Chapter 681: Countdown to the Decisive Battle [7]
.
On the blue sky,.
Mt. Haigal, which has been lonely for many years, finally ushered in the grand ceremony of shaking the past and the present, and the statue of the god of war that is integrated with the mountain and stone also seems to show a smile of relief from under the mask.
As the No. 1 actor in the Jieqiu ceremony, the Divine Comedy Shaman was dressed in retro clothes and respectfully buried the prayer text written on the jade stone under the "Avenue of Stars" paved with black mirrored volcanic rock.
The so-called "retro dress" refers to a more primitive and nostalgic classicist outfit, but from the actual situation, today the whole body is completely **, only with a skull necklace around his neck, and a leopard skin around his waist Lao Liu, the shape is really barbaric.
It is quite a tedious thing to complete the entire Jieqiu ceremony, and today's Beamon Kingdom has long been weak, if it weren't for the fact that there are only a few generations of scholars who have studied the etiquette system and have a long family history, I am afraid that today Liu Zhenzhen and the Beamon Kingdom will have a big foreign appearance - when it comes to the difficulty and profundity, the dress system is definitely more excessive than the mysterious magic, and a special religious ceremony like Jieqiu is sacred and noble, even if the ritual system is not implemented at all, it will always be used as a laughing stock by the international classics.
However, today's Jieqiu Haigal ceremony not only did not make Beamon look foreign, but made all the guests who came to watch the ceremony feel inferior.
In front of the giant statue of Campas on the holy mountain of Hyjal, there are two altars of heaven and earth, surrounded by walls for ten miles, and a shrine hall is set up in the middle: the four altars of Danxi east and west, in order to worship the sun", the stars, and the stars. Outside the door of the shrine. Eight altars in the east and west, in order to worship the mountains, the ocean, the wind, clouds, thunder, rain, the emperors of the past dynasties, the spirits of the dead, the gods of the world. The east altar is also equipped with a costume treasure hall, which is the place to pay tribute to the demon pets of the past dynasties, and the southwest is the palace. It is a buffet venue, and there is a kagura and a sacrifice house in the south corner to pray and worship the god of war.
It takes a full six hours to complete all the sacrificial procedures, and all kinds of tedious and pedantic things in it are beyond the imagination of ordinary people.
What is the main measure of the degree of development of a civilization?
Isn't it just to look at the well-behaved dress system!
Whether it is a human being who claims to be the highest civilization of the Aegean, or an elf who has a penchant for red tape, how can he ever have such a cumbersome and complicated etiquette as Beamon? As soon as Jieqiu came out, if there were still people who continued to think that Beamon was a barbaric race in the flood era, they were really blind people with no long eyes.
Everyone else is going crazy with envy. Liu Zhenzhen was bitter.
This old man's understanding of Jieqiu is still at the point of stopping on the ** city tower, waving his hand and shouting in Hunan accent, "The Chinese silver people have stood up ...... since then". It wasn't until he personally experienced this incomparably terrifying, incomparably complicated and incomparably complex dress code that he understood what the real dregs of feudalism was, and why so many great Chinese men went forward one after another to swear to sweep the emperor into a chicken, a tile, and a dog.
As early as three days before Jieqiu, Lao Liu had already started to abstain from eating under the supervision of the ceremonial official, not Guoguo secretly caught two guinea pigs to let him re-learn to survive in the wild. I don't know if he will become the first god of war believer to die of hunger and thirst in the Jieqiu ceremony.
If abstinence is a return to the basics, a worship of the god of war, then burning incense, praying, foot circle, and abstinence for three days in a row is a kind of torture for himβthis work is really not done by man.
It's the day of the Kaigaoka Shori. At dawn, he carried out various sacrificial activities under the guidance of the ceremonial officials, and it was not until sunrise and noon that he basically completed the main procedures of the Jieqiu ceremony, and his body and mind were completely impotent, and he was definitely more tired than starting a war.
"Bring the god of war to pay tribute!" Alas, when the Divine Comedy shaman pressed the handprint on the "Avenue of Stars", the penguin officials stretched their necks and sang in unison, which was the last important procedure, and after the end, the members of the summer palace guards left their handprints on the "Avenue of Stars" one by one, and the big guys could go to the palace to have a casual meal.
The two magically branded, stiff "Batiz Lava Monsters" and "Saltwing Lizards", were dragged by the warriors of the Summer Palace to the "Walk of Fame" next to the sacrifice. Six golden dwarves "hummed oil" carried two huge marble tablets and smashed them to the ground at the same time.
Lao Liu floated his fingers at the second and third young people.
Fathers and sons, according to the ancient laws and regulations of the Jieqiu ceremony, if there are no special circumstances, Lao Liu cannot interfere in all the slaughtering work in Haijal Mountain today, and can only be done by his son.
The strange ethical relationship between the twin flounder blood baby and the Beamon Divine Comedy shamanic is one of the topics that many people talk about before and after dinner; The second and third young are the crystallization of the love between the swan chief priest Mourinho and the ice phoenix Don Berkina, which should be undoubted; But the second and third young are also blood babies cultivated by Lao Liu with "blood feeding", and they do have the blood of the Divine Comedy shaman flowing in their bodies, from this point of view, there is no doubt about their father-son status and blood relationship with Liu Zhenzhen.
Liu Yiku, Liu Sitian are still in infancy, Katyusha, Guoguo, Materazzi and Wentai Claire, and the air in their minds are not biological heirs, so the work of replacing their father's slaughtering animals fell on the immature shoulders of the second and third young people.
The second and third young men who were savagely dressed with their father refused the daggers handed by the warriors of the summer palace, and the brothers had very little strength, and they used the daggers to slaughter the "Batiz Lava Monster" and the "Saltwing Flying Lizard", which was tantamount to tickling these two high-level demonic beasts.
The two of them used a huge area of "mesh lightning".
The sudden accumulation of thunderclouds in the sky caused the "Batiz Lava Monster" and "Saltwing Lizard" to suffer only one heavy blow, and completely turned into corpses covered in black web scars.
Prince Karn nodded as he watched from the sidelines.
During the Battle of Oil Hill, His Majesty Richard had entrusted him with two "singing crystals" that he had handed over to Lord Mourinho; His Majesty didn't say anything at the time, but told Prince Lionheart that the Swan Priest would know what to do with the two 'Singing Crystals'. Now it seems that there has been no pro-** flow through the swan main priest and the divine comedy shaman. There is indeed a tacit understanding that is difficult for others to touch.
"God of War-I have seen that it is our sacrifice to you, Lu, the second and third young brothers half-knelt on the ground, and prayed milkily to the two demonic beast corpses.
The Aegean masters who watched the ceremony around were all terrified.
What are these two big little boys?
Counting Mo'er, Fei Lengcui already has three powerhouses that can communicate with the clouds and thunder elves, could it be that the "Singing Crystal" in this world has opened a wholesale store on the red clay high slopes?
An even more amazing scene is yet to come. After the prayer, the second and third young men closed their eyes, as if they were sucking in the smoke of cigars scattered in the air, and one of them swallowed a wisp of smoke like a veil of fog into his nose.
The guests were suddenly amazed.
The twin flounder blood babies are now clearly absorbing the soul power of the demonic beast, and this cultivation method obviously belongs to the criticized, extremely evil, and intolerant of the righteous path, depraved magic!
If it were the other twin brothers who openly used the magic of depravity, maybe there would be an Aegean master who would come forward and do the right thing for the sky, but the second and third young were the princes of Fei Leng Cui, so everyone could only see it as if they couldn't see it.
The swan chief priest Mourinho, the ice phoenix Tang Belkina, and the masters of Jade Mining City all changed their faces.
Although Lao Liu's shadow spell that he comprehended after he advanced to the Holy Sky Mage in the Demon Realm has been hiding from the outside world. Even there are not many people who know about it within Beamon, but the second and third young have been staying with their Ice Phoenix mother a few days ago, and only recently have they returned to live in Fei Lengcui Elementary School. I could guess with my toes that the reason why the little brothers were now absorbing soul power must be because Richard had recently taught them a kind of depraved magic!
Liu Zhenzhen was a little embarrassed, he didn't expect that once the habit of dolls was formed, it would be so regardless of the occasion. It would be so pure and straightforward.
Pity the hearts of parents all over the world, the second and third young babies, who can't always accompany the blood babies around them, have always been Lao Liu's most unreassuring heart disease - this is not whether the swan priest and the ice phoenix have the strength to shelter the little brothers from the wind and rain. It's a nervous dad who can't contain licking the calf affectionately.
In the opinion of this nervous father, since the second and third young people can't get their own comprehensive protection, just having "singing crystals, I'm afraid it's not enough to defend themselves, as the old saying goes, many skills are not pressing, so he simply took advantage of his leisure to teach the twin brothers the four ** techniques of blood, flower, spider silk and shadow - depraved magic is not taboo, Liu Zhenzhen really didn't care too much, he always thought that the elements have nothing to do with good and evil. It is impossible for a mage who practices genuine magic to be pure in heart, and a mage who cultivates a fallen spell is all heinous.
For most of the month before the Jieqiu ceremony was held, the brave father led the second and third young men to hunt in the underground world, and it only took six days to raise the two brothers' two major fallen magic, the Earth Shadow and the Blood Blood, to the level of the Chinese law - just ask, which lineage of genuine magic can be easier to advance and faster than the fallen magic in the early stage?
However, the canon is the canon, the consensus is the consensus after all, and the cultivation of depraved magic will always be like adultery between men and women, which is obviously a good thing that you and I want, but in the eyes of the world, it is synonymous with unorthodoxy and self-obscenity.
In fact, Lao Liu didn't understand this truth, and he wasn't ready to make a big fuss, and Xiangxiang Yudou told the heavens, earth, people and gods about the blood baby's cultivation of depraved spells, and it was his purpose to make a fortune in a muffled voice.
However, this accident punctured his pig urine and painted skin.
"Daddy, there will be a blood moon praise ceremony on March 4 next year, can the two of us "blood feed" the blood baby by ourselves? Er Shao grabbed Lao Liu's arm and asked with a shake.
"Daddy, look at my shadow attendant." The big Pichu shook his fat head and smiled and showed the black shadow clone to his father's appreciation.
The eyebrows of all the guests were raised in the shape of a fence, and from a distance, there were black lines.
Boy!
This pair of living treasures has cultivated more than one Fallen Spell!
There was no violent attack of the six gods and no reprimand, Mourinho and Don Belkina immediately took away the second and third young people, and before leaving, Binghuang also glanced at Lao Liu fiercely.
The masters of Jade Mining City also withdrew one after another, returning in a big way through the magic teleportation array.
Because the brothers and sisters of the Jose family still had to leave their palm prints on the "Avenue of Fame", the old Duke of BrΓΌckner hesitated again and again, and finally did not take all the grandchildren away. somewhat saved Lao Liu some face.
β***οΌβ In the face of this kind of unfortunate emergency, Lao Liu could only mumble and curse, and he couldn't tear his face to force the second and third young to stay.
"Don't look around...... Summer Palace warriors, continue to press your palm prints......" King Thrall shook his head and smiled bitterly. What the hell is this called, before the Jieqiu ceremony was officially completed, there was a premature exit from Beamon, isn't this a joke for humans, dwarves and elves......
"I only knew that you were a bloodline master, but I didn't expect that Your Majesty also cultivated another series of Qimen spells......"
Elder Ferdinand, the immortal bird with turquoise spiral eyebrows, leaned over with a smile and asked Lao Liu, "...... Don't Cai know what kind of force is the cultivation place of Qimen spells in this series? β
"Elder Su Luan, you have an overreputation, it's just a shadow spell that doesn't come to the table." Liu Zhenzhen was very satisfied with Elder Ferdinand's wording, and the other party avoided the sensitive word "fallen magic" and renamed it "Qimen Spell", which really made him feel a confidant in his depression.
"Shadow? What kind of spell is this? What exactly is cultivated? β
"It's a spell that specializes in cultivating the shadow of the deity, and as the level increases. The Shadow Squire can also gradually have physical combat power comparable to the main body, and can also become invisible and immune to physical attacks, once defeated. Every day that passes, it will automatically revert. Liu Zhenzhen smiled bitterly: "Maybe there are other uses, such as inheriting the magic power of the deity, etc., but I haven't figured it out yet, so I'm not sure." β
"Shadowsain sounds more powerful than the undead, though the undead are immune to all physical attacks just like Shadows. However, it is impossible for the undead to heal automatically after being defeated by magic. Phoenix Maiden Cen Karen couldn't help but interject: "I think the shadow attendant derived from the shadow spell seems to be more suitable for the title of undead than the undead!" β
"If you don't understand, don't talk nonsense! Richard's shadow servants under the earth are not comparable to those crappy undead! Elder Ferdinand wrinkled his face and taught the Phoenix Maiden in a serious manner: "Didn't you hear what Your Majesty said? As the level of shadow spells continues to increase. The shadow clone can gradually have a physical combat power comparable to the ontology, you don't want to think about how powerful the physical combat power is now under Richard's crown! Even if the shadow servant under the crown only has one-tenth of the physical combat power of the crown, it is not comparable to the undead, right? β
"I'm really ashamed of your words, because my Shadow Squire already has half of the physical combat power and combat skills of the main body." Liu Zhenzhen took over the conversation with a sad face: "What's even more unfortunate is that because I have the two major ability realm enchantments of "Starry Sky Wings" and "Shrimp Kui True Appearance", this damn shadow servant can now spread his wings and eight arms, and he can also command the shadow clone of the dragon and tiger force servant...... Before, it couldn't ...... Alas...... Blame me for why I draw on the soul power of the Desert Dragon Knight and Magus at Witherspoon...... It's no wonder why I want to absorb the soul power of the "Six-Eyed Blue Fire Dragonfly" in the Demon Realm...... Alas, there is also that fifth-order sea dragon soul...... What bad luck! β
"That seems like a good thing, right?" His Royal Highness Tang Zang died of laughter: "The more souls you absorb, the more advanced you are, shouldn't it be more beneficial to your shadow spells?" β
"Shadow Squires can inherit some of their combat skills and fighting instincts. It is already a limited awakening of self-consciousness! Rommel was also surprised: "I also practice shadow magic, although it is not the same as Richard's shadow magic, but the laws of the elements should be the same, the shadow attendant of our treasure book imam is to use the shadow of the killed object as a personal guard, the more wisdom he inherits before his death, the stronger the combat power is!" Why is it that the stronger your shadow servant, the more unhappy you are? β
"It's a good thing to be by my side, run to the enemy's side, do you think I'm still happy now?" Liu Zhenzhen rolled his eyes angrily: "Obislachi, it's a shame that I've worked so hard to cultivate it for so long!" β
"How is that possible...... How could the Shadow Attendant defect? Rommel was stunned.
"Richard's shadow attendants have indeed rebelled." King Thrall shrugged his shoulders regretfully: "Not long ago, the demons used the puppet magic to turn our crown into a battle puppet, but they failed to succeed, but the shadow attendant under the crown gave the demons complete control. β
"Damn!" More than a hundred voices scolded in unison.
"It's dangerous." Agassi, the city lord of Dragon City, who was listening with relish, shook his Adam's apple, swallowed a mouthful of spit, and hurriedly stretched out his sleeves to wipe the waterfall sweat on his face - although this matter sounds simple, it really wants the demons to succeed in their treacherous schemes. Aegean is not dead now?
"The most frustrating thing is that now the mind of this shadow servant is still connected with Richard, and the Lich King over there is also linked to the shadow waiter's mind." His Majesty Thrall shrugged his shoulders again and smiled bitterly: "Now we Beamon want to start bilateral negotiations with the demons. This can be done directly through Mind and Shadow Attendant. β
"Damn!" More than two hundred voices scolded at the same time.
All the human beings frowned into weeds.
Shengxiao** Master Richard is known as the Aegean hand-to-hand combat saint rank, and he has always been dominant in the world with physical combat power, even if he only has half of his physical combat power, the shadow attendant is amazing! Especially if it is still a master with eight arms, can walk and fly, and carry a dragon and tiger shadow attendant with him! Moreover, this powerful shadow attendant can also be exempted from physical attacks, and can only be defeated by relying on the two major attack methods of elements and energy, but after defeating, it can be restored again - this thing is simply a copper pea that cannot be smashed and hammered!
If you want to completely eliminate this renegade shadow servant, I am afraid that the only way to eliminate the Richard crown or the Lich King can be forever troubled. However, it seems unrealistic to achieve these two goals......
"I've also heard of the spell of the stand-in puppet, which is said to be one of the ultimate arcane arts of the demons, and its function is no different from that of a forbidden spell. Your Majesty, you don't care about yourself too much, how can your body hair and skin fall into the hands of demons! Qingluan Elder Ferdinand frowned: "I'm very strange...... I'm sorry, I don't have any ill intentions, I just want to keep things on the track - supposedly the demons don't use this arcane. Once you use it, there is no chance of failure! β
"I don't know exactly why, but I know what shadow magic is. is still in a state of ignorance to cross the river by feeling the stones; Maybe it's because my shadow clone is high enough to take on the responsibility of replacing me with other people's mind control. Liu Zhenzhen smashed his mouth: "Speaking of which, the demon land's "stand-in puppet" only uses the hair and skin of the body to cast spells to control others, and my shadow is also an innate primitive part, and it can also communicate with my heart, it is definitely unrealistic to pay for my life, and it is not unreasonable to accept the spiritual prohibition of others for me, and it is not unreasonable to ...... it."
"This explanation is too unscientific and irresponsible." Rommel shook his head: "From what I know about shadow spells, there seems to be only one explanation for what happened to you - your shadow attendant has inherited a certain amount of combat knowledge from you. In other words, its autonomous consciousness has begun to awaken slightly, which means that it also has spiritual power, and it can already be called a ** life form! And when the Lich King's stand-in puppet spell is launched for remote control, it needs to face two spiritual power targets at once, and the spiritual power of the Shadow Servant is definitely not as strong as your own deity, so it suffered a priority attack, which led to a mutiny. β
After a pause, Rommel added: "One thing Richard is right, the shadow of your body is an innate part, not a living object created by the acquired elemental power of blood and force. Therefore, the stand-in puppet spell will find trouble for you and the Shadow Attendant, but it will not have anything to do with the Blood Attendant and the Force Attendant. β
"According to your logical reasoning, then if I practice shadow magic to a certain level, isn't it equivalent to having two physical bodies?" Liu Zhenzhen smiled dumbly: "And that shadow clone is still immortal, eternally young, has all the abilities of the deity, and can be restored after defeat?" β
"Your Earth Shadow magic has reached the extreme, maybe that's it." Rommel smiled: "Immortality is actually not difficult for shadow spells, not to mention anything else, look at me, if I am killed now, then I can still rely on the shadow clone to continue to survive, if it is not for the fact that there is still a light source that can disintegrate my shadow clone forever, then I am already equal to an immortal body?" β
"That's amazing!" The Tang Tibetans, who have a paranoid yearning mentality for immortality, smack their tongues one by one.
"I didn't expect it...... I really didn't expect it...... There is actually a kind of magic that is not strong in combat, but has special effects in other aspects...... This is beyond the role of the Elemental Wizards...... This is the ability that only the gods have...... 'The Aegean mages were also dumbfounded, frankly speaking, it was the shadow attendants under Richard who had strong combat power, if it was the shadow attendants cultivated by other saint-level mages, it would not be a big deal at all, but the final advanced form of this spell had to make people yearn for and reverie.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this is just Rommel's logical reasoning, not necessarily correct!" Liu Zhen secretly laughed in his stomach.
What immortality, what second body, it's all bullshit, as a proletarian atheist and has eaten the eggs of the tyrant, Lao Liu never thought about living with heaven and earth in the future. The only loss caused to him by the shadow attendant's rebellion was the weakening of his strength, but this weakening was harmless and completely bearable.
Seon lost his horse, how do you know if it is a blessing? Lao Liu feels that it is really appropriate to use this Chinese proverb to describe his gains and losses! Although the rebellion of the shadow attendant vomited blood, it also inadvertently made up for his usual weakness - in the past, he was a powerful magic warrior armed with magic weapons and dedicated to the action route, and to put it mildly, he was a dog meat who showed off his brutal force with the head of a saint-level mage!
Against the extreme path or super level, Lao Liu can still make a name for himself with the magic defense and amazing divine power of the body, but in the large-scale battle battlefield with the surging crowds, even if he takes out all the strength of the milk and the cave room, how many birdmen can he cut down with eight arms and an axe?
A qualified mage unleashes a large magic, enough for him to die of exhaustion for half a day!
It's different now, I don't know what kind of nerve the demons have when they implement the stand-in puppet spell, and they actually use their mental power to remotely control how to release the "torn doomsday,ββ this is the legendary six-winged king Christian during the first god and demon war, and the spiritual power storm spell invented by the Bell throne is the secret of the demon world's silver pupil, it can neither be regarded as magic nor ability, but a top-level mastery that cannot be specifically classified!
This special attack mode has a certain similarity with cooking, and you can't see it, only if you master the unique tricks inside, can you enter the house.
The shadow attendant and Lao Liu are still in the same heart until now, and the demon remote control guides the shadow attendant how to release the "torn doomsday, isn't it equivalent to indirectly referring to Lao Liu?"
With the Shadow Attendant's mental power Hertz, the "Torn Doomsday" released is not as much as the static electricity on the sweater, and the lethality is about zero. Lao Liu is different, he is a famous spiritual power warehouse, for tens of thousands of years, what generation of silver pupil kings in the demon world can have the silver filaments in the eyes of the silver pupil heavenly king so thick that they can form a doji?
God pity!
In the past, no matter how massive Liu Zhenzhen's spiritual power was, it was no different from the ears of a deaf man, and he was given a handful of charcoal by the demons, but now that he has learned the "Torn Doomsday", he can finally pat his chest proudly, and confidently regard himself as a saint-level mage who can unleash large-scale killing magic, rather than a warrior who fights the world purely by brute force - although he has not yet figured out how to control the use of a small-scale version of "Torn Doom" can only be used as a one-time clearance sale, but he is quite satisfied with being able to do this.
The human sigh and Liu Zhen's dark coolness were forcibly interrupted by the arrival of the envoys of the Sea Clan and the Demon Clan
