He moved a little closer.
Without the paper doll’s vision this time, he could see the Undying Clan members who were offering their blood with his own eyes.
At first, Alex was a little worried that he would be discovered. But soon, he noticed a problem with species performing the sacrifice.
They had no reaction at all. Blood was still flowing, yet he could no longer sense any living aura from them.
They were dead!
Or rather, this kind of sacrifice to the Earth-devouring Tree of Netherworld required a living sacrifice.
How evil!
Alex gently pushed an Undying Clan member. Its body that was kneeling on the ground suddenly fell, but it was in a bizarre posture. Although it had fallen to the ground, half of its bottom was still glued firmly to the ground.
“Are they all dead?”
All of a sudden, a voice rang in Alex’s ears. When he turned around, he saw Shado.
“Why did you come here?” Alex was slightly startled and frowned.
“I… I just came here to take a look. You don’t mind, do you?” Clearly, Shado’s grinning look indicated that she was a restless person. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have found Alex in great Genbu’s stomach and bring him back.”
“This is the Earth-devouring Tree of Netherworld,” Alex solemnly said.
As he said so, he violently slapped the Undying Clan member next to him with his palm. Similarly, there was a small Earth-devouring Tree inside it after shattering.
“This one has it too!”
“This one also has it… This one has it too… Alex, all of these Undying Clan members have turned into trees after death. This… is too bizarre. I’ve never heard of such a thing, but I wonder if my grandma knows about it?” Shado said as she looked at Alex, probably implying that she needed to head back to ask her grandmother.
Just as Alex was about to speak, a tree root abruptly emerged from the ground, wrapping around Shado.
“Ahh! Alex, save me!”
