"Sacrifice." When the emperor said these words, his gaze was directed at the powers of the Azure Mountain Kingdom.
Hearing this, the heads of the various sects, clans and forces all walked to the side of the altar in succession, taking out countless elemental stone from their respective storage elemental artifact, and placing them on the altar.
In a short while, these elemental stone were placed as high as a small mountain, they were dazzling and flickering, and could not be estimated accurately. Just by looking at them, one could already guess that there were hundreds of millions of them!
They all knew that in order for their sect to nurture them, they had paid a considerable price. These elemental stone s were used to compensate the Imperial Family for the amount of energy needed to open the teleportation formation to the Guluan City, and the other was used to "honor" the Imperial Family. After all, the Imperial Family controlled this ancient teleportation formation, and needed the Li Family's bloodline in order to open it.
Unless you don't want to send your disciples to the Guluan City anymore, then doing so will only end up killing yourself. In the fierce competition for Mortal Continent, other people will always improve, and if you fall behind, you will still receive a beating.
His expression was unnatural as he hatefully thought in his heart: The imperial family's Li family receives such a huge amount of wealth every fifty years. After obtaining this wealth, they use it to develop their military strength and nurture the Li family's disciples, thus, they can maintain the Li family's glory. If the imperial family's Li family didn't have these benefits from the opening of the Guluan City, they would have been pushed down from the stage a long time ago!
Every fifty years, his Guluan City would appear randomly in a certain place in the Azure Mountain Country. It was different every time, and would only appear when the time was up. Moreover, the Guluan City had a restriction that allowed one to attack and guard, so no one could enter from the outside. They could only enter through the imperial family's teleportation formation.
After all these years, there had been people who wanted to break free from the control of the imperial family. Some scheme opened a gap for people to enter the Guluan City from the outside, but most of the time, it failed and many people died, so no one dared to do so anymore.
This year, he was only in his fifties. Back then, when his Guluan City was activated, he was just a child who didn't know a damn thing, but today was the first time he had experienced the shocking power that was brought to him by such shocking wealth.
All mine! They are all from our imperial family! The emperor's expression was one of great joy. He was roaring in his heart as he hurriedly took out a large golden seal and walked forward.
Someone saw the scene and whispered: "That seal is the emperor's storage elemental artifact, and it is said that it is a high rank storage elemental artifact. In the entire Azure Mountain Country, there is only one such seal, and it can fit the entire Imperial City."
"Wow, such a large storage elemental artifact, there should be a lot of good things inside right?" Another person drooled.
"Who knows? Maybe only the previous generation of royal family ancestors and the Emperor know about it. "
"If someone steals that thing …"
"Impossible, it is said that the high rank elemental artifact are intelligent, and can only protect the blood they admit to. Even if the Emperor were to die, others would not be able to refine it even if they managed to obtain it, much less open the inner space. The High Rank elemental artifact will automatically recognize their master, the others can only look on helplessly. "
Just then, the emperor walked to the side of the altar with the golden seal. With a thought, he waved his hand and collected the hundreds of millions of elemental stone without a trace.
The people from the other sects could only be envious of them. The moment they saw the most terrifying number of elemental stone disappear, everyone's heart bled.
"Your Majesty, it's time to activate the Guluan City." Situ Kongming urged with an imbalance in his heart.
"That's right. Activate the Guluan City Teleportation Formation early, and get us to send our disciples there early." The leaders of the other forces urged one after another.
"Everyone, don't worry. We'll begin preparing now." The Emperor, having received so much wealth, was so happy that even the complaints of others sounded to him like the beauty of singing.
After that, he gave a meaningful glance to the guards beside him, all of them were elemental spirit Stage Level 8 and above, after they received the order, they left. After a while, they brought over eight men and women dressed in embroidered clothing, all of them looking to be in their fifties.
"How's the purity of your bloodline?" The Emperor asked indifferently.
The head guard hastily cupped his fists together and said, "Reporting to Your Majesty, these people have already passed the bloodline test. Their purity definitely meets the requirements to open the teleportation formation."
"Then that's good." The emperor nodded in satisfaction.
"Don't let us be the tribute! "No way!" A selected imperial family member with a thin and yellow face hurriedly screamed.
The emperor's face darkened, "What's going on?"
"Your Majesty, please forgive me. Perhaps this person's cultivation is a bit too high, and doesn't use enough pills." The guard leader was flustered as he hurriedly ran over and covered the man's mouth with his hand.
The man was frightened and quickly struggled, but he was quickly held down by the other guards. Afterwards, the leader of the guards took a bowl of the medicine, forcefully opened the man's mouth and poured it into his mouth.
"Cough, cough …" After the man drank the potion, he coughed continuously. However, he was no longer able to speak.
Seeing that, Wang Jin's eyes darkened, he knew that the eight chosen members of the royal family would not end up well, as for how the royal family picked people, there would definitely be many complex and unfathomable relationships, it was nothing more than the result of the battle for benefits and power. So what if you have power and influence? So what if you live more leisurely than others? How much can those appearance things help you? The only thing he could rely on was himself. The stronger he became, the stronger he would be able to escape the fate of the law of the jungle.
Guluan City, the place to become strong, even if it dies, they had to go! Wang Jin swore heavily.
"Get ready." The Emperor said to his trusted aides.
A group of brave warriors carried a box of prepared elemental stone s and carried them to the tall altar. Then, under the guidance of some officials, they placed these elemental stone s one by one into the Energy Tank s around the altar. This process was very long. It took him an hour to finish it.
"Reporting to Your Majesty, a hundred thousand elemental stone have been filled." The official in charge hurriedly said.
A hundred thousand elemental stone! Everyone was shocked when they heard that, just activating the teleportation circle required a huge consumption of elemental stone, and it wasn't something that a normal force could open.
The Emperor then raised his hand, signalling for the crowd to quiet down, and said with a smile: "Everyone, We have sent people to count: the number of forces and forces that are participating in this Guluan City Trial is about two hundred and thirty-six, and the total number of disciples that are participating, is a thousand two hundred and thirty-one. Every single force being sent to a different location is to prevent them from being sent to the same place. If we are in a place where we cannot control the outside forces of Guluan City, then there will be a conflict and it will not be good. "
"The tribute." Then the Emperor gave the order.
"Wuwuwu …" The eight men and women were terrified as they struggled desperately.
However, the guards who were escorting them all had unparalleled strength, and were now throwing them onto the altar one by one like carrying chickens. Soon after, the guards also jumped up, separating the eight of them and placing each of them on the altar in eight different directions.
"Grab the sabre!" The leader of the guards shouted from below.
Bang!
There were eight guards standing on the altar, each of them pulling out a shiny butcher knife.
"Kill!" The head guard waved his hand and gave the order.
Woosh, woosh, woosh, woosh …
Eight heads rolled onto the altar, and the blood from the royal bloodline dyed the eight positions of the altar red. Correspondingly, the entire altar was activated, and the places where each head landed represented eight locations of Guluan City.
The transmission array above the altar immediately lit up in a hexagonal diamond shape, shooting out a blood-red hexagonal hologram that shot into the sky. From afar, it looked like a giant cube connecting the vast world to the earth, like a pillar of red sky.
An ancient and solemn aura spread out from the teleportation formation, affecting everyone's mood. Everyone yearned for the Guluan City and Sacred Grounds, and explored the buildings that had existed since that distant era tens of thousands of years ago.
"I want to remind all of you young talents that are about to enter the Guluan City to train, and that you must return after three months. I believe that everyone has heard of this, that if you do not leave your Guluan City after three months, when your Guluan City disappears within the Azure Mountain Kingdom, you will never be able to return. There are also eight locations within the Guluan City, and every location has a teleportation formation that connects to this place. When the time comes, we will activate the teleportation formation here and send you all back. " The Emperor solemnly said.
"Next, we will transfer them one by one according to the contribution points." The first person to contribute is Situ Family. This time, nearly three million ordinary elemental stone have been offered to our imperial family. We invite the thirty young elites of the Situ Family to enter the altar to teleport. "
"Wow …" Cheers erupted from below the stage.
Three million elemental stone, the Situ Family can actually afford it? Of course, this was also because of their large number of people, but the Situ Family had put in a lot of hard work in order to obtain this teleportation ranking.
Situ Kong Ming narrowed his eyes and thought, in this group of idiots, there are many who have never visited the Guluan City. I don't know where the energy of heaven and earth is thicker, I don't know where there might be opportunities, and I don't know where the danger is. Our Situ Family has been passed down for a long time, and every senior who has been to the Guluan City have drawn a map after coming back alive. They have marked the locations of dangers that cannot be approached, and also indicated the locations of possible great fortuitous encounters.
Afterwards, Situ Kong Ming said to Situ Haohan, "Have you remembered what I told you yesterday?"
Situ Haohan nodded his head: "I will remember, I will lead the Situ Family clansmen and occupy those advantageous positions."
"Yes." Situ Kongming nodded his head, "You will lead the clan members to the place with the densest and densest origin energy in the world of Guluan City. Then, the disciples that are stuck in bottlenecks will first break through into cultivation. Before we find an opportunity, we should avoid fighting with others and not delay matters. "
"Understood, Patriarch." Everyone, follow me up! " Situ Haohan nodded and led the other twenty-nine young talents of the Situ Family up the high altar.
They entered the southwest together. With a flash of red light, the thirty Situ Family elites followed the red light screen and quickly rose into the air. Their figures quickly became smaller and smaller. Although the disciples of the Situ Family had received the warnings of their family seniors and were mentally prepared, all of them were still worried. The speed of their teleportation was too fast and their positions were too high!
When the emperor saw that the disciples of the Situ Family had finished transferring, he continued to announce, "The next force that will be sent will not be in the southwest. It will prevent any uncontrollable conflicts with the Situ Family. The second force to be teleported was Gold And Silver Church, who contributed two million and one hundred thousand elemental stone to our imperial family.
"Wow …" The crowd burst into an uproar again.
