Volume 1 [Flame Chapter] Dragon Death Chapter 184 Dragon Celebration (61): The First Ceremony
"It's finally activated, and the dragon's blood is still one step away, and the first of the five major rituals is considered complete. The little emperor stared at the untouched statue in front of him and said.
"Yes, the Demon Source Masters of the Empire all say that only the blood of the dragon clan can open the realm belonging to the dragon clan. However, grandpa once said that dragon blood brings the world not only opportunities but also dangers. Ling Yan took the words of the little emperor and walked quickly from among the soldiers behind the little emperor.
"Isn't it true that the empire has cultivated so many Demon Source Masters to let them study philosophical issues, opportunities and challenges, and now that we have truly displayed all the legends and illusions in front of us, what does he mean by the opportunity and danger?" said the little emperor with his back to Ling Yan, looking a little angry.
As the emperor of the empire, in Longqing has come to an important step to link the dragon realm with reality, any theory will be meaningless, only quantifiable and accurate information is what he needs to pay attention to and pay attention to at any time.
"The dragon's blood awakens the dragon's power as an opportunity, and the resulting reappearance of light and darkness is a danger. Your Majesty, you don't know yet, your ruling city of Gubin has already stepped into the double illusion formed by the intersection of light and darkness. ”
"What?" the little emperor exclaimed loudly when he heard the last half of the sentence, regardless of his image and identity.
"That's true, and Yan Sheng was killed by him. Lingyan added.
"How could it be? The Deep Blue I sent down only reported Yan Sheng's disappearance, and he was actually killed by Lin Gu. If Ringu had rebelled, wouldn't it be the slightest accident here, and my Longqing would have collapsed completely. The little emperor panicked in disbelief and turned his body back to look directly at Ling Yan.
After a minute-long inner thinking and game, the little emperor's hands and the corners of his mouth, which had trembled slightly due to shock and atmosphere, turned into a calm and angry again after a few seconds.
"But an accident here is impossible after all, I have already arranged everything inside and out, as long as this first ceremony is opened, I will be able to transmit information to the outside world, and as long as I say a word, Deep Blue will complete all my orders. They were all the most secretive assassins of the Empire, and how could the Dragon and the Empire be destroyed at the hands of such a man. ”
"Yes, Your Majesty, in fact, anyone who hears this news will feel angry and shocked. Anger blinds us, shock can detract from our behavior. The Prime Minister and the army of the Empire are now in the central square, and naturally those with dark intentions will not be allowed to succeed. But Your Majesty, you still have to be quick. Lingyan explained and urged.
However, due to his identity, he could not approach the little emperor and stand side by side with him, and could only show his judgment and analysis as an imperial non-commissioned officer.
However, this judgment is also in line with the actual situation at the moment, I don't know whether it is the surrounding scorching magma and flames that have become extremely restless in the hearts of the people present, or the excitement that the great plan to release the dragon clan is about to be completed, in short, the current little emperor is not like the original calm, scheming and proud ruler of the empire.
"But don't worry, there's still time," the little emperor said, bowing his head and picking up the uniform grapefruit, and glancing at the mechanical watch he brought here, "Well, three minutes." If Ye Mingyuan hadn't arrived after three minutes, then wait for him when the second or third ritual begins. ”
"Yes, Your Majesty, but time here is still a little slower than the outside world, and it won't take much time to wait until the ceremony is all over before going out. Lingyan added with the knowledge he had gained from Riva.
His series of additions and explanations made the little emperor in front of him, who had calmed down, have a better impression of him. After all, there are not many talents in the empire who have a combination of a suitable physique and the wisdom to study all things.
Especially in such a closed situation, he seems so loyal.
The little emperor who turned around and resumed staring at the dragon statue secretly made up his mind that when all this was successfully completed, the fire spirit behind him would be able to touch the supreme scepter that belonged to the imperial general.
The huge dragon statue still stood majestically in front of everyone, and the small bubbles in the magma from time to time and the crackling sound of the flames still reminded everyone that this was the realm of the dragon family.
Although separated by a flame barrier caused by a statue, the crispness and tranquility not far away still could not be completely obscured by a layer of flames.
In just three minutes, the people present did not make any more noise, but these elements that made people feel extremely restless could not alleviate the tension of touching death just now.
Finally, after the second hand of the little emperor's mechanical watch turned three times in succession, he turned around again.
On the long, winding red path, there was no possibility of any human passing through, even if it was they who had just passed.
"Don't wait, it's time for the first ceremony. The time for the preparation of the second ceremony can be a little more, and it will always wait until Ye Mingyuan comes over. The little emperor said to the people behind him, turning his body back in the direction of the statue again.
The bottle of viscous fluid filled with Ye Mingyuan's blood had already been held in the hands of the little emperor, and it was already extremely hot.
After hesitating for a second, the little emperor easily removed the cork from the glass bottle and threw it on the ground on the side. After jumping and tumbling several times, the plug fell straight into the hot magma, and was never to be found again under a wisp of green smoke and flames.
"The blood that belongs to the dragons, please bring liberation to the dragons. When the blood comes into contact with your power, the cage or tomb will be gone, and a future awaits both the Fire Empire and the Dragons. Now, unleash the power that belongs to the Creator and the depths of the universe. The little emperor prayed, pinched the mouth of the glass bottle steadily, and threw his right hand violently towards the chest of the statue that was filled by the Yanding Stone and was emitting red light.
Bang!
When the glass bottle came into contact with the Yanding Stone, it emitted a crisp sound that belonged to this era, and then the dragon blood that splashed outward after the bottle shattered was like a surging sound like the sea.
The position of the chest of the statue, which was watered and rendered by blood, seemed to have some kind of life and squirmed faintly from time to time, and the mist formed by the faint blood was like a small elf, instantly attached to the entire chest of the statue, and spread away in other places.
The Little Emperor, Ling Yan, and the twenty or so Imperial soldiers behind him seemed to be watching a fantasy show, and one of them stared at everything, even opening his mouth wide, wanting to vent his shock and admiration.
"This is the blood of the dragon clan, this is the power of the dragon realm. The little emperor marveled, and he couldn't find more words to describe the scene that made him wonder and shock.
Even his Chinese teacher had already taught him all the words of praise when he was enlightened ten years ago.
In less than five minutes, those tiny pulsing elves and wriggling beings from time to time had all covered the statue, and with the help of the Yanding Stone that radiated outwards, the original black and red statue that looked very old had been transformed into a huge dragon that emitted a bright red light.
Before all the people looking down at the statue could express their admiration, the statue seemed to be unable to hold it back, and towards the position in front of the little emperor, it concentrated the light of its whole body, forming a bright red ray.
"Your Majesty, danger!" Ling Yan shouted, hurriedly pulling the little emperor who was still looking up backwards.
Rumble!
A powerful explosion then appeared in everyone's ears, shattering all the dreams they had just been silent in shock, and pulling them back to reality.
However, the explosion in the Dragon Realm did not stir up any smoke and dust, and due to the existence of the Flame Stone, all the flames that should have been emitted were also absorbed.
At this moment, Yan Dingshi was like a child who couldn't get enough to eat, greedily devouring those elves formed by the mixture of dragon blood and flames.
When the flames had cleared, the statue began to crack, eventually disintegrating and rolling into the boiling lava.
What remained in place was only a small crater at the location of the Yan Dingshi and the red ray just now.
"They're activated!" exclaimed the little emperor, pointing diagonally upward.
Looking in the direction, the Flame Stone was spitting out all the flames it had just contained.
As if it were just an instant, those flames condensed to form a dragon.
But compared to the statue just now, it still looks much smaller.
"Come back!" the little emperor called out to Yan Dingshi, and stretched out his right hand again, making a guiding motion.
And Yan Dingshi really looked like an elf at this time, as if he understood the call of the little emperor, and after sliding around the center in the air a few times, he slowly landed in the hands of the little emperor.
At the same time, the giant dragon formed by the flames then crouched down and stood tall, and after showing the posture of kneeling to the little emperor, it stayed in place and did not move.
"The first ritual has been completed, and the Dragon Realm will give us guidance on where the second ritual is located. We just have to wait and see. By the way, the time belonging to the dragons and us has been extended by another two hours. It's going to close after three and a half hours, so there's plenty of time. The little emperor said with excitement and excitement as he slowly retreated from the position of the flame dragon.
The center of the wide platform on which they all stood was the key to receiving the second guidance.
In the ever-changing dragon realm, an important point has been determined, and everything that follows will become as logical as the recorder wrote.
"We yearn for it. ”
Out of nowhere, a distant chant suddenly flashed in the ears of the little emperor and everyone, and the accompanying sound of the imperial guqin.
"Who is it?" Ling Yan asked in a loud voice.
However, as if ignoring their presence, the chant gradually showed its voice from far to near, completely in front of the little emperor.
That voice, to the little emperor's ears, didn't seem to come from the sky, but from the hot magma under his feet.
"Listen, that's probably the instruction. The little emperor stopped, and closed his eyes, feeling the beauty of the chant and the message it carried.
For a while, with the demonstration of the little emperor's movements, everyone, including Ling Yan, also closed their eyes and listened carefully.
The chant, as if with a deep soul, and as if it came from the realm of nothingness, told everything that belonged to it in the hot dragon realm:
"We yearn for,
We look forward to,
We watch,
But a glimmer of light in the darkness of the world,
When the light returns,
When the darkness gathers,
O balance of the world,
Where is it headed?
Wise human beings,
Mighty dragons,
Great machinery,
Thanks for this age of steam and magic,
All that is given to us. ”
