438 Ancient Rituals 1
When Ling Xi interrogated the soul of the water monster here, Qing'er had been communicating with the kitten for a while, and a human and a group of cats meowed, their voices high and low, thick and sharp, like a meow song. Everyone who listened to it was very pleasant. Although I don't know what these high and low meows mean.
"Qing'er, don't meow all the time, and translate it for us. ”
"Okay, the kitten said that the ancient rituals of the humans here are about to start in the next few days... It is also said that the number of their ancestors is very small, and there are only so many now, and it is also said that the small animals on this continent have also been mutated by the souls of water monsters, and some humans are too, but they are all sick and can't get up, so this place has not yet reached the point where humans hurt humans..."
Qing'er explained to everyone while communicating with the kitten, which made everyone very envious, how good it would be if they could communicate with other creatures.
After sending away a group of kittens, Ling Xi and everyone continued to rush towards the place where the humans of the Black Belt Continent gathered. This walk is a small half a day, and it is stopped by a virtual and real barrier, this barrier is not an enchantment, it exudes a faint fishy smell, a barrier composed of black and dark red colors, and it radiates a greasy luster in the dim sunlight. Ling Xi opened the Heavenly Eye to look over, and everyone also came closer to look at it carefully.
"Xi'er, it looks and smells like the corpses of all kinds of creatures are piled up. It can't be the corpse of a human on this continent, right?"
"You're right, these are human corpses and other things. Ling Xi looked at it for a while and said.
"Oh my God, how many people will die here, no wonder there are few people on this continent, and the sacrifice of many people is exchanged for the survival of a few. This is not the same as the experience on the Red Eagle Continent*. ”
"There is a situation in a small continent, where the creatures in the ocean are occupied by water monsters, and those who are not occupied have gone to the deep sea, and the warriors selected by the ceremony have gone to the sea, isn't this a kind of experience. Miss, how are we going to get there?"
"We used to be okay, but we still had to seal this place off so that the spirits of the water monsters could not enter. Ling Xi looked at everyone and said.
"Isn't this easy, let's just lay an enchantment. ”
"Where is it so easy, lotus leaves and flowers are like a dream, this enchantment is still done by a few of you sisters. Pure enchantments can't merge with here, and we can't use human bodies, so let's find something else instead. ”
"Sister Ling, it will take time to verify, let's go first, you all use spells to plug the gap, we have the same experiment, find the best alternative, but we can't let the souls of those water monsters mix in." To open the gap, we will have to rely on Sister Ling. ”
"Take a few steps back. Look at this fairy. Ling Xi said as he silently recited the incantation, waving his hands and striking at this barrier...
There are only a few places where humans gather on the Black Belt Continent, and now almost all of them come to participate in the ancient rituals. In the dimly lit large square, there are many people gathered, and from a distance, it seems to blend in with the dark space. On a high platform, more than a dozen elder-level people were chanting ancient mantras. Rays of light came out of the human sky, gradually rising into the dim sky. The high platform gradually brightened, and after a long time, the light on the high platform was already very bright, and it was clear that the human appearance of the dozen or so elder-level human beings was all old.
"Alas, we are too old, and this time it took another hour longer than the last, and the request has not yet reached heaven. We're not pure barriers, and the water monster's souls are getting in even more. Not only have many small animals fallen sick, but even humans have fallen twice as sick as before. An elder said.
"Yes, I keep my body in bed every year except for this day, and I still can't stop getting old, and I have forgotten a few words of the ancient spell, alas, no wonder I can't listen to it. An older elder said.
"It's just that our successors are not yet sober. He has been born for more than 20 years, why has he been sleeping like this, how long can we, a dozen old immortals, last. ”
"Do you still have the strength to repeat the incantation? If not, bring people up, and we must also reserve our strength to surpass their souls, strive for the perfect recombination of spirit and body, and achieve the ability to shield the souls of water monsters. ”
"Alas, it's not as good as a year. These human sacrifices are becoming less and less worthwhile. A few elders said helplessly, and made way of the way, and many people carried the unconscious human beings slowly onto the high platform. With a solemn expression, he bowed deeply to the unconscious human and walked off the high platform.
Immediately afterwards, more than a dozen elders surrounded these unconscious humans, and each of them once again silently recited the ancient incantation. At this time, more than two dozen people rushed to the high platform, and the ancient ritual was forced to be interrupted.
"Whoever dares to interrupt the most sacred ritual on this continent and therefore recruit more water monster spirits, you are the sinners of the Black Belt Continent. An elder said breathlessly.
"Old-timers, your rituals are sacred, and the willing sacrifices of humanity here are great, and it should be over. Ling Xi stood on the high platform and said loudly as he looked at the people who blended into the turbid space.
"Nonsense, there are only so many humans on our Black Belt Continent, and we don't know how long we can hold out before we can usher in nine days of mercy and deliverance. If you interrupt our ritual for no reason, there is no point in our perseverance. The people in the audience said angrily.
"Don't be angry. Although I am not an immortal from the Nine Heavens, I have also come to save you. The Black Belt Continent has been dark for long enough, and the bright days are not far off. As soon as Ling Xi said and waved his hand, the sky on the high platform brightened, and the cold light scattered below, and the people in the haze cheered.
"It's so bright, this is the light passed down by the ancestors!"
"Like, how did she do it?"
"She must be a fairy, right?"
"There's hope. But the man wasn't awake yet. ”
"When will that person be sober?" the people below the high platform were arguing.
"Who is that person, and why is she asleep?" asked the spirit man, looking at the crowd.
"It doesn't hurt to tell you, that person is the hope of our Black Belt Continent, he came with light when he was born, but he has always been living in a sleeping state, he should eat, sleep, sleep and grow up. A man standing in the dark said.
"What a strange person, haven't you woken him up after so many years?" the prince also said.
"Never stopped calling, never woke up. It is also said that only his wife can wake him up. But in the vast sea of people, where are we going to find her wife? ”
"Maybe we can try. As the spirit man spoke, he went up to the high platform, and without saying anything, he took Ling Xi's hand and ran off the high platform.
"Two husbands, what do you mean by this?" Ling Xi asked puzzled.
"Xi'er, your third husband is waiting for you. Lingren said anxiously.
