For ordinary people, a year is neither long nor short.
But for some practitioners who have been practicing in closed doors all year round, it may only be a blink of an eye.
Since the news of the Han Li Mahayana celebration came out, some practitioners from the nearby area immediately began to enter the city one after another like ants.
As time approached day by day, more and more monks appeared near Tianyuan City, and some strong monsters from afar began to appear.
Some of these cultivators entered Abyss Sky City directly, while others only lived temporarily in some mountains near Abyss Sky City.
When it was less than a month before the Mahayana celebration, more cultivators rushed to the giant city like a tide, and hundreds of thousands of people poured in almost every day, making the giant city that seemed a bit empty become lively and extraordinary .
However, some practitioners in and outside the city took advantage of this opportunity to actively interact with other well-known people for a long time, build relationships with each other, or began to organize various small trade fairs frequently to obtain the necessary resources from each other.
And Tianyuan City is not far behind, almost every five or six days, an official auction will be held in the city.
At the auction, all kinds of rare and exotic objects, natural materials and earthly treasures appeared frequently one after another, and even the elders of Abyss Tiancheng also gained a lot at the auction, and got some elixir and rare objects that could not be obtained normally, and they couldn't help laughing. .
When there were only a few days left before the celebration, practitioners who were originally entrenched in the nearby mountains also began to pour into Tianyuan City in large numbers.
Even though Abyss Sky City was extremely huge, with so many mid-level and high-level beings pouring in at once, it began to become crowded.
Everywhere was overcrowded, and some practitioners were even unable to find a place to stay.
Tianyuan City didn't dare to be negligent after knowing this matter. After some discussion, it immediately decided to give up the stone towers where some guards lived, and at the same time opened some underground palaces to the outside world, and built a large number of people in several remote corners of the city overnight. Temporary attic halls for accommodation.
In this way, the problem of staying in Tianyuan City was barely solved.
Of course, due to too many outside cultivators, various other troubles naturally continued one after another, but the elders of Tianyuan City were not idle people, and after frequent interventions, they were finally resolved one by one. In fact, everyone knows very well that it is naturally impossible for so many people to participate in the Mahayana celebration. Among them, there are probably less than one hundred people who can really participate in the grand ceremony.
Most of them are probably looking for a chance to come here.
Everyone knows that there may not be a second gathering that can bring so many mid-level and high-level practitioners together in the next few thousand years, or even ten thousand years.
As long as you are smarter, you may be able to find your own opportunities in it, or worship a teacher, or directly join a certain sect, or find the spiritual object that you have been looking for for many years from others...
Regardless of the result, it is a great opportunity for them.
This morning, when the sky was still a little gray, in the center of Tianyuan City, in a square that could not be seen to the end, a white and clean platform with a height of more than ten feet was suddenly built at no time.
On the high platform, there is an unknown object covered by a golden cloth.
Three or four feet high!
Standing beside him was a tall, half-naked, bulging muscular man with no expression on his face.
But the area around the stage was surrounded by tens of thousands of guards wearing various armors.
And among these guards, the silver-haired old man and a group of Tianyuan City elders were actually inside.
All the combined beings looked up at the sky that had just started to turn red, with a calm look on their faces.
Not long after, the first ray of sunlight finally penetrated from the red clouds in the sky.
"Okay, it's time, start striking the bell!" Elder Gu's eyes flashed, he turned his head, and suddenly gave a low voice to the wrestlers on the stage.
"yes!"
Li Shi agreed blankly, took a sudden step, and grabbed the golden cloth in front of him with a big hand, revealing the true face of the thing covered under it.
It turned out to be a huge silver clock floating out of thin air, with five-color spiritual scripts all over the surface, luxurious and mysterious.
Lushi's other hand had five fingers, a golden light flashed, and a long golden hammer appeared in his hand.
Move your shoulders.
The wrestler grabbed the hammer with both hands at the same time, and after a round, he slammed it away at the huge silver clock.
"Boom"!
Where the golden hammer hit, circles of silver halos suddenly lit up, spreading in all directions.
In the silver light, the five-color inscriptions on the giant clock came alive one after another, flying out from the clock in a flash, flying up and down around the entire jade platform.
The sound of the bell was even more strange, it didn't seem to be very big at first, but after a little distance, it rang loudly, and the farther the distance was, the more deafening the bell sounded.
In an instant, the sound of the bell could be heard clearly and abnormally in every corner of Abyss Tian City.
At first, the people who heard the bell didn't care.
After the continuous ringing of the bell, no matter the ascetics who were meditating with their eyes closed, or the friends and relatives who were partying all night, their faces changed drastically, and some people even cried out : "The bell is shaking, the celebration has begun."
Many people ran away without saying a word, and some people immediately greeted other acquaintances nearby, and left the residence in a hurry.
They rushed to the place where the bell rang.
However, among the majority of foreign cultivators in Tianyuan City, those whose cultivation level was not too high, still stayed in the residence with regrets on their faces, and did not take any other actions.
The bell rang one after another, and after ringing nine, nine and eighty-one times, it stopped abruptly.
At this time, some cultivators who lived nearby came to the square first, but they saw many Tianyuan City guards and a group of elders in the center. Can't help but be astonished.
Seeing this, the silver-haired old man smiled slightly, and moved his lips, as if he was speaking to someone.
Immediately, a white light array flickered around the square, and more soldiers rushed out of it. With the shaking of their figures, groups of soldiers surrounded the entire square for several more floors, temporarily stopping the cultivators who rushed over. outside.
So many armored soldiers appeared here, the people who came here were shocked, but no one rushed into it rashly.
At the same time, the soldiers near the high platform suddenly changed their formation, creating more than a dozen open spaces out of thin air.
In the center of the open space, there were more than a dozen temporary teleportation circles.
When the practitioners who came from a distance saw these teleportation circles, many of them were stunned, but some of them were still confused after looking around.
"Senior Han should have started as well. It's not because time is too tight that he can't finish what he said. It's really like this, but the celebration will be missed." Fairy Silver Light looked at more and more people outside the surrounding square. Those who participated in the celebration asked a little uneasy.
"The power of a Mahayana monk is far beyond what we can imagine. Since Senior Han gave me an order a year ago, naturally there can be no mistakes. Fellow Daoist Silver Light, just rest assured." The silver-haired old man smiled slightly Said.
"Senior Han, as the third Mahayana of our two races, this trivial matter is naturally not difficult. However, Senior Han asked me to take away nearly one-third of the city's storage, although it is only some ordinary items. There are many refining materials, but the quantity is too large." The man in black robe nearby said with a wry smile.
"Hey, no matter how many there are, they are just some ordinary materials. You just need to spend more time collecting them. If you can use them to form a good relationship with Senior Han, what are these mere materials?" the silver-haired old man said. He smiled, shook his head and said.
"Hehe, brother Gu's words are very true. It seems that Daoist Gu is the most far-sighted person among me and others." Zen Master Jin Yue said with a smile on the side.
In a certain stone pagoda, Han Li was resting his eyes with his eyes closed, but his body was shrouded in a layer of purple-gold flame, which was erratic.
But when the eighty-one bells faintly heard in his ears ended, Han Li's expression changed slightly, he finally opened his eyes, and said to himself with a smile: "The time is just right, and the thing happened just in time The sacrifice is completed, enough for this celebration."
The voice just fell!
Han Li closed his hand with one hand, and the purple and golden flames on his body disappeared out of thin air. At the same time, he opened his mouth again, and another ball of silver flames spewed out.
And in the silver light, a three-color hill loomed, as if it was not a real entity.
Han Li looked Xiaoshan up and down, with a hint of satisfaction on his face, raised his arm, and pointed at the thing in front of him.
Immediately, the silver flame flickered, and the hill erupted with dazzling brilliance. After a blur, it disappeared from Han Li's body without a trace.
The next moment, in the sky thousands of feet above the plaza in the center of Abyss Sky City, the space fluctuated together, and after a silver light flashed, a three-color hill several inches in size silently emerged.
"Boom" a thunderbolt from the clear sky!
Surrounded by countless golden electric arcs, the three-colored hill began to grow wildly. After a few flashes, it turned into a gigantic size of more than a hundred feet, and began to exude a terrifying aura that made people tremble.
The fluctuations next to the three-color mountain peak were together again, and Han Li's figure emerged nearby. After looking down at the densely packed crowd around the square below, a mysterious smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and then he glanced at the mountain in front of him. He opened his mouth and blew at him.
A ball of green energy was shot out instantly, and disappeared in a flash before disappearing into it.
The three-color giant peak suddenly turned around, and the three-color runes rushed out of the surface, and at the same time exuded a terrifying aura that made people tremble.
Immediately, there was a thunderous roar in the sky in all directions, and the heaven and earth vitality in the entire sky surged wildly, and turned into strands of five-colored rays of light, rolling towards the sky above the square.
Under the silver light on the surface of the three-color mountain peak, the vitality of heaven and earth was sucked in, and at the same time, the volume swelled wildly again.
