4. Chapter 4: The Oath of Ten Thousand Tribulations
Everyone was stunned, it was possible to release the divine seal only if there were more than five divine veins, Xiao Bai's divine veins didn't even have a single product, how could there be a divine seal!?
Xiao Tianba looked puzzled and looked at the old priest: "This son has really obtained a divine seal!?"
The old priest shook his head and said: "The old man can't tell clearly, if this is a divine seal, the old man has presided over the god worship ceremony for decades, and he has never seen such a complex and profound divine seal, if he is not a divine seal, then what will it be?"
The old priest frowned and thought for a moment, still puzzled, and asked Xiao Baidao: "Everyone who obtains the Divine Seal will feel it in their body, for example, the Flame Divine Seal body will feel hot, and the Frost Divine Seal body will feel cold, how do you feel?"
At this moment, Xiao Bai looked at the whirlpool pattern, and had forgotten to answer the old priest's words, because this whirlpool pattern was exactly the same as the whirlpool pattern he saw in the dry well last night!
Xiao Bai finally understood why he was able to enter the Divine Light Divine Tower, it turned out to be a divine seal hidden in his body, and there was some strange connection with the Time Divine Tower!
"Xiao Bai?" the old priest asked again. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Xiao Bai quietly felt that there was indeed an extra mysterious energy in his body, ethereal, but difficult to capture, he couldn't describe it at all.
"I didn't feel anything. Xiao Bai faintly felt that his divine seal was not trivial, so he should not expose it easily, and even if he really said that he had obtained the divine seal, would anyone believe it? What is the ability of his divine seal, it is better to go to the Time God Tower to find it.
Xiao Jinnian laughed: "It seems that it is not a divine seal at all, in fact, there is no need to make a fuss, he is not a human being, and there are some strange things in his body, which is quite normal." “
This time, Xiao Wei didn't answer, just looked at the whirlpool light and shadow, thoughtfully, she had studied for three years in the "East Pole Martial Palace", the highest cultivation school in the Red Dust Continent, and her knowledge was naturally not comparable to everyone in the little Xiao family, she was sure that the thing that Xiao Bai obtained was definitely a divine seal!
Xiao Wei's heart tightened slightly, could it be that Xiao Bai had gained some rare powerful ability? But soon, she came to her senses again, even if it was like this? He had only awakened the most high-grade divine vein, and he was destined to have no achievements in this life.
Although Xiao Tianba's cultivation is stronger than Xiao Wei, his knowledge is not necessarily as wide as her, his opinion is the same as Xiao Jinnian's, and he said loudly: "Since this is the case, it should not be a divine seal, and we don't have to pay attention to it." Now, I announce that this festival has come to an end and the rewards have begun. “
The priests stepped back, and immediately several maidservants walked up to the altar with several trays of bottles and jars.
Xiao Tianba's gaze swept over the teenagers and said, "Those who awaken the five-grade divine veins will obtain a high-grade marrow cleansing pill, a body quenching pill, and a blood refining pill. “
"Those who awaken the four grades of divine veins will receive a high-grade marrow cleansing pill and a body quenching pill. “
"Those who awaken the three-grade divine veins will get a high-grade marrow cleansing pill. “
"Those who awaken the first and second grade divine veins will get a myelin-washing pill. “
"In addition, those who have obtained the above rewards can go to the Xiao family's arsenal and receive different levels of cultivation exercises according to the grade of the Divine Seal obtained. “
The cultivation of the human race is divided into four levels: heaven, earth, Xuan, and Huang, and each level is divided into upper, middle, and lower grades, and the highest level of the Xiao family's exercises is the upper grade of the yellow level, but only the recipients of the four or five grades of divine veins are qualified to cultivate.
The maidservants gave rewards to the young men and women on the stage one by one, but Xiao Bai did not have any rewards and fell into an embarrassing situation.
Xiao Bai frowned and asked, "Great Elder, my divine vein has no grade, I don't know which first prize to be awarded to?"
Xiao Tianba said coldly: "Since there is no grade, naturally there is no reward. “
As soon as everyone heard this, they instantly understood that Xiao Tianba was deliberately targeting Xiao Bai, and they all cast gloating glances at him, Xiao Xueqing in the audience couldn't help but say: "Great Elder, according to the family regulations, anyone who awakens the divine vein can get a myelin-washing pill and a cultivation exercise, my family Bai'er has obviously awakened the divine vein, even if it is only the last product, at least there should be a myelin-washing pill and the qualification to choose exercises, right?"
Xiao Tianba said indifferently: "The family stipulates that the acquisition of the Purifying Pill and the cultivation exercises need to be assessed according to the grade of the divine vein, Xiao Bai does not have any grade, why should he obtain the Purifying Pill and choose the exercises?" It turned out that Xiao Tianba admired Xiao Xueqing's beauty when he was young, and later Xiao Xueqing married Xiao Bai's father, and Xiao Tianba also hated Xiao Bai because of love, and made things difficult for Xiao Bai's mother and son.
Xiao Xueqing's face turned red, and she glared at her angrily: "Xiao Tianba! You are clearly a personal vendetta of the communiqué, and you are deliberately targeting Bai'er!"
"Bold!" Xiao Jin stood up, "The name of the Great Elder, is it something that you can call a slut who eats inside and out!?"
Xiao Bai was furious and said, "Xiao Jinnian, do you want to die!?"
Xiao Jinnian laughed: "You, a waste of the Yu clan, dare to threaten me, awaken a last-grade divine vein, and think that you are invincible in the world!?"
Xiao Tianba waved his hand to signal Xiao Jinnian to sit down, looked at Xiao Xueqing with ridicule and said: " You said that I have a personal vendetta, I really don't know what kind of grudge I have with you woman, in all fairness, Xiao Bai has awakened such a low-level divine vein, and the marrow cleansing pill can be given to him or not, but as the great elder of the Xiao family, I should think about the interests of the Xiao family, a myelin-washing pill is worth fifty ingots, and the price is not expensive, and Xiao Bai is already sixteen years old, past the best age for marrow washing, plus such a weak divine vein, isn't it too wasteful to use the myelin-washing pill on him!?
"You--"
"Forget it, Mother. Xiao Bai interrupted Xiao Xueqing and walked down the altar, "Some people are targeting us, no matter how much we fight, it's useless, let's go, there is no endless road, washing the marrow does not have to wash the marrow pill, put it in the exercises, let's find another way." “
Xiao Bai knew in his heart that the vast cultivation exercises in the Time God Tower, and if he took out a copy at random, they were much stronger than the Xiao family's strongest exercises.
Xiao Tianba smiled coldly, looked around at everyone again, and said loudly: "I almost forgot to announce that in three months, the Xiao family will hold a clan competition, and the young people who awaken the divine vein today, as long as you succeed in cleansing the marrow and become a beginner, you will be eligible to participate in the clan competition!"
All the teenagers were immediately excited.
The clan competition is an important competition between the teenagers in the family, as long as you get a ranking or perform well in the clan competition, you can enter the Xiao family's martial arts holy land "Wind Thunder Cave" to practice for a month. The Wind Thunder Cave is a special realm, containing abundant heaven and earth aura and the power of wind and thunder, and the cultivation speed inside is not only far greater than that outside, but also can obtain all kinds of unexpected benefits.
Every teenager in the family is eager to enter the Wind Thunder Cave to practice, but in order to become a beginner martial artist and obtain the qualification of the clan competition, he must wash the marrow.
It takes six months for an awakened person to wash the marrow in the natural state, but it only takes less than three months to wash the marrow with the marrow washing pill. And Xiao Bai didn't have a super high grade of divine veins, and it was impossible for him to have the money to buy an expensive marrow cleansing pill, and he didn't even have the most basic cultivation exercises, so it was impossible to successfully wash the marrow within three months.
Xiao Bai knew that Xiao Tianba was deliberately stimulating them, and in addition to Xiao Jinnian's humiliation of his mother just now, Xiao Bai was completely angry at this time.
Over the years, he has been insulted and bullied because he can't awaken the divine vein, but now that he has awakened the divine vein, he is also insulted and bullied.
He understood that everyone in the Xiao family regarded him as an outlier, and they all regarded her mother as the biggest shame for the Xiao family.
He's had enough, he's going to fight!
The anger in Xiao Bai's eyes was boiling, and he bit off three fingers and slowly raised them.
The surrounding crowd exclaimed, "What is he doing?
In the Red Dust Continent, the human race has the most serious oath called the "Ten Thousand Tribulation Oath", which is made in the name of the gods, and if it cannot be realized, it will be punished by the gods and the gods will be destroyed. Normally, a person will only make an oath of calamity when he is forced to passive, and very few people take the initiative to swear, because once the oath cannot be realized, he will definitely die.
The oath of ten thousand calamities is an oath of eternal calamity.
Xiao Xueqing saw Xiao Bai raise three bloody fingers, and said in horror: "Bai'er, what are you doing!"
Xiao Bai didn't answer, his silent gaze swept over the indifferent faces of Xiao Tianba's father and son, Xiao Wei and the Xiao family, and said in a tone that had not appeared in his mouth for sixteen years: "I, Xiao Bai, swear in the name of the gods that in three months, I will wash my marrow and successfully participate in the clan competition! Moreover, I will kill Xiao Jinnian in the clan competition! If I violate this oath, the gods will be destroyed!!"
After Xiao Bai made the oath, the blood beads on his fingertips shattered into countless points of light and disappeared into the air, which meant that the gods heard Xiao Bai's oath and made a successful oath.
The audience was stunned.
Whether Xiao Bai can successfully cleanse the marrow within three months is a question, how can he kill Xiao Jinnian? You must know that Xiao Jinnian has awakened the five-grade divine vein and has become a Xuanwu, and there is a difference of two realms between the two.
If it were on weekdays, Xiao Bai's decision would inevitably cause everyone to laugh, but no one laughed at the moment, because Xiao Bai made an oath of ten thousand calamities, and it was a heavy oath to kill, that is to say, three months later, between Xiao Bai and Xiao Jinnian, it is equivalent to a battle of life and death.
Xiao Bai is simply gambling on his life! And it is a kind of wild gamble with no chance of winning!
"You're crazy!" Xiao Xueqing exclaimed in grief, "Bai'er, do you know what you're doing!?"
"I know. Xiao Bai's eyes were red, "But I can't bear it anymore, even if I die in the end, I can't bear it anymore." “
Xiao Bai's mother and son have been in the Xiao family for 16 years, and they have been insulted and ridiculed by the clansmen for 16 years, Xiao Bai made an oath to Xiao Jinnian, which is not only a difficult and humiliating for Xiao Tianba's father and son, but also an expression of anger for the entire Xiao family!
"You stupid boy, what should I do if you die!?" Xiao Xueqing hugged Xiao Bai and cried bitterly.
Xiao Bai didn't speak, his eyes were as resolute as iron, he was not begging for death, but just forcing himself to a dead end, breaking the cauldron and sinking the boat, he would succeed, there were so many cultivation exercises in the Time God Tower, and there were also virtual divine veins that could grow, he would definitely succeed!
Although Xiao Tianba's father and son were bent on making things difficult for Xiao Bai's mother and son, they didn't expect Xiao Bai to be so strong that he made an oath of ten thousand calamities and forced Xiao Jinnian to fight to the death.
Xiao Tianba was silent for a moment, and said indifferently: "It's okay, Jin Nian, since someone wants to die so much, you can fulfill him." “
Xiao Jinnian also smiled: "Actually, I have long wanted to help my Xiao family clean up this waste, and staying in the Xiao family will only lose our family's face." “
"In that case...... Xiao Bai looked at Xiao Jinnian, "That's the signing of the book of life and death, right?" There are thousands of people in the Xiao family, and it is inevitable that there will be irresolvable conflicts between the two, but in order to avoid revenge between the two families, the two who have a grudge can sign a life and death book, and after the death is decided, the family of the deceased party must not retaliate.
Xiao Tianba's lineage is not weak in the clan, Xiao Tianba is already a martial artist, Xiao Bai swore to kill Xiao Jinnian, and he must guard against Xiao Tianba's revenge.
Xiao Tian said domineeringly: "Jin Nian, you don't have to sign with him." Xiao Tianba is doing things safely, he doesn't want to have a chance for revenge in case something happens to his son.
Xiao Bai looked at his father and son sarcastically and said, "What's the matter, afraid of losing?"
Xiao Jinnian was provoked by Xiao Bai, and immediately smiled and said, "What must be won, why don't you dare?"
Xiao Tianba's eyebrows furrowed, but he didn't speak again when he thought that his son had a very small chance of losing.
Subsequently, the two signed a letter of life and death and made this covenant of life and death. Xiao Bai took Xiao Xueqing and left.
In response to Xiao Bai's oath, although everyone thought that Xiao Bai would definitely lose, no one made a ridiculous discussion, Xiao Bai's courage to see death just now did shock the entire Xiao family.
