Chapter 1 Others Invite Gods, I Invite Ghosts
On March 1, the annual awakening ceremony was in full swing at the Longguo Guangcheng No. 2 Middle School Stadium.
As in previous years, all senior high school students who are over 18 years old must do their best to get the best results in this ceremony.
After all, one step forward is a bright future.
Liu Mang from Class 4 of Senior 3 was sitting in the waiting area of the audience seats, and like most of his classmates, his eyes were fixed on the grass below.
In order to welcome such an extremely important day as today, the Municipal Education Bureau sent a team, and after more than a week of hard work with the teachers and staff of No. 2 Middle School, they finally temporarily closed the entire stadium and set up tents.
The largest tent in the middle contained the spiritual altar that was indispensable for the awakening ceremony.
At this time, Liu Mang heard the radio calling his name, and he quickly got up, walked down the stairs from the waiting area to the queue below, and stood silently at the last place.
In front of him, there were more than a dozen people, and their faces were more or less tense and solemn.
Liu Mang realized that his heartbeat was gradually speeding up, and his nostrils were hot, so he took a few deep breaths.
What was coming was coming, and Liu Mang knew that being nervous would not help.
However, compared with others, he was actually more confident about this wonderful awakening ceremony.
It is said that hundreds of years ago, the spiritual energy began to revive, and foreign races invaded in large numbers, and the blue planet ushered in an unprecedented crisis.
But under the crisis, there is also endless vitality. Through exploration and repeated experiments, humans finally discovered that they can use special awakening ceremonies to use a large amount of spiritual energy to open up the ancient and modern time and space tunnels, awaken the gods to possess and fight.
Thus, the magical profession of the spirit master was born.
The spirit master can summon the gods and share life and death.
However, the Dragon Kingdom, which once had a rich and long mythological heritage, inexplicably lost in this era competition that should have won at the starting line.
The reason is mainly due to the lack of historical materials and documents, which led to many young people of the right age failing to awaken successfully.
Even if they awaken, they rarely awaken powerful gods.
However, Liu Mang has an innate advantage that others cannot match in this situation.
18 years ago, he came here and became a cradle.
After he grew up, he found that many memories began to emerge in his mind, and then he gradually realized that he was an outsider who came from Earth.
When he learned that Blue Star had a unique cultivation system, he immediately understood that his life would begin with this awakening ceremony.
At the moment, Liu Mang waited patiently, reviewing the previously prepared god information over and over again in his mind.
Today, he will soar into the sky.
At this moment, the awakening results of many classmates in front of him are mostly unsatisfactory.
On the big screen, lines of information indicate that everyone's future life trajectory will undergo a huge change from today.
"Zhang Bingkun, awakening failed."
"Li Mengxue, green aura array, possessed by the spirit of the land god, awakened successfully."
"Chen Miao, white aura array, possessed by the spirit of the spider spirit, awakened successfully."
"Anton Xuan, awakening failed."
...
The failure rate is as high as 50%.
Even if the awakening is successful, most of them are only white and green aura arrays.
The aura array is divided into seven levels, white, green, blue, purple, orange, red and black.
White and green are usually cannon fodder on the battlefield.
About 15 minutes later, it was finally Liu Mang's turn to enter the main tent.
Wang Hongmin, the head teacher who was waiting at the door of the tent, saw Liu Mang coming forward and squeezed out a smile to encourage: "Don't be nervous, keep calm, it's no big deal. Just try to integrate the knowledge taught in class, give full play to it, and leave no regrets."
"I know."
Liu Mang responded and strode into the tent.
In front of him, there was a row of bright chandeliers above his head, and there were many people and instruments on both sides.
In front of the computer screen, someone said to the microphone: "Liu Mang from Class 4, Senior 3, right? Stand on the aura altar and follow the seven steps of awakening taught by the school."
Liu Mang nodded, walked to a protrusion in the center, and stood on it without hesitation.
As the instrument started, he soon felt that the entire altar was surging with vast energy.
"Is this the so-called aura?"
Liu Mang was a little surprised. This was the first time in his life that he had really come into contact with aura.
After all, as an ordinary person, aura is a rare strategic resource that is rarely accessible.
Liu Mang knew that time was running out, so he didn't dare to delay. He raised his right hand and extended his index finger.
Seeing that aura was already lingering around his fingertips, he realized that he could officially start.
According to the school's teachings, the so-called awakening ceremony is actually a wonderful journey to awaken the possession of gods.
It includes seven steps in total, singing, drawing, base, qualitative, attaching scenery, dotting, and awakening.
These seven steps are easy to say but very difficult to do.
The main reason is that the mythological inheritance is too severe, and most of the existing ones are controlled by powerful families and passed on as private inheritance, so that ordinary people have no chance to touch them, let alone awaken them!
Liu Mang has begun to use the spiritual energy of his fingertips to draw the patterns.
Not in the five elements, jumping out of yin and yang, what you see is what you draw, and what you draw is what you get.
First, he has to draw the first step, which is to sing the name.
What is singing the name?
In simple terms, it is the right of the spirit master to name the summoned spirit, and this name must be accurate to the spirit. If one character is wrong, even if the font is very similar, such as "戍" is written as "戌", the result will be very different.
Not only will the awakening fail, but the individual will even suffer serious damage.
As we all know, the current gods have been roughly divided into four races, namely the gods, the Buddhas, the demons, and the ghosts.
Among them, the first three races are the most popular, and the ghosts are the smallest and unpopular.
Most people hope to invite heavenly soldiers and generals from the heaven, or invite Buddha from the west to protect their bodies. At worst, the big monsters in the demon world are also very good.
Everyone wants to invite the Three Pure Ones, the Emperor of Heaven, the Buddha, the Twelve Ancestral Witches...
However, such a big shot requires accurate and rich and detailed information, otherwise it is not easy to invite.
As a second choice, everyone can only start with other slightly inferior gods, such as the four divine beasts, Bodhisattva Vajra, the six imperial five elders, the four heavenly kings...
As a result, there are more and more spirit masters of these three races. After they awaken successfully, they compete for resources and have long been fighting in a red sea.
Liu Mang decided not to join the fight between these people. He wanted to find another way.
Others invite gods, I invite ghosts!
The spiritual energy on his fingertips finally outlined the four big characters one by one, and they were natural.
Liu Mang wrote every stroke very carefully. He wanted to make sure there were no typos, especially the first word, which was particularly difficult to write.
"Emperor Fengdu!"
