Chapter 334: The power of twisted guidance, the Emperor of Heaven has come to the world, the ceremony of offering sacrifice to the heaven
Rather than saying that the Star Gate is a sect, it would be better to say that it is a vast world with the Star Gate as its main body.
Looking around, there are mountains and stars everywhere, hundreds and thousands of them, stretching endlessly. There are caves in every mountain, and many cities are located on the stars, and the air is filled with an ancient atmosphere.
Li Qingxian, along with Elder Xingming, Ge Qixing and others, turned into a divine rainbow and headed all the way to the core area of the Star Gate.
After arriving here, one can feel the breath of a saint on almost every other mountain. Deep in the chaotic energy, there is a terrifying pressure that makes people's hearts palpitate and surpasses that of the Great Sage.
The big stars rumbled and moved, rising and falling like their breathing.
In the core area, there stands a mountain over ten thousand feet high, very majestic, with green pines and cypresses, cascading waterfalls, and palaces one after another standing on the mountainside. Various spirit beasts and servants come and go, accommodating hundreds of thousands of people.
At the end of the mountain, there is an extremely magnificent palace. The stars in the sky seem to be scattered there. High in the sky, one can even see an ancient map of the stars slowly rotating, flashing brilliant light.
"The Hall of Stars..."
Li Qingxian noticed the name of this palace. It was three ancient characters written in silver and iron, which contained a fairy charm.
Even if you just look at it for a moment, you can't help but be immersed in it and gain enlightenment.
She just took a look and then looked away.
In her consciousness, Jiang Lan has not made any movement since he followed her to the Gate of Stars.
At this moment, in the spacious hall of the Hall of Stars, a tall figure wearing a silver-white mask and a purple star robe was standing quietly in the middle.
Above his head, the sky full of stars rose and fell, and it seemed as if he could touch the vast starry sky with his hand.
Many high-level elders of the Star Gate gathered in the hall, seemingly waiting.
"Master, the bloodline of the Five Seasons God has been gathered. We can start the reception ceremony."
After entering the hall, Elder Xing Ming spoke respectfully to the figure wearing the silver-white mask.
"The Five Seasons God is about to return, I hope nothing goes wrong."
"The immortal sects are also preparing to welcome the return of Emperor Sangong." The leader of the Star Sect spoke in a calm and gentle tone.
His eyes were very deep. Just by looking at Li Qingxian, he seemed to see through all her secrets.
In the center of the Hall of Stars, a magnificent ancient altar has long been built. It was constructed with five-colored soil and filled with the aura of the five seasons. Indistinctly, one can see the cycle of the five seasons in ancient times.
Next to the altar, there were four figures waiting. The oldest was an octogenarian in his seventies or eighties, and the youngest was a boy about thirteen years old.
Li Qingxian was also brought to the altar. With just one glance, she knew that these four people also possessed the bloodline of the Five Seasons God.
However, these four people just stood in front of the altar with pious expressions, not affected by the outside world at all, as if they had been brainwashed.
"The great Lord of the Stars will build a beacon in the darkness for the lost gods to guide them home."
The leader of the Star Gate began to chant something, his robes fluttering, and ancient marks tumbling between his palms and fingers.
The atmosphere in the entire hall suddenly changed, as if one could see countless stars rising and falling, huge comets streaking across the sky, falling into the universe, and then quickly extinguishing.
Like falling water splashes, creating insignificant splashes in the torrent of time.
"Master, please open the Star Gate and show the way back for the Five Seasons God..."
Many elders of the Star Gate were extremely fanatical and reverent. They all knelt down and chanted ancient scriptures.
One after another, brilliant star symbols flew out and condensed in the void, as if turning into a coordinate that would penetrate time and space.
In the main hall, Ge Qixing also knelt down. Only a few people were standing. There was a bright light in their eyes, but they were also chanting the scriptures. Their bodies were like starlight, extremely crystal clear and dazzling.
Li Qingxian and the other four people who possessed the Five Seasons Divine Bloodline were unable to control themselves at this moment. True blood kept flying out of their bodies and continuously spilled onto the altar in front of them.
There, a strange five-colored mist rose up. As the altar continued to glow, it tore through time and space and sank into the end of the boundless sky.
Soon, even someone as powerful as Li Qingxian felt dizzy and dazed, which was caused by the loss of true blood in the body.
Although the other four people around her were also carefully selected, they soon turned pale and could not bear the loss of so much real blood.
In Li Qingxian's little world, Jiang Lan opened his eyes.
His brows glowed slightly, and a drop of real blood flew out from his real body, then silently merged into the real blood that flew out from Li Qingxian's body.
Boom!!!
The Hall of Stars suddenly shook, as if the gate to eternal time and space was torn apart, and chaotic mist spread out.
On the five-colored altar, an inexplicable great power was descending, along with divine light and matter. Five blurry shadows of gods were slowly condensing there.
"The Five Seasons God is about to return..."
The leader of the Star Gate had a gentle and calm voice, but there was also a hint of excitement in his voice.
All the elders could hardly hide their excitement and reverence on their faces. After all, they were gods once appointed by the Emperor of Heaven, representing the five seasons of the ancient universe.
In this day and age, when immortals have disappeared and gods have vanished, the return of the righteous gods of ancient heaven is truly inspiring.
The hazy divine light fell above the five-colored altar. The shadows of the five gods, Haoshou, Zhurong, Jumang, became more and more solid, as if they came from the ancient time and space.
The slow and heavy footsteps could be heard throughout the entire hall. Ripples of time and space continued to surge, and golden light rained down, making it extremely sacred.
But the next moment, something happened that no one could have imagined. The time and space there were distorted, as if an unknown force had appeared and reversed the guiding path, causing the place to collapse and shatter continuously, and then fell into a blurred chaos.
With a click, cracks appeared on the five-colored altar, and the light began to dim.
The silhouette of the Five Seasons God became increasingly faint and went further away, until it was finally distorted by an unknown force and could no longer be seen.
"What……"
All the elders of the Star Gate were stunned, unable to believe what they were seeing.
"How is it possible..."
The leader of the Star Gate also stood there in a daze.
"Why is this happening? The Five Seasons Gods have clearly returned, but how come an inexplicable force suddenly appeared in the end and distorted their path to return?"
"What happened? Who could interfere with the return of the Five Seasons God?"
The messenger of the Star Gate, the old man in black robe, frowned. It was the first time he encountered such a situation. He had clearly succeeded in the reception, but in the end he failed completely.
"The guidance of the Lord of Stars cannot be wrong. The Five Seasons Gods have indeed returned, but there is another force that guided them there."
"It is indeed only that power that can distort all this."
Suddenly, the leader of the Star Gate thought of something, and his face suddenly became excited, without any of his previous gentleness and calmness, and his voice was trembling.
"What the sect leader means is..." The old man in black robe seemed to have thought of something all of a sudden, and his breathing became rapid.
“Emperor of Heaven…”
"It must be the Emperor of Heaven. The Emperor of Heaven has come to the world." The leader of the Star Gate said excitedly.
Looking at the stunned and unbelievable people of the Star Gate, he said again with certainty, "Only the power of the Emperor of Heaven can distort all this, otherwise the Five Seasons God would not be able to be led away so easily."
There was an instant commotion in the Hall of Stars, and all the elders were unable to contain themselves and were extremely excited.
The Emperor of Heaven has descended to the world, and the era of the ancient heaven is about to come.
The Five Seasons God must have returned to the Emperor of Heaven.
Li Qingxian, who had lost a lot of real blood and looked a little pale, was also stunned by the news.
"Has the Emperor of Heaven come to the world?"
She tried to ask Jiang Lan.
But at this time, Jiang Lan seemed to be busy with other things and did not respond to her.
"Take them all away. The news that the Emperor of Heaven has descended to the world must not be spread to anyone else."
"When the time is right, the Emperor of Heaven will reappear in the world."
After a moment, the leader of the Star Gate, who had calmed down, waved his hand and ordered the elders of the Star Gate to keep the news secret.
The news of the Emperor of Heaven's coming to the world is too shocking. Once it spreads, not only will the entire land of Jiuzhou be stirred up by endless waves, but even the outside world will not be peaceful.
The old subordinates of the Emperor of Heaven will also go crazy because of this news.
"The Emperor of Heaven has come to this world, and the great Lord of the Stars will surely return as well..."
The leader of the Star Gate has a gaze that is as bright as the stars.
The entire Star Gate was immersed in joy and excitement.
Although Li Qingxian failed to bring back the Five Seasons God, she was successfully accepted and recognized by the Star Gate.
Several elders even brought some million-year-old holy medicines for her recuperation.
Li Qingxian accepted all the offers. She had indeed lost a large amount of true blood, and without the healing elixir, it might take her decades to recover.
Because of her special status and her blood relationship with the Li family of Taiyi Sect, the Qunxing Sect specially arranged a mountain for her to rest.
While Li Qingxian was concentrating on healing her wounds, a faint green smoke of laws appeared, and Jiang Lan's figure appeared in the cave.
"What happened in the Hall of Stars? Was the Five Seasons God really taken away by the Emperor of Heaven?"
Sensing Jiang Lan coming out, Li Qingxian opened her eyes and couldn't help but ask.
"Some accidents happened, and the Five Seasons God did return to the side of the Emperor of Heaven." Jiang Lan said calmly.
"Does this mean that the Emperor of Heaven has really come to the world?" Li Qingxian asked.
Jiang Lan nodded, without commenting.
Then, he took out a bottle of purple mist-filled pills from his arms, handed it to Li Qingxian, and said, "Aunt, you should recover from your injuries first. Next, the Star Sect should let you return to the Taiyi Sect to meet your grandfather, and then place you in the Taiyi Sect as an insider."
According to the time, the prototype of the Heavenly Palace rebuilt by the Xiandao League and the Great Xia Dynasty has been completed.
As the Emperor of Heaven, Jiang Lan should also "resurrect and return", sit in the Heavenly Palace, show his divine grace to the people, and absorb luck and faith.
The Stars Gate has a considerable foundation. In Jiang Lan's perception, in addition to the leader of the Stars Gate, there are also several celestial-level figures who have been sleeping for a long time.
However, probably because the Lord of the Stars has never fallen, there is no Realm Lord-level existence in the Star Gate.
Although the Star Gate has various formations and prohibitions, they are useless to Jiang Lan.
After he explained some things to Li Qingxian, he shook slightly, turned into a ray of light of law, merged into time and space, and disappeared.
"Something happened at Buzhouduan Mountain..."
After returning to the Prime Minister's Mansion, Jiang Ruxian found Jiang Lan first and told him what had happened outside the world.
"I already know that."
"But it's not a big deal." Jiang Lan was not surprised.
He currently has no plans to go outside the realm of the heavens. The ancient secret treasures left in the Four Immortals Map are not of much help to Jiang Lan's current cultivation.
The luck of the heavens gathered and absorbed by the Golden Cauldron of Luck and the power of the mind condensed by the Tower of Aspirations are now his main ways to improve his cultivation.
Jiang Lan then went to find his grandfather Li Ran and others and asked them to prepare for the ceremony of offering sacrifices to the heaven.
The re-established Heaven will soon be announced to the world. Some accidents may happen on that day. Many beings hiding in the dark of the land of Kyushu and the remnants of the old Heaven will try to stop them.
During this period, the Xiandao League and the Daxia Dynasty continued to build momentum for Jiang Lan. The prototype of the new heaven has been formed, the fortune is rising, and the faith is as strong as fire. I don't know how much attention it has attracted from the dark, and many people are waiting for this day.
A few days later, Li Qingxian, who had left the Qunxing Gate, came to the land of Jiuzhou and stood in front of the mountain gate of Taiyi Gate.
She followed the instructions of the Star Gate and came to find Li Ran on the pretext of returning to the Taiyi Gate.
Jiang Lan had already revealed this to Li Ran.
Having not seen each other for many years, both the father and daughter were filled with emotion and had a lot of emotions in their hearts. Even Jiang Lan's mother, Li Qingshu, had tears in her eyes and missed her very much.
On that day, the news of Li Qingxian's return spread throughout the Taiyi Sect. Her cultivation level is now comparable to Li Ran's, and she is a true Saint King.
With Li Qingxian's return, Taiyi Sect's strength and power will naturally reach a higher level.
The top leaders of the Qunxing Sect, who were watching all this in secret, were naturally happy to see such an insider planted in the Taiyi Sect.
Soon, Li Qingxian passed the secret information she had obtained back to the Star Gate.
Half a month later, the Xiandao League will join hands with the Great Xia Dynasty to hold a ceremony to worship the heaven. At that time, Jiang Lan, as the "Emperor of Heaven", will also return and sit in the center of the new heaven.
This is the internal information of Taiyi Sect. Only a few senior members of the Li family know about it. It can be said to be very secretive.
"Half a month is enough time to prepare."
In the Star Gate, many high-level officials gathered to discuss countermeasures and decided to unite with all the immortal sects to block the Immortal Alliance’s ceremony on the day of the Heavenly Sacrifice Ceremony in order to announce the return of the "Ancient Heaven".
The New Heaven and the Ancient Heaven cannot coexist; only one of them can survive.
As the news spread that the Xiandao League and the Great Xia Dynasty were going to hold a real ceremony to worship the heavens, the entire land of Kyushu was in an uproar.
This is a true ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven, far more grand and solemn than the ancient emperors' sacrifices to heaven.
All the immortal sects and ancient families were in a state of excitement, and the situation outside the domain was not calm at all. Many ancient warships rushed over to participate in this grand ceremony.
The site of the New Heaven is located in the core area of Zhongtianzhou, where various underground spiritual veins converge, and clouds and mist are rising all day long, and the fairy mist is surging.
As pavilions and towers were built one after another, the fairy temples built by a group of skilled craftsmen appeared looming in the distance. It was magnificent and resplendent, with fairy light lingering. It really was like an ancient palace in heaven that had fallen to the earth, fascinating people.
Of course, all the immortal sects know that this is just a prototype. With Jiang Lan's return, the Heavenly Court will definitely expand until it regains its former glory.
Before half a month had passed, many monks had already arrived at the site.
The 108 overseas immortal sects, various hidden ethnic groups, ancient families in the ancient life stars outside the domain, and various immortal sects in the land of Kyushu, all gathered together.
The place was packed with people, creating an unprecedented grand occasion.
The huge immortal warships of the Great Xia Dynasty flew across the sky, draped with divine light and shining with endless divine brilliance. They hung high in the sky, emitting a terrifying divine power that shocked everything.
The patrol guards of the Immortal Dao League, wearing divine armor and holding heavenly swords, patrolled among the immortal mountains and sacred peaks to maintain order. They were shining with light and had an intimidating aura, just like real heavenly soldiers and generals.
In the very center, one can see a grand altar that is extremely high, far taller than the mountains and seemingly towering into the clouds.
The faith and vows gathered from the Tiandi Temples in various places surged here, turning into a sea of faith and pouring into the grand altar.
In the center of the grand altar, one can see a young and majestic golden figure standing, surrounded by clouds. It looks so majestic and the dazzling golden light is so bright that people cannot open their eyes.
The terrifying aura emanating from the golden statue of faith alone illuminated the entire sky.
When all the world masters from the heavens came to invade, "Emperor of Heaven" Jiang Lan turned the tide and defeated the enemy, but he was also retaliated against outside the world and finally died, leaving only a piece of blood-stained clothes.
After years of circulation and polishing by the Xiandao League and the Great Xia Dynasty, this matter has already spread to all places.
Even a child of a few years old can tell the cruelty of the past and how difficult it is to maintain peace in the golden age today. It can be said that the name Jiang Lan has been tainted with sacred glory.
Of course, the main reason is that battle, which happened not too long ago, and almost all living beings and monks have witnessed it with their own eyes. Therefore, the purity of faith and vows is very rare, and it also makes this golden body of faith shine.
No matter how glorious the deeds are, they will become dim and eventually forgotten after being washed away by time. Fortunately, all living beings in Kyushu today still remember that battle.
