There are mantras gathered in the eye sockets of the two bronze figures, emitting a bright clear light, as if they are alive.
The mantras wandered around them, interweaving countless array changes.
Eventually all the arrays disappear into the body.
Just when everyone thought the sacrifice was over, there was suddenly another shaking sound, and thunder burst out from the void, striking the bronze man.
"Use Thunder Tribulation to assist in the sacrificial process, let me give it a try."
In the five-color world, Qiang Liang let out a deafening roar.
He opened his mouth, and thunder and lightning spiritual patterns appeared on his body, and a pillar of thunder burst out, which turned into dense lightning like a rainstorm, and fell on the bronze man.
Zhao Huaizhong then sent all the ten bronze figures that had been sacrificed to the Earth Fire Cave to be tempered again.
Qiang Liang's figure grew rapidly, and when he stretched out his hand, the sky fell as if it was collapsing, and the entire sky seemed to turn into a sea of ​​thunder, sucking in all the bronze figures.
Countless thunderbolts fell on the bronze figures, blending with the symbols on them.
Time passes.
Two hours later, the sacrifice was really coming to an end.
The halos and mantra symbols on the twelve bronze figures all converged and disappeared.
In the Earth Fire Cave, all fluctuations slowly calmed down.
This means that the real sacrifice of the Twelve Bronze Men is over.
They correspond to the twelve earthly branches and can be combined into a square formation. Their specific power needs to be tested through actual combat.
It has been ten years of cold and heat since the beginning of the sacrifice of the Twelve Bronze Men.
At the moment when all the sacrifices of the bronze figures were completed, a bronze pillar of light rose up in the Earth Fire Cave, echoing the stars in the sky.
However, before any further vision could appear, Zhao Huaizhong stretched out his hand and put the bronze man away.
It's not appropriate to make too much noise with this thing now, as it has to wait to surprise the demon clan outside the Three Realms.
"I invite all the saints to eat some novel things as a token of my gratitude."
In the main dining room of Xianyang Palace, hundreds of cooks are busy.
This dining room has the most complete range of stoves and cookers in the three worlds today. The stoves alone are divided into copper stoves, iron stoves, wood stoves, and earth and stone stoves, a total of seven or eight types.
Different stoves are used for steaming, stir-frying and deep-frying in order to pursue the ultimate taste.
At this time, on one of the tables that was more than ten feet long, there were many pieces of seafood that were still alive. The main ingredient was a fat fish.
Its body is nearly ten feet long, shaped like a spindle, extremely stout, and nearly oval in cross section.
The mouth of the fish is conical, the abdomen is bulging and swollen with smooth lines, and gradually narrows down to the tail. There are one large and two small ridges on both sides. The tail fin is crescent-shaped, the back is blue and black, and the abdomen is silvery white.
Zhao Huaizhong used a magic spell to bring the scene in the main dining room to his eyes and invited everyone to watch.
He introduced: "This is called tuna. The ocean east of Daqin is one of its production areas. Qin goes out to the sea to the south and is also distributed near the Ryukyu Islands.
What you see is the best species among them, the blue fin tuna, which is the top raw food ingredient."
Under Zhao Huaizhong's long-term training, the cooks of Qin Palace were skilled in knife skills. They first opened the fins and heads of the fish, then cut the tuna into various parts, divided them into different parts, and repaired them neatly.
For bluefin tuna, the meat under the chin is the best because it has been hunted and chewed for a long time. It is alive and fat, which is better than the big belly.
The quality of the meat in the fish belly and other places is divided from high to low, and is divided into big belly, medium belly and sashimi.
The thinner and redder the fish, the more suitable it is for sashimi, but the taste is much worse than the fatter fish.
In a short time, the dining room was ready, and there were young maids from the palace. After washing their hands, they divided the dishes and provided them with exquisite decorations and dipping sauces.
The jade plate with the dragon pattern on it was Zhao Huaizhong's special vessel, and what was placed in it was the meat from the chin of the best fish.
The prepared fish, sashimi, dipping sauces, and braised shrimps were brought out one after another along with the low mats on the table.
Kong Sheng looked at the plates of raw meat in front of him, frowned and said: "We have evolved from ancient times and do not eat raw food. Everything in our mouths is cooked with fire. How can we go back to the ancient times? This food is not elegant."
While he said that eating raw meat was indecent, he also said that he was looking out for the Emperor's face and reluctantly picked up a bite and ate it.
Hey... when the fish entered his mouth, Kong Sheng had a vivid expression of surprise on his face.
He has always tasted delicious food and is a gourmet. He is willing to stay in Qin land instead of returning to the immortal world. This is one of the reasons why Qin Palace has all kinds of delicacies.
The top-quality tuna, the meat in the belly of the fish is plump and has a delicate texture that melts when you take a bite. Not only does it not have the fishy smell as expected, but it also has a sweet aftertaste.
Keep lips and teeth fresh!
This fish is very delicious. Kong Sheng blinked his eyes and picked up another piece, then the third piece...four, five, six or seven pieces, endlessly, and his chopsticks became more and more smooth.
I couldn't stop eating, one bite after another.
"Any more?"
Two voices sounded at the same time.
Qiang Liang also disliked eating meat like this at first because the portion was too small.
But after eating it, I had the same reaction as Kong Sheng.
Pick up the meat, dip it in the sauce, put it in your mouth, chew it, swallow it, and be satisfied. This is a series of processes, an endless loop.
Fortunately, no one catches bluefin tuna in this era. Only Zhao Huaizhong sent people out to sea to catch it.
If you use practice to cheat and capture, the food is quite sufficient and you can eat it in large quantities.
Kong Sheng ate very happily and gulped down the food.
Qiang Liang asked while eating: "Human Emperor, I will join the Qin Dynasty and fight for you. How about you be responsible for providing me with this kind of fish every day?"
As expected, the great witches are all hard workers, and they sold themselves just for the sake of fish... Zhao Huai thought: This guy can't even feed a thousand pigs at one meal. If I raise you for a month, the tuna in the sea will become extinct.
Zhao Huaizhong turned to business matters.
"Last time, I asked all the saints to work together to deduce the military formation. Some saints suggested that I use the technique of flag formation to coordinate with the military formation to increase its change and power.
I want to study the cooperation of the flag formation and the military formation with the saints again."
Everyone chatted while eating and started to deduce the military formation.
Fairyland!
At the northernmost tip of the northern state, there is a vast mountain called Duanjie Mountain. The mountain is bitterly cold and covered with ice for thousands of miles.
The reason why it is called Duanjie Mountain is because the mountain range stretches so long that it is said that it can extend to the northern border of the fairyland. Beyond it is the boundless chaotic time and space, hence the name.
After the demon clan was defeated and the demon master was killed, most of the demon army was wiped out, while a small number were surrendered by the monsters.
But there are still two demon tribes that fled.
One of them is stationed in the northern state of the fairy world, the core area where the demon clan has been operating for the longest time.
After the demon master was killed, they immediately retreated to the bitter cold land in the north and hid deep in the Broken Boundary Mountain, unable to come out. Thus, they temporarily escaped the pursuit and suppression of the demons, goddesses, immortals and other troops, and became a fish that slipped through the net.
.
At this moment, deep in the Duanjie Mountain, on the top of the snow-capped mountains, there is a simple stone temple carved into the mountain that is filled with evil spirit.
This is the place where the remnants of the demon clan lurk.
In the temple, the great demon god Shang Yang, dressed in bronze armor, is receiving visitors.
The visitor came quite unexpectedly, claiming to be from outside the Three Realms. He had started contacting Shang Yang a few days ago. This was not the first time the two parties had contacted each other.
"You want me to lead my troops to attack the human race in the fairy world?"
Shang Yang has a thin face and a pair of eyes that are full of evil and deceitful, staring at the visitor in front of him.
"That's right."
Sitting opposite Shang Yang was also a great demon. He had a middle-aged appearance and a strong aura. He made no secret of it and steadily overwhelmed Shang Yang. He was at the pinnacle of creation.
He is an immortal demon clan outside the Three Realms, one of the five commanders under the Demon Emperor Qingri, and calls himself the Demon Saint of Dayan Heaven.
Qingri wants to rule the demon world and replace the demon queen, and his subordinates all call him the demon emperor.
"You should know the momentum and power of the Human Emperor. Our demon clan was no match for it at its peak. Not only the Demon Emperor, but also the Demon Lord were killed one after another, and millions of demons were also defeated by it.
Now that there are only ten of my subordinates under my command, how can I still compete with them?
If you let me take action, it will be like committing suicide." Shang Yang said solemnly.
To be continued...
