Chapter 181: The Other Shore

In the thin night, the soldiers of the Holy Rune Army silently crossed the bridge in a line, heading to the five wooden stakes that had just been laid out, looking for the one they belonged to.

The moment to realize the fate has come, no one has a word of complaint, Mu Xingqiu stood under the patriarch tower, he didn't need to feel it, he could sense the tension in the air that could not be dissolved, the patience of the soldiers had reached the limit, and many people were even looking forward to the arrival of this moment.

Emperor Ci came riding a unicorn, without armor, wearing an old purple brocade robe, with a rigid expression, like perseverance, but also like a dazed.

Groups of flag-holding guards dispersed, surrounding the Patriarch Tower, and all kinds of tattered flags fluttered in the wind.

Emperor Ci came to Mu Xingqiu alone without jumping off his mount, and today, more than ever, he needed to maintain his lofty position.

"You made the right choice, and the two of them died as they deserved. He said that since Mu Xingqiu killed King Huaibi and a wounded officer by the bonfire three days ago, Emperor Ci appeared for the first time, and the others were as if the whole thing did not exist at all, "The Holy Fu Dynasty will remember your merits, and your name will be engraved on the monument of the meritorious heroes to be honored by all generations." ”

"That's good. Mu Xingqiu didn't want to argue, "What does Your Majesty want to do with this formation?" Zuo Liuying and Kun Zhen are not here, and the Broken Flow City at this moment is just an empty city. ”

Emperor Ci turned his head and glanced at it, "What are you doing?" I am adhering to the will of heaven in the underworld, summoning a more powerful ruler, that is, a true god, to destroy the false god Kun Chao. Kun Chao is a false god because he rejects sentient beings, and the true God needs and appreciates the offerings of sentient beings. ”

"True God?"

"There is truth in the world, but there may not be falsehood, once there is falsehood, there must be truth, and falsehood is produced after truth, and it is its disguiser. Kun Chao is a false god, which proves that there is a true god. The true God watches everything and can easily make the impossible possible. ”

This is obviously a statement that the Emperor often preached, from the choice of words, tone, expression, to the movement of his fingers, he is extremely skillful, with an unquestionable strong confidence, and a hint of holy light, as if possessed by the true God.

Mu Xingqiu nodded, still not wanting to argue, this was not what he was good at, facing a fanatical believer. No explanation can be understood.

"The Divine Summoning Array doesn't necessarily require the Dao Treasure Element. Emperor Ci looked up at the top of the Patriarch Tower, the "brilliance" of the true god disappeared from him, and his tone became insincere, "But it is better to have it, the Patriarch Pagoda can make our call clearer, and it can also provide a smoother passage for the true god to descend." This is all your credit, Mu Xingqiu, you happen to appear here, and you happen to have the Ancestor Tower. This can only be the arrangement of the true God. But your choices are still important, and you save the world. ”

"I can't afford such a feat, especially in front of the Emperor. ”

Emperor Ci smiled, and the last trace of doubt disappeared. Even General Mu was convinced, and the white-haired emperor felt more satisfied than ever, and a warm current rose from his abdomen and ran straight to the top of his head. He believed that this was the revelation that the true God had given him.

"There is no better time than today, Kun Chao looks down on mortals, this is his biggest mistake. He would know what it was like to fall before dawn!" Emperor Cihuang raised his arms, and the guards around him raised their flags, and the soldiers who crossed the bridge marched faster.

"Why did you choose Broken Flow City?" asked Mu Xingqiu.

Emperor Ci was slightly unhappy, and although General Mu did not stop the Divine Summoning Array, he was too calm and too plain to blend into the atmosphere of Divine Summoning.

"Because of the ice here. Emperor Ci also cooled down, "Broken Flow City has been frozen for two years, and it will not melt in summer, it must be supported by powerful spells, and the caster can only be Kun Zhu, and use the method of pseudo-gods to summon the true god to come, and the effect is better." ”

In the mind of the Emperor, the Divine Calling Array was an accusation and a lawsuit, and he wanted to present tangible evidence to move the mercy of the true God and arouse the indignation of the true God.

In Mu Xingqiu's eyes, the ice in Broken Flow City is not a great spell, it is likely to be the magic relics left by Zuo Liuying when he learned the state of ignorance from the earth monkey, and there is no need for Kun Zhen to take action himself, and there is only Kun Zhen's own spell in the Dao Treasure such as the Ancestor Tower.

Mu Xingqiu still had no intention of arguing, looked at Emperor Ci for a moment, and asked, "What do you need me to do?"

"I have to ask General Mu to stay away from the Ancestor Tower, you haven't practiced the Divine Summoning Array, and it will interfere in the formation. ”

"Well, the true god is just a pure call. Mu Xingqiu glanced back at Jiehe, "I'll go to the other bank, is it far enough?"

"Enough. ”

"Which general will give me a ride, and tell me the details of the Divine Array so that I don't make a mistake in my judgment. ”

Emperor Ci agreed reluctantly, "Okay, let me see ......"

"That's it, General Fu Lin, we've met, he's one of the few people I remember, and I hope he'll remember me. ”

Emperor Ci's gaze swept half a circle before he confirmed who Fu Lin was on a confused face, "You are a survivor of the Huangjing Disaster, and more than a year ago, you went thousands of miles into the land of demons to join me, well, you are a loyal descendant of the Fu clan. Are you a sacrificer?"

Fu Lin once fought side by side with Mu Xingqiu, and also taught him a lot of the skills of the Longbin Society, and then said goodbye, and went alone to find the whereabouts of the Emperor Ci with high morale, and now he has no fighting spirit, holding a banner in his hand, and he is as nervous as other soldiers.

"Yes, Your Majesty, I am the Sacrificer, and I am in the Northern Formation. ”

"General Mu, change the escort, let me choose ...... for you"

"Not necessarily. Mu Xingqiu strode towards Fu Lin, "The true god doesn't count one less sacrificer, his gaze must have crossed over the sentient beings, and he has been staring at the pseudo-god Kun Chao. ”

Emperor Ci frowned slightly, vaguely felt that this was a mockery, and was about to sternly refute the disrespectful statement, Mu Xingqiu waved his hand and offered a paper talisman, after the green smoke, he and Fu Lin disappeared at the same time, leaving only a horse without an owner, the saddle was there, and after a while, the two appeared on the other side of the Jiehe River.

Emperor Ci was furious for a moment, but today was too important for him to make a fuss about a trivial matter, so he decided to endure it and immediately appointed another general to sacrifice in place of Fu Lin.

The matter was settled, and Emperor Ci looked at the Patriarch Tower again, stared for a moment, jumped off the unicorn, and walked towards the tower.

On a high ground on the opposite bank, Mu Xingqiu said to the panicked Fu Lin, "Do you still have a talisman chair?

Soldiers on the east bank are still crossing the bridge. It would take an hour or two just to get to the designated location.

Fu Lin panicked and wanted to run back to the West Bank, but he took two steps and stopped, turned around and said, "Why are you doing this? ”

"You were meant to die, and the Divine Summoning Array isn't as simple as spitting out two mouthfuls of blood, right?"

Fu Lin lowered his head and sighed, "It's the same death, but the result is different." ”

"You want to enter the afterlife of the Old Gods?"

"Everybody wants to. ”

"In that case, why do you want to summon the true god to defeat Kun Chao in this world?"

Fu Lin opened his mouth and stammered, "True God...... Prove your strength. Prove that he is stronger than the false god Kun Zhu. ”

"Is it true that the majority sacrifice and go to the afterlife, while the few who are less fortunate and stay in this world to witness the greatness of the true God?"

Fu Lin nodded hesitantly, almost the same words, when Mu Xingqiu said it, it seemed to have changed its taste, and it was completely devoid of the tragic generosity of the Emperor. It's like a ridiculous hoax.

"What about the others? I have seen a lot of surviving civilians in Jiangnan, hiding in ruined towns and cities, and some hiding in the mountains. Trying to survive and believe in the ancient gods, but he doesn't know anything about the world after death, does he still have a chance?"

Fu Lin became more and more dazed. His feet moved restlessly," said Emperor Ci...... Emperor Ci said...... You should ask him. ”

"No, I'm asking you. Mu Xingqiu became stern. "Because the general Fu Lin I know is strong-willed, and he is by no means a disciple of the crowd, if you don't fully believe in the words of Emperor Ci, you will not be willing to be a sacrificer. ”

Fu Lin's face was a little red, and his body was trembling slightly, "Is there still anything wrong with Emperor Ci's words? He won't harm us, we are the last army of the Holy Fu Dynasty, Emperor Ci has seen the true god, if he wasn't confident, he wouldn't ...... Won't ......"

"We will not let 90,000 people die, so there must be a world waiting for you after death. Mu Xingqiu said it for him.

Fu Lin nodded heavily, and the feeling still lingered: the same words always tasted a little bad in Mu Xingqiu's mouth.

"I've been to another world before. Mu Xingqiu said.

"Huh?!"

"I don't remember myself, but I must have escaped from the Demon Extraction Cave, which is a prison of Taoism and a world of its own. Before that, I had also been to Shibu Bang, which is also said to be a separate world. ”

Fu Lin didn't know anything about the Demon Extraction Cave, but he knew a little about the Stopping Realm, and the Longbin Society was once responsible for supplying supplies there on a regular basis, and he had read some relevant records, "The two places you mentioned are not completely cut off from the real world. ”

"That's right. ”

Fu Lin's face turned pale, "Are you saying that the world of the ancient gods may not be ......?"

"If there really is such an afterlife, the true gods can come, and the false gods can pass. ”

"Then it is even more necessary to summon the true god, and Kun Chao must be completely defeated in order to keep the world safe after death. Fu Lin finally found a reason to hold the Divine Summoning Array.

Mu Xingqiu smiled, "You better summon a talisman chair for me." ”

Fu Lin hurriedly took out a stack of paper talismans, picked out one, and turned the sacrificial talisman into a three-legged small round stool, and said embarrassedly: "I only have this." ”

"Good. Mu Xingqiu sat down and looked at the Patriarch Pagoda on the other bank, Emperor Ci had already walked in, I don't know what spell was used, and the top of the tower emitted a soft light.

"Can I go back?" Fu Lin thought about the sacrifice.

"Don't be so troublesome, you send me across the river, and I'll send you to the afterlife. ”

Fu Lin was stunned, and before he could understand the meaning of this sentence, his eyes went dark, and the consciousness in his mind quickly disappeared.

Fu Lin fell on the snow, Mu Xingqiu didn't even look at it, still looking at the Patriarch Tower, holding the sword washing pool in his right hand, and muttered, "What world can stop Kun Chao outside?"
