," Yusuf Zuck nodded. Not all the Demon Cultivators had taken his Purple Water Drops, so the vast majority of the followers were not his demon slaves; they were merely Ephraim Rocha’s subordinates.

"And starting three days ago, more people began leaving one after another, some even without saying goodbye."

"Last night, Ephraim Rocha finally understood why those followers had left secretly, because a piece of information was spreading among them," Ephraim Rocha said and glanced at Yusuf Zuck.

Yusuf Zuck suddenly startled, then took a deep breath and said, "It’s that those who partake in my Divine Liquid will become my demon slaves, right?"

"That’s the very information," Ephraim Rocha admitted shamefully.

"What do you mean by capturing him?" Yusuf Zuck pointed at the Feather Transformation Stage Demon Cultivator and understood why Trenton Murphy had not brought people along -- because the seven Protectors must have received the same information. As great demons, how could they willingly become slaves to a human? Even if it could help them advance a rank, they would never agree!

"This person is the one spreading rumors and a spy from the Monster Tribe Alliance!" Ephraim Rocha pointed at that Feather Transformation small demon.

"Hmph, you’d better let me go, or when the new Alliance Hierarch of our alliance arrives in the Saint Dragon Continent soon, all of you will die," the Feather Transformation small demon threatened through clenched teeth, spitefully invoking their Hierarch despite being pale.

"So that’s how it is," Yusuf Zuck let out a bitter laugh. Having spies in Ephraim Rocha’s forces meant that the fact they were his demon slaves would naturally be leaked.

"Let him go," Yusuf Zuck stood up and ordered Ephraim Rocha to release the Feather Transformation small demon!

Once Ephraim Rocha let go, the small demon immediately leapt up, soared into the sky, burst into haughty laughter -- the kind filled with triumph, for he had not expected invoking the Hierarch to actually work. Bryson Campbell truly didn’t touch him!

"Hmph, let me tell you, the Hierarch, Protectors, and Elders of my alliance have already arrived at the East Sea and will soon come to the Saint Dragon Continent. You, a mere human, think you can control our Demon Clan? It’s a pipe dream!" After saying this, the person shot straight into the sky.

"Did I say I was letting you go?" Yusuf Zuck looked at the Feather Transformation small demon like he was looking at an idiot and sneered, "I intended to use you to practice a Divine Skill, to see if it was effective or not."

"Heavenly Braces and Earthly Thorns!" Yusuf Zuck sneered, and Heavenly Braces and Earthly Thorns suddenly appeared, trapping the small demon within them in the void.

"Heavenly Principles and Earthly Ways, sacrifice to heaven and earth!"

The Nine Levels of Divine Power of the Book of Earth begins with sacrifice -- grains, livestock, humans, cultivators, Demon Cultivators, all can be sacrificed, the higher the level, the greater the Spiritual Power generated after the sacrifice!

Since the Demon Cultivators would not serve him, then he would use them for sacrifice to strengthen his own Spiritual Power to confront the coming crisis!

With a "boom," the Feather Transformation small demon blew up in the void, the blood mist in the sky suddenly ignited, and his blood-curdling screams echoed within the cloud of blood mist.

"Huff," In the space of a single breath, the blood fog turned to ash, and Yusuf Zuck felt a faint spiritual power fill his soul bead, strengthening it little by little!

"One person alone is just a drop in the ocean," Yusuf Zuck took a deep breath and then glanced at Ephraim Rocha before saying, "Follow me down the mountain." With that, he stepped away from Chicken Mountain and then appeared above the Zhou residence!

Ephraim Rocha immediately followed him, as did Ray Dickson and the duo, Black or Not.

"Gather all the demon troops; I want to address them," Yusuf Zuck commanded coldly.

"Yes," sweat appeared on Ephraim Rocha’s forehead because he felt Yusuf Zuck’s murderous intent and sensed that something bad was going to happen.

Nevertheless, he, Ray Dickson, and Black or Not quickly gathered the demon troops, about six or seven hundred in number, who hadn’t left, into a courtyard of the Zhou residence, crowded to the brim.

Yusuf Zuck moved back and forth in the air, while the demon troops looked up at him.

"You must have all heard the news that I can enslave Demon Cultivators; the news is true!"

"However, I have always had a sympathetic heart towards all Demon Cultivators in the world. I believe that it is not easy for Demon Cultivators to transform into humans, and that they should be treated equally to mankind, with the freedom to live, the right to marry, and to be wed."

"So, all this time, as long as they pledged allegiance to me, I treated Demon Cultivators as brothers and sisters. I believe you have all seen it for yourselves. Whether it’s Ephraim Rocha or others like Black Jiao, they are not masters and slaves in front of me; we are even friends, drinking and eating meat together, chatting about everything under the heavens!"

"But now that the message is out that I will enslave you, I will also give you a choice. I have never been one to force others into difficult situations!"

"Starting now, you have two choices. The first is to stay, and I can use Divine Liquid to help you cleanse your muscles and marrow, awakening your wisdom and improving your physical constitution, which will increase your cultivation speed by at least tens of times, and for some, even hundreds of times!"

"Of course, after taking my Divine Liquid, you will also form a Soul Contract with me."

"The second choice is, you can leave. I will not make things difficult for you, but you only have this one chance. The next time we meet, we will not be friends but enemies in a life-and-death struggle!"

"You have three breaths’ time to consider," Yusuf Zuck said, looking at the six or seven hundred people. "Those who have decided, if staying, proceed to the inner residence; those leaving, remain in place. The timer starts now!"

Yusuf Zuck paced ceaselessly in the sky, observing each person’s slightest movement and expression!

Three breaths’ time is just three breaths, so they had to make their decision quickly.

However, Yusuf Zuck waited in the sky and after three full breaths, not a single person entered the inner residence.

That meant that to them, freedom was the most important thing; their cultivation or physical constitution did not matter, roaming the world freely was what mattered most!

"No one? You all wish to leave?" Yusuf Zuck suddenly asked the people below.

"Master Zhou is magnanimous in understanding the big picture, and we are aware that Master Zhou regards us Demon Cultivators as kin. However, we are sorry to say that we don’t wish to become demons enslaved by others to control our lives and deaths. So thank you, and we shall meet again!"

"We shall meet again!" All the Demon Cultivators bowed to Yusuf Zuck.

"Haha," When he saw that all six or seven hundred Demon Cultivators bowed to him, Yusuf Zuck suddenly burst out laughing.

And the Demon Cultivators didn’t know what he was laughing at!

Yusuf Zuck’s laughter ceased, and a cold smirk flashed across his lips: "I’d also like to say sorry because I’m really not a good person, and if you won’t be of use to me, then I must kill you!"

"Heavenly Braces and Earthly Thorns!"

"Buzz buzz buzz—" Suddenly, he showed no mercy as he made his move. Heavenly Braces and Earthly Thorns were unleashed again, instantly trapping all seven hundred-plus Demon Cultivators within the courtyard!

"Heavenly Principles and Earthly Ways, sacrificing to heaven and earth!"
