The competition for the Holy Son of Tianyuan had actually been going on for a long time before the festival began, and now only the final three candidates are left, and they are about to have the final showdown on the podium.
How could believers not be envious of such an honor?
And in the higher Chengtian Tower, Saint Hong Yingxue was gazing at the platform below, the veil on her face obscuring the emotions in her eyes.
Today, she was dressed in an exceptionally holy and gorgeous manner, and just looking at her made people feel reluctant to desecrate her.
But this beauty is empty, like a puppet without a soul, just a flawless work of art.
Behind him, many priests were carving mysterious inscriptions on the ground, making final preparations for the grand ceremony.
Chapter 333: Judgment of God’s Sins
The inscriptions carved by the priests are all mysterious and complex, difficult to understand. They have a sacred and majestic aura. They have similarities with Taoist patterns, but also have many subtle differences.
After each inscription is completed, it will flicker, appearing and disappearing, emitting a heart-pounding throbbing and light.
These inscriptions are divine language.
It is a rune passed down by the gods through the mouth of the saint. It can naturally communicate the power of the gods and is also one of the most important preparations for this great sacrifice to the gods.
At first glance, you can't see anything, but as long as your mind is immersed in it, you will immediately feel the greatness and vastness of the gods, which makes you intoxicated.
On both sides of the stairs leading to the high altar, there are many precious and rare objects, and all kinds of natural treasures are piled up into mountains.
Most of them were offered voluntarily by believers from all over the Great Zhou, and a small part was the inventory of Chengtian Prefecture in recent years.
Just from this picture, we can see to what extent Chengtian Prefecture's power has expanded in the past three years. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is "rich enough to rival a country."
Nearby, there are also a number of novel-style magical instruments, made up of several mirror sheets, emitting extraordinary faint light.
It was the latest projection device developed by Tai Academy, which could project images to the bottom of Chengtian Tower, allowing believers to witness the sacrifice together.
But being in such a prosperous environment, Hong Yingxue felt a little heavy, and sometimes she had a bad premonition in her heart.
This feeling has been lingering in her heart since the destruction of Yuansheng City and Anle's death.
Hong Yingxue often felt that Chengtian Prefecture seemed to be pushed by an invisible giant hand, which was why it expanded at an incredible speed and embarked on a path that had never been imagined.
The atmosphere in the entire Chengtian Mansion gradually slid towards an extreme direction. Sometimes, when she saw the fanaticism on the faces of some priests, she was secretly frightened.
Hong Yingxue thought to herself: "Originally, it shouldn't be like this..."
Although the Chengtian Prefecture in the past was very pious to the gods, the priests still had the consciousness of being the citizens of the Great Zhou and would consider the common people of the Great Zhou.
And now, Chengtian Prefecture has regarded itself as an existence superior to the Great Zhou!
Hong Yingxue noticed this situation, but the saint had no real power. In addition, her trusted priest grandfather did not say anything about it, so she could only let Chengtian Mansion become what it is now.
But today, her ominous premonition reached its peak.
"Saint, why do you look so worried?"
At this time, Yuan Feng came up from behind and chuckled, "Today is the Great God Festival. You will be the most dazzling pearl in this festival. You can't look sad."
Hong Yingxue looked at him and asked in confusion: "Is what we are doing really right?"
Hearing this, Yuan Feng frowned and said in a rare serious tone: "Of course it's right!"
"All this is the guidance of the gods!"
"Hong Yingxue, are you doubting the gods?"
Hong Yingxue quickly said, "I don't have one."
"The Holy Son of Tianyuan will soon be chosen, and the Heavenly God Ceremony will begin soon. You'd better put aside these unnecessary thoughts, don't let me down, and don't let down the believers of the entire Great Zhou."
After Yuan Feng finished speaking, he turned and left.
Hong Yingxue stared at his back in a daze, feeling that this respected elder was a very strange person.
Not long after, another priest came over and said.
"Lady Saint, the Holy Son of Tianyuan has been chosen. He is a cultivator from Xuantian City named Chi Changhe. Please prepare to start the Heavenly God Ceremony."
Hong Yingxue nodded silently.
******
The high platform below Chengtian Tower.
A young monk with red hair and white robes stood proudly on it, looking around with high spirits, enjoying the pleasure of being the center of attention.
This person is Chi Changhe!
The two competitors around him had been declared defeated and were taken away by the priests for treatment.
Although the two failed to become the Holy Sons of Tianyuan, they also made a name for themselves in this great ceremony of the gods and will also receive rewards from Chengtian Prefecture.
Of course, compared to the glory of coming first, this benefit is nothing more than nothing.
"This Chi Changhe is indeed extremely powerful. He deserves the title of Tianyuan Saint Son!"
The nearby believers witnessed the fight and couldn't help but sigh: "Many of the magical powers he displayed are simply unheard of by me."
"He is the strongest among the younger generation of the Great Zhou!"
Hearing this, a student from Tai Academy in the crowd sneered: "I don't think so."
"There are still many geniuses in Tai Academy who have not yet made a move. Chi Changhe is just the strongest among those who believe in God."
These words immediately made many believers nearby glare at him angrily. If the student's companions had not pulled him away, he would have been in great trouble.
But soon, people's attention was attracted by a ray of light descending from high above.
This light is extremely grand, yet warm and bright, with a sense of vastness that embraces everything. It falls on people like a mother's caress, making people feel calm unconsciously.
And in this light, there was an extremely gorgeous chariot, driving along with the light.
On the chariot sat a saint dressed in gorgeous clothes.
The breeze blew the veil, allowing people to vaguely glimpse a corner of that beautiful face.
The arrival of the saint instantly pushed the atmosphere near the platform to its peak.
"It's the Holy Lady!"
"It would be worthwhile for me to come here if I could see the Saint Girl once."
At the same time, the light fell on Chi Changhe. His whole body felt warm as if he was soaking in a hot spring. The minor injuries on his body healed quickly, and the consumed secret power was also replenished. In the blink of an eye, he recovered to his peak state.
Chi Changhe's eyes filled with tears, and he said with emotion: "This is the power of the gods!"
Not far from the platform, Xuan Hui snorted in his heart: "Disgusting!"
He didn't like gods from the bottom of his heart. If gods were really omnipotent, why did Yuansheng City fall and why did his second brother die?
"Ok?"
At this time, Xuanhui suddenly discovered that Lu Bin, who had been not far away, had disappeared without a trace, and he felt confused and uncertain.
"Where did he go?"
High up, the precious chariot in divine light had arrived in front of the Chichang River.
Hong Yingxue's voice was ethereal and seemed to come from far away.
"From today on, you are the Holy Son of Tianyuan. You will receive the blessing of the gods and serve them for the rest of your life."
Chi Changhe bowed his head humbly and said devoutly: "I am willing to become the most pious servant of the gods and dedicate my all to the gods."
After saying this, he climbed onto the palanquin and headed to the top floor of Chengtian Pagoda to preside over the grand sacrifice to the gods.
But at this moment, a discordant voice suddenly sounded.
"Miss Hong, your precious chariot is quite nice, could you give me a ride?"
Under the incredulous gazes of the crowd, a handsome young man appeared out of nowhere on the platform, right between Hong Yingxue and Chi Changhe.
No one present noticed when he appeared.
"Fellow Daoist Lu Bin!"
Seeing the man's face clearly, Xuan Hui was sweating profusely and was extremely surprised: "What on earth does he want to do?"
The other students who were with them were also shocked: "Is he crazy? This is a grand festival for the gods..."
"Lü Bin is dead!"
Although Lu Bin is well-known in Taixue Academy, he might not even be able to save Taixue Academy if he did such a thing in this situation!
The believers began to talk among themselves, regarding Anle as a troublemaker, with hostility in their eyes.
Hong Yingxue was shocked when she heard that unique name. She looked at Anle in disbelief, her nose felt sore and tears almost burst out.
Even though the face in front of her was completely different from the one she remembered, there was only one person who would call her by that name.
"Who are you to be so rude to the Saint Lady?"
Beside him, Chi Changhe frowned, thinking that this young man was extremely annoying and had to come out to cause trouble at this time.
Anle didn't look at him, but just stared at Hong Yingxue with complicated eyes.
"you!"
Chi Changhe had just become the Holy Son of Tianyuan, and was at the peak of his career. How could he tolerate being ignored like this?
He was furious, and his red hair behind him danced with his aura. Eleven hidden gods appeared around him. In addition to the magnificent Six Heavenly Palaces and the towering Four Sacred Gates, there was also a divine platform under the Heavenly Palace, which unified the power of the Six Palaces and the Four Sacred Gates.
The essence of the Heavenly Palace and Saint Gate realms is to unlock the divine power hidden within the human body and call upon it.
It’s just that the focus of the Heavenly Palace and the Holy Gate is slightly different. The former focuses on exploring the potential of the human body, while the latter focuses on removing restrictions and constraints. Every time a holy gate is opened, the stronger the divine power that the human body can burst out at the same time.
When it comes to the Divine Platform Realm, it is divided into two divine treasures, the Earthly God Platform and the Heavenly God Platform. These two realms begin to unify all the previously opened divine treasures and integrate them.
During this process, the cultivator will feel the great Dao of heaven and earth, and thus master magical powers that far exceed ordinary spells!
At this time, two more heads grew from Chi Changhe's neck and several arms grew from his upper ribs, giving him the appearance of a creature with three heads and six arms. They either took out weapons, chanted spells, or formed hand seals, using various methods to attack Anle together.
"Death!"
Faced with this attack, Anle gently extended a finger.
Chi Changhe suddenly felt a great sense of danger and took several steps back, his face filled with confusion.
He stared at the white fingertips, which seemed to contain a terrifying sword intent that could be used at any time.
Anle chuckled and said, "You can't take this sword."
The believers below couldn't see so many details. They only saw that Anle did nothing, but Chi Changhe was so scared that he kept backing away, and naturally booed.
"Is the Red Saint afraid of him?"
Xuan Hui also looked at the stage nervously, wondering in his heart: "Isn't Fellow Daoist Lu a Saint Sect cultivator? Why can he scare away Chi Changhe, who is at the Divine Stage Realm?"
Hearing the discussion below, Chi Changhe became anxious and said, "You are quite powerful. You can actually force me to use my real magical power!"
Before he finished speaking, a vertical eye opened in the center of Chi Changhe's eyebrows, and a sky full of stars gushed out from his eyebrows, floating up into the air, and instantly turned into a flowing river of stars, which reflected the light around Hong Yingxue. This scene caused people to exclaim in surprise.
As a devout believer, Chi Changhe has comprehended supernatural powers and can also borrow the power of gods.
"If you die from this move of mine, it will be considered as you..."
The evolution of the galaxy's light had not yet been completed, and Chi Changhe had not yet finished speaking, when a simple ray of light shot straight into the vertical eye between his eyebrows.
The vertical eye closed instantly and blood gushed out.
The strange vision above was like a colorful bubble, which burst and disappeared with a poke.
Anle exerted a little force and shook Chi Changhe off the platform.
"Tianyuan Saint Son, nothing more than that."
An Le looked at Hong Yingxue and said with a smile: "I heard that the most capable person will be given the title of Tian Yuan Saint. It just so happens that I have been 'revering' the gods for a long time, so why not let me be the one?"
"Besides, there is no one more worthy of this title than me."
At this time, Hong Yingxue came back to her senses, but she didn't know what Anle wanted to do.
Seeing that many believers below the stage began to riot, Hong Yingxue did not hesitate and said, "Since this fellow Taoist is more powerful, the qualification of Tianyuan Saint Son will belong to him."
Anle naturally boarded the treasure chariot and flew to the top of Chengtian Tower with Hong Yingxue.
Even at this point, everyone present had not recovered from their shock and were dumbfounded.
Chi Changhe's seemingly extraordinary divine eye ability was actually broken by Lu Bin in one move?
