Chapter 528 Void Blood Training Ritual
Chapter 528 Void Blood Training Ritual
Apostle Gao Da's sneer of contempt was not concealed at all, and the other fellow tribesmen gathered around him chuckled softly.
Mocking and disgusted glances fell on the old apostles in the valley.
Several old apostles also heard it, with embarrassment on their faces and lowered their heads.
The elderly apostle who had called Lu Yun to be the new emperor wiped away his tears and said in shame, "I have made a fool of myself for the emperor."
"Your Majesty, please come with us into the building and take a seat. I will explain everything to you one by one."
Lu Yun nodded slightly, asked Haotian to guard the door, and entered the building.
Several older apostles rushed over after hearing the news. They were also excited, but not to the point of crying.
The one with the most emotions was the apostle who first called Lu Yun the emperor.
Lu Yun noticed that these elderly apostles in front of him still retained some human features, while those outside with mocking expressions were completely void creatures, without any human features at all.
The difference between the two is quite obvious, perhaps this is the cause of the disagreement? Or perhaps it is the result.
Lu Yun sat in the main seat, and the other ten or so people were scattered around the room, some standing, some sitting, all looking at Lu Yun expectantly.
"My name is Yao Yu, and I am the 76th generation inheritor of the ancestral temple."
"I, the old minister, am guilty of betraying the Ancestral Emperor's trust and failing to properly manage the descendants of the Ancestral Temple. This has caused the Ancestral Temple to fall apart and lose its spirit."
Yao and Yu knelt on the ground for a long time, banging their heads on the ground, extremely sad.
Several people in the room also looked gloomy.
Afterwards, Yao and Yu began to narrate the incident.
It turned out that Zuting had mobilized the entire clan to enter the void world to prepare to block the void, but the void world was so vast that it was difficult to succeed relying on Zuting alone.
So two routes were proposed.
One is suppression by force, and the second is division.
The void world at that time was extremely ignorant, and void creatures were no different from wild beasts. Only those void lords with great power had wisdom.
But even that is savage wisdom.
Relying on its own foundation, the ancestral court began to try to support and educate some weak void races.
This move was very successful, and hundreds of ethnic groups grew into independent entities.
The influence of the ancestral temple is growing.
But then two things happened.
First, they underestimated the terrible ambition and greed of the original Void species.
After receiving support from the Ancestral Court and growing up thoroughly, these races gradually became unwilling to submit to the Ancestral Court. Driven by their ambitions, they continued to annex and strengthen themselves.
The ancestral temple had thought about curbing this situation, but a second incident happened during this period.
Some people within the ancestral temple are unwilling to do all this just to prepare wedding dresses for the universe.
They are intoxicated by the power brought by the Void Bloodline.
So, they abandoned their ancestral bloodline, gave up their human identity, and completely embraced the void.
This is a corruption of subjective consciousness that is even worse than the backlash of the Void Bloodline, and there is no cure.
Since then, the power within the ancestral temple has split into two factions.
One is the Redemptionists who believe that they are human beings and that they are here only for a great mission.
The other is the evolutionary faction that has forgotten the glory of the ancestral temple and chosen to embrace the void.
As time passed, more and more newborns were born. They had never experienced glory and naturally could not empathize with others, so they all joined the evolutionary faction.
Today, in this huge ancestral temple, there are only a dozen or so figures in the house who still remember the glory of the ancestral temple and carry out the mission of the ancestral temple.
...This situation is different from what the old man in the black tower said... Lu Yun let out a sigh of relief.
However, thousands of years have passed, and whatever happened is normal, so Lu Yun was not too surprised.
If everything goes well, then he will really be amazed at the terrifying cohesion and sense of mission of the ancestral temple.
Yao Yu finished speaking with tears in his eyes, sighed deeply, and stood up again, "Old Nine, the new emperor has arrived, it's time to go and get that thing."
The elderly figure who had been standing silently on the side raised his head and glanced at Lu Yun with a hesitant look.
Yao Yu looked at him puzzledly: "What are you standing there for?"
"Big brother."
Yao Ding looked embarrassed, not daring to meet his elder brother's gaze. He whispered, "That thing was taken away by Wuji."
"Wuji..." Yao Yu was stunned for a moment, then angrily asked, "When did this happen?"
When they heard this name, everyone's faces suddenly turned gloomy.
"Just before I came."
Yao Ding responded in a low voice. He was not the one who followed Yao Yu out of the building to greet them, but he came after receiving the news.
"He, he... I can't stop him."
"You! You're confused!!"
Yao Yu closed his eyes in pain, and when he opened them again, they were bloodshot: "Why didn't you tell me about this earlier?!"
"Because it's no longer necessary."
An indifferent voice suddenly sounded outside the building.
It was the apostle Gao who had led the way before.
The five-meter-tall figure of the other party flashed through Lu Yun’s mind.
The other party did not enter the building, but stood outside and talked from a distance.
He seemed disdainful of entering the building.
"Mo Wuji!"
Yao Yu gritted his teeth and recited the name, then bowed and whispered, "Your Majesty, please wait a moment. I will go and get the treasure!"
Then he strode out of the small building.
Lu Yun asked doubtfully, "Are there any treasures left in the ancestral temple?"
An old man explained, "The Ancestor Emperor knew that the new emperor would encounter many hardships during his growth, so he prepared a treasure that would greatly benefit the new emperor's growth and hid it in the inner treasury, waiting to be given to the new emperor upon his arrival."
"But now, the things have been snatched away by Mo Wuji." The old man glared at Yao Ding while speaking, and Yao Ding looked away.
"Is there such a thing?"
Lu Yun asked curiously.
"Yes."
The old man explained seriously: "If the new emperor wants to grow in the shortest possible time, he needs to continuously absorb the power of other void bloodlines, and that treasure can help refine the bloodlines of void creatures and use them for his own benefit.
This is equipment that the Ancestral Court has spent nearly a hundred years researching tens of thousands of Void Bloodlines to develop.”
Lu Yun couldn't help but be surprised. Just as he was about to ask for details, he heard a loud shout from outside.
"Mo Wuji, quickly hand over the Void Blood Refining Instrument! It's a precious artifact left by the ancestral court to the new emperor. It's not your turn to get your hands on it, a traitor who has betrayed the glory of the ancestral court!"
Mo Wuji folded his arms across his chest, suspended in the air, looking down at the old man below with a face full of indifference and contempt: "You old thing who has no ambition to make progress."
"I consider you to be of the same blood as mine, and I hope that one day you will see the situation clearly, so I will kindly allow you to survive in this territory."
"I didn't expect that a dog will always eat shit. As soon as this bastard new emperor came, you bowed down to him. You, an old man, have completely disgraced my apostolic clan!"
Mo Wuji stretched out his hand and pointed, and a tremendous flame roared out, shaking the void.
