Yi Jie's voice fell, but seeing that the five-colored civet cat's face was extremely ugly, a little slippery flashed in panic.

The five-colored civet cat said with a sad face, "Yi ...... Easy to manage, look at what you said. We have a talisman issued by the Holy City Guard, and our buying and selling of stones is a serious business. ”

Yi Jie stopped him from continuing, "Don't pretend to be garlic with me." The great god of the smoke pond has been in retreat for nearly three years in order to exercise the colorful stones, who allowed you to come to the holy city to do business, let's investigate this matter? ”

The five-colored spirit cat knew that something was wrong, waved his hand at you viciously, sighed and said, "Sixteen Langyu, sixteen!" What do you think? ”

Yi Jie smiled silently, but nodded slightly at everyone, indicating that the price was acceptable.

"Hey! I lost money today! The noise in the market was noisy, but it couldn't hide the mournful wail of the five-colored civet.

Seeing Yi Jie's expression, Hu Sang was extremely happy, and borrowed two Lang Ji from each of the three Terran teenagers, made up sixteen, handed them to the civet, took the stone from his hand, and walked away.

Rui Gong asked Husang puzzledly, "There are so many beautiful stones, why did you choose one that looks like an ordinary stone?" ”

"The Gem of Light is no ordinary stone, but it is the essence of the universe! The Beginning of Life! Hu Sang shook the inconspicuous-looking stone from Rui Gong's eyes, and protected it in his arms, and said with a bright face, "Think about it, how can the treasure conceived by the essence of heaven and earth be colorful and dazzling?" It must be a gem that looks very ordinary, but exudes a special charm and makes people fascinated! ”

Yi Jie heard it, and said with a smile, "Hehe." If it weren't for Brother Linghu telling me last night that he had never left Linghu Village, I would have almost thought that he had secretly seen the Light Gem! ”

"What? What do you mean—" Fox Sang seemed to understand something in an instant, and his eyes radiated a fine light.

"Don't underestimate the five-colored civet and his stones," Yi Jie continued, "In my opinion, he should have taken advantage of the retreat of the Great God of the Smoke Pond to secretly sell the waste he refined." The great god of the smoke pond is the great witch Zhen, the first refiner in the world, and his stones must have some doorways. So, don't underestimate it. ”

The crowd giggled and walked around for a while, and came to the end of the market. Ahead is a forest, quiet and quiet, with no end in sight. There were quite a few spirit beasts that stopped in front of the woods, and only a few spirit beasts stood on tiptoe and walked into the depths of the woods.

"What's the place up ahead?" Where are they going? ”

Yi Jie smiled slightly, and said mysteriously, "This is our destination today." ”

Husang's round eyes looked at Yi Jie expectantly and said, "Yes...... Sun and Moon Goddess Temple? ”

Yi Jie was stunned for a moment and said with a smile, "Brother Husang is really smart. ”

"It really is! I guessed right! Husang jumped up and down, "Brother Jie, let's go!" Let's go now! ”

"That...... Wait a minute......" Di Qingchuan suddenly turned around, looked at the bazaar behind him with anxiety, and asked, "Jue...... I don't think there's a ...... Something is following us?! ”

Ke Zhenshi casually looked back behind him, there was nothing, "Hey, why don't I feel it?" ”

Di Qingchuan frowned and said slowly, "Hmm...... Just now in the market, when Husang picked the spirit stone, there was ...... There were a few ugly-looking things around us, sneaky, like ...... Like a mole. ”

Thinking of all the encounters when they first entered the mountain and sea realm, especially those hateful-looking earth moles, several teenagers had goosebumps on their bodies.

"Wouldn't it? I didn't find anything......" Rui said cautiously.

"You...... Do you think it will be...... Is it Qiqi? Di Qingchuan said suspiciously.

"What nonsense!" Hu Sang said disapprerovingly, "The Sun and Moon Holy City is guarded by a super invincible enchantment, and the dark forces can't enter. So what you see should be just some kind spirit animals that look ugly but have bright hearts. ”

"Hey, so you're talking about spirit beasts," Yi Jie suddenly realized, "You should already know that ten days later will be the Gem Feast." This festival is not only an annual event of the Sun Moon Sect Temple and the Holy City, but also a major event in the light world. Spirit beasts from all over the sixteen continents want to see this prosperous world, and every year the Holy City invites three hundred spirit beasts of different races to participate in the grand event. Recently, there have been invited spirit beasts to enter the city, so the market is indeed a little noisy......"

Husang also echoed, "That's it." Some of the brothers of the spirit race do look obscene, but that doesn't mean they're evil spirits. We can't judge the high ...... by appearance."

"But ......," Di Qingchuan hesitated, "I really saw sneaky eyes watching us, from ...... ...... from the market here."

Yi Jie stretched out his wings and patted Di Qingchuan's back, and said categorically, "The enchantment of the Holy City is the highest level enchantment that has been blessed and repaired by peerless masters who have reached the realm of freedom or supernatural power in the spirit world for generations. As long as it is the magic of the dark realm, as soon as you get close to this barrier, it will reveal its original form, and it is impossible to enter the city. ”

"That's it! It is! Husang echoed, "The Holy City is not an ordinary place, the guards are all first-class masters, the Xuanru we saw yesterday, the sharp claws on his hands, like ghosts, like ghosts, powerful like wind blades, can casually tear the dark forces of the small people to pieces." No dirt gets in! ”

Ke Zhenshi teased, "Dachuan, are you nervous?" ”

Rui Gong didn't completely regard Di Qingchuan's sensitivity as suspicious. "It's always right for us to be careful, after all, the Phoenix Emperor is with us."

Yi Jie nodded, "No matter what, the guards of the Holy City will definitely do their best to protect everyone's safety, especially Lord Fenghuang." Rest assured! ”

Seeing Yi Jie swear so much, although Di Qingchuan still had doubts in his heart, he still dispelled his worries and happily walked towards the direction of the Sun Moon Temple with his partners.

A majestic and simple golden majestic object appeared halfway up the mountain in front of it. They walked through a dense forest path that stretched for three miles, and walked towards the place. Yi Jie pointed out the temple to everyone, "That is the temple of the goddess of the sun and the moon." ”

Although Hu Sang had already guessed eight or nine points, when he heard Yi Jie say this, his mind was still hot, and he bent his knees to the ground with excitement, and bowed to the temple reverently a few times before standing up.

Dai, who is the Phoenix Emperor, is not so excited; He put his head up high, looking at the temple in the distance, and his temperament became more and more noble.

The main hall of the temple was built on a pedestal more than ten zhang high above the ground, and there was a staircase extending up the doorway. Outside the door was a large square about a hundred zhang wide, and the square was empty, except for a few spirit beasts looking at the straight stone steps with reverent eyes. Yi Jie led them through the square. Xu was infected by the solemn atmosphere of this square, and everyone's steps became cautious, even Ke Zhenshi, who was usually very arrogant, seemed to be carrying a thousand catties of heavy burden at the moment, moving forward step by step, and did not dare to make any moves beyond the norm.

There was still only Dai, who was outstanding and looked at the world, and walked through the empty square without care. I don't know if it's the sun at noon, or the refreshment after resting, Dai is full of energy at this time, which makes the usually empty square also become warm.

There are a total of 300 stone steps, and the jade statues of thirty-two spirit beasts are squatting on each side, like heavily guarded guards. The stone steps of each step were almost two feet high, which made it difficult for the three Terran teenagers to climb.

"Pegasus...... Rhinoceros ...... Long Ride...... Canglong ...... White tiger...... Suzaku ...... Turtle ...... This is the Twelve Elders? Rui Gong climbed and looked around at the spirit beast statues on both sides of the stone steps, "No, it's not just the twelve elders...... How come there are so many spirit beasts...... Ay? That's a nine-tailed fox in front?! ”

Yi Jie followed, "It's not the Twelve Elders, it's the Thirty-Two Spirit Clan. The Twelve Elders are the twelve most talented beings in the spirit world elected every 30 years, and they preside over and discuss major decisions in the spirit world. But the thirty-two spirit races are the thirty-two races that have been personally enlightened by the One God, and they are burdened with a light mission. ”

Hu Sang also said proudly, "Our Spirit Fox Clan is also one of the thirty-two Spirit Clans!" ”

Everyone nodded and listened to Yi Jie's introduction. The careful Di Qingchuan found that at the beginning and end of the stone steps, there were four groups of spirit beasts that appeared repeatedly.

"This ...... Turtles, tigers, birds, and ...... Dragon, how...... Why did it happen twice? Di Qingchuan couldn't help but ask.

Yi Jie said with a smile, "That's the Xuangui, the White Tiger, the Vermilion Bird and the Qinglong Clan, the four of them have ever produced the most masters of the Divine Power Realm, and they were appointed by the Great God of Lingwa as the Bright Xuan Envoy of the South, East and Northwest Directions, and it can be said that they are the most prestigious and prestigious families in the Mountain and Sea Realm." ”

"Among the twelve elders, their four families occupy four fixed seats all year round, and their momentum is long-lasting." Hu Sang added, "For example, the current leader and elder of the Wuheng Society is the patriarch of the White Tiger Family, Xiyu. ”

"Will there be spirit beasts other than the thirty-two spirit clans among the twelve elders?" Rui asked him.

"Of course there is. The Twelve Elders are from any family, and in principle, any spiritual creature can be a candidate as long as they have both ability and integrity. ”

"However, the thirty-two spirit clans have a considerable choice as to which of the twelve elders are elected. Only with the support of all thirty-two spirit clans can one become an elder candidate; If you want to be elected as an elder, you need to be voted for by sixty-five Light Realm powers, including the thirty-two spirit clan patriarchs. Husang added, "Whoever receives the most support will be elected." ”

As they spoke, they came to the temple before they knew it.

From a distance, the temple looks very rugged in style; When I walked in and took a closer look, it made people feel very exquisite. But seeing that the main body of the temple is about fifty zhang high, made of huge goose-yellow stones, and the hard stone wall is carved with exquisite mountain and sea scripture spirit animal patterns and mysterious and treacherous runes, so that Hu Sang got closer and studied carefully for a long time.

The front of the temple has a huge high rectangular door, which is surrounded by dense spiritual stones, shining with a faint spiritual light. These spirit stones are completely different from the spirit stones seen before, because each spirit stone has a rune carved with a tool, and Yi Jie introduced that it is a spell to pray for the goddess of the sun and the moon.

Just as the teenagers were panting for breath as they climbed the 300 steps of the mountain, the door of the temple suddenly opened, and out of it came a white bat and a miscellaneous mink. They came to Dai and saluted respectfully in unison, "Xiao Ri Wu Li Fu Zhizhen, Xiao Yue Wu Lihua Ling, meet the Feng Emperor." ”

Dai hurriedly returned the salute, "Who are you two?" ”

Fu Zhizhen spoke, "We are the priests of the Sun and Moon Temple, I am the little witch who is responsible for worshiping the goddess of the sun, and the flower brothers are responsible for worshipping the goddess of the moon. We are here to welcome you on the orders of the Great Witch Rite. ”

Dai said politely, "No need to welcome, no need to welcome, the two witches are polite." ”

Fu Zhizhen guided, "Please come with Emperor Feng and all of you." ”
