Chapter 47: Make the Mountain People Great Again! (6600)
Whether Ian has mountain people blood is another matter, but he really has mountain people heritage, there is no doubt about this.
After driving away the Blade, Elder Manya took Ian and Qingchao back to the core of the Avod Ministry, that is, above the sacrificial room where Ian was 'recuperating', in the sacrificial platform on the mountainside.
Here, Ian once again summoned the sacrificial seal, causing the same silver-gray dragon shadow to appear inside the altar, and it swirled and rose from the altar like a living thing.
- It's not a forgery, Ian has indeed obtained the dragon god priesthood inheritance of Xiahui Lake!
After confirming this, in addition to the astonishment in Elder Manya's heart, ecstasy also emerged.
After hundreds of years, the true priest of the dragon god was born, and the inheritance has returned...... Could it be that my wish that has been almost unattainable for many years has finally come to fruition?!
However, after calming down, the old man knew that things would not be so simple.
Ian can obviously sit back and watch his breakthrough fail and become the real core high-level of the Nanling Dragon Worship Sect - Anfa is a Canaan Moor, the King of the Mountain and Xi'o are true dragons, and they are not of the same lineage as humans, and Pansha has no second energy level - he can obviously wait, use the most comfortable way to get power, and then use the sacrificial holy seal to gather the mountain people in the ministry.
But he didn't.
This represents only one possibility...... That's what Ian wants, far more than the power of the Cult of the Dragons and the Avood.
"Ian, what do you want to do?"
Taking a deep breath, Elder Manya said in a deep voice, "As long as I can meet the conditions, I can agree. But there are some things that even I can't do, and you can understand."
"It won't be that troublesome, I'm going to Gangshan Mountain." Ian said calmly, and he made no secret of his purpose: "Not those ordinary peaks that are impregnated by the power of the dragon god, but the real holy mountains that are revered as holy places by our mountain people."
"Holy Mountain...... Yes, yes."
The elder frowned, "What are you going to do there?" It has been silent for a long time, and the dragon god sacrifice fire lit by the former tribes has been extinguished for two hundred years......
"Yes, it needs to be silent for a long time, and it needs to be extinguished."
Ian smiled faintly, "And I'll go and set it on fire again."
As he said this, a water-colored halo flashed in the young man's eyes, revealing his firm will: "Elder Manya, I want to become a dragon god messenger in the true sense."
"Then, put an end to the turmoil that is taking place among the mountain people, so that the mountain people, or rather, all the human beings who live on this land, will prosper once again."
"That's what I'm here for."
"You want to put down this rebellion...... Use the Holy Mountain to prove your identity as a messenger...... "
Elder Manya was silent for a moment, then raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows.
He was about to say it couldn't be—but the old man was a little unsure when he was faced with Ian, who had given him several surprises.
"Okay." Finally, he made up his mind, "Then I'll take you there."
"But not yet." Elder Mancliff looked at Ian deeply, "You'll have to explain all of this for me...... Whether it's the Book of Silver or your legacy, I want to know."
"As it should be." The white-haired teenager smiled in agreement.
The bloodline of the Elder of the Cliff is the wind-attribute dragon beast 'Guardian Dragon' distributed around the Baisen Mountains.
A wurm that can stir up strong winds, move clouds, and dance in storms.
Once, there were several groups of dragons who served the god Baisen, and their legacy was left among the mountain people, but with the departure of the dragon god, the dragons also retreated into the depths of the mountain range.
In addition, the Book of Silver Yao is out, except for a few lucky people, such as the Elder of Manya, who has some bloodline because of his atavism, this Dragon Guard inheritance is basically completely lost.
But now, it has returned.
Under the guidance of the 'Ryujin Emissary'.
Ian, Qingchao, and Elder Manya walked towards the Iron and Steel Mountain.
After receiving the assurance that Ian can be trusted, Qingchao followed.
The swordsman himself was actually a little hesitant, not knowing if he was worthy of participating in such an important event at first glance.
And Ian disagreed: "There will be a lot of big scenes to see in the future, you better start getting used to it now."
"And I need your testimony."
"How big could it be?" The swordsman muttered to himself, "I don't have this kind of scenery in my hometown...... Oh my God, it's beautiful."
He looked at the scenery in front of him and couldn't help but admire.
The long mountain path reflects the moon-white light in the moonlight at night, and it winds its way forward into the mountains, and at the end is a high peak, a mountain of blue-black metal.
That's the Iron and Steel Mountain.
The Avod tribe has guarded the holy place for generations, and the name of the Elder of the Cliff is also taken from a poem by the mountain people Walking on the Long Cliff", and the people are now walking on the Long Cliff, which is a cliff bridge formed by the intersection of two mountain peaks.
From here, you can overlook most of the Gangshan Mountain Range, and at the bottom of the cliff is a dense mountain forest with red and yellow, and there are streams flowing in the forest, reflecting the moonlight in the sky.
On the side of the mountain forest, there is the gathering place of the Avod tribe, where the golden lights are intertwined, like a chessboard woven by light.
In this name, Elder Manya believed that it was his duty to protect the tribe and the mountain people, and the dragon blood in his body made him firmly believe that he was born as a chosen person to pull the mountain people out of the abyss.
But now, he's a little skeptical.
Not because of other mountain people, but because of one ...... The white people who claim to have the blood of the mountain people.
Along the way, Ian revised some details of his experience in Avak Territory and told Elder Cliff.
In his mouth, when he was in the imperial capital, he had already read all the contents of the transcript of the Book of Silver Yao through the channel of Count Phoenix, and sensed the unique aura of the Book of Silver Yao.
In the Azure City laboratory, he sensed the breath of the Book of Silver Shine again, and faintly resonated with the spiritual energy in the book in the subspace labyrinth, and obtained some inheritance.
And as if it was also destined by God, after Ian returned to the Ryan Collation, because of these inheritances, he successfully obtained a more complete sacrificial inheritance from Xiahui Lake.
The sacrificial seal is proof of this.
It sounds, and it's actually all made up by Ian, but it's not impossible.
As psionic creations that host psionic souls, the Magic Book and the Holy Book will search for inheritors on their own.
If Ian is really the chosen son of the dragon god and the true messenger of the dragon god, as he said, then it will not be difficult to get the approval of the Book of Silver Yao.
It's something that can't be faked.
Multiple lies, ending with a single truth, Elder Manya can't find any flaws.
Even if you find out...... So what?
Ian did give him the complete potion recipe for the third level of the Guardian Dragon, as well as the related advanced rituals.
- When you enter the clouds on a stormy day, the spiritual energy field condensed by itself stirs up the clouds to form a vortex of a specific shape, and you can advance by taking potions when a large number of wind attribute natural essentia gathers.
Although it had not yet been verified, Elder Mancliff's years of experience in studying his own bloodline convinced him that the recipe and ritual Ian had given were correct.
This also convinced the Cliff Elder that Ian was indeed not on the same side as the Empire.
"You said you wanted to go to the Iron and Steel Mountain, and it was the dragon god who guided you. Truth be told, Ian, the dragon god doesn't guide anyone, not the mountain people or the white people."
"Even if he hadn't died, he wouldn't have come back now, I'm sure of that."
Walking on the top of the long cliff, the Elder of the Cliff said slowly: "But I don't care about your lies, the Holy Land has been blocked for many years, whether it is the Flying Flame Land or the Empire, and even our mountain people themselves are not allowed to enter, you can get the sacrificial holy seal, it can be said that you are closer to the identity of the dragon god's people than our mountain people."
"What if you really can get something out of the Steely Mountain...... Then, the Ministry of Avod will fully recognize your identity as a dragon envoy."
Before, Elder Manya recognized Ian's identity as the envoy of the dragon god, essentially only admitting the dragon blood that Ian possessed, he only endorsed this for Ian, and the rest was blown out by the young man himself by hiring a bard in Nanling.
But this time, what the old man promised was the full support of the Avod tribe' - whether Ian wanted to conquer the other mountain tribes or become the mountain people's co-leader, the Elder of the Cliffs would support it.
"I will use practical actions to prove that I am indeed a person who has been blessed by the dragon god, and that I am a mountain people."
Ian didn't care what Elder Mancliff said, he just stuck to his rhetoric, "As long as I can go to Iron Mountain, I can definitely convince you of this."
Elder Manya was silent, he felt that the reason why he had not made much progress in the matter of unifying the mountain people for so many years might be because he lacked a face like Ian.
- If you want to call yourself a mountain man, at least you have to tan your skin!
After crossing the long cliff, you can face the mountain of Gonggang Mountain, the surface of the mountain with black metal texture is surrounded by clouds, after hundreds of years of wind and rain, it is still smooth as new, and the oblique mountain wall is like a mirror reflecting the deep sky, giving people a sense of desolation and loneliness.
Birds hovered under the clouds, chirping.
Just in terms of appearance, Gonggang Mountain is indeed a magical place beyond the imagination of ordinary people, worthy of the name of the holy land of mountain people.
"At the top of the mountain is the former Dragon's Lair Altar, where the dragon god once slept for ten years, and his power turned the entire mountain into steelstone, making the fragile rocky mountain indestructible."
At this time, there was no road under his feet, and the Elder of Manya looked up at the top of the Iron and Steel Mountain, and behind the clouds, there was an ancient and dusty black rock sacrifice ground.
The old man gazed at the sacred mountain, and he introduced to Ian in a tone that was a mixture of nostalgia and pride, "This is the epitome of the former glory of our mountain people, and every ten years when the people of the dragon god were at their peak, the leaders of the tribes would gather here to decide the future of the tribes."
"At that time, on the top of the dark holy mountain, there will be a silver-white light lit, and the torch of the dragon god's sacrificial fire will shine on the mountains of heaven and earth, like a second sun."
"Ian, our ancestors once overlooked the mountains from the top of this mountain, and the people of the dragon god roamed and grew up in this mountain range—the mountain people call themselves mountain people, not the savage mountain savages of your empire, our mountains are the grass and trees in this mountain range, the bright moonlight in this silent sky, the rivers and streams flowing in the mouth of the gorge, the deep lakes of peace and tranquility...... In this mountain, under the ancient altars, in the smoke of the clans, is our homeland."
"The mountain is our homeland, a symbol that unites us."
"And now, it's all in the past. The people of the mountain god are falling apart, and I can only watch as this happens, and I can't even stop it."
Ian listened to Elder Mancliff's words, and he could hear the anguish in them, which was obviously a piece of the other party's heart.
The reason why the elder has not advanced to the third energy level for a long time may be because he has not changed the trend of division and chaos among the mountain people, he has not fulfilled his wishes, and he cannot believe in his beliefs and dreams.
Therefore, the soul and the body cannot resonate and complete the final, unified, giving birth to the mind light body.
According to Ian's analysis, the real difficulty of the third energy level is actually the resonance and synchronization between the two thinking organs, the 'brain', which represents the thinking center of the body, and the 'soul', which represents the essence of psionic energy.
When the second energy level gives birth to the soul, it begins to carry a lot of brain work, whether it is memory, calculation, or the skill of manipulating essentia, the soul is gradually absorbing nutrients, condensing its own structure, becoming more and more agile and fast, and when the soul can be completely used as a 'second brain' and become the second thinking center of the sublimator, the sublimator generally reaches the peak of the second energy level.
However, the way of thinking and even logic of these two centers of thought may not be the same.
Just as the left and right sides of the brain have different functions and are independent of each other, so the same is true of the soul, where the brain and soul are likely to come up with different answers to a question at the same time—a sense of confusion and confusion that may lead to auditory hallucinations similar to demonic whispers.
Some people with severe symptoms may even hallucinate, unable to correctly perceive everything around them, and simply become a completely changed person as if possessed by demons.
Terra's Ascendants have a very simple way to deal with this.
That's 'desire'.
Ambitions, dreams, desires, or desires – any word is fine, but in short, the sublimator must correctly recognize the desires in his heart and put them into practice and sublimate them into ultimate, beliefs'.
A belief that is so strong that the brain and soul of the sublimator have the same 'consensus'."
With this as an opportunity, the mind and soul can merge into one, and the soul and body can be completely blended, and then condensed, the heart and body'.
Naturally, Elder Manya's soul had already been condensed, and his body was even more polished to perfection, and in the Foresight Horizon, the Elder Manya that Ian saw was dark purple, with a hint of blue light inside, which was a sign of the peak of the second energy level.
Theoretically speaking, at this point, even if it is a dragon, Elder Manya has an extremely high success rate, so that he will not risk his life to fight for his life.
However, his dreams and beliefs are flawed.
It's a shame to say, the old man may not believe that he can unify the mountain people, so that the people of the Baissen Mountains can be brought under the same banner.
So, he's stuck here.
The third level is such a troublesome thing, it has nothing to do with talent, it is just a belief in one's own philosophy..... That's why Mikael said that as long as he becomes the third level, he will no longer deceive himself, have absolute rational and objective self-knowledge, and will never make any mistakes in subjective bias.
This sublimation of the mode of thinking is also the most important characteristic of the sublimator in addition to strength.
Ian is actually stuck here, too.
Avak Labs, catalyzed by the power of the Dead King, has a mind light, and Ian's belief is to 'go to heaven', and both his brain and soul believe that this is his wish.
However, under the guidance of Mentor Gan Song, Ian understood a little.
It is indeed his belief to go to the heavens...... But this belief is not big enough, it is not vast enough, it is not vast enough.
It can represent Ian's own dreams, but it doesn't fully represent the dreams of those who believe in Ian, follow Ian, and look at Ian with anticipation.
Hilliard, Elder Pudd, Master Gosai, Isengard, Green Tide, Scott, and Adbort...... These people are more or less in the hands of Ian, who have put their dreams in the hands of Ian.
Even...... Even Inaga II, who had never been masked, took out the silver chip and handed it over to Hilliard in the hope that someone could come after him to complete his unsuccessful career.
There should never be just one star.
"Ian...... If you are really a dragon emissary, then you must understand."
At this moment, Elder Manya whispered, "The Holy Mountain has been silent for hundreds of years, and there are countless people who want to reawaken it and find out its mysteries—and they all fail without exception."
"But if you can make the Holy Mountain shine again—because of you."
"Then the mountain people may be able to rally under your command."
The old man turned his head sideways and stared at the young man's side face: "Do you have faith?"
"Can you make it?"
"I'm going to make it."
The boy's side face was extremely calm, and his tone was not confident, but an indifferent declaration, announcing the facts of the future.
For a moment, the old man was in a trance, as if the young man in front of him was simply a prophet who had foreseen the future.
He didn't believe it, but he took it for granted that it would end well.
And in the trance of the Cliff Elder, Ian had already stepped forward.
He stepped on the solid bluestone mountain, and climbed to the top of the mountain step by step.
In the Foresight Horizon, the entire mountain of steel is a 'sublimation material' with a blue mist...... And under such a huge and pure mist, there was a mixture of gold and silver mist shining.
It was a cylindrical thing, buried right in the middle of the mountain.
As Ian guessed, the Iron and Steel Mountain, which was guarded by the Avod Ministry, did have an important legacy left by the former Baisen Dragon God - but whether it was the fragments of the Skyfall Ship or something else, Ian was not sure now.
The fragments of the skyfall spaceship should not be so common, but the secret inside the steel mountain must have a lot to do with the real dragon.
The majestic and precipitous pitch-black mountains reach into the depths of the heavens like a sharp sword, clouds hovering beside its peaks, and fierce winds stirring at its peaks.
As Ian walked between the rocks, alone over the clouds and the wind, he could sense that the silver chip in his body was vibrating and reacting, and the imprint of the Book of Silver Shine was vibrating, and an invisible message was circulating between the two.
"Mountain People...... You want unity, and I need my people—the Radiant Leader is too small to fulfill my wishes."
Whispering to himself, Ian's tone was not firm, not convinced, but calm without any emphasis: "So, it's up to me."
"I'm here to lead you to the future I'm going to build."
This is the true meaning of the blue star that guides the way......
Pioneer, pioneer.
The one who shows the way.
【Permission Confirmation ......】
Faintly, a slight stream of information can be felt flowing in the heart.
Then, under Ian's feet, silver-gray lines lit up one after another.
Intricate and sacred inscriptions emerge as he climbs, each time a footprint falls, lighting up a bright and glorious path on the mountain in the middle of the night.
A path of silver-white light leading to the top of the mountain was spreading at Ian's feet, making the entire pitch-black holy mountain reflect this brilliant light.
"Oh my God?!" "How is that possible?!"
Looking at this scene, both Qingchao and Elder Manya let out an exclamation, the former because he simply sensed a huge essentia reaction, while the latter's eyes widened because of the vision that appeared on Ian and the Holy Mountain, which had never appeared even in the heyday of the mountain people!
At this moment, Elder Manya had already 100% believed in the identity of Ian's Dragon God Envoy - no matter what white people and mountain people he was, in the final analysis, the people of the Dragon God were a group of humans who were protected by the true dragon, if Ian was indeed recognized by the true dragon, then he was a more pure-bred mountain people than everyone else!
"Yes...... Why not me?" A flash of unwillingness flashed in his heart, but soon, the old man had no energy to care about these little things.
Because the entire Sacred Mountain of Gonggang emitted a slight hum.
It's trembling.
At this moment, whether it was the Cliff Elder or Qingchao who were present, or the many mountain people in the Avod Department not far away, dozens of different mountain tribes in the distance—it could even be said that all the mountain people in the entire Baisen Mountain Range subconsciously raised their heads at this moment and looked in the direction where the Iron and Steel Mountain was located.
Their veins were vibrating, and there was an invisible force that made it difficult for them to calm their minds.
Nanling, Midra Autonomous Region, Jiamu Department.
Chief Kod Jam stood on a meditation tower built on a rocky hill among the tribes, a middle-aged man with a much younger complexion touching his beard, looking down on the thriving tribe in front of him, the alchemy workshop that was gradually being built, and the element crystallization production line not far away.
He couldn't help but smile from the bottom of his heart.
This recent period can be said to be the most complacent time for Chief Jiamu - with the help of Flying Flame Land and his own planning for many years, he has finally advanced to the third level and become the leader of the Independent Mountain People Alliance in the true sense of the word, even if the person in charge of Flying Flame Land talks to him, he is no longer as angry as in the past, but wants to negotiate with him.
Indeed, the independent mountain people's attack on Xiahui led them to fail, and they lost a lot of men and equipment...... But that's not his tribe!
The decline of the Serpent Rock, the Earthquake Boat and the Iron Dust Department just gave him the opportunity to annex and absorb, and it was also in line with his momentum of becoming the third energy level that Chief Jiamu successfully placed the two element crystallization production chains in his own tribe.
In this way, Tajiamubu will become the core of the independent mountain people in the absolute sense!
"The next thing to do is to cooperate with the dragons and conquer the Frodo Autonomous Region one by one, and when the time comes, with an outlet to the sea, the Flying Flame Land will be able to send more supply resources!"
Thinking of this, Chief Jiamu's heart couldn't help but tremble slightly, he felt that the independence that was originally just lip service seemed to be no longer a dream, but an achievable future!
And he will also become the holder of the supreme power of the Mountain Alliance in the future..... The first leader to truly dominate the mountain people once again!
But just as Chief Kamu clenched his fists and imagined the future.
He suddenly looked stunned and stopped all movements.
Turning his head slowly, Chief Jiamu looked in the direction of the Iron and Steel Mountain with an expression of disbelief.
There, in the heavenly dome, where there were only a few faint clouds, suddenly lit up with a silver-white light—a brilliance that all the living mountain people had never really seen, but they had heard from the mouths of their ancestors, from the legends left by their ancestors.
It was the torch of the sacred mountain, the flame of the dragon god...... The revival of the Holy Mountain of Gonggang once again indicates that the mountain people are prosperous again!
"How is this possible?!"
He was dumbfounded, and Chief Jammu leaned forward, nearly falling off the meditation tower.
But the man didn't have time to react to this embarrassing gaffe, and he looked at the sky in disbelief: "The sacrificial fire of the dragon god - actually lit again?!"
A rumor suddenly came to the chief's mind, and he shook his head and muttered to himself in disbelief, "Could it be that the messenger of the dragon god that has been circulating in recent times...... "
"Really?!"
