Chapter 41: The Ancient Tribe of Suffering
The ball of light that rose from Bangna held the fire and swept towards the depths of the Forbidden Mountain.
Huo Xu looked ahead, and the wind sounded in his ears.
Dozens of zhang in front of her, the flying flower heroine with her backarm behind her, her graceful posture bending to the sky, but her blue eyes were cast into the shadowy peaks in the night, and her whole body was wrapped in a light gauze-like starlight, and a faint streamer flew with the graceful shadow.
Her posture when she summoned Star Power was noticeably different from Huoxu's.
Bonner looked at the graceful figure, his eyes were full of admiration, and he smiled proudly: "Young man, your exercises and techniques are indeed amazing, and the future can be expected, but the heroine of the flower stamen has fulfilled the mysteries of the Yuan Dao, and she is the chosen one who carries the will of the stars." ”
Not necessarily!
With a faint smile, Huo Xu didn't declare this denial in his heart.
In the Saint Realm, in this isolated realm, there are actually people who practice exercises that are exclusive to the realm of gods and men, and I am afraid that a legendary story is not enough to explain clearly.
What a shocking legend that must have been!
Suppressing the strong urge to hunt for curiosity, Huo Xu never mentioned the origin of the heroine's exercises.
Without the need for his mind to move, under the frequent touch of the starlight tail marks in front of him, his primordial spirit suddenly entered a state of deep awakening.
The sea of souls clearly reflects the "Taixu Chensu Jue", which is an indispensable basic technique for summoning star power, and has long been deeply rooted in his soul in this life.
The core elements of "Taixu Chen's Secret Formula" are like bait, completely fishing out the basic exercises running in the soul sea of the heroine of the flower stamen at the moment.
The technique she relied on to summon star power was the "Chaos Liechen Jue".
There was a tremor like a conditioned reflex in his heart, and Huo Xu was shocked to find that "Chaos Liechen Jue" also came from the middle realm of gods and men, and "Taixu Chenjue" was actually a sister chapter!
His Yuan Shen did not take the opportunity to engrave the Chaos Liechen Jue in its entirety, nor did he try to intercept the key information from it, but through the combination of the two techniques, he faintly pointed the direction of awakening to a supreme technique that seemed out of reach.
- Supreme Star Formula!
That's the foundation of the Supreme Realm!
Pulled by instinctive hope, the sea of souls poured towards the ethereal phantom of the exercises, but ······
The strength of his Yuan Force was not enough to support the Yuan Shen to open a larger soul sea, and the illusory projection eventually passed away.
It's just a little bit there!
When the starlight was exhausted and the heroine of the stamen fell, Huo Xu suddenly woke up, with a trace of regret, his legs were focused, and he landed with Bonna.
"The heroine of the stamen is back!"
"Lady Blossom!"
After a few soft screams, the silence of the night was broken by the sound of stumbling footsteps.
Dozens of huge amethyst lamps lit up one after another.
The bright lights reflect a large square paved by Yuanjing.
Countless people rushed forward, men, women and children, bowing their knees in front of the heroine of the stamen.
"Welcome to the heroine of the stamen!" The sound of tens of thousands of people rolling across the square and hitting the sky.
The heroine of the stamen raised her palms soothingly, "Everyone is exempt." ”
She turned her head sideways, her charming eyes turned to Huo Xu's face, and she said softly, "Can you tell the deity······ What's your name? ”
"Huoxu." Huo Xu blurted out.
The heroine of the stamen nodded with a smile, gave Bonner a command, turned around gracefully, and walked towards a gorgeous Yuanjing platform at the north end of the square.
Bonner stretched out his hand to invite: "Please move to the audience." ”
Huo Xu bowed his head, and then, together with Bonner, followed the back of the heroine of the stamen, and slowly walked to the high platform.
Tens of thousands of pairs of curious eyes focused on Huo Xu.
Among those people, there are not only white-haired old men, but also young spirit children and beautiful girls, and even babies in women's arms, although they are dressed simply, they all look thoughtful, and they can't find a crooked melon and cracked date.
If a certain creature looks and behaves like a human being, and its parents and children look exactly the same as a human being, then such a creature should be a human being.
Huo Xu no longer suspects that the heroine of the stamen is a beast that has transformed into a human.
His gaze passed over the dense crowd of human heads and swept towards the shadowy buildings on one side of the square.
Luxurious Yuanjing buildings and quaint wooden houses are intertwined, scattered on a high ground.
A Yuanjing building, the architectural style is like a temple palace, revealing a strong religious atmosphere, and the lights reflect the star-like painting on the lintel.
"The people here believe in the stars?"
After a little thought, Huo Xu quickly confirmed this speculation, and the kindness he received, coupled with Bonner's previous words, proved that the attitude of the Flower Stamen tribe towards the stars was no different from the attitude of all fetishists towards their respective deified objects.
Star painting is their totem.
The orange light shone brightly, and two guards wearing special armor flew to Yuanjing Terrace, standing at the east and west ends.
"Eyebrows······ Some are similar. An old man looked at Huo Xu with cloudy eyes, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and after a long time, he sighed: "If His Highness Fu Shu is still here, it should be so big!" ”
Hearing the word "Fu Shu", the heroine of the stamen shook her shoulders violently, and stood still like a wooden man.
In a trance, she sensed a familiar aura appearing nearby, so she subconsciously hurriedly stepped onto the Yuanjing platform and plunged into the open door behind the stage.
"Bang!" She slammed the wooden door shut.
On the square, Bonner was explaining the welcome etiquette to several middle-aged people, and when he saw the scene of the heroine leaving the scene with sadness, he couldn't help but squint at the old man, and said in a deep voice: "You talk a lot!" ”
······
Inside the door, an elderly man sat in a soft chair, the bright light cast by the amethyst lamp on the ceiling, reflecting the deep wrinkles on her face and the brown scars carved by the years.
She was originally condensing her faint vision, and through the open door, she looked at the fire Xu who was getting closer and closer under the stage, but the closed wooden door at the moment blocked her vision.
"Grandma! Woowoo woo ······"
The heroine of the stamen quickly waved her hand to build a soundproof barrier, and then rushed forward, knelt on the ground, and cried bitterly on the old man's knees.
The radiant heroine image collapsed in an instant, and those extreme indifference and arrogance also turned into a dreamlike past with a heartbreaking whimper.
Right now, she's just a weak woman. usually exudes the ultimate arrogance and majesty, all in order to completely seal the most painful scar in the bottom of my heart.
But just now, the scar was inadvertently brutally torn open.
"Xiyan, my good granddaughter, don't cry." The old man's eyes were red, he held back his tears, hugged the back of the person in his arms lightly with one hand, and rubbed her full hair with the other, but his tone was extremely firm:
"He's not Shu'er, you won't look away. It should be that someone else saw the young man and inadvertently mentioned Shu'er, which made you lose control of your emotions, right? ”
The heroine of the stamen almost forgot that she had a slightly small jasper name - Xi Yan.
Flowers!
If you simply analyze life with the meaning of this name, she should have a splendid flower season, and love beauty all her life, and her greatest wish is to be red, like a flower that will never wither and last forever.
However, fate forced her to face the cruelty of reality early.
The Hua clan has been the royal family of the flower stamen tribe since ancient times, and the flower stamen kings of all generations are her ancestors.
When she was fifteen years old, the chieftains of Shanxi and Shanbei at that time coerced nearly 1,000 strong men to launch a rebellion, and slaughtered millions of civilians who refused to submit to the rebellion in one day.
In order to stop the bloody killing, her father and mother led nearly a thousand strong men to fight to the death against the rebels, even at the cost of dying with the other party.
That battle lasted three days and three nights, and the process was so tragic that it has never been seen before.
The cost of quelling the rebellion was extremely high: both her parents had fallen, and none of the nearly 1,000 strong men who stood by Kuang Fu survived.
Afterwards, there were only three grandchildren left in Hua Xiyan's family, she had a grandmother who was nearly 100 years old and was not outstanding, and her younger brother Hua Fushu who was still in infancy.
The younger brother should not practice Zuo, and in desperation, the surviving Kuang Furen was in the snowy forest at the southern foot of Juan Mountain, supporting the fifteen-year-old Hua Xiyan as the temporary tribal heroine, planning to wait for Hua Fushu to grow up and then assist him on the throne.
From that day on, she put away her daughter's careful thoughts and ushered in a precocious life, and she spent almost all her energy on caring for her younger brother, managing the tribe, and cultivating hard.
She no longer belongs to herself.
"Grandma, seeing Shu'er grow up day by day, I myself have the ability to protect him, Xi Yan is really happy! The granddaughters are already planning his coronation and their wedding.
According to the preliminary process of the coronation ceremony of the new king, Shu'er must go to the ancestral tomb in Shanbei to pay tribute to the souls of her parents in the sky. But······ It's all granddaughter's carelessness!
That day, Wan Shanqing, the chief envoy of the altar, came to me to discuss important matters, and his granddaughter did not accompany Shu'er to go, he ······ How did you accidentally fall into the abyss of death? Woowoo woo ······"
Thinking of that past, Hua Xiyan couldn't cry, and blamed herself in her heart, feeling that her brother's unfortunate early death was all due to her negligence, and if she had stayed with her brother, the situation might have been different.
"Xiyan, my poor granddaughter, who fell together that time······ And your fiancé! ”
Speaking of this, the old man couldn't help but roll down two lines of tears, tried his best to calm down, and whispered: "You don't have to blame yourself, Shu'er went to the ancestral tomb to pay tribute to his deceased father and mother, and there was a left envoy, a middle envoy, three personal guards, plus your fiancé, the escort force is strong enough."
However, if someone has bad intentions, they can't prevent it!
What kind of miasma in the mountains, what natural strange force swept the human body, afterwards, these words thrown out of other people's mouths are not credible, grandma knows, you have a clear state in your heart, Shu'er's death is not an accident at all! ”
Hearing this, Hua Xiyan stopped crying, raised her head suddenly, and her blue eyes were filled with tears, and hatred trembled.
Seeing this, the old man hurriedly comforted: "Calm down, cherish Yan, the royal family is withering, you are the last lone seedling of the Hua clan, we can't afford to lose, if we lose, the Hua clan will be wiped out, and the Hua tribe will also bleed into a river!"
Grandma is old and has limited strength, so she can't help you, and today I also heard the news sent by Chief Shannan, so I rushed here to see if the young man you brought back was Shu'er, although grandma had already expected that Shu'er······ There is no chance of reappearing.
Grandma advises you, don't mess with yourself, so as to give the bad guys a chance!
This is your stage, grandma believes that Xi Yan is a great heroine, one day, you will use a very small price, clean up the portal, your actions will be brilliant for a thousand years, to comfort the ancestors of the Hua family in the spirit of the sky! ”
After saying this, the old man gently pushed Hua Xiyan, rolled the soft chair with wheels, and slowly slid into the back of the Yuanjing wall.
Kneeling on the ground and silent for a long time, Hua Xiyan took out a soft towel, wiped the tears on her face, and then got up and put on a pair of Yuanjing eye patches to cover her crying red eyes.
Taking her seat on a throne as white as snow, she waved her hand, and the barrier disappeared, and the Yuan Crystal wall in front of her suddenly disappeared, revealing a wide and unconcealed mesa.
A lotus-shaped golden canopy hangs more than a foot from the head, and the bright light of the amethyst lamp on it is projected, clearly reflecting the flawless face of the person in the seat, as well as the sitting posture with thousands of manners.
She raised her chin slightly, slowly scanning the audience, her blue eyes flowing out of the holes in the blindfold, except for the domineering contempt, which was buried deep in the bottom of her eyes.
Looking at Hua Xiyan, who hurriedly ran into the door and disappeared for a long time, and then waved off the wall and suddenly appeared, Huo Xu read the melancholy in her eyes, and couldn't help but think about it: As the heroine, where does her worry come from?
Bonner waved his hand toward the square.
As if receiving an order, the square was crowded, more than 2,000 people left the group, took up the light group, swept to the front of the stage at a low altitude, automatically discharged the order, stood in line, and bowed respectfully.
"Meet the Lady of the Flowers!"
The dazzling light and shadow have not yet disappeared, and Huo Xu has been shocked to the point that his brain is instantly short-circuited.
It was the first time he had witnessed such a spectacular air show in person, and he doubted that he was living in a dream.
The more than 2,000 people in front of him, both men and women, were all dressed in green shirts and kneeling on one knee in a highly consistent posture, and the nearest one was only a few feet away from Huoxu.
From the color of the Fang Cai Light Cluster, it can be seen that most of these people's strength is between the Yuan Master and the Peak Yuan Jue, and there are nearly twenty low-level Yuan Jue.
More than 2,000 strong people, plus the heroine of the flower stamen who has the peak strength of the Yuan Zai on the stage, the two low-level Yuan Zai personal guards, and the high-level Yuan Zai Bangna under the stage, such a powerful force, if you want to make trouble, it is enough to destroy the existing order of the entire Xihe planet!
Moreover, this is obviously not all of the core strength of the Flower Stamen Tribe!
During the day, Bonner had mentioned a man - Chief Shannan.
If there are chieftains in Shannan, there should be chieftains in Shandong, Shanxi, and Shanbei, and the princes of these places will definitely not rashly leave their respective territories and run to the seat of the heroine of the flower stamen to rub some of the vain etiquette heat······
"Excuse me!"
The lips opened lightly, Hua Xiyan slowly spit out this social line that she had already been familiar with, and looked sideways at Huo Xu in the audience, and a rare softness quietly flashed in her beautiful eyes.
"Thank you, Lady Blossom!"
More than 2,000 strong men stood up respectfully, all of them lowered their eyebrows and lowered their eyes, not daring to touch the blue eyes on the stage.
Hua Xiyan glanced at everyone in the audience lightly, her eyes swept over a familiar face, and finally landed on Huo Xu's side face again, and her mood completely calmed down.
During the day, she caught a glimpse of a young man from a distance at the southern foot of Juan Mountain, and she didn't think much about it at that time, but she couldn't help but remember her hard-working brother, so she had a trace of concern for Huo Xu's situation.
Later, she witnessed the boy's many bizarre performances almost the whole time, especially when she witnessed the scene where Huo Xu summoned star power on the top of the mountain, and she finally understood that he could help her.
"I hope that this use will go well, and don't let him fall into the misery of the Flower Stamen Tribe."
Sighing secretly, Hua Xiyan pointed at Huo Xu and said to everyone in the audience: "His name is Huo Xu, a newly recognized friend of the deity." ”
"Ahh
The sound of surprise sounded from the audience and spread to the black crowd in the square.
