Tianyu Alchemy Lord
Chapter 1,630 The Man in the Portrait
When Su Chen recalled the previous battle with She Yang, he had to lament the domineering power of the "Huan" sword technique. A half-finished sword art with the word "phantom" that has not been completed yet has such power that it can allow me, who is at the eighth level of the life and death realm, to leapfrog and challenge She Yang, who is at the second level of the Netherworld Realm.
It is conceivable that after thoroughly practicing the "Huan" sword art, his combat power will be completely upgraded to a new level.
"Now there is only one opportunity left for my cultivation to be promoted to the ninth level of the life and death realm. If I reach the ninth level of the life and death realm, I will be confident that I can fight head-on with Yang Duo, who is at the peak of the third level of Xunyou Realm."
Although Su Chen did not dare to say that he was sure of victory, at least there was hope for a head-on battle.
Su Chen now also needs this battle with Yang Duo so that he, an "outsider", can gain a foothold in Danyun Peak.
Therefore, he must now do his best to prepare for this battle.
"We must find opportunities for breakthrough as soon as possible."
Su Chen said secretly in his heart.
…
After paying homage to the victims, everyone set off to the ancestral temple.
The She Family Ancestral Temple is located in the Nan She Mansion. It is a magnificent building with antique flavor. It must have been very glorious when it was first built.
However, the current ancestral temple looks a bit dilapidated. The corners are covered with spider webs. Many places are in disrepair. The paint on the pillars has fallen off and looks shabby.
The portraits of the ancestors placed in the ancestral temple were covered with dust and their original appearance could not be seen.
"yawn!"
The group of people were so aroused by the dust in the ancestral temple that they started to sneeze. Yan Maner fanned the dust away from her eyes and said angrily, "The Nanshe family didn't even repair the ancestral temple. They are simply unfilial descendants!"
"That's to be expected."
She Qiang gave a wry smile. If the Nan She family were filial to their descendants, they would not have ignored the ancestral teachings and insisted on forcibly practicing the secret method of blood sacrifice, which was harmful to people.
Several senior officials of the Beishe family began to clean out the ancestral temple. Since a large number of ordinary tribesmen and servants of the Bei She family were killed, work such as cleaning the house had to be done by the senior officials themselves.
She Qiang stared at the cleaned ancestral portraits and personally lit three sticks of incense in front of each ancestral portrait.
Afterwards, She Qiang took out the spirit stones and placed them in various corners of the ancestral hall. The positions of all the spirit stones formed a formation, marking the start of the formation in the ancestral hall.
This is what is called ancestor worship.
She Qiang knelt in front of the ancestral portrait in the middle, muttering something to himself.
Just by looking at his appearance, one would have thought he was chanting a spell or something like that. However, if you listen carefully, you will find that he was just describing the various grievances between the Bei She family and the Nan She family, including the fact that the Bei She family was almost wiped out by the Nan She family a few days ago.
The other senior members of the Bei She family also knelt with She Qiang in front of the portraits of their ancestors.
Only Su Chen and the other three, because they were not from the She family, stood at the door of the ancestral temple and watched this scene.
Su Chen's eyes swept across the portraits of the She family's ancestors in the ancestral temple, and his eyes fell on the middle portrait. He always had a strange feeling that the portrait looked familiar.
However, Su Chen knew that it was impossible for him to know this ancestor of the She family, so he didn't care at the moment.
"Huhu..."
As the sacrifice progressed, the wind blew suddenly in the ancestral hall, blowing the curtains in the ancestral hall and the flames of the incense candles in front of the portraits were also blown by the wind.
"It's the ancestors who showed up!"
Everyone in the Bei She family in the ancestral hall shouted in low voices.
At the same time, pairs of eyes also looked at the incense candles.
There is a trace of the remnant soul of the ancestors left in the portrait, and the formation in the ancestral hall is a ritual to awaken the remnant soul.
At this moment, if the incense candle flame goes out, it means that the ancestors do not agree with their return to the She family's ancestral home. And if it's the other way around, it means that the ancestors agreed to let them return to the She family's ancestral home.
And they must abide by the wishes of their ancestors. Therefore, at this moment, they are also very nervous in their hearts.
Whoops!
The wind in the ancestral hall became stronger and stronger, but none of the flames of the incense candles were extinguished.
Just as everyone in the Bei She family stared at the incense candles with wide eyes, suddenly, a gust of wind blew up a leaf in the ancestral hall and fell on Su Chen's shoulder at the entrance of the ancestral hall.
Suddenly, a picture suddenly appeared in Su Chen's mind.
In this picture, a vague figure is sitting on a rock, looking towards the sky, muttering to himself.
“Who am I, where did I come from, and where am I going?”
The figure kept repeating these words.
If ordinary people listened to these three repeated questions, they would definitely feel a little confused.
After all, the world is really too big. All living beings, this life and past lives, their fate and destiny... Many things become more complex the more we think about them.
