The morning sun rises and the sea of clouds rolls over the waves.
In the blink of an eye, it was already the day for the Heaven Sacrifice Ceremony to be held in Tiance Mansion.
This is a big day, involving the thoughts, plans, expectations, preparations, and waiting of countless people in the Eastern Barren Continent and even outside the Eastern Barren Continent.
But when such a big day comes, it seems to be just an ordinary morning.
The heaven-sacrifice ceremony of Tiance Mansion was not held on the mountain peak in the center of Tiance Mansion's cave.
Instead, it was held on a peak on the northwest side of Tiance Mansion's blessed land.
This peak is called Shenwu Peak. There is a Hanyuan Hall on the top of the peak, and in front of the hall is the place for worshiping heaven.
Looking west from this Shenwu Peak, a few miles down the mountain is the weapon refining workshop of Tiance Mansion. The craftsmen in the weapon refining workshop are still working hard on the batch of magical weapons they recently built. Carry out collective training.
Further west, beyond the scope of Dongtian Paradise, there is thousands of miles of prosperous and prosperous territory under the jurisdiction of Tiance Mansion.
And if you look eastward from this mountain peak, you can see the winding and undulating mountains within the blessed land.
The daily lives and training grounds of millions of disciples in Tiance Mansion are all built among these mountains, like flat jade stones embedded in the mountains.
Today, among the millions of disciples, only 640,000 elites remain in Dongtian Blessed Land. The remaining hundreds of thousands have been deployed to various towns within the territory of Tiance Mansion to garrison.
There are 640,000 elite disciples in the mountains, on the tops of mountains, on the mountainside, at the foot of mountains, and in the valleys. They are divided into large and small formations. There are nearly 200 formation circles, formation flags are waving, and they are ready to go.
Xue Yannian looked at the eastern mountains and plains from Shenwu Peak. At this height and distance, human figures already appeared smaller than ants.
What makes people feel more eye-catching is the splendid main formation flag fluttering in the wind among those formations.
The gate flag, dragon flag, sun and moon flag, metal, wood, water, fire and earth five-star flag, wind, cloud, thunder and rain flag, Sidu flag, Wuyue flag, twenty-eight constellations flag, and beasts and raptor flags, which include bear, Pixiu, Xiu, tiger, eagle and eagle. , Kite Flag, and so on.
These two hundred formation circles are divided according to the cultivation level, fighting style, and major direction of each group of disciples. They are seamless and sparse.
Once the real war begins, the two hundred formation circles can be merged into eight large formations at any time, or they can be merged into four large formations, or they can be dispersed again, divided and combined, with endless changes.
"Everything is ready."
Xue Yannian's face was solemn and solemn, and he looked across the mountains to the far east, looking at the seemingly boundless Eastern Wilderness Rainforest.
But after just one glance, he withdrew his gaze and focused on what was in front of him.
"The grand ceremony is coming soon. Senior Brother Changsun and Senior Brother Qin, let's work together to activate Shenwu Peak."
Changsun Changshi and Qin Sima responded.
The three of them each threw out a piece of residual jade, and three pieces of residual jade, forming a complete array. The magic power of the three earth immortals worked together and poured into it.
The jade array plate was suspended, and suddenly a beam of light was released, shooting up into the sky and down into the mountain.
The clouds and mist in the sky were blown away by the power of the light pillar as it soared into the sky. The cloud waves rolled in circles, gradually turning the entire Tiance Mansion blessed land into a clear blue sky without any trace of color.
The light beam went downwards and rushed into the mountain.
The magical artifacts buried inside the Shenwu Peak were immediately stimulated and put into operation. The huge talisman and seal stones stored in the internal spaces of these magical artifacts, which had been nourished for a long time, were all released from the internal space and filled into the mountain in turn.
Although this Shenwu Peak can be called a peak, it is by no means the highest among the surrounding mountains.
But now, the entire mountain is growing larger, and the originally barren open space at the foot of the mountain is also occupied by uplifted earth and rocks.
I don't know how many huge rocks were released in a specific order inside the mountain, and an even larger skeleton was built in an orderly manner. It was a vague three-dimensional formation, which supported the mountain by more than 200 meters. Husband.
The sky is cloudless, the sky is bright, and the mountains are thousands of feet high, overlooking the peaks.
This is not the kind of height calculated based on the sea surface, but based on the plains around Tiance Mansion. On the flat ground, there are mountains of thousands of feet.
This kind of mountain peak is the true face of Shenwu Peak during the Heaven Sacrifice Ceremony.
Only such a mountain with hidden mysteries can be more conducive to holding a heaven-sacrifice ceremony to sense the thousands of years of fighting spirit of the righteous sages scattered on this continent, to guide the mysteries of heaven and earth, and to pay homage to the heroic souls.
The jade array plate slowly sank and merged into the mountain, and the light pillar slowly faded away.
when!
when! ! !
when! ! ! ! !
With nine bells ringing and eighty-one drum beats, the heaven-sacrifice ceremony officially begins.
Envoys from various cities and sects within the territory of Tiance Mansion, as well as guests invited by Tiance Mansion, have all come to Shenwu Peak to stand and watch the ceremony.
The flags are flying, the rituals and music are melodious.
Wang Jianpu ascended the altar, offered three animal sacrifices, burned incense, and offered libations. After three salutes, he read out the sacrificial text, then left the altar and stepped into the Hanyuan Hall.
The purple-faced ancestors, Xue Yannian, Changsun Changshi, etc. took the lead in singing the passionate ancient war song.
Around the altar, the elders of Tiance Mansion began a spectacular sacrificial song and dance.
This sacrificial song and dance is divided into four chapters, the Yunji chapter, the Kuigu chapter, the Ruide chapter, and the Dragon Control chapter.
The first chapter represents the kindness of God and ancestors, the second chapter represents the ancestors' battles, training of soldiers, and expansion of territory, and the third chapter represents the scene of nurturing the people and bringing good weather after the peaceful and prosperous era.
The fourth chapter is to call upon the heroic souls of the ancestors and martyrs to return in control of the dragon and witness the people of Tiance in this world. The ancient ideas and the ideas of this world are as magnificent as one, passed down from generation to generation, and endless.
When the sacrificial singing and dancing had just begun, the sound of chanting scriptures could also be heard in the Hanyuan Hall. It was compatible with the ritual music, solemn and majestic, and deeply called for the return of ancient thoughts.
The voice of the sacrifice spread across the mountains and rivers, vaguely and vaguely throughout the territory of Tiance Mansion, and also reached the depths of the Eastern Wilderness Rainforest.
In the Great Demon Cave of the Five Emperors, Wei Yuan stood high and stared at the west.
Behind him are three Earth Immortals from the Five Emperors Great Demon Hall, who command the sect's 500,000 main disciples.
The figures of these demonic disciples were mixed with the demons they raised. The demonic shadows were flying all over the mountains and plains, and there were thousands of ghost fires in the air, and the flames were blazing.
Everyone and the demons looked towards the direction where the voice of the sacrifice came from. The irritable person used his sharp nails to scratch the edge of the magic knife, and the calm person counted with his fingers, trying to figure out how much blood food he could take advantage of in this battle. .
Righteous disciples who are full of passion are the best food for them.
They all know that this battle will be more tragic than before, but it also means that as long as this battle is passed, the blood in the bag is overflowing, the bones are in the sleeves, and the cultivation materials will usher in a great harvest. For a long time, I had the confidence to go out and roam around and have fun.
bring it on! bring it on! Sheer is covered in blood and bones, adding another layer of longevity to me! ! !
"Among all the demon sects, the Five Emperors Great Demon Hall has the strongest military appearance, the strongest Taoist heart, and the best morale!"
Shan Sheng Tian clasped his palms together and looked sideways.
The arrogance of the five hundred thousand disciples of the Five Emperors Great Demon Hall distorted the air nearby, and formed a strange phenomenon like billowing smoke a hundred feet above the ground.
The magic power of the devil appeared in various psychedelic colors, and in the smoke and clouds, faces and figures of skeletons, beauties, princes and generals, gods, demons and ghosts kept flashing past.
But these illusions eventually turned into black smoke, covering the blue sky with a thick ink-colored haze.
The sacrificial music of Tiance Mansion has a melodious melody and gradually rises.
Wei Yuan seemed to have seen the ferocity of today's battle, and he couldn't help but feel a little surging in his heart, but when it came time to speak, he only had two decisive words.
"Go to war!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the black smoke cloud suddenly expanded, so thick that it even swallowed up the scenery near the ground.
The huge black tide is like a dark sky hanging down, sweeping through the Eastern Wilderness Rainforest, covering the blue sky and the earth, stretching endlessly. No matter whether you look left or right, you cannot see this black tide. boundary.
A moment later, the increasingly dense and heavy black sky completely submerged the vast rain forest, pushing towards the green mountains and green waters of Tiance Mansion.
The easternmost side of Tiance Mansion's Dongtian Formation is bounded by the river.
The singing and dancing of the sacrifices did not stop, and a silver-white rainbow flew out from the Shenwu Peak first.
Xue Yannian, who had a black beard and silver armor, landed on the cliff on this side of the river and pulled up a formation flag with a black background and cloud patterns. The formations of the soldiers of Tiance Mansion behind him instantly changed, and the power of the formations converged in this direction.
When the flag fell, there was only a loud bang.
The water waves on the river suddenly stopped, glowing with pure divine light. Countless water droplets broke away from the ground and rushed upward.
These water droplets carry sharp spiritual energy, like tens of millions of crystal clear projectiles, shot into the black smoke clouds.
The water level dropped rapidly, and the rushing river water in the distance could not match the speed of consumption.
The section of the river closest to Xue Yannian soon dried up and bottomed out, exposing a section of river bottom mud two or three miles long.
The river is still flowing, and the exposed silt river bed is getting longer and longer.
There were as many spiritual energy projectiles as there were drops of water in a section of the river, which were shot into the black smoke.
Crystal water droplets exploded in it, and the spiritual energy neutralized the demonic energy, making the extremely dense black sky finally thin, and the figures of the demonic disciples inside were faintly visible.
Thousands of thunders sounded in the cave sky of Tiance Mansion.
It was the light of the hooves of the bronze war horse, the sound of smashing through the air, and the sound of the wheels of the chariot's magic weapon running across the sky.
The army of Tiance Mansion crossed the long river bank and fought out from the sky above thousands of cliffs.
The front line of this army collided with the black tide of the demonic army just above the river.
In the black smoke clouds, thousands of blood-red lanterns lit up, with slender bodies flying and moving with those lanterns.
Those bloody lanterns are the eyes of wooden dragons.
The bodies of these dark blue demonic dragons are made of thick vines. The vines of different thicknesses form the obvious muscle lines on these dragons, leaving some pores to allow air to flow through them. body of.
And inside these pores, you can see the densely packed magic spells and words in the wooden dragon's body. When the air passes through their bodies, it is stirred by these spells, giving them the power to fly into the sky, the magical power to compress the wind and spit out pillars of strong wind. .
This is also one of the devils and demons. They take the energy of ordinary vegetation and condense it into dark green wood that is several times tougher than black iron. Then they carve spells to create these wooden dragon magic weapons.
The disciples of the demonic path stood on these demon dragons and fought with the elites of Tiance Mansion who came driving chariots.
The demonic dragon flies, rolls high and low, spins and strangles, accompanied by various spells cast by the demonic disciples.
The war horses are galloping, as fast as thunder, and the chariots are dexterously angled, carrying soldiers and generals to shuttle between these demonic dragons.
Almost in the blink of an eye, demonic dragons were cut off, formless demons were annihilated, chariots were shattered, and blood flew everywhere.
The broken instruments and corpses of both good and evil fell like a heavy rain on the dry mud below.
This fight slightly blocked the long-distance attack of the Five Emperors and Great Demon Hall, and dampened some of their vigor. As the demonic army pressed forward, Xue Yannian led everyone to retreat slightly.
Fighting in your own paradise of cave heaven, you can often gain great blessing advantages, and the methods of luring the enemy deep are common in Donghuang.
However, this kind of luring the enemy also needs to be measured. If you retreat too much, you will easily be penetrated through the defense line and enter an important place inside the cave.
Therefore, Xue Yannian and the others retreated very slowly and steadily. The chariots were running and still formed an ever-changing narrow formation in the air, like a suspended trench.
As an Earth Immortal, Xue Yannian can support the operation of his magic power to extremely long distances, so while waving flags in mid-air and presiding over the formation, he also constantly uses his magic power to check for leaks and fill in the gaps.
Many arc-shaped sword lights emanate from his body, flying close to the ground, flickering in the air, passing through the forest and breaking leaves. In a distant flash, they often split the entire body and soul of the demon disciple into pieces.
Suddenly, a dark red fireball flashed not far in front of Xue Yannian.
The fire expanded and turned into a flame demon god with an old face, red hair and red robes. Nine fire dragons flew around him, roared and flew out one after another, crashing into Xue Yannian.
Xue Yannian waved the flag to slay the dragon, but the flagpole collided with the fire dragon. It was vaguely visible that the heads of the fire dragons turned out to be some exquisitely carved copper pestle instruments.
The Nine Dragons Flame Pestle, the Flame Demon God, is the Five Emperors Great Demon Hall, the leader of the Red Emperor Fire Demon lineage.
Xue Yannian was hit one after another in mid-air and flew out. He roared suddenly and threw the flag into the formation. With a spin, he transformed into a three-foot-tall divine general's fighting body.
Tiance Mansion's skills focus on the physical body, and the strength of the physical body is not inferior to that of the divine soul. When the magical body of the divine soul and the physical body are completely integrated, his black hair also turns to silver, and his whole body glows with a silver-white divine light.
With the silver-white saber in hand, Xue Yannian set off a huge sword light with one strike, repelling the nine fire dragons and was about to kill the leader of the fire demon.
Suddenly, there seemed to be a white-gold sun in the sky, and all the light emitted by the sun was extremely sharp sword energy.
The leader of the White Emperor lineage of the Great Demon Hall of Five Emperors, his divine soul and body are not in human form.
Instead, it is like a collection of hundreds of thousands of sharp swords, with the sword tips pointing outward and turning endlessly.
Xue Yannian's silver-white battle armor was instantly hit by these ray-like sword energies, and densely packed burnt red dots were shot out. Although it was not penetrated, the combined power of the countless sword energies knocked his entire body away. go out.
The soul body of the leader of the fire demon shook, and hundreds of tiny copper rods flew out from all over the body.
These copper rods grew in the wind and turned into huge fire dragon copper pillars wrapped around chains with holes cut out. They flew to dozens of nearby hillsides and sprayed out magic fireballs like meteors.
The cliffs and peaks on this side of the river and all the vegetation on the hillside were burned to ashes in the blink of an eye.
Dozens of hillsides turned into scorched earth one after another, with billowing poisonous smoke, which was compressed into highly toxic poison. It was mixed into the demonic fires, which further increased the power of the demonic fires, and even began to absorb and burn the spiritual energy of the underground.
The disciples of the Red Emperor's fire demon lineage were bathed in the light and black smoke of these fires, and their magic power was soothed. They killed the Tiance Mansion army and retreated steadily.
At this time, a relatively flat grassland in front suddenly cracked, and under the ground, spiritual liquid was billowing, and the spiritual light was bright.
A large iron gun with a black body and a silver blade rose slowly from the silver-white spiritual veins.
Qin Sima's figure appeared next to the big iron gun. He held the gun, shook it in the air, and thrust out the gun head.
A fire dragon copper pillar more than ten miles away broke with a roar, and all the chains wrapped around the copper pillar also broke.
The formation formed by hundreds of fire dragon copper pillars was originally blowing the poisonous smoke of the demonic fire into the interior of Tiance Mansion, that is, to the west, but this time a formation hub at the rear suddenly broke.
The entire fire dragon copper pillar formation produced demonic fire and poisonous smoke, all of which rushed towards this gap.
The disciples of the fire demon lineage who were originally fighting towards the interior of Tiance Mansion were wandering in the light of the fire. In an instant, thousands of them were pulled away by the backward fire and crashed into the hillsides that turned into scorched earth.
"We have had many dealings with each other, but I didn't expect you to have such a skill!"
The leader of the Fire Demon was startled. Nine fire dragons attacked Qin Sima. His soul was sitting behind the copper pillar formation, and he wanted to rearrange the formation.
Qin Sima stood in the air, his figure rising slowly, and the gun in his hand was like a dragon and snake dancing around him, swimming back and forth close to him. The nine fire dragons were easily smashed away by him.
The tip of the big iron gun thrust out, always with invisible force, as if ignoring the distance, passing through the obstacles of the formation, and hitting the vital points of the formation.
Not only the leader of the fire demon, but even further away, the vital points of the wooden demon dragons, and the demonic formations composed of the disciples of the water demon and the wood demon were often defeated by him with a single volley.
The conflict of vitality in the formation caused those who set up the formation to fly in all directions.
Qin Sima's magic power may not be better than Xue Yannian's, but this iron spear is a magic weapon left behind by his ancestor, the first-generation Tiance general.
Although this gun is not an immortal magic weapon, its material is close to that level and is equivalent to the Rain Sword above.
And unlike the rain sword above, the inside of this gun also contains the insights of the past sima's tactics in the Tiance Mansion. It is hidden in the spiritual veins and nourished to ensure that these insights of tactics will not be lost.
With this gun in hand, every blow of Qin Sima seemed to be the ultimate blow after all the sima's exhaustive consideration.
The divine soul body of Bai Di's leader rotated, and thousands of rays of sword energy swept towards him.
After the light swept through, countless light-transmitting holes appeared in the mountains, forests, rocks, human bodies, and magical instruments, extending all the way from the surrounding hillsides to Qin Sima's side.
Suddenly, a chessboard appeared in the sky. The chessboard lifted up and flew into the sky, carrying the divine soul body of the White Emperor's head.
All light and sword energy were blocked by the chessboard, forming an increasingly larger and square shadow on the ground.
However, when the two rise to a certain height, this shadow no longer exists.
That chessboard is the divine soul body of Changsun Changshi.
The two of them are old rivals. One's sword energy turns into light, scattering in ten directions, and the other's sword qi spreads in nineteen directions. The formation contains voids, turns the yin and yang, swallows the sword light, and moves far away without hurting himself at all.
Qin Sima replaced Xue Yannian in charge of the defense line here, and the army of Tiance Mansion turned around.
There are hundreds of battle platforms in the sky, flying chariots, formation flags on the ground, and combat boots flying at low altitude.
The six military camps of wind, forest, fire, mountain, dragon, and tiger were inextricably killed by the four-line army of the Five Emperors and Great Demon Hall.
The southeastern part of the cave in Tiance Mansion was completely reduced to a battlefield. Xue Yannian also joined the battle. The surrounding peaks were displaced and the slopes collapsed. It was not uncommon for them to collapse.
Directly south of the cave in Tiance Mansion, a large area of the mountain on the shore suddenly collapsed and slid into the river. Among the collapsed mountains, the pliable green grass quickly withered.
The vitality emanating from beneath the Dongtian strata quickly withered away.
"Yellow-eyed one, here comes my old friend!"
A sledgehammer smashed open countless rubbles, and the purple-faced ancestor rushed here with Yunziying.
In addition to the sword, Yunziying's standard magic weapon also has a green medicine cloud bag wrapped around his waist.
This bag can be used as a flying magic weapon, carrying multiple people to fly, but when you open the mouth of the bag, you can blow out a pervasive thick green cloud of medicine.
The medicine cloud seeped into the ground, forcing all the demon disciples underground to escape from the ground.
The leader of the Yellow Emperor's ancient demon lineage, he was skinny, with a yellow cloth around his waist, and was five feet tall. As soon as he showed his true form on the ground, he saw the purple-faced ancestor's sledgehammer coming towards his head.
Wei Yuan, the sect master of the Five Emperors and Great Demon Hall, did not take action and remained at the edge of the rain forest, looking at the cave sky of Tiance Mansion on the other side.
Because, Wang Jianpu has already come to his side.
On the Shenwu Peak, the sacrificial singing and dancing continued, and the curse sounds coming from the Hanyuan Hall became louder and louder.
The sound coming from the battlefield would be completely overshadowed by the sound of chanting a curse when it reached this place.
No, not overpowering, but a blend, a unification.
War, sacrifices and spells were played together, spread from Tiance Mansion, and echoed throughout the universe.
An eye opened in the void, but no one on Shenwu Peak noticed it.
This eye gradually came closer, spying on the scene in Hanyuan Hall.
The six divine monks sat together, and the sound of incantations formed golden characters visible to the naked eye in the hall, flying in the air.
Guan Luoyang stood next to the Six Divine Monks, with his back to the temple door. He was obviously watching the Six Divine Monks and protecting them.
The eye in the void did not look directly at Guan Luoyang. It just glanced at Guan Luoyang briefly and then closed it to avoid being discovered by him.
When the sacrificial song and dance reaches the fourth chapter, "Controlling the Dragon", the power of the Buddha's mantra will be exerted to its strongest moment, recalling the fighting spirit of the ancestors of Tiance Mansion, and refining the demon in one fell swoop. Honor the Golden Feather and repair the Kaiyuan War Box.
Such fighting spirit and momentum can even push the Kaiyuan War Box and Wang Sword Servant to the strongest moment in their lives.
If everything goes well, at that moment, Wang Jianpu may be able to take advantage of this trend and reach the realm of immortals.
However, what if the six monks who presided over these spells were suddenly awakened with murderous intent at the most critical moment?
Then their spell will be interrupted and all efforts will be wasted.
Those who protect them will be stunned for a moment, and their flaws will be revealed.
Perhaps that flaw will be very, very short-lived in reality, but as long as it exists, it is enough.
"...If a person encounters a serious illness and suffers from all kinds of suffering, he can hear this Dharani mantra. He will be freed from suffering and the obstacles of sin will be eliminated."
"Even the four living beings who hear this mantra will give up their sickness and suffering and leave their womb shape. They will be transformed into common sense and destiny by riding on the lotus. They will never forget all the places they were born."
The sacrificial songs and dances have entered the "Dragon Controlling" chapter, and the spells are becoming louder and louder.
If you were an Earth Immortal, even if you were on the Shenwu Peak, you would be able to notice that the thoughts of bloody battles in the past are gradually gathering in various areas within the territory of Tiance Mansion.
"...Because it can purify all sentient beings of the ten evil sins. It can save all hell beasts, hungry ghosts and Yamas."
In the void, someone secretly made a handprint.
From Cihang Zhuangyan Temple, a set of mantras in "Void Trek Endless Treasure".
It is also used to induce elixirs, such as the Ancient Saint Ningxin Pill and other elixirs, but in fact they are the real medicinal power of "Jambuddha Shadow Pill".
In the reflection of all living beings in Jambudvipa, all living beings have evil thoughts in their hearts, and all kinds of evil have arisen in the reflection.
The sound of the Dharani mantra on the top of the Buddha suddenly stopped.
The six great monks of Fayu Temple opened their eyes. Purple thunder seas surged in their eyes, and lightning overflowed from the corners of their eyes.
Although the sky above Shenwu Peak was still blue, countless electric lights suddenly flashed, and lightning flew across the sky and crashed down to the ground.
In that moment, thousands of lightning bolts fell around this high mountain.
The dazzling electric snake twists and connects the sky and the earth.
Before the lightning had time to subside, a line of void opened in the Hanyuan Hall, and a golden sword stabbed Guan Luoyang's back.
Light collides with light!
Six skinny palms entwined with the meaning of purple thunder from heaven were photographed from six people and from six directions, but they seemed to be photographed by one person.
One mind and one body, no time and no leakage.
Six hands slapped the spine of the golden sword, with overwhelming killing intent, all used to hinder the sword's progress.
"If the blessings of all sentient beings are gradually diminishing, and they should suffer short-lived and disabled diseases, be ugly, small, poor, blind, deaf, and mute, they should be reborn as animals in hell and suffer all kinds of suffering. Those who hear the name of this Dharani that I speak will have their evil retributions eliminated and will be liberated. …”
The sound of the Dharani mantra on the top of the Buddha sounded again, the divine mantra was sung, the Sanskrit words were beating, and the auspicious light in the void was exactly the same as the previous scene.
The Six Divine Monks have such overwhelming murderous intent that it is impossible for them to recite such a spell now.
No, these sounds, from beginning to end, were not made by the six of them!
The purple divine thunder clashed with the light of the golden sword, illuminating the crack in the void. Shan Shengtian in the crack looked past the six old monks and looked forward.
"If there are sentient beings who have accumulated bad karma..."
Guan Luoyang turned around, still holding a scroll of scriptures in his hand, raised his eyes and recited each word.
"The ten evils and five rebellions are all obstacles to sin, whether they are minor or serious..."
"Everyone, destroy them!"
(End of chapter)
