[I have a cold and a fever, and I feel very uncomfortable]
When she saw the calamity clouds appearing over the palace, she had guessed that the one who was going through the calamity must be Yi Tianxing. No one except him could go through seven calamities at once. Only with a strong foundation could one achieve success in one go and completely integrate the seven souls. This was undoubtedly a big step forward in the Dharma Realm, and many cultivators needed to go through several years, even decades, or even hundreds of years to go through this process.
This speed can be described as monstrous.
However, the Child Emperor not only had no fear, but was even more awed by it, and developed an inexplicable worship and respect for it. The stronger it was, the more it was worshiped as a belief. That kind of respect came from the heart and from the soul.
"Child Emperor, what's the matter?"
Yi Tianxing raised his eyes to look at the Child Emperor and asked.
Knowing that he was in seclusion, she still came to knock on his door. It is conceivable that there must be something important on his hands that she could not decide.
"Your Majesty, it is indeed a big event."
The Child Emperor took a deep breath and immediately told the news that the Heavenly Disaster Palace had discovered, leaving out nothing.
"The alien tribes have begun to unite again, and are still discussing making sacrifices. Among the sacrifices, there are actually humans, various poisonous creatures, and ferocious beasts. What do they want to do? The alien tribes have joined forces to make sacrifices. They are preparing to give me a great gift."
When Yi Tianxing heard this, his pupils shrank slightly and he sneered.
Sacrifice, to whom, and what do you want to gain
There is no doubt that the reason why the alien races gathered together must be because of the sudden expansion of Dayi, which made all the alien tribes have a strong sense of crisis. This crisis naturally made them unite with each other. They wanted to do something big. Moreover, it can be guessed that the target is 90% sure to be Dayi.
"According to the investigation of the Calamity Palace's Calamity Guards, these sacrifices seem to be pulled to an altar. As for where the altar is, up to now, we have not obtained any specific and accurate information."
The Child Emperor continued.
"The altar is indeed a place for sacrifice."
A solemn look flashed across Yi Tianxing's eyes.
Over the years, he has discovered one thing: anything related to the altar must be an extremely incredible event. The beings that are related to it are all extraordinary masters, or even some kind of gods or demons.
For example, the altar that the Scorpion Tribe used to worship. The dark altar that I encountered when I met Nannan. There is also the altar that was seized from the Troll Tribe, and the blood demon altar that I saw when I fought with the orc army. All of these altars have mysteries and incredible powers, and the altars have one thing in common, that is, sacrifice.
This altar requires sacrifices and offerings to obtain the various treasures you want and fulfill your wishes. Otherwise, the altar will not respond.
There must be some rules here.
What is an altar, what does it represent, and what is its significance.
There is no doubt that many alien tribes should have some records and understanding of this. However, because a large number of strong people of the human race were sealed, most of the people left behind were ordinary people with weak bodies. In fact, they were slaughtered by alien races and their civilization was almost cut off. They suffered a devastating blow. Under such a disaster, it was extremely difficult to preserve some civilization in the city.
It can be said that Dayi was completely rebuilt from the ruins. Although the efforts of the people of Dayi eventually brought the civilization of the human race back to life, there is also the Sutra Library, which gathers the classics from all over the world. From the classics, the civilization and wisdom of the human race are continued, inherited, and even a new civilization is created.
However, there are very few records about the altar.
But sacrifice has always played an important role in human history. Sacrifice is even included in the etiquette. It is important to know that only with etiquette can human morality and civilization be extended and developed. Sacrifice is the most important thing in etiquette. In sacrifice, the altar is a must. Without the altar, there is no sacrifice. This is the difference between orthodox and unconventional.
When a monarch changes, the monarch must go to the altar and offer sacrifices to the heavens. This is to establish his own status and legitimacy. The ancestral temple must offer sacrifices, but ordinary ancestral temple sacrifices are not allowed to set up altars, and can only be worshipped in the ancestral hall. This is because the ancestral temple, a small sacrifice, is not qualified to bear the specifications of the altar sacrifice. If the altar is used for sacrifice, it is a violation of etiquette and will damage the fortune.
Only royal families are qualified to set up altars. Even more, they can only ascend the altar and perform sacrifices during grand sacrifices. There are so many rules and they are so complicated that most people are not aware of them at all.
But just like offering sacrifices to the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, offering sacrifices to gods, etc., the altar is a must-have, absolutely indispensable, and the specifications are naturally beyond ordinary.
Now, in the Eternal Continent, the altar is obviously more important, and it represents extraordinary significance.
This can be seen from the importance that the alien races attach to the altar.
When it comes to the altar, nothing is so simple.
“However, even if there is a person with incredible magical powers behind each altar, he is just hiding in the dark. It is absolutely impossible for him to appear under the seal of the Heavenly Dao. Otherwise, if he dares to take action personally, he will be suppressed by the Heavenly Dao.”
Yi Tianxing said calmly.
He didn't think that the powerful people who were sacrificed could really do it themselves. The possibility was not high, but sacrifice would definitely give feedback. In particular, the more sacrifices were made, the more feedback would be given. Some kind of treasure, some kind of top immortal treasure that could improve cultivation, these were all completely possible.
Whatever these alien races are planning, there is no doubt that it is a big deal.
"Cao Zhengchun."
Yi Tianxing opened his mouth and uttered a word.
"The old slave is here."
Cao Zhengchun agreed respectfully outside the door.
"Immediately notify Zhuge Liang, Mr. Huang, Military Advisor Jia and others to come to Chaotian Palace."
"Yes, I understand."
When Cao Zhengchun heard this, he agreed decisively.
Then, he disappeared from the door.
"Let's go to Chaotian Palace."
Yi Tianxing glanced at the Child Emperor and stood up.
Then he turned around and headed towards Chaotian Palace.
Cao Zhengchun's communication speed was naturally very fast. Before long, Jia Xu and others had arrived at Chaotian Hall.
There were not many people in the hall, only Yi Tianxing, Tong Huang and others. As for the others, no further notification was given.
"Child Emperor, please tell everyone the information you have obtained."
When Yi Tianxing saw that everyone had gathered, he immediately gestured to the Child Emperor.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
The Child Emperor nodded in agreement, and then reiterated the intelligence he had obtained.
After listening to this, the hall fell into silence. This was not a silence, but everyone was secretly sorting out the information they had just received in their minds, finding some key points from it, and deriving countermeasures.
"Your Majesty, this is obviously because many foreign tribes are unwilling to be suppressed by our Great Yi Immortal City, but they cannot easily break into the city. No one is willing to pay a heavy price. In this case, sacrifice is one of their best options. The only question is who they choose to sacrifice. However, no matter which one, their ultimate goal is to destroy our Great Yi Immortal City. This matter must be prevented."
Huang Chengyan took a deep breath and spoke decisively.
Between his eyebrows, the Confucian spirit of righteousness flows, and in his eyes there is the light of wisdom.
Reading can make you wise. The higher the level of Confucianism practice, the faster your mind will function and the clearer it will be. You will not be blinded by external things.
"Well, what Mr. Huang said is right. If the aliens intend to offer sacrifices, then it is certain that the rewards they receive will pose a fatal threat to the Immortal City. We cannot wait for the aliens to complete the sacrifice. According to what Xu knows, many tribes of the aliens worship demon gods or even their own powerful ancestors. There may be altars in the tribe, but each tribe regards these altars as extremely precious and will not easily let outsiders know about them or even touch them. Since the aliens have united to offer sacrifices, it is very likely that the altars they offer sacrifices on do not belong to any alien race."
After a moment of silence, Jia Xu spoke.
"Yes, Liang also thinks that the aliens can join forces when they don't trust each other. First, it's the pressure from our Dayi, and second, they think the altar they chose is extremely fair to all the alien tribes. It can be accepted by everyone. The ownerless altar in the wilderness may be the most critical point. Instead of passively accepting the attacks of the aliens, it is better to take the initiative and seize the initiative."
Zhuge Liang also nodded in agreement.
He looked at Jia Xu and nodded to each other.
With their wisdom, they determined at the first moment that the probability of this happening was extremely high.
"Your Majesty, Liang thinks this might be an opportunity. If the alien tribes were scattered and existed in the wilderness, the energy and cost required to wipe them out would be extremely staggering. Now, there is a chance to gather these elite aliens in one place. This might be a good opportunity to solve the problem once and for all. We can use their tricks to capture them all when they are offering sacrifices."
Zhuge Liang said calmly.
This kind of opportunity is so rare that he can't help but want to catch them all in one swoop and completely weaken the threat of foreign races in the territory of Dayi.
"What about the human beings who were captured by the alien race? How can they survive if a war breaks out?"
Huang Chengyan frowned slightly and spoke.
According to intelligence, the number of human beings sacrificed by these alien tribes may reach millions. If we really ignore their lives, it will definitely cause an irreparable sin of killing.
Upon hearing this, Zhuge Liang said, "Of course we have to rescue these human civilians. Before we take action, as long as we complete the siege, we can use our magical powers to confuse the aliens with fog and other means. In the fog, we can send out elite scouts to rescue the human civilians, and then we can encircle and suppress the aliens." Obviously, this had already been taken into consideration in his mind.
