In the center of the eerie bronze altar stands an ancient bronze tripod adorned with the patterns of a nine-tailed beast. The tripod leaks a dark green patina. A long-haired, handsome man, dressed in tattered grayish-white fabric, hangs above the tripod. His pale skin is marked with dark golden runes. Low-angle lighting casts the shadows of the iron chains wrapped around the tripod onto the rock wall adorned with bronze animal heads. Burning vermilion talismans form a reverse pentagram trajectory in the air. The ultra-wide-angle composition enhances the oppressive feeling of the sacrifice and the evil tripod. Dark Eastern fantasy style, 4K cinematic quality, close-up of the characters' faces.
