Chapter 57 Trouble is Coming
"The big show is coming."
Yang Jian’s eyes fixed.
Only one person walked out, it was the leader of the northern barbarians, Mang.
No, it should be witch.
In Baishi City, Wu had already controlled Mang through magic to cooperate with Zishou's plan.
Yang Jian vaguely remembered that Zishou seemed to have promised him that he would provide him with a magic weapon to fight against the heavenly calamity.
This attracted his help.
Su Daji went to great lengths to disguise herself as Su Hu's daughter and infiltrate the coalition forces of the princes who were on an expedition to the northern barbarians.
Then, he took great pains, even risking his own life, to bring these 100,000 young and strong barbarians back to Chaoge as human sacrifices.
This barbarian leader was also invited by Yuan Futong to be presented to Emperor Yi as a token of his submission.
After spending so much effort, it's time to reveal the answer.
I don’t know what kind of drama Zishou had prepared that made him so confident that he could stir up trouble during the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven and seize the throne of the Shang Dynasty.
Yang Jian turned his head to look, and saw that Yuan Futong still had a smug look on his face.
It was his credit that solved Emperor Yi's troubles.
Obviously, he did not realize that the barbarians' surrender was a conspiracy, and he was still immersed in joy.
Yang Jian was looking forward to it. He wondered what expression Yuan Futong would have when he found out that he was the one who caused this scene after the show started.
In the arena, Mang bowed and stepped forward to meet Emperor Yi.
After getting permission, he crawled on the huge tortoise shell.
Observe the texture carefully.
He was shirtless at the moment.
Revealing the dense tattoos on his body.
If you look at it for too long, it feels like your soul will be sucked in.
Quite mysterious and weird.
When Emperor Yi sensed this strange phenomenon, he became more convinced.
In addition, he was a foreigner who surrendered and had no vested interests with many ministers in the court.
I think it should be more credible.
After a few breaths, Mang climbed up from the tortoise shell, clasped his hands together, bowed and said, "Reporting to the king, the tortoise shell divination results show that this sacrifice to the heavens will greatly please the emperor of heaven and the empress of earth."
"Oh? Where does Yue come from?"
Emperor Yi asked doubtfully.
Mang said calmly, "Your Majesty has swept through the Eastern Yi, annihilated the Western Slaves, cleared the Southern Wilds, and suppressed the Northern Barbarians. Your power has spread far and wide, and millions of human sacrifices have been made. Therefore, Huang Tian and Hou Tu are very pleased."
This result was exactly what the high priest of the Shang Dynasty had said, except that the barbarians sounded more flattering.
Emperor Yi was overjoyed when he heard this: "Okay, let's start offering sacrifices to the heavens!"
Obviously he had wronged the high priest of the Shang Dynasty.
But there was no change on his face, nor did he say anything to ask the Shang Dynasty's high priest to come back.
The king never jokes, and that’s roughly the case.
As Emperor Yi announced the start of the sacrifice to heaven.
A gong sounded suddenly.
The smell of blood in the air suddenly became strong.
Many people began to feel uneasy.
But they were chained together and could not move.
He could only allow the soldiers behind him to chop off his head one by one.
Blood gushed out, but did not spill on the ground.
Instead, it flowed abnormally upwards, gathered into a large ball in mid-air, and floated above the Nine Cauldrons.
Yang Jian looked jealous.
These human sacrifices alone represent the spirits of millions.
Not to mention the nine large bronze tripods in the center, which contain the essence accumulated by the Shang Dynasty over decades of wars.
Unfortunately, he could only watch and not move at this time.
Even the Demon Eye was shrinking at this moment and dared not come out, for fear that it would not be able to hold back and take a sip, which would cause the Emperor of Heaven and Earth to notice something unusual.
By then, Su Daji's charm will be unable to be concealed.
Suddenly, the barbarian leader standing next to Emperor Yi suddenly began to dance.
The tattoo on his body emitted an inexplicable glow, and the blood energy around him gathered towards him.
"King of Shang! Your death is approaching!"
The next moment, he stretched out his finger and pointed at Emperor Yi from afar.
A red light shot out from the fingertips and flew towards Emperor Yi.
Emperor Yi's face changed drastically and he stepped back.
He kept shouting, "Protect the emperor, protect the emperor!"
Wen Zhong reacted as soon as the red light appeared. He stretched out his hand and waved it. A golden whip flew towards the red light with a whistling sound, but it was not blocked. The red light seemed to be illusory and went straight through the golden whip.
The golden whip kept moving forward, and the blow was so powerful that it smashed the smiling Mang into a bloody mist.
The flying red light was like a maggot in the tarsal bone, drilling into Emperor Yi's body.
Emperor Yi suddenly fell to the ground and fell unconscious.
Wen Zhong was quick-witted and reached out to support Emperor Yi. The magic power in his hands continued to flow out, and he used the magic power to seal the strange red light that penetrated into Emperor Yi's body.
The next moment, his brows suddenly frowned, and he saw that Emperor Yi was aging rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The originally smooth skin began to become wrinkled, dark spots appeared on the face, and the hair became gray and sparse.
Just like an octogenarian.
Wen Zhong did not dare to be negligent and stretched out his hand, and a jade bottle appeared in his palm.
When the jade bottle was opened, a breath of vitality emanated from the mouth of the bottle in an instant.
Everyone felt like they were a few years younger in an instant.
Looking down, I saw that on the originally shiny stone slabs, green grasses were struggling to grow, and in the blink of an eye, they turned into a lush green.
As Wen Zhong put the pill into Emperor Yi's mouth, Emperor Yi's aging speed stopped, but he still looked old.
aside.
Although Mang is dead.
But the abnormalities did not stop.
Just when Wen Zhong was busy taking care of Emperor Yi.
The place that was smashed into a bloody mist was flashing with a little green light.
Yang Jian looked closely and realized that it was the tattooed skin on Mang's body.
Even though its body was shattered and no intact bones could be found, its skin was preserved intact.
The next moment, blood mist poured into the tattoo.
The piece of human skin rose into the air and flew towards the center of the venue.
"Po An Yi~"
A strange vibration resounded all around, like the sound of a bell.
Yang Jian looked carefully and realized that it was not the sound of a bell, but a song.
His eyes turned to the northwest corner, where the barbarians' 100,000 sacrifices were located.
I saw those 100,000 people chanting in a mysterious tone, and a desolate and vast atmosphere was born.
"what is this?"
Yang Jian turned his head and looked at Su Daji.
Su Daji shook her head slowly, indicating that she didn't know either. She only knew that the barbarian witch promised that Chaoge would be in chaos.
As for how to do it specifically, that is something that Zishou should discuss with him.
She was not aware of the entire plot.
"Be bold!"
After Wen Zhong fed the pill to Emperor Yi, he saw the changes in the situation and seemed to understand something, and suddenly became furious.
The aura of his body surged, and under the shock of his magic power, everyone on the platform was pressed to the ground.
They could only lie down, or they would be crushed into a ball of meat paste by the powerful magic power if they stood up.
At this moment, only Yang Jian could still stand in the battle relying on his strong body.
But it was also extremely uncomfortable, as if I was 30,000 meters in the sea, with tremendous pressure attacking every part of my body.
Wen Zhong stretched out his hands and two golden whips appeared in his hands.
The next second, he appeared above the 100,000 barbarian captives, infused the golden whip in his hand with magic power, and smashed it down heavily.
In an instant, the place where the barbarians were standing turned into a sea of blood.
The flat ground turned into a deep pit, in which flowed a mixture of flesh and bones.
But the chanting did not disappear.
Skin covered with green tattoos rose from the sea of blood and condensed into a huge piece of human skin with interconnected lines and emitting a faint green light.
Waves of chanting began to emanate from the tattoo.
“It’s indeed this formation!”
Wen Zhong frowned, his hair and beard flew, and his black robe made a clanging sound due to the influence of his magic power.
He stretched out his right hand, and the golden whip in his hand disappeared, replaced by a jade ruyi.
That is the magic weapon of the Golden Spirit Mother, the Dragon-Tiger Jade Ruyi.
At this moment, this magic weapon in Wen Zhong's hands is completely different.
Wen Zhong just threw it into the air.
Then it got dark.
The huge jade ruyi blocks out the sky and the sun.
As Yu Ruyi continued to rise into the air, it suddenly rushed down.
As the urine and feces rushed down, they began to shrink back until they occupied half of the square.
Hit the tattoo formed on human skin.
"Rumble"
At this time, the slaughter of human sacrifices for heaven sacrifice had just begun.
Countless soldiers were still enjoying killing the slaves.
The next second, Master Wen was seen standing in the sky.
Then it got dark.
As the dragon-tiger jade ruyi fell, half of the human sacrifices and soldiers in the square were squeezed together.
It turned into blood, flesh and mud, and was squeezed into the big hole created by Yu Ruyi.
"receive!"
Wen Zhong waved his hand casually, and the jade ruyi shrank and flew back into his palm.
The next second, his expression changed drastically.
The human skin disappeared.
But the blue lines on the human skin are still there.
At this time, it was connected on the ground, covering the entire square.
This is a sacrificial array.
The function of this magic circle at this time.
It's like a sacrifice for all the living beings here.
To summon some terrifying ancient demon.
"It shouldn't be!"
Wen Zhong frowned and thought. He had some understanding of this formation, and it shouldn't be so strange that it could not be broken.
He suddenly remembered that when he defeated the barbarian leader before, he also had a blue tattoo on his body, which was also very strange.
But it is not here.
Could it be that!
He suddenly turned around, his eyes wide open, looking towards the center of the square.
That was the Shang Dynasty's sacred artifact for offering sacrifices to heaven, the Nine Bronze Cauldrons.
A huge red sphere was suspended above, made up of the blood of human sacrifices.
The third eye between his eyebrows suddenly saw that the blue light appeared and disappeared in the red blood ball, wandering in it. It was the tattoo pattern on Mang's body before.
Obviously, it is the core of the formation. It is because of its hiding ability that Wen Zhong has been unable to completely break this strange formation.
Wen Zhong stretched out his left index and middle finger, calling them sword fingers, and pointed them out diagonally.
The sky and the earth suddenly darkened, and a bright sword light shot out from between the fingers.
The sword light was golden, and when it flew out, the world became silent, and everyone could only see the golden sword light moving in the field.
The Gengjin sword evil on the sword body turned into invisible sharp sword energy, cutting everything around it. Traces appeared on the sea of blood, which could not be healed for a long time.
The sea of blood was like water, and at this moment it was affected by the sword energy and could not calm down. This was caused by the invisible impact of the Gengjin sword evil on everything around it.
This is another magic weapon bestowed by the Golden Spirit Mother, the Flying Golden Sword, a top-grade spiritual treasure.
However, this was not the attack of the Flying Golden Sword. If that were the case, how could it become the main attacking magic weapon of the Golden Spirit Mother.
He would not give it to Wen Zhong and ask him to protect Yang Jian.
Wen Zhong stepped into the air and retracted his left arm. With the infusion of a huge amount of magic power, the Flying Golden Sword suddenly accelerated and burst out with a dazzling golden light.
Flying towards the blood ball in the air, the target is the strange blue skin inside it.
Before the sword energy arrived, the blood ball had been broken up by the invisible Gengjin evil spirit, revealing the strange blue tattooed skin inside, which looked like a human shape.
Under the strong evil spirit of Gengjin, the human skin was torn into pieces, vaguely resembling a weird smiling face, laughing wantonly.
