Chapter 268 Prologue
The engineering team of the Enlightened Ones did not lie.
In order to show their importance and high standards, they built the altar on the top of the hundreds-meter-high building of the Enlightenment's headquarters in Casting Light City. When the canopy is removed, looking from a distance, it looks like a striking vermilion stalagmite has emerged from the building.
Thanks to today's powerful materials and engineering, even if it is built quickly, the entire altar is twenty-seven meters high. The whole body is engraved with laser beams and covered with patterns such as flowing clouds, Kui dragons, treasure elephants carrying bottles, etc. Statues of immortals, demons, gods and Buddhas are hung on the gondola to watch the ceremony.
“It’s troublesome as hell”
It was already four o'clock in the afternoon on the second day.
Passing through the special steel cauldrons placed on the ground, the large sacrificial clothes that were specially put on were almost dragging on the ground. Song Shi clicked his tongue, pulled his waist, straightened the crooked sacrificial crown, grabbed the hollow of the steel frame on the surface of the sacrificial altar, and quickly climbed to the top.
At a height of nearly two hundred meters above the ground, the environmental heating caused by the geothermal power plant is negligible. The printed colorful flags are swaying violently in the airflow, and even visible to the naked eye, they have been covered. A thin layer of white frost.
Song Shi snapped his fingers.
There is no need to expand [Scorched Earth], with the youth as the center, the scorching heat wave spreads silently, as if the sun is rising, the frost layer instantly melts away, and even evaporates directly before it can turn into water mist. Dry volatilization.
But on top of these adhering layers of frost.
Higher than the icy air whistling in your face.
The sky is still as dark as every moment in the past. No matter whether the clouds are thin or thick, not a trace of sunlight shines down. A cold wave that seemed to have existed since time immemorial swept across all directions, engulfing everything in the world.
Song Shi stared at the sky for a moment, and finally gave up the idea of attacking.
One blow from the surface directly to the [Macrostate Light Energy Matrix] located in the satellite orbit. This magnitude of distance would have caused trouble even for myself at the peak of my previous life.
"Huh"
The wide cuffs fell naturally, and Song Shi stood in the center of the high platform, slowly raising his hands.
Close your eyes.
When I opened it again, I saw the boundless starry sky in front of me.
——Daotu·【Dayuan】.
Song Shi looked up at the starry sky. From the depths of his pupils, a bit of darkness suddenly appeared, turning the whites of his eyes nearby into pitch black.
Just when everything was about to turn into pitch black, another red gold emerged, flowing like burning fire, slowly opening a thread.
Then, the flames roared.
From the body of its driver, wisps of flowing fire emerged silently, swirling around, intertwining with each other, and almost in the blink of an eye, they merged into a surging black wave!
But this powerful force, which was enough to burn down and submerge a city block, did not cause the slightest sound.
It's as if they are afraid, or in other words, they dare not make any changes before their owner gives permission.
Song Shi raised his hand and then clenched it tightly.
As a result, the sea of fire, fueled by hatred and anger, roared suddenly, and violent murderous intent rose into the sky, as if it wanted to smash the stars hanging in the sky!
——And the stars all over the sky, at the moment when the "disaster" broke out, were like a gorgeous Milky Way waterfall, reflecting the entire sky magnificently and brightly.
But he was not angry because of the "disaster" that soared toward him.
Those stars that bloomed with completely different but equally dazzling rays of light were "jumping" and "joyed" in a daze!
Cheer for the new psychic skills created by the latecomers after I have been unable to walk on the path I once walked on.
The stars are moving.
"This is 'Nandou', and it is also the creation of 'Song Shi'——"
Even if the words sound as smooth as possible, under the slightly distorted voice , but it is a violence that is difficult to completely suppress.
He opened his hand, and the dark flames, which were no longer restrained, were raging in all directions: "——This is [Misfortune]."
"My 'Misfortune'." Song Shi said calmly: "No less than 'Sui Shi'. No, when I step into the fifth ring, I will integrate 'Huo Yan' for the second time." He raised his eyes and looked around the starry sky, towards the stars in the sky, just like in Explaining the undeniable truth: "——After that day, my 'Misfortune' will surely surpass 'Sui Shi'!"
The world seemed to have stopped for a moment.
Then, there was a voice. No, it was a way of communication that could not be contained in "language". If it had to be said, it was a query that went straight to the depths of the heart, more akin to "heart".
Song Shi "heard" and "understood" the meaning of this intention.
——Ritual.
The road is asking, the ritual of [Misfortune].
Just like the founder of [Suishi], the ceremony to obtain [Suishi] set additional conditions that it must be sacrificed on the road. As the creator of [Misfortune], Song Shi can also influence to a certain extent the content of the ritual for future psychics to obtain [Misfortune].
This is not the generosity "given" to the psyker by the path, but the inherent power of the psyker.
The path achieves the psionic person, and is also achieved by the psionic person - to a certain extent, there is no difference between the two, but they are fellow travelers who complement each other.
". Ceremony."
Song Shi smiled. Against the backdrop of the misfortune and dark pupils, this smile looked a little scary.
“Unexpectedly, it will happen again”
“——Hate and anger.”
Song Shi raised his index finger.
“If I want to get the successor of [Misfortune], I have only one request.” Song Shi said: “It will not be given to those who are always happy, and will not be given to those who are always happy - they must have hatred in their hearts, or have been I have hated them. They can achieve contentment and happiness after experiencing hatred and anger, but if it is a smooth journey from beginning to end and there is no one who hates and angers, I will never give [Disaster] to them."
< br>"The rest of the ceremony is determined by the path."
Song Shi raised his head, smiled leisurely, and looked at the starry sky: "That's all I ask for, how about it?"
< br>The starry sky suddenly dimmed.
I don’t know when or where, a ball of light quietly appeared and slowly descended from the sky.
Arrived in front of Song Shi.
——Psychic skills·[Suishi].
·······
“It took so long.”
A member of the construction team was lying on the rooftop water tank, with a large prosthetic limb specialized for engineering hanging next to him. He looked at the tall altar in the distance and couldn't help but mutter.
Recalling the previous situation, even though it had been a while, he still felt lingering fear.
About half an hour after Song Shi stepped onto the altar, a large amount of black flames suddenly appeared all over his body. He almost thought that something was wrong with the other party and that he had to notify nearby armed members—— He had seen the opponent's battle videos. Airships the size of Bordeaux were all shot down by the opponent.
If the flames spread, the whole altar would not be enough to burn.
However, he soon discovered that the flames seemed to have restrained their power, and until now, they had not caused any substantial damage, which made people sigh in relief.
Just looking at it like this, I probably have to wait for a while
The man's cheeks lit up.
It was as if light hit my face, no, the sky lit up. At the end of the horizon in the distance, a shining star suddenly rose. Its burst of light was so dazzling and even terrifying. , even if I looked at it with prosthetic eyes, I still felt uncomfortable——
Then the stars bloomed and turned into a huge straight extending light pillar.
——Go straight in your direction!
The endless torrent of energy pierced the sky in an instant from an unknown distance, annihilating everything, as if it was about to split the sky in two!
That is
the space carrier, [Groden Glory].
——The main weapon of the ship is the positron cannon.
