In the fifth year of the fifth lunar month, the summer solstice is the longest day of the year.
During the summer solstice, the weather is hot, five poisons are abundant, and germs flourish. The medical level in the secular world is low, and people are prone to illness. Once a plague occurs, people often die thousands of miles away.
Therefore, May is called the "poisonous month" and "evil month", and the fifth day of May is regarded as the "poisonous day" of the poisonous month, the "evil day" of the evil month, and the most poisonous day.
On such a special day, in the early days of ancient times, in order to pray for health, living beings held various grand ceremonies on the fifth day of May, which led to the development of festivals that continue to this day. Duan means the beginning, and Wu means five, so the poisonous day is also called "Dragon Boat Festival".
During the Dragon Boat Festival, ordinary people bathe with vanilla, wear sachets, drink realgar wine, and hang mugwort and calamus to remove dirt, prevent diseases, and isolate poisonous insects.
Although……
Today, due to the implementation of the "Life Extension Plan", there are no longer "mortals" in the true sense of the word in the mortal world.
Mechanical genetic lifeforms, elemental vampires, psychic zombies, rune lichs, memetic longevity species, etc. all have a lifespan of at least eight million years. All sentient beings have great strength that can move mountains and fill seas. Their Qi and blood are like fire. Common diseases and poisonous insects can no longer get close to them. They can be said to be invulnerable to all poisons of water, fire and water.
The Dragon Boat Festival Poison Day has lost its original meaning to the common people in the world, but after all, it is a custom that has been continued for hundreds of billions of years. For more than 3,000 years, it has not been able to change this habit engraved in the bones, even in the spiritual world. In this way, when relatives and friends meet each other, they will still solemnly say: Dragon Boat Festival health!
——
In the Qiqiong Mountains, the two groups of men and horses stood hundreds of feet apart. Hundreds of thousands of monks were holding weapons. The atmosphere was oppressive, and the blood-red fighting spirit was rushing into the night.
At this time, an old man with a white beard and black hair stepped out of the crowd, with a strong aura, and he was a powerful man in the Heaven Realm.
The old man raised the corners of his mouth and smiled. Suddenly the tense atmosphere melted away like ice and snow. He cupped his fists in salute and shouted loudly:
"Fellow Taoist, have a happy Dragon Boat Festival!"
The leader on the opposite side was stunned when he heard this, his eyes showed a complicated look, he sighed silently in his heart, and returned the greeting with his hands.
"Have a happy Dragon Boat Festival!"
When exactly?
The two forces that originally lived together in the Qiqiong Mountains and lived in harmony have now come to the point where they are facing each other at knifepoint over a spiritual mine, and they have to fight to the death.
This greeting made all the monks look extremely complicated, but their worries disappeared in an instant, and their eyes gradually became cold and stern.
For the continuation of inheritance and the future of the force, in these days of resource shortage, a precious spiritual mine is of great significance and may determine the survival of the force. Who dares to give in? Who can give in! ?
If you want to blame, just blame those "disqualified true immortals" who have emptied the world's resources!
"kill!
"
The white-bearded old man's expression, which was smiling just a moment ago, turned into a sharp and cold look in an instant. He raised his long sword high and slashed down, roaring the horn to kill.
"kill--"
"Kill!
"
The blue sky and green rivers and mountains were instantly covered by overwhelming magical powers. Blood and fire were intertwined. Many figures escaped and fought in the void. The aftermath swept across and crushed the mountains and the earth. The magma ejected from the cracks in the ground collided with the thunder falling from the sky. , bursting into brilliant fireworks.
Rumble——
Buzz!
Suddenly, a deafening loud noise came from the sky, followed by a buzzing with a strange frequency. These sounds contained terrifying power and radiated in all directions. In the blink of an eye, they reached the Qiqiong Mountains. The vast battlefield suddenly became dead silent, and the shouts of killing were completely covered up.
"What...is happening!?"
The figures of the two parties fell uncontrollably, hitting the ground in a state of embarrassment. They looked up at the sky in disgrace, with a look of fear and shock on their faces.
Could it be that there are gods and demons fighting in the sky! ?
In this chaotic era, fighting can be seen everywhere, and gods and demons are also frequent visitors. There is not even a powerful person in a small force like them. Gods and demons never dare to provoke them. If the other party
I was unhappy, so I wiped them out and they were gone. Without the official organization to control the world, there was no place to complain.
The white-bearded old man and the red-haired man from the opposite force looked at each other, and both saw the uneasiness in the other's eyes. They immediately stopped hesitating, hurriedly summoned their own troops, and knelt down respectfully, not daring to continue fighting or causing trouble. A little movement, a posture of waiting for the gods and demons to fall.
winter!
Winter winter winter!
After the buzzing sound, there was a loud bang of drums. The sound of the drums became more and more urgent. The sound waves were as solid as substance, causing ripples layer by layer in the void. By the time it reached the ground, the strange towering clouds appeared. The Qiongshan Mountains were suddenly crushed and collapsed bit by bit, cracking inch by inch.
"Pfft——"
The monks were horrified. The drum sound like raindrops seemed to be beating on their hearts, causing their breaths to surge, and their faces to spit out hot blood uncontrollably. Their faces turned pale.
"My lord, please forgive me! My lord, please forgive me! My lord, please forgive me..."
The white-bearded old man didn't have time to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, and kowtowed in fear and shouted. He didn't care about face and dignity at all now, he only had one thought in his mind, and that was to take the many disciples behind him back alive.
Dongdongdong——
There was no response, but there was still the rapid beating of drums. The old man's heart trembled, and doubts arose in his heart. He was so frightened that he didn't pay attention. The sound of drums seemed to be the beating of war drums? Isn't it the sound of a battle between gods and demons?
Curious in their hearts, all the monks slowly raised their heads and carefully looked towards the direction of the sound of drums in the sky. At a glance, their expressions were completely stunned.
boom!
The blue sky was completely unrecognizable at this moment. Huge black cracks spread across the void and extended to the end of the line of sight. In the center of countless cracks, a round, colorless vortex floated silently, and a terrifying roar came from the extremely fast rotation. The sound of the drum came from the vortex.
[In view of the general environment,
What is this! ?
The old man was dumbfounded. Because the distance was so far away, he didn't know how many light-years there were, but the strange vortex still covered the sky. It was huge and vast, no less than tens of thousands of light-years away, like an extremely dense galaxy whirlpool.
"Holy war!"
"Holy war!
"
"Holy war!
! "
"Hohohoho——"
The unknown language screamed the same words repeatedly, and the monks under the Qiqiong Mountains looked at each other. Although they did not know what it meant, they could very clearly sense the terrifying fighting intention and murderous intention in this voice.
Card! Kaka!
The sound of the drums stopped, and a harsh and harsh friction sound came from the huge vortex. An infinite giant slowly rowed out of the vortex, accumulating dimensional space and time, causing it to be annihilated in the wail.
A moment later, the behemoth with a diameter of tens of thousands of light years finally squeezed out of the whirlpool channel, blocking the sky and the sun, casting endless shadows, and the vast land was instantly shrouded in darkness.
This is a thirteen-sided pyramid with a height of 97,000 light-years and a base length of 17,000 light-years. Each side is a different color and is engraved with endless complicated lines, with regular divine light shining on it.
Each pyramid slope is engraved with a lifelike and huge statue of the god in the center where countless lines intertwine and merge. They have four limbs, a halo above their heads, and dense tentacles on their heads. They all have bright eyes, like living creatures, scanning the world with indifferent and stern eyes.
"Collecting information from the outside world..."
"Analyze the environment of this world..."
"Searching for living things' memories..."
"Establish a defensive stronghold and prepare to lead the follow-up army. The weapons are preheated and the defensive barrier is turned on at full power. The highest order: guard the crossing passage from being destroyed!"
As the instructions were given one by one, the endless runes on the pyramid shone brightly, and the light flow converged to the top of the tower, instantly forming a golden vertical boy, with his eyes slightly focused, scanning the world.
On the earth, at the foot of the Qiqiong Mountains, the monks had already been frightened by this terrifying giant that had arrived across the territory.
, he knelt down on the spot with dull eyes, his thoughts stopped functioning, and his body was under control. He could only tremble due to the instinctive fear of life.
As those golden eyes swept across, hundreds of thousands of monks' eyes were about to burst, their orifices were bleeding, their eyes turned white, foaming at the mouth, and they fell to the ground convulsing as if they were electrocuted.
boom! Bang bang!
Intense explosions continued to sound, and the monks could not bear the pain and load caused by this rough search for souls. The brains were evaporated by the high temperature, and the heads exploded like watermelons, and the red and white mixture splashed all over the floor.
"No--"
The white-bearded old man was, after all, the top master in the Tongtian Realm. At the moment of life and death, his mind finally broke free from the shackles of fear. His bleeding eyes stared angrily, and with a wave of his hand, he cut off his own head.
Immediately, without daring to hesitate, the headless body spurted blood, ejected into the air, shattered the void, and fled into the distance.
Katcha!
The void shattered, and the headless body fell helplessly. All the essence was sucked out of the body as if it were a dead bone. Even before his death, he could not escape the distance of thousands of feet.
Looking down at the earth, the broken ground is filled with headless corpses, all of which died from the explosion of their heads. It is too horrible to see.
This is just a scene in a small corner of the Qiqiong Mountains.
With the thirteen-sided pyramid as the center, it is within a hundred times its size, that is, nearly 10 million light-years.
In the seven realms that existed in this area, all living creatures were annihilated a quarter of an hour after the pyramid started collecting information. The memory information was read and the life essence was sucked dry. No matter whether they were mortal creatures or powerful gods and demons, their brains were wiped out without any resistance.
