290, the young patriarch
Earth Ritual Chapter 03
In the end, it didn't go as Canghaisu wished, and the Soul Worship Contest was set for three, and the rest of their lives brought a blockbuster news: if they could win, they could make an exception and allow Xingliuyun and An Meng to enter the path of returning to the soul, or they could solve the mystery in Xingliuyun's heart.
Yu Sheng did not point out the mystery explicitly, but this move made Xing Liuyun believe more in what An Meng said before: every move here is in their calculations.
Xingliuyun originally came here with the purpose of solving doubts, but now that people have put the opportunity in front of their eyes, how can there be any reason to let it go?
Unable to participate in the Immortal Worship Competition, Canghaisu was not discouraged, he only had the cultivation in the middle of the Lingshuang Realm, which was far from the Peak Determination Realm, and he was afraid that he would not be able to withstand even a single move.
In contrast, watching from below may have made him more rewarding.
The hardships of those few days on the front shore of the Netherworld were not in vain, Canghai Su successfully advanced a small step and reached the middle stage of the Lingshuang Realm, but he knew that compared to others, he was still far behind.
There was a reason to win, Xingliuyun collected his heart, and took advantage of the past two days to summarize the feelings of this time, and at the same time, the run-in with the demigod weapon that had just arrived was also put on the agenda.
Although Canghaisu was unable to participate in the Immortal Ritual Competition, he always paid attention to this matter, and he tried his best to find out the news, hoping to give them a little help.
However, although most of the people here are dressed as farmers and look honest and honest, they are all very shrewd, and Canghaisu has spent a lot of effort, and only inquired about the news that there are seven candidates this time, but there is no information about their strength and spells that they are good at.
After tossing and turning for two days, he finally went back with a wilt.
"Rest assured, no matter who it is, this girl punches one at a time. Phantom Qingyin said comfortingly.
On the side, looking at Phantom Qingyin's heroic energy, Xing Liuyun couldn't help but say: "You have taught Qingyin for so long, and she doesn't seem to have changed much." ”
"Don't you know you're a girl? An Meng replied.
Xingliuyun was stunned and said, "Makes sense." ”
The shrine is here in the blink of an eye.
The black altar is simple and atmospheric, surrounded by lush trees and shining green.
There are many people gathered here, densely packed with a large area, regardless of men, women and children, all enjoy themselves, joy at the same time, there is also an indescribable solemnity.
The vocal music gradually rises, like a gentle wind and drizzle, moistening the earth, which is extremely mysterious, immersed in it, there is an inexplicable feeling.
Eighty-one women danced in unison, all of them with fairy muscles and jade bones, flowing with a layer of crystal brilliance, graceful posture, like a shock, exotic, and sinking.
"The one in the middle is your patriarch?" Xingliuyun was surprised.
In the distance, on the quaint altar, there are seven people praying devoutly, and faintly, there seems to be a burst of avenue scriptures.
"Exactly. Yu Hua replied.
For the rest of his life, he had to participate in the important part of the underworld ritual with several other people, and he couldn't get out of his body, so he was received by another young talent in the underworld, that is, Yu Hua on his side.
"I didn't expect your patriarch to be so young. ”
From the position of Xingliuyun, you can't see the whole picture on the tall altar, and you can't get a glimpse of the true faces of the seven people, but you can see from their backs alone, contrary to the white hair of the six people around them, the person in the middle has black hair and looks like he is in the prime of life.
Worship a Jiazi once, and soon after each event, the new patriarch will take office, and then count the years before taking office, this person is afraid that he is already eighty or ninety years old, and he can still have dense thick hair at this age, which is really envious of others.
Although the longevity of the peak cultivator has increased, the traces left on his face by the years cannot be easily erased, and it takes a lot of effort.
Xing Liuyun couldn't help but be a little curious, didn't he say that the patriarchs of the past dynasties had suffered a great loss of longevity because of the innate divination technique?
At this time, Yu Hua's face was strange, and he said: "The patriarch looks at it, it is indeed much younger. "It seems to mean something.
Sacrificial wine, dance and music...... After a long time, the vocal music subsided, the sacrificial dancers slowly withdrew, and after a series of complicated rituals, the prayer was completed, and the always casual Yin and Netherworld people were very solemn and serious in this process.
The seven great men on the altar turned and turned towards the peoples.
Seeing the figure clearly, Xingliuyun was shocked, where is this eighty or ninety years old, obviously a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy, "Your patriarch seems to be a little too young?"
Yu Sheng smiled in return, "Just get used to it." ”
The man's face was white, his black hair was thick, his body was strong, and he was full of vitality, only the pair of bright eyes seemed to have flashed vicissitudes, and there was a momentum far beyond ordinary people around his body, which made people unconsciously give birth to admiration, which can only be cultivated by people who have been in the top position for a long time.
It's hard to imagine that the head of a clan would look like this.
"When breaking through the Zhenhua Realm, it can greatly cleanse the turbidity, like a new life, making people rejuvenate, the peak of the Peak Determination Realm is unique, and he has the ability to almost stay in the face, the Yin Netherworld Patriarch looks like this, isn't it that he has reached such a terrifying realm when he is sixteen or seven years old?"
This is really too sensational, among the people Xingliuyun knows, only Mingya Yuehui has such a terrifying talent, could it be that this patriarch will be the second person?
Xingliuyun shook his head, in contrast, he still preferred to believe that it was because of some external force.
A demon-level talent like Mingya Yuehui is rare in the world.
After the prayer, one of the seven above uttered some more words, and then the long-awaited "blessing" ceremony began.
This year's blessing ceremony was attended by distinguished guests from afar, and it has long been known that they live in seclusion, but it does not mean that they do not like to be lively, and they are full of expectations for such a once-in-a-century grand occasion.
Candidates will go to the path of returning to the soul, and the prayer is intended to gather the will of the people to send blessings to them, and the way outsiders convey their prayers is through martial arts, which has been a tradition since ancient times.
The diameter of the prayer ring is nearly 300 meters, covering a huge area, and the wide range allows both sides to let go of their hands and feet to the greatest extent.
The people of the Netherworld surrounded them, densely packed, all smiling, looking forward to the next big battle.
The candidates who will participate in the competition are ready, and on the other side of the ring, they can be seen.
Xing Liuyun asked in a low voice, "Are these people too young?"
There were two men and one woman, looking no more than twenty years old, and Xing Liuyun even doubted that they were all qualified to participate in the Blue Festival that had just passed, and they would not exceed the age of twenty-three.
Although it is said to be a competition with the younger generation, Xingliuyun didn't expect it to be so young.
An Meng replied: "Young people are full of energy, and Shouyuan is more abundant." "It's a matter of course.
Xing Liuyun couldn't help grinning, "Is the emotion looking for a substitute for the dead ghost?"
He seemed to understand a little bit as to why the Netherworld Patriarch looked like he was only sixteen or seventeen years old.
The old man who acted as a referee with white hair like snow, stood on the prayer platform like mutton fat jade, and loudly announced: "On the prayer platform, there is no blood, and friendship will be exchanged, and the point will stop." ”
His voice was loud and his secret method was echoed in everyone's ears.
"Now we invite the members of both sides to play. ”
"Look at me getting off to a good start. ”
Xingliuyun is full of confidence, although the opponent's strength is unfathomable, but he has improved a lot in recent days, and he has been electrocuted by the thunderous thunder for several days, and he has the urge to show his strength.
An Meng gently advised: "Don't get hurt. ”
Phantom Qingyin seemed very excited, completely ignoring the fact that there were all the people of the Netherworld, and shouted, "Kill them!"
Canghai Su's agitation frightened him quickly blocked Phantom Qingyin's mouth with pastries to prevent her from saying anything more and causing the anger of the public.
Yu Hua was beside him, shaking his head helplessly.
The order of the game has long been determined, Xingliuyun plays the first game, the phantom Qingyin ends, and An Meng is in the center.
They want to win this game, at least two wins of three games.
Among the three, An Meng's cultivation is the lowest, although the realm of Phantom Qingyin is unknown, Xing Liuyun clearly knows that her strength is definitely not inferior to herself, and even vaguely above herself, it is safer to put her at the end to ensure the bottom.
Of course, An Meng is in the middle, and there is no lack of caution in Xingliuyun, and he doesn't want to put too much pressure on An Meng.
As for putting the pressure on Phantom Qingyin...... Seeing her puffing out her cheeks and not forgetting to raise her arms and shout, Xingliuyun suddenly felt no guilt at all, this girl had no heart and lungs, and she didn't know what nervousness was.
