The Grand Void – Becoming a Dragon

The next day, early morning.

Zhuang Ming, Chief Yan, and a three-foot-tall black-scaled tiger left the tribe.

This fierce tiger is three feet high, and its back is quite spacious. With the protection of mana, it is like a flat ground.

Zhuang Ming and Chief Yan sat on it, chatting with the tigers on their way.

The black-scaled divine tiger felt quite humiliated. When it was a one-horned liger, it had never experienced such humiliation. But after being promoted, it was actually ridden on its back... If it was just that young man, it would be fine, but the hand The guy holding the bone bow is also worthy of riding on his back?

The Black-scaled Divine Tiger was thinking like this, thinking to himself, if this young man leaves, it will sooner or later eat up this guy called Chief Yan.

"How much does Chief Yan know about the grand festival of worshiping the gods in Jieshi City?"

"This is a grand event in my grandfather's generation, and it has been more than a hundred years."

"More than a hundred years..." Zhuang Ming thought in his heart. For ordinary people, more than a hundred years is already several generations apart, but for practitioners, it seems like yesterday. The 60,000 years, these more than a hundred years are only a few days.

"Jieshi City is more than two hundred years old." Leader Yan said: "It used to be a powerful tribe, surrounded by stones, and built the most unbreakable place in the stargazing field. Two hundred years ago, their powerful leader seemed to break through When they reached the legendary Zhenxuan Realm, they expanded their tribes... The interior of their tribe is in the center, and the outside is built with stones to accommodate outsiders to trade and exchange things. Over time, it is called Jieshi City, and their leader, who calls himself Castellan."

"Then what about this god worship ceremony?" Zhuang Ming asked.

"I heard that more than a hundred years ago, there were natural disasters and man-made disasters, lack of food, and many people died. Later, a small tribe dug out a stone statue under the ground, with a wolf head and a human body, lifelike." Leader Yan was a little envious, and said: " Since then, that small tribe, the surrounding vegetation has grown very well, produced a lot of fruit, and fed a lot of people... Later, for some reason, the owner of Jieshi City went to that tribe in person, and used 10,000 cattle and sheep, The stone statue was replaced and placed in Jieshi City."

"What happened next?" Zhuang Ming asked again.

"Later, every person who came to Jieshi City would worship the god statue." Chief Yan said: "Jieshi City is currently one of the three most powerful tribes in the Stargazing Domain, and the entire Stargazing Domain, whoever belongs to the Jieshicheng faction The tribes within the range all have to make offerings to Jieshi City... We also want to, but our tribe has few people, so we donate less, and we only need to hand over some animal skins when we go there in exchange for food."

"Worshiping the idol, what's the point?" Zhuang Ming asked again.

"There's nothing particular about it." Leader Yan said, "It's just that every ten days, each tribe sends people to worship, but every six months, a man and a woman in the tribe must be sacrificed to ensure the tribe's harvest."

"A man and a woman?" Zhuang Ming asked, "How do you present this man and a woman?"

"Burn it on fire." Leader Yan said in a low voice: "After being burned to death, the ashes are placed in the furnace. When everyone offers incense, put incense in the ashes."

"Where's your tribe?" Zhuang Ming asked again.

"The last time it was our tribe's turn was more than ten years ago." Chief Yan sighed and said, "At that time, we also sent a man and a woman there, in exchange for the stability of the tribe."

"..."

Zhuang Ming didn't say any more, but he had already made up his mind.

This is an evil god!

——

Jieshicheng.

The city lord who was promoted to the Zhenxuan level two hundred years ago has now reached the seventh level of Zhenxuan, which is also the level of the desperate Zhenxuan.

Such a quick gain is considered rare in the thirty-six domains of the spirit world.

"Master."

The city lord saluted and said: "Today, it's Yunqianbu's turn to pay respects. One of their men and one woman has already been delivered. In three hours, the grand meeting will begin."

In front of him was a stone statue with a wolf's head and a human body, about ten feet tall, lifelike.

And at this moment, the eyes of the stone statue shone with light.

"It's been two hundred years, and Jieshi City has occupied less than 40% of the small territory of the Star Gazing Region."

The god statue said in a low voice: "I taught you the secret method for the teacher, so that you can advance to the true mystery. After two hundred years, you have reached the level of the ultimate true mystery, but you still can't control the entire stargazing field..."

The owner of Jieshi City hurriedly said in a low voice: "In these years, Jieshi City has grown stronger and stronger. Originally, the three families were equally divided, but now Jieshi City is at its peak, and the other two families are likely to join forces to fight against each other. But master, there is no need to worry. With proper preparations, within three years, the Black Village will be wiped out, and within ten years, all the tribes in the Guanxing Region will be taken under Jieshi City, and they will all come to worship the priest."

The idol's eyes narrowed, and he said again: "The Falling Spirit Realm, have you checked?"

City Lord Jieshi said: "I have ordered people to investigate, but found nothing. There is only a dead place there, and it is still a dead place now. How can there be any movement?"

The god statue said: "Before I fell into the spirit realm, there seemed to be some movement. It seems that the teacher was too cautious. Anyway, the dead land will not affect this place."

——

Jieshi outside the city.

Zhuang Ming saw a city built of stones from a distance.

This city is full of primitive desolation.

Two hundred years ago, these tribes in the stargazing field did not know what "city" represented.

For them, the so-called Jieshi City is just another name for the Jieshi tribe.

So... this largest tribe was only a tribe at the beginning, when did it start to have the idea of ​​a "city"?

"According to Chief Yan, the tribes in the stargazing domain have always been between expansion and extinction... The powerful tribes will conquer the weak tribes, plunder their food, plunder their women, plunder their children, kill their young and strong and their sick and old."

"However, the strength of this tribe did not kill. Instead, it made all the tribes surrender on the surface, allowing them to come here to trade and collect their fees."

"From primitive and savage to civilized."

"Such a change, is it because the Lord Jieshi has thoughts beyond this era? Or has he seen a more exciting world? Or... what kind of existence is behind him?"

Zhuang Ming thought like this.

If there is an existence behind Jieshi City Lord, which promoted the establishment of Jieshi City, then it is very likely that it is this worshiped god statue.

But according to Leader Yan, this statue was discovered in another small tribe after the establishment of Jieshi City, and it was later obtained by the owner of Jieshi City in exchange, rather than by force.

"It was originally in Jieshi City, but it was deliberately placed in an outside tribe, and then used a louder way to welcome back."

"Is this...a campaign?"
