Barber City was as lively as a pot of boiling porridge. It was obviously not summer yet, but it felt as if the entire Barber City was on fire. The entire Barber City was plunged into a carnival feast.
"The Controller of the Underworld, the Supreme Ruler of the Realm of the Dead, the Manager of Death and Souls!"
“May you grant us eternal life and the life to come!”
Dozens of people in the city used trailers and more than a dozen horses to drag the huge Death Statue, and transported it little by little to the square. The obviously terrifying and dark Death Statue was surrounded by so many people in broad daylight, accompanied by music. and dancing, coupled with the rain of flowers all over the sky, it looked extremely joyful.
Along the way, you can see underworld priests and believers scattering flower petals and splashing water. Many people kneel on the ground or follow the statues and cheer all the way.
The believers of the Pusut Dynasty are not afraid of death. For them, death is the continuation of life, or in a certain sense, they believe that death and life are one. They admire the afterlife and hope to obtain the blessings of the gods. Favor, enter the kingdom of death, and imagine eternal life or the afterlife, although most people do not have this qualification.
The square was filled with believers from the Sky Temple. These believers wore loose clothes belonging to the Batko area. Most of the clothes were relatively simple, exposing their arms or lower legs. Men, women, old and young gathered in the square, crossing their arms. Sitting and listening to the temple priests reading the Book of the Living and preaching the Sky Temple's doctrine of the afterlife in the underworld.
And more priests in robes sang songs praising the gods and danced to pray to the gods. Flowers were scattered everywhere, the music was melodious, and there were festivals everywhere in the city. The city gates were wide open, welcoming everyone who came. Believers in Barbour City, a large number of soldiers and temple priests maintain order, and groups of believers can be seen praying everywhere.
Believers praying and kneeling on the ground can be seen everywhere in squares, temples, miraculous sites, and statues of gods. The Pusut Dynasty was established nearly two hundred years ago. The belief in the Sky Temple has been deeply rooted in this area. Setisis’s view of To ordinary people, it is not only a king, but also represents faith and gods.
The population in the city is extremely dense. During this period of time, the number of outsiders in the entire huge city of Barbour has reached nearly 100,000, and the number is still increasing. Places for arranging accommodation and distributing food can be seen everywhere in the city. In order to hold this event, For this Day of the Dead, the Pusut Dynasty made very complete preparations.
"What a powerful dynasty!"
Jonathan was wearing a coat, a top hat and a cane, and followed the envoys of the Sheen City-State Alliance. In addition to the politicians of the Sheen City-State Alliance Parliament, he, Marina, and several alchemists were also accompanied. Among them, Marina is the most conspicuous.
As soon as they entered Barbour City, they attracted much attention. Immediately, temple priests came to greet them, and there were many eyes staring at them overtly or covertly, because Ms. Marina was in their team, but she was just It was just attention. No one pointed out Marina's identity, as if she was just an ordinary person who came with the envoy team.
When Marina entered the city, she kept looking left and right. In addition to people from the Batko area, there were also people from other ethnic groups and other regions along the way. This can be seen from their clothing and appearance. The Pusut Dynasty It was a huge country that was conquered by it, along with half of the previous Tutan area and the large and small countries in the south.
But what Marina paid attention to was not these, but she seemed to see some familiar shadows. Marina even saw existences that were very high on the list of blasphemers in the three major churches. Then, with this opportunity, she blended into the Ba Within the city of Bo.
"Are you all here?" Marina felt that some of the information she was not sure about before seemed to be confirmed. There is no airtight wall in the world, especially with such a big movement and such a big arrangement in the Pusut Dynasty. , some hidden methods are easy for people to see through and guess what they are going to do.
The next day, they saw King Sethis of the Pusut Dynasty, a legendary existence. All the envoys were watching His Majesty the King in the corner of the palace, and the palace was filled with a large number of temples. Looking down, the whole city has gathered into a sea of worshipers of the Sky Temple.
Hundreds of underworld priests occupied the entire palace, guarding Setisis, as if they were surrounded by stars and the moon. A large number of extraordinary people knelt and sat in circles around the king, even if this king The old man who looked unattractive looked silent, and the power he exuded at this moment also made the people who came here with ulterior motives tremble!
The king's majestic gaze swept over everyone who came here, and everyone lowered their heads, even if they had already seen that there were alchemists, wizards, and people of extraordinary blood coming here to participate. The purpose of this grand ceremony is not friendly, but at this moment, there is nothing serious about it.
"Because this is Barbour City!"
"This is the royal capital of the Pusut Dynasty!"
"This is a place shrouded in the light of the gods!"
Jonathan suddenly remembered the words of the priest who received them during their process. Looking at the layers of underworld priests gathering, he couldn't help but feel numb in his heart. Although he knew that on top of this grand ceremony, they, as foreign envoys, , it is impossible for the Pusut Dynasty to do anything, but looking at this powerful force is also scary.
Jonathan couldn't help but look at Ms. Marina next to him, and he was able to find some comfort and peace of mind. At this moment, Marina was staring closely at Thetis, with a solemn expression.
"The peak of the fourth level is indeed an antique-level existence. The mental power scale is close to one thousand!"
As the bells rang, huge bells rang out from the top of the palace, and the echoing bells rang throughout the city. Hymns to the gods sounded in the palace, and music and drums played at the same time.
The believers outside the city, who were like mountains and seas, all looked towards the palace. The sound of prayer instantly filled the entire sky. A powerful force of faith seemed to gather and envelope the entire city of Barbour, infecting everyone!
Setisis sat cross-legged under the statue of the god, and the two main gods were one and the same, paying attention to Setisis below.
"Thetis!"
"Thetis!"
One by one, the underworld priests shouted Sethis's name in unison, exciting music sounded, and everyone shouted at the top of their lungs. They were at the feet of Sethis, singing hymns about Sethis.
After the first sound came out, the whole city shouted Sethis's name in unison, forming a sound like a mountain roaring and a tsunami. All the believers fell into extreme fanaticism, and hundreds of thousands of them shouted one name at the same time. The emotion seems to give this name a different power.
"Ding dong!"
For a moment, Jonathan felt that the entire air of Barber City was frozen, as if strong forces were gathering together with these shouts, injecting this name, giving it a different name.
Countless patterns gathered in the palace, and you can see that the entire palace is a huge pattern of the Death Priest, but it is somewhat different from the cornerstone of the Death Priest on the World Tree model. A large amount of power of faith penetrates it, and then condenses into Each special symbol is the name of Setisis, the sacred title of Setisis.
In an instant, I saw that Setisis's soul seemed to be ignited. The black symbols, with special power of faith, poured into Setisis's soul, igniting his soul towards a special gesture. Start converting.
The black power continued to flow with the light and shadow, flowing out of Sethis's body and filling the entire palace, while all the underworld priests continued to chant Sethis's name, and even sang about Sethis. Hymn to Tisis.
At this moment, Setisis was at the highest point of the palace, with black power of death constantly overflowing from his body, while countless believers were singing his name below. From top to bottom, hundreds of thousands of people were crawling at his feet. Down, like a god.
All the guests participating in this holy ceremony were looking up at Sethis under the statue of the god. They could see that his power continued to spread, as if a blazing flame was burning inside his soul, and black divine power continued to flow from his body. It spreads out and continues to expand under the power of this faith.
Jonathan was trembling all over at this moment and looked at Sethis with wide eyes: "Condensate the name of God, ignite the fire of God, and transform the body of God!"
"Sure enough, is that really the case?"
"Condensing the priesthood, he... is he going to become a god?"
Everyone who had received the news was now looking at Sethisis in shock as his power continued to expand and change. Flames quickly enveloped his body, and a huge black light emerged from his body.
Under the chants of the entire city, the power of faith continued to gather towards the center. The faith of hundreds of thousands of people condensed into Setisis. Setisis' soul quickly completed the condensation of the god's name, and then successfully ignited Divine fire, divine fire densely covered the entire body, and the posture of Setisis's soul was constantly changing, transforming towards the posture of the god's body.
"The body of a god!"
At this moment, Marina also stood up, watching in shock the changes that had taken place in Sethisis. This was the first time that humans had witnessed someone moving towards the gods, touching the realm of the eternal gods with a mortal body.
"With a mortal body, touch the eternal stars!"
I don't know why, Jonathan thought of these words again, his eyes flickered as he watched the black light and shadow power continuously flowing out of Sethis's body, dyeing the entire huge palace into the black earth of the underworld. Fear, longing, and expectation!
In addition, a large number of people hidden in Barbour City, spying on this Day of the Dead celebration, also looked at the palace in shock. The huge palace was completely shrouded in a black light shield. , couldn't see clearly what was going on inside, but everyone could feel that a strong wave was brewing in it, as if it was about to explode in an instant.
The black light and shadow emerged from Sethis's body and converged into a huge divine light and shadow holding the Book of the Dead. It broke free from Sethis's body. As the power of prayer and faith continued to gather, It quickly expanded, stood up, and poured out of the palace bit by bit, erected in the center of the entire Babel City.
I only saw a light and shadow of a black-robed god hundreds of meters high, occupying the center of the entire city, like a giant overlooking the entire city. The huge black robe danced like clouds and floated over the city, like the arrival of the true god. Wherever they looked, the believers were shouting wildly, while their hearts were trembling with disbelief!
“I’ve really taken this step!”
But more people who were observing in secret fell into ecstasy. The success of Setisis told them that this step was feasible and the success could be replicated.
The festival of the Day of the Dead lasted for a whole month before it ended. The news that Setisis successfully lit the divine fire and condensed the body of the god had spread all over the world before the ceremony ended. 8)
