Volume 5: The Mystery of Shamo Chapter 68: Smoke of War Fills the Sky
Ping Lili never knew that she was also a superstitious person.
Today is a big day, the day when she enters the Shamo Temple for the second time as Yao Ji.
Originally, there was a sudden downpour last night, which made Pinglili feel a little gloomy for no reason. However, in the early morning, the rain stopped, and as the sun rose, the gloom in her heart instantly dissipated.
The sky is clear and it’s a sunny day!
Almost every qualified Shamo wizard was already waiting at the Shamo Temple, filling the once empty hall to a point of near-crowd. After five hundred years of waiting, the Shamo people finally welcomed their twentieth-generation Chief Wizard. Although it appeared to be the same person as the previous generation, this made him even more mysterious and legendary.
Everyone knows that this new chief wizard is said to be the junior sister of the great elder Wusu, who has been the actual head of Shamo for five hundred years, and is also the reincarnation of the previous chief wizard.
The most important thing is that she is the successor chosen by the God of Shamo, Jianyi, after five hundred years. During these five hundred years, the position of the Chief Wizard of Shamo has been vacant for her. All this is legendary enough.
So no one had any objection. Almost everyone present had seen the sickle-shaped mark on the forehead of the new chief wizard of the Shamo tribe under the Yonghui City that day. It was a unique mark of the inheritor of the Shamo god Jianyi.
When the sun rose, bells and drums rang out, and the solemn and graceful sound announced that the Shamo Temple had finally welcomed its new owner after five hundred years.
A woman in red slowly walked into the temple under the watchful eyes of the crowd. The Shamo wizards on both sides knelt down and bowed to her. The uniform cheers came like a tidal wave, echoing in this majestic Shamo temple and reaching the top of the clouds.
The woman who was about to succeed Shamo as the 20th chief wizard had a stern look and graceful manners. She was dressed in red like a flame, with a beautiful figure. Between her wide sleeves, golden flowers embroidered with dark patterns slowly bloomed. With every move, she was like a lotus in full bloom in the world, letting all her beauty fade away in an instant.
In fact, everyone present knew that it was not a golden lotus, but a dangerous and beautiful poppy flower.
Ping Lili walked slowly across the hall where people were kneeling on the ground, and went straight to the front of the temple. At the front of the temple, a man in purple clothes stood. The man in purple clothes had white hair like snow and a weathered face. He looked at her in a daze, his hands hanging at his sides, trembling slightly. She smiled and walked towards him step by step, her steps firm and steady, but the aura of looking down on everyone seemed natural.
Their eyes met for a moment, and the smile in her golden-brown eyes became even brighter, but her gaze seemed to pass past him and look into something deeper.
Wu Su's thick brows furrowed, his expression slightly solemn, and he slowly raised his hand. Suddenly, an octagonal exquisite purple jade tower appeared out of thin air in his hand. The crystal clear seven-story tower was flashing with purple divine light like starlight. Countless runes and spells of various shapes kept appearing and disappearing on the exquisite purple jade tower. The spiritual energy in the tower kept flowing, and everyone present couldn't help but hold their breath.
The smile in Pinglili's eyes became even more intense. When she was only one step away from him, Wusu suddenly snapped his fingers at the pagoda in his hand, and a ball of golden light the size of a goose egg flew out from the top of the pagoda, spreading in the air and gradually becoming a square of ten feet, blooming with billions of rays of light, and surrounded by clouds. Golden beads and golden lotuses hung from each corner, one string after another, each thirty feet six feet and five inches long.
"This is the 'Shamo Xuantian List,' passed down through generations of our Shamo people. Made of Xuantian brocade, it was tempered within the three fires of heaven, earth, and man for ninety-nine days and eighty-one nights. During its forging, this 'Shamo Xuantian List' was forged with the power of the Shamo God, Jianyi, sealing the vast spiritual energy between heaven and earth. It is a sacred object passed down through generations of Shamo clan chief wizards. Now, all you need to do is swear an oath with your blood, vowing to dedicate your body and soul to the Shamo God and the entire Shamo clan. This list will sense your sincerity and officially declare you the 20th Chief Wizard of the Shamo clan."
Ying Lili sneered inwardly. She had dedicated her body and soul to the God of Shamo and the entire Shamo clan. Haha, what a joke! Who was he, Jianyi? Just a lonely soul sealed in his own sea of consciousness. He still wanted her body and soul? It was wishful thinking. It was impossible.
However, her expression remained calm as always, because she was determined to obtain the Shamo Xuantian Ranking. The main reason she wanted to inherit the position of Chief Wizard of the Shamo Clan was actually because of this ranking.
Because Yao Ji once told her that in order to obtain the most mysterious power of the Sha Mo clan, she must swear a blood oath with the "Sha Mo Xuan Tian List". The power of the curse that Yao Ji used to curse the Na Yu clan came from this. By analogy, Yao Ji concluded that if Gong Lili wanted to break the curse, she must also obtain that kind of power.
This list has been sealed somewhere in the Shamo Temple by the Great Elder of the Shamo Clan. It will only be taken out during the inheritance ceremony of the Chief Wizard. Only in this Shamo Temple will the 'Shamo Xuantian List' release its most powerful force. Therefore, if she wants to obtain that supreme power, there is only this way and today.
She calmly placed a finger between her lips and suddenly bit it. A drop of bright red blood dripped down, but it did not fall to the ground. Instead, it flew towards the 'Sha Mo Xuan Tian List' in mid-air. At this moment, she heard an angry shout: "Wait!" Then, a silver beam of light broke through the air and knocked the drop of bright red blood directly to the ground.
Ping Lili's heart trembled slightly, and her eyes met Wu Su's for an instant. A hint of mockery flashed in her eyes, while Wu Su's eyes flashed with more hesitation and confusion. Are they here after all?
It seems that they really don't want her to inherit the position of the chief wizard of the Shamo tribe from the bottom of their hearts. The seal that was originally going to take several days to break was forcibly broken today.
A certain senior uncle was indeed scared.
However, all of this was within Ying Lili's calculations. Otherwise, she wouldn't have gone to that mysterious realm in person yesterday to talk about all sorts of nonsense.
But who was coming now? Who had just attacked? Was it the person hiding behind all this time? This was what Ying Lili was most concerned about at this moment.
At this moment, several green streamers about a foot long shot out from the front of the temple, nimbly avoiding Wu Su's body, and like a spirit snake, they coiled towards the face of Ying Lili, who was facing Wu Su only a few feet away. Ying Lili was prepared, and with a wave of her finger, countless golden ripples appeared and disappeared around her. With the hook and flick of her fingertips, the golden ripples quickly gathered into a circle of thick golden light column, blocking the green streamers outside the golden light column!
go!
The golden beam of light quickly spread out, and in the blink of an eye it covered everything within sight. Gradually, the entire Shamo Temple was shrouded in this golden light curtain!
As for Wu Su, since the drop of blood fell to the ground, he had already leaned down, raised his palms, roared angrily, and slammed the ground hard. Suddenly, the Sha Mo Temple began to shake, and a huge golden seal of time and space appeared on the ground!
This is the Nine Revolutions of Heaven and Earth Formation passed down from generation to generation by the Shamo Clan. It can instantly transfer people to other places. However, such a huge Nine Revolutions of Heaven and Earth Formation has never been seen before!
Moreover, such a huge Nine Revolutions Universe Formation could definitely not be set up on the spur of the moment. However, looking at Wu Su's expression, he seemed calm, as if everything was within his expectations!
The Shamo wizards who originally crowded the Shamo Temple were carried away by the Seal of Time and Space like wisps of smoke before they could react to what was happening!
Immediately afterwards, there was a loud "clang" and the huge stone door of the temple closed by itself!
Everything happened in that instant. When Wu Su used the Nine Revolutions of the Universe to send all the Shamo wizards who had gathered in the Shamo Temple out of the temple, Ying Lili also happened to take the "Shamo Xuantian List" into his pocket.
Then, almost at the same time, several golden rays shot out from their hands, their target naturally being the source of the green streamer. With a loud bang, two pillars in front of the temple suddenly cracked. Fortunately, there were still many pillars in the temple...
However, he missed, as the person who had just attacked had obviously moved away.
In the huge Shamo Temple, the only ones left were Ying Lili, who was standing proudly in red, and Wu Su, who had a stern look on his face. The two of them looked at each other quickly again, and stood back to back in the middle of the hall, their sharp eyes sweeping across every corner of the hall, as if looking for something.
"Uncle-master, now that you are here, why are you still hiding? Just come out openly. It's not like you to play the coward." Gong Lili's voice suddenly rang out in the empty temple, and there was even a faint echo.
"Hmph, you little bitch!" The voice was icy cold and full of murderous intent.
Suddenly, a figure appeared from the void. He wore a Seven-Light Ruyi Crown and a robe of white cranes and blue clouds. His face was purple, and he had large ears and a square face, looking quite majestic. His drooping eyelids lifted slightly, and in an instant, two beams of light shot out, like sharp swords slicing through the air, unstoppable!
"Uncle Qingsong, why are you here!" A half-smile slowly appeared on Pinglili's lips.
