Chapter 714: Return to Yao Mountain
Translator: LawEditor: Hitesh
Ji Hao stayed in Pu Ban City while forcibly restraining his anger from bursting. After preparing for a few days, a great ceremony was started in dawn. This ceremony was held especially for Pan Xi world people.
Pan Xi world was being devoured by Pan Gu world, and Pan Xi world people would become defendants of the humankind. This wasn't easy enough to be decided by a simply verbal stipulation. Dependent clans growing stronger and suppressing their suzerain, such things happened all the time in large clans in Pan Gu world. Complicated contentions for powers and profits had always been existing among human beings, not to mention these newcomers from Pan Xi world. Pan Xi world would soon be destroyed, because of which, Pan Xi world people now seemed to be obediently seeking refuge with the humankind as they had no other choice. But who could guarantee that they would stay obedient in the future?
An enormous five-colored altar stood in Pu Ban City. This altar was built with earth that came from the Midland and the four Wastelands, mixed with fine powders ground from top-grade jades. By now, the altar had been glowing with a faint five colored light while releasing a strong sense of power.
As the representative of people who had made a great contribution in the life-and-death game, and one of the first batch which returned from Pan Xi world, Ji Hao now served as the protocol officer of this ceremony. He guided Elder Destiny and a whole hundred ancestor souls, who were the strongest among all, and came before the altar with solemn faces.
Emperor Shun stood on the altar, surrounded by the dim five-colored light.
On the altar, a fire was blazing ragingly, and high up in the air, dense clouds had been rolling. Ji Hao raised his head and glanced at Emperor Shun who stood on top of the altar. Somehow, Ji Hao sensed a formidable and incredibly strong natural power from the body of Emperor Shun. At this very moment, Emperor Shun was the spokesperson of this world.
Tens of thousands of master Maguspriests that came from all large clans surrounded the altar, and had been dancing and singing, paying tribute to the world itself. Countless battle flags floated in the sky, slightly fluttering in the dawn breeze.
Elder Destiny followed closely after Ji Hao, solemnly observing those master Maguspriests, who had already fallen into a fanatical state. Elder Destiny had an especially sharp spiritual sensitivity. Even though his power had been suppressed by Pan Gu world and decreased by over fifty percent, he could still sense some indescribable, magical spiritual power descending on these master Maguspriests
Prehistorical, strong, original and chaotic, this magical spiritual power was like the world itself, existing eternally, and being incomparably powerful. As an elder who possessed the highest position in Pan Xi world and someone who could manipulate the power of destiny and look into the future, Elder Destiny had sensed the original power of Pan Xi world countless times. Nevertheless, comparing the original power of Pan Xi world with the magical spiritual power descending to those master Maguspriests was just like comparing a brook with a vast ocean. The difference was way too huge to be accepted by Elder Destiny.
Pan Gu world was such a powerful world!
Elder Destiny sighed slightly. Afterward, under Ji Hao’s guidance, he and the hundred ancestor souls behind him respectfully and cautiously performed every step of the ceremony.
The ceremony lasted till noon. Not to mention the other complicated rituals in this ceremony, a million beasts and a large number of dark-kind and non-humankind slaves were slaughtered merely as offerings to Gods, ghosts and all mysterious beings in this world.
At last, Elder Destiny and the group of ancestor souls kneeled under the altar, cut open the spots between their eyebrows with black jade dagger and let the blood flow on their faces while swearing to pledge loyalty to the humankind generation after generation.
The bright sky of noon dimmed down suddenly, and stars began sparkling with a splendid light. Soon, the sun rose again and lightened the sky back up.
