Chapter 684 Highlight moment!
Chapter 684 Highlight moment!
Zijin Mountain is located in the east of Shenjing City.
The distance is not far, but it can’t be said to be too close, about ten miles or so.
This was originally a barracks for the garrison. Generally, there are at least 100,000 forbidden troops standing. The range is naturally wide, and the ground is also very flat.
Because it is considered a military camp, there are actually not many people who dare to come here for a stroll on weekdays, but today, it is different. If you look at it from a high place, it is basically a dark place.
The number of people exceeds ten thousand, covering the sky and the sun.
This is placed on flat ground, but if it is still endless when standing on a high place, then the number of people is not just as simple as over ten thousand.
The 300,000 elite forbidden troops were divided into four directions and formed an army formation.
In addition to this, there are more people in the capital and nearby, as well as those warriors in the rivers and lakes.
The Heaven Worship Ceremony is undoubtedly a grand event for many ordinary people. In fact, except for those knowledgeable and martial artists who criticize Jingtai verbally.
Many people don’t think so.
Because, for such a grand event, the general emperor would give amnesty, not to mention the world, but at least the people in the capital and Zhongzhou can still get a little benefit.
Otherwise, why would outsiders scramble to obtain a capital household registration?
Someone once joked that the dogs in the capital live better than the people in other states.
This sentence is biased, but it also proves something.
So, the people in the capital are really good.
Although Sima’s family is not well-known in Jianghu and other state capitals, it is still widely popular in Zhongzhou.
Yes, many people have smiles on their faces.
I feel that I can witness a grand event.
The predecessor of Zijin Mountain was Baizhang Mountain. Its name is very common, and the mountain is also very common. It is only a few hundred meters high in total, so it is naturally not too grand.
But that was before, and now.
After the imperial court’s rest, Baizhang Mountain has changed a lot.
The mountain that was originally bare is now covered with green. For those beings who are like gods and gods, such a method is very easy.
Yes, even in this autumn wind and the coming winter season, it can still make this mountain lush.
In addition to the greenery, there is also a step extending to the top of the mountain, which has just been built, and it is covered with various mysterious lines.
It seems to symbolize something.
As for the real top of Baizhang Mountain, it has been flattened, and a platform more than ten feet wide has been opened up, and on the platform, there is a giant tripod.
The huge tripod is several feet high, and its whole body is like ink. The walls of the tripod are also engraved with divine patterns, Qinglong, Xuanwu, Suzaku, and Xuanwu Qilin.
The origin of this tripod is also very extraordinary. There are rumors that it is one of the nine tripods left by Emperor Wu to suppress Kyushu in the Central Plains, and some people say that it is a divine tripod imitated by Chu Taizu.
is a ritual vessel specially used to pray to heaven.
But these rumors are always rumors, and there is no definite conclusion. The only thing that can be pointed out is that Jingtai wants to follow the example of the legendary Chu Taizu to worship his ancestors.
Whether it is the various divine lines of heaven and earth handed down from ancient books, or the giant tripod, it is the same.
Many common people and Jianghu warriors looked at the giant tripod with admiration, yearning, and anger in their eyes, which can be described as very complicated.
Many Jianghu people, before they came to the capital, said that they would smash the giant tripod to disrupt the ceremony of worshiping heaven in Jingtai.
But when he came near the Zijin Mountain and saw the black-armored sergeant who couldn’t see the end of his eyes, he immediately restrained his thoughts from the heart.
Change to observe the ceremony
What is the concept of 300,000 elite imperial troops?
Even if they can’t compare with the strongest army in the world like the Beiliang Army, but once the battle is over, under the immortals, who would dare to try their hand and fight against hundreds of thousands of troops with their own strength?
At least, 99% of the people present dare not.
In addition to fearing these elite sergeants, they also fear those sky patrolling guards who are dressed in black cloud suits and goose feather knives on their waists and hips like stakes, as well as those powerful men in the court.
Today, on the bright side alone, there are Four Great True Monarchs and more than ten Huayang Daoist Masters.
Even if it is a single immortal sect, it is absolutely not qualified to shake such court power.
The imperial court is very weak, but it is compared with the entire arena. Let alone the imperial court, even the royal court of the northern barbarians, and the demon tribe in southern Xinjiang, can they really overwhelm the arena of the central plains?
So, the strength of the imperial court is actually not weak at all. If the two kings of the north and the south sincerely submit to it, they will actually be stronger.
Facing such a powerful imperial court, many people lost their temper, and felt that they had little arms and legs, and it was enough to watch the excitement.
If you really go up, you will definitely end up dead without a whole body.
Near the Zijin Mountain, there are actually more than a million people gathered. If you listen quietly, you will only feel that the buzzing in your ears is annoying.
But really no one yelled and silenced.
There are no warriors in the rivers and lakes, and neither does the imperial court.
It seems that everyone is quietly waiting for a certain moment to arrive.
The 300,000 imperial troops are on the outermost side, as if they are guarding the gate, or they seem to be catching turtles in the human urn inside, basically locking the surrounding area firmly.
The second floor is where most of the common people are located. In fact, Zijin Mountain is already a little far away from here, but it can still be seen clearly.
Even though the grand ceremony has not yet started, there are still people standing on tiptoe to watch it.
The third layer is the relatively rare Jianghu warriors.
Thinness is also relative.
Only those who can enter the martial arts dare to be called Jianghu people.
Compared with hundreds of millions of Limin people, they are far behind.
Therefore, even if the warriors from all sides here add up, there are actually only nearly 100,000 people, and many people came from afar to watch the excitement.
Otherwise, just less.
As for how many ghosts and “righteousness” exist in this, it is not known.
At least, Chen Yuan, Jiang He, Lingxu and others are all in this list.
They did not release their spiritual sense to investigate, because it would reveal their identities. Correspondingly, the other powerful people from all parties did not use their spiritual sense to scan them foolishly.
The fourth floor is the military guards of the Sky Survey Division, basically standing in a line, separating the nobles on the third and fifth floors.
Here are the civil and military officials and their families in the court, as well as the harem concubines, the royal family, and some strong men from the Ministry of Rites.
Well, in front of them is a huge musical instrument that resembles a horn.
The sun was rising higher and higher, but because it was autumn, it was actually not hot, and no one was impatient, quietly waiting for the arrival of the emperor.
“It’s almost time.”
Taoist Lingxu suddenly spoke.
“It seems that Shushan has many records.”
The old Taoist Tianxu on the side laughed.
In the first meeting, he already recognized Taoist Lingxu’s identity. It’s not that the two sides have dealt with each other, but rumors in the world that Shushan has already allied with Taoist Temple.
With such a sword intent, besides Jiang He, it is Shushan.
“It seems that there is no Taixu Palace?”
Both belong to the immortal sect, even though Taixu Palace has been hidden from the world for many years, there are still some backgrounds.
They are also aware of the current arrangement.
The reason why Xianmen is called Xianmen is that in addition to the strength that is the best in the world, there are also thousands of years of inheritance.
Naturally, there are records about the time when Chu Taizu sacrificed to heaven and became emperor.
“The Taixu Palace is in ruins.”
The old Taoist Tianxu sighed.
If it wasn’t for his downfall, how could he have entered the world, and why would he bet on Chen Yuan?
I just want to take advantage of Chen Yuan’s shareholder style to rejuvenate the sect.
“There are still three nails on the broken ship, Daoist Tian Xu said too seriously.” Chen Yuan echoed.
“That’s not a flattering thing to say.”
“I’ll help you fix it later.”
“You are calm and relaxed.”
Taoist Tianxu looked at Chen Yuan’s expression and shook his head slowly.
“The matter has come to this point, what’s the use of worrying anymore? Jingtai is sure to kill me, and the court is sure to be destroyed. No matter how many arrangements Jingtai has, it will be useless to face the heroes of the world.”
Chen Yuan really thinks so. He is very dignified when facing Jingtai, but he has never panicked. After all, if Jingtai really has the power to overthrow everything.
It is not possible to make the current world like this.
As long as heroes from all over the world rush forward, even hundreds of thousands of troops, under many sun gods and true kings, are nothing but ants, nothing more.
Today, although he didn’t feel any breath, he can be sure.
There are definitely a lot of strong people coming today!
It’s a bit like the eighteen princes begging Dong Zhuo.
However, the premise is that they dare to fight.
If they all have the intention of reaping profits, then it is actually useless.
So, it is actually not an easy task to get those strong people to do it.
First of all, you have to show your strength!
Let people see hope.
“That’s true.”
Ling Xu smiled.
The layout of the imperial court is very deep, but they are not just for nothing.
Daoshen Palace, Taixu Palace, and Shushan Xianmen teamed up, and the number of Zhenjun dispatched has exceeded the number of palms, which is almost comparable to the previous battle.
As long as other forces take action, there is really no suspense today.
Jiang He was also beside the three of them, but he didn’t say a word, but quietly looked towards the deepest area, where Li Hongshuang was.
Li Kuangxiu was sitting beside him.
Taoist Tianxu looked up at the sun again, and said softly:
“coming!”
coming!
Really came!
From the direction of the capital, an undisguised golden glow shrouded over. Many people looked up subconsciously, only to see nine divine beasts pulling a dragon towards them.
There are real dragons and phoenixes, white tigers and unicorns, and golden cranes and white deer.
Such a miracle, for the ignorant people below, naturally admires it extremely, and the eyes are full of reverence for gods.
Tiger!
Tiger!
Tiger!
The 300,000 forbidden soldiers roared at the same time as if they had been rehearsed in advance, and the sound shook the sky!
Many of the people in the outer layer knelt down and shouted long live the emperor.
But for the martial arts experts on the third floor, they don’t feel anything.
Not to mention a real person in the fifth realm, even a grandmaster in the alchemy realm in the fourth realm can do similar things, although it can’t be done so finely.
But they can still see the essence through the phenomenon.
The various mythical beasts are all gathered by manipulating the vitality of heaven and earth.
“hehe.”
Taoist Tianxu suddenly laughed.
Chen Yuan on the side seemed to cooperate with a sentence:
“Why is the Taoist priest laughing?”
“It is recorded in ancient books that when the former Chu Taizu offered sacrifices to the heavens, all the mythical beasts pulled out by the dragon were real. This Jingtai is really very interesting to learn from.”
There are definitely mythical beasts in the world.
Although Chen Yuan has never seen anything else, the fire unicorn under the Tangshan Giant Buddha is one of the proofs, but such an existence has become increasingly difficult to find.
Chen Yuan was able to find Huo Qilin, which was also thanks to the Altar of Luck.
Jingtai couldn’t find it even if he wanted to.
Of course, he probably doesn’t have the strength to subdue the beast.
All gods and beasts are not weak in strength. Chu Taizu first became a martial god, and then gathered as a human emperor. His own strength has already reached the realm of fairy gods, and his strength is outstanding.
What about Jingtai?
At least when he didn’t turn the power of incense into his own body, on the surface he was only a celestial pill.
“It’s really interesting, let’s wait and see.”
Chen Yuan didn’t have any idea, just echoed casually.
Long Huan flicked across the sky, bringing up a piece of brilliance that covered the sky, and gradually fell from the void to the foot of the Zijin Mountain steps.
“See Your Majesty!”
The closest civil and military officials, honored family members, harem concubines, and royal family, including Li Kuangxiu, Gu Tianqiong and Sima Che, all knelt on the ground on one knee.
They didn’t have to kneel originally, but this is not an ordinary occasion. Before the emperor offered sacrifices to heaven, they had to kneel.
“See Your Majesty!”
The survey guards on the third floor also knelt on one knee at this moment.
“See Your Majesty!”
Most of the people on the fourth floor began to kneel, but there were very few who did not kneel.
As for the Jianghu warriors on the third floor, none of them knelt down!
Some people were overwhelmed by Jingtai’s aura and wanted to kneel down, but seeing that the people around them didn’t kneel, they finally didn’t pull down to kneel down to Jingtai.
He used to be called the dog emperor, but now he kneels down and proclaims himself a minister. Wouldn’t he be ridiculed in the future?
Anyway, if everyone doesn’t kneel, then I won’t either.
This is what many people think.
“See Your Majesty!”
No one on the third floor knelt down, but the 300,000 forbidden troops on the outermost side all hammered their chests and shouted.
With armor on his body, it is inconvenient to kneel down.
But it can be regarded as bowing down to salute.
And after everyone shouted, they shouted again:
“Long live Your Majesty!”
“Long live Your Majesty!”
“Long live Your Majesty!”
Jingtai wore a bright yellow dragon robe, looked ahead, and said in a deep voice:
“Flat body!!!”
Its sound is mighty, spreading all over the world.
“Thank you, Your Majesty!”
“Thank you, Your Majesty!”
“Thank you, Your Majesty!”
After thanking the emperor, everyone started to get up.
As for the Jianghu warriors on the third floor, no one looked at them, and no one scolded them, not even Jingtai himself.
Then, Jingtai turned around and stepped up the steps to the top of Zijin Mountain with a solemn expression.
As soon as you stepped on it, there was a mighty divine sound and shining light.
Like a ladder leading to heaven.
Every time he stepped out of a step, light would light up, and at the same time, the light behind him would not disperse.
Looking from a distance, it really looks like you are climbing a fairy.
The people below understood.
It turns out that the patterns engraved on the steps have such a function!
Simply put, it means to pretend. to compare.
“Fashionable.”
Jiang He, who hadn’t spoken for a long time, suddenly spoke.
Chen Yuan shook his head and retorted:
“This effect is what I want.”
If one day he worships the heavens and becomes the emperor, the scene will probably be even bigger than this. There is no way, which man can refuse such a scene?
He wanted to kill Jingtai, really wanted to kill him.
But after Jingtai appeared, he suddenly calmed down and watched the opponent’s movements quietly.
It can be regarded as temporarily restraining the killing intent.
“Ah”
Jiang He twitched the corner of his mouth and chuckled lightly, as if a little contemptuous, but he didn’t say anything else.
Jingtai’s gaze was also very calm. As he stepped onto the high platform step by step, his aura gradually changed. This was not an improvement, but a natural transformation.
His gaze gradually became serious and deep.
Is this the case with Human Emperor?
Coercion over the world, all people submit.
What he wanted, what he planned from the beginning, is finally about to come true today.
The top of the mountain is not high, but it is not low either. At least it will take some time to go up step by step, and Jingtai’s aura is gradually changing in front of everyone.
Civil and military officials surrendered, harem concubines surrendered, Li Kuangxiu and Gu Tianqiong beside him looked at each other, and seemed to understand something.
Road to the Emperor does seem to have something.
No wonder the emperor would rather risk the world’s displeasure to sacrifice to heaven in Zijin Mountain.
When Jingtai walked up the last step, his aura was already as deep as the abyss and the sea. Although his cultivation was still a celestial pill, his aura seemed to be swallowing thousands of miles.
Jingtai stood in front of the giant cauldron, and picked up three magical incense sticks from the table prepared beside him. They were specially used for worshiping ancestors and heaven, and they were very valuable.
Even just smelling it has the effect of refreshing and calming the mind.
And what he held in his hand were three sticks of incense that were half the height of a person.
is worth more.
Jingtai lit the incense. Jingtai bowed three times to the giant tripod and inserted it into the giant tripod. Then, he turned around, looked down at the millions below, and said loudly:
“The world is in chaos, the people are suffering, the monsters in the southern borders, the barbarians in the north, the Japanese slaves in the East China Sea, and the heroes of the rivers and lakes are all staring at each other now, promoting chaos for their own interests.
This is my fault. ”
“It’s because I didn’t guard the world well, which caused the world to be in trouble. These days, I can’t sleep at night, fearful in my heart, and desperately search for a way to save the people of the Central Plains. Now, I have found it.
Sacrificing to the heavens, I was promoted to the position of emperor, and I used the authority of the emperor to protect my people. I know that I have no achievements to smash the sky, and I have no force to overwhelm the world. It is really difficult to convince the people to be the emperor.
But this is the only way to save the people of the Central Plains.
For the sake of hundreds of millions of people in the world, even if I am criticized and criticized, I am willing to bear it. ”
The voice fell, and the world was quiet.
Jingtai did not stop there, he looked at the tens of thousands of Jianghu warriors below, and said in a deep voice:
“I know that some of you are dissatisfied, and even want to make trouble at this moment and disturb the ceremony of worshiping heaven, but for the sake of the people of the world, I still want to do this.
Anyone who refuses to accept it can step forward. Hundreds of millions of Li people are behind me, and I will take over together! ”
The nearly 100,000 Jianghu warriors below were in some commotion, and some wanted to step forward to scold them, but seeing that the people around them didn’t move, they didn’t dare to be the first bird.
Jiang He touched the Zhuxian Sword in his hand, and was about to see him, so he did it directly.
But Chen Yuan patted him on the shoulder.
“Ok?”
Jiang He turned his gaze to Chen Yuan, with some inquiring intent.
Chen Yuan smiled faintly, pointed at Jingtai above and said:
“Don’t rush to do it yet, the others haven’t moved yet.”
“Not your style.”
Jiang He frowned, he felt that Chen Yuan should be more impulsive than him.
Chen Yuan chuckled and said:
“At this time, it would be a pity not to pretend.”
——
Five thousand and two, make up a little bit first.
