Condemning the Heavens

Chapter 309: 309

The forest was greedily absorbing every drop of blood, sucking it out of the city, and into the ground instead . The river of blood in the lost city was being drained at a rapid pace .

A resounding boom sounded in the city, and suddenly the altar that was high above the rest started cracking .

The Berserkers within the city were looking at each other with shock . They saw that the river of blood was slowly draining and even their altar was starting to be destroyed .

Their eyes turned scarlet, and their breathing hurried in fear . They did not have a great talent for cultivation and relied solely on their innate connection to the river of blood in the lost city .

Xue Wei had hidden himself rather well . The moment the forest started changing, he quickly took the other two and left . Not long after, a group of people appeared, these people looked at each other with dismay in their eyes .

The destruction brought to the dam that kept the blood in the river and lake was so overwhelming that they were incapable of repairing it easily, and blood kept being drained at a rapid pace .

They were at a loss for what to do . Should they spend their time trying to block the blood, or should they try and find the ones who had caused the leakage, so that they did not cause more problems .

And causing problems was exactly what Xue Wei was planning on doing . He had left their original position, but he had not given up his goal, instead, he went to the other side of the lake and started destroying the dam on this side too .

It was taking some time, but after the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, he finally succeeded and broke the second hole in the wall of the bloody lake .

Once again, the blood started streaming out of the dam, and the dry soil absorbed it rapidly, the trees slowly turning red .

This time, no blood of Xue Wei dropped into the blood, so it did not turn blue but stayed red . The speed of the absorption was also much slower than on the other side, where the trees were greedily sucking out the blood from the lake .

It was night, but many of the Berserkers who were within their rooms sleeping quickly woke up and understood that something was happening .

Their bodies were turning feeble, their eyes bloodshot . They could feel that their connection to the blood river was weakening drastically, and it felt as if a part of their soul was being forcefully ripped apart .

Xue Wei saw that the previously deserted city was now bustling with life, the worn out houses were housing Berserkers, and all of them were waking up now, unsure of what was going on .

Xue Wei could see everything from where he was, and he observed them running around like headless chickens, their expressions filled with fear but also undisguised malice .

They could sense themselves weakening, and they could not help but feel uncomfortable .

"They should be easy to pick up one after another," Bai Tianyi suddenly said .

"We don’t know where the others are held prisoner," Hei Gou agreed, "but what we can do is to find the experts of this Berserker city and question them . You can use Mind Infestation on them, I doubt they have strong mental fortitude . "

Xue Wei nodded his head . These Berserkers relied fully on their bodies being strong and their Qi levels being high . Xue Wei and Bai Tianyi had high spiritual energy levels, and when it came to something like their spiritual energy, they could easily manipulate them as they pleased .

Xue Wei, Bai Tianyi, and Hei Gou inched closer to the populated part of the city . They were waiting in the shadows for when someone was alone, and after waiting for a short while, they encountered a person who was heading towards the outskirts of the lost city with the purpose of bringing a message from the elders to the scouts that had noticed the leakage of blood lake .

This person was hurried and did not look around carefully . She was rushing and nervous, and when she ran past Xue Wei, Hei Gou, and Bai Tianyi, all three of them launched their attacks at once .

Mind Infestation!

Spirit Cage!

Swallow the Moon!

Hei Gou was using his innate ability to devour all light in the surroundings, Bai Tianyi caged the figure in a cage made from spiritual energy, and Xue Wei finally used Mind Infestation to take over her mind .

She was soon rendered completely immobile, her mind a mess and her body unable to move without being given the order by Xue Wei .

Xue Wei, however, quickly ordered her with his mind to follow them as they hid from view once more .

Finding a small black alleyway where no one would enter, Xue Wei looked at the person in front of him .

The female Berserker’s eyes were clouded over, she was not seeing anything, and solely working on Xue Wei’s orders .

"Keep an eye out," Xue Wei said to Bai Tianyi and Hei Gou, and he put all his focus on the woman whom he had under his control, he closed his eyes and started searching her memories .

There were not many people in the Berserkers’ village, so they were all moving together in a group when they had attacked the ship and took all of them prisoner again .

He found that this woman was not in the vanguard, but had been scouting the back of their group, keeping an eye out for Xue Wei and the others coming back and interrupting their attack .

He saw everything in her memory, and at the same time, he was able to sense her feelings . He could feel her unhappiness with the rest of the Berserkers, but she was one of them after all and could not go against the rest . If she voiced her disagreement, it was obvious that she would end up as a corpse, drained of all her blood .

Now that Xue Wei found her memories, he also found that she was not struggling against his control, it was obvious that she was not against helping these visitors, and Xue Wei was feeling rather surprised .

He quickly continued to scan her memories and found the location where all the others were held captive, and then he contemplated for a moment . He could kill this woman easily, but he felt that she had done nothing to deserve it . In fact, she was trying to help him in her own way, so killing her was quite ungrateful .

"Let’s go," he said, as he kept his control over the woman, and the group of three had become a group of four, as they moved towards the dungeons .

The dungeons were located close to the altar, in the midst of the city, and they were heavily guarded normally .

Today was different, however . Although they were heavily guarded, there were quite a few people who had been forced to hunt for Xue Wei and his companions, and even more, who were dispatched to check what had happened to the forest .

Some of the trees had turned blue, while others had turned red . Some of the guards had also been tasked with repairing the destroyed dams that allowed for the blood to leak from the river and lake .

So many things were happening at once, and it was impossible to deal with it all in one go . Everything could cause a disruption of their plans, and no one knew how to deal with it .

The Elders were shocked and uncomfortable . Many people had come by their village and island throughout the eons, and while many had been left alone on their travels because they were too strong to be provoked, most of the people who had visited had ended up in the river of blood .

The Elders were the ones who determined which ships were to be attacked and which were to be left alone, and these elders had picked the delegation as one of their targets .

They had not expected that things were not as simple as they had thought . Things had become chaotic and uncomfortable, the people who were on board were stronger than they had expected, and they fought back relentlessly . Although only a few of them were awake, these few people were enough to cause a headache .

The Elders had a headache . They were wondering what to do with their sacred blood river and lake, which was currently emptying at a rapid speed, they were wondering what to do with the forest which was turning crimson and indigo from absorbing blood, and they were also wondering what to do with Xue Wei and the other free-roaming experts .

Xue Wei was aware that he had caused headaches, and he was very pleased with the results . As they reached the dungeons, they quickly started to execute their attacks .

Mind Infestation followed by Spirit Cage was the best combination . It could be used from a distance, and as soon as Mind Infestation took over, they forfeited their lives .

Xue Wei felt that there was indeed a major difference between the woman who was following them and the Berserkers he met . The woman whom he still held full control over was obedient and cooperated willingly . Although she knew instinctively that her mind was invaded, she did not fight against it, her soul tranquil like a lake .

The gate to the dungeons was manned by seven guards . Xue Wei contemplated what to do, but while he was thinking, Bai Tianyi had already launched the first Mind Infestation, coupled with Hei Gou launching Swallowing the Moon .

Everything went black . No one could see anything, and the guards started calling out for one another, but a dull sound was heard as one person after another collapsed on the ground, Mind Infestation shattering their souls .

One after another they succumbed to death, and Xue Wei went to the prison, only to find that all of them were awake, albeit rather groggy and their eyes glassed over .

Luoluo was the first one to notice him, and she was about to call out when she saw him place a finger on his thin lips and shake his head .

Realizing the situation they were in, she quickly nodded her head and kept quiet .

Soon after the gate was broken open and all of them staggered out of the chamber .

"Let us show those bastards that we aren’t easy to deal with," one of the sailors grumbled as he rubbed his sore head .

The others nodded their heads, and although they were all feeling as if they had a hangover, they quickly took out their weapons and prepared to strike .

They soon found that they had no weapons on them, as the Berserkers had taken away their items, but after scouring a few houses close to the prison where they found a variety of weapons . Although it was not the ones they were used to, they could assist them in this time of need .

Xue Wei was not going to tell them not to, but he still opened his mouth to warn them, "don’t let them connect with the bloody river," he said seriously, "they are Berserkers, so it is best for you to destroy the bloody river first, and when it is destroyed, then you can focus on killing them all . "

"What about the woman who is following you?" one of them asked hesitatingly . All of them had noticed that a woman was with Xue Wei from beginning to end, and he just shrugged his shoulders, "she has assisted me quite a lot, so leave her alive . "

The others nodded their heads and together, all of them rushed towards the city’s streets, ready to bathe it red in the blood of the Berserkers .
