In midsummer, in August, the Golden Orchid Festival arrives.
The country is already bustling with excitement.
At this time, all kinds of demon clans gathered in the Zhuzi Demon Kingdom to participate in the grand event. The gorgeous stream of light spread across the sky, forming a radiant stream that enveloped the sky around the ancient horned dragon tree.
Warriors of all races who came from all over the Northern Continent gathered in front of the palaces of the thirteen royal cities, preparing to show off their skills at the Golden Orchid Festival.
In the palace of Yuhua City, Yuyi, who was wearing a splendid costume and an exquisite jade crown, stood quietly in front of the main hall, looking at the eager warriors of all races outside the palace, with little joy in her eyes.
The fourth royal city, Yuhua City, is dominated by fox demons and cat demons. The strength of fox demons and cat demons is not weak. Most fox demons and cat demons can awaken magical powers in speed, charm, perception, etc.
Furthermore, fox demons and cat demons are very agile, proficient in illusions, etc., and their strength is not weaker than that of other demon clans, so they often get a good ranking in the Golden Orchid Festival.
But this Golden Orchid Festival is different.
Whether it is the candidates from various palaces selected during the Golden Orchid Festival or the defeated warriors of various races, the fate of all demons has already been determined, including them, the princes of various palaces.
Thoughts were flowing in her mind, but Yuyi's face was extremely calm, and there was even a slight smile in her amber eyes: "Does the Taoist know the origin of the Golden Orchid Festival?"
Jiang Sheng, who was sitting aside, shook his head when he heard this: "I don't know."
Yuyi raised her head and looked in the direction of the Horned Dragon Ancestral Tree, and said softly: "Actually, there was no such thing as the Golden Orchid Festival in the Monster Clan before. "
"The Golden Orchid Festival first appeared nearly 20,000 years ago."
Jiang Sheng also looked at the Qiu Long Ancestral Tree. Did the Golden Orchid Festival appear after the Qiu Long Ancestral Tree? ?
Yu Yi continued: "The Golden Orchid Festival is not only a grand gathering for our demon clan, but can also be seen as a sacrifice to the Qiu Long Ancestral Tree."
"A grand event that happens once in five hundred years, a sacrifice that happens once in five hundred years."
"Speaking of which, when I participated in the Jinlan Festival, I still had many thoughts and ideas, but it was not until I entered that I realized the true meaning of the Jinlan Festival. Meaning."
Jiang Sheng frowned and grasped the key point of Yu Yi's words.
Go in, where?
The ancient dragon tree?
Boom~
Boom~
Boom~
The mighty bell rang, the bell seemed to come from the sky, it must be the bell ringing in the Demon Emperor's Palace.
The sound of the bell means the official start of the Golden Orchid Festival.
Soon, the rumble of drums and the sound of horns appeared at the same time.
Big drums continued to roar like thunder, and along with the desolate and distant chants of horns, the demon clans in each royal city began to boil.
Jiang Sheng was keenly aware that even the delicate and elegant-looking fox clan maids around him were showing their wild side at this time.
One by one, their fox ears and fox tails were exposed, and even their original white and slender fingertips grew sharp nails.
Ruoyouruowu's evil spirit began to linger and permeate the sky, and the skylight like broken glass and jade above the sky also became evil, as if there were colorful drops falling on the Milky Way, creating a patchwork of ripples.
The entire Yuhua City was boiling and noisy, but the two of them remained calm.
One is Yuyi and the other is Jiang Sheng.
Jiang Sheng's whole body was surrounded by clear light. Sitting quietly on the jade bed, he seemed to be detached from the world, calm and indifferent, watching life.
But Yuyi suppressed this wild call with a certain mental method, and there was not even a trace of blush on her white jade face.
Just listen to Yu Yi say: "This is the sound of the war drum of my demon clan. It can awaken the blood of the demon clan and will not have much impact on the demon clan's spiritual consciousness."
"It seems that their sanity is damaged, but they are all sober. This is just to give them a little help in the end."
Jiang Sheng nodded: "I understand."
The demon clan's Jiang Sheng naturally knew something about war drums.
After all, he was once the enemy of the three Xuanmen sects. Not only did the three Xuanmen sects have a thorough understanding of the Monster Clan, but they also basically knew about what the Monster Clan had and what trump cards they hid. Eight.
As the three drums fell, Yuyi raised the seal of Yuhua City, and saw a ray of skylight projected from the clouds, covering the entire palace.
Yuyi said: "Taoist Master, please don't resist."
Hearing this, Jiang Sheng gave up the use of his magic power. The next breath was accompanied by the flow of skylight, and an unprecedented suction force acted on Jiang Sheng.
Jiang Sheng felt as if the world was turned upside down. In an instant, he appeared in a palace that was very similar to the palace of Yuhua City.
Under the palace, under the clouds, is a brand new world.
This world is extremely vast, with rivers, jungles, mountains and wilderness all present. It is a completely real world.
At this time, there are already many demon clans in this world, and all kinds of demon clans are scattered among them.
“This is where the Golden Orchid Festival is held.”
“The various celebrations and fights held in the thirteen royal cities are nothing more than trivial details.”
“This is the real selection place.”
“All demon clans participating in the Jinlan Festival selection are now in this trial place, fighting for one thousand three hundred places. ”
Listening to Yuyi's explanation, Jiang Sheng looked at the trial ground below.
How many demon clans are qualified to participate in the Golden Orchid Festival?
There are tens of millions of monsters from all over the Northern Territory and Continent who have come to participate in the Golden Orchid Festival, and there are no less than a million who are qualified to enter this trial.
With so many demon clans, only one thousand three hundred can win in the end.
Natural selection and survival of the fittest are absolutely correct when viewed from within the demon clan.
Yuyi smiled again and said: "When the slave family participated in the Golden Orchid Festival in the past, I was lucky enough to get a fourth place, and that's how Yuyi became today."
Jiang Sheng looked at Yuyi: "With His Highness's The strength can definitely compete for the top three. "Jiang Sheng is not praising Yuyi. Yuyi's strength is not weak. Whether it is within the Monster Clan or looking at the entire mountain and river world, the one who is stronger than Yuyi is only two palms. .
It looks like a lot, but think about how many creatures there are in the entire mountain and river world, and how many geniuses have been cultivated by various forces in the five continents?
The only person who is stronger than Yuyi is the Taiyi Yuanshen realm.
But how many people are there in total among the younger generation of Taiyi Yuanshen in the Shanhe Great Realm?
Jiang Sheng can sense the strength of Yuyi. Under her seemingly delicate and harmless appearance, there is extremely terrifying power.
The city lord of Yuhua City, the prince of the fourth palace of the demon clan, did not come to power simply by relying on scheming and beauty.
If you think about it, you can clearly understand that in the Northern Continent, where the jungle is strong and the jungle is strong, how can someone stand out from hundreds of millions of monsters? How come they have any obvious weaknesses, and which ones are just in vain?
Yu Yi shook her fan, her beautiful eyes slightly squinted, her expression a little lazy: "Why fight for the top three?"
"The Taoist priest has a pure and inactive temperament, and the slave family is too lazy to fight for the false reputation of being fearless."
"Don't fight for the top three, otherwise it will be a fight."
Jiang Sheng pointed out. Nodded: "What your Highness said is in line with the Jade Faced Fox Clan's usual caution."
"Speaking of which, I asked Your Highness earlier why the Monster Clan made such a big show of asking me to come here."
< br>"His Highness said that he would know when the Golden Orchid Festival begins. Now that the Golden Orchid Festival has begun, how long will His Highness keep it secret from me?"
Hearing this, Yuyi smiled and said, "Don't be impatient, Taoist Master, the good things are all behind you."
Jiang Sheng chuckled lightly, but there was no smile in his eyes: "Your Highness's thoughts are mostly mine. I can guess some.”
“It’s just that you want me to help His Highness fight for something. If you come to this Golden Orchid Festival, not only will they take action, but you, the Thirteenth Palace Prince, will inevitably end up. Right?"
Yu Yi nodded simply: "Yes, Taoist priest's guess is not bad at all."
"We are going to end up too."
Saying that, Yuyi looked outside the palace: "Have you seen the other palaces, Taoist Master?"
"We, the princes of the demon clan, are all here at this time."
"It stands to reason that with our status, we can sit outside the Qiu Long Ancestral Tree and watch others fight life and death."
"Anyway, even if these newcomers come to the fore, they are just candidates for various palaces, and they still have to deal with Wagging behind me and begging for mercy."
"But there is something in the Dragon Ancestral Tree that we have to fight for."
Jiang Sheng looked like he was all ears: "Oh? May I ask what kind of thing is it worth all of your troubles?"
Yu Yi did not answer directly, but motioned Jiang Sheng to look at the experiment below. The place of refining.
In the trial area below, millions of monsters have started a bloody and cruel fight.
Even if all types of monsters belong to the same species, they will show no mercy at this time and kill each other in the most decisive and straightforward way.
In just a short moment, many monsters have died, and their blood has been spilled on the ground.
Yuyi said: "There are one thousand three hundred jade tablets in the trial place. The one who can stand at the end and hold the jade tablet in his hand is the winner and has passed the first level."
"Enter. After entering this place of trial, there is no way out. You can either go to the end alive or die here and return to heaven and earth. There is no other choice."
"Taoist priest, do you think this is the case? Does the trial with thousands of people look like a sacrifice?"
Jiang Sheng frowned slightly and looked at the cruel killing below: "Sacrifice?"
Yu Yi continued. : "Yes, it is a sacrifice."
"A sacrifice is held once in five hundred years to honor the Ancestral Qiu Dragon Tree."
"Every Golden Orchid Festival is a grand sacrifice. The blood of millions of monsters is used to water the Ancestral Qiu Dragon Tree."
< br>“And every ten thousand years, the Horned Dragon Ancestral Tree that has undergone twenty sacrifices will give birth to twenty fairy fruits.”
“Fifteen of them are red fruits and five are purple fruits.”
“The name of this Zhuzi Demon Kingdom is not only because our demon clan is respected by Zhuzi, but it can also be seen as a metaphor for the Zhuzi Fairy Fruit.”
"These twenty fairy fruits will be provided to the ancestors in the Demon Emperor's Palace. Among them, the red fruits belong to the Demon Lord and the purple fruits belong to the Demon Saint."
"But this time, the Demon Emperor's Palace allows us to fight for these The purple fairy fruit.”
“Not just us, but also you.”
The purple fairy fruit!
The spiritual roots of heaven and earth that mature once every ten thousand years!
Demon King Palace has even taken out such treasures? !
Now not only the princes of the Demon Emperor's Palace are allowed to compete, but also the true successors of the three sects and two temples are allowed to compete together.
It is indeed a holy land-level force that has ruled the Northern Continent for 40,000 years. The Demon Emperor Palace is really willing to give up. It has brought out the red and purple demon fruits that ripen every 10,000 years.
Yu Yi continued: "Does the Taoist priest know what the effect of this Zhuzi Fairy Fruit is?"
"The Vermilion Fairy Fruit not only contains countless essences of spiritual energy, but can also reshape living beings and awaken new magical powers. Means.”
"A red fruit can break through the realm and refine the void; a purple fruit can prove Taiyi."
Jiang Sheng frowned and looked at Yuyi.
Yu Yi smiled and said: "I dare to ask, sir, are you willing to compete with the slave family for this purple fairy fruit?" (End of this chapter)
