Feng Wuchen's days at the inn were quite peaceful. He spent every day meditating in his room and studying the Dharma.
Half a month passed in a blink of an eye. On the day of the Ascension Ceremony, the entire Yantian City was extremely lively. There were many times more people walking back and forth on the streets.
As soon as Feng Wuchen arrived downstairs at the inn, he saw the waiter walking up to him excitedly: "Sir... it's so early!"
Feng Wuchen nodded: "Well..."
The waiter ignored Feng Wuchen's indifference and said excitedly: "Sir, can I tell you some good news?"
"Oh?" Seeing the light in Xiao Er's eyes, Feng Wuchen suddenly became interested: "What good news can you tell me?"
The waiter smiled mysteriously: "Hehe... I just got the news that at this year's Ascension Conference, the Red Flame God Lord will appear in person."
"What?" Feng Wuchen really opened his eyes and asked quickly: "Didn't you say that Shenjun was seriously injured and has been in seclusion to recuperate?"
The waiter shrugged: "It's just hearsay! Anyway, after today, it will be clear whether it is a mule or a horse... Alas! The appearance of the god is also a good thing for us. As long as the old man shows up, it will be clear."
The city is full of monsters and monsters, so we should restrain ourselves, right?"
After chatting with the waiter for a while, Feng Wuchen left the inn and headed towards the direction of the crowd.
After a long time, he finally squeezed into the center of the crowd.
I saw a huge altar in the center of Yantian City, with several figures standing on the altar.
Behind these figures, there is an extremely shining eye of God floating, and they are all at the peak of the immortal realm.
Obviously these should be the so-called favored sons of Yuanling Academy, this year's ascendants.
"Are they the powerful ones who are about to ascend? They are indeed extraordinary."
"I really envy them... From now on, they will officially be reborn and become eternal gods!"
"..."
Amid everyone's exclamations, Feng Wuchen raised his eyebrows lightly.
On the top of the altar, there was a slowly rotating magic circle, looming, and behind the altar, he could vaguely detect a power that made his heart palpitate.
That power is... the tribulation period!
Sure enough, the so-called ascension is not that simple!
For fear of being discovered by the people behind the magic circle, Feng Wuchen quickly concealed his aura.
"quiet!"
There was a lot of chatter among the crowd.
From a certain direction, a deep voice came, and everyone fell silent for a moment.
Only then did he see a group of people coming from the direction of the royal court. The leader was a white-haired old man wearing golden armor and a carved dragon helmet. Although the old man was old, his eyes were bright and powerful.
The field and pressure continued to scatter, but it was more terrifying than the several ascendants on the altar.
This person is now the number one master of the Fire Country, the Grand Marshal of the Royal Court of Arms—Pang Xiao!
"Blessed by heaven! The king of gods has decreed: The stars and the moon are passing by, and the time of heaven has arrived. Today..."
Then they saw Pang Xiao holding a golden edict and reading a long speech in a straight and clear tone.
"I have been in seclusion for a long time. I heard that all the people are concerned about me. This time I will take the opportunity of the Ascension Ceremony to enjoy it with the people! I admire this——"
After reading it, Pang Xiao threw the edict into the air, knelt down on one knee, and shouted loudly: "Welcome to the Lord God!"
Then the golden light of the edict flashed, and then, a door to the void opened in the void above.
"Boom!"
The strong breath of fire spread everywhere.
For a moment, all the people retreated, their faces losing their longing and piety.
"Welcome to the Lord God!"
"Welcome to the Lord God!"
"..."
But here
At a time when all the people are congratulating each other.
"Boom!"
From the Void Gate, a ball of fire suddenly shot out, and the direction it went towards was the altar.
Seeing the sudden change, Pang Xiao's expression changed drastically: "Get out of the way!"
The reaction of several ascendants on the altar was not slow, and they immediately activated the power of the Eye of God and left the danger range directly.
The fireball fell to the ground.
Just heard a loud "bang" sound.
In an instant, the entire Yantian City was trembling violently, the altar directly shattered, and the magic circle on top of it also disappeared instantly.
This sudden change instantly caused chaos on the field.
Countless people lost their bearings, pushing, pulling, and trampling each other. For a while, the sound of crying and howling could not be heard.
"No chaos! The royal court's imperial guards obey orders and quickly maintain order on the field!"
"yes!"
Feng Wuchen frowned and secretly released the defensive shield, pushing the panicked crowd around.
After a while, when the smoke and dust from the ruins in front dispersed, the crowd restored order under the protection of the Forbidden Army.
They saw that the ordinary people on the field had already retreated to the outside of the crowd.
Those who were slightly closer to the ruins were all monks with the Eye of God.
However, at that moment, no matter whether they were monks or ordinary people, when they saw the scene on the ruins, they all opened their eyes wide and turned to stone.
"How...how could it be?"
"That's...that's the true form of the Divine Lord?"
"..."
On top of the ruins, I saw a giant red beast covered in scales. Although the beast had its eyes open, it was already lifeless, and the flames on its body were receding.
"Lord God!"
Seeing this, Pang Xiao's eyes trembled and he roared angrily: "The Lord God has been assassinated, seal the scene immediately!"<
br>
The king of gods was assassinated?
These four words continue to echo in everyone's hearts.
Lord Scarlet Flame is a god from the Kingdom of Fire, one of the strongest in the Yuanling Continent.
Who can kill him?
Perhaps sensing the passing of the giant beast, Jixie also let out a whining cry in the first layer of Longyuan.
"You recognize it?"
When asked, Jixie actually replied in a less fluent human language: "Qilin...Qilin...dead...dead!"
Feng Wuchen's eyes trembled slightly: "Could it be... the auspicious beast Qilin!"
He did not expect that the true form of the so-called God of Fire was actually the legendary auspicious beast Qilin!
"Not a purebred unicorn!"
At this time, Jiuyou Sword Demon suddenly interjected: "A pure-bred Qilin belongs to the metal, and should be covered with golden scales. Moreover, the flames on this Qilin are somewhat similar to dragon flames. He should be from the Qilin clan."
Mixed with dragon blood... but it is precisely because of this that his passing will make Long Zi ward off evil spirits."
"Qilin is mixed with dragon blood?" Feng Wuchen's heart was even more turbulent: "How powerful will the offspring of such a powerful union of two races be?"
"No, no!" Jiuyou Sword Demon continued to explain: "Qilin and True Dragon are both the top bloodlines in the world, they are perfect! Heaven will not allow the birth of bloodlines more powerful than themselves, so these two
If the two are combined, there is a high probability that a hybrid will be born that is inferior to the parents!"
Feng Wuchen then showed a look of astonishment: "It's so... But even so, with his background, he is considered to be the top combat power in the world, right? How could he be killed so easily?"
"This one is unknown! Let's take a look first and then talk about it!"
Just when Feng Wuchen was about to wait and see what would happen, at the critical moment, a sharp gaze locked on him.
Feng Wuchen suddenly turned his eyes and met the man's eyes.
Chapter completed!
