Chapter 673 Make the mountain people great again! (6600)
Whether Ian has the blood of mountain people is another matter, but there is no doubt that he does have the blood of mountain people.
After driving away the G-blade, Elder Manya took Ian and Qingchao back to the core of the Avod tribe, which was above the sacrificial room where Ian had 'recuperated', and in the sacrificial platform located on the mountainside.
Here, Ian once again called out the sacrificial seal, causing the silver-gray dragon shadow to appear in the altar. It rotated and rose in the altar, like a living creature.
——It’s not a forgery, Ian has indeed received the inheritance from the Dragon God Priest of Xiahui Lake!
After confirming this, Elder Manya was not only shocked but also filled with ecstasy.
After hundreds of years, the true priest of the Dragon God was born, and the inheritance returned again... Could it be that my wish that had been almost unattainable for many years finally came true?!
However, after calming down, the old man knew that things would not be that simple.
Ian can obviously sit back and watch his breakthrough fail and become the real core high-level leader of the Nanling Dragon Worship Cult - Anfa is a Canaanite Moor, the Mountain King and Xiou are real dragons, and they are not in the same lineage as humans, and Pansha has no second
Energy level - He can obviously wait, use the most comfortable method to obtain power, and then use the sacrificial seal to summon the mountain people in the department.
But he didn't do that.
This only represents one possibility... that is what Ian wants, which is far greater than the power of the Dragon Worship Cult and the Avod Tribe.
"Ian, what do you want to do?"
Taking a deep breath, Elder Manya said solemnly: "As long as I can meet the conditions, I can agree. But there are some things that even I can't do, and you can understand."
"It won't be that troublesome. I'm going to Qiangang Mountain." Ian said calmly, without concealing his purpose: "It's not the ordinary mountains that are soaked in the power of the Dragon God, but the real ones that are soaked by the power of our mountain.
A holy mountain revered by the people as a holy place.”
"Holy Mountain...yes, yes."
The elder frowned: "What are you going to do there? It has been silent for a long time, and the Dragon God sacrificial fire lit by the tribes in the past has been extinguished for two hundred years..."
"Yes, it needs to be silent for a long time and it needs to be extinguished."
Ian showed a faint smile: "And I will light it again."
As he said this, a water-colored halo flashed in the young man's eyes, showing his firm will: "Elder Manya, I want to become the messenger of the Dragon God in the true sense."
"Then, put down the turmoil among the mountain people, and let the mountain people - or in other words, let all the humans living on this land prosper once again."
"This is my purpose."
"You want to put down this rebellion... use the Holy Mountain to prove your identity as an envoy..."
Elder Manya was silent for a while, then raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows.
He wanted to say it was impossible - but facing Ian, who had given him unexpected surprises several times, the old man was a little unsure.
"Okay." Finally, he made up his mind: "Then I will take you there."
"But before that." Elder Manya looked at Ian deeply: "You have to explain the ins and outs of all this to me... Whether it's the Book of Silver Glory or your inheritance, I want to know.
"
"Of course it is." The white-haired boy agreed with a smile.
The bloodline of Elder Manya is the wind-attribute dragon beast ‘Shao Weilong’ distributed around the Baisen Mountains.
A kind of dragon that can stir up strong winds, move clouds, and dance in the storm.
Once upon a time, there were several groups of Taiwei dragons serving the Baisen Dragon God, and their legacy was left among the mountain people. However, with the departure of the Dragon God, the dragon groups also retreated deep into the mountains.
Coupled with the fact that the Book of Silver Glory was wandering outside, except for a few lucky ones, such as Elder Manya who had some bloodline due to his return to his ancestors, this Dragon Guard inheritance was basically completely lost.
But now, it has returned.
Under the guidance of the 'Dragon God Messenger'.
Ian, Qingchao and Elder Manya walked towards Qiangang Mountain.
After receiving Ian's assurance that he could be trusted, Qingchao also followed.
The swordsman himself was actually a little hesitant, not knowing whether he was worthy of participating in such an important event.
But Ian didn't take it seriously: "There will be more big scenes in the future, you'd better start adapting now."
"And I also need you to be a witness."
"How big of a scene can there be?" The swordsman murmured to himself: "My hometown doesn't have this kind of scenery... My God, it's so beautiful."
He looked at the scenery in front of him and couldn't help but admire it.
The long road in the mountains reflects the white light of the moon under the moonlight at night. It winds forward and goes deep into the mountains. At the end is a peak, a blue-black metal mountain.
That is Qiangang Mountain.
The Avud tribe has guarded the holy land for generations. The name of Elder Manya is also taken from a poem by the mountain people, "Walking on the Long Cliff", and everyone is now walking on the Long Cliff, which is a mountain with two protruding peaks.
, a cliff bridge formed by interlacing.
From here, you can overlook most of the Qiangangshan Mountains. At the bottom of the cliff is a dense mountain forest of red and yellow, with streams flowing in the forest, reflecting the moonlight in the sky.
On the side of the mountain forest is the gathering place of the Avod tribe, with golden lights intertwined together like a chessboard made of light.
Elder Manya, who is named after this, believes that it is his bounden duty to protect the tribe and the mountain people, and the dragon blood in his body makes him firmly believe that he is the chosen one born to pull the mountain people out of the abyss.
.
But now, he is a little doubtful.
It's not because of other mountain people, but because of a white citizen who claims to have the blood of mountain people.
During the journey, Ian modified some details of his experience in Avak Territory and informed Elder Manya.
In his words, when he was in the imperial capital, he had already read the entire contents of the transcript of the Book of Silver Glory through the channel of Count Phoenix, and sensed the unique aura of the Book of Silver Glory.
In the Azure City Laboratory, he sensed the aura of the Book of Silver Glory again, and vaguely resonated with the spiritual energy in the book in the subspace maze, gaining some inheritance.
And as if it was destined by God, after Ian returned to the Ryan Territory, because of these inheritances, he successfully obtained a more complete sacrificial inheritance from Xiahui Lake.
The sacrificial seal is proof.
It sounds ridiculous, and in fact it was all made up by Ian, but it is not impossible.
Magic books and holy books, as psychic creations inhabited by psychic souls, will naturally find successors on their own.
If Ian is really the chosen son of the Dragon God and the true messenger of the Dragon God, as he said, then it is not difficult to get the recognition of the Book of Silver Glory.
This is something that cannot be faked.
Many lies, ending with one truth, Elder Manya could not find any flaws.
Even if we find it... so what?
Ian did give him the complete third-level potion formula of Shao Weilong, as well as the related advanced rituals.
——Entering the clouds on a stormy day, the spiritual energy field condensed by oneself stirs the clouds, forming a vortex of a specific shape. When a large amount of wind-attributed natural source material gathers, you can advance by taking the magic potion.
Although it has not yet been verified, Elder Manya's years of experience in researching his own bloodline convinced him that the formula and rituals given by Ian were correct.
This also convinced Elder Manya that Ian was indeed not on the same side as the empire.
"You said you wanted to go to Qiangang Mountain, and it was the Dragon God who guided you. To be honest, Ian, the Dragon God will not guide anyone, whether they are mountain people or white people."
"Even if He has not died, He will not return now. I am sure of this."
Walking on the long cliff, Elder Manya said slowly: "But I don't care about your lies. The Holy Land has been sealed for many years. Both Feiyan Land and the Empire are spying on its secrets. Even we mountain people are not allowed to enter.
If you enter, you can obtain the sacrificial seal, which can be said to be closer to the status of a subject of the Dragon God than us mountain people."
"If you can really get something from Qiang Steel Mountain...then the Avod Tribe will fully recognize your identity as the Dragon God's envoy."
Previously, Elder Manya acknowledged Ian's identity as the Dragon God's envoy. In essence, he only recognized the dragon blood that Ian possesses. He only endorsed this for Ian. The rest was blown out by the young man himself by hiring a bard in Nanling.
.
But this time, what the old man promised was "the full support of the Avod tribe" - whether Ian wants to conquer other mountain tribes or become the co-leader of the mountain tribes, Manya elders will support him.
"I will use practical actions to prove that I am indeed a person blessed by the Dragon God, and I have the blood of mountain people."
Regardless of what Elder Manya said, Ian just insisted on his rhetoric: "As long as I can go to Qiangang Mountain, I can definitely make you believe this."
Elder Manya was silent. He felt that the reason why he had not made much progress in unifying the mountain people for so many years was probably because he lacked the shamelessness of Ian.
——If you want to call yourself a mountain person, you must at least tan your skin!
After crossing the long cliff, you can face the mountain of Qiangang Mountain directly. The dark metal surface of the mountain is surrounded by clouds. After hundreds of years of wind and rain, it is still as smooth as new. The sloping mountain wall is like a mirror reflecting the depth of the mountain.
The sky gives people a sense of desolation and loneliness.
Birds hovered under the clouds and chirped.
Just based on appearance, Qianggang Mountain is indeed a magical place beyond ordinary people’s imagination, and it is worthy of the name of the holy land of mountain people.
"The top of the mountain is the former Dragon Nest Altar. The Dragon God once slept here for ten years. His power turned the entire mountain into steel, making the originally fragile rock mountain indestructible."
At this time, there was no road under his feet. Elder Manya raised his head and stared at the top of Qianggang Mountain. Behind the clouds, there was an ancient and dusty black rock sacrificial place.
The old man stared at the Holy Mountain. He introduced to Ian in a tone that was mixed with nostalgia and pride: "This is the epitome of the past glory of our mountain people. In the past, when the Dragon God's people were at their peak, every ten years, the people of various tribes would
Leaders will gather here to decide the future of each department."
"At that time, the dark top of the holy mountain will be ignited with silver-white light, and the dragon god's sacrificial torch will shine on the mountains of heaven and earth, like a second sun."
"Ian, our ancestors once overlooked the mountains on this mountain top, and the Dragon God's people roamed and grew up in these mountains. The mountain people call themselves mountain people, not the wild mountain savages that your empire calls them.
, our mountain is the grass and trees in this mountain range, the bright moonlight in this silent sky, the rivers and streams flowing in the gorge, the calm and peaceful deep lake... In this mountain, under the ancient altar
, in the smoke of each tribe, is our hometown."
"The mountain is our hometown and a symbol that unites us."
"But now, everything has passed. The people of the Mountain God are falling apart, and I can only watch all this happen, and I can't even stop it."
Ian listened to Elder Manya's words, and he could hear the distress in them. This was obviously a concern for the other person.
The reason why the elder has not advanced to the third level may be because he has not changed the tendency of the mountain people to be divided and chaotic. He has not yet fulfilled his wish and cannot believe in his own beliefs and dreams.
Therefore, the soul and body cannot reach resonance, complete the final 'unification', and give birth to the mind-light body.
According to Ian's analysis, the real difficulty in the third energy level is actually the resonance and synchronization between the two thinking organs, the 'brain', which represents the body's thinking center, and the 'soul', which represents the essence of psychic energy.
When the second energy level gives birth to the soul, it begins to carry a lot of brain work. Whether it is memory, calculation, or the skills to manipulate the source of matter, the soul is gradually absorbing nutrients, condensing its own structure, and becoming more and more agile.
Quickly, and when the soul can completely serve as the 'second brain' and become the second thinking center of the sublimated person, the sublimated person has generally reached the peak of the second energy level.
However, the way of thinking and even logic of these two thinking centers may be different.
Just as the left and right brains have different functions and are independent of each other, the same is true for the soul. When the brain and the soul think about a question at the same time, they are likely to come up with different answers. This sense of confusion and confusion may create something like a demon.
The general whispering situation causes the sublimated person to experience auditory hallucinations.
Some people with severe symptoms may even experience hallucinations and be unable to correctly recognize everything around them. It is as if they are possessed by inner demons and have completely changed their person.
The Ascended Ones of Terra have a very simple way to deal with this.
That is ‘desire’.
Ambition, dream, wish or desire - any word can be used. In short, the sublimator must correctly understand the desire in his heart, practice it, and sublimate it into the final 'belief'.
An extremely determined person whose brain and soul share the same 'consensus' belief.
Taking this as an opportunity, the mind and soul can be merged into one, the soul and the body are completely integrated, and then the "heart light body" is condensed.
Elder Manya's soul has naturally been condensed long ago, and his body has been polished to perfection. In the precognitive vision, Ian saw that Elder Manya was dark purple with a trace of green light inside. This is the peak of the second energy level.
sign.
Theoretically speaking, at this point, even if he transforms into a dragon, Elder Manya has a very high success rate, and he will not risk his own life.
However, his dreams and beliefs were flawed.
It's a bit embarrassing to say that the old man may not believe that he can unify the mountain people and bring the people of the Baisen Mountains under the same flag.
So, he is stuck here.
The third level is such a troublesome thing. It doesn't even have anything to do with talent, it's just a belief in one's own ideas... That's why Mikael said that as long as he becomes the third level, he will no longer deceive himself.
Have absolute rational and objective self-knowledge and will never make any mistakes in terms of subjective bias.
This kind of sublimation in thinking mode is also the most important characteristic of sublimators besides strength.
Ian is actually stuck here too.
In Avak Laboratory, catalyzed by the power of the dead king, he already has a mind-light body. Ian's belief is "towards". Whether it is his brain or his soul, he firmly believes that this is his wish.
However, under the guidance of instructor Gan Song, Ian had some understanding.
Going there is indeed his belief...but this belief is not big enough, not majestic enough, not vast enough.
It can represent Ian's own dream, but it cannot completely represent the dreams of those who believe in Ian, follow Ian, and look at Ian with expectation.
Hilliard, Elder Puder, Master Gosei, Isengard, Qingchao, Scott and Adlbert... these people all more or less entrusted their dreams to Ian's hands.
Even... the reason why Inega II, who had never been masked before, took out the silver chip and handed it to Hilliard was because he hoped that a successor would complete his unfinished business.
There should never be just one star.
"Ian...if you are really the messenger of the Dragon God, then you must understand."
At this moment, Elder Manya said softly: "The Holy Mountain has been silent for hundreds of years. Countless people want to reawaken it and find out its secrets - without exception, they all failed."
"But if you can make the Holy Mountain shine again - it will shine because of you."
"Then, maybe the mountain people can unite under your command."
The old man turned his head and stared at the young man's profile: "Are you confident?"
"Can you make it?"
"I will succeed."
The young man's side face was extremely calm, and his tone was not one of confidence, but a calm declaration, declaring the fact of the future.
For a moment, the old man was in a daze, as if the young man in front of him was a prophet who had foreseen the future.
He did not believe in it, but just "naturally" led to a successful outcome.
While Elder Manya was in a trance, Ian had already stepped forward.
He stepped on the solid bluestone mountain and climbed towards the top of the mountain step by step.
In the precognitive vision, the entire Qiangang Mountain is filled with 'sublimated materials' glowing with blue mist... And under such a huge and pure mist, there is a mist of gold and silver shining.
It was a cylindrical thing, buried in the center of the mountain.
Just as Ian guessed, the Qiangang Mountain guarded by the Avod tribe does contain important legacies left by the Baisen Dragon God in the past - but whether it is the fragments of the spaceship that fell from the sky or something else, today's Yi
Well, I'm not sure.
The fragments of spaceships that fell from the sky should not be that common, but the secrets inside Qiangang Mountain must have a lot to do with the real dragon.
The majestic and steep dark mountain is like a sharp sword, reaching into the depths of the sky. Clouds linger beside its peak, and strong winds stir at its summit.
Ian walked among the rocks, crossing the clouds and strong winds alone. He could sense that the silver chip in his body was vibrating and reacting, and the spiritual energy imprinted by the Book of Silver Glory was also vibrating, an invisible force.
Information is flowing between the two.
"Mountain people... you want to unify, and I need my tribe - the Xiahui Territory is still too small to realize my wish."
Whispering to himself, Ian's tone was not firm or convinced, but a calmness that did not require any emphasis: "So, it's up to me."
"I'm here to lead you to the future I want to build."
This is the true meaning of the blue star that guides the way forward...
Pioneer, forerunner.
The one who guides the way forward.
[Permission confirmation...]
Vaguely, I can feel a slight flow of information flowing through my heart.
Then, one after another silvery gray lines lit up under Ian's feet.
Complex sacred inscriptions emerged as he climbed and each time his footprints fell, lighting up an extremely bright and glorious road on Qiangang Mountain in the middle of the night.
A path of silver-white light that leads directly to the top of the mountain is unfolding under Ian's feet, making the entire pitch-black holy mountain reflect this bright light.
"Oh my God?!" "How is that possible?!"
Watching this scene, both Qingchao and Elder Manya exclaimed. The former was simply because he sensed the huge response of the source of matter, while the latter opened his eyes wide because of the strange phenomena that appeared on Ian and the Holy Mountain.
, even the most prosperous era of the mountain people has never appeared!
At this moment, Elder Manya had 100% believed in Ian's identity as the Dragon God's envoy - no matter what the white people and mountain people were, in the final analysis, the people of the Dragon God were just a group of human beings protected by the real dragon. If Ian was indeed
If he is recognized by the real dragon, then he is a more pure mountain man than anyone else!
"But... why not me?" A fleeting reluctance flashed through his heart, but soon, the old man no longer had the energy to care about these small things.
Because the entire Holy Mountain of Steel emitted a slight buzz.
It's trembling.
At this moment, whether it is the Manya elders or Qingchao present, or the many mountain people in the Afud tribe not far away, dozens of different mountain people tribes in the distance - it can even be said that the entire
All the mountain people in the Baisen Mountains subconsciously raised their heads at this moment and looked in the direction of Qiangang Mountain.
Their blood was shaking, and there was an invisible force that made it difficult for them to calm down.
Nanling, Midela Autonomous Region, Jiamubu.
Chief Kede Jiamu stood on the tribe's meditation tower built on the rocky mountain. This middle-aged man, who looked much younger, touched his beard and looked down at the prosperous tribe in front of him and the alchemy workshop that was gradually being built.
, as well as the element crystallization production line not far away.
He couldn't help but smile from the bottom of his heart.
The recent period of time can be said to be Chief Jiamu's most contented time - with the help of Feiyandi and his years of planning, he finally advanced to the third level and became the true leader of the Independent Mountain People's Alliance.
Even the person in charge of Feiyandi no longer talks to him as arrogantly as in the past, but wants to negotiate and communicate with him.
It is true that the independent mountain people failed to attack the Xiahui Territory and lost a lot of manpower and equipment... but that was not his tribe!
The decline of Snake Rock, Zhenzhou and Tiechen tribe gave him the opportunity to annex and absorb. Also following his momentum to become the third energy level, Chief Jiamu successfully placed the two element crystal production chains in his own
In the tribe.
In this way, Tajia Mubu will become the absolute core of the independent mountain people!
"The next thing to do is to coordinate with the dragons to capture the Frodo Autonomous Region - then, with an outlet to the sea, the Flying Flame Land will be able to send more supply resources!"
Thinking of this, Chief Jiamu's heart couldn't help but tremble slightly. He felt that the independence he had just talked about in the past seemed to be no longer a dream, but a future that could be realized!
And he will also become the holder of the highest power in the Mountain Alliance in the future...the first leader to truly unify the mountain people again!
However, just when Chief Jiamu clenched his fists and thought about the future.
He suddenly looked stunned and stopped all movements.
Slowly turning his head, Chief Jiamu looked in the direction of Qiangang Mountain with an expression of disbelief.
There, in the sky where there were only a few light flowing clouds, a silvery-white light suddenly lit up - that light, all the mountain people living today have never really seen it, but they learned it from the mouths of their ancestors.
, I have heard it from the legends left by our ancestors.
That is the torch of the Holy Mountain, the sacrificial flame of the Dragon God... The Holy Mountain of Qiangang has revived again, a sign that the mountain people will prosper again!
"How can this be?!"
He was stunned. Chief Jiamu leaned forward and almost fell off the meditation tower.
But it was too late for the man to react to this embarrassing gaffe. He looked at the sky in disbelief: "The dragon god's sacrificial fire - was actually lit again?!"
A rumor suddenly appeared in the chief's mind. He shook his head and said to himself in disbelief: "Could it be that the messenger of the Dragon God that has been circulating recently..."
