Chapter 114: The Altar
"Still thinking about him?" , Zhang Xu's sudden words made He Ling, who was in a daze behind him, stunned for an instant.
Without waiting for He Ling to explain, Zhang Xu sneered and said, "Maybe I'm too narrow-minded, I'm sorry"
He Ling looked at his smiling face and took a deep breath and said, "Ah Xu, don't worry, I will never betray you."
"Of course I know", Zhang Xu smiled, and he didn't know why, his left eye just didn't wear any covering, and the empty darkness was like the entrance to the abyss, which made He Ling a little afraid to look at each other.
"Remember Your Duty and Protect Me"
"Always follow me, no matter what I do", Zhang Xu looked at the fragrant back of the guide, and Mu Ran smiled and didn't speak.
He Ling nodded behind him, did not speak but rubbed his arm, just now Zhang Xu said that he had just mastered the technique and was not too proficient.
A deceased suddenly attacked He Ling, although there was no major problem, but it was full of pain.
Of course, she knew that it was a warning from Zhang Xu, and she could only smile bitterly at it.
If you do something wrong, it's a punishment...
The altar is the focal point of people's connection with the gods.
It is a sacred space that is used for various rituals and sacrifices, as well as the replacement of the identity of the voice of the deity, the re-incarnation of the incarnation or the guidance of the altar, and the reawakening of the deity to the world.
The altar is located in a huge stone henge that stands above the earth and symbolizes a mountain peak or boulder.
There is also the carved stone tree, which is like a sacred tree, full of mystery and solemnity, and the wind passes through the stones, carrying a smell that blows from ancient times.
Not rotten, but full of unknown and profound.
At altars in ancient times, people prayed to the gods for a good harvest, victory, health and longevity.
They offer sacrifices to the gods as a sign of respect and gratitude, and these sacrifices may include animals, food, and even humans.
The altar itself is a large platform, carved out of huge stone.
Its surface is engraved with mystical symbols and patterns that represent various powers related to the gods.
There is a groove in the center for offerings, blood, inscriptions, orbs.
Inside the altar there is a circular open space, which is where ceremonies and sacrifices are held.
There are some fire pits at the edge of the clearing, and you can still faintly see the traces of time, as if there were people who came here to worship a long, long time ago when the world was completely silent.
The altar is surrounded by a wilderness, with vast expanses of earth and dense forests in the distance, and the sky is vast and the light of the star curtain is clearly visible.
When Zhang Xu and the others arrived, the guide closed his eyes as if he was very reminiscing, and she echoed the memory of time in the altar.
The slowly bulging nose seemed to feel that time was transmitting a message to her.
After a long time, the guide opened her eyes and smiled cheeks to look at everything around her, as if this place was still as lively in her eyes as it was back then.
Crowds, creatures, and races of all races revolve around here to listen to the messengers of the gods.
What a beautiful time it was, peaceful, everything was peaceful, I don't know why there are always some people who want to overthrow everything that is beautiful even though they have the power of the gods.
The whole world of harm fell into a deep sleep, and the echo of the gods disappeared into this world.
It's definitely not that the gods have given up on them, it's that the mother is waiting for an apology from her child.
Just elect a new king, become the inheritor of the divine tree, reopen the power of the core of the sacred tree, and let the world once again be shrouded in eternal life and serenity.
Only then will everything return to the way it was, and the clansmen, family, and friends will all come back.
As long as she can go back, she is willing to give all her strength and put the next candidate on the throne, which is her mission and her destiny.
And Zhang Xu is the perfect heir to the king, he can definitely adapt to the power of the gods, can inherit everything and become an immortal god, and control all the kings who manage the world of the god tree.
Before the destruction of the gods, the mother of the Heavenly Demon Clan had left a message that the tree spirit would not be extinguished and would awaken again.
And the next king is the stranger who opens this world again.
The Black Tower was opened by Zhang Xu, and the eternal and unchanging star curtain of this world was also lit up again because of him, and the guide was named Xia Mianyang, who firmly believed that she would not be wrong.
"This is it"
Xia Mianyang greedily inhaled the breath on the altar, as if this moment had made her return to her hometown and see that glorious period.
"Lord Messenger, as long as you send its soul and sacrifice into the slender body here, right", Zhang Xu stepped forward and said respectfully, but the obscenity in his eyes looking at Xia Mianyang was still a little unable to hide.
He Ling is very beautiful, and she can be regarded as the best in the world, but she is tired of eating prawns, and this prawn has been bitten by others, how can a person like Zhang Xu still be interested.
Listen to the guide who said that as long as he can sit on the throne, everything in this world is his, including everything outside.
Because he will eventually become an immortal god, isn't it his that such a bewitching and holy and mysterious woman will be his at that time?
Seeing that eternal life was close at hand, and he couldn't escape from the palm of his hand, Zhang Xu also began to have other plans.
"Wait a minute, I need to prepare"
"Let your army cover all of this, and don't let anyone or anything come and disturb me," Xia Mianyang said, putting away the bamboo umbrella and slowly walking to the altar position.
Stretching out her fingers, she swiped across the altar, leaving trails of dust pushing away, and her fingers were stained with a little dust.
"Mother, I will raise you all"
"I did it, didn't I?"
"The world will eventually return to the way we love the most"
"Venerable Oracle, we will receive your blessing once again"
Zhang Xu pretended to salute respectfully, and when he saw Xia Mianyang walking away, a sneer appeared on his face, and he looked back at the nearly three thousand deceased people behind him and said loudly: "Guard!" β
Although the deceased have no soul and no sense of self, they are also quite powerful warriors in the Sacred Tree, and they are also the time of the fall of the dynasty because of the king's rebellion.
The last warrior who struggled, escorted away all his compatriots, as a wall of resistance to the wrath of the gods.
Everyone's strength is not weaker than that of S-level mutant warriors, and even more so, they have touched the threshold of Z-level warriors, plus there are a large number of them.
Not to mention that Shi Dangdang dared to come over and fight head-on, he would definitely be submerged, so his idea was correct.
The three people with invisibility talismans on their bodies, one tall and two short, slowly walked in from the ranks of the deceased under Shi Dangdang's opening path.
Because he couldn't make a sound, Shi Gandang also pasted a Qingfeng talisman that he had used with Hao Dongran before on everyone's feet.
Liang Gong gestured, Shi Dangdang nodded and looked at He Ling, who was sitting outside the altar, and Zhang Xu, who was commanding the deceased.
And the big rooster has been transferred from He Ling's hands to Xian Xian.
Xian Xian is now like a puppet, her eyes are blank, and she looks ahead in a daze, but her body has changed too much, and Shi Dangdang didn't recognize it for a while.
If it weren't for the small flower that Hao Dongran gave her on her head, Shi Gandang would have thought that there were other people in Zhang Xu's team.
Shi Dangdang looked at Brother Lu, who had been sealed by Xia Mianyang with a spell in Xian Xian's hand, and frowned.
Squatting down, he beckoned after stopping the two women, and whispered in their ears: "Two girls, can one of you help me make a little noise at a distance of 100 meters from the periphery?" β
"When you're done, we'll meet under the big tree that came over."
Liang Gong was the first to raise his hand, "I'll go!" β
After that, Shi Dangdang nodded, and said, "Girl Lianggong pay attention to safety"
Fortunately, at this moment, Slender has no self-consciousness and has become a perfect container, otherwise there is absolutely no good way to get out of here.
The Lianggong over there exploded with an open flame, which instantly made Zhang Xu notice.
"Is it really naΓ―ve to think that everyone is a fool? Such a simple trick to lure the enemy, I think only Hao Dongran, an idiot, can think of it", Zhang Xu sneered and ignored it at all.
Only He Ling glanced over there, retracted her gaze, and didn't know what she was thinking.
Here, Shi Dangdang took advantage of the firelight to appear, and when he arrived in front of Xian Xian's body, he pinched out a spell in his hand and pasted it on Xian Xian's back, and then transferred Brother Lu into his hands with the technique of space, and was about to leave after doing these things.
I saw Hoshino take something out of his pocket, and before he could ask, he saw Hoshino make a silent motion.
frowned, it was not advisable to stay here for a long time, and the two quickly returned the same way.
After waiting for a while, Zhang Xu, who was beaming with pride, noticed that the movement in the distance had disappeared, and couldn't help but sneer: "This is Hao Dongran's brain, it's ridiculous."
"With such an army, I guess I feel chilled when I look at it outside."
"Originally, I still had a little opinion of you, but now Hao Dongran, you are also very ordinary."
"I see..."
Zhang Xu said as he spoke, glanced at the position in Xian Xian's hand and was suddenly stunned, blinked in disbelief and hurriedly said, "What about the chicken!" β
He Ling was also stunned, and looked at the slender position behind her, but found that the big was gone...
Instead, an unknown object is being held by Fiber.
She stepped forward, picked up this thing curiously, couldn't help but look weird, and muttered, "It's really... Childish is dead"
Behind him, Zhang Xu strode forward, snatched the items from He Ling's hand, and saw a muddy chicken with his eyes... It's only half an inch in size.
Don't even think about it, it must be Hao Dongran, a boring idiot!
But Xia Mianyang is still preparing to change his soul, how does this make Zhang Xu explain! Thinking of this, Zhang Xu hurriedly turned back.
In the distance, Shi Dangdang opened his mouth and was puzzled: "Hoshino girl, why... It's going to take out such a filthy thing! β
"Hao Dongran pinched, he said that Zhang Xu is so big, he can let him know a little bit about himself", Hoshino shrugged.
