Chapter 2 Spiritualist Rituals
The sun is in the sky, the sky is cloudless, and it is a good time of year.
Every year at the turn of summer and autumn, Donghua Castle organizes a grand psychic ceremony for young people in the city who have reached the age of 16 to start the initial psychic ceremony, as long as the young people who are interested in being psychics can pay a small registration fee to participate in this grand event.
The widely spread psychic rituals in the Xuanling world are divided into two kinds, one is the most basic holding spirit, which is safe and convenient, that is, using the psychic technique to surrender and seal the spirit beast spirit weapon, and then communicate the essence of the spirit in its body, so as to obtain the talent and magic power of holding the spirit. However, the holding spirits with strong strength and potential are very rare, and they will not be easily subdued by psychics whose strength is lower than them, so most of the holding spirits will not bring much help to the psychic.
The second is to summon spirits with a certain risk, using a variety of cherished sacrifices, through the secret psychic summoning circle to summon the spirit objects in the other world that are close to the fluctuations of the psychic soul, and the psychic ceremony held every year in Donghua City is a huge psychic summoning array.
The potential and strength level of the summoning spirit are different from the visible holding spirits, with great uncertainty, it may be that after consuming a valuable sacrifice, only the spirit summons the broilers, chickens, pigs, and useless sundries that have no power in the other world, or it is also possible that the luck of the spirit against the sky can summon the best summoning spirit with the potential to break through the general level or even the king level.
But the summoning spirit is not only an investment risk that is disproportionate to the payout, but also a greater risk comes from the summoning spirit itself.
One end of the psychic summoning circle is the summoned spirit of another world, and the other end is the psychic himself, and the sacrifice and the circle are like weights and scales, and only when the two sides are equal in mass will they reach a balance to complete a successful summoning psychic. If the psychic itself is not strong enough, even if the summoned spirit is close to the psychic's soul fluctuations summoned from the other world, the psychic cannot provide the aura required to summon the psychic psychic, let alone a strong body to withstand the pressure on the body caused by the enhanced talent brought by the summoning spirit when the psychic is successful.
Then, the luck of the psychic to summon a powerful spirit will become the biggest bad luck for the psychic.
It is good to be drained by the sucking of spiritual energy, and it is okay if there is no psychic success, at least it can save his life. The worst thing is to survive the initial level, but under the talent engraved by the powerful summoning spirit, he can't withstand the explosion and dies.
The reason why the annual psychic ceremony in Donghua Castle costs precious sacrifices and aura so that every young person can have the opportunity to participate is because of the great possibility brought by the summoning spirit itself.
If the summoning spirit and the psychic are successfully matched to the psychic, the city lord's mansion and the major forces in the city will not hesitate to extend an olive branch and recruit them into their command. The summoning spirit potential is unlimited for psychic failure, and the major forces are even more happy to see it, and the excellent summoning spirit will laugh at it.
The annual psychic ceremony is a feast, and don't the young people and their families who participate in it know the dangers of participating in the psychic ceremony if they have not cultivated and perfected the psychic method since childhood, accumulated enough spiritual energy, and have not practiced physical exercises to forge a strong body?
Of course not, no one is stupid, but this is one of the few ways that civilians can change the fate of themselves and their families. As long as you can successfully summon the psychic at the ceremony, join a certain force to become a psychic, and obtain systematic psychic techniques and cultivation techniques, even if you are unfortunately fallen, the whole family and your descendants can master the power of the psychic to change your own destiny.
Weakness is original sin.
……
In a short time, as the golden crow sun in the sky continued to rise, the spiritual ceremony held by the Lu clan itself was about to begin.
Unlike the Donghua City Psychic Ceremony, which only summons psychics, the Lu clan has also prepared many holding spirits for many Lu disciples who participated in the initial psychic to choose from.
"It's the annual psychic ceremony again, and I'm very pleased to see you outstanding young people in the family, you are all the future pillars of the family." An old man in white with fluttering white hair, ruddy complexion, and shiny skin like a child floated down from the back of a black-crowned white crane with a wingspan of ten meters in the air, and landed on the high platform where the ceremony was held.
It was Lu Yuanchuan, the patriarch of the Lu clan, who was the peak general-level psychic master who made the Lu clan rise from an unknown small family in Donghua City a hundred years ago, and he was also a powerful figure when he was young.
"I won't say much, old man, I hope you little guys can psychic to your favorite summoning spirit." After Lu Yuanchuan came to the stage and encouraged the young people who were nervously looking forward to it, he finally announced the official start of the channeling ceremony.
"It's finally started, and this year's patriarch's opening speech has only been said for less than half an hour, and I'm really a little unaccustomed to it." On the high platform of the ceremony, a big man with red hair and red clothes, and a red lotus mark on his eyebrows burned like a flame.
"Huo Laosan, you have itchy skin again, although the patriarch is old, his ears are so ruthless, some time ago I went to Blue Misty Mountain to mine and eat soil, it seems that you haven't enjoyed enough."
The one who spoke was a middle-aged man with black hair in a green robe next to the big man of Angzang, who looked ordinary, but his detached temperament, especially a pair of blue eyes like the calm and deep of the sea, was impressive.
"It's the second elder, playing in the water." Lu Nanming, the red-haired and red-clothed Fire Elder among the Five Elements Elders of the Lu Clan, couldn't help but raise his voice, "Also, be careful that I and you are not done with the matter of Blue Misty Mountain again!" ”
"What's the matter, Elder Fire has a question about me asking you to go to the Blue Mist Mountain to preside over the affairs of the mine? Don't you think that I let me go to the mine not because your Fire Elder's fire cultivation is unmatched by the Dubu family, and the Red Flame Tiger King is so powerful that it is difficult to look down on the world, but because of my selfish revenge on the Qingfeng Cloud Crane who was stolen and eaten by your Red Flame Tiger King? Lu Yuanchuan glanced at the middle-aged man in the green robe beside Elder Lu Nanming and said, "Okay, Nan Ze, who doesn't know that he is still angry about losing to you in the previous competition between your Five Elements Elders, his fiery temper, don't tease him." ”
"Haha, okay patriarch, you also know that I have such a broken mouth, sometimes I just can't help it" Elder Lu Nanze of the Water Line laughed, "Old Huo, tell me, isn't it just that I won you once last time, why bother, Patriarch and Elder Mu We have lost I don't know how many times, and I haven't seen you mind so much." ”
As soon as he heard this, Lu Nanming became even more anxious, "You still have the face to say, I really can't beat the patriarch and the old wood, but how did you win that time?" Anyway, they are all high-level spirit general-level psychicists, you guy actually let your swamp giant crocodile turn all the places where we fought into swamps, and only then did you win my Flame Tiger King, it's too insidious, how can this convince me. ”
"Old fireman, haven't you heard of the soldiers who are not tired of deceit? I'm here to familiarize you with fighting in a disadvantaged environment, is it possible that you won't be able to touch the water when you fight with the enemy in the future? You should thank me. ”
"I'm so angry, old, thank you again? Do you think I don't have the means to restrain you from breaking the swamp, just to save face for your sake, saying that you are fat and panting, come on, find a place, and see if I don't cook all your little crocodile or other small seafood. ”
"Ahem, ahem, the two grandchildren are so old, and they still look like children, what do they look like! Take good care of the psychic array, lest those little guys psychic come up with a great summoning spirit, and it will not be good to be in a hurry. Lu Yuanchuan looked at the two unreliable old children beside him with a posture of not going to find a place to fight after a while, and his head hurt a little, so he really didn't have to worry about it.
Lu Ke looked at the appearance of the water and fire elders on the high platform of the ceremony who were about to fight, pursed his lips and smiled, and nodded Lu Yang who was standing next to him with his shoulder. "Your old man quarreled with the old man of Lu Yan's family again, let me make a bet with you, after a while, if you don't have enough spirit level to summon spirits, you choose the holding spirit prepared by the family for you, and finally let Lu Yan compare it, and your old man will definitely give you a fat beating when you turn around."
Lu Yang's face turned bitter when he heard this, and he looked at the slim and beautiful girl not far away, and sighed.
"No way, who told us that the two old men have conflicting personalities, everything has to be compared, if Lu Yan's final psychic summoning potential level is not as high as mine, she will still inevitably be punished by her grandfather......"
"Do you think it's possible? Not to mention the usual psychic class, or martial arts class, do you have any better grades than Lu Yan. Taking 10,000 steps back, it's just that she's unlucky, the summoning spirit potential level of the psychic array is not enough, and the fire elder will just pull a bunch of powerful potential spirits for her to choose, young man, you have a bit of ideas. ”
Lu Ke made up for it unhurriedly, and the gloom on Lu Yang's slightly chubby little face became even thicker.
