Chapter 423: Spiritual Power Rises
In the Sunrise Department of Nanzhan Prefecture, Hassan was praying for the rising sun, and as the person in charge of the external affairs of the tribe, the opportunity to participate in the prayer service of the entire tribe like this was an extremely precious opportunity for him. From the summit of Mt. Bishane, the people of the tribe are lined up from top to bottom on the sunny side of the hillside, depending on their status.
The priest sang a hymn to the god of the sun on the top of the mountain, and with each of his melodious chantings, the whole tribe prayed loudly in response, and the crowd fell down and lifted up wave after wave like a calm and orderly wave on the sea, accompanied by Hassan, feeling the warm gift of the god of the sun, and could not help shedding tears of excitement.
In the first row at the foot of the mountain, there are only a dozen or so children from the tribe who have just turned 8 years old, and in front of them are offerings to the sun god after the prayer ceremony, including large sacrifices such as cattle and sheep, as well as various small daily necessities woven from plants and trees, and even electronic watches. Modern supplies such as radios.
In the Sunrise Division, the worship of the god of the sun is all-encompassing, and it is impossible for the god of the sun to have no other requirements for life than to eat. In the back row of the children are their mothers, who pray and pay nervous attention to the children in front of them, seven or eight years old is the time to be active, and it is a sin to mess up the sacrifice of the sun god during prayer, and will be punished by the tribe.
It is through this ritual that the tribe comprehensively examines the hearts and morals of these children. The outcome of this collective prayer will determine the future status and education of these children in the tribe, and every mother attaches great importance to them.
"Avi, what are you doing? Stop!" In the middle of the prayer, a mother suddenly whispered, and the other mothers in the second row looked in amazement at a little boy in the first row.
In front of the boy, several dolls carved with sticks and woven with blades of grass to be offered to the god of the sun as maids were dancing and slowly flying, and the boy looked at them in a daze, forgetting to pray.
A slight commotion quickly extended from the first two rows to the back, as if a turbulent current had suddenly mixed into the calm waves of the sea.
Hassan, who was kneeling halfway up the mountain, listened to the whispers coming from in front of him, and he was also a little panicked, he raised his eyes and tried to look down the mountain, but he couldn't see anything clearly, at this moment, there was the sound of hunting behind him, and the priest swept down from the top of the mountain like a big bird, and his wide robe was stretched out by his outstretched arms, obscuring the bright sun for a while.
The priest came to the boy Avi, and his hand touched the boy's forehead as if to say something, and then the priest was seen looking up to the sky, raising his hands in the air, and he chanted a complicated hymn, which was a special song of gratitude to the tribe when it was favored by the god of the sun.
After nearly 50 years of missing elders, a child of the Sunrise Department finally gained the favor of the Sun God and mastered mana.
When the news came, the entire Sunrise Department cheered, and Hassan closed his eyes and lifted his head hard to let the sun shine on his face, and he reverently praised the sun god in his heart, full of hope for the future of the tribe.
The chief stood on the top of the mountain, smiling and looking at the foot of the mountain, the elder not only represents the combat power of the tribe, but also symbolizes the deterrent power of the tribe, the Sunrise Department has not had an elder for nearly 50 years, this used to be an extremely important concern for the Sunrise Department, but because the surrounding tribes gradually no longer have elders, this concern has gradually been covered up, and now with the elders, everything is different.
The chief looked down the hill, and for a moment surrounded the young elder, countless plans churning in his mind.
"Don't be in a hurry, don't be in a hurry, he still needs to grow......" The chief was amused by his own anxiety, and he smiled, and suddenly his expression changed, and a breeze that made his whole body shiver slightly swept through his already pale hair.
How long has it been since I felt it? The chief suddenly looked back to the south, to the place where the wind was blowing.
The Southern Zhanbu Prefecture Magicians Association uses the annex facilities of the Koranism Holy Temple in the Ai Country, an oval conference room, and at this moment a heavily guarded meeting is being held in the conference room, and the participants are all the supreme beings at the top of the Koranism in the Ai Country.
"The level of spiritual power in Dutan Town has exceeded the average level in the past hundred years, we have found 3 naturally awakened children in Dutan Town, these children have been secretly sent to the ancient city, we think this situation is rare, do you need to report it to Xiniu Hezhou, now the contradiction within the sect is very intense, so we have a special meeting to discuss. ”
A sage with a serious look on his face informed the participants of what the meeting was going to discuss.
"North of Dutan Town, has there been any change in the concentration of spiritual power?" asked a sage.
"From Dutan Town to the ancient city, the level of spiritual power is slowly rising, but it has not yet broken through the peak of nearly a hundred years. The sage looked through the information in his hand and replied slowly.
"Since the level of spiritual power in the entire continent is rising, I don't recommend informing Xiniu Hezhou, they will find out sooner or later, I think that using this time to try to reserve some strength for the sect is the most important, and it is recommended that all the supremes increase the density of patrolling the territories, the main purpose is to find those children whose mana has awakened. The Sage immediately spoke.
"What's going on over there in Tanzela?" asked a prophet, rubbing his long beard.
"Except for the intensification of border checks, nothing else has been found. The sage replied.
"I remember the last time a commissioner from Xiniu Hezhou went to the Great Rift Valley to investigate, did any news come back?"
"The commissioner once sent someone to inform us to arrange for manpower to help seal the Great Rift Valley, but you know the situation in Tanzeraye, and after prejudice of it, we decided not to send people over, so we did not arrange to negotiate with Tanzeraye. The sage replied. "The commissioner's messenger has returned to Xiniu Hezhou, but so far we have not received any news from Xiniu Hezhou. ”
"Is it possible? Let's think about it, is it possible that the increase in the level of spiritual power south of Dutan Town is related to the last expedition of Commissioner Xiniu Hezhou to the Great Rift Valley?" the Prophet glanced at the attendees.
"If this is the reason, I suggest that we still report to Xiniu Hezhou, since the messenger did not bring back the news of Xiniu Hezhou, it shows that Xiniu Hezhou still lacks enough attention to the current situation, and our report may be able to serve a certain warning role. The Prophet twisted his long beard and said lightly.
"Why? Isn't it a good thing that the level of spiritual power has risen? Why should they let Xiniu Hezhou's spiritual power be kicked in? Their spiritual power in Xiniu Hezhou has dried up, if they know that our spiritual power level in Nanzhan Prefecture has increased, they will definitely have trouble. A Sage asked.
"Have you forgotten the teachings of the original scriptures? Sometimes poison can also be coated in sugar! If we don't report to Xiniu Hezhou, it means that all the good and bad of this incident will be borne by us, but if we report, the spiritual power is still transmitted to Xiniu Hezhou through Nanzhan Prefecture, how much loss will we have?" the prophet said dissatisfiedly.
"I agree with the Prophet!" said the sage who supported the meeting, his eyes lit up.
"I agree!" "I agree!" ...... Everyone in the room agreed with the Prophet.
One kilometer north of the Great Rift Valley in Nanzhan Prefecture, Asu and Tong Jie were hiding in a bush, Asu closed his eyes, his expression was changing slightly, as if he was probing his mental power, and Tong Jie was looking around nervously.
"My spiritual power can only reach a position about five kilometers below the Great Rift Valley, and further down there is not very clear, except for the strong spiritual power, I really don't see anything abnormal?" After a while, Aso opened his eyes.
"I still think we should inform the Southern Zhanbu State Magicians Association, at least they will send some people too, just the two of us, the strength is still too thin. Tong Jie said with some apprehension.
"Inform them?" Aso shook his head disdainfully, "They do have some powerful characters, but if you want them to come, you always have to have a meeting, a discussion, a trade-off of interests, thinking it's a good thing, everyone has sharpened their heads and wants to come, thinking it's a bad thing, one will push more than the other, instead of waiting for them to come, we've already surveyed this place several times." ”
"To be honest, I'm also scared by you, Commissioner Zheng Fang's strength is definitely much stronger than mine, I really don't understand what is down there, even he can't settle it?
"Don't go down. Just monitor it outside, Zheng Fang is not a person who does things without leaving a head and tail, since he has not come up until now, it can only mean that something has happened below that even he can't control the situation. What if this rift valley is like a bottomless pit, swallowing one by one? We are still waiting for Zheng Fang to send back news on the periphery. Tong Jie shook her head and refused.
Asu turned his head and glanced at Tong Jie, he really wanted to tell Tong Jie that since Zheng Fang hadn't come up from the Great Rift Valley for so long, there was a chance that he would have been buried under this Great Rift Valley, and if Zheng Fang died, in fact, the two of them were here, and it would be useless at all.
However, seeing Tong Jie's belief that Zheng Fang did not have an accident, Asu also held back the words that came to his mouth, to be honest, this job is not difficult, sitting here, breathing rich spiritual power, he can completely open his cultivation, I don't know how much better than his cultivation environment in Xiniu Hezhou, just cultivate, no matter how much he cares.
"Dididi...... Asu's identity card came with a rapid dripping sound, which is a newly developed function of the conference room that Xiniu Hezhou has just rebuilt, remote transmission.
Asu took out the identity card and entered the mana, and lines of handwriting appeared on the identity card. Looking at the identity card, Aso frowned.
"Hey! Hua Guo has sent a message to you, asking you to go back quickly. Asu put away his identity card and said to Tong Jie on the side.
"Go back, what should Zheng Fang do?" Tong Jie frowned when she heard this, and she looked at the Great Rift Valley in the distance hesitantly.
