Four hundred and seventieth chapters dream realm (six)
At noon, Dashi Village altar.
There is no distinction between day and night in the land of eternal night. The sky and the earth are always shrouded in darkness. However, in the villages and towns where humans live together, because of the existence of fire sacrifices, people still retain the daily routine before the dark years.
Noon is also the time when the sacrificial fire is most powerful and bright.
The altar area was particularly lively today.
There were hundreds of villagers who came to watch the fire trial!
The fact that Xiao Gao wanted to undergo the Fire Sacrifice Trial had long been spread in Dashi Village. Due to Jin Xiong's widespread publicity, everyone knew that there was a little guy who overestimated his abilities and wanted to become a fire bearer.
In Jin Xiong's words, Xiao Gao is destined to become a joke, and it is an inevitable outcome to become firewood for sacrifices!
"Participating in the Fire Trial at a young age, isn't this looking for death?"
"I heard that he is not from our village."
"Young man, you want to be in the spotlight, you don't know the dangers of the fire trial."
"He killed a wolf."
"I know, it must be good luck. Even the best hunter in our village can't say he can defeat a wolf alone."
"That makes sense."
"After you go up there, you won't have a chance to regret it!"
"If it was so easy to become a fire bearer, then there wouldn't be only seven people in our village."
"hehe."
The villagers who were watching were talking a lot, and basically no one was optimistic that Xiao Gao could pass the fire test.
This is actually normal. The success rate of the Fire Trial is too low, and his age is too young.
There were also many people who looked at Xiao Gao and Xiao Ying who had just arrived in front of the altar with sympathetic and pity eyes.
Priest Mingzhen was already standing beside the altar.
He asked seriously: "Xiao Gao, are you ready?"
Xiao Gao looked at his sister beside him and nodded vigorously: "Priest, I'm ready!"
"very good."
Priest Mingzhen stretched out his hand and gently brushed Xiao Gao's forehead, and a faint white light appeared in his palm: "May the ancestors protect you!"
Xiao Gao took a deep breath and stepped onto the stone steps leading to the top of the altar.
At this moment, he suddenly felt something strange.
Xiao Gao turned around subconsciously and saw Jin Xiong standing not far away with a few companions, with a vicious smile on his face, looking at him with contempt.
The two looked at each other, and Jin Xiong shook the little finger of his left hand at Xiao Gao.
This is a gesture of contempt!
Xiao Gao glanced at the other party coldly, and his steps towards the top of the altar became more steady and powerful.
At this most critical moment, he would never let a scum affect his mood.
Compared to a few days ago, Xiao Gao is really much more mature now.
The sacrificial fire is already close at hand.
At this moment, Xiao Gao could completely feel the heat emitted by this white-gold flame.
Now he is like a moth flying into the flame. Whether it will be destruction or nirvana, no one can know!
Once you fail, you will surely die!!
Standing on the last step, only three steps away from the fire sacrifice, Xiao Gao's hair began to bend due to the high temperature, the skin on his face and body turned red and hot, and the blood in his body was flowing faster.
His heart was beating extremely hard!
There was silence around the altar, and everyone looked at Xiao Gao intently.
Xiaoying's eyes were filled with tears. She held her mouth with both hands, fearing that she would shout out and interfere with her brother's trial.
At the same time, she prayed desperately to her ancestors in her heart, asking them to protect her brother.
Under everyone's gaze, Xiao Gao passed the last step.
Bravely rushed into the sacrificial fire!
Although everyone is familiar with this scene, people still exclaimed and marveled when they saw this young man standing in the flames so bravely and decisively.
It hurts! It hurts! It hurts!
As for Xiao Gao, who was surrounded by the sacrificial fire, the only thing he felt was pain.
There is no place in the whole body that is not in pain. This extremely anxious pain penetrates every inch of the skin, seeps into the muscles and bones, and reaches directly to the internal organs. The body seems to be burning inside and outside.
Xiao Gao could no longer breathe, his heartbeat was several times faster than usual, and a large amount of blood rushed to his head, making his head almost explode.
Although he had various expectations before, the young man never imagined that the fire trial would be so terrifying!
His courage and will were obviously not enough to resist this kind of exercise that could destroy both body and soul at the same time. After gritting his teeth and persisting for a moment, his spirit showed signs of collapse.
Xiao Gao is too young and too weak.
Under the scorching heat of the sacrificial fire, his body also showed signs of burning.
I'm going to die.
The young man had a clear understanding in his heart.
Countless memories emerged in his mind, and all kinds of past events flashed past.
But the contents of the memory were so bizarre that Xiao Gao was still familiar with them, but gradually he couldn't understand them anymore.
These strange memories were completely beyond his common sense and involved two strange worlds. He could actually teleport back and forth between the two worlds...
The flashback speed of thoughts is getting faster and faster, and more and more memories are revealed.
The flash of lightning finally settled on a roaring golden dragon.
Xiao Gao couldn't help but trembled all over, showing a look of horror.
He remembered that he was not at all a young man from Dashi Village in the Land of Eternal Night.
He is Gao Jing, Gao Jing from Blue Star!
Xiao Gao, no, it should be said Gao Jing, awakened his memory at the most critical moment!!
Gao Jing remembered.
When he was dueling with giant warriors on the Endless Lake, a golden dragon suddenly appeared, opened its bloody mouth and swallowed everyone into its body.
Strong warriors such as Gao Jing and high-ranking giants were unable to compete and lost consciousness on the spot.
So what is the situation now?
Gao Jing found that although he had recovered his memory, his body was still that of a emaciated teenager.
His original strength was gone, and all the equipment on his body was gone.
Is this real or is it a dream?
Intuition told Gao Jing that whether it was reality or hallucination, if he failed to pass the fire sacrifice test in front of him.
He will die too.
Real death!
The problem is that without the original strength and equipment, how can he reach the sacrificial fire that is about to burn him?
Gao Jing couldn't help but put his hand on his left chest and his heart.
His palm touched a metallic object - an extremely familiar touch!
Copper anchor!
The copper anchor is still there!!
Gao Jing's confidence instantly rose to its peak, and he activated Bronze Anchor's ability without thinking.
However, what Gao Jing never expected was that the copper anchor did not allow him to return to the main world immediately, but instead poured out a large amount of power of faith and poured it into his body continuously!
Gao Jing's strength is recovering at an astonishing speed.
Although this situation was completely unexpected, Gao Jing did not lose his composure, and a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed through his heart!
