In the inner city of the imperial capital, there is a special area in the central area that is not controlled by any super family. It was in this area that Zuo Feng originally fought against the ghost hunter.
That place covers an area of dozens of acres, but it is just one building in this area. There are many buildings of different sizes scattered around it, even the size is about the same as that of the Bi Arena.
There are also two huge buildings.
People of all kinds gathered from the outer city and inner city of the Xuanwu Imperial Capital towards the central area. To be more precise, it was the largest building in the center.
Fengchan Altar is the earliest name for this place, but it was called this countless years ago. In other words, it was only after Xuanwu re-established the imperial capital that a special Fengchan ceremony was held here. Since then, no one has mentioned this name.
Pass.
The original "six major families" worked together to assist the then leader Xuan Yicao in defending the empire, and held a grand ceremony on this Zen altar.
The significance of the ceremony mainly lies in the fact that all families work together in pain, and with the slogan of supporting Xuan Yicao, they call on all parties belonging to the Xuanwu Empire to jointly drive away the three empires of Ye Lin, Fengtian and Prairie that invaded Xuanwu.
Therefore, the Fengchan altar became the most important place at that time, and it represented a ritual unity between the king and the six major families.
It was also after that ceremony that the six major families tried their best to lead the warriors of the Xuanwu Empire, and in turn drove out the enemies of the three empires. Afterwards, the purpose of the Fengchan Altar was also changed, and the Xuanwu Empire focused on developing the art of refining medicine.
It has also been decided that a drug selection competition will be held every four years.
And this Zen altar has naturally become an important place for the Yaozi Selection Ceremony. The most solemn convening of each Yaozi Selection and the final canonization ceremony of Yaozi will be held here, making it the most formal ceremony in the Xuanwu Empire.
A grand ceremony place.
People gathered from all directions and entered the square from around the Zen altar.
If you look at the environment here, it is somewhat similar to the original Supreme Arena, except that the area is much wider.
Surrounding the Fengchan Altar is a broad circular platform, which extends outwards and upwards in the shape of stairs. It is definitely not a problem to accommodate tens of thousands of people on a single platform.
However, not everyone can come to this platform. The platform is divided into several areas. There will be a low wall in the adjacent areas, which does not prevent each other's sight of each other, but only reminds not to cross.
The surrounding platforms are prepared for people with status and status, so the people who come on the platform must at worst be leaders of hundreds of warriors under their command.
There are naturally countless such figures in the entire Xuanwu Empire. Looking at the many empires on the mainland, such figures are naturally as numerous as the crucian carp crossing the river.
However, there is a small area above the stand, which is separately divided. In addition to the platform, this area also has a platform like an arm stretched out.
This area belongs exclusively to the king of the empire, and that special platform is specially prepared for the king. Others are not qualified to come here.
At the moment, the seat that belongs to the leader of the empire is empty. Not a single person can be seen, including not a single person on several nearby platforms. Instead, the square below is crowded with people of all kinds.
this.
Surrounded by the stands is a large square. In this square are some people with ordinary status. After all, even the most ordinary people can watch the prosperous age of the Xuanwu Empire, and even those in other empires who do not want to reveal their identities can also watch.
You can mix in the square and observe.
There is a high platform in the center of the square. The whole high platform is made of pure white marble. Each large stone weighs several thousand kilograms. After being cut flatly and neatly, it is stacked in the center of the square. The high platform looks majestic and unique, and matches the unstained color.
The pure white color adds to the noble atmosphere.
Just over two days have passed, and the only topic the crowd is talking about is the Yaozi selection. Naturally, the title of Yaozi has been the focus of attention in previous competitions, but this year, the focus of people's discussion is another Xuanwu treasure, the Imperial Formation.
of crystal.
By obtaining the Imperial Formation Crystal, you can not only control part of the imperial capital's protective formation, but you can also use the Imperial Formation Crystal to decipher and study the core of other formations. It can be said that the existence of this Imperial Formation Crystal is equivalent to having a
Use the * to deal with the formation.
Of course, it cannot be said that the Crystal of the Imperial Formation can be obtained, and all formations in the world can be used without rejection, but at least with it in hand, it can achieve twice the result with half the effort when encountering formation difficulties.
"This drug selection competition is probably the most lively in many years. Those who perform well can obtain the qualifications for the ancient trial. I am afraid this is the most important thing for all families."
"Haha, you only know one but not the other. The drug selection competition only selects a part of the candidates who participated in the ancient trial. Each family among the super families can still have one qualification to enter."
"It's true that the most important thing in selecting a medicine player is the medicine person's title and the crystal of the imperial formation. These two are the things that make people jealous and heart-beating."
"Why did the king agree to take out the Imperial Formation Crystal? This thing should have been preserved by the empire. If this title of medicine is given to someone with "evil thoughts", wouldn't even the empire's treasures have to be given away?
What a human being."
"Hey, this matter is not something that we people have to worry about. You are the leader of the country and several elders who don't have any brains. If you dare to take it as the highest prize, you must be sure of the title of medicine."
Several people in the crowd were talking loudly. It could be seen that although these people lived at the bottom and did not have a high status, they could still accurately capture news from all directions.
While they were talking, someone not far away slowly came closer, as if they wanted to hear clearly what they were saying.
One of these people can be considered an old "friend" of Zuo Feng, and Lian Yun, the "black hand" who had repeatedly said that he wanted to kill Zuo Feng, was among them.
At this moment, Lian Yun's face was a little pale, his eyes opened weakly, and he stared at the surroundings with a dull look. He would occasionally yawn, and his body would tremble subconsciously while yawning.
"Lian Lao, your situation is still so bad? Isn't it, last night..."
"Stop talking, I've been tortured crazy these days. I hope the Xuanwu matter will be settled as soon as possible, otherwise I really don't know if I will have a chance to get out of Xuanwu alive."
"Lian Lao, you are in a very bad state of mind these days. Could it be your hallucination? Otherwise, how could you have it every night..."
"Huh? 'Hallucination'! What kind of hallucination is this? It's clear that someone is deliberately trying to 'play me to death'. Every night in the middle of the night, there is a blurry figure standing beside the bed, and I can feel the sharp short blade.
It was attached to the skin next to my neck, but when I fully opened my eyes, there was no one there."
Lian Yun shook his head in a state of exhaustion and said in a very regretful tone: "When I looked at that figure, it was probably the woman I teased at the gate of the city. Oh, wrong, wrong, wrong."
Lian Yun said three "wrong" words in one breath, and his regret was palpable. A strong figure came from a distance. After seeing Lian Yun and the two, he walked over silently, just in time to hear Lian Yun.
Yun's last words.
The man who came was as strong as a hill, and his sideburns and beard were like sharp needles. Although his eyes were small, they were dazzling. He heard Lianyun's words, but he was laughing secretly in his heart. When he spoke, he said
: "Brother Lian Yun doesn't have to be so pessimistic. Although he can't confirm the identity of the other party now, since he doesn't dare to explain, he has some scruples. As long as the whole Xuanwu is in chaos, I believe that no matter who the person is, he will no longer have the leisure to care.
I love you."
Lian Yun glanced at the big man who came over, shook his head and said: "City Lord An is quite reasonable, but I feel that the more I get to this juncture, the less safe I am. Have you checked over the past few days to find out who the group of people who entered the city that day were?"
What identity."
At this time, an old man about sixty years old suddenly appeared. As soon as he arrived, he said with a gloomy face: "Hmph, have you forgotten the purpose of coming here? Xuanwu's selection of medicine will start today.
, you still have time to discuss things here. Lian Yun, you'd better not bring your personal matters here. If you have any trouble, you have to wait until the matter here is settled."
As soon as the old man arrived, the few people he spoke to immediately bowed their heads respectfully and remained silent. Lian Yun, who was already like a defeated rooster, was snatched away by the old man and did not dare to say another word.
Several people bowed to the old man who had just arrived, and said in a low voice: "Ten Elders."
This old man turned out to be one of the ten elders of the Ye Lin Empire's elders. It was this man who came to Yancheng to investigate the strange phenomena of heaven and earth. It was also this man who led people to capture Zuo Feng. If not
The drunkard Xing Yezui secretly let Zuo Feng go, but the ten elders would inevitably take him back to Ye Lin.
This group of people greeted each other and did not pay attention to the surprised looks around them. Even if the competition for medicine selection was just beginning today, they did not need to dodge anymore.
There is a group of people who are somewhat similar to Ye Lin. This group has a large number of people, and each of them wears strange clothes. The wide leather robe is draped diagonally on the shoulders, and a piece of animal sinew is tied around the waist to fix the leather robe.
Everyone in the Xuanwu Imperial City was not surprised by this outfit, because people from the prairie usually dressed like this.
After a large group of them entered the square, they also spread out to listen to what people were talking about. This approach was very similar to Ye Lin's group.
At this moment, two large stone doors on the stone wall behind the white jade stone platform were opened wide with a "rumbling" sound, attracting everyone's attention.
Behind this door are the people participating in the competition. This door is wide open, which also means that the people participating in the competition are about to appear.
