Chapter 165 Plant Deed Lv6, nice weather, just suitable for dragon slaying (4K)
In the city of this country, there is a large open space square.
This square is circular in shape, with countless blue stones that look extremely ancient and covered with traces of time placed on the edge. Each stone is engraved with different mysterious characters.
In the center of the square is a high platform made of wood.
Xue Jing was sitting on the high platform with a golden sword at the moment.
Under him was an old wooden chair woven from branches and vines.
Looking down at the people of this country who were carrying various sacrificial items and laying them out in the square, Xue Jing opened her mouth and yawned.
The sudden invasion of the other country did him a small favor, allowing him to directly display his personal force in front of the Presbyterian Council of this country without any other reasons.
After that, things became very simple. After he asked Renya to translate that sentence, although there was silence for a while, no one dared to stand up and object.
The people of the Presbyterian Church took to the table on the spot, and the man who was a handsome man knelt down, expressed his surrender, and welcomed him, a foreigner, as the king of this country.
Xue Jing had no intention of making the emperor addicted, and directly ordered the Dragon God sacrificial ceremony to be held immediately to summon the pure-blood dragon species.
In principle, this proposal must pass the vote of the elders. After more than two-thirds of the people agree, it is determined that a ceremony will be held, and then Wu Zhu will be notified. Wu Zhu will first conduct an ancestor worship ceremony by asking the first generation of witches, and after getting the consent of the first generation, Choose a day again...
It’s troublesome anyway.
However, no matter how traditional it is, no matter how troublesome the rules are, under the absolute threat of force, nothing cannot be compromised...
Under the command of Xue Jing to "skip" the whole process, all processes were omitted and the altar construction started directly on the same day. It is expected that all preparations will be completed at noon tomorrow and the ceremony of summoning the Dragon God will be held.
Xue Jing was not familiar with how the altar was built and could not help, so he had to sit on the throne and act as a 'supervisor' doing nothing.
Bored, he opened the panel and took a look.
[Possess divinity: 1271]
After killing the dozen or so dragon species in that country, although each one was very weak and could not provide much divinity, the cumulative effect was quite considerable, with a total of more than 500 divinities. .
In addition to the more than seven hundred he originally held, the number of divinities he now holds has reached four digits.
"How much divinity have I gained by entering the junction this time?"
Xue Jing recalled briefly.
It cost 1,200 divinity to upgrade to one level of Shadow Flame.
After being upgraded to the third level of Planting Deed, there are a total of one thousand and six divinities.
The total of the two is two thousand eighty, plus the one thousand and two currently held, minus the five hundred provided by [The Man in the Mirror]...
This junction, so far, has provided him with almost 3,500 points of divinity...
Almost a harvest of seven divine relics!
Coupled with the continuous death battles with dragon species, the regular skill experience gained...
"This is taking off a bit." Xue Jing muttered.
All that's left is the last pure-blooded dragon species.
I don’t know how much divinity it can provide if it can be killed?
Or... what can be harvested is not just divinity.
Xue Jing was thinking, Renya, who was standing next to him like a maid, whispered:
"Your Majesty the King."
Hearing this, Xue Jing came back to her senses, glanced at her, waved her hand, and said:
"What the king...just keep calling me Xue Jing, Renya."
Renya curled her lips and said: "Your identity has been approved by the Council of Elders, recognized, and written into the 'Book of Laws'..."
"If I were as young as you, I would be scolded by the Presbyterian Council."
Xue Jing touched her chin: "You are my royal translator and my only communication channel. How dare they be the same age as you?"
Renya didn't understand the meaning of 'I' at first, but when the simultaneous interpretation earphones received this word that was difficult to translate, the specific meaning was quickly explained to her.
This is the title of an emperor, a ruler.
Renya complained: "I see you enter the state very quickly."
After a pause, she continued: "Maybe it's a kind of inertia... Because I'm known as 'the most useless witch in history'. I can't even tame a dragon, so they have always bossed me around like this." , Even now, they still look down on me.”
Xue Jing smiled and said softly: "Don't worry, after about tomorrow, you will no longer be the 'most useless witch in history', but the 'most legendary witch in history'."
Renya was silent for a while, her eyes were firm, and she whispered:
"What do you need me to do?"
Xue Jing reached out from the pocket of his tactical uniform and took out four... no, it should be three and a half snake-killing sharp claws.
After thinking about it, he took back two of them and handed only two intact ones to Renya.
"After the dragon god is successfully summoned in the sacrificial ceremony, you find an opportunity to nail these two claws into its body."
Renya reached out and took the two claws that made her feel a little frightened for no reason. She covered her wildly beating heart and asked, "Where to nail them?"
The person in the mirror in Xue Jing's bracelet said: "Anywhere will do...but the torso or the head is best."
Renya rubbed her two beautiful claws shining with silvery white light with her fingers, and said doubtfully: "But... with my power, it is impossible to hurt Lord Dragon God, right?"
Xue Jing said: "Just prick it, don't think about anything else."
Renya was silent for a while and said with some disappointment:
"Then...will I die?"
Attacking the Dragon God at close range... No matter what happens to the Dragon God after being attacked, her fate is obvious.
Will she die?
Xue Jing did not answer immediately, but pondered for a moment and said seriously:
"I can't guarantee you this, Renya."
"Your actions are dangerous, I won't lie to you."
"You may die, you may not die... The probability of death is much greater than survival."
"All I can say is that I will do my best to protect your safety wherever possible."
"What you are about to do is such a dangerous thing."
Xue Jing reached out and touched her head and said gently:
"If you are afraid, you can refuse this matter. There is no need to feel burdened. This is just human nature."
Renya was stunned for a moment, a little lost.
There was a glimmer in her eyes and she murmured, "Why didn't you lie to me and say there was no danger?"
"Why don't you threaten me and force me to do this?"
Hearing this question, Xue Jing burst out laughing.
"...I am not so depraved as to deceive and coerce a little girl."
He paused and said gently: "The relationship between us is an equal partnership between you and me. Regardless of these things, you are also my friend. I will not do such a thing to you."
Renya's eyes brightened: "What if I choose to refuse?"
Xue Jing smiled and said: "Then I will kill the Dragon God alone."
Renya's eyes became brighter and brighter: "Without my help, it would be difficult for you, right?"
Xue Jing nodded: "To be honest, yes."
"If you don't help me, the probability of me killing the Dragon God will become very low... close to impossible." Renya's voice was trembling: "Can't you do it without me?"
Xue Jing said solemnly: "I can't do this without you. Only you can help me. Only you can do it."
Tears suddenly fell from the corners of the girl's eyes.
"Only I can do it..."
"How can I refuse after hearing such words..."
For the first time in her life, the shrine maiden, known as the 'most useless person in history', had her self-worth affirmed.
…
"Did you act just now? Are you lying to her?"
In the valley, Xue Jing was walking, looking for the dragon thunder plant.
The previous dozen dragon thunder seeds had almost been destroyed in the death battle with the third guardian dragon. This time he faced the pure-blood dragon species, and he had to collect more.
Facing the question from the person in the mirror, Xue Jing smiled and said:
"Why do you ask? Do I look like an actor?"
The person in the mirror was silent for a while, shook his head and said, "It doesn't look like acting, but I think your acting skills are very good."
"...I'm just out of curiosity. Did you deliberately play the emotional card in order to get her to volunteer?"
Xue Jing thought for a while and said, "One third of it is intentional."
"I do think that if you say it like this, it should be able to touch her and make her do it voluntarily."
"...However, nothing I said was a lie."
"If she doesn't want to, I won't force her. This is a voluntary cooperation between you and me."
"I need to kill the Dragon God, and she needs it too. Under the premise that both of them need this result, I just gave her a slight push."
Xue Jing squatted down in front of a golden corolla, gently touched the petals with her fingers, and engraved a seal on it.
"If it comes to this, Renya still chooses to refuse because of fear."
"Then it means that her character is only at this level. I would not trust such a person to hand over the key 'paw' to her..."
The person in the mirror sighed: "You are very mature...not like a child."
Xue Jing put the golden seeds into her pocket and said with a smile, "Is this a compliment?"
The person in the mirror crossed his arms and did not reply. Instead, he glanced at the glasses Xue Jing was wearing and said jokingly: "Actually, you have an easier way to make her work for you wholeheartedly."
Xue Jing knew what it meant, so she just shook her head and said: "If it is really necessary, I will not be stingy about using this face."
"Only if it's really necessary."
The person in the mirror snorted and said jokingly: "Am I telling you about my face? You are so narcissistic."
…
Throughout the whole day, Xue Jing collected dragon thunder plant seeds everywhere in the territories of various guardian dragons.
The final harvest was about twenty-five or six.
It's not that more can't be collected, but that the upper limit of the Plant Deed has been reached.
In order to contract more seeds, he even used 1,200 points of divinity to upgrade the Planting Contract to another level, reaching the same level as Shadow Flame, Level 6.
Now, he has completely stretched his strength to the extreme that it can currently reach, and Aban really doesn't have a drop left.
By the time he returned to this country, it was already close to noon the next day.
At this time, the altar has been set up in the square.
Various ritual utensils were placed around the square. The meat of many creatures and various foods with local characteristics that Xue Jing could not recognize were used as offerings to fill the square that had become an altar. at.
Hundreds of people from this country wearing various colors of sacrificial attire are waiting for the ceremony to begin.
On the high platform in the middle of the altar, Renya had heavy makeup on her face, was wearing a witch sacrificial dress, and a gorgeous ceremonial crown. She was sitting quietly on her knees, holding a hook-blade-shaped sacrificial vessel in each hand.
Xue Jing did not enter the city, but stood on the hillside from a distance, looking down at the sacrificial scene below.
Time passed slowly until noon, when the sun was high in the sky, the sacrificial ceremony officially began.
Wu Zhu under the high platform seemed to be saying something. After he finished speaking, all the sacrificial staff started to take action, and Renya also started dancing on the high platform.
As the ceremony progressed, a mysterious invisible force seemed to gradually emanate from the altar.
"Boom——!!"
An earth-shattering thunderous explosion was heard, and Xue Jing looked towards the center of the junction - the Roaring Waterfall.
Huge golden lightning was constantly shooting down from the sky, and every time one fell, he could hear a thunder after a while.
"call out--"
Under Xue Jing's gaze, a huge shadow soared into the sky from the roaring waterfall.
Its speed is so fast, and because the distance is far enough, it doesn't seem like the experience is profound.
However, the continuous screaming sonic booms emitted from its body and the white air waves spreading along its path all revealed one fact.
Xue Jing's pupils shrank: "Supersonic speed..."
At this speed, his body might not be able to bear just standing on its back, let alone being hit by this speed...
Xue Jing looked carefully, and her strong eyesight clearly imprinted this monster flying at supersonic speed into her eyes.
There is no doubt that it is a dragon.
Xue Jing has seen a lot of dragon species since entering the border area, but no dragon has ever given him such a strong 'dragon' feeling.
Its whole body is filled with a terrifying and domineering aura that is absolutely superior to any living thing and is at the top of the food chain.
It is a natural temperament, as if it is destined to be above all living things from birth, there is no room for doubt, it is arrogant to the extreme, and it is natural to the extreme.
The bark-like dragon scales are not as rough as the three guard dragons at all, but are as delicate as if they were carefully crafted by the gods, elegant and luxurious.
Huge wings, a streamlined and slender body, a slender swaying dragon tail, and the two sharp dragon horns that curve upward above its head.
On top of the dragon's horns, there are winding brown branches, and the branches are blooming and dotted with beautiful flowers like cherry blossoms.
"That's a pure-blooded dragon...a true dragon."
Xue Jing's eyes contained excitement, as if she had some realization.
"Be careful, act according to the plan, don't be impulsive." The man in the mirror reminded.
"Don't worry." Xue Jing said softly as he looked at the real dragon that cut through the air and pulled out a sonic boom cloud.
He took a deep breath, touched the Futu Dao hanging on his waist, and looked up to the sky.
In the cloudless sky, there is only one sun standing in the middle of the sky, shining down rays of sunshine.
"The weather is nice, just perfect for dragon slaying."
