Li Xuanqing is not the kind of person who gives up easily. Since there is a way, she must try it.
Whether it can be successful or not is another matter.
That night, she got the method of enshrining the trial place from Lingtai Sect, and then took the medicine according to the prescription and asked the disciples to prepare what they needed.
She herself was not idle, and studied this method carefully all night to ensure that the entire worship process was memorized and there would be no accidents.
Early the next morning, the entire Mieling Sect was in motion, and everyone was busy non-stop.
Lingtai Sect is a large sect, and it is also an immortal sect that pays great attention to worship. It usually worships some gods and monsters in the sect. If it is a special worship, it will work even harder.
The ceremony was so grand that more than a hundred disciples from the Mieling Sect were mobilized, but they were unable to support it. In the end, they had to borrow some people from Master Xuanle and Elder Liu of the Yushan Sect.
With the help of disciples from the two sects, the offering of medicine according to the prescription was barely able to begin.
The first step in making offerings is to set up an altar.
The location of the altar is very particular. It must be a little bit forward under the trial door, so that the monsters in the trial door can see it directly.
The shape of the altar is also very particular. Li Xuanqing did not copy the lotus altar of the Lingtai Sect, but adopted a wavy shape.
The reason is very simple. The monsters that attacked last time were fish monsters. They should like water more.
This reason is very good, and Master Xuanle also nodded in agreement.
On both sides of the altar, there are several stone sculptures in the shape of fish monsters. They face the altar, which means worship.
After the altar is set up, the next step is to offer sacrifices.
The fish monster eats people, but it is impossible to use people to worship it... and it is impossible to use fish!
Therefore, when choosing sacrifices, Li Xuanqing chose as many types as possible, including three animals and five animals, and all kinds of food were put on them.
After the altar and sacrifices are prepared, the next step is to provide incense, candles and other items for worship. These items are readily available in the Mie Ling Sect and were used to worship the ancestors of the past generations. Now they can be used directly without any scruples.
After all these are prepared, the next step is to choose the officiant. There is no doubt that this one must be Li Xuanqing himself.
The last item is the sacrificial speech.
The sacrificial words are used to communicate with the monsters in the Trial Gate. Even if you don’t know whether the other party can understand them, they must be there. In order to ensure that the other party can understand the content of the sacrificial words, they must be accompanied by corresponding gestures.
and dance.
After a set of procedures, it feels a bit like dancing with a master.
Of course, this is not a dance in the traditional sense, but represents the negotiation between the Soul-Destroying Gate and the monsters in the Trial Gate. To be more precise, it is a transaction!
This is much more serious than dancing to the great master.
After everything was ready, Li Xuanqing took a deep breath and slowly walked up to the altar.
This time, a sacrifice is made that determines the fate of the Mie Ling Sect. Its result will affect the life and death of the Mie Ling Sect.
If it succeeds, the Soul-Destroying Sect can not only escape the disaster, but also get a treasure land with abundant spiritual energy, which is extremely suitable for cultivation.
For Mie Ling Sect, this is like pie in the sky.
If it fails, the consequences will be very serious, and the Mieling Sect will have to consider moving away, or risk their lives.
Once something unexpected happens to the Trial Gate, the Soul-Destroying Gate will be in danger of destruction.
Li Xuanqing's mood was very complicated at this time. She was both excited and a little humiliated. She stood on the altar for a long time before she managed to calm down.
After a while, as Master Xuanle rang the bell, this grand worship finally began.
At this time, Lu Xiaoyue had just been freed from her busy schedule and was already so tired that she was about to collapse.
After running through the twenty-seven cities in the north, she originally thought she could put this matter aside for the time being, but she didn't expect an accident to happen so soon.
The next day, Bai Xiaolou received news that shocked her on the spot.
Lingjing City, located on the border of Hanling Kingdom, rebelled!
In the past, Lingjing City did not obey the orders of Hanling Kingdom very much. When the royal family of Hanling Kingdom lost its command, it became even more unscrupulous. It has long been publicly stated that it is no longer a city of Hanling Kingdom.
However, these were only the opinions of local powerful people, and the city lord had not expressed such intentions. Therefore, Lu Xiaoyue went to this city specifically to bring him back to Hanling Kingdom.
It was a pity that the city lord did not meet her, but refused to meet her very arrogantly.
In the end, Lu Xiaoyue had no choice but to put down a harsh word and let him make the final decision: "Before next year, if you are unwilling to cooperate, you will have to let go of the city lord...otherwise, don't blame me for being rude!"
However, she never expected that the city lord of Lingjing City could not wait until next year and launched a rebellion just a few days later, taking the entire city to join the Xishang Kingdom next door.
After receiving the news, Lu Xiaoyue was stunned for a long time, and then made a quick decision and rushed over with four disciples of the Eagle Shadow Sect.
Pointing directly at the City Lord's Mansion in Lingjing City.
Her purpose is simple, to suppress the rebellion within a very small scope without spreading or getting involved.
The rebellion was the decision of the city lord, and only a group of people in the city lord's palace could be affected. In addition, most of the people in Lingjing City did not participate in the rebellion, and were even less aware of it.
They have been Hanling people for hundreds of years, how could they suddenly betray their country?
In just one hour, Lu Xiaoyue rushed from Daling City to Lingjing City on the border, and then flew directly to the city lord's mansion.
She did not hesitate to deal with these rebellious people and used thunderous means to deal with them. Only one person suppressed all the guards of the city lord's palace and relieved everyone of their combat effectiveness.
After doing this, the shopkeeper of Baixiao Tower from Lingjing City hurried over.
Seeing Lu Xiaoyue, he carefully bowed: "Um... I've met Master Lu!"
"Yeah!" Lu Xiaoyue responded with a gentle nod.
She had just eliminated the entire city lord's palace guards at this time, and was so happy that she didn't even have the strength to speak, and didn't want to say anything more.
However, her silence does not mean that Shopkeeper Hong of Lingjing City knows nothing. On the way here, he has received a lot of news. He knew that Master Lu rushed into the house of the rebellious Lord of Lingjing City alone.
They are clearing holes in the plow court and killing all the rebels.
When he first heard the news, Shopkeeper Hong would not believe it no matter what, but not long after, news about Lu Xiaoyue came again.
This time the news is even more shocking.
In less than ten minutes, Lu Xiaoyue had already dealt with the entire city lord's palace guards, and was waiting for him to take people to accept them.
At this time, shopkeeper Hong couldn't sit still at all. He rushed over running and jumping, and finally saw with his own eyes the situation in the city lord's mansion.
At this time, the city lord's palace was full of wailing, and there were injured and fallen guards everywhere. Almost none of them could stand up, and all of them had lost their fighting ability.
