Chapter 526: Coming to the City of Gods with a Sword (Update 7)

Buzz~

Light and shadow intertwine, like water flowing.

In an instant, Li Yuan felt his body lighten up, and his soul left his body. He rose rapidly in a way that he still could not understand. Suddenly, he felt light and dark changing.

As if he was in a trance, he had escaped from the secluded realm.

Woo~

After recovering from his trance, Li Yuan opened his eyes and saw the fluttering flags and the golden bell hanging high in the sky.

"Here again?"

Li Yuan looked around. At this time, the sky was not bright yet, and the fog was hazy.

This place was not unfamiliar to him. He had been there before when he listened to the sound of heaven. It was the tallest building in the Universiade Imperial City, the Star Observation Deck.

"The golden bell of the sun."

Li Yuan raised his head, and the bronze bell was already very close to him. However, he was in an illusionary state and could not get close, let alone take it by force.

There was silence on the observatory. Li Yuan floated to the edge like mist, overlooking the entire imperial city. His current state was very strange, weak and weak, but his eyesight was extremely amazing.

From an altitude of three thousand meters, he could clearly see the various buildings in the imperial city. After concentrating for a moment, he could already see the big black umbrella under the observatory, as well as the Universiade Imperial Guards who were waiting in formation all around.

"Sacrificial ceremony?"

Li Yuan's eyes narrowed, and he instantly thought of Lingyin just now: "A sacrificial ceremony from the Cloud Demon Clan outside the sky?"

Woo~

With a thought in his mind, Li Yuan suddenly felt an invisible force coming out. With just one tug, he was dragged down from the observatory.

Three thousand meters above the ground, he reached the bottom in the blink of an eye, and he could clearly see Huang Longzi under the big umbrella.

"Visitors from outer space."

Looking at the middle-aged man with a beard and dark blue eyes, Li Yuan's heart moved and he landed on the high platform that seemed to have been built not long ago.

Observing from a close distance, the appearance of the foreign visitor that day looked a bit like a hero from the city, but Li Yuan paid more attention to his pair of green eyes, and he vaguely felt the light of the weapon.

But it seemed like it was isolated by something and couldn't see clearly.

"The Yun Mo clan still has some background. This ritual is really interesting... it can provide insight into the past and present, see the future, and get a glimpse of the gods? It's not a small talk..."

Li Yuan heard Huang Longzi muttering to himself.

This extraterrestrial visitor was sitting cross-legged, holding an umbrella in one hand and flipping through a silk book in the other.

Li Yuan looked at it carefully and saw that there were many spiritual beasts and rare treasures listed on it, whose names should be needed for the ceremony.

"Peeping God Festival?"

Li Yuan was alert when he suddenly saw Huang Longzi put away the silk book and held down the whisk on his waist. He turned around and saw Wan Zhuliu wearing armor and holding a sword.

After that, it was Emperor Qian and Wu Yingxing.

Finally, it was the ten-mouth Yunxiang Cauldron that the guards brought in.

"...such a big deal?!"

Li Yuan was shocked.

The light of the incense was not blocked. At a glance, he saw that the light was surging like a tide. Each of these ten incense-containing cauldrons was much larger and contained much more incense than what he had before!

Obviously, it was prepared for sacrifice.

"His Majesty!"

All the guards near the high platform saluted, but Emperor Qian didn't say anything, just lowered his hands and waited.

"The Peeping God Festival...are you looking for me?"

Li Daoye felt a warning sign. Ever since he entered the Bafang Temple, he had not felt at ease. The presence of the imperial court made him feel like he was having trouble.

Woo~

Emperor Qian was silent, but the sound of needle drops could be heard all around, and the silence was terrifying.

Li Yuan moved with the wind, circling around the crowd, observing Wan Zhuliu, Emperor Qian and others at close range. The lights of various magic weapons were very dazzling.

"The Demon-Suppressing Dragon Divine Sword, the Sea-Suppressing Black Turtle Armor..."

Li Yuan was both fearful and hot-eyed. Counting the Golden Sun Bell on the observatory, there were three Heavenly Fortune Mysterious Weapons placed in front of him.

No matter what...

"Open the festival!"

At one moment, Li Yuan heard Huang Longzi's long, singing voice.

The next moment, there was a sound of armor scraping, and the guards outside the altar all retreated, leaving a hundred feet of open space.

Emperor Qian did not retreat, but Wan Zhuliu and Wu Yingxing also approached him.

Li Yuan retreated behind Emperor Qian. Although he didn't think that the sacrifice could hurt him in this state, there was nothing wrong with being more cautious.

boom!

On the high platform, Huang Longzi flicked the fly whisk, and the ten cauldrons exploded. The rich incense rose into the sky, but it did not disperse, but instead coiled over the altar.

“What a luxury!”

This was the first time for Li Yuan to see so many incense burning together, and he couldn't help but be a little stunned. The foundation of this Universiade court was really terrifyingly thick.

Woohoo~

On the altar, Huang Longzi kept shaking his fly whisk and muttering words. After a moment, he suddenly raised his head, and everyone present, including Li Yuan, also looked at him.

The churning sea of ​​clouds was dyed red by the morning light, and then the four-wheeled sun jumped out of the sea of ​​clouds.

Buzz~

The moment the sun rose in the east, Li Yuan felt the altar shaking and the incense burning violently. Then, he saw an incredible scene.

The sun shines from the sky very quickly, and with it comes the purple energy that rolls like a torrent!

"Purple Qi is coming from the east!"

For just a moment, Li Yuan's vision was filled with only purple.

The purple air attracted by the incense covered the altar and the imperial city, and it was more like filling the entire divine capital city in an instant!

"Um?!"

In a guild hall in Shendu City, Long Yingchan, who had been awake all night, seemed to have woken up. He raised his hand and pushed open the window, only to see a surge of purple energy, filling the city like a sea of ​​clouds.

Suddenly, exclamations of exclamation sounded one after another in the streets and alleys.

"Where did the purple energy come from?"

Nie Xianshan's surprised voice came from next door. He broke out of the window and jumped onto the eaves of the highest restaurant nearby. Many figures flashed around him at the same time.

Fang Sanyun, Zen Master Dading, Tian Shezi and others were also keenly aware of the strangeness.

"The earth's veins are shaking!"

Taoist Yuan Qing suddenly appeared in front of everyone, looking through the purple air and towards the imperial city: "This is like a ritual..."

"Another ceremony?"

"What does the imperial court want? Don't you invite me to watch the grand ceremony together in fifteen days?"

"Ahead of time? No, this is not a ceremony!"

The several masters of the great sects looked at each other and discussed over the sound transmission. Suddenly, Long Xixiang's voice came:

"Look east!"

East?

Several people were startled and looked up, their expressions changed.

The sea of ​​clouds was billowing in the sky, and the four rising suns were projecting four rays of purple energy that seemed to be substantial, but how thick they were.

Purple lights rolled together in the sky above the city of Shendu.

The light and shadow are intertwined and flowing rapidly...

"This, such a big movement?!"

Under the stargazing platform, Li Yuan was a little stunned and puzzled: "What, what is the principle of this?"

There were many martial arts in the martial arts world that breathed in the purple energy from the east, and he had learned some, but the sight of four pillars of purple energy being ejected when the gate opened on a bright day was still a bit too shocking.

"Peeping God Festival!"

On the altar, Huang Longzi swept away the dust, and his voice finally became understandable:

"Looking at the sky with a human being, you can only see the sky; looking at the sky with the sun, moon and stars, you can get a glimpse of the past and present, the years..."
