Chapter Ninety-Three: The Time of the Sacrifice
The altar of the Qiling clan is made of huge stone bricks, and the steps go up one step at a time, and at the highest point of the building, there is a platform, which is the altar of the holy site where the great wizard of the Qiling clan prays to the sky and pray for peace and blessing.

Under the altar, the Qiling people are crowded, both adults and children, all waiting quietly, and after the sun has completely set, the top of the altar will be lit with a holy flame symbolizing blessings, and at this time, the flame festival will officially begin!
As a disciple of the Great Wizard, Rando had to serve under the altar and wait before the crowd, just like the rest of the disciples. The great wizard of the Qiling clan, there are eight in total, of which Lan Duo is the smallest one, at this time, under the golden altar, there are only seven people standing, Lan Duo according to the rules, to stand on the outermost side, but at this time, she is obviously a little absent-minded, and her expression seems to be in a trance.
At this time, Lin Qi was hidden in the jungle outside the altar, away from the crowd, quietly waiting for the time to come, at this time he was wearing barbarian costumes, and his face was smeared with strange ornaments, looking no different from a barbarian youth, which can also hide people's eyes and ears to the greatest extent!
At this moment, on the distant horizon, the last touch of red finally disappeared, and darkness fell completely, and suddenly there was a loud bang on the altar, followed by a flame, and then from the top of the altar, rising to the sky!
The excitement in the crowd exploded in an instant, cheering everywhere, and the voices were boiling!
The Festival of Fire has begun!
At this time, from the side of the crowd, a man dressed in a very barbarian costume and wearing a hideous mask, supported by a young man, slowly walked out and came to the altar.
Don't think about it, this person is the great wizard of the Qiling clan, seeing the great wizard appear, the excited crowd gradually quieted down, and everyone's eyes instantly converged on him, of course, including Lin Qi who was hiding in the shadows.
The Great Wizard didn't say a word, and when he came to the front of the steps, the young man who had been supporting him at this time let go of his hand, and then stood in the middle of the Great Wizard's disciples, and then the eight people were divided into two columns, fighting against each other on the left and right.
At this time, the entire Enlightenment Clan had completely quieted down, and everyone was waiting for the Great Wizard to ascend the altar.
The Great Wizard was not in a hurry, looked at his disciples left and right, and nodded with satisfaction, then raised his feet and stepped on the stone steps and slowly walked to the top of the altar. The steps of the great wizard were extremely slow, but no one in the audience urged him, so people's eyes were all pious, because the great wizard who could communicate with the god of flames was the most noble existence in the whole clan!
I don't know how long it took, the great wizard finally ascended the altar, and at this time, he heard a long howl from the wizard's mouth, and a barbarian word came out of his mouth, and as soon as his words fell, someone appeared from the side.
The four barbarians who appeared carried a huge wooden box together, and on top of the wooden box, there was a thing lying on his stomach, which was far away and could not be seen clearly.
However, Lin Qi recognized at a glance that this wooden box was the sword box of Firefly!
"What's going on...... Fireflies, they were captured by the Qiling Clan?"
Lin Qi was shocked, he almost couldn't hold back his excitement, and almost rushed out, you know, the sword box has never left the side of the firefly too far, the sword box appears here, indicating that the firefly is nearby, but this is the territory of the Qiling clan, where is the little girl?
For a while, Lin Qi was anxious, but he didn't know the situation, not to mention that now that the important matter was in front of him, he couldn't give up his efforts no matter what.
At this time, the four barbarian youths, already carrying the sword box, slowly walked towards the altar, and the things lying on the sword box were motionless, as if they were dead.
Lin Qi looked at it fixedly, only to see that this thing was a strange beast, it was wearing scale armor, with a pair of curved horns on the top of its head, like a cow but not a cow, it seemed to be sleeping, a little far away, Lin Qi still couldn't see it really, he just didn't know why he was lying on top of the sword box of the firefly.
The four people put the sword box in the center of the top of the altar, and left, the great wizard walked to the altar, and began to praise the gods, although Lin Qi couldn't understand the barbarians, but the Qiling people present were all pious and happy, and then slowly bowed down and prostrate on the ground!
This is the time!
At this moment, a scream of pain suddenly came from the crowd, it turned out that just in front of the altar, Lan Duo, a disciple of the Great Wizard, suddenly clutched his throat, his face was in pain, screaming again and again, and then he suddenly fell to the ground, struggling.
The sudden change caused an uproar among the people, but the memorial ceremony of the Fire Festival had officially begun, and the chanting voice of the great wizard on the altar did not end because of this.
Although Lan Duo is a foreign race, she is a disciple of a great wizard after all, not to mention seeing her situation, it is obviously a sign of poisoning, which indicates that there must be an outsider who has invaded and wants to destroy the Heavenly Sacrifice Ritual of the Qiling Clan!
Lan Duo's expression was so painful that even Lin Qi had to believe it, and at this time, several disciples of the great wizard had already come forward, while the ordinary people were all prostrate on the ground, praying sincerely.
The time has finally come.
Lin Qi immediately made a decision, immediately rushed out of the jungle, leaned over from the dark corner, turned over and jumped up the steps, and then raised his feet and ran to the top of the altar, he didn't know how long Lan Duo could be involved, he just wanted to use the least amount of time to reach the great wizard's side now!
At this time, Lin Qi heard the angry roar of the barbarians behind him, but he didn't expect that he was discovered just halfway up.
The roar was made by a disciple of the Great Wizard, and at this time, everyone noticed the abnormality on the altar, and the sacrifice was a major event of the Wu Clan, and it was absolutely not allowed to be destroyed by anyone.
At this time, the four barbarian youths quickly rushed to the altar, they were young and strong, they had their own kung fu in their bodies, and their speed was extremely fast, and they had already caught up with Lin Qi in a blink of an eye, Lin Qi was now completely lost, and his speed could only be regarded as ordinary, and he had already tried his best, but he would eventually face a situation of falling short!
If you give me a little time, just a little time, that's enough.
Lin Qi prayed in his heart, but the black pressed figure had already enveloped his figure, and it was pressed down in an instant!
"Brother Lin, hold on, brother, I'm here to save you!"
At this moment, a huge spherical figure suddenly ejected from the jungle and flew towards the altar at a very fast speed! When the four barbarian youths heard the wind whistling in their heads, they couldn't help but look back, and they were immediately shocked, where could they still care about arresting Lin Qi!
With a bang, the figure slammed into the steps, and the four young men were shocked and staggered, and they fell down the steps one after another, and in the smoke and dust, a round figure slowly stood up.
"Horse ...... Big Brother Ma?"
"Hahaha, Brother Lin, are you surprised, surprised?" Ma Zhanpeng laughed, "It's for us here, you go and catch the old wizard of the barbarians!"
"You guys?"
Before Lin Qi's words fell, he heard another commotion in the crowd, and saw that far away at the end of the crowd, a strange figure, wearing a barbarian robe, suddenly rushed into the crowd!
"Ahh
Before Lin Qi could understand, Ma Zhanpeng was already shouting and rushing down the altar, and for a while, the entire Qiling clan fell into chaos!
Lin Qi didn't care so much, he clenched his silver teeth, turned around and stepped on the top of the altar, but he didn't expect to look up and see the great wizard turn around!
In the hand of the Great Wizard of the Qiling Clan, at some point, there was an extra staff in his hand that seemed to be woven from vines, and at the top of the staff, there was a huge fireball, converging!
