Chapter 405: The Gods Gather
The two god-kings combined and descended on Mount Delos, the sacred realm of the sun, at dawn the next day.
At this moment, the clouds and clouds of the holy realm were radiant, countless gods loomed, and loud chants resounded throughout the heavens and the earth.
Of course, these hymns praising the sun god were also composed by Xia Guo, and then let the god of music under the command of the sun god play them himself.
Songs reverberate through the clouds, and spirits dance in the sky, raising thrones for the gods and placing fruits.
The earth was full of countless sunflowers, the golden flowers were aligned with the direction of the solar car, and the priests and shrine maidens of the Sun Temple, dressed in uniform white robes and holding canons and scepters, were standing at the door of the main hall to receive guests from all directions to the judgment venue.
Looking at the sea of golden flowers, the Eternal Dream God King's face made waves, and there were a few more surprises and memories.
The Origin God King was surprised, "Yesterday didn't have these, it seems that they didn't work in vain this night." ”
The two god-kings incarnated as mortals and came to the temple as earth travelers.
The priests did not refuse to come, and a priestess stepped forward to greet them as they went to the venue. Wearing a crown of beads on her head and a gold belt around her waist, this priestess was also the highest-ranking priestess of the Temple of the Sun.
She led the two of them onto a two-wheeled cart carried by a golden wolf, and also presented a copy of the Radiant Classics.
"This is the doctrine of our temple, and if you are bored, you can check out the canon to pass the time. ”
This was instructed by Du Lisi himself. Be sure to give religious texts to guests from all over the earth to help the sun god spread his teachings.
On the way, King Eternal Dream flipped through a few pages at random, and when he saw the familiar doctrine and ideas, he sighed and closed the book.
Light, order, and justice are all common doctrines and concepts used by the gods of the sun attribute.
The priestess was a little distressed by the God King's arbitrary shelving of the canon, after all, there were not many of them here. It takes time to publish in Xia Guo, and it is impossible to meet the needs in one go.
"Another canon was wasted. ”
The priestess stopped talking and led the two to the meeting.
The venue for this judgment of the gods was chosen in front of a cliff. This side of the cliff is carved with an image of the sun god, also known as the "Delos Cliff", which translates to "Bright Cliff".
After the two god kings took their seats, they were facing the statues of the gods embedded in the cliffs.
The statue of the god is based on the natural stone body of the cliff, and then carved by skilled craftsmen, the whole statue is 300 meters high, it is a seated statue wearing a crown and holding a scepter.
The sun god sits on a throne formed by a cliff, and the crown above his head is a large piece of golden ore, which forms a natural crown and wears it on top of the god's head. And in his hand he holds the iron scepter given by the Church of the Craftsman God, symbolizing the incomparable divine power.
This statue is the most famous sight in the Sanctuary of Delos.
The Eternal Dream God King stared at the idol in a daze, and the priestess explained with a proud smile, "This statue was carved by the first great priest five hundred years ago. He began as a devout follower of the Sun God, but wandered aimlessly after being expelled from the country by the First Dynasty of Raymond. ”
One day he came to this cliff, and he looked at the cliff in discouragement, intending to commit suicide the next day.
But just as dawn broke, he saw the sun shine on the cliffs, the halo forming a humanoid silhouette. ”
"After seeing the natural wonders illuminated by the dawn, the great priest was enlightened, and the whole person suddenly became enlightened, the depression in his heart was swept away, and the whole person was rejuvenated with a new West. Later, his family also arrived from the First Dynasty, and the family was reunited under the cliff. ”
Because the high priest believed that it was the sun god who dissuaded him from committing suicide, he was grateful and took his family to live here and build a statue of the sun god. ”
"Oh, it's actually man-made?" Seeing this huge god statue with a height of three hundred meters, the Origin God King smiled: "Could it be that this first generation of great priests still has demigod-level abilities?"
"No, the first Grand Priest had almost no magic abilities. This is their family carving with their own hands. ”
"Indeed, this is a huge project that is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and it can even be said to be meaningless. Many passing gods had laughed at the dullness of the high priests, believing that mere mortals could not do such things. ”
"Then my lord came to him in the form of an old man. ”
"The high priest replied, 'Although I am old, I have sons and grandsons, and my son will have his grandsons.' In this way, the children and grandchildren are endless. Even if my generation can't build a statue for the Sun God, I believe that my children and grandchildren will one day build a true statue of the Sun God." ”
Above the cliff, the gods sit on the throne of clouds, looking down on onlookers from other directions from this side of the cliff. They also heard the words of the priestess and the two god-kings below.
The Frost God yawned, "Have the families of Mount Delos started promoting this again?"
The Lichun God's gaze swept towards the Sun God camp in the middle of the clouds and mist, and said lightly: "After all, isn't the reason why the Deluo Mountain Sacred Domain is called the Holy Domain is because of this statue that can be called a wonder of heaven and earth?"
After the story told by the priestess, there is an epilogue.
The first great priest of Delos, who carved the statue of the sun god, relied on this miracle to comprehend the divinity, and after hundreds of years of singing by mortals, he worshipped him as the god of carving, and also one of the hundred gods of art under the command of the sun god.
It is precisely because this statue involves not only the sun god, but also the birth of a god, that it is called one of the wonders of heaven and earth. Barely comparable to this statue of the sun god is the bronze statue of the god of war made by the kingdom of Bado, or the statue of the king of heaven in ancient times.
However, the statue of the king of heaven has long been destroyed by the mother of the earth, and the curse of the earth does not allow anyone to use the things of the earth to shape the statue of the king of heaven. Therefore, at present, His Majesty does not have a great idol of his own.
The Frost God looked envious and said, "Great god statue...... I really want to have a big idol of myself. ”
The Great Statue of God is a treasure of the earth, a symbol of mortal piety, and a man-made miracle that the gods dream of. But those who possess this kind of thing are all top-level gods, and there is still a long way to go from these two ordinary gods.
The god of Lichun was silent.
Not long ago, Yuan Xi was promoted to the upper god, which was undoubtedly a bombshell for them young gods.
I don't know how many gods have thought about it because of this, and they have moved their minds differently.
At this moment, Yuan Xi was also pulled by the three sisters and asked about the higher god.
"How did my sister feel after she was promoted?"
"What's it like? I just feel that there is more divine power, and the bloodline is more pure. ”
At the mention of divine blood, Yu Hong's eyes lit up: "Now the purity of your divine blood can be compared to the secondary gods such as the father god and the mother god?"
"It may be a little inferior, but the genesis bloodline in my body has begun to awaken, and I can feel a part of the new genesis inheritance. ”
For example, the Heavenly King's control of the wind, the Earth Mother's cognition of earthquakes, these destructive powers have all turned into Yuan Xi's natural powers.
Moreover, Yuan Xi's posture of being a god gave birth to a god son, and the purity of his bloodline was definitely stronger than that of the ordinary god period.
Yu Hong thought thoughtfully: "Looking at it this way, the bloodline purification method studied by the First Dynasty is still very useful?"
The eldest sister shook her head and said, "The bloodline purification of the Central Kingdom is useless for mortals, but it is useless for us gods, otherwise why would the ancestral gods find another way?"
The decline in the purity of the bloodline caused by the reproduction of the gods was noticed as early as the birth of Motoxi's generation.
The gods came up with various ways to solve this problem. Divine medicine, divine arts, and even divine fire exercises. Even the thriving bloodline sealing method of the Tumu Dynasty was essentially an experiment of the gods. However, the experiments of the Tumu dynasty could not have much effect on the gods, and in a sense they had failed.
But it can pave the way for ordinary people to become gods, and it can also prevent the extinction of the gods.
This is also the reason why the second Tumu dynasty worshipped the god of wind, but the gods of all walks of life still acquiesced and connived at the Tumu dynasty.
Because the Tumu Dynasty is the orthodoxy of the gods, it is their hope to inherit the gods, and it is closely linked to the luck of the gods.
"The third sister was promoted this time, and those storm goddesses no longer dared to fight with their sisters. Qing Ling waved his little fist: "Now that my sister is going to take away their priesthood, I believe they don't dare to say anything." ”
Yuan Xi was promoted to the upper god with the "destructive power of the wind", and all kinds of wind phases that symbolized natural disasters were put under her name. Hurricanes, Storms...... She no longer cares about the direction of the Eight Great Wind Lords, and completely manipulates it by her own will.
It is also now that Yuan Xi has the right to handle his marriage. Even the Lord of the North Wind could not manipulate the daughter of the same superior god at will.
The four sisters talked and laughed, their eyes falling on the high platform below.
At the bottom of the cliff, the priests of the Temple of Judgment personally watch over the three totem poles. And in the divine fire rising from the high platform, the god of judgment dressed in golden light has already appeared with the balance in hand.
Yuan Xi looked at this scene and secretly thought, "I don't know what Ji Le's preparations are going on?"
"This trial must be won. ”
