Undead Mentor Aspects

Chapter 270 Prologue

The three were fighting to the death in secret, and the three princes, who were amiable on the surface, followed the old emperor step by step.There is no expression on the handsome face, solemn, quiet and reserved.They know: this stage is not their own, nor their opponents, but the emperor of the Huanglong Empire, the great benevolent monarch, the first emperor of the past 500 years, His Majesty Jun Delong.

The old emperor walked to his seat and said softly, "Excuse me!"

The kneeling people seemed to be pardoned, they supported each other and stood up, and the weak ones took a deep breath. For their age, kneeling on the cold stone slab for just 10 minutes was already a great burden, and some people even insisted on Can't stop fainting, but no one dared to utter a word of complaint.It is a great honor to salute and pay respects to Long Yan in front of the emperor.Spring breeze and autumn rain are all kindness, and Longyan's fury is even more favored. How dare you complain?

In jargon: Do you still want to hang out in this circle?

The emperor took his seat, the first prince was on the left, the third prince was on the right, the seventh prince was on the left, and the right was vacant for the owner of this place—Xiao Shan, the acting head of the Xiao family.As for the two elders, Song and Wei, they looked at each other with a smile, and sat in the nearest No. [-] seat regardless of superiority or inferiority. The three major families were in harmony with each other, and naturally they would not fight for a small ranking.

In the Yellow Dragon Empire, the middle seat of the first faction is the most noble, and the rest are ranked closer to the center.For those with the same seat number, the left side is the respect.The rules have been passed down since ancient times, and they have rarely changed.

According to Xiao Tianming's explanation: the left side is close to the heart, if there is an assassin, the left side is more likely to succeed than the right side.Thus, the head of power puts more trusted people on the left hand side.One is to express trust; the other is to ensure your own safety.It can also be considered that the left side is close to the heart, which means "seeing as a confidant", showing dignity.

The royal family was seated, and the guards swiftly and accurately guarded the critical points. Even the original guards of the Xiao family had to cooperate and let go without leaving any dead ends.The guards brought by the major families have long been accustomed to the dominance of the royal family, so they let it go and did not dare to act rashly.

Seeing the two old men Song and Wei taking their seats one after another, followed by the Marquis sitting in the front row one after another, the nobles in the back dared to sit down and breathed a sigh of relief.He closed it again suddenly, for fear that the sound of panting would disturb the big shots in the front row and cause some trouble.

"In 34 years, Wang Yiyan, the people of the country did not dare to speak, and the road followed the eyes"

This kind of record is actually possible.Even Jun Delong, who is known for his enlightenment and benevolence, did not dare to lose his composure, let alone the period when several famous tyrants on the mainland were in power.The people live in dire straits, the bones of the dead are three thousand miles away, and the sons are changed to eat. These are no longer words in the history books, but living flesh and blood!

The moment the scene became quiet, Xiao Shan came out of a building on the east side of the altar square, dressed up, majestic and swift in his steps.Having been in a high position for many years and acting as an agent of the Xiao family's affairs, the prestige developed is enough to deter Xiaoxiao.Anyone who doesn't know will never recognize that he is a vicious person who usurped power and killed his nephew.

The finely dressed costumes shone with dazzling golden light under the sun. If you look closely, the subtle fluctuations of magic power make up for it. It is pure and not fake, and it is actually drawn directly with pure fine gold without any treatment. Embellished with bright gemstones of various colors, the dress is extravagant to the extreme.

Xiao Shan walked slowly. It was only more than a hundred meters from the gate to the center of the seat, but he walked for 10 minutes.If you pay attention to the time carefully, you will find that the time when His Majesty the Emperor arrives is precisely ten o'clock, Xiao Shan appears at ten ten o'clock, and when he arrives in front of the emperor, it is ten twenty o'clock.A minute is not bad, a second is not more, this is a ceremony, this is a solemn and mysterious time.

"Your Majesty the Emperor, minister, Xiao Shan, the acting head of the Xiao family, reports to you: preparations for the ritual of offering sacrifices to the heavens are complete, please announce the start of the ceremony!" Xiao Shan's expression was serious, full of will, and his voice was loud and imposing.

Although the day of offering sacrifices to heaven is a festival of the Xiao family, it also requires the emperor's permission.In previous years, it was a formality. The old emperor sent a special envoy, and the ceremony took place.The meaning of this ceremony is different, and everyone can see that the drunkard's intention is not to drink.The old emperor is here, the three princes are here, the elder Song Wei is here, and most of the powerful nobles in the empire are here. Only the real head of the Xiao family is not here, but a "substitute head" performing duties, which means nothing. And Ming.

Today, at this time, they witnessed a major event that could change the empire!

"Quite!" The old emperor was also not inferior, roaring like a lion, his voice shook the world.

Xiao Shan stepped up the steps, with a total of nine steps, symbolizing the nine heavens and the vastness of the gods.The altar is circular, and four staircases are stacked in the west, and exquisite white marble fences are placed on both sides of the stairs and around the altar.

Every corner of the main body of the altar is covered with dense decorations.Either describe the creation of God, or describe the battle of the gods, or describe the destruction of the world, and the earth is turned upside down, vividly showing the miracle of the Creator God.

In the middle of the altar is a giant hexagram magic circle.The six corners represent the six basic elements of creation: earth, water, fire, wind, light, and darkness.Legend has it that when the six elements gather together, the God of Creation can be awakened, or the grace of God will come, or the doomsday judgment will return to chaos.

The sun and moon are depicted on the left and right sides of the hexagram, which represent the power of life in the continent: the sun shines on the earth, the moon nourishes all things, the sun rises and the moon sets, and the cycle repeats itself.Other dense graphics, symbols, magic lines, runes, and various symbols and characters containing mysterious power are densely carved in every corner of the magic circle, like a beautiful flower carpet.

The legend of this magic circle is a product of the war of the gods. Up to now, no one can fully understand the symbols in it, and no one has repaired it.Fortunately, the Xiao family has endured for a long time, so this precious altar can continue to this day.

In the center of the magic circle is an exquisite and small column with a bowl-sized groove on it. The inside is clean and dust-free, natural and simple. When the entire altar is dissatisfied with the bustling patterns, this elegant and natural column is extremely prominent .Some people even believe that the altar is man-made, created by the mighty power of the ancient times.

But this pillar is the product of the gods, and it is a field that cannot be touched by mortals.Because any attack discovered so far, any magical weapon invented can not damage this pillar at all, which is extremely miraculous.

Xiao Shan walked slowly to the pillar, and took out a delicate crystal bottle from his arms. A few drops of colorless, pure crystal-like liquid were slowly flowing in the crystal bottle.This is the water of life. It is a legendary magical liquid that can revive the dead, flesh and bones, bring the dead back to life, remove all poisons, and even give people new life. It is also one of the most precious magic items on the mainland.

This is what Xiao Shan got from the elves at a great price when he was accumulating strength in the south.This kind of treasure is also extremely precious in the elves. These liquids are the surplus of a large tribe for 300 years.

Opening the crystal bottle, Xiao Shan took a deep breath.Even with his status, taking out the water of life as a sacrifice requires great courage.This is a treasure that can prolong life and bring the dead back to life. It can be said to be his second life.The problem is that the God of Creation may really exist in the dark, and the sacrifice must be completed with enough water of life as a sacrifice, and it is getting more and more every year.

Although it got richer and richer last time, it couldn't make up for the serious financial burden of the Xiao family.Some treasures in the world are measured in quantity, some in weight, and some precious in weight.And the eaux-de-vie sells on time.Xiao Shan's bottle of eau-de-vie is a treasure worth 300 years. How can the price not be expensive?

No wonder the Wei family occupies the army, the Song family occupies the politics, and the Xiao family can only cultivate a large number of practitioners.It's not that he doesn't want to interfere with power, but that he is too shy and powerless.

Abandoning troubled thoughts, Xiao Shan condensed his eyes on the bowl-shaped groove on the stone pillar, and a pool of clear liquid at the bottom sank to the bottom like a mirror.This is the best product that the Xiao family has dedicated for many years.

The strange thing is that as long as the spring of life is introduced into this bowl, it seems that it will never evaporate or be consumed.Wind, frost, rain, snow, wind and dust cannot pollute it.What's even more miraculous is that even without consumption, the water of life in the bowl is still decreasing at a constant rate.

It seems that, as in the legend, Chuangshi Shen was seriously injured and fell into a deep sleep. Only enough life force can repair his body.Until one day, when he recovers from his injuries and wakes up, he will activate infinite supernatural powers to completely destroy the world he created with his own hands but hurt his own.

Perhaps, in the endless years, one day he will remember that he created a new world again, but it is not the same as before...

Finally, maybe it was time, Xiao Shan poured the liquid into the stone bowl with his own hands.Anyone who is sensitive to time will definitely find that the time when the first drop of the eau-de-vie and the water in the bowl dissolves is exactly [-]:[-], not less than a second!According to legend, this is the time when the Creator God began to create the world.

Xiao Shan fell slowly, as if he was meditating, reminiscing, and pity. For some reason, everyone felt that the back was extremely complicated.For some reason, the clouds blocked the main sun. At that moment, a fiery red shadow flickered behind Xiao Shan. Everyone wiped their eyes and found that the clouds were passing by and the sun was shining on the earth. Xiao Shan was fine.Everyone thought they were dazzled, and they didn't have the nerve to tell the people around them, after all, the time was too short.

When the last drop of water of life was poured into the stone bowl, the stone bowl burst into green brilliance, condensed and lingering, straight to the sky.

Xiao Shan was overjoyed when he saw this, and it was the time when the sacrifice began in the family classics, and he quickly sang: "The great Chaos, the great god of time and space, the great god of eternity and destruction, the great god of creation , Gently listen to the call of the servant, and listen to the voice of the believer. The world is limited, but my devotion to you is infinite. May the power of our devotion light your way home! Great Chaos, great God... "

The sacrificial incantations that eulogized were sung by Xiao Shan at the level of a bard telling a story. It has to be said that Xiao Shan still has some artistic talent.Being able to fool around and tell a lie into the truth without blushing is the basic quality of a politician.

Between the sky and the earth, the situation changed suddenly, and large swirls enveloped the sky above the Xiao family.Everyone knows that the annual Xiao Family Sacrifice Ceremony has kicked off!

Note 1: In the ancient tradition, in the pre-Qin period and before that, the left is the most respected, and "the left is the top and the top is the most precious", which is influenced by the pre-Qin view of heaven, "the way of heaven is on the left, and the way of the tunnel is on the right". Combined with yin and yang, it means that the upper left is yang , the lower right is Yin.

This concept changed during the Qin and Han dynasties. The monarchy advocated authenticity and humanity, and respected the right, and the habit changed to the concept of "right is the most important".

Note 2: Chaos, the transliteration of Chaos in Greek, is quoted here as the name of the Creator God.
