Next up are the heavily armed knights Kellan and Cade who are surrounded by Richard. Kellan was to Richard's right, and the shadow was in her way. However, like Gordon, she turned a blind eye to this abrupt existence, and urged her mount to maintain an unhurried pace as usual. So the next moment, the iron hooves of the war horse trampled on the head of the black shadow! The only thing that could be seen was the two front hooves raised by the war horse, which ignited a layer of misty flames at the moment of leaving the ground, obviously Kailan had already attached a fighting spirit to the horse's hooves, and if this stampede hit, it would be no less than her full blow!

The black shadow didn't dare to make a quick move, but Gordon's knights were not afraid to cut anything in their way!

The darkness lasted for a moment, but it retreated like lightning as Iron Hoof was about to step overhead, and then disappeared into the darkness. In the end, he still didn't dare to attack, he didn't dare to fight back, he could only retreat. As the shadow left, Richard suddenly felt that the trees on both sides of the road were suddenly much quieter.

The team walked less than a hundred meters further, and from the fork in the road ahead, there was a sudden sound of hooves, and a group of royal knights in costume rushed forward, and the first knight saw Gordon from a distance, and immediately shouted: "Lord Gordon, I am ordered by His Majesty the Emperor to escort you to the Eternal Dragon Hall for the sacrificial ceremony!"

When the Royal Knight appeared, Richard knew he was safe. However, the first part of the road still has to be walked by itself, and if you can't rely on your own strength to get to this intersection, then this team of royal knights will never appear.

Both teams greet each other, then dismount and walk the last distance to show their devotion to the dragon of eternity and time.

There were already two rows of young and beautiful girls standing at the entrance of the temple, and the pale yellow high-necked divine robes made them look elegant and holy, and even more attractive. These maidens are all clergy of the Eternal Dragon Temple, and as the number of gods increases, the rank will go all the way up from priests, priests, and priests, until they climb to the top priest who is in charge of the entire Dragon Temple. It is already an open secret that the dragon of eternity and time favors beautiful women.

The royal knights stopped at the door, and the ranks of the Akmunds continued to advance, and among the heavily armed knights, Richard, who was wearing a wizard's robe, carrying two chests and one large and one small, stood out.

Stepping into the twenty-meter-high temple gate, the scene in front of Richard suddenly changed, and he was in a vast desert. As far as the eyes can see, there is no boundary in the field of vision, as if there is no horizon, and the sky seems to be a continuation of the sand and gravel on the earth, but it seems to have been ground into fine powder by some force, covering the dome. Nearby, between the sand dunes are several broken stone pillars, full of traces of erosion by wind and sand. From the outside, the Eternal Dragon Hall only covers an area of about one square kilometer, but inside the Dragon Hall is a desert and ruins that even Richard's precise talent cannot accurately measure.

In the center of the field of vision, there is the ruins of a temple that has collapsed most of it, and you can only recall the prosperity and glory of the temple in the past from the few remaining stone pillars that still need to be looked up to, and the half-wall of the rock wall that is still imposing. In the middle of the ruins is an equally dilapidated stone platform, where sacrifices are made to the dragons of eternity and time.

More than a dozen pale golden bands of light flew from all over the desert and converged in front of the team to form a huge hourglass, and then the hourglass shattered, and out of it came a woman with a sacred and majestic temperament. She was dressed in a white robe, a triple crown on her head, and a pale gold scepter in her hand. The robes and crowns are adorned with intricate golden ornaments, revealing a rich and desolate taste.

Gordon stepped forward and bowed: "Honorable Grand Priest Van Lin, this is Richard, my son, and the one who sacrificed this time. ”

Van Lin smiled and nodded. Her smile is beautiful and gentle, but with an indifference and detachment that does not belong to the world, there is a taste of standing on the top of all beings overlooking the world.

The Grand Priest looked at Richard and smiled, "Lucky boy, I hope that your piety will satisfy the Supreme Eternal and the Dragon of Time. The ceremony is all ready, and I'll go to the altar and wait for you. When you're ready, you can come to me and start the ceremony. With that, the Grand Priest stepped on a pale golden band of light and landed towards the altar.

"Preparation?" Although Richard temporarily made up the process of sacrifice, he didn't know what else to prepare besides the sacrifice.

Gordon laughed, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "There is nothing to prepare, even if it is the same sacrifice, different people will get different results when they go to sacrifice, so boy, it depends on your own luck." Oh, by the way, one thing I forgot to tell you, because Akmund has his own floating island, so after the sacrifice the Eternal and Time Dragons will ask how to divide the gifts between the family and yourself. Remember, answer all to yourself! Okay, go ahead, good luck, boy!"

So Richard dragged the two boxes to the altar in the middle of the desert, although it had the effect of levitation, but the weight of the devil and the devil was really not light.

After Richard stood still, he couldn't help but look around. Only by standing in front of the altar can we truly feel the desolation and vicissitudes carried for a long time since ancient times, with no beginning or end, no matter how much prosperity will wither and wither in the years, and turn into ruins that are only for future generations to mourn out of thin air. But why not renovate it again?

As if seeing through the doubts in Richard's heart, Grand Priest Van Lin said gently: "Child, all the true temples of the Dragon of Eternity and Time are in ruins like this, and they can never be repaired. No matter how luxurious the temple we build here and how powerful the magic array is, when the sacrifice begins, all traces of man-made will be completely shattered and washed away by the torrent of time. Nothing can resist the erosion of time, and even miracles will only become the scene before your eyes after the alternation of endless epochs. ”

"Thank you for your teachings. Richard's heart moved, as if he sensed something from it, he bowed slightly, as the teachers of the dark blue used to do, and asked, "What should I do now?"

"Prepare your sacrifice first. Fan Lin commanded, and when she saw Richard opening the two boxes next to the altar, she couldn't help but be slightly moved with her indifference, and said, "The head of the great devil? This is...... It's the heart of a demon lord! So let's start the ritual now, the Demon Lord's heart can't be left for too long. ”

With his hands crossed over his chest, he bowed his head slightly in front of the altar and chanted a long and mysterious incantation with devotion and concentration. As the syllables of the incantation were spit out one by one, pale golden divine inscriptions began to fall from the void sky, and golden rain began to fall. Bursts of desolate and mysterious aura poured out of the void and gradually spread. Gradually, the sky darkened, and finally it completely lost the meaning of color and turned into complete nothingness.

After completely transcending the nothingness of time and space, a cosmic world full of vitality slowly appeared, and countless shining brilliant stars followed completely different world laws. At first, Richard was still curiously trying to identify and touch the meaning of the divine text, but finally was completely seized by the world outside the void, as if the whole person was sucked in, and he even felt that his blood was rushing, not the kind of violent spray when the bloodline ability was awakened, but the desire and pursuit from the source of life.

If the aria is tuned to the most**, Fan Lin's voice suddenly rises, and it is like a dragon roaring from the nine heavens!

She used the scepter in her hand to tap the altar in front of Richard, and the broken and weathered stone platform suddenly shot out a dazzling golden light, forming a pillar of light of immeasurable length, shooting straight into the sky! The radius of the pillar of light gradually expanded, enveloping the entire ruins in it, and countless meaningless divine inscriptions began to rise and fall on the outer wall of the pillar of light. In the air, there were faint bursts of dragon roars, and there was the sound of wind and sand whistling.

When a huge and incomparable coercion descended from the void, the Grand Priest of Van Lin also withdrew from the range of the pillar of light, and only Richard was left in the altar. From this moment on, the people standing outside the range of the pillar of light could no longer see a single sight inside the pillar of light.
