In the midair on both sides of the main hall, there are two wide platforms suspended in the air. Rows of seats are placed on them. Obviously, they are the positions prepared by the patrons. At this moment, many people are already sitting on them.
Liu Ming's figure flashed, flew to a platform with a small number of people, found a chair and sat down.
Sitting here, the field of vision is more open.
In front of the two platforms, there is a tall square altar. The whole body of the altar is made of a strange black stone. In the center stands a statue of a fifty-foot-sized demon holding an iron gun, which looks lifelike. .
The four corners of the altar each have a tall statue of about ten feet, but it is the head of four human animals. The colors are different. They are the figure of a tiger head, a figure of a lion head, a figure of a wolf head, and a figure of a leopard head.
Although the styles of the four statues are rough, they are also extremely realistic, and their ferocious aura is about to break through.
The light in Liu Ming's eyes flickered, and Motian must have planned for him to come to attend this ceremony, but he didn't know what his purpose was.
This kind of imperial palace has restrictions and protections, which was expected, but the strange feeling when he first entered the palace made him very concerned.
But at this moment, I feel it again, but I can't perceive it anymore.
During Liu Ming's observation of his surroundings, many family patriarchs came one after another.
Liu Ming basically didn't know any acquaintances, he looked around for a while, then closed his eyes, and quietly waited for the ceremony of setting up the Crown Prince.
"Dare to ask your Excellency, but is it Liu Ming, the head of the Quanzhou Qing Family?" At this moment, a voice came over.
Liu Ming opened his eyes. At this moment, a fat young man who looked white and fat was standing beside him with a smile on his face.
"It's Liu Ming below, sir?" Liu Ming looked up at the fat man, stood up, and said calmly.
Although the man who appeared suddenly looked fat, his cultivation had reached the late stage of the astronomical state.
He has no impression of this person, he should have never seen him before, and he has almost no acquaintances here, and he is surprised that the other person can find himself at a glance.
"Patriarch Liu is really easy for me to find. I myself, Zhao Zhen, is the Patriarch of Zhao's Family in Wangzhou and the cousin of Her Royal Highness Princess Ying. He has long heard of Patriarch Liu's name. It is a great honor to finally see Patriarch Liu today." Young Fatty's face Filled with smiles, he smiled and introduced himself.
Liu Ming's face changed slightly when he heard this.
"It turned out to be Patriarch Zhao. Just now Liu Ming was rude, please forgive Brother Zhao!" Liu Ming bowed his hand with a smile on his face.
"Liu Patriarch is too polite, sit down." Zhao Zhen sat down on the chair next to Liu Ming, and said with a laugh.
Liu Ming's eyes flashed slightly. Judging from what Huangfu Yupo said yesterday, his relationship with Zhao Qianying shouldn't be known to anyone else.
"Does Patriarch Zhao know what to do from Princess Ying?" He asked calmly on his face.
"Haha, yes, although Princess Ying and I are just cousins, Princess Ying’s mother is the teacher of my younger brother. It can be said that Yinger and I grew up together. When I visited her in the Devil’s Palace five years ago, I heard from her. Said something about Patriarch Liu." Zhao Zhen said with a smile.
Then he suddenly got close to Liu Ming, and said mysteriously: "Unexpectedly, Patriarch Liu participated in the last trip to the Demon Abyss, so I really admire him."
"Patriarch Zhao passed the award, but it was just a meeting, and Liu was seriously injured inside and almost lost his life in it." Liu Ming felt relieved. It seems that this person doesn't know much, at least he doesn't know him and Zhao Qianying. Relationship.
At this time, it was too early for the ceremony, and Liu Ming had nothing to do, so he accompanied Zhao Zhen to chat at will.
This Zhao Zhen has a somewhat familiar character, seems to be quite interested in Moyuan, and keeps asking about Liu Ming's experience in it.
Liu Ming picked up some less important things and told Zhao Zhen. At the same time, he inquired about Zhao Qianying and the Huangfu family. The conversation between the two was quite speculative.
The Zhao family in Wangzhou was an in-law family of the Huangfu family, so Zhao Zhen knew a lot about the central dynasty, and he liked to show off. Liu Ming learned a lot about the Huangfu family from him.
The two chatted and talked about the choice of the crown prince this time.
Zhao Zhenhuafeng turned and asked, "Brother Liu, have you been to Kunxin Temple before?"
"It's the first time that the Patriarch who is in a small place, even the Central Imperial City, has come to this Kunxin Temple?" Liu Ming shook his head and smiled bitterly.
"Liu brother may not know that this is a frustration. Unlike other places, this Kunxin Temple is the training place of the first generation of the Central Dynasty Demon Emperor. It has been in existence for hundreds of thousands of years." Zhao Zhen looked around. Look, then he lowered his voice somewhat mysteriously.
There was a flash of surprise in Liu Ming's eyes, but he did not expect that the palace here had such a big background.
"Kun Heart Hall is completely made of pure black magic spar. Look at the floor, walls, and the altar in front. This black magic spar is extremely rare, and a small one is invaluable. Now It is the total amount of all the Black Yao Demon Spars in the Ten Thousand Demon Continent, I am afraid it is less than half of this hall!" The fat man said in admiration.
There was a flash of light in Liu Ming's eyes. He had never heard the name of Heiyao Demon Spar. The black stone in this hall was so rare and precious. Could it be because of its ability to devour God's consciousness
"By the way, I heard that the prince of the Central Dynasty was not personally selected by His Majesty the Demon Emperor. I don't know if that is the case?" Liu Ming quickly moved his mind away from the Black Yao Demon Spar and asked a long-held question in his mind.
"Hey, I didn't expect Patriarch Liu to even know about this. This is the secret of the Huangfu family and the entire Ten Thousand Demon Continent." Zhao Zhen gave Liu Ming a surprised look and said.
"It just happened to have heard a little from the hearsay, nowhere is it like Patriarch Zhao, who knows all about the present." Liu Ming smiled faintly, seemingly flattering the other party casually.
Sure enough, Zhao Zhen was very helpful to this, and said with a smile: "Where is it, Brother Liu has passed the award. Anyway, I can see it after Patriarch Liu, and I don't have anything to say now."
"The Huangfu Dynasty selects the next demon emperor through the dynasties. As Liu Family Master said, it is not a man-made selection, but a treasure of the town clan that is handed over to the Central Dynasty. It is selected from all the descendants of the Huangfu family." Zhao Zhen approached. After Liu Ming, his tone was a little mysterious.
"There are such things..." Liu Ming's expression was startled, feeling a little absurd.
The choice of the dignified Devil Emperor was actually handed over to a treasure to decide.
"I know what Patriarch Liu thinks, but this is true. It is said that the virtual magic cauldron is extremely psychic and is no longer in the category of ordinary magic weapons. It is said that the grade has surpassed the magic weapons of the sky." Zhao Zhen said with interest.
Liu Ming's face changed slightly when he heard this, and he surpassed the magic treasure of the cave. Could it be that the virtual magic cauldron is the same mysterious treasure as the Mirror of Heaven
As the two were talking, a side door in the main hall slowly opened.
Huangfu Yong took Huangfu Yupo, Huangfu Zhantian and another ferocious silver-haired man walked into the main hall. Behind them were more than a dozen direct descendants of the Central Dynasty, and Zhao Qianying was also among them.
Liu Ming's brows moved slightly. Although the woman looked innocent at the moment, there was a faint look between her brows, and she couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
The patriarchs of the aristocratic families on the two platforms saw this scene, and suddenly fell silent, only the sound of footsteps echoed in the empty hall.
The three elders behind Huangfu Yonghe looked solemn and solemn, while the faces of all the princes and princes were somewhat nervous.
The group of people kept walking, walked straight to the altar, and then turned to face forward.
Zhao Qianying turned her head slightly and glanced at the crowd on the platform, then lowered her head.
"This time my Huangfu family selects the crown prince, and I invite all the heads of the family to watch the ceremony here and be a testimony." Huangfu Yong declared loudly.
As soon as the words fell, the patriarchs on the platform stood up one after another, headed by the patriarchs of the three great families, bowed to Huangfu Yong.
Huangfu Yong said something in his mouth and waved his hand to play a magic trick.
A purple light flashed near the two platforms, and a purple light curtain emerged, covering the two platforms.
Seeing this, the faces of the people on the platform changed a little, and they became a little commotion.
Liu Ming's face changed slightly, and the purple light curtain isolated his spiritual consciousness, but there were no restrictions on the other five senses.
"During the selection period, in order to avoid interference, this layer of barrier was laid down, please don't mind." Behind Huangfu Yong, the elder Huangfu Zhantian stepped forward and said.
Hearing this, everyone on the platform looked calm.
"Then, let's start now." Huangfu Yong stopped looking at the platform, turned and looked at the more than a dozen princes and princes on the altar.
Zhao Qianying and the others promised, and then they broke apart, sitting in a circle around the statue in the center of the altar.
"These imperial children seem to be the lowest demon in the astronomical realm!" On the platform, Liu Ming's eyes flashed and said in his mouth.
"Of course, the minimum requirement to participate in the selection ceremony is the astronomical state, otherwise you will be bustling because you can't bear it!" Fatty Zhao Zhen said disapprovingly.
Liu Ming nodded slowly.
Huangfu Yong nodded slightly to the three of Huangfu Zhantian. The three of Huangfu Zhantian understood, and flew over the altar, showing a triangular shape.
Huangfu Yong sat down on a futon in front of the altar, his face was solemn, and with a wave of one hand, he took out a purple booklet and read it in a low voice.
Liu Ming has very good ears. Huangfu Yong only read a piece of ordinary articles about worshiping ancestors and heaven and earth, but the length is very long. It took Huangfu Yong to read it for about half an hour.
Then Huangfu Yong raised his hand, and a purple book in his hand flew up, igniting a group of purple flames in the air, and soon disappeared without a trace.
Liu Ming's face condensed, knowing that when it finally started, the Fatty Zhao Zhen beside him also became serious.
