At this time, there were already dozens of people standing by the blood pool, and the leader was Xu Shipu, after he saw Yuling, he bowed his head slightly and said, "His Majesty the Spirit Emperor will be there later." ”

As soon as he spoke, the eyes of the others suddenly converged, with different emotions, but very few of them had good intentions, and most of them looked at Yu Ling coldly and scrutinantly.

"Ling'er, come on. Yuan Cheng Yaojun smiled at Yu Ling unabashedly, today she was wearing a close-fitting dark purple dress, looking elegant and noble, similar to the black and swarthy appearance before.

"What's so good about this, what is the result is what the result. Chai Lu on the side sneered.

Yuan Cheng Yaojun glanced at him and said, "It's not that a group of you people are staring at Ling Er tightly and putting pressure on him, if I don't resolve this tension, I think you are all going to fight, right?"

"Heh, the old man naturally won't embarrass a junior. Chai Lu said disdainfully.

"That's good, I hope Elder Chai will do what he says, today we are all spectators, the protagonist here is only Ling Er alone, Elder Don't do anything unruly. "Yuan Cheng Yao Jun said.

Chai Lu snorted coldly and didn't pay any more attention to her.

He was already in a very bad mood, and after participating in this ceremony, he and some other old friends would have to be thrown into the Taigu Cave and confined, and he would miss the selection of the spirit girl in half a year, and this disaster was not caused by Yuling.

Lingyuan Blood Pool and Wuji Dengxian Sword, they can't do anything, but even if Yuling's bloodline is not a problem, they will never let him have a good time in the matter of chasing down the remnants of the Xuanling Clan.

Either Yuling will be ruthless and kill his relatives in righteousness, or he will be ready to meet the condemnation of the whole clan.

"Let's get started. ”

The Yuan Ling Ling Emperor didn't know when he entered the room, and there was an old man with an immortal wind bone behind him.

Looking closely, the old man was really old, and he seemed to have come to the end of his life, his face was full of brown spots, wrinkles were piled up layer by layer, his drooping eyelids almost covered his eyes, and his hair was very thin. He was wearing a wide white robe, and with the breeze blowing, the placket of his shirt kept lapping against his thin body, looking extremely thin.

But his narrowed eyes have an indescribable brilliance, which makes people involuntarily become calm and peaceful when they look at him, as if no matter how old his appearance is, he can't hide his otherworldly soul.

Yu Ling looked at the old man, and the other party smiled at him, that smile inexplicably made Yu Ling feel very relieved, it seemed that this old man was an absolutely trustworthy person.

Emperor Yuan Ling slowed down, respectfully helped the old man, and led him to a high platform by the blood pool.

"The patriarch is invited to read the canon. Yuan Ling Ling Emperor stood in front of the stage and saluted solemnly.

The Yuanling clan is different from the sects and families in the north, the latter is respected by strength, as long as they cultivate to the immortal realm, they are a patriarch. But in the Yuanling clan, even Xu Shipu, who was at the peak of the abandonment, was still an elder, and the elder was more like an honorary title, which had nothing to do with cultivation, only with seniority.

Yu Ling saw that even Chai Lu, who had a very bad attitude towards him, was respectful and respectful when he saw this elder, and he did not slack off.

The old man on the high platform trembled and took a long gold-rimmed scroll from the Spirit Emperor's hand, and after slowly spreading it out, he read in a hoarse voice: "Hongmeng opens up, and its path is bright." Born in ignorance, from the great wilderness. The ancestor summons the spirit, and it is a chapter. All the tribes come to the court, and all the souls admire ......"

A Yuan canon, sprinkled with thousands of words, although its words are simple, but there is a kind of indescribable majestic atmosphere, as if with the recitation of the old man, heaven and earth are verified, people can't help but be full of piety.

The importance of ritual is to unite people's hearts.

Even Yuling, who has no sense of belonging, has a different feeling at this moment, as if the whole process has inexplicably become sacred and solemn.

"Today, the two thousand one hundred and sixty-third members of the royal family of our clan have returned, and their name is Yuling, which is hereby announced to the world. After the patriarch finished speaking slowly, his eyes fell on Yu Ling gently, and he said with a bit of eagerness and encouragement: "Child, come and sign your name." ”

Yu Ling walked to the high platform, and the patriarch gently handed him the gold-rimmed scroll, only to see that the front was engraved with the Yuan Canon, and the back was densely packed with names one after another.

All members of the Yuanling Imperial Family, regardless of the era, can find their names on this scroll. And there are still a lot of white spaces.

Originally, Yu Ling was still wondering where the more than 2,000 members of the Yuan Ling Clan came from, but now he reacted, this patriarch was talking about the total number of the total, including those who had already passed away.

Emperor Yuan Ling handed Yu Ling a cinnabar pen, and he wrote his name at the very end. The words are not very beautiful, but they are not ugly, after all, just these two words, you can still write well if you write carefully.

After the cinnabar dried, the Yuan Ling Ling Emperor put away the scroll and said to Yu Ling: "Kneel down, the patriarch will make up for your crowning." ”

He carefully helped the old man down the high platform, Yu Ling hesitated, but still did as he was told, after all, this is a etiquette that has been passed down for tens of thousands of years, and it is not insulting, purely to show the respect of the younger generation to the elders, and he has no ill feelings towards this elder.

Since there was a series of things to be done later, the coronation ceremony was simplified, and the sacrificial steps were omitted.

The attendant on the side bowed down and slowly stepped forward with the golden case, and three hair crowns of different styles were held on it.

The patriarch held up the first red and black plain crown, put it firmly on top of Yuling's head, carefully tied it for him, and said softly: "Welcome home, this plain crown means that you are an adult and can take charge of yourself." ”

Then he held up the second leather white hat, and continued: "This top hat made of snow beaver animal skin means that you have cultivated in the True Dao Realm, and it also means that you will shoulder the responsibility of protecting our clan from now on. ”

"This black and gold crown means that you have officially become a member of the royal family, and from now on you enjoy all the rights of the royal family, and you should also fulfill all the corresponding obligations. ”

The three crowns of hair pressed heavily on Yu Ling's head, as if they had turned into tangible restraints.

The patriarch gently lifted him up, and finally tied a white jade waist to Yu Ling's body, and said gently: "This is my personal blessing to you, I hope you are safe and happy." ”

"Thank you, Patriarch. Yu Ling's mood was a little complicated, although he didn't have a good impression of the Yuan Ling Clan, but after this series of rituals, some of his perceptions did change subtly.

It's not that after listening to the Yuan Dian and wearing these three hair crowns, his head is hot, and he is desperately planning to sacrifice everything for the Yuan Ling clan, but from this moment on, everyone has witnessed his return, at least in the eyes of everyone, he must exist as a loyal Yuan Ling clan, and he must take on the responsibility of the royal family, otherwise it will be a big rebellion.

"I know you're new to this place, but don't forget who you are, regardless of the good or bad faith you're dealing with. The patriarch said slowly, with deep meaning in his words.

He turned around and said a little tiredly, "I'm a little tired, so I'll go back first." ”

"Congratulations to the patriarch. Emperor Yuan Ling sent him all the way outside the wall, and finally the two boys supported the old man to leave.

As soon as he walked on his front foot, the atmosphere that was still peaceful was suddenly swept away, and the undercurrent became turbulent again.

"Your Majesty the Spirit Emperor, it's almost time for the Blood Pool Baptism to begin, right?" said an elder.

Yuan Ling Ling Emperor turned his head to look at Yu Ling, and said calmly: "Don't be nervous, you just walk to the center of the blood pool and put your hand on the Wuji Dengxian Sword, if you get its approval, we will feel it." ”
