It can be seen that Naraku's popularity does not seem to be particularly good among the Demon Venerables, and the Demon Venerables who arrived at this time are almost one-sided and jointly squeezed Naraku.

Zou Dui also knew that Naraku's mind was the best among all the Demon Venerables, and he had turned the ruled area into a moderately powerful force with the worst personal strength, which was naturally easy to arouse the jealousy of other Demon Venerables.

The other eight demon venerables came back and forth, and they were also followed by a demon man. Zou Dui observed it and had already determined that they were all demons who had obtained the qualification for baptism in the Holy Land just like himself.

Except for a middle-aged man with a beard, the eight demons who had obtained the qualifications for baptism in the Holy Land were all young people like Zou Dui.

Zou Dui already knew that in general, for the annual baptism in the Holy Land, each Demon Venerable could recommend one person, and the Demon Venerable would often recommend the most potential Demon Genius in the tribe for their own interests and development considerations. Therefore, it is not surprising that there is only one middle-aged person among the eight demons who participated in the baptism, and the others are all young demons and young men.

These eight demons who have obtained the baptism qualification are not fuel-efficient lamps, and when the other demons are fighting with Naraku, their eyes also fall on Zou Dui intentionally or unintentionally, which is quite provocative.

Zou Dui's purpose was not the so-called "baptism" in the first place, and naturally he didn't bother to pay attention to the eyes of the other eight people, which made the eight people even more unscrupulous, and even looked at Zou Dui with contempt, whispered and laughed with each other, and some sarcastic words were undisguised.

At this time, the war of words between Naraku and the other Demon Venerables stopped temporarily, and Naraku whispered to Zou Dui: "For the sake of the ranking of baptism, a simple competition will be held later." If you are weaker, you don't need to be like them, and the order of baptism does not affect the effect of baptism. ”

The martial arts of the demons focus on the flesh and strength, so the qi and blood breath is the standard for measuring strength, and Zou Dui's qi and blood breath only stays at the level of the "Ninth Stage of the Forging Body Realm", so naturally in the eyes of other demons, he has become a weak existence. It's no wonder that Naraku would tell Zou Dui like this.

Zou Dui didn't have the slightest explanation, only nodded solemnly, but in his heart he had to admire Naraku's patience, others could say that he had ridden on his head, he was still able to deal with it calmly, and he didn't face it head-on because he was so angry that he lost his mind.

At this time, the men in black who were in a hurry stopped one after another and lined up on both sides of the dark palace. A short time later, an old man with an ugly face came out of the dark palace, he was extremely thin and thin, and he carried a black sacrificial staff in his hand.

Seeing the ugly old man appear, Naraku and the other Nine Demon Venerables immediately stepped forward, saluted respectfully, and said in unison: "Welcome to the Holy Priest!"

Zou Dui followed behind the Nine Great Demon Venerables along with the other eight demons who had obtained the baptism qualifications, and learned to salute, but his eyes kept looking at this holy priest.

Like the Nine Great Demon Venerables, this Holy Priest's aura is not much different from ordinary people, but Zou Dui can feel the horror of this Holy Shaman, if the Nine Great Demon Venerables give Zou Dui the feeling that they can't resist, this Holy Shaman is like a natural enemy!

Zou Dui was naturally very surprised in his heart, the personal strength of the Nine Great Demon Venerables was already comparable to the level of "Innate Master", and this Holy Priest had even overwhelmed the Nine Great Demon Venerables, I really didn't know how to describe this terrifying strength.

"No need to be polite. ”

The Holy Shaman nodded expressionlessly, stared at the Nine Demon Venerables, and said, "You have arrived at the right time today, I want to advance the ritual of summoning the clone of the Demon God, and I just need your help. Let today's baptism be postponed for the time being. ”

When the Nine Great Demon Venerables heard this, they were all stunned and surprised. One of them asked, "Holy Shaman, it seems that the date of the summoning ceremony is still very early, so why do you suddenly have to bring the date forward?"

The Holy Priest snorted coldly: "Every summoning ceremony will be interrupted by the group of outcasts who betrayed the Demon God, this time I learned a lesson, and after deliberately releasing the news, I temporarily changed the time, so that the group of outcasts were caught off guard and could not make trouble, so as to ensure that this time I can successfully let the Demon God Lord descend into the world!"

The Nine Great Demon Venerables glanced at each other and said in unison, "We will definitely do our best to welcome the Demon God Lord into the world!"

The Holy Sharcer nodded, "Haha" and smiled: "Nine, please come with me." With that, he turned and walked towards the entrance of the Dark Palace.

The Nine Great Demon Venerables did not hesitate and followed the script of the Holy Priest. And Zou Dui hesitated for a moment, he didn't really want to enter the dark palace, because the dark palace left him a lot of shadows, in case he entered the dark palace and was immediately discovered by the owner of the huge eyes, then the situation would be extremely bad.

But seeing that the other eight demons who had obtained the baptism qualification had already followed the Nine Great Demon Venerables, Zou Dui still followed, otherwise if he was still standing in place, he would have exposed himself without waiting for anyone to point it out.

Under the leadership of the Holy Priest, the Nine Great Demon Venerables and Zou Dui and the others all entered the Dark Palace.

In this somewhat dilapidated and dark palace, the huge sarcophagus was placed in the very center. Zou Dui lowered his head and followed the team carefully, worrying all the time, but fortunately nothing happened until he entered the dark palace.

Zou Dui breathed a sigh of relief for a while, raised his eyes and took a closer look, and found that compared with the appearance he saw in the sea of soul consciousness that day, this dark palace had changed, and the most obvious place was that behind the huge sarcophagus, there was an extra "blood pool", which was filled with a liquid as fresh as human blood, and a strong smell of blood wafted around.

The blood pool was circular, and there were ten small platforms around it, and the holy priest didn't say a word, he stood on a small platform first, and the other nine demon lords also stood on one of the small platforms. It can be seen that it is not the first time that they have performed such a summoning ceremony.

As for Zou Dui and the others, they had nothing to do, and they were ordered to stand aside and watch from afar, and not to approach at will, otherwise they would bear the consequences.

When everything was ready, the holy priest began to chant an unknown scripture, and at the same time, blood light burst out from his body, hitting the "pool of blood". The other nine demon venerables were not idle, and they put on various weird postures, and a thick body of qi and blood gushed out, directly connecting with the blood pool under the small platform.

Zou Dui was stunned, because the richness of the qi and blood of the Nine Demon Venerables was completely beyond imagination, and the qi and blood aura that emanated was completely like an entity, rendering the bodies of the Nine Demon Venerables into "blood-colored amber", and at the same time, an unprecedented terrifying qi and blood power fell on Zou Dui and the others, making the space seem to be still.
