Chapter 122: Ancestral Spirit (Part 2)
Su Jing couldn't tell what the power was from the ancestor spirit, but it was definitely not true qi or something, nor was it immortal qi or divine power.
This force was pulled by the true qi of the dragon and snake, and it turned out that it was more and more entered the Dantian of Su Jing Qihai. The true qi of the dragon and snake turned into a long filament. This long filament formed by the true qi of the dragon and snake can wrap around hundreds of times the strange power and leave it behind.
Su Jing suddenly felt that one of the tablets worshipped above the ancestral hall suddenly dimmed. A rune lit up on the egg shell in the sea of dantian Qi. It seemed that his mysterious egg shell had absorbed the power of an ancestral spirit. But he could not even notice what kind of process such absorption was.
Su Jing was shocked. He killed an ancestral spirit himself? This was not a good thing for Xiaoyao Hou. He secretly glanced at Xiaoyao Hou's back and seemed to have no reaction.
Immediately afterwards, the luster on another tablet disappeared, and another rune on the egg shell lit up in Su Jing's Qihai Dantian.
The second ancestral spirit was destroyed. Xiaoyao Hou turned around and looked at the more than 500 people behind him. The space in the ancestral hall was huge, divided into several layers, with a drop of less than one meter high. The ones following him were of course his children and the disciples of the clan who were most trusted.
If you spread it layer by layer, those who can enter this ancestral hall will gain huge benefits.
This time, the benefits were very numerous, because it turned out that Xiaoyao Hou was not in the mansion, and the ceremony of worshiping ancestors was carried out to Su Yue, Ping'an Hou. Even if the people on Xiaoyao Hou went there, they would not be able to get much from the ancestral hall there.
Xiaoyao Hou was equivalent to distributing the benefits of more than ten years at a time. Everyone in the ancestral hall was satisfied. Only Su Jing was panicked. What's the matter? The ancestors in the ancestral hall were originally giving everyone some bonuses, but he even moved the vault. If he was discovered, could Xiaoyao Hou spare him?
Xiaoyao Hou's eyes just flashed across Su Jing's face without stopping. This was his clone, so naturally he couldn't see what was hidden in Su Jing's eyes.
Su Jing was frightened, but under the movement of the true qi of the dragon and snake, there was no expression on his face, as if it was an ancient snake entrenched, and its aura disappeared.
Just when Su Jing was worried, he saw in his eyes that one of the tablets above had extinguished the light, but he did not absorb it. In the last layer far away, Su Jian from Yizhou trembled and his eyes looked upwards.
Xiaoyao Hou's eyes also fell on Su Jian, and he sighed in his heart. After all, his luck was favored. Why did this ancestor spirit choose her?
However, Su Jian's father Su Shun had a very good relationship with him. He would forget that his daughter would get the benefits, and he didn't have to worry about it. Then Su Shun was like himself. Before he advanced to the Golden Pill, he tried hard to suppress his realm. After advancing, he made great progress. In just over a decade, he rushed to the fifth level of the Golden Pill and became a very important figure in the core of the Su family.
His daughter is even more powerful, but unfortunately she has formed a golden elixir too early and has no hope of giving birth to offspring.
This thought changed in my heart, and Xiaoyao Hou said, "Everyone, I, Su Yang, have been in Beijing for more than twelve years, but have not led everyone into the ancestral hall to worship my ancestors. I am ashamed of your followers."
There was a silence below, and another rune lit up in the egg shell in the Qihai Dantian in Su Jing's body.
"Today, everyone here, the ancestors' vows should have absorbed enough. There will always be many causes and effects in this kind of power. Don't be too greedy for entry, slowly digest and absorb it, and don't make any mistakes in cultivation. If anyone is lucky enough to be able to induce the ancestor spirit into the body, don't rush to absorb the power of the ancestor spirit. In the next ten years, the Su family will definitely be involved in the great cause of the Western Expedition. It is not easy to practice in the military. Keeping the ancestor spirit can help you overcome some mortal difficulties."
The people below were all happy and expressed in their expressions. Although the ancestors’ wishes were mixed and impure, they were also directed at outsiders. If the Su family’s own people absorbed, the cause and effect were very small.
If the ancestor spirit enters the body, it will be equivalent to ten years of hard practice. There are more tablets on the top than those on the bottom, and there will always be lucky people to obtain one or two ancestor spirits.
Su Jing had no such concepts in his mind, so he had to carefully search the prince's memory and then understand what the issue of the ancestor spirit entering the body was.
The nine major families have countless ancestral halls that worship ancestors. The wishes of people in the family will gather in the ancestral hall to form ancestral spirits. These ancestral spirits have no self-awareness and will only simply protect the family. Even the formed ancestral spirits will at most fight in the ancestral hall.
The biggest purpose of the ancestral spirit is to absorb it into the bodies of important people in the family and quickly improve their strength.
Every family has a secret method to absorb ancestral spirits. In Qingming’s true interpretation, there is content to absorb ancestral spirits. The energy of this ancestral spirit is extremely pure, hundreds of times better than the ancestor’s wishes.
If you are not from the Su family, it is impossible to absorb the power of the Su family's ancestor spirit.
For example, although Lin Hengshan and others can absorb the power of their ancestors' wishes, the ancestor spirit will never favor them. Even if Ju Yueshan and Gu Junshan have followed Xiaoyao Hou for decades, there is no such possibility.
However, things like ancestral spirit contain huge power. Qi refiners in the foundation-building stage will be full if they absorb at most one. No matter how much they absorb, their bodies will not be able to bear it. In the innate stage, they cannot gain favor from the ancestral spirit.
Su Jing is in the innate stage now and has not reached the peak level. He is already the third... No, the fourth ancestor spirit entered the body and was absorbed by the egg shell, lit up a rune.
The runes on the egg shell were originally sealed with the Iron Beast. Su Jing couldn't understand what each rune meant. Now there are four runes that have been lit up. Su Jing vaguely began to understand the meaning of these runes. However, the meaning was too vague. Each rune needs to be parsed to see how many basic runes it is composed of, and then the true meaning of this rune ban is inferred.
Su Jing's spiritual sense glanced inward and could see the cracked egg shell in his Dantian Qi Sea. After the runes were forbidden to the ancestor spirits, they were swallowing and fusing each other. The changes were all automatic, and Su Jing himself could not control them.
Xiaoyao Hou continued in front: "Now there are at least five forces recruiting soldiers in the thirteen states of the empire, and they have gathered almost four million troops. As long as the emperor gives the order, these people will cross the Six Dragon Snow Mountain and head straight to the Kingdom of the Evil God. However, the information about the Kingdom of the Evil God has always been inaccurate."
"The Empire sent so many detailed tasks to investigate, how could there be no accurate information?" Su Jing couldn't help but ask.
"Accurate news, after crossing the Six Dragon Snow Mountain, there may be at least 30,000 miles, up to 50,000 miles. After leaving the Six Dragon Snow Mountain, it is difficult to measure the distance with Taoist techniques or any Taoist instruments. You can only judge with the help of the stars in the sky. In this area, the living environment is extremely harsh, and those who can survive are all tribes that are even more brutal than the deserted people. Because you are not familiar with everything here, most of the initial detailed works have lost here."
"The empire has now found a way to reach the Kingdom of the Evil God?"
"Of course, no advance army wants to clean up all tribes here and force a passage. We only have a map, and we can mark mountains, rivers and rivers on the map, but no one knows the distribution of local tribes. We can only know the composition of these tribal warriors and wizards and the general way of fighting."
"Why don't you send out the floating battleship?" Su Jing asked. In this ancestral hall, only him and Yuan Linghong could ask questions.
"Floating battleships cannot fly in the air all the time, they need to stop and rest."
Xiaoyao Hou thought for a while and said, "None of us knows. The specific area of the Evil God Kingdom has been difficult to verify over the years. Some say that all the countries in the Evil God Kingdom are not as big as the Eastern Qin Empire, but there are also some sayings that the Evil God Kingdom is several times larger than the Eastern Qin Empire, but the population is not as large as that of the Eastern Qin Empire. We have also sent strong people from the Golden Pill realm to inquire, but those above the Golden Pill will never come back after going."
Su Jing understood a little, and Xiaoyao Hou said again: "If you want to find out all this carefully, you don't know when it will take to wait. The believers of the evil gods can travel through the tens of thousands of miles and go to the northern wasteland to preach missions. If this continues, it is equivalent to letting them grow. Floating warships are not omnipotent, and they cannot leave the empire easily."
Everyone suddenly felt a little heavier in their hearts. Originally, everyone thought that it would be a sure thing for the Eastern Qin Empire to destroy the Kingdom of Evil Gods. After they went there, they would be the same as leading military achievements.
When Su Jing was speaking, the egg shell in his Qihai Dantian had been completely reorganized and turned into eight fragments. Each fragment had a complex rune. These eight fragments still maintained the shape of the eggs and surrounded the true qi of the dragon and snake. The true qi of the dragon and snake inside was crazy to absorb the power of the ancestor spirit and strengthen itself.
At this time, Su Jing was already dead and was not afraid of boiling water. Anyway, Xiaoyao Hou said that everyone has the opportunity to absorb the ancestral spirit. He has only absorbed eight of them, so he is not going to catch all the tablets above.
"Everyone has an hour." Xiaoyao Hou no longer talks about the affairs of the Kingdom of the Evil God. Some things are still top secret now. Too much words will lead to mistakes. No matter how reliable the people in this ancestral hall are, they will inevitably let them go.
Su Mu looked at Su Jing and saw that Su Jing suddenly closed her eyes, as if she was experiencing something. She was not easy to speak, but she felt a little regretful. Two ancestral spirits had already been thrown into her body. She was half human and half demon, and her body was strong. She could accommodate two ancestral spirits during the foundation-building stage and slowly digest and absorb them.
Although the ancestor spirit was peaceful, the two of them were already the limit for her and could no longer help Su Jing.
The ancestral hall became silent again, and everyone was trying their best to absorb the power of ancestors' vows. One hour was not short, but although there was a spiritual pool in the Marquis' Mansion, they had to wait in line on weekdays. The power of ancestors' vows was open to supply. Only Su Jing calmed down and experienced the changes in the true qi of the dragon and snake.
It turned out that Su Jing thought that the egg shell was trapping the dragon and snake true qi. Now he realized that the dragon and snake true qi absorbed the egg shell and protected itself, so as not to do too much unnecessary loss. Now that he had absorbed enough ancestors' wishes, the dragon and snake true qi began to actively transform the rune prohibition on the egg shell.
The eight rune bans were still insufficient, and they began to absorb the ancestral spirits again, and slowly changed under the power of the dragon and snake true qi. One after another, the ancestral spirits were refined into the rune, and the rune also changed from a flat state to a three-dimensional rune that Su Jing had never seen before. Each rune can be seen from different angles and formed different ban powers.
Before and after, Su Jing absorbed a total of forty-eight ancestral spirits, and the runes on the egg shell stopped absorbing. Su Jing's true dragon and snake qi began to concentrate on transforming the ancestor's wishes.
