Chapter 265 Jiuli Emperor, Promotion Ceremony
Under the guidance of Qiangwei, Bai Zhi did not have to forcefully break through the barrier like before, but entered the temple as a guest.
When the spiritual officials in those temples saw Bai Zhi, they all froze in place as if they had seen gods.
If I had known earlier, I should have wrapped myself up tightly, or knitted a mask before coming here... Bai Zhi couldn't help but frowned nicely.
Perhaps sensing Bai Zhi's emotional change, Qiangwei's face darkened and she shouted to the onlookers:
"Do what you have to do!"
All the congregants immediately lowered their heads and remained silent.
Bai Zhi moved across the front hall and successfully saw the tall statue of "Jiuli Emperor", or "Jiuli Tianzun".
To be honest, it is far from the image of a true god that Bai Zhi expected.
Although His overall temperament is firm and unfathomable,
But his appearance is no different from an ordinary middle-aged man in ancient times - wearing coarse linen clothes, long hair hanging behind his head, holding a thick wooden scepter in one hand, his facial features are like sculptures, and there is no expression. .
Bai Zhi looked towards the base of the statue and saw two lines of ancient mantras engraved on it:
【Praise you! The guide of the Jiuli tribe and the notary of the demon control contract;
The gatekeeper of the human world, the supreme Emperor Jiuli! 】
…
"Are you going to be promoted again so soon?"
Above the brilliance of the rainbow, the white deer, which was taller than a human, said slightly in surprise.
"No, I'm just curious about that realm after experiencing the battle with the divine envoy."
Bai Zhi secretly said with shame:
"I accidentally learned that promotion to that level must accommodate divinity in similar fields. It should be very different from the promotion of previous realms, so I thought of coming to seek help from Your Excellency."
"I hope you can teach me something."
After visiting the temple dedicated to the "Emperor Jiuli" accompanied by Qiangwei, Bai Zhi went to the top of Qiu Mountain and found the Jiugong Luling in front of the Xuantian Waterfall, seeking the secret of the way to promotion.
"Blood Moon Witch" refused to tell her easily, so she thought of Jiugong Deerling, the mysterious and well-known "Sacred Artifact of Jiuli Sect".
Jiugong Luling glanced at Bai Zhi and said in an ethereal voice:
"To be promoted to a 'demigod', if there is no divine inspiration in a similar field, you can only condense your divinity through your own promotion ceremony..."
"Demigod-level creatures are divided into lower, middle and upper classes according to the number, authority and degree of use of divinity they can accommodate..."
So far, the "demigod" knowledge described by Jiugong Luling is basically consistent with what the "Blood Moon Witch" told Bai Zhi.
Until Lu Ling said: "But with your specialness, there is actually a dangerous way to become a 'demigod'."
"What method?" Bai Zhi had some vague guesses in his mind.
"Hunting demigods in fields similar to yours." Jiugong Luling said slowly:
"But the danger is that divinity is different from spiritual essence, and you may not be able to perfectly capture and absorb it - even divinity in a similar field."
"Moreover, if they come from some terrifying and powerful gods, then when you try to accommodate them, you may be directly attacked or counterattacked by the gods... No, this is not a possibility, but a necessity."
Fortunately, I was careful not to even touch the divinity of the King of Virtual Reality... Bai Zhi thought to himself.
At the end, Jiugong Luling said:
"In addition, judging from the current situation of this planet, it is still very difficult to find such suitable hunting targets."
Bai Zhi also knew in his heart that the number of legendary creatures was very small, and "Star Walkers" were equivalent to "they only come out after a thousand calls", let alone those similar to his own field...
Even if such a being is found, it is still unknown whether it can be successfully defeated, and the factors of human official interference must also be considered.
"Let's talk about how to hold the ceremony..." Bai Zhi said with shame.
Jiugong Luling paused and gave the content of the ceremony:
"The procedure is not complicated. You only need to obtain enough spiritual essence in the ruins of a demigod or above, and complete the transformation there. Then it is possible to condense divinity."
Hearing this, Bai Zhi murmured:
"Is it just possible... Sure enough, there is no 100% way to condense divinity..."
Jiugong Luling explained:
"If you don't follow the ritual requirements, it's indeed almost impossible to succeed in promotion."
"Because this planet, and even the entire galaxy, are blocked by a barrier composed of powerful forces. This is why gods who want to interfere with human reality are subject to many restrictions."
"So the ritual requirements are caused by the special environment on this planet. They are also applicable to all monsters in the 'Demon King' realm who are promoted to 'demigods'."
Bai Zhi asked suspiciously: "Then why are the ruins you mentioned a necessary place for the promotion ceremony?"
The first time she heard the word "relic" was when, as a spider, she was given a storage bracelet by Yang Shining as a favor.
Jiugong Luling turned into a white light and jumped off the Rainbow Bridge, standing not far from Bai Zhi:
"Demigod means that you have officially entered the path of God, taking the first step towards the forbidden realm of gods, and surpassing most extraordinary creatures."
"Promoting to 'demigod' also means stealing the power of the gods as inferior beings. Where does the power of the gods come from? In secret legends, it is called the 'God Realm'."
"The God Realm is not as simple as the residence of the gods as ordinary people understand it. Although I don't know what is in the God Realm, there is no doubt that the promotion ceremony must communicate with the God Realm and condense the divinity with the help of the God Realm."
Communicating with the God Realm... just like I improve the awakening progress of my talent 'Mysterious Forbidden Realm' and strengthen my spiritual power by communicating with the spirit world... Bai Zhi immediately thought of it.
"And in this world, only the ruins of demigods or above are the places most closely connected to the God Realm, so it becomes a necessary place for the promotion ceremony."
Is this the secret that the Blood Moon Witch refused to tell me and had to lure me into the bedroom before she was willing to share it... Bai Zhi sorted out the information he had obtained in a daze, holding his chin with his thumb and index finger and fell into deep thought.
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration came to her mind, and she looked up at the deer spirit:
"The ritual you mentioned is still too vague and too broad. There should be some more specific ritual content that can increase the success rate of condensing divinity."
The Jiugong Lu Ling with two pairs of antlers on his head nodded calmly and said:
"There are indeed some other ways to make it easier to condense divinity. Every creature can add some ritual content according to its own situation. Among them, a relatively universal and very useful rule is-"
"In the promotion ceremony, make yourself more like a god."
At this time, the Jiugong Lu Ling looked at Bai Zhi with a secretive look:
"For example, a moderate number of followers, a large number of followers and believers, more fear and worship..."
