The altar has been rearranged, and special white candles have been inserted into the candlesticks. The lit candle is about a knuckle long, and it is not an ordinary yellow flame with a blue heart, but a special azure flame. At least for someone who is barren.
With my knowledge of chemistry, I don’t know what ingredients should be added to the candle to produce a fire of this color.
The incense that is only lit during the annual Holy Day Ceremony is also wafting out of the light smoke. Not only is the aroma fragrant, but it can also make people feel trance-like and fall into a mysterious thought.
It sounds very similar to the drug-taking state described before time travel, but in fact this is not a drug or a psychedelic drug. It is a special incense that is often used in magicians' meditation rituals to help communicate with those very special beings, or
Connect the spirit to a higher level world. At least this thing is not addictive.
The priests put on sacrificial robes. The thick and solid wool felt was embroidered with exquisite sacred patterns, densely packed, forming a secret text that mortals could not understand. This was not only beautiful, but also contained the blessing of the gods.
If used as armor during an adventure, it is a powerful protective robe comparable to armor. Even so, the priests are reluctant to wear it as daily wear. Only at important moments, they are willing to wear the ironed and starched holy robe.
The children also wore a white robe and took on the responsibility of the choir. Under the command of the eldest child Lucretia, they sang carols softly. Although their voices were immature, they were obviously well-trained in coordination.
, at least everyone is singing in the same key, not out of tune or out of tune.
In such a cautious and solemn ceremony, Lin once again saw the belief pursued by the gods in the Lost Land and which was also one of the eight powers.
The source of power comes from the energy tide caused by the dimensional gap between other worlds and the Mysterious World that the World Tree absorbs, and then spits it out. Just like ordinary plants absorb carbon dioxide and then emit oxygen. However, among the eight powers
The belief in One is the only thing Lin has discovered so far that has a second source of power.
That is, when mortals establish a connection with the gods, this power will be sublimated from the sound of prayer, or condensed from the soul. According to various religious scriptures, this power will float to the gods.
country, turning into bricks, tiles, sand and stones in that country; or entering the gods and becoming the nourishment that nourishes their godhood. The actual situation is unknown for the time being.
So how does this faith condense from the souls of mortals? Lin was once very curious, but he did not have a suitable experimental subject, so he never delved into it. However, the whereabouts of the power of faith in front of him did allow Lin to get a glimpse of the goddess of gold coins.
Kingdom of God, and calculate its coordinates that can be used for flash spells.
No matter what, less than half of the goal of this trip has been achieved and he has become invincible. Lin smiled slightly and thought in his heart. Then the next step is to see whether His Majesty in the sky is willing to cooperate.
.
The red magic stone as an offering has always been placed in the center of the altar. As the power of faith in the environment became stronger, Lin became slightly uncomfortable as a magician.
From past research, we learned that the existence of power has its own balanced proportion. Once it is out of balance, the environment will automatically adjust and restore the balance. But if the imbalance is man-made, it cannot be easily restored.
It's like the air that people breathe is a mixture of several gases in proportion. In an environment of pure oxygen, pure carbon dioxide, or some kind of pure gas, people can't breathe normally. This is the situation Lin is facing now. The eight powers. , when faith is dominant, no magician can feel comfortable.
But Lin Ke did not stop the ceremony. Instead, he allowed the power of faith to continue to grow, and condensed a ball of light that ordinary people could not see in front of the statue of His Majesty Ke Yin.
When the ball of light condensed to the point of being solid, a thread-like beam of light swayed, extending from the ball of light towards the magic stone. It was as if His Majesty in the sky was carefully testing the magic stone, cautiously. contact with it.
When the connection is established, there are dots of starlight, which are drawn from the magic stone to the ball of light in front of the statue along the twisted connection path. At first, it is just like a trickle, but after a breath, the entire The environment of the temple seemed like a great terror had descended, and everyone felt discomfort and pressure, as if it was going to crush everyone present in one breath.
After all, the damage was not caused and disappeared in an instant. In other words, it was simply an illusion. At least someone's self-protection system was not triggered. But it may also be another situation, that is, the stress just now belonged to a new kind of A type of attack that someone has not yet recorded, and therefore does not trigger self-protection.
No matter which one it was, everyone had a strange sense of peeping and another indescribable feeling before the discomfort occurred. It was Lin's first experience of that feeling, but a certain special curve pattern in the environmental variables, But this is not the first time I have encountered it. In the old days of the Great Sage's Tower, the gate of the abyss was about to open, and when demons crossed the realm and came to the Lost Land, similar special changes would occur.
In other words, is there some kind of existence planning to come to Lost Land?
…
!
Could it be possible? Lin wondered in his heart.
Looking back at the expressions of the old priests before and now, they were originally pious and somewhat heavy. Later, their frowned brows gradually widened, revealing expressions of joy. But now, the joy has turned into panic. It can be said that With a dumbfounded expression, he looked at the statue of Goddess Ke Yin in a state of disbelief. Lin had an intuition that it must be the situation he had guessed.
At any rate, let's communicate with His Majesty first through the mouths of the few old men present. We went back and forth a few times, and after we made up our mind or gained trust, we met for discussion. By the way, we brought along the twenty-five cooperation partners who would definitely come to the venue. My friend, you are so impatient now that you have to skip the foreplay and go straight to the topic. How impatient it is.
Suddenly, a strong sense of direct vision made Lin know that his guess had come true. It should be invisible to mortals, but the ball of light condensed in front of the goddess statue turned into an eye.
The big eye suspended in mid-air blinked several times, looking left and right, as if it didn't see the desired target. In the end, it could only make do and focus on the eldest old priest. On the body.
A warm beam of light enveloped the priest who was kneeling in prayer. The old man, bathed in divine grace, appeared to be rejuvenated and transformed. But as if he was maladaptive, the old priest showed a ferocious look of pain. That beam of light Then it dissipated, and the old priest's appearance returned to its original state.
This is because he wants to descend from the gods, but his body is not strong enough to withstand the torment of the big boss in the sky, so he has backed down? Lin guessed in his heart.
But one failure would not dissuade the goddess from her intention. She changed her approach and no longer looked for a saint who could withstand her power. Such people are rare even in large churches and need to be specially cultivated.
The gold coin goddess Ke Yin chose a more direct method and came in her true form.
The eye that turned into a ball of light turned back into a ball of light. This time it changed again, instead of condensing inwards, it expanded its range outwards and shrank back. Although Lin did not move his position
, but it is clearly felt that the expanding light ball is not really concave toward the rear. Instead, the inside of the light ball extends toward an unknown high-dimensional world, just like a channel.
Could it be that he is coming in his true form?
Lin didn't know that the smile on his face had become a little stiff. But fortunately, he didn't have a plan to deal with such changes. After calming down, he quickly revised the follow-up plan in his mind. In fact, there were only some details. However, the specific
To change, we need to see His Majesty's true intentions before we can respond accordingly.
But the wait took longer than he expected. At least the passage leading to the Kingdom of the Goddess of Gold Coins has always been open and has not been closed.
Any phenomenon that goes against the laws of nature must be paid for, and the passage in front of him is no exception. Lin reasonably guessed that the maintainer should be the goddess, and the price is high. As a god with weak divine power, such a squandering
capital?
Lin was a little unsure for a moment. The purpose of this passage was to invite him, so it was opened like this. However, he stood there ungratefully, wasting each other's time and the other's divine power. It was still the real one.
Ready to come?
Just when he was thinking about his next move, a loud sound came from the passage. Lin didn't know if other people could hear it, but he could guarantee that not many people could understand it. Maybe a few old priests could. When they
When they can communicate with the gods they believe in, they will understand the special language used by their gods.
Although the language used by each god is different, from Lin's current perspective, after mastering the original language of mantra, the high-frequency language of dragon language, and the idea inheritance ability used by World Tree, he has to decipher
Divine language is not a particularly difficult thing. Lin even feels that he has come into contact with the legendary knowledge of the 'original language' of all languages.
Just understanding those voices seemed to make me even more confused.
:Apo, what are you doing here?
:You can't just rush in. It's my duty to prevent you from making a big mistake.
: I don’t care, I just want to go down. If you insist on stopping me, I will sue your sister.
: You don’t have to discuss it with anyone. Either consciousness comes, or you are granted human agency, or you cut yourself off. If you want to go down, there is no other way.
:No time. Oh, damn it, you are such a dead kid who always stands in front of others. I was so blind before, why should I help you? I regret it very much now, I have to sue your sister.
:Don’t bite! You’re not a dog. Okay, if you want to go down, I’ll help you. Just wait until I add a seal to you, and don’t cause damage to the main plane. Anyway, you’re not going down to cause trouble, right?
, no.
:Hurry up. I won’t care about you if you take your time.
...It seemed like I heard some very unusual conversation.
This conversation was very fast, probably more than the blink of an eye. In the next moment, a fat girl burst out of the channel formed by the light ball. She was short in stature, wearing only a simple burqa, and a golden hemp rope tied around her waist. .The honey-colored short hair seemed to be alive, fluctuating with the fat girl’s step.
She pinched the magic stone on the altar with her little hands, rushed to a certain magician, and asked anxiously: "Is it true? Is this true?"
