Longevity begins with slaying demons and eliminating demons

Gu Xu nodded to Chongli, thanking him for the notification.

Then he followed the call in the sea of ​​consciousness, walked through the long and narrow passage between the pyre, and walked towards the altar.

The prayers of Vulcan believers echoed in the cool breeze outside the tower, and they also lingered in his heart.

The true essence in his body surged like a tsunami.

The temperature in the temple rose sharply, causing Chong Li and the other priests to sweat profusely.

The next moment, a bright and bright flame ignited on the pyre.

At first it was just a dim light of fire, but as Gu Xu got closer to the altar, these flames burned more and more vigorously, and soon jumped to the ceiling, even the masonry of the tower could not stop it, drilled through the window went outdoors.

They were like a group of revelry dancers, wearing red, orange and yellow veils, revolving and singing around Gu Xu, sometimes twisting, sometimes circling, competing with each other and climbing.Glowing ashes also rose from the smoke screen, like thousands of newborn fireflies.

Seeing this scene, the people who were prostrate and praying in the square outside the house opened their eyes instantly, and then their faces showed joy. Manifestation.

Chong Li was even more shocked.

After all, a moment ago, he also swore that this strange guest brought by Zhao Yan had nothing to do with "Vulcan" and could not cause a reaction from the pyre.

However, the situation in front of him clearly hit him in the face.

The vision that Gu Xu caused in the temple was bigger and more spectacular than any of the Zhao family disciples.

"Your Excellency Chong Li, what's going on?" Beside him, a young priest asked cautiously while wiping his sweat.

Chong Li took a deep breath.

In order to maintain his majesty as a high priest, he did not directly say "I don't know", but tried to maintain an unfathomable expression and said in a mysterious tone:

"God's mind cannot be misunderstood."

But the scene that surprised him even more was yet to come.

When Gu Xu walked to the altar and reached out to touch the altar, those flames that flapped their wings like giant beasts and roared and roared, immediately quieted down and bowed their heads obediently in front of him.

Indistinctly, the high priest Chong Li seemed to catch a glimpse of the flame giants kneeling humbly in front of the masked young man and swearing allegiance to him.

Immediately afterwards, Chong Li felt that in the depths of his soul, there seemed to be an invisible shackle "Katha" cracked into silent fragments.His power that had been stagnant for many years suddenly broke through the bottleneck and increased as rapidly as a volcanic eruption.

The cultivation system of Dahuang is generally unified, but from the perspective of specific cultivation methods, there are many different ways.

One of the methods is to enter the temple of a certain god, become a priest or monk serving the god, and practice under the guidance of the god.

The advantage of this method is that because the gods have already paved the way, monks don't need to work hard to comprehend the profound meaning of the Dao.Under the care of gods, they are often able to quickly grasp some difficult and incomprehensible knowledge in the way of "sudden enlightenment", and even the speed of cultivation will be accelerated a lot.

But this approach also has flaws.One is that you cannot enter the realm of saints and above for life; the other is that you must abide by the strict rules set by the gods. For example, monks in Lingshan Temple are not allowed to eat meat and fish, monks who serve the gods are not allowed to marry, and priests in the Fire Temple must perform the killing on schedule and according to the amount. The duty of ghosts, etc. The third is that the monks and the gods will be both prosperous and lost. When the power of the gods is weakened, the strength of the monks will also decline.

Like the predecessors in the Fire Temple, Chongli also chose this method of cultivation from the moment he became a priest.

But over the years, he felt that he did not seem to have any special advantages compared with ordinary monks.His cultivation speed was mediocre, and he did not receive preferential treatment from Vulcan.

until this moment.

His bewildered heart seemed to be suddenly opened by a window, and the sunlight came in from outside, making his soul transparent and bright, and he suddenly understood a lot of knowledge that had been confusing for a long time.

"I'm going to break through!"

At the same time, the young priest beside Chong Li suddenly exclaimed, then immediately sat cross-legged on the ground and stuffed a prepared medicinal pill into his mouth.

Within a few seconds, his breath rose steadily.The threshold of the second realm had hindered him like a moat for three years, but now he stepped over it effortlessly.

Not just the two of them.

Almost all Vulcan priests' cultivation bases have been greatly improved at this moment.

"Who the hell is this young man wearing a mask?" High Priest Chongli looked at Gu Xu's figure and muttered to himself, "Even Her Royal Highness, the reincarnated saint, can't do such a thing. ... This is an authority that can only be possessed by a god...

"Is it possible that he is the messenger sent by the great Vulcan to rescue us? Or the incarnation of Vulcan walking in the world?"

Thinking of this, Chong Li stepped forward in a hurry, then kneeled on his knees respectfully in front of Gu Xu, his forehead touching the dust at Gu Xu's feet.

"My lord, I was blind and didn't notice your identity in time," Chongli said in a reverent tone, "I represent all the priests of the Fire Temple, and I welcome your lord to Jicheng."

Seeing the high priest's attitude towards Gu Xu so humble, the other priests present did not dare to be slighted.

They glanced at each other and bowed down to where Gu Xu was.

At this time, Gu Xu was still immersed in the world of consciousness and did not notice the actions of the priests.

The moment his fingertips touched the Dao altar, he clearly felt that an invisible chain suddenly appeared, linking the "Hui Lu" rune in his sea of ​​consciousness and the "Vulcan" sculpture into a unified one. overall.

The statue of Vulcan has stood here for hundreds of thousands of years, and has been worshipped by generations of believers, and has already accumulated a terrifying amount of faith.

And now, these powers poured into Gu Xu's body following this invisible power.

"It turns out that this is the chance that 'Astrology' told me." Gu Xu thought silently in his heart.

It stands to reason that with these strengths, he can directly walk through "Mengpoting", enter the fifth realm, and even instantly advance to the middle or late stage of the fifth realm.

But since he hasn't found a satisfactory way to break through the realm, he doesn't plan to use the simple and rude "Zhan Qiqing".

So he stored the excess power in the "Hui Lu" rune, intending to wait until the mirror was broken before using it.

In addition, through the Vulcan Altar, he noticed countless fiery red light spots hidden in the void in all directions.

Intuition told him that each light point represented a Vulcan believer.

The light spot of ordinary believers is dim and difficult to detect.

The brighter ones are the priests of the Fire Temple and members of the Zhao family with special blood.

And the most dazzling among them is Zhao Yan's light spot.

Like a flaming phoenix, it stretches its wings and sings loudly.
