Chapter 14 Tamashi Sacrificing Technique 2...
"STRIP!!!" Joules ordered with a look of disgust on her face.
Without complaining, Chiron did as he was told. He stripped naked and stood before the elders.
"Stand there!" one of the elders ordered, pointing to the center of the room.
Chiron did as he was told. The center of the room was marked clearly with Spirit symbols on different Talismans.
The room was not so dark, but it was not bright either. It was lightened shallowly with spirit lamps on the walls.
Chiron moved to the center. Here, he could see it clearly. Although the Paper seals on the walls looked like there were scattered, there were all in perfect alignment to the center of the room.
Another door suddenly opened and a man with some other elders following him walked in. One look at him and Chiron knew who he was. He had dark hair and a full-bearded face, but even through it, Chiron could still see the resemblance.
This was Dona Chivalry. The Chief of the clan and Chiron's uncle. However, this was the very first time Chiron was seeing him. The relationship between Aleen and Dona was just that terrible.
The hunt for power was not the only thing that came in between the two brothers. However, the relationship between them at the moment was only a step away from a full-blown battle. In fact, it had already happened more than once in the past.
Another familiar face that had entered the room was elder Fatso. This was also the first time Chiron was seeing him. In fact, even the MC of his book had never had an encounter with this man, and that was because he died during the Circumcision ceremony.
The only reason Chiron recognized him was because of the vision he had seen from the Change Fate System. This was the person that resulted in his nearly early death.
Chiron could not help but frown at his arrival.
Dona only took a look at the naked Chiron before averting his eyes.
The other elders in the room bowed as soon as Dona entered while Joules nodded slightly at him.
Dona waved his hand at them, "Thank you. There is no need for formalities at the moment. Let's just begin the process."
The elders nodded and they took different positions at safe distances around Chiron.
An elder brought forward the Ancestral Broad sword before Dona, and he nodded as he received it. "So how did the new batch of cultivators fair?" he asked, but his eyes were on Elder joules.
She smiled back at him, "they were remarkable. We had two A-grade Dantains." ƒ𝗿e𝘦𝚠𝗲𝚋n𝚘ν𝙚𝗹.𝑐o𝙢
From the expression on Dona's face and the elders that walked into the room with him, they were happy.
"But that's not all," Joules looked at the elders around her with a sideway glance, before she continued, "There is more good news, but I suggest we finish with this matter before we discuss it." She gave Dona a piercing look and he nodded in understanding.
"In that case, let's finish first." Dona kept the ancestral broad sword by the side of his hips. He brought out a small knife and made a deep cut on his palm. As he did this, so did the other elders. Each and every one of them sliced at their own palms with knives.
From the way they did it, it was obvious that they were quite skilled at cutting.
Dona mumbled in a low tone as he activated his spirit energy. As he did, the elders began chanting after him. As if on command, the paper seals on the walls began to glow slightly.
It was one thing to see and feel to a certain extent the sensations of the Mc and another thing to actually experience it. This time around, Chiron was having a front sit experience.
As the elders chanted, they poured their spirit energy into the blood that dripped from their hands.
The Seals on the walls grew brighter and as they did, the blood from the elders suddenly formed long sharp chains. These blood-red chains acted as if they had lives of their own and raced towards the Chiron. Piercing through different parts of his body like a hot knife through butter.
Although Chiron had already prepared his mind for this, the pain was still nothing to frown upon.
However, he groaned lowly, biting hard at his lower lip until it bleed. They were more than eight elders in the room. Each of them had sent a blood chain through his body.
This was not pain that a child should experience. In fact, a lot of adults would have screamed when the first blood chain pierced through. But not Chiron.
Even the elders were very surprised at this. This room was made soundproofed especially because of the pain that came with passing this technique. 𝑓𝓇𝑒𝑒𝚠e𝘣𝓷𝘰ѵe𝑙.com
What none of them knew was that in Chiron's heart, this was a necessary evil. In fact, if not that he was biting hard at his lower lip, he would have been smiling elatedly.
Regardless of the survival of elder Fatso, the way they had done the technique was exactly as he remembered it. This proved that all the techniques he had in his head were just as he remembered them.
This also included techniques that were not yet invented, and also techniques that were lost to the sands of history that the MC of the Book later discovered. But best of all, it was proof that the Aura acquiring technique he was planning to use was the real deal.
It was ironic. Chiron was probably the current happiest and yet most pained man in the whole world.
Drops of sweat slide down his forehead staining the floor like a tap that was not turned off properly. His legs had already given way to the pain and his knees were on the ground.
His breathing was heavy, but he knew it was not still over.
And he was right. Chief Dona signaled to the other elders and they all nodded in understanding. The Chant changed and the blood chain that had pierced through his body turned around like snakes in mid-air and wrapped themselves around him.
They wrapped his hands, legs, and every part of his body. slithering on his skin like they had exclusive access to it. As the chain Wrapped around him, they merged themselves with his skin.
Yet another kind of pain was ensured. Chiron felt like a million fire ants had decided to take tasty bites off his skin and spit them back out, only to take another bite again.
By now, a small puddle had formed under him, but he still did not scream, nor did he faint.
Even Dona watching this scene could not help but be impressed. He unconsciously nodded his head in praise. An action that Joules took notice of.
The Chains formed red chain-looking tattoos around his body that all led to his navel as the center.
Chiron fell to the floor. The ceremony had finally ended. He sighed in relief.
"Help him with his clothes and send him back home," Dona ordered as he turned to leave the room. He was not the only one. The other elders also turned to leave.
"WAIT!" a voice suddenly called and all the elders paused.
It was elder Fatso. "I don't think it worked."
Chiron suddenly got an alert
