Chapter 843: The Fourth Blasphemous Statue
On the vast land, there are majestic and majestic mountains and ridges, as if someone splashed ink on the rice paper, forming a vast landscape painting.
And among these mountains, there is one peak that is unique and majestic, dominating the other mountains.
That is the sacred mountain where Yanyue Xuantian lives.
It is like an ink pen between heaven and earth, sharp and straight, pointing straight to the sky
Countless white clouds shuttle under its feet, like Penglai Island, suspended in the sky
Under the sunlight, the rocks and trees on the mountain peak shine, making it even more majestic and brilliant.
In particular, the outline of the mountain is extremely clear against the sky. Whether it is viewed from a distance or up close, it gives people a strong shock.
Before he even got close, the overwhelming momentum rushed towards him.
It is obviously just a mountain, but it stands there, as if the sky is dim in front of it, as if this mountain can hold the sky under it if it is willing.
Even though Xu Qing has walked through many areas, this is the first time he has seen this kind of momentum.
It is the pinnacle of excellence, the pride that stands in the sky
There is even more golden light spreading in this sacred mountain. I don’t know whether it is contained in itself or whether it is rendered by the sun, spreading across the sky and covering the earth.
Xu Qing felt slightly and his eyes were deep. He felt that this golden light contained the power of the gods.
This power is also heterogeneous to a certain extent, but it is controllable. It seems to be tamed, wanders in all directions, and can be absorbed normally.
Xu Qing took a sip and turned into the power of cultivation in his body.
This scene made him a little moved
Team Chang was beside Xu Qing, looking at all this from a distance, with a trace of reminiscence in his expression, forming a sigh of relief: "Here we are again!"
In a small voice that only Xu Qing could hear, he whispered, "Let's go, little junior brother, go and see, this is the pinnacle of the Yanyue Xuantian Clan." Captain Chang patted Xu Qing's shoulder.
Xu Qing suppressed the turmoil in his heart and looked up at the more than 1,800 forbidden mountains above his head.
These forbidden mountains are rapidly shrinking as they approach the sacred mountain. At this moment, they are like black dots, surrounding their heads.
Although the change has become very small, the large number still makes Xu Qing's place very eye-catching.
"With such a quantity, it should be number one."
Xu Qing murmured in his heart, his body speed did not slow down, he turned into a rainbow and headed straight towards the mountains.
As it got closer, the sacred mountain became bigger and bigger in Xu Qing's eyes, and finally the end above could no longer be seen, and the feeling of being small arose spontaneously, and he couldn't control it.
Under the sacred mountain, three suspended cities are built
Each one is extremely vast and connected to each other by golden iron chains. A large amount of vegetation grows inside, showing the meaning of vicissitudes of life. The shape of these three cities is mainly round, which is the style of various ethnic groups in the Xuanyou Ancient Emperor era. The architectural style is now rare, even the human race does not retain much of it.
"This is the holy city of our Yanyue Xuantian clan, and its name is Tianyan City!"
Qiu Quezi, who was following Xu Qing and Team Chang, sounded a little excited. It was obvious that even he was not qualified to come here on weekdays.
"Only for big hunting and special ceremonies, this Tianyan City is open to the outside world and allows all ethnic groups to enter. I am lucky enough to have come here three times, and now this is the fourth time."
"Flying is not allowed in Tianyan City. Anyone who comes must have a pilgrim heart."
Qiu Quezi spoke in a low voice and introduced the rules of Tianyan City to Xu Qing and Team Chang. At the same time, the figures of the three of them also gradually approached one of the cities.
From a distance, it can be seen that the city is bustling with people and there are many monks. According to Qiu Quezi's introduction, most of these are outsiders. Most of the monks who are truly qualified to live in the holy city all year round are cultivators of the temple.
The arrival of Xu Qing and the others immediately attracted the attention of many monks in the city.
It’s really rare for humans to be found here.
Not to mention Xu Qing's current fame and the ban battle with Tuoshi Mountain, all of which made Xu Qing's arrival naturally attract attention.
In addition, the more than a thousand peaks above its head are also the focus of attention.
Xu Qing has become accustomed to this. As the figure landed in front of the city gate, his eyes shone brightly. He took a deep breath and stepped towards the gate in front.
The gate of the city is naturally not prepared for humans, so it is very high. The same is true for everything in the city. Walking here is like walking into a giant.
As for the monk Xu Qing here, after just a quick scan, he saw hundreds of different ethnic groups, with different shapes and strange shapes everywhere.
The monks of Yanyue Xuantian's clan, who are relatively rare in the outside world, are the mainstream here.
Most of their figures are clad in white cotton robes. Wherever they appear, they will arouse respect from all around.
That kind of aloof attitude does not require them to express it deliberately, it exists naturally.
"I hated this kind of gesture back then," Team Chang muttered.
Xu Qing did not speak, nor did he pay attention to the scrutinizing and hostile looks from all directions. He had more important things to do, and that was Jiaoshan.
You can go to the sacred mountain, where you can blend your own forbidden mountains and determine your ranking.
So he glanced at Qiu Quezi. Qiu Quezi followed him all the way. He had tried to figure out and observe many times. At this moment, he immediately understood the meaning of Xu Qing's gaze. He walked a few steps quickly and led the way.
In this way, with the gazes of the surrounding pedestrians gathering, Xu Qing and the other two people were walking in the holy city. Naturally, some gossips were inevitable during the process. Even halfway through, a monk from the Yanyue Xuantian Clan came out and directly challenged them on the street.
Obviously, Yan Yue was dissatisfied with the fact that the human race had obtained so many Forbidden Mountains in the first stage.
Regarding these, Xu Qing just glanced at them, and after confirming that there was no mountain above the opponent's head, he directly chose to ignore them.
After a few hours, as the rays of the setting sun fell in the distance, the sacred mountain appeared in front of Xu Qing and the others. Nine huge iron chains connected the city where they were and the sacred mountain.
Following the iron chain, you can see that at the other end of the sacred mountain is a vast square built of blue boulders. There are also three huge statues of gods there, representing the sun, moon and stars.
After the three statues, there is a staircase that extends to the invisible peak of the mountain.
"There are three roads to the sacred mountain, which can be reached from three cities, so there are also three sacred sites like the one in front," Qiu Quezi introduced in a low voice.
Xu Qing nodded. Standing at this end of the city, he looked away from the sacred mountain and looked under the iron chain. There was a bottomless abyss.
At this moment, the wind blew and the iron chains swayed. Xu Qing took the first step, stepped on one, and headed straight to the sacred mountain.
Team Chang thought for a while and chose the same option as Xu Qing.
Qiu Quezi was stunned for a moment, and simply chose this one. Soon the three figures followed the iron chain and walked the entire distance in the roar of the mountain wind.
There were no obstacles on the road until he stepped out of the iron chain. When he stood in the Shenshan Square, the statues of the three gods standing here became more and more clear to Xu Qing's eyes!
The first one is the God of Sun Flame. His appearance is indistinguishable from male to female. His body looks like a woman, but his face has the appearance of a man. The sun is rising behind him, and countless ethnic groups and evil ghosts are looking down at him. His eyes are also closed.
The second statue is familiar to Xu Qing, the Goddess of the First Moon Flame, but she in the sculpture actually gives people a sense of astonishment, but her expression is cold, like an iceberg, which is different from the appearance of Chi Mu in Xu Qing's memory. There is a moon ring behind it, forming a cool moonlight, which shines on the divine body, making it divine!
As for the third statue, Xu Qing was more familiar with it. It was a clay fox. Stars were shining behind him, and his whole body exuded charm. It was difficult to look away when people took one look at it. But the thing that attracted Xu Qing's attention the most was not This statue of three gods is the fourth statue.
It was a faceless sculpture, kneeling down right in front of the statue of the Moon Flame Lord. It was covered in whip marks, riddled with holes, and had countless sharp blades inserted into it.
From the looks of it, it seems that he is hated to the core by the God of Fire, and will be punished to kneel here and suffer humiliation for eternity.
Looking at this statue, Team Chang blinked, and Qiu Quezi on the side noticed that Xu Qing's eyes fell on the fourth statue, so he quickly spoke in a low voice.
"This statue has a mysterious origin. It existed a long time ago. It is called a blasphemer by our people. Legend has it that he blasphemed the Lord Yueyan and committed a heinous crime. He was so heinous that he was killed by the Lord Sunyan personally. Then he His body was transformed into three parts and he knelt in front of the statues in the three sacred places."
“Set as a warning to others!”
"Especially the Moon Flame Temple. I heard that there is a description of this matter in their teachings. There is even a festival in the Moon Flame Temple that specifically spurns those who blaspheme the gods."
Xu Qing was silent and glanced at Team Chang!
Team Chang's expression remained as usual, without any change. He even pretended to be listening carefully. He noticed Xu Qing's gaze and curiously looked at the fourth statue kneeling there.
Naturally, Qiu Quezi couldn't understand what Xu Qinghe was thinking at the moment, so he followed the previous introduction and said, "By the way, there is another rule for the sacred mountain and the three holy cities."
"Cows are not allowed to appear. This is a taboo. I don't know why there is such a rule. But as long as they appear, they will die miserably. Even some ethnic groups related to cattle have been almost wiped out by the Moon Flame Temple in recent years! "
Xu Qing looked at Team Chang again. Team Chang was shameless and continued to be curious. Qiu Quezi spoke again.
"Also, those with the word "ox" in their names are taboo here and cannot be known to others. By the way, fellow Taoists, you don't have the word "ox" in your names, right?"
Along the way, he knew that Xu Qing was Xu Qing, but he didn't know much about Chen Erniu. He only knew that he was Xu Qing's senior brother.
Xu Qing shook his head and looked at Team Chang again. Team Chang coughed and shook his head quickly. Qiu Quezi didn't think much and was about to continue talking.
"besides"
Seeing this, Team Chang couldn't pretend anymore and glared at Qiu Quezi, "Okay, hurry up and lead the way. Why are you talking so much nonsense!"
