The sun rises, and the warm morning light shines on the Great Zhou City, shining brightly.
The Palace of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
When Zhou Yuan, who had been awake all night, arrived in front of the palace gate, people and horses were already standing there. Thousands of imperial guards were wearing heavy armor, and their spears and spears were shining with cold light, showing strong military power.
Zhou Qing sat on a flaming red horse, smiling at Zhou Yuan who was hurriedly approaching, and said, "Are you ready?"
Today is the day of the Great Zhou Ancestor Sacrifice.
Zhou Yuan nodded vigorously, with a strong look of hope surging in his eyes. He knew that it would depend on today whether the eight meridians in his body could be reappeared and he could start to practice the meridians.
A guard led a fiery red horse over. The horse's tail tip was burning with flames, but the head position was a slightly ferocious lion's head.
This is a fire lion horse, a first-grade origin beast with long endurance and the ability to gallop thousands of miles without resting.
The originally irritable fire lion horse had been tamed long ago, so when Zhou Yuan turned over, the fire lion horse just flicked its fire tail and became quiet.
"Father, let's go." Zhou Yuan pulled the reins of the horse and said with the young man's dark eyes seeming to be burning.
Zhou Qing smiled and nodded, then waved his hand.
Woo!
The sound of horns resounded, and then thousands of heavily armored warriors turned into a torrent, guarding Zhou Qing and Zhou Yuan in it, and then poured out of the palace with rumbling vibrations, along the way.
Follow the streets in the city and head straight out of the city.
...
The place where the ancestors of the Great Zhou royal family worshiped was where the Imperial Mausoleum of the Great Zhou Dynasty was located. The imperial mausoleum was hundreds of miles away from the Great Zhou City, but based on their journey, they would arrive in two hours.
Under a majestic green mountain, both Zhou Qing and Zhou Yuan dismounted. The Imperial Guards were spread out here, guarding various passages. Even flying birds would be shot if they came close.
"This is where the imperial mausoleum of our royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty is located."
Zhou Qing pointed to the majestic green mountain in front of him, was silent for a while, and said slowly: "Our Zhou family started from here, and finally worked hard to create a great Zhou Dynasty. But I didn't expect that the efforts of our ancestors would
He was actually beaten back to his original shape in my hands."
Looking at Zhou Qing's somewhat gloomy face, Zhou Yuan said softly: "Father, there is no need to blame yourself. The Wu family calculated in their head but not intentionally. No one could predict it after hundreds of years of calculation, so it is not my father's fault."
Zhou Qing gave a forced smile and said no more. He just walked up the stone staircase paved with bluestone and said, "Follow me."
Zhou Yuan nodded and followed closely.
The stone stairs lead to the top of the green mountain, and there are 9,999 stone stairs that go straight up to the sky.
The two walked up slowly, with solemn expressions. After burning incense, they arrived at the top of the mountain. At the top of the mountain, they saw a black ancestral temple standing, ancient and vicissitudes of life, as if it had gone through the years.
Standing in front of the ancestral hall, Zhou Yuan turned his head and looked down at this height. His eyes suddenly lit up, and he saw three mountains standing vertically on the land, faintly forming a natural word "Sichuan".
The three mountain ranges were winding and creeping, like hidden dragons, guarding the green mountain at their feet, like three dragons holding beads, and a majestic momentum arose spontaneously.
"What a strong momentum." Zhou Yuan exclaimed in admiration. The ancestral land of their Zhou family seemed to have excellent feng shui. No wonder they were able to establish a dynasty.
"There is luck between the heaven and the earth, and the feng shui of the earth's veins counts as one. My Zhou family is able to gain momentum thanks to the feng shui of the ancestral land." Zhou Qing said with a smile.
Zhou Yuan pursed his lips and said: "Earth Feng Shui counts for one point, but more importantly, it is the efforts of our ancestors. Tian Xingjian is a gentleman who strives for self-improvement. As long as he is diligent and self-reliant, no matter how bad his cards are, he will have a chance to turn around."
"Just sitting back and enjoying the success, no matter how good the cards are, there is a danger of overturning."
Although the young man's voice seemed a little immature, the faint tenacity revealed made Zhou Qing look at him with admiration, and the smile on his face was even more gratifying.
"It seems that the experiences over the years are not necessarily all bad."
Zhou Qing touched Zhou Yuan's head, and then walked into the ancestral hall. Zhou Yuan followed, and saw that in the main hall, there were spiritual tablets enshrined one after another, and incense was lingering. These were the ancestors of the Zhou royal family. Under the leadership of Zhou Qing
, Zhou Yuan lit incense and saluted each of the spiritual tablets.
Finally, Zhou Qing's footsteps stopped in front of a spiritual tablet in the deepest part. This was the first founding emperor of their great Zhou royal family. After Zhou Qing saluted respectfully, he stretched out his palm and gently turned the spiritual tablet.
Boom.
As the spirit tablet turned, a deep sound suddenly came out, and then Zhou Yuan was surprised to see that on the stone wall behind the spirit tablet, a thick and secret stone door slowly opened.
Inside the stone gate, it is slightly dark, deep and mysterious.
Zhou Qing looked behind the stone door with a somewhat complicated expression and said, "Whether you can open your meridians and practice cultivation depends on this place."
When Zhou Yuan heard this, his expression became much more nervous. He clenched his palms tightly and his eyes were filled with anxiety. No matter how young and old he was, he was still just a young boy. He still couldn't remain absolute in front of such a big thing that related to whether he could open his pulse and practice.
of calmness.
Zhou Qing glanced at Zhou Yuan, and then walked into the stone door. Behind the stone door was a long stone wall corridor, with everlasting lamps burning in the corridor, bringing dim light.
Neither of them made a sound, and there was only the faint sound of footsteps in the entire corridor.
After walking like this for about ten minutes, Zhou Qing and Zhou Yuan stopped because the corridor had reached the end, and what appeared in front of them was a wide ancient cave.
At the end of the cave, there stands a stone platform.
Zhou Qing came directly to the front of the stone platform. Only then did Zhou Yuan discover that there were many ancient origin patterns engraved on the ground on the stone platform. These origin patterns formed an unpredictable pattern.
With Zhou Yuan's current attainment of Origin Patterns, it was impossible to tell which grade these Origin Patterns were. He just vaguely described them in his mind. He felt that his soul was being consumed a lot, and he felt slightly dizzy. He quickly looked away.
"Father..." Zhou Yuan looked at Zhou Qing, could he solve the problem of his eight meridians not showing up here?
Zhou Qing looked at the ancient origin patterns on the stone platform, his expression became more solemn, and he said: "In our Zhou family, there has always been a secret word passed down orally. That secret word said that in this secret room, there is something hidden.
A great opportunity can help our Zhou family truly prosper forever."
"The key to unlocking this great opportunity is the bloodline of the successor of my Zhou family. However, although the emperors of our Zhou family will come here and try to open it with blood, in the end, they all fail without exception.
."
At this point, he looked at Zhou Yuan and said: "So I brought you here to see if you can open this great opportunity. If you succeed, it shouldn't be difficult to solve the problem of your eight meridians not showing up.
."
"oh?"
Zhou Yuan looked at the ancient stone platform in front of him and was amazed. He obviously did not expect that such a secret message was spread among their Zhou family.
"Go." Zhou Qing patted Zhou Yuan on the shoulder and said.
Zhou Yuan took a deep breath, beating a drum in his heart, but he still mustered up the courage, walked up to the stone platform, and sat down cross-legged among the ancient and mysterious origin patterns.
He took out a sharp knife, gritted his teeth, and drew it directly from his wrist. Blood immediately flowed out, and then spread along the scratches of the origin patterns.
In just a few breaths, the source patterns on the stone platform turned into bright red.
Outside the stone platform, Zhou Qing looked at this scene and couldn't help but clenched his hands tightly, his eyes filled with nervousness.
Feeling the flow of blood, Zhou Yuan's fragile and immature face suddenly became even paler. He stared at the complicated origin patterns, his heart beating like thunder.
"Is this my last chance..."
Zhou Yuan clenched his teeth and endured the waves of dizziness in his mind. At this moment, the scene of his mother Qin Yu vomiting blood appeared in front of his eyes again, which made his heart sting.
"My mother's vitality and longevity were greatly damaged because of me!"
"My father had his arm cut off by King Wu because of me!"
"My own destiny was taken away, the roots of the holy dragon were broken, and the poisonous energy ate my life!"
"I am in great danger of internal and external troubles, and I am in danger of overthrowing at any time!"
"So, I want to change everything. I want to restore my mother's longevity, my father's ambition, so that my people in the Great Zhou Dynasty will no longer be afraid, and I will regain everything I have lost!"
"...I, Zhou Yuan, will decide on this great opportunity!"
The roar suddenly resounded in his heart. At that moment, Zhou Yuan's body seemed to tremble violently, and faintly, it seemed as if there was an angry and unwilling dragon's roar resounding from the deepest part of his body.
Buzz!
At this moment, the ancient source pattern covered with blood on the stone platform burst into bright light. The light gathered together, like mercury, and quickly enveloped Zhou Yuan.
The sudden change shocked Zhou Qing who was outside the stone platform. He hurriedly looked at Zhou Yuan. Then, he was shocked to see that when the light gathered together, Zhou Yuan who was sitting cross-legged among them actually appeared.
