Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Source of the Clouds
"Cloud Lantern Festival, God really bless my Chang'an Empire!"
Hearing Feng Ao mention the matter of the Cloud Lantern Festival, Gu Haotian was also stunned in his heart, and seemed to sigh with some regret. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Hearing Gu Haotian's words, Feng on the side sighed arrogantly and said: "Haotian, it was a huge pity that I didn't participate in the Cloud Lantern Festival back then, if there was also a place for you above the leader back then, maybe you would have already condensed the military soul to advance to the Divine Realm!"
When Feng Ao said this, several other people also showed a look of regret on their faces, in fact, at this time, Feng Ao and Gu Haotian, including Taibai Jushi, all had some emotion on their faces, and Xuanyuan Hao, who was sitting on the top, frowned and suddenly remembered something.
"Although the Cloud Lantern Festival is just a way for our Chang'an Empire to select young talents, I have faintly heard my father say that it seems that there are many secrets in it!"
When he thought of this, Xuanyuan Hao also knew that this matter was related to many things in the empire, but he was not qualified to read these materials when he was young, but when he had power, he had long lost this interest, thinking that he would know the things he should know sooner or later, so he was not in a hurry, but now it seems that the three of them obviously know more about this.
Xuanyuan Hao showed a smile on his face, and asked Gu Haotian who was below: "Haotian, there seem to be many secrets in the matter of the Cloud Lantern Festival, I haven't read them back then, I don't know if Haotian may solve my puzzles!"
In private, in fact, Xuanyuan Hao was also very close to several people, but a few people couldn't let go, and they still opened their mouths and closed their mouths.
"Yes!"
Gu Haotian immediately responded, muttered as if he was organizing language, and then said: "Your Majesty, in fact, this matter has to start from the time of His Majesty, the third emperor of our Chang'an Empire!"
"Void Emperor!"
As a member of the royal family, Xuanyuan Hao is naturally very clear about the genealogy of his royal family, the full name of His Majesty the Void Emperor is Xuanyuan Xu, and he is the one with the highest cultivation talent among the royal families of the Chang'an Empire, and he has advanced to the divine realm with his own strength in only forty years of reign, and he has stayed on the throne for sixty years with the cultivation of the divine realm. It is rumored that after his abdication, he cultivated to the peak of the divine realm, and then disappeared in search of the so-called further direction, and then never appeared again, in the Xuanyuan royal family, this virtual emperor is really a famous emperor.
"His Majesty the Void Emperor was still the emperor when he was in the divine realm, and in the last ten years of his reign, he handed over all the major domestic affairs to the prince at that time to deal with, and he traveled everywhere in the Chang'an Empire, originally for the improvement of his own strength, but later he inexplicably brought back an altar like a mountain......"
Saying that, Gu Haotian came to all the things one by one, and everyone gradually understood that it was not a big deal for the Void Emperor to bring back a treasure back then, but the strange thing was that the altar itself that looked like a mountain range actually had a powerful luck, and the luck on one of its altars was as magnificent as a country. At that time, the Void Emperor and the entire royal family were very excited, if all the luck in it could be integrated into the national fortune of the Chang'an Empire, then the national fortune of the Chang'an Empire could grow wildly in a short period of time, and the growth of the empire's strength brought about by the growth of the national fortune was not a joke.
Of course, the situation here is a matter of average, the development of the empire is closely related to the fortune of the country, but it is not proportional to the total amount, but proportional to the average amount, and the greater the blessing that everyone can get from the fortune of the country, the more benefits there will be. Therefore, this is also the reason why there are often many talents in troubled times, that is, because the Chinese fortune in troubled times will automatically bless a small number of people, that is, those who may have the opportunity to save the empire selected by the national fortune, are the chosen saviors.
The massive blessings that these people have received from the national fortune will of course grow insanely, while others will become worse because they lose the blessing of the national fortune, so even natural disasters will increase in the troubled times. But talent will grow explosively.
But the next thing disappointed the Emperor and the others, that is, the luck on this altar was not integrated into the national fortune of the Chang'an Empire at all, and there was even a phenomenon of rejection.
In the end, in desperation, Emperor Xuhuang and others could only come up with a compromise solution, that is, to integrate this altar into the soil of the empire, so as to isolate the entire Chang'an City, which is why as the center of the empire, Chang'an City is very closed, and even the vast majority of people have no way to find Chang'an City when they do not pass through Parkway City.
But even if the altar was surrounded by mountains with magical powers, those luck still could not be absorbed by the Chang'an Empire, but they were constantly looking for people who might have talent. It's like finding another person to help the once lost glory resurrect, in order to prevent these luck from running around, the Void Emperor and others thought of a way, that is, to take the initiative to choose candidates for these luck, and then let these people who were selected by luck to be blessed by luck join the Chang'an Empire, so that it can be regarded as another way to integrate luck into the empire.
The Cloud Lantern Festival was born, in fact, the selected Lantern Kui and the Kui who competed later were the ones who were chosen as the inheritors of luck, of course, this is also a lot of benefits for them, of course, the Cloud Lantern Festival is still a way to choose talents, and this way of fusing and refining Qi luck has been continuing, but this secret is only known to a very few people in the Chang'an Empire.
"I see!"
Xuanyuan Hao suddenly realized after hearing this, but then he changed his mind and said: "Although the leaders of each session have entered the empire in the end, and they can all be regarded as talents, but it is the first time that Fang Li is so bright, I don't know if it was the touch of the cloud lantern meeting that made the blessing of luck stronger, or Fang Li's own luck is very strong, he is a genius of the sky, and the blessing of the leader in the back is just icing on the cake?"
"This ......"
Feng Ao and the others were really stumped, and they all shook their heads under a deep groan, indicating that they couldn't be sure.
"I don't know if Xuanyuan Tuo knows about this matter, or if the Qingyin Sword Sect will choose our Chang'an Empire, will there be such a plan in ......it?"
Xuanyuan Hao thought with a solemn face, but he didn't say these words to anyone, he just thought about it in his heart.
......
And when Fang Li was about to return to Xianyang City, hundreds of thousands of miles away, on the main peak of the Outer Sect of the Light Sword Sect, a beautiful-looking woman slowly opened her eyes, and in front of her, a white-haired old man saw that the aura on the other party's body had gradually stabilized, and said with a look of relief: "Ran'er, it seems that the more than ten years of earthly experience are still very beneficial to you!
