「The next day.」
「Early in the morning.」
On the huge bluestone square, hundreds, if not thousands, of Demon Cultivators had gathered. The Demonic Qi soared to the heavens amid a chaotic dance of fiends.
Every Demon Cultivator wore an excited expression, huddled together and discussing matters with great enthusiasm.
"The Great Demonic Sacrifice has finally begun~"
"I've been waiting for this day for a hundred years!"
"How many souls have you prepared this time? I've only got a little over three thousand..."
"A little over three thousand? Why even bother attending the Great Demonic Sacrifice with so few? Anyone who didn't know better would think the Heavenly Demon can't afford a proper feast!"
"Eh, it's about the same for me. I didn't prepare much either, just casually scraped together about five thousand souls!"
[Ding!]
[Detected someone boasting. Congratulations to the Host for gaining +66 Mana.]
