Chapter 31: The Rituals of Immortality, God’s Chosen

Li Yan’s skill level is fixed at the ninth level of Qi and Blood.

On the big bunk bed, all the apprentices had fallen into a deep sleep, but they all couldn’t help sweating because it was too hot in the apprentice dormitory.

It’s the coldest time of winter, but it’s as hot as the dog days of summer.

The apprentices beside Li Yan all moved aside subconsciously, leaving space for the boss around him.

Li Yan closed his eyes slightly, feeling the ninth level of Qi and Blood power. The blood in his body surged, and in his ears it sounded like a raging tide.

The blood is like mercury!
This Fiery Sun Fist indeed has some tricks. After practicing the whole set of Fiery Sun Fist in conjunction with the mental method, the highest limit that can be reached is the ninth level of Qi and Blood.

As a Qi and blood realm practice, it has reached its peak.

The Da Qi’s exercises have their own methods for the Qi and Blood Realm, the Tendon and Bone Realm, and so on.

If one wants to practice the art of cultivating the bones and muscles, one must cultivate the Qi and blood realm to the ninth level.

In the martial arts, Li Yan has reached the top temporarily. Niu Ma has practiced the Fiery Sun Fist. If he wants to practice the bone and muscle realm skills, he must at least practice to the ninth level of Qi and Blood.

If Li Yan wants to move up further, it is necessary for Niu Ma to reach the ninth level of Qi and Blood, and then enter the Jingu Realm exercises, or to open a new believer position and accept a Jingu Realm believer.

This complete set of Fiery Sun Fist is considered a secret that is not passed on. If one wants to obtain the skills to reach the Muscle and Bone Realm, one needs sufficient opportunity.

Xiao Niu, come on… Or find a chance to refine the medicinal ginseng and let Niu Ma eat it?

As Li Yan thought about it, he practiced the method of concealing his breath to hide the ninth level of Qi and Blood Realm, and once again restored the aura of an ordinary teenager with extremely poor roots.

After all, this mortal body is one with the divine body. Although it is unable to transmit divine power due to the constraints of the laws of heaven and earth, it is still very simple to restrain the aura.

At this moment, Li Yan’s ears moved and his brows frowned slightly.

He suddenly heard a very light sound of footsteps slowly passing outside the apprentice dormitory and heading into the charity cemetery.

This person’s skill is at least at the fifth level of Qi and Blood!

The direction he was heading to was the room where Niu Ma was!

Li Yan used the breath-concealing technique and walked out of the apprentice dormitory silently.

Suddenly, a loud shout rang out:
“Who are you? What do you want to do to my son? Stop!”

It’s Zhan Yupeng’s voice!
Then there was a fight of fists and kicks!
……

A dilapidated temple on the bank of Wei River, east of Weizi Town.

This was originally a fox fairy temple under the seat of the Lord of All Spirits. However, it was suddenly struck by lightning one day. Dozens of corpses were found under the fox fairy statue, and the temple was abandoned.

At this time in the dilapidated temple, nine incense sticks as thick as fingers were lit in various places in the Fox Fairy Hall.

Originally, there was a silk screen in the middle of the Fox Fairy Temple, and a flickering candle made the temple dim.

On the screen, there were embroidered fairies with wings on their backs, which looked like a fairyland, similar to what Li Yan saw in the secret room of the village head Zhou Boyan’s house.

A group of naked people were kneeling on the ground, which was covered with snow-white feathers. They were moaning and scratching their bodies.

Their nails left bloody marks on their bodies, making them look bloody, but their faces were filled with excitement. They muttered to themselves as if they had seen the most magnificent sight.

Village head Zhou Boyan was also among them.

Behind the screen, the strange and low sound of chanting was constantly heard.

Suddenly, a middle-aged man with a portly figure stood up abruptly, let out an excited roar, and inserted his fingers into his eye sockets, actually popping his eyeballs out.

Then he burst out with unspeakable strength, tearing his facial skin along his eye sockets, and using this as the center, he directly tore his skin apart!

The tear marks extended from his face to his lower body, but he had a happy and strange smile on his face, muttering:

“I feel it… I feel it… the aura of the True Lord Yuhua… The True Lord is still here… I will shed my mortal body and ascend to heaven… I will ascend to heaven!”

As he spoke, he suddenly tore off his skin completely, leaving only a bloody muscular torso. With a pair of bloody eyes and a blissful smile on his face, he slowly walked towards the screen. Just as he was about to approach the screen, the bloody body suddenly fell to the ground, completely dead.

Blood flowed.

The people who were self-harming around rushed over like crazy, greedily sucking the blood on the ground, muttering:
“Become an immortal and become an immortal…become an immortal and become an immortal…”

“How wonderful it is… How wonderful it is…”

After a long while, the chanting sound coming from behind the screen gradually stopped, and the corpse spontaneously combusted without fire, gradually turned into ashes, and disappeared.

The people who drank the blood all had rosy faces, looked excited and satisfied, and slowly put on their clothes.

Some even burped.

When fellow practitioners ascended to heaven, they drank each other’s blood and naturally were able to get some of the immortal energy.

Isn’t this what you’re looking forward to?
Village head Zhou Boyan stood behind the screen with his hands hanging down.

The candlelight cast a shadow of a sitting person on the screen. Although the face could not be seen clearly, he seemed to have endless majesty.

Zhou Boyan knew that it was the chief priest of Yuhua Society!

In the Yuhua Society, the highest-ranking one is the Saintess, below her are the Chief Priest and three Priests, and under the Priests are many “Yu Masters”, each of whom is in charge of a large number of believers.

The village head Zhou Boyan is the feather master of Weizi Town.

The Saint never participates in specific affairs, which are managed by the High Priest and three other Priests. It can be said that the Priest is second only to the emperor in the Yuhua Society!

“Master Xiang Dongyun has been called by the True Lord and has ascended to heaven. This is cause for celebration.” The voice of the chief priest came. It was hard to tell whether he was old or young, or male or female. It was extremely strange. “He can sense the True Lord’s true spirit. This is also our good fortune! In this way, when the day of March, the Saint Girl will ascend to heaven, and we can ascend to the fairyland with her! Ascending to heaven is wonderful!”

Everyone present immediately put their hands up to their hearts, with great joy on their faces, and shouted in unison:
“How wonderful it is to ascend to heaven!”

Yuhua Jiji asked again:

“Zhou Boyan, how is the preparation of firewood going?”

Zhou Boyan immediately stepped forward and saluted:
“I brought the two firewoods into the secret room today and performed the ritual of ascension. I have transferred the ascension spirit into the bodies of the two firewoods and they can be used for sacrifice at any time.”

After a pause, he continued with a smile:

“It’s funny to say that one of the firewood immediately entered the realm of immortality, scratching his body with bloody marks, wishing he could get rid of his body. On the contrary, the other firewood didn’t react at all from beginning to end, and let the immortal energy of immortality enter his body. I almost thought that this firewood had no chance to meet the True Lord…”

However, he did not expect that before he could finish his sentence, the screen suddenly shattered as if torn by a strong wind.

Zhou Boyan was instantly pulled over by a great force and fell to his knees in front of a figure.

The figure was wearing a Taoist robe, a crown made of blood-red feathers and a mask on his head that covered his hair and the upper half of his face. It was the Yuhua Jijiu.

Then I heard the Yuhua priest anxiously say:
“What did you say? There was no reaction during the ritual, and the immortal energy entered the body!?”

Zhou Boyan was shocked and said in a trembling voice:

“Yes… that’s right… but what did I do wrong?”

The Yuhua Priest then asked:

“Are you sure that the ritual has been fully started and the chanting has not stopped?”

Zhou Boyan said quickly:

“I am sure! The rituals in the secret room were arranged by you personally, so there is no way they could be wrong.”

Then the Yuhua Priest grinned, revealing a mouthful of sharp teeth, and said grimly:
“Under the majesty of the True Lord, even the strongest person would react and go crazy! This person didn’t react at all. There is only one explanation…”

“He is the chosen one of God, beloved by all the gods! Today is a double blessing… Bring him to me immediately!”
