Chapter 18: The Ascension Ceremony

Faced with the two choices given by the Yuanlong Daoist, the black robe was silent for a long time, and finally made a decision: "My lord, I should stay in this Moluo Heaven, so that it will be convenient for me to carry out the 'Ascension Ceremony' in the future.... After all, it was impossible for a monk to break through to the Jindan stage by relying only on normal cultivation. ”

"Good!"

Seeing that the black robe could have such ambitions, Yuanlong Daoren's eyes showed appreciation: "It is worthy of the person that my Yuanlong fancies, you remember, if you can't cultivate the golden pill, you will be an ant for the rest of your life, and you will be trapped by the spiritual light array for eternity." ”

The black robe replied respectfully: "Subordinates keep it in mind!" ”

Yuan Long continued: "Tomorrow, when the Ascension Plan is successfully completed, you can take advantage of the situation to occupy this City Lord's Mansion, and even let your subordinates loot it to win people's hearts." ”

"But..."

When he said this, Yuanlong Daoren's words changed sharply, and his tone became serious.

He advised: "But no matter how you plunder, you must remember not to hurt the lives of the high-ranking people in the city, and if you rob their property, you must return it in full afterwards.... As for the belongings of the low-level monks and commoners, you can divide the account with your subordinates. ”

The black robe nodded and said, "Everything is under the orders of the city lord." ”

"Hmm...."

Seeing that everything that should be said had been said, Yuanlong Daoist waved his hand: "You go back, if you don't see you again, the rebel army may be suspicious." ”

"Okay, then the subordinate will leave!"

After some discussion, the black-robed Chongyuan Dragon Daoist bowed his hand, and walked out of the hall of the City Lord's Mansion quickly....

among the walls.

Su Xing, who heard the conversation between the two clearly, also immediately followed behind the black robe and followed the other party all the way out of the inner city.

Xu is to hide people's eyes.

When the black robe left the inner city, he did not leave directly from the city gate, but chose a hidden corner and had people send him down the city wall with hanging baskets.

Outside the inner city.

As soon as the black robe got off the wall, he looked around.

Seeing that there was no one left and right, he took out the highly recognizable black robe from the storage bag and put it on, and left in a hurry while the night was dark.

The rebel army led by the black robe only had a few dozen Qi cultivation stage cultivators, and the remaining more than two hundred people were all low-level mortals.

But with more than 200 mortals, the black-robed rebel army actually fought back and forth with dozens of foundation building monks in the City Lord's Mansion.

The reason for this is mainly due to the strengthening of the 'Shou' statue.

This is the information that Su Xing heard in the City Lord's Mansion.

The enhancement of 'Shou' can not only greatly increase the combat power of mortals, but also serve as a sacrifice for the 'Ascension Ritual'.

Out of curiosity about strengthening, about the 'Ascension Ritual'.

Seeing the black robe walking straight to the rebel garrison, Su Xing, who was hiding in the city wall, also followed closely at night.

The two of them soon returned to the rebel garrison.

The insurrectionary army was loosely managed internally.

Su Xing was only familiar with the other people because he had a familiar face because he had rushed into battle with others before, so he successfully blended in....

Maybe it's because I'm worried that there won't be enough sacrifices for tomorrow's 'Ascension Ritual'.

After the black robe returned to the station, he was not in a hurry to rest, but gathered several mortals who had newly joined the rebel army, intending to strengthen them.

Like this kind of excitement, Su Xingzi will not miss it.

In the rebel garrison.

When the new mortals arrived, the black robe ordered someone to bring a statue that looked like a cloud, messy and unaesthetically devoid of beauty.

This statue, Su Xing is more and more familiar with it....;

Isn't this the statue of Shou that was placed in the central square of the inner city and has the ability to bewitch people's minds?

The black robe, actually moved the statue to the barracks?

in the crowd.

Su Xing observed carefully for a moment, and soon noticed something different.

Compared with the 'Shou' statue in the City Lord's Mansion Square, the 'Shou' statue in this barracks is significantly smaller.

Furthermore.

This statue does not look as lifelike as it does in the square of the City Lord's Mansion.

Or it can also be said ....

This statue is far from the evil gate on the square of the city lord's mansion.

Under the guidance of the black robe, the few mortals who had newly joined the rebel army knelt down to the statue of 'Shou' and began to kowtow continuously.

"Follow me."

The black robe stood on the left side of the statue and whispered: "In the eternal mansion, in the abyss, the indescribable thing that sleeps is waiting. ”

The newlyweds knelt on the ground and repeated in unison: "In the eternal mansion, in the abyss, the unspeakable things that sleep forever wait." ”

The black robe continued, "In my body, I serve the all-knowing and all-powerful God of great life. ”

The newcomers continue to repeat....

After the two prayers of unknown meaning were finished, the statue of 'Shou' immediately moved.

Su Xing could clearly see that after those newcomers finished their prayers, countless black gases came out of their bodies.

But except for Su Xing himself, these black gases didn't seem to be visible to the rest of the people present.

In a short time, the black qi gathered in the air and turned into countless 'black silk threads', which poured into the statue one after another.

This scene, Su Xing also felt extremely familiar when he looked at it:

The statue of 'Shou' can absorb the 'black silk thread' emitted by human beings.

And after he sells life-saving medicine, he can also absorb the 'black silk thread' emitted by humans.

This made Su Xing have a guess in his heart:

So, is there some kind of connection between the life pill and the statue? Or is there some kind of connection between himself and the statue?

When Su Xing absorbs the 'black silk thread', he needs to sell life pills to others as a medium.

Equally.

When the statue absorbs the 'black thread', it follows some similar rules.

After the 'Shou' statue absorbed the 'black silk thread', it only took a moment for it to release a burst of white gas.

As soon as these gases appeared, they quickly rushed towards the newlyweds.

Under the influence of the white gas, the skin of the newlyweds became more radiant, the muscles of the whole body were swollen, and even the eyes became more energetic.

The change is not obvious, but it is immediately apparent.

If I had to describe it in one word, it would be that this group of newcomers has become much younger.

- The statue of 'longevity' seems to have the effect of absorbing human life and giving human life.

Lifespan and longevity are two different concepts.

When a person's life span is exhausted, a life ghost will be born in his chest, taking away his life, blood, soul, and everything.

And if a person's life is robbed, they will age rapidly in a short period of time, their hair will become gray, and their skin will have wrinkles....

The opposite is true.

When a person has gained a large amount of life, he will not gain a longer lifespan, but he will be able to increase his physical strength and energy.

And when these lifespans are so much that quantitative changes cause qualitative changes.

This is reflected in the fact that the strength has been greatly improved.

It's like the mortals in the rebel army who have been strengthened by the 'Shou' statue.
