Chapter 1: The Wizard Who Smashes the Dust
"Boom!"
The heavy and desolate sound of drums echoes in the vast mountains;
On the mountainside, the majestic ancient temple has the blue sky above its head, covering the rising day, which looks more solemn and solemn in the bleak autumn wind;
"Rumble ......"
The heavy gate of the ancient temple slowly opened in a faint cloud of smoke, and I saw a huge statue of floating Buddha standing in the vast temple in front of countless mortals and monks outside the door;
Vicissitudes, solemn, solemn, but revealing an almost eerie mystery;
Behind the statue of Futu is a staircase as long as the sky, the end of which is high into the clouds and mist on the top of the mountain;
And on the top of the hazy mountain, an ancient altar can be clearly seen, and from a distance, it is as dazzling and sacred as the Buddha crown of the floating statue!
That is the glory of the land of Xichuan -
Ancient Altar!
"Knock! knock!"
The desolate drumming continued, and as the heavy door burst open, the expressions of the people present, whether ordinary men or monks, were faintly excited, uneasy, and even, indescribable;
"The door is open, the altar is open!"
The old man in white who served as the master of ceremonies stood solemnly, his silver hair fluttering, and his vigorous cultivation spread a small voice all over the thousands of miles of wild mountains;
Xichuan Mansion's once-in-a-century bloodline awakening ceremony officially began;
The Ancient Altar and the Awakening Ceremony are only open for the geniuses of the world!
"The auspicious time has arrived! Enter the heavenly steps! Ascend the altar!"
"The first person to ascend the altar!, the son of Baihe Town, Qingping County, Xichuan Prefecture——"
"Leng Yi!"
Before the words fell, there was a faint commotion in the originally silent crowd, and countless eyes instantly converged on the old man and the young who stood at the head of the crowd;
Eyebrows raised, energetic, uncertain...... The eyes were different, but none dared to make a loud noise;
"Child, don't care, follow the old man;"
It seemed to be aware of the gazes behind him, the elegant old man in a brocade robe and a high crown, kindly comforting the young man beside him;
"Yes!
The young man with a delicate and immature face replied, there was no trace of nervousness in his translucent eyes, but there was firmness and calmness beyond his age;
The elegant old man smiled with satisfaction, and then regained his solemn face and took the lead towards the open door with his head held high;
As the old man took a step, the strong aura instantly dispersed, and the powerful Yuan Force fluctuations were like mountains under heavy pressure, and the turbulent square instantly returned to silence;
Gathering Spirit!
Looking at the old man's mountain-like back, Leng Yi couldn't help but feel a shock in his heart;
The leader of Xichuan is Cheng's!
And the head of the Cheng family is the elegant but powerful old man in front of him - Cheng Guiyun!
Sooner or later......
Leng Yi took a deep breath, then looked back at his inconspicuous father in the crowd behind him;
Good boy!
In the different eyes of the monks around him, Leng Zhengyuan forcibly handed his son an encouraging look calmly;
Leng Yi nodded firmly, then straightened up his small chest and followed Cheng Guiyun's steps and strode towards the open gate and the staircase to the sky!
With Leng Yi moving forward, followed by Xichuan Mansion Yin, and more than 100 powerful people in Xichuan and the surrounding counties, and at the end were dozens of teenagers and girls who awakened in the same batch as foils;
In such an order, no one was dissatisfied, and everyone knew who the protagonist of this ceremony was......
When the powerful people stepped into the gate one after another, the well-known monks from all walks of life who came to watch the ceremony slowly moved forward under the guidance of the ceremonial officer, and there was a faint commotion in the crowd again;
"Just that twelve-year-old kid, the wizard who claims to be the most likely to awaken the higher bloodline?"
"Of course! Our Xichuan Leng Yi has been extremely talented since he was a child, both civil and military, and when he was nine years old, he was personally received by the imperial court's envoy!
"Hmph! The golden phoenix was actually born in a chicken coop, what does the high-level bloodline family in Xichuan eat?"
"Be quiet! After the ceremony, that kid wants to worship Cheng Guiyun as the 'second father'!"
......
"Bang dang!"
The heavy gate slammed shut, and the whispers vanished, and the countless mortals and ordinary monks who had been cut off from the gate suddenly erupted in cheers!
"God forbid! I, Nishikawa, have finally come out of it!"
With the blessing of Leng Gongzi, I, Xichuan, will overpower you sooner or later!"
......
The bleak autumn wind swept through the boiling crowd and blew the long hair of the young man;
Looking at the withered yellow on both sides of the steps and the vast barren mountains in the distance, Leng Yi's mood couldn't help but feel a little more stunned;
Although Xichuan Mansion has a vast area, it is the most barren place of heaven and earth vitality in the Daqi Dynasty, no matter what era, whether it is a mortal or a monk, there is always only one impression in the eyes of outsiders-
Poor mountains and bad waters come out of the people!
Someday......
Leng Yi clenched his small fists hard, and a resolute gaze slowly flowed through his delicate eyes;
"Knock! knock!"
The sound of drums was still there, and when the ancient temple was gradually hidden under the clouds, Leng Yi calmly climbed the last step and looked up at the legendary ancient altar;
The ancient stone carvings, the vicissitudes of life, and the mysterious array make this altar full of scars of time like its origin, mysterious and almost weird......
However, it is this strange altar that not only has the power of awakening that shocks the eternals, but can even induce the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi to thoroughly cleanse the bloodline of the awakened, making its bloodline more pure and rich;
However, after all, the altar has been eroded by the years, and in order to protect this unrepeatable miracle, the ancestors of the Xichuan cultivation world have issued a decree:
The ancient altar is not opened if it is not a genius of the world!
Therefore, in the past thousand years, the "Bloodline Awakening Ceremony" has only been held more than a dozen times;
And today!
Looking at the ancient altar full of legends, Leng Yi couldn't help but feel a little more excited and expectant while feeling so small;
"Woo——!"
The drums were silent, and the melodious trumpets sounded, and as the crowd gathered, the whole mountain top was dyed as if it were a holy realm;
"Boy Baihe Lengyi, see Lord Cheng! I have seen Lord Fu Yin! I have seen all my lords!"
In front of a stone platform on the side of the altar, Leng Yi knelt on the ground and bowed to several powerful figures sitting on it one by one;
"Leng Yi is exempt from courtesy! Tonight, the old man will set a wine for you in Cheng's Mansion to celebrate!" Cheng Guiyun got up and took a step forward, and said sternly and lovingly;
"Master Xie Cheng!" Leng Yi bowed again gratefully, in the past ten years, the Leng family has not been cared for by Cheng Guiyun, although he knows that it is an investment......
"The first Awakened One!"
In the chanting of the ceremonial officials, Leng Yi slowly climbed to the majestic altar and climbed to the top of Xichuan in hundreds of eyes with different expressions!
The vast sky, the boundless earth, the young man's long hair is flying in the wind!
When a wisp of green silk swept through his eyes like a torch, Leng Yi took a deep look at the desolate land of Xichuan, and then suddenly turned around and strode into the center of the altar;
"Buzz ——!"
As Leng Yi stepped in, the ancient altar began to operate, and a pair of mystical arrays bloomed with dazzling brilliance one after another, and then joined together, merging into a huge golden pattern at Leng Yi's feet!
Immediately afterwards, the golden pattern slowly rotated, and an ancient and vicissitudes of vitality slowly dispersed, and the ensuing pressure of the mountain made everyone breathe rapidly, and the huge mountain top was silent for a while......
"Boom!"
A roar suddenly exploded, and in the shocked eyes of everyone, the peaceful and scattered vitality rushed out in an instant, converging into a dazzling pillar of light and soaring straight into the sky, a vast aura that seemed to come from ancient times, sweeping in all directions like a mountain and a sea!
Where the powerful aura swept through, the thousands of miles of clear sky turned into an endless starry sky as if it had been swallowed up, and the thousands of miles of wild mountains were shrouded in a little starlight, and only a trace of blue clear sky remained on the distant horizon;
The heavens are a vision!
At this moment, countless residents of the big city and town within a radius of thousands of miles stopped and knelt down like a sea tide towards the distant mountain top and the pillar of light that soared to the sky......
And in the heart of the pillar of light, the young man clearly felt a divine aura descending from the sky, as if the light of the sun and the moon slowly enveloped it, and a scorching but peaceful power instantly filled his body!
Feeling the baptism of the essence of heaven and earth, the young man closed his eyes and slowly opened his arms, bathed in the divine light, and an unprecedented sense of tranquility and ethereal spirit permeated his heart......
Looking at the vague but hidden peerless figure in the pillar of light, everyone on the top of the mountain seemed to see a peerless powerhouse standing majestically, moving mountains and reclaiming the sea with a wave of his hand, and picking up stars month by month-
"Smack......
Suddenly, a soft sound sounded like thunder in everyone's minds!
At the same time, Leng Yi, who was immersed in boundless tranquility, suddenly opened his eyes, and a trace of disbelief and shock flashed through his calm eyes-
I saw that the dazzling pillar of light suddenly collapsed into thousands of brilliance, and the golden light shone in the magic circle dimmed in an instant, and the mighty aura instantly disappeared, and the world-beating powerhouse in the trance also disappeared!
The endless starry sky slowly faded, leaving behind not the rising day, but the vast gray and yellow sky;
A qiē is like a dream of Nanke!
The shocked crowd was still in a trance, but only Leng Yi looked at the awakened stone tablet next to the altar for the first time-
Not ——!
Looking at the dazzling big characters on the stone stele, the young man's face instantly became pale as paper, and he only heard the sound of "stabbing", and the fine brocade clothes were scratched and torn......
What's going on?
The people who had just woken up from a dream sensitively discovered the abnormality of the young man, and for a while, countless suspicious eyes converged;
"Bloodline potential—"
The old man in white who reacted solemnly spoke, but he didn't use his cultivation to spread the sound in all directions, and everyone present seemed to realize something and held their breath......
"Superior!"
"Huh......" Everyone breathed a long sigh of relief, and they couldn't help complaining in their hearts about what this old man was doing;
"Bloodline Grade ......"
The old man's voice was more solemn;
"None...... No grade;"
What——?!
At this moment, many people's eyes widened, their heartstrings that had just been relaxed tightened again, and their minds were in chaos;
"Bloodline Attribute...... No attributes;"
"Composite results ......"
"It's hard to cultivate!"
It's hard to cultivate!
These four words exploded in everyone's ears like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, and for a while, the entire mountain top became as dead and silent as a thousand-year-old tomb!
"Hoo ......"
The icy mountain breeze blew through the quiet altar, bringing up a few yellowish leaves......
"Shh——!!!h
The dead silence of the crowd suddenly erupted in shrill boos and poured in all directions like a tidal wave, and the young man, who had always been calm and composed, collapsed to the ground, and his delicate little face became as white as paper!
"Get out!"
At this moment, a roar was deafening, and Leng Yi watched in a daze as a heavy table of eight immortals flew through the crowd with a piercing whistling sound, slammed around him and turned into dust!
The young man shuddered suddenly, but saw Cheng Guiyun standing on the stone platform, amid the gloating laughter of a group of strong people!
Looking at the murderous eyes, Leng Yi staggered down the altar, the child's instinct told him that there was his father in the crowd, and there was an embrace that could shield him......
However, there is only one path that comes into view like a plague god;
The disappointed eyes of Brother Nishikawa, the disdainful expressions of the monks from other places, and the deep sighs of the two cold elders......
and the suppressed whimper between my father's waist and old fingers at that moment!
No one said anything;
Silent at this time, but far more than sound!
The boy's heart was slowly dripping blood......
Leng Yi trembled and opened his pale lips, and finally didn't say anything, but lowered his head and walked slowly towards the road like Huangquan Road!
"Hey, hey, it's hard to cultivate, let's just say, this Xichuan poor mountain and bad water ......"
"How can there be such a superb bloodline in this world......?"
"Lao Tzu is here to witness a miracle!
In the raindrops of eyes and ridicule, the short passage seems to never end, and the crowds on both sides do their best to show the ugliness of human nature as if they were condemned to the streets......
The scorching sun shone unscrupulously on the young man's figure, the young man lowered his head, bit his lip and endured the sourness in his eyes, allowing the blood at the corner of his mouth to stain the white brocade robe......
