Chapter 195 The Night of the Ancestor Worship Festival
The Ancestor Worship Festival is an annual event of the Changlin people.
On this day, all the Changlin people in Nandou Forest will return to the space of the ancestral tree, put on the ancestral tree garland, and pray to the ancestral tree together under the leadership of the priest.
Celebrate the tribesmen who were born in this year and mourn the tribesmen who passed away in this year.
The night before the Ancestor Worship Festival, Su Wan'er was still kneeling in front of the mourning platform.
After such a long time, Shu Han still had not come down from the ancestral tree, which made her feel a little frustrated. Shu Han was her hope to save the clan, and she was unwilling to give up waiting just like that.
Priest Xigu returned to the ancestral tree space early, and the abbot arranged the celebrations in the ancestral tree space.
She came to Su Wan'er, looked at Su Wan'er's haggard face, and said distressedly: "Okay, I heard that it has been four months, and the ancestral tree will not let down your sincerity. Pack yourself up, and come with me to greet the tribe. Come back and do your duty as a saint."
Su Wan'er looked at Priest Xigu with tired eyes and asked doubtfully: "My lord, if the ancestral tree still doesn't appear, will our Changlin tribe have another ancestor worship festival?"
Priest Xiko touched her face and comforted her: "If this is really the last ancestor worship festival of our Changlin tribe, then we should have the grandness it deserves. This is our thousands of years of tradition. Believe it, believe it. The ancestral tree will not abandon our people.”
Su Wan'er took a deep breath and stood up unsteadily. After four months of kneeling, her knees were already very sore.
She endured the pain and followed Priest Xiko and led a group of guards out of the ancestral tree space.
Zhuo Chun saw all this from the corner and followed him as if nothing happened.
Zhuo Chun followed behind, thinking in his mind: "Every time during the Ancestor Worship Festival, the priests will change the place where they enter the ancestral tree space. As long as all the clan members gather at the entry point, I will secretly set off to the Dragon Fire Seal. By then, Chang All the ignorance of the Lin Clan will be burned cleanly in the Earth Dragon Fire! The Changlin Clan will be completely purified!"
Following Priest Xiko through the space barrier of the ancestral tree space, Su Wan'er came to a strange open space after a criss-crossing of time and space.
She cheered up and directed her tribe to hang the ancestral tree flower bells on the surrounding trees.
Under the moonlight, the trees around the open space were hung with ancestral tree flower bells that emitted white light. As the breeze blew by, the crisp sound of wind chimes rippled around the open space.
The sound of wind chimes is like a call home, calling the Changlin people wandering in the Nandou Forest.
As time passed, many Changlin tribesmen came out of the forest.
In the middle of the night, six hundred Changlin tribesmen gathered in the open space. Each of them looked solemn and gathered around the priest Xiko.
Finally, the other two priests who were escorting the tribe came over.
Priest Xiko looked at these tribesmen and asked, "Are these the only ones left?"
The other two priests replied: "It should be gone. This year's war has been extremely difficult, and many tribesmen have died."
When Su Wan'er saw that only these tribesmen were left, she couldn't help but feel strong sadness in her heart, and tears almost came out of her eyes.
She knew that if no miracle happened, this might really be the last ancestor worship festival of the Changlin tribe.
Xi Gu also sighed and said: "In that case, everyone packs up their appearance and prepares to enter the ancestral tree space and participate in the ancestor worship ceremony!"
Su Wan'er stood up and took the lead in singing the ancestral songs of the Changlin tribe. People from the Changlin tribe joined in one after another. The melodious songs echoed the priests' chants to open the ancestral tree space and circulated in the forest.
However, suddenly, a huge firelight fell from the sky, breaking this peaceful and peaceful scene.
Su Wan'er and many Changlin clan members saw despair in their eyes when they saw the huge fire.
"It's Earth Dragon Fire!"
"Enemy attack!"
The three priests immediately took action, and three rays of green light rushed upward, directly shattering the earth dragon fire that fell from the sky.
Sparks from the crushed Earth Dragon Fire splashed around, immediately burning through the surrounding forest and igniting a raging fire.
Zhuo Chun pretended to be panicked, but he was snickering in his heart.
coming! finally come!
Swish, brush, brush!
Countless fireballs flew from all directions, and in an instant, the sky around the Changlin tribe's teleportation clearing was filled with cultivators of Fire Cloud Moment.
No blind spots were left, and the Changlin tribe was surrounded.
In the instant of the fire cloud, five elders in the early stage of forming the core fell from the sky, blocking the Changlin clan's possibility of escaping in five directions.
Zhong Erle looked at the panicked Changlin people below and said with a sneer: "It's silly to hold an ancestor worship festival every year! Doesn't this give us Huo Yun an opportunity to catch them all in one fell swoop?"
"Are you going to surrender and be captured, or are you trying to hit an egg with an egg?"
Elder Yang Xu snorted coldly: "Old Zhong, and the other three elders, don't talk nonsense to these Changlin tribesmen. In the past few years of fighting, how many Changlin tribesmen have you seen who were helpless? Defeat them in one go and try to capture them alive!" Then open the passage to their ancestral tree space!"
Su Wan'er's face was ashen, and she thought desperately, is it possible that our Changlin tribe will not even have this ancestor worship festival?
Suddenly, Priest Xiko changed his solemn image and laughed wildly.
"a ha ha ha!"
She laughed so hard that not only monk Huo Yunxia was stunned, but also the Changlin clan members.
Zhong Erle frowned: "What are you laughing at, you silly bitch?"
"Why are you talking so much nonsense! Lao Zhong, follow me!"
Suddenly, Priest Xigu's eyes flashed with a fierce light, and she said coldly: "Do you think you can destroy our Changlin clan by bribing and planting a few beasts!" She stomped her feet, and in an instant, the green array pattern spread rapidly from the bottom of her feet, and every member of the Changlin clan was placed in this array.
As soon as these words came out, Zhuo Chun was frightened.
Su Wan'er looked at her mother in surprise.
In the green array pattern, every member of the Changlin clan was indistinguishable from each other, and their magic power was interconnected.
"You want to catch us all in one fell swoop, and why don't we in the Changlin clan want to? Tonight, all the Huoyun Momentary monks will stay here and become tributes for the ancestor worship festival!"
"Changlin clan members! Start the array and kill the enemy!"
With the loud shout of Priest Xigu, all the Changlin clan members responded and poured all their magic power into the connected green array.
Suddenly, countless vigorous green vines broke out of the ground, turning this world into a vast tree world at a very fast speed. Hundreds of Huoyun Shanna monks were caught off guard and were tied up tightly by these vines with small flowers.
"Ahhhh!"
"This vine is absorbing my life force!"
The Huoyun Shanna monks could not resist and screamed one after another.
Seeing this, the five Huoyun Shanna elders hurriedly sacrificed the Earth Dragon Fire and their life magic weapons to quickly grow vines.
However, the formation that gathered the magic power of all the Changlin clan members was extremely powerful. No matter how they burned and cut the vines that surged up, they could not be faster than the speed of vine regeneration.
The ordinary monks were subdued almost instantly, and only the Jindan elders could still rely on the Earth Dragon Fire to fight hard.
At this time, the second priest Changfeng in the formation stood up. He came to Xigu and smiled: "Sister Xigu, I will go first. Life will never end, and Changlin will never be destroyed!"
The Xigu priest looked at him solemnly and responded: "Life will never end! Changlin will never be destroyed!"
Suddenly, the fire of life burned on his body.
