Chapter 1375: The ancient altar, the stars!
Translator: 549690339
“Earth, you have too many secrets ...”
At this point, he mumbled to himself. At this moment, he could not help but wonder if Chang ‘e flying to the moon, Hou Yi shooting the sun, and the various myths in Chinese history really existed.
The group continued to move forward because there was a vast aura and boundless celestial bodies shining over.
An hour later, everyone stopped and stared ahead in a daze. There was a magnificent ancient altar.
The altar was extremely large. From a distance, it looked like a huge city that had been specially built on Mars.
The altar was engraved with ancient patterns and words, which looked like birds, bugs, and fish, but contained profound bitterness.
At that moment, everyone could not help but hear a strange sound. The sound was extremely empty and distant, as if it had crossed time and space.
“This is the sound of the ancient people worshiping the heavens and earth ...”
Shi qianhan’s heart trembled as he mumbled,””I’ve read in an ancient book that the ancient people revered nature and gods. Therefore, they often held sacrificial ceremonies and read the scriptures of the sacrificial ceremony ...”
“Not bad!”
Ye chen also nodded.”The society before the Zhou Dynasty was centered around the gods. They paid attention to the power of the monarch. For example, the emperors of the Shang Dynasty claimed to be the descendants of the gods.”
At this point, he couldn’t help but pause for a moment before continuing,”This is also the reason why deification ceremony wanted to recruit all kinds of grass-headed gods to surrender. It was to separate the era where humans and gods ruled by dividing the boundaries with the end of the Shang Dynasty ...”
After saying that, he took the lead and walked forward.
The closer they got to the altar, the more intense the sounds of the ancestors ‘worship became. Fortunately, it was not aggressive, as if it was just a replay of an ancient memory.
After crossing the desolate stone steps, everyone’s eyes were fixed on the altar in the distance. It was unknown what material the altar was made of, but it was as smooth as the surface of a Lake.
There were many offerings on top of it. There were interstellar beasts that looked like kui cows, spiritual wine that reeked of alcohol, and even human heads. The eyes of the human heads were wide open as if they had died with grievances. Their facial features were different from those of Earthlings ...
“Why are there offerings here?”
Everyone stopped in their tracks and looked at the many offerings on the table. Their eyes were filled with wariness.
Su Yuhan couldn’t bear to look at it.
“And it’s with a human head as a sacrifice!”
Ye Chen’s gaze fell on the head and he frowned.””These people should be from the outer realms, and they seem to have died not long ago. However, who killed them and placed their heads here as an offering?”
“Could it be Yi?”
A thought suddenly flashed through his mind.
In the purple sky Realm, after he had joined forces with Phoenix and ye Wushuang to destroy the celestial Palace, Phoenix had left. Before he left, he had not said a word to ye chen. He was extremely reclusive.
At this moment, the altar that looked like a lake was full of strange phenomena. It was bright and dazzling. There were many stars the size of millstones floating in the sky above the altar.
As far as the eye could see, there were at least a hundred of them. These celestial bodies were extremely life-like, with different colors and life-like existences. Although they were arranged in a disorderly manner, they were moving in their own unique orbits.
Although these stars were small, each of them faintly emitted a Great Terror. Like radioactive elements, they constantly overflowed with a monstrous aura to the outside world.
At that moment, ye Chen’s expression finally changed.””This is a universe star map?”
“Looks like it’s indeed a universe map ...”
Old ancestor yellow spring nodded heavily and his eyes wandered over the stars.”However, it doesn’t seem complete. There are only 108 celestial bodies ...”
At this point, he seemed to have thought of something, and his expression changed.””No, fellow Daoist ye, these are the strongest 108 celestial bodies in the universe!”
“The top hundred stars of the universe?”
Ye Chen’s eyes flashed with lightning, piercing the sky.”This is one of the top 100 stars in the universe. I didn’t think that the ancient people of Earth had already begun to understand the stars and worlds 10000 years ago.”
“Pfft!”
At this moment, the soul formation stage cultivators behind him all spat out a mouthful of blood. Their faces were extremely pale, and they felt a sharp pain in their hearts.
“Don’t try to probe the secrets of each star ...”
“Each of these celestial bodies is stronger than earth, and their laws are even more astonishing. If you explore them rashly, you’ll easily alert the Almighty heaven-illuminating powers in these celestial bodies ...” Ye chen hurriedly shouted.
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone couldn’t help but hurriedly withdraw their divine senses. They were as afraid as a Tiger, and when they looked at the stars again, their gazes were filled with endless horror.
They had thought that they were soul formation stage cultivators who could roam the starry sky, but they had been injured by a star map.
As beiming temple master was shocked, he could not help but look at ye chen.”Fellow Daoist ye, what are the top hundred stars? What is the heaven-illuminating spell?”
“I’ll explain it to you,”
Without waiting for ye chen to speak, old ancestor yellow spring said,”In the universe, there are many celestial worlds similar to earth. The 100 stars on this star chart are the most powerful existences in the heavens.”
“How many stars are there in the universe?” Someone said.
“Who knows?”
“But I guess there are at least 100000 ...” Old ancestor yellow spring chuckled.
Deathly silence. The scene suddenly fell into an endless deathly silence.
Shi qianhan, su Yuhan, and the others were silent. Patriarch green spirit was petrified and his heart was in turmoil.
The 100,000 celestial bodies were one thing, but the 100 celestial bodies in the star map in front of him were the strongest among them.
Su Yuhan let out a heavy breath and asked,””Then how are these stars arranged?”
“The power of the strong!”
Ye chen explained patiently,”in every star, there will be countless mighty people who will break through to a higher realm over thousands of years. These people also carry the fate of the star they are in. Their energy will shine toward the stars outside the mother star. Their ranking will be determined by the length of the shine.“
He was afraid that su Yuhan and the others didn’t understand, so he made an analogy and said,””For example, countless companies are producing light bulbs, but the brightness and power consumption of each company’s light bulb are different. Some light bulbs not only save energy, but they can also light further in the same dark environment ...”
After his analogy, everyone finally understood.
“Fellow Daoist ye’s analogy is quite vivid.”
“The cloud mortal world I’m in has many small planets, and each planet has billions of lives. They’re divided into rank 1 to rank 9 cultivation planets. The highest cultivation level on rank 1 cultivation planets is the foundation establishment realm, and on Rank 2 cultivation planets is the Golden core realm, so on and so forth ...” Old ancestor yellow spring smiled.
He slowly said,”when a cultivator on a rank 1 cultivation planet reaches the Golden core stage, the planet they live on will be promoted to a Rank 2 cultivation planet. Similarly, if a cultivator on a Rank 2 cultivation planet reaches the nascent Soul Stage, the planet they live on will be promoted to a rank 3 cultivation planet ...”
