Chapter 92: Judgment and Sacrifice
The shadows on the sun grew heavier and heavier, not only at the edges, but rapidly spreading to the entire sun, and the crumbling dusk finally began to turn into night.
The prophecy of the "Hidden Lamp" has been fulfilled. qgν.
Although night fell, the sky did not completely darken.
Because the night is only a façade, and behind the night is a lot of karma.
The night is like a layer of tissue paper, it is said that paper cannot contain fire, at this time the moon defeats the sun, and the night engulfs the dusk, but things do not end here, but continue to change, and the night soon cannot stop the karmic fire in the sky, and even in some places there have been expanding scorch marks, revealing a scarlet color.
It's a pity that Qi Xuansu didn't hear Chuck Cair's words, otherwise he would have a deep understanding of what the scarlet fire that guides Kukulkan is.
Qi Xuansu retracted his gaze and continued to retreat.
On the other side, Qi Xuansu still shared the senses of Wu Niang's side.
Ichchel's silver box is not boxy, and has a slight twist in the middle, as if someone had grabbed two ends of the silver box, one straight and the other backwards. Make its silhouette more like an hourglass.
The "Chuck Chel's Locking Wheel" is pierced through the top of the "Hourglass".
The "Ichichel's Silver Box" has great power, similar to the "Prime King", and can attract the power of heaven and earth, but the silver box is usually silent and can only be opened with the "Chakchel's Lock Wheel".
From the names of the two, it can be seen who the owners of the two are, and Ichichel can get the "Chack Chel's lock wheel", which must have reached some kind of compromise with Chack Chel.
From this point of view, Qi Xuansu's speculation is still relatively reliable - there is really something wrong with Kukulkan, and Chuck Chell really betrays Kukulkan.
It's just that Qi Xuansu didn't expect that the two speculations would all come true.
Kukulkan is a house leak that happened to rain overnight, not only did it have its own problems, but also was betrayed by Chuck Chel, so there is not much suspense about Kukulkan's fall.
When Ichichel inserts all of Chakchel's Locking Wheels into Ichichel's Silver Box, only a dagger handle remains, and endless moonlight pours out of the silver box, engulfing everything.
The whole kingdom of God fell into dead silence.
This is not the moonlight of Ichchel, but the power of the origin of the Taiyin.
After Quetzalcoatl became the sun god, he himself condensed the light of the sun, but in front of the moonlight, he failed to hold on for a moment and was also engulfed.
The essence of a solar eclipse is that the moon obscures the sun.
So in the end, it was the moon that made the sun dim.
When the moonlight gradually dissipated, the people who were sheltered by Ihichel were unscathed, and Kukulkan, who was not protected by Ihichel, had no strength to resist, lying on the golden platform, unable to move, the huge snake head hung weakly on the edge of the golden platform, and the golden snake pupils were extremely dim, reflecting Ichichel's figure.
Ichichel slowly pulled the "Chackchel's Locking Wheel" out of the "Ichichel's Silver Box".
"Chuck Cair's Locking Wheel" was originally dull and unremarkable, but after being pulled out of the silver box, the blade was still a blade, and its texture had changed to pure moonlight, like a moonblade unsheathed.
Ichchel slowly stepped forward holding the "Chakchel Lock Wheel", which had condensed countless moons: "Kukulkan, you were born between heaven and earth, supported by all the peoples, and ruled over the gods, but what merit do you have to steal the throne?"
It seems that the ancient gods were also influenced by the Central Plains of the West Daomen and began to use the moral logic of the Central Plains.
In fact, there is no way to do it, when the believers who pray to the gods start to use the Central Plains language, the gods will inevitably use the Central Plains language as well. When the believers are fully centralized, the centralization of the gods is inevitable, otherwise they can only abandon these believers.
In fact, the image of the gods of the Southern Continent has changed dramatically.
In the past, their images were very abstract, like stick figures, very eccentric, simple and crudely dressed, and often wore masks.
Now the gods of the Southern Continent have begun to move
The images of Daomen immortals and Buddhist Bodhisattvas are closer, for example, the new mural of the Moon Maiden Ichchel absorbs the characteristics of the Queen of Heaven and Buddhism Guanyin, and changes into the Central Plains costume, with large sleeves and wide robes, streamers and auspicious clouds, but the backlight behind the head is replaced by a full moon.
When the people of the Central Plains who didn't know saw it, most of them thought it was an unknown immortal, and they wouldn't think it was a god from the New World.
It's clear that Ichichel is actively moving closer to the Daomen, who often say that they unite everything that can be united, and that the more friends the better, and this is what can be united.
Ichichel began to announce Kukulkan's crimes:
"Thou art the Lord God, and hast made great sacrifices of blood, and thou hast not loved the world."
"As the Lord God, in the face of foreign enemies, you hide and shrink your head, you are greedy for food and clothing, and you are greedy for life and afraid of death."
"As the Lord God, you do not want to recover the old rivers and mountains, you are content with pleasures, you exclude dissidents, and you have not made an inch."
"Usurped the False King! I will judge you today on behalf of the gods."
Over the years, Kukulkan has devoured other priesthoods, carried out blood sacrifices internally, sought to break through and become a calamity immortal, or in Western terms, from an ordinary god to a god with primary divine power, he cherished his feathers too much in fighting against the Holy Court, and his achievements were lackluster, but Ichichel's words did not wronged him.
The "Chakchel Lock Wheel" in Ichchel's hand did not slash at Kukulkan, but slashed into the space above, tearing open a crack that looked like a galaxy.
Beyond the chasm, there are countless clouds of scarlet fire.
Ichchel muttered, "The scarlet fire guides you."
Kukulkan didn't even have the strength to scream, and he was unable to maintain the balance of the karmic fire, and was directly ignited by the karmic fire that fell from above.
At the same time, a golden flame that symbolized the sun gushed out from Kukulkan's body, which belonged to the sun god Misil.
However, these golden flames were soon engulfed by the scarlet karmic fire, and in a trance, countless souls in the scarlet karmic fire were wailing in pain, which was the backlash of those who died in blood sacrifices, and also became the talisman of Kukulkan.
Some gods are too powerful and do not abandon their own deities, plus the Shinto golden body, which is essentially two bodies, such as Izonozun.
Kukulkan was born a different species, and he also did not give up his feathered serpent body, and the first to fall at this time was Kukulkan's Shinto golden body.
I saw a golden giant gradually separated from Kukulkan under the burning of karmic fire, this is the golden body condensed by Kukulkan with divine power after becoming a god, and it is also his human form. bμν.
The golden body is claimed to be immortal, but at this time, it is like gold leaf, quickly melting in the karmic fire.
The karmic fire then gained a certain degree of "satisfaction", the fire was no longer so ferocious, and countless black qi escaped from it, and those dead souls also seemed to be overtaken and dissipated.
However, Kukulkan has accumulated too much karmic fire, and a large amount of karmic fire still falls from the cracks above, spreading to Kukulkan's Feathered Serpent's body, and continues to burn.
The god of rain and the god of death were a little terrified when they saw this scene.
Especially the god of death, Apche, who also likes blood sacrifices, even as a god with the priesthood of fear, it is inevitable that he will be afraid at this time, after all, the power of karmic fire is too strong, and Kukulkan, who is a quasi-immortal, cannot resist it. Then ordinary gods will not be an exception.
This is also the reason why Qi Xuansu thinks that he can challenge Kukul Kanrong if he has immortal cultivation, the key is the backlash of karmic fire, which is comparable to going mad. bμν.
On the contrary, Ihichel is more relaxed, as Qi Xuansu said, she is the one among the gods who opposes blood sacrifice, and it can even be said that Ichichel is the first person among the gods to open his eyes to see the world, the times are different, the world is different, those old methods in the past do not work now, and drastic reforms must be carried out.
In the past, it was not uncommon to see the blood sacrifice of living people, which was a kind of loophole that the world had not yet evolved completely, but now that the world has entered the Taiji period, these loopholes do not exist. It's like when Daomen was first established, he was inexperienced and made a lot of mistakes, but over time, these holes will be filled.
The decline of the Witch Cult and the rise of the Dao Sect were abolished
A sign of the Blood Sacrifice. The Central Plains completed the alternation of barbarism and civilization nearly 2,000 years ago, while the Southern Continent has dragged on until now.
In a sense, the word civilization is indeed in line with the heart of heaven and conforming to the will of the people.
While Ichichel wasn't all that clean, she caught the trend.
Whether it is a god or an emperor, its moral standards are different from ordinary people, when Emperor Taizong of Great Qi launched a palace mutiny, killed his brother and imprisoned his father, he is still an emperor through the ages, which shows that public morality is greater than private morality.
Ichchel grasped the abolition of blood sacrifices, which is the greatest public virtue.
Chuck Chel said that the Scarlet Fire would guide Kukulkan, and it has now been fulfilled.
The next step was to sacrifice Kukulkan.
The karmic fire began to burn the flesh and blood of Kukulkan, and the black smoke rising more and more, and the souls of the dead continued to dissipate.
Karma fire is not ordinary fire, not any water can be extinguished, even Tianyi true water can't do it, except for higher level powers, such as the Heavenly Tribulation, only through the sacrifice of the gods to extinguish the karmic fire, and it must be a god who has used blood sacrifices.
Kukulkan can certainly extinguish the karmic fire by hunting down other gods, but doing so will undoubtedly cause public anger, and the result of everyone endangering themselves is that the gods will unite to deal with Kukulkan first. Even if it doesn't cause public anger, it's difficult, even if it's a Dao Gate, it can only destroy one god, and it's difficult to capture one god alive, let alone sacrifice a god. When necessary, the gods can choose to self-destruct.
If the karmic fire cannot be extinguished, even if the gods enter the first death, the karmic fire will still be entrenched in the sky above the kingdom of God and will not dissipate, and it will burn like this for hundreds of years until the kingdom of God collapses.
When the karmic fire began to burn Kukulkan, Qi Xuansu saw that the karmic fire entrenched in the sky quickly dimmed, and the heavy fire clouds actually dissipated a lot.
As Kukulkan's body became smaller and smaller, the decay of the kingdom of God began to reverse, green grass grew on the barren land, the dilapidated palace became shiny again, and the birds and beasts with rotten sores and pus gradually returned to normal.
It seems that everything is moving towards the best outcome.
