Chapter 975: Ancestor Worship

In the two muffled sounds, three huge forces intersected in mid-air, causing two powerful shock waves to vibrate in all directions, and the nearby void was also shattered. The aftermath of the shock wave swept onto the stone platform, which immediately collapsed a large area.

And the huge bodies of these two priests were directly shocked by the huge force, and fell far under the stone platform, although they were not unconscious, but their bodies were entangled by the black dragon, and the huge force was not eliminated, and they couldn't get up for a long time.

It wasn't until the black dragon collapsed into wisps of demonic qi and disappeared that the two of them struggled to stand up, but fortunately, the dragon spirit clan monk was physically strong, and the two of them were fine.

There was a burst of cheers from the audience, and Li Muran became the high priest in accordance with his name.

Next came the complicated and grand celebrations and ancestor worship ceremonies, and Li Muran also put on the golden armor that symbolized his high status to complete these ceremonial activities.

This ceremony lasted for a few days, and during this time, Li Muran also got the news of the Thousand Illusion Fairy, and she also became the high priest of the Extreme Flame Demon Clan.

In the final stage of the ancestor worship ceremony, even the old patriarch who had rarely come forward and who had cultivated in the later stage of the demon body appeared in front of the clansmen and personally presided over the next ceremony.

After the solemn and solemn ceremony, the old patriarch met with the high priest Li Muran alone.

The old patriarch took out a box of blood-colored pills and said, "This is the dragon blood pill that the cultivators of this clan have refined over the years, please accept it." ”

Li Muran was surprised and delighted, he knew very well the origin of the Dragon Blood Pill, this was based on some treasures unique to the Dragon Spirit Clan, and countless Dragon Spirit Clan monks spent many years of hard work to use their own demon dragon blood as the ultimate treasure to refine. After taking the Dragon Blood Pill, the Demon Dragon's bloodline will be greatly enhanced!

It can be said that any monk of the Dragon Spirit Clan will greatly increase his strength if he takes this treasure!

"Such a heavy treasure, the younger generation doesn't dare to enjoy it exclusively!" Li Muran said in disbelief. He just became a high priest, and he didn't make any credit for the Dragon Spirit Clan, and the so-called merit was not rewarded, and suddenly he got such a heavy treasure, he couldn't help but be secretly surprised in his heart.

The old patriarch smiled and said, "According to the rules of this clan, only the high priest is qualified to take these dragon blood pills! Even the old man doesn't dare to enjoy them! You can take them!"

"Take it now?" Li Muran was stunned.

"This is the great tonic pill of your own clan, it has all kinds of benefits and no harm, your body is strong enough, enough to refine the demon dragon bloodline contained in these dragon blood pills, of course, you can take it at any time!" The old patriarch smiled and said, "Are you afraid that they are poisonous? Why does the old man want to harm the high priest who was selected by his clan with great difficulty for no reason!"

Li Muran nodded slightly, he carefully inspected this dragon blood pill, each one was carefully examined, and there was indeed nothing strange about it. This dragon blood pill is very pure, it is refined by the blood of the demon dragon, there are no other impurities, it is non-toxic, and there are no hidden mysteries such as divine thought prohibition.

He hesitated slightly, and then took all these dragon blood pills. Li Muran immediately felt a wave of warmth pouring into his blood, indescribably comfortable, as long as he was refined over time, his demon dragon bloodline and alchemy skills would increase greatly.

The old patriarch said with satisfaction: "Very good, you can rest here for half a day, after nightfall, the old man will personally take you to the ancestral hall located in the forbidden land to worship the ancestors, and then your duties as a high priest will be completed." In the future, whether you stay in the clan to cultivate, or go to the outside world to explore, it's up to you! You have such a powerful demon dragon bloodline, you should be able to break out of the world in the demon world!"

"Thank you!" Li Muran said gratefully: "The younger generation has received the grace of the cultivation of the Longluo clan, and he will definitely try to repay it in the future." ”

The old patriarch nodded slightly: "There is no need to reciprocate, just don't hold a grudge against the clansmen!"

Li Muran stayed in the old patriarch's hall, surrounded by many guards. After nightfall, the old patriarch really appeared again.

"The matter of the Forbidden Land Ancestral Hall is very secretive, and only the most core monks of the clan can know about it. So there's no need to tell anyone else, etc.," said the old patriarch.

So, the old patriarch took Li Muran and directly teleported out of the main hall from another secret passage, and quietly flew to the forbidden place located in the east of Yanlong Island-Longzu Tomb Valley.

In front of the forbidden land, the old patriarch stopped.

"The other two clans will also send high priests to worship their ancestors in the ancestral hall, and if they have a good chance, they can also get a special ancestral inheritance. The old patriarch said.

The two of them didn't wait too long, and after a stick of incense, the great patriarchs of the Soul Eater Clan and the Extreme Flame Clan also came here with the high priests of their respective clans.

Li Muran smiled slightly, the high priest of the Extreme Yan Clan was none other than the Thousand Illusion Fairy.

"Hehe, Brother Long came so early!" said the Great Patriarch of the Extreme Yan Clan.

"The matter of ancestor worship is very important, in order to show sincerity, naturally I dare not be late!" said the old patriarch of the Longluo clan lightly.

The Great Patriarch of the Extreme Yan Clan said very proudly: "This time, the High Priest sent by this clan has actually cultivated all the thirteen kinds of demonic flames of his clan to perfection, which can be called a genius that has not been encountered in a thousand years! This time the ancestor should be able to feel the sincerity of his clan!"

"Really?" the old patriarch of the Dragon Spirit Clan said with a slight surprise: "However, the high priest of this clan is also extraordinary, his alchemy cultivation has reached the fifth layer, which is also rare!"

The Great Patriarch of the Soul Devouring Clan frowned when he heard this, and said with a bitter face: "Alas, I didn't expect that there would be a genius junior in the two Daoyou clans. It's a pity that this group of priests of this clan is of average talent, and the high priests of this clan are also unsatisfactory. I don't know if the ancestors will blame us for not being sincere enough!"

Li Muran was surprised and surprised when he heard this, the ancestor worship ceremony is just a symbolic meaning, the so-called ancestors have already fallen, and they don't know how these juniors are, the so-called sincerity is only the minds of the juniors themselves, why do these heads of the clan care so much?

Could it be that the higher the sincerity and the more solemn the ancestor worship ceremony, the "ancestors" can really bless their people with eternal prosperity?

Li Muran shook his head, he is a cultivator, and he knows that everything needs to be fought for by his own efforts, and the so-called "ancestor blessing" is completely nonsense!

"Alright, the auspicious time is coming, I'll wait until I enter the forbidden land!" said the old patriarch of the Dragon Spirit Clan.

The three patriarchs, each taking out a magic disk, stimulated at the same time.

In a moment, three demonic lights rose up into the sky, converging somewhere in the forbidden place outside the forbidden land, and gradually formed a demonic light curtain of a certain size.

"It's a teleportation light curtain!" Li Muran's heart moved, this teleportation light curtain is quite simple, and it should only be able to teleport to a relatively close distance.

The old patriarch of the Longluo clan explained to Li Muran: "When you enter the light curtain, you will see the ancestral hall. After entering the ancestral hall, you must respectfully observe the salute, and after worshipping, you can complete the task! Only the high priest is qualified to enter the ancestral hall to worship the ancestors, and the old man can only send you here!"

The other patriarchs of the other tribes gave similar instructions to the high priests of their respective tribes.

Li Muran and the Thousand Illusion Fairy made eye contact with each other, and then entered the light curtain one after another.

Li Muran only felt that the magic light flashed in front of him, and then he appeared in an inconspicuous valley filled with miasma.

Immediately, the demonic fire beside him flashed, and the Thousand Illusion Fairy also appeared here. Immediately afterward, the High Priest of the Soul Eater also arrived.

"It's a bit weird, but let's not make more trouble, and don't deal with this Soul Eater High Priest!" said the Thousand Illusion Fairy to Li Muran.

Li Muran was about to directly seal the high priest of the Soul Devouring Clan, but when he heard the Thousand Illusion Fairy say this, he didn't make a move.

The three of them looked around vigilantly, and saw a dilapidated hall faintly in the valley, hidden in the miasma mist.

"Is that the Ancestral Palace?" the three of them flew towards the main hall curiously, and when they got closer, they really confirmed this point - because the plaque of the ruined palace had the word "Ancestral Palace" written on it.

Although this ancestral hall is in disrepair, it is also quite magnificent. The three of them respectfully entered the ancestral hall and saw that the main hall was empty, and there was almost nothing.

There were only three futons woven by the Demon Star Grass on the ground, and on the wall facing the temple gate, there was a black dragon seven or eight feet long carved in relief.

This black dragon is covered in fine black dragon scales, spitting black flame demonic fire from its mouth, soaring through the clouds and mist, lifelike.

"This is the image of the ancestors?" Li Muran's heart moved, the three major demon clans of Yanlong Island, although their magical powers are completely different, they all worship the black dragon as their ancestor. And the black dragon relief on the stone wall is the image of the ancestors.

The three of them each took a futon, and then bowed respectfully to the black dragon, saying some common eulogies for ancestors. After all, they have all experienced the grand ancestral worship hall, and they can be regarded as decent at this time.

After three bows and nine bows, the ceremony was completed, and after the three of them looked at each other, they turned around and intended to exit the main hall.

"It's that simple?" Li Muran became more and more curious in his heart, this kind of ancestor worship ritual is just a formality, why should it be so mysterious and so cautious. Why is it that even the great patriarchs of all tribes attach great importance to it, and must be done by a high priest with a special status?

"It's so weird!" Li Muran said to the Thousand Illusion Fairy. He always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't see anything mysterious.

The Thousand Illusion Fairy said, "I also think it's a little strange! However, this may be the customs and traditions of these three demon clans. Some customs and traditions are just rules that have been handed down, and the younger generations strictly follow them, but they do not understand the deep meaning. ”

Li Muran nodded slightly, I am afraid that this matter can only be explained by "strange customs".

As a high priest, he was finally selected from among the patriarchs, and he also accepted the most precious treasures of the clan, and his duty was as simple as coming to worship the ancestors! This kind of strange custom is really not common in other places!

Li Muran and the other three were about to leave the main hall, when suddenly a magic light flashed at the entrance of the main hall, and the door of the hall closed by itself.

At the same time, an old and deep voice came from the main hall: "Hehe, the most important ceremony has not been completed yet, you are going to leave after this?!"

"There are people here!" Li Muran's face suddenly changed greatly, and without thinking, he immediately flew to the side of the Thousand Illusion Fairy.
