"Well, maybe there's one more thing you can do!"
After Meng Lao discussed with Su Nongying, Gongsun Sheng and others, he ordered everyone to enter a fighting state to prepare for the war with the Yingren.
Ji Ye couldn't help but have another idea when he saw the "Soul of Civilization" that had just exploded in his hand.
"Use this leader-level civilization soul to start a sacrifice. Anyway, you have advanced to the fifth level, so you don't have to worry about losing the power of luck if you fail!"
Yes, Ji Ye was determined to recruit an outstanding person to Erlong Village before this battle.
Theoretically, this "Soul of Civilization" is still at the fourth level of metamorphosis, but judging from the performance of the previous Yingren, it is likely that it is only a hair away from the fifth level of metamorphosis.
In Erlong Village, there are no "sacrifice" corresponding to the fourth level of mortal transformation at this time, but there are more advanced sacrifices...
It is the pair of excellent-quality sticks that were revealed by the King of Forest Monsters before and were made with the "Heart of Purple Wood". Their comprehensive level reaches the "Fifth Level of Metamorphosis"!
However, at this time, the two original big purple sticks had been "fused" into one by him.
[Purple Wood Stick]
Level: fifth level of metamorphosis
Grade: Perfect·Sacrifice
Description: The weapon is polished with the extremely rare Purple Wood Heart in the territory of the forest monster clan. After being 'fused', its power is fully stimulated, possessing the rare and extraordinary power of 'transformation' and 'absorption and release'. force!
"What if we can recruit another perfect person?"
"Then there should be no suspense about the odds of victory in the battle with the Yingren!"
With some expectations in his heart, Ji Ye placed the "Purple Wood Stick" and "Soul of Civilization" in his hand at the sacrificial position in the Qiyun Hall.
"Wow!"
The two dragons of luck emerged, whose bodies began to solidify, and each spit out a mouthful of golden light on the two items.
"Buzz!"
After this perfect quality sacrifice of the fifth level of mortal transformation was inspired by the power of luck spit out by the twin dragons of Erlong's village, the scene formed was different from the previous test scene.
The big stick polished by the Heart of Purple Wood unexpectedly expanded rapidly and transformed into a towering purple giant tree nearly 100 meters tall!
"Ula, Ula, Ula..."
Then, hundreds of forest monsters jumped down from the top of the giant purple tree, waving sticks in their hands and staring at the soul of civilization opposite.
"Does this...need to defeat so many forest monsters at once?"
This test is undoubtedly very difficult!
Although these forest monsters should not actually be at the level of transformation based on their aura, each of them is more than two meters in size, with four thick arms all wielding sticks, and a total of four hundred sticks swarmed up and smashed them randomly. ... Even if it is an outstanding person who has reached the fifth level of mortal transformation and has undergone a qualitative transformation, it is probably difficult to deal with it!
After all, the soul of civilization is only at the fourth level of transformation. Will the sacrifice this time really fail
Ji Ye frowned.
Because the soul of civilization seems to be unresponsive.
After all, it would definitely be very embarrassing if a hero chose to come here rashly, but couldn't defeat the "sacrifice" and went back in despair.
Especially since this is a perfect-grade sacrifice, the people that can be "linked" are all outstanding people with perfect potential, and they are less likely to come rashly without being sure!
"Well, there is a reaction!"
However, the soul of civilization was silent for more than ten seconds after being hit by the power of luck.
Ji Ye already thought that the sacrifice had failed and was inevitably disappointed.
"Buzz!"
The soul of civilization suddenly bloomed with a strong white light...
"The best among the horse infantry, he is respected within the sky, and the stars rain down from the sky. His eyes are like paint, his face is like silver, he is invincible with a spear two feet long, his body is like a unicorn and soaring clouds, his talents and martial arts are outstanding..."
At the same time, a bell-like sound also sounded in the main hall, and the sound rolled in, causing the faces of those forest monsters to show shock.
"This is… "
When Ji Ye heard the poem, his eyes suddenly lit up.
"That's right. Among the 108 people in Liangshan, he is the only one who can have full confidence to take on the perfect challenge of transcending levels!"
Then, a smile appeared on his face and he said softly.
Why did Ji Ye say that? Because in fact, the first two lines of the poem trumpet that sounded in the hall were enough to prove that the identity of the person being brought in this time was really extraordinary.
The first among the horse infantry, and the most respected among the Tiangang soldiers!
Only such people have the full confidence to leapfrog and challenge the perfect level of sacrifice.
The white light of the Soul of Civilization dissipated. Opposite the hundreds of forest monsters that looked irritable, shouted, and looked at them with hatred for revenge, a man appeared riding on a majestic white horse with unicorn pattern armor. A blurry-faced figure holding a long stick in his hand!
"Hoo, ho, ho..."
Hundreds of forest monsters suddenly roared, and then they all rushed towards the figure!
On one side were hundreds of aliens waving weapons in their hands menacingly, but on the other side were just one person, one horse and one stick.
However, the figure of the blurry figure is not weak at all in terms of momentum.
Even the white horse with a unicorn armor on his body didn't react much to this battle, and even shook its head and sneezed.
"Ta, Ta, Ta..."
Then, spurred by the figure on the horse, he rushed towards the oncoming "army" of forest monsters!
"Roar!"
A tall forest monster who ran the fastest jumped up using his legs that were not too strong. The sticks in his four thick arms swung towards the figure on the horse with a sweeping motion.
"puff!"
However, the stick in the figure's hand was faster than it, breaking through the gap between the swings of the four big sticks, and landed on the head of the forest monster like lightning.
"Bang!"
An explosion of power turned the forest monster into gray smoke!
"Pah, pah, pah!"
The next moment, the figure that collided with the large army of forest monsters was riding on a unicorn-armored white horse without a trace of hair. The wooden stick in his hand only shook slightly, but in an instant it turned into a large afterimage of the stick!
It was obviously just a stick in the hand, but it felt like it was more than hundreds of forest monsters swinging out sticks. The unicorn white horse passed by, and the forest monsters blocking the road were repelled one after another, and many forest monsters directly The pick flew into the air, and then was hit in the vital part by the stick and turned into gray smoke.
"Ta-ta-ta!"
Finally, after the horse rushed through the last forest monster that was sent flying and disappeared in the air, its speed did not slow down at all, and it rushed towards the giant purple tree. The shadow of the hero on the horse was as straight as a gun with a stick in his hand. With the energy of a dragon, he pierced directly into the giant purple tree during the high-speed charge.
"puff!"
The powerful force directly shattered the purple tree body with a diameter of more than two meters, hitting the "Heart of Purple Wood" hidden inside!
"Rumble..."
Then, the towering purple tree began to shrink.
Finally, the illusion disappeared, and a stick about two meters long appeared in the hall. It was polished like purple wood but also like purple jade, and had a pattern like a unicorn on the surface. It was held by the descending hero in his hand. .
"Buzz!"
And after holding it, the aura on Renjie's body actually broke through to the "fifth level of mortal transformation"!
And the true face of this outstanding figure who has surpassed the challenge is revealed - "bright eyes, eyebrows parted, nine feet of body like silver, majestic, and appearance like a god!"
[Lu Junyi]
Level: fifth level of metamorphosis
Level: Commander
Description: Titled Tiangang Star, nicknamed Yu Qilin, Governor of Liangshan, Deputy Marshal of the Army. Emphasis on love and righteousness, superior force, Hebei Jade Qilin, and a stick unparalleled in the world!
Yu Qilin, Lu Junyi!
Tiangang Xing, this title is enough to prove his status in "Water Margin".
In the minds of many people, the title "Tiangang" among the Thirty-Six Tiangangs of Water Margin must belong to Song Jiang!
But in fact, Song Jiang's title was "Tian Kuixing", and the word "Tiangang" fell on Lu Junyi in front of him.
In front of the "Zhongyi Hall" in Liangshan, a total of two red flags with embroidered characters were erected, one with the words "Shandong Hubaoyi" and the other with the words "Hebei Jade Qilin"!
The reason can be understood from one incident.
In a battle, Liangshan's army was dispersed by the enemy. Lu Junyi, who was riding alone, was besieged by four fierce generals of the Liao Kingdom. After a fierce battle, one of them was killed and the other three were frightened and fled.
And just after fighting the four generals, they immediately encountered about a thousand Liao soldiers. They rushed forward one man and one horse and killed them and scattered them.
This kind of battle where "one against a thousand" is even won is the only example in Water Margin.
This is also the reason why Lu Junyi can easily defeat hundreds of forest monsters. If it were any Water Margin hero, even with the power of Erlong Village's luck to suppress the sacrifices, it would be difficult to say that he could pass this test!
"The arrival of Leader Lu will be of great help to the next battle between the village and the Yingren!"
Ji Ye looked at this "Tiangang Star" with a smile on his face.
Strictly speaking, there is not just one choice for heroes. For example, Yang Zhi and Lu Zhishen, who were former officers of the Song Dynasty, can also choose to come to strongholds with a military background of the Song Dynasty. Wu Song can also choose Qinghe County, Jingyanggang, or even Liuzhou. A stronghold like the temple.
Lu Junyi is a figure second only to Song Jiang in Liangshan, and he can be regarded as the real leader of Liangshan. In "Water Margin", he is about the same as Lu Bu in "Three Kingdoms", and he is an "unparalleled" existence in the world.
At this time, Lu Junyi's main memory should still belong to the time before he went to Liangshan. As a wealthy man, he was willing to come to Erlong Village to "fall grass", but Ji Ye was a little surprised.
"The village master is so complimentary!"
"There are brothers Wu, Brother Lu, and Mr. Gongsun in Erlong Village. The foreigners are already turtles in the urn."
"It's really lucky for Lu to be able to catch up with the final battle with the foreign race, otherwise it will be a regret!"
Holding a long purple stick with a unicorn pattern in his hand, Lu Junyi had a smile on his face, but there was no hint of pride in his expression.
In theory, there are indeed many choices for outstanding people, but in reality, the choices are relatively few.
Just because ordinary strongholds simply cannot provide the sacrifices they need to arrive with full strength. Although they can choose to "downgrade" to descend, most heroes are definitely not willing to do that.
Of course, compared to this "Qilin Stick" that has reached the perfect grade, what Lu Junyi really values is undoubtedly the potential of Erlong Village.
Although coming to this mountain stronghold requires the leadership of Ji Ye, it may not be as good as some other strongholds, because the outstanding people themselves are strong enough and can take the lead after arriving!
But the saying "I'd rather have the head of a chicken than the tail of a phoenix" definitely doesn't make sense in a place of inheritance, because a correct choice here can really determine whether you will eventually become a "chicken" or a "phoenix"!
