Long Aiyu followed the pretty little girl to the hall, found a table and sat down.
"Brothers and sisters, are you also here for pilgrimage?" Xiaodie asked immaturely.
"That's right, we came from the countryside and don't know much about these things! So I have to ask you, Xiaodie, to explain it to us more!" Long Aiyu said with a smile.
"Hehe, you have found the right person. Even though I am young, I am a know-it-all in this water city!" Xiaodie said proudly.
"Really? You've been sensible since you were born. How many things can you understand in total?" Huantong said in disbelief.
"Sister, don't believe it. My family runs an inn and receives all the passers-by, so I think of rich and well-informed news. I have been instilled with this countless knowledge by my grandfather and father since I was a child!"
Hearing that Huantong had doubts about herself, Xiaodie immediately explained.
"Good Xiaodie, my girl is quite tall, but her mind is actually about the same size as yours, and she is as knowledgeable as him!" Long Aiyu said with a smile.
"So that's it, then she's really pitiful!" Xiaodie immediately said with pity.
"Yes, yes, Xiaodie, please tell us about the Five Elements Island!" Long Aiyu stopped Huantong who wanted to speak with his eyes, and asked with a smile.
"Well, there are only six cities in the Five Elements Island, namely the Golden City, the Wooden City, the Water City, the Fire City, the Earthen City, and the Holy Capital under the Martial Saint Mountain! As for the holy land of our Five Elements Island, it is the Martial Saint Mountain, and our great Saint Martial Guardian lives on the mountain!
The place where we are staying now is Shuicheng, which is located closest to the seaside!" Xiaodie said simply.
"So that's it. So what's going on with the pilgrimage ceremony? Are all these warriors here going to participate in the pilgrimage?" Long Aiyu asked.
"Of course these people are on pilgrimage. The pilgrimage ceremony can only be encountered once every five hundred years or almost every five hundred years. The warriors on the entire Five Elements Island will go crazy for it!" Xiaodie explained.
"Xiaodie, can you tell me about this pilgrimage ceremony in detail?" Long Aiyu asked with great interest.
"This pilgrimage ceremony is the most grand event on Five Elements Island and lasts for a year. To put it bluntly, the Holy Mountain selects young practitioners with outstanding talents and enters the Holy Mountain to train them as guardian candidates!" Xiaodie said
.
"I'm confused. Isn't it just about selecting a disciple? As for doing it once every five hundred years?" Long Aiyu asked speechlessly.
"This time is not an ordinary selection. People with outstanding qualifications have the opportunity to receive the joint guidance of the five patron saints. The greatest significance of this pilgrimage ceremony is to send the five patron saints back to the embrace of nature. This is the joy of the whole people.
It’s a big thing to celebrate!” Xiaodie said.
"The patron saint returns to nature? What does this mean?" Long Aiyu asked with a frown.
"What do you mean, you are still a warrior. Don't you know that the lifespan of a holy warrior is only five hundred years? Several guardian saints have reached their end and will naturally return to the world!" Xiaodie said with contempt.
"Holy crap, you mean those holy warriors are going to die?" Long Aiyu asked seriously. It seems that it is not easy for a soul warrior to die. How come the life of a holy warrior is so worthless here?
?And several holy warriors died together?
"You can't be disrespectful to the patron saints. They have guarded the safety of Five Elements Island for hundreds of years and have made huge contributions to the people on the entire island!" Xiaodie said angrily.
"Are you right? I was wrong! What I mean is why do these holy warriors have to die, when they can break through to the heavenly warriors?" Long Aiyu asked in confusion.
"What's the matter with Heavenly Warriors? I've never heard that Heavenly Warriors are more dangerous than Holy Warriors?" Xiaodie asked innocently.
Long Aiyu opened his mouth, but he didn't know how to explain this problem. Long Aiyu thought depressedly: "Don't people here know the existence of heavenly warriors? Wait a minute, don't the holy warriors here have to die after death?
Has he become a strong man at the peak of the soul level of the ghost clan?"
"My dear, do five patron saints die every five hundred years? No, they return to nature!" Long Aiyu asked quickly.
"Yes, so this pilgrimage ceremony is held only once every five hundred years!" Xiaodie said, tilting her head.
"It's over, it really is like this, it really is like this!" Long Aiyu murmured. He had already thought about why the ghost tribe has so many soul-level masters. The reason is that every five hundred years, the ghost tribe will be given to the ghost tribe here.
Provide the souls of five holy warriors, and once the souls of the strong become ghosts, they will have eternal life. After thousands of years of accumulation, it would be strange if there were fewer soul-level strongmen from the ghosts! The most terrifying thing is that
It seems that not only humans exist in this sea area, but the spiritual beasts fighting in the sea are also controlled by the ghost clan after death.
Long Aiyu suddenly felt shuddering when he thought of these. In this way, the ghost clan can get countless powerful warriors from here.
"Long, ahem, brother, what's wrong with you?" Seeing Long Aiyu's ugly face, Huantong quickly asked with concern.
"Nothing, I have something to ask you later! Haha, Xiaodie, I want to see the patron saint. Is there any way for me to meet some patron saints?" Long Aiyu asked.
"Haha, I said, brother, look at all of these people here who don't want to see the patron saint. Do you think you can see the patron saint if you want to? But..." Xiaodie said with a smile.
"But what?" Long Aiyu asked quickly.
"But this pilgrimage ceremony is an opportunity to meet several patron saints!" Xiaodie said.
"How did we meet?" Long Aiyu asked nervously.
"It means that you can stand out from thousands of people. The selection for this pilgrimage ceremony is actually very simple. It is a competition in the form of a ring. As long as you have the ability to squeeze into the top five, you will have the opportunity to be received by several holy masters.
!" Xiaodie said with a smile.
"Top five? What is this concept? Is there a level limit for this competition?" Long Aiyu asked.
"There is no level limit. It is a competition that everyone can participate in. Originally, the competition at the Longevity Ceremony was also to select those who are most likely to become strong holy warriors. Therefore, in the past, those who received the honor of being received by the patron saint were soul warriors, but soldiers
If a warrior performs outstandingly, he may be selected as an ordinary disciple of Martial Saint Mountain!" Xiaodie explained with a smile.
"So that's the case, is there no other way? If there's something big and urgent, can't we make an exception and summon him?" Long Aiyu asked, it would be a waste of too much time to advance through levels of competition!
"There is no way, no matter how big the matter is, it is not as important as the pilgrimage ceremony, and no matter how urgent the matter is, it cannot be as urgent as a few guardian saints returning to nature!" Xiaodie shook her head and said.
"Hey, it seems we can only do it step by step!" Long Aiyu said with a sigh.
"Haha, is there anything else you don't understand? If you didn't have me, you would have to do other things?" Xiaodie said with a smile.
"Well, thank you, Xiaodie, I have nothing else to ask for the time being!" Long Aiyu said with a wry smile.
Then Xiaodie jumped away from the table, and Long Aiyu was a little downcast!
"Long Aiyu, what's wrong with you? Your face has been so ugly from just now to now!" After Xiaodie left, Huantong hurriedly asked with concern.
"I'm fine, Xiaodie, let me ask you, what level is the strongest among your spiritual beasts?" Long Aiyu asked in a low voice.
"The strongest among our spirit beasts is of course the tenth level peak spirit beast!" Huantong said in confusion.
"What strength is that equivalent to among us humans?" Long Aiyu asked.
"It's equivalent to the pinnacle of the holy martial arts among you humans. Otherwise, what else could it be? By the way, what is the heavenly warrior you just mentioned?" Huantong asked curiously.
"The Heavenly Warrior is an existence in our world that is one level higher than the Holy Warrior!" Long Aiyu explained.
"What!" Huantong suddenly shouted in shock, and suddenly everyone around looked at her. Huantong smiled sheepishly, lowered his head and asked softly: "Do you know what you are talking about? Holy Warrior
He is already the strongest person in the world, how could there be someone more powerful than the Holy Warrior?".
"It's true, and there is a divine warrior above the heavenly warriors. This is a divine warrior who has appeared throughout the ages, and finally disappeared inexplicably!" Long Aiyu also said in a low voice.
"So you didn't lie to me? But I'm over a hundred years old, why haven't I heard about these things?" Huantong asked in confusion.
"I don't know. Maybe there are no Heavenly Warriors in this world at all, or maybe the Holy Warriors in this world don't know how to break through to the Heavenly Warriors! By the way, Huantong, do you know who your Holy Warriors are?
How many years is the lifespan of a spirit beast?" Long Aiyu suddenly asked, because he suddenly thought that in this world, not only humans with the holy warrior level of the holy warrior spirit beast can also perish, then wouldn't these also become the ghost clan?
member.
"Our holy martial spirit beasts have two levels, namely the ninth-level spirit beast and the tenth-level (7) spirit beast. Although the ninth-level spirit beast has a limited lifespan, it can live for at least five thousand years. As for the tenth-level spirit beast,
He's immortal! What's wrong?" Huantong explained.
"It's okay, it's okay. If the holy martial class among your spiritual beasts is so short-lived, then this world will really be over!" Long Aiyu said in a nagging voice.
"What on earth are you talking about? You asked some incomprehensible questions. I didn't understand a thing!" Huantong asked in confusion.
"Haha, it doesn't matter if you don't understand. It's fine if I understand!" Long Aiyu said with a smile, thinking in his heart: "I have learned about the origin of the powerful ghost clan, and the next step is to find a way to meet those who are about to sit down.
They must not know that they did not return to nature after death, but became minions of the ghost tribe! They must understand these things clearly!"
"You are so weird, forget it, eat, hehe, I am so happy to be able to eat like you humans!" Huantong said excitedly, and then started to use chopsticks clumsily to eat.
