Of course, there is no free lunch in the world.

While mortals gain power from the statue of 'Shou', they actually pay a heavy price.

The power of the 'Shou' statue is not something that ordinary people can obtain through their hard work.

Although this group of people could be tyrannical for a while, when they exhausted the power of the 'Shou' statue, the price became apparent.

The adaptability of the human body is extremely amazing.

In order to adapt to the power given by the statue of "Shou", the metabolism of the strengthened person will also increase sharply.

This process will not cause harm to the human body.

But when the enhancer consumes all the power in the body, the body can no longer keep up with the rapidly increasing metabolism.

As a result, there are often mortals in the rebel army who have exhausted their physical strength and even died of exhaustion.

In addition to the negative effects, Su Xing had also heard Heipao discussing with the city lord, Taoist Yuanlong, in the city lord's mansion.

——These mortals who have been strengthened by the ‘Shou’ statue are all sacrifices that will be used in tomorrow’s ‘Ascension Plan’.

Thinking of this, Su Xing gave up the idea of ​​secretly stealing the power of the 'Shou' statue.

Instead of trying to get rid of the 'Shou' statue, it is better to continue to mix among the rebels and wait until they invade the inner city tomorrow to see if they can take advantage of the chaos...

…

The next day.

Morotian, outside the city wall of the inner city.

Su Xing mingled with the rebels, listening to the black robes making their final mobilization before the war.

"Everyone in charge! The Lord of Namoluo Tiancheng, Taoist Yuanlong, deceived the heavens and the earth, harmed all living beings, and the people in the city have been suffering for a long time! We are now raising a righteous division to clear out the bandits and vent public anger together!"

When he said this, Heipao noticed that something was wrong with the atmosphere in the team.

None of these people seemed to understand what he was talking about.

After realizing this, the black robe added: "After the brothers enter the inner city, they can plunder property at will. When the city lord's palace is captured, everyone will be rewarded!"

"Roar!"

After hearing that there were treasures and rewards, everyone present shouted in unison.

They don't care about justice, they only care about whether they will get money after winning.

Seeing this, the black robe seemed to have found some way, and shouted loudly again: "Beat the rich and divide the spiritual stones!"

Everyone became more excited: "Beat the rich and divide the spiritual stones!"

Seeing that the mood of the rebels had been mobilized extremely positively, the black robe held a long sword and pointed directly in the direction of the inner city: "Kill!"

"Kill!" Everyone also shouted.

Mixed in with the rebel troops, Su Xing shouted twice from time to time while holding his sword, and soon rushed to the bottom of the inner city wall.

Perhaps it was to make things "more smooth" for the rebels.

It may also be to complete the ‘ascension ceremony’ as soon as possible.

As soon as everyone rushed to the bottom of the city wall, an 'internal response' immediately appeared in the city and directly opened the inner city gate.

Seeing this, the rebels immediately swarmed in.

Although the number of the foundation-building monks responsible for defending the city was small, relying on the advantage of the terrain, they were able to fight back and forth with the rebels.

But now the city gate has been opened by the 'inside response'.

Facing the swarming rebels, all the foundation-building monks dispersed like birds and beasts.

The scene suddenly became extremely chaotic.

at the same time.

When no one was paying attention to him, Su Xing found a hidden corner, and his whole body turned into a translucent state, instantly blending into the wall.

Su Xing didn't care who would win in this battle.

After all, no matter how hard these mortals and monks work, they are just pawns in the hands of Taoist Yuanlong and Heipao.

What kind of resistance, uprising, overthrowing the rich...

All these are just empty slogans shouted by the black robe.

The real purpose of Heipao doing all this is to prepare sacrifices for Taoist Yuanlong's 'Ascension Ceremony'.

At the same time, the ceremony was also Su Xing's real focus.

Relying on the ability of the 'Enchanted' state to pass through walls, Su Xing was cautious all the way and quickly sneaked into the city lord's palace.

Compared to yesterday evening.

At this moment, in addition to Taoist Yuanlong and Heipao, there were also numerous high-level officials from the Morotian City gathered in the hall of the City Lord's Mansion.

These high-level people are mainly composed of monks in the foundation-building stage, occasionally mixed with a small number of mortals, and monks in the Qi-training stage.

In the hall.

Taoist Yuanlong smiled and said: "Everyone, I believe that the rebels outside the city have now reached the inner city... If anyone wants to observe this 'ascension ceremony', or wants to leave Moro Heaven,

Yes, you can follow me to the central square outside the city."

Moradhi is a prison.

Only monks at the Golden Core stage can open the cage for a few breaths.

Because of this, the very few monks who wanted to leave Moluotian had to turn to Taoist Yuanlong who was about to break through to the Golden Elixir stage.

Almost all of these people gathered around Taoist Yuanlong.

"Fellow Taoist Yuanlong is about to break through to the Golden Core stage. He is just envious of us!"

"With this breakthrough, fellow Taoist Yuanlong, can he be regarded as the first person in the Moro Heaven?"

the other side.

Most of the people who were greedy for power and status gathered around the black robe.

They also spoke generously with words of praise, hoping to establish a good relationship with the future city lord as soon as possible.

in the wall.

Su Xingze hung far behind everyone and followed them to the central square of the city.

The central square of the city is open and there is no cover for Su Xing to hide.

In this case, Su Xing simply stopped hiding himself.

He walked directly out of the wall and blended into the crowd very naturally.

Relying on the names he just heard, Su Xing naturally bowed his hands to the "old acquaintances" around him and greeted them warmly.

Although the senior executives felt that Su Xing looked unfamiliar, their qualities of being in high-level circles for many years made them subconsciously greet Su Xing with a smile.

After several rounds of maneuvers, Su Xing actually leaned directly next to Taoist Yuanlong so that he could better observe the entire process of his ascension.

And at the same time that the senior officials in the city lord's palace arrived at the central square of the city.

The black robe had also returned to the rebel army early and led the rebel army to the central square of the city.

on the square.

Following the order from Black Robe, the rebels quickly surrounded the city lord, Taoist Yuanlong, Su Xing and the other foundation-building monks.

"Not bad!"

Looking at the rebels surrounding him, Taoist Yuanlong smiled at the black robe and said, "Thank you for being able to find more than 200 mortals suitable for sacrifice in Moruo Tian."

The black-robed man knelt on one knee and said, "I will work for the Lord of the City even if I die!"

As soon as this statement came out, the rebel army exploded in neutrality.

"what's the situation?"

"The black robe is actually the city lord's subordinate?"

In chaos.

A very few people in the rebel army have realized that something is wrong.

They were about to escape from this place, but they saw that the central square was enveloped by the 'spiritual light array' that had been deployed at an unknown time.

In just an instant, the rebel army became a turtle in a jar.

The offensive and defensive momentum was now reversed.

Taoist Yuanlong knelt on the ground, facing the statue of 'Shou' in the central square of the city, and whispered in his mouth: "In the eternal mansion, in the abyss, the indescribable things that sleep forever are waiting... As believers,

Serve the omniscient, almighty, great God of longevity.”

Taoist Yuanlong's words seemed to have some kind of magic power.

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the clouds over the central square quickly surging and gathering together.

Not long after.

The cloud has changed into the same shape as the statue of "Shou".

On the surface of the clouds, there is also a huge eyeball composed of clouds and mist.

The eyeballs were lifelike, as if they were overlooking everyone present from high in the sky.

Seeing that the ceremony was about to be completed, Taoist Yuanlong became excited.

Even a little helpless: "I set foot on the immortal road at the age of ten, and I sensed spiritual power in just ten days... I built the foundation at the age of thirty, and the foundation building period was completed at the age of sixty. After that, I couldn't make any progress, and I was far behind.

It has been more than a hundred years now."

As he spoke, Taoist Yuanlong's body slowly rose into the air.
Chapter completed!
