I became a god by treasure hunting after arriving 500 years early

The March Civilization has always been publicly recruiting foreign craftsmen.

Lu Yuan let out a soft sigh, thinking to himself, "It seems the Lu Shu Clan is the one secretly supporting the March Civilization, recruiting talent in such a manner..."

"Elder, how much time is left in the Ninth Epoch?" someone suddenly asked.

"Not sure, it depends on the overall level of understanding and some unforeseen factors."

"Perhaps it will arrive tomorrow, or perhaps in a thousand years... but at most not more than two thousand years. Truly, a short-lived epoch. Our Lu Shu Clan, adept in celestial phenomena and divination, has no doubt about this information."

The Lu Shu Elder paused for a bit and said something shocking: "Time is running out, what should we do? These ancient races want us to unearth the Blood Sacrifice Rules again to accelerate development!"

"We are all civilizations with Qi Fortune, carrying substantial weight in the World Will. If we all agree to unearth the Blood Sacrifice Rules, the long-buried rules will reemerge!"

"At that time, the effect of blood sacrifice will be ten times better, even a hundred times better than it is now!"

These words carried a somber tone, even with a slight air of ruthless determination.

Even if the Lu Shu Elder did not state his stance, the atmosphere suddenly turned chilly.

"Blood sacrifice is almost an omnipotent method, from forging mythical equipment, enhancing one's bloodline strength, to repairing this spatial tunnel... You know, spatial tunnels are one-way; with a blood sacrifice, the cost of space transfer would significantly decrease."

"In other words, it represents the origin of the mind, achieving desires as if by thought."

"In the First Epoch, it was almost a part of achieving desires... Thus, through the Blood Sacrifice Rules, all major civilizations can quickly strengthen, making it possible to escape the Epoch Disaster."

Amidst the howling wind and chilling water, even with the warm weather, it felt like winter.

This is a blatantly open scheme.

Who approves, who opposes?!

All civilizations are trapped in the Ruins of Buzhou, destined to be slaughtered if opposed!

This is truly an immense pressure that silenced all the civilizations present.

Tado couldn't help clenching his fists, pondering the consequences if the Blood Sacrifice Rules were unearthed again?

Tenfold, hundredfold war gains, and the already unstable Pangu Continent would suddenly become a sea of corpses!

As for the so-called "achieving desires as if by thought" rule, will it be your turn?

Weak civilizations are just fodder for blood sacrifice!

A general's success is paved with countless bones; standing at the top is reserved for a few, will it be your turn?

He couldn't help but freeze entirely.

Human diplomats were also horrified, as it's hard for human ideology to make such choices.

To see a wisdom civilization slaughtered for a blood sacrifice is a massive blow to one's own morality!

Once shortcuts become habitual, will anyone want to develop through traditional thinking in the future? Will anyone study physics, mathematics, and chemistry?

Changes in environment will inevitably lead to changes in ideology!

Although Lu Yuan had vaguely guessed this, his heart still pounded when the truth was revealed. He wanted to promote Field Industrialization, wanted to sell Divine Skill, but needed the support of countless low-level civilizations.

If these guys were sacrificed, to whom could he sell?

"Damn it, they're courting death!"

"But I can't possibly go to war with the Ten Thousand Races." Lu Yuan's mind spun rapidly, deep in thought.

"In any case, I'm just giving you this news in advance now." The Lu Shu Elder said softly, seeing the people around him not speaking, "The decision is up to you."

"At the Buzhou Grand Festival a year from now, you must give an answer."

Though they are also an ancient race, the Lu Shu Clan has always been somewhat tricky.

The stance of the Lu Shu Clan is indeed somewhat ambiguous.

They are kind-hearted and have supported many civilizations.

But they also know that if things continue this way, the entire world is doomed, so their stance is ambiguous.

"If we agreed to this plan, wouldn't we become the sacrifice ourselves?" Tado raised a hand, loudly asking, "With the Blood Sacrifice Rules reappearing, we'd be the first to die, wouldn't we? Think carefully, when civilization numbers are reduced by ninety-nine percent, wouldn't it affect us?"

"This... could be temporarily put to rest, as there are so many sacrifices outside, you're not needed yet."

The Lu Shu Elder sighed: "The Pangu's Will in the Ninth Epoch has become quite spiritual. You carry substantial weight in its eyes, a few deaths are okay, but mass slaughter, and the massacrer will face a heavenly chasm."

"But it's hard to say what the future holds."

"Pangu's Will cannot protect you forever..."

"Of course, if you dare to use the Blood Sacrifice Rules, there are indeed benefits... just the scene of mountains of corpses and seas of fire, even I, an old man, can't bear to see it..."

"What if we disagree?" The leader of the March Civilization emitted an electronic voice.

This race communicates through brainwaves and cannot speak, so the sound can only be artificially synthesized.

"Oh, March People." The Lu Shu Elder sighed once more, "They are determined to push this matter forward; if you, as one civilization, disagree, it's futile. Plus, you will bear tremendous risk; can you... afford the risk of not agreeing?"

"Unless you weak ones unite to oppose, but do you have this ability? You only have a short year, and more and more civilizations are coming here. March Civilization, you are still not strong enough to accomplish this task."
