Heretic Doctor Zihou - v6 Chapter 13
The eager knock on the door made Zihou whose mind was already messed up, breathing slightly. She didn’t get up, just asked in the direction of the door, “Who?”
“Master Ziyun, the city lord wants you to go to the watch altar!” A respectful voice came from outside.
Watch the altar?
For some reason, Zihou immediately thought of the large altar surrounded by twelve small altars in the central square of Sky City. She was faintly certain that it was most likely the watch altar.
Why did Xuanyuan Zifeng ask her to go there? Zihou thought suspiciously. However, she did not delay. From the tone of the messenger, she could feel that things seemed important.
Led by the messenger, Zihou soon came to the watch altar. As she thought, the watch altar was the thirteen black altars.
Zihou glanced across his eyes. A group of people were already onlookers in the empty square around the watch altar, and the number of people increased over time. Everyone was talking in low voices, and countless voices were intertwined and messed up.
Zihou did not hear what they were talking about. She only heard a few words: Son of God, Man of Heaven, Wind and Snow Terminator…
Although I don’t understand what these people are talking about, from the expectation and joy in their faces and eyes, Zihou seems to faintly guess the purpose of Xuanyuan Zifeng’s letting her come.
Xuanyuan Zifeng and the three sages stood beside the largest altar on the side of the watch altar. Qin Shuang was also there, standing behind Xuanyuan Zifeng. His mood at the moment seemed to be similar to that of others, but he was relatively restrained.
The moment Xuanyuan Zifeng saw Zihou, his eyebrows wrinkled slightly, and there was a touch of complexity across his eyes. The expression on his face was condensed, not as relaxed and casual as before in the study.
“I don’t know why the city lord asked me to come over?” Zihou walked towards Xuanyuan Zifeng, and asked when it was near.
Xuanyuan Zifeng only watched Zihou but did not speak. Several venerables also watched Zihou, and no one spoke.
“Ziyun, don’t be nervous, this is a good thing!” Qin Shuang smiled and comforted Zihou.
Zihou raised his eyebrows almost invisible. Judging from Xuanyuan Zifeng’s reaction, Zihou does not believe that what is about to happen is entirely a good thing. She guessed that there might be some discrepancies between Qin Shuang and other Sky City people and Xuanyuan Zifeng and several venerable cognitions on this matter.
Judging from the position of Xuanyuan Zifeng and several venerables in Sky City, they clearly have more information than Qin Shuang, a young descendant and simple citizen!
Qin Shuang went on to say, “You may not know that at the beginning, there were also sun, moon and stars here. Winter is not the only season. Day and night alternate. Everything is the same as the ancient gods. It’s just that. That situation is almost a flash in the pan. In the endless years that follow, it will be the scene you see now. However, we people in Sky City have firmly believed for generations that wind and snow will not exist in this world forever, sun, moon and stars. It will finally come, and the seasons of reincarnation will replace the wind and snow in winter. And the one who can change the status quo and break the curse is the son of God of our Sky City, the terminator of the wind and snow…”
“Ziyun, you are very likely our wind and snow terminator!” Qin Shuang’s tone was excited.
From small to large, this kind of thinking has been deeply ingrained in his mind. However, even so, he sometimes feels that such an idea is really amazing and even absurd. But he never doubted its authenticity. Because all the people around him and all his ancestors believed in and persisted just like him!
“Son of God…Ziyun!”
“End the wind and snow here, we long for the legendary spring!”
“Stars and sun and moon, I can’t wait to see what they look like!”
…
After Qin Shuang’s words, the surrounding exuberantly shouted one after another. The anticipation and excitement that flowed on everyone’s face and eyes rose to a peak at this moment.
Regarding Qin Shuang’s words and the reactions of the surrounding people, Zihou did not feel strange. Yes, maybe such a thing in the era of the end of the law that pays attention to science in China, there is no doubt that it will be regarded as fanatical pagan behavior, or even mental illness. However, in this magical world, everything is so taken for granted.
However, the only thing that makes Zihou difficult to understand is why she is the so-called man of heaven?
Xuanyuan Zifeng’s expression remained calm, without saying a word. His deep eyes did not reveal the slightest emotion, so that no one knew what he was thinking.
Zihou glances over Xuanyuan Zifeng’s face inadvertently. From his reaction Zihou, it can be concluded that Qin Shuang’s words are not problematic. She might really be able to end the wind and snow here, and she is the ‘child of God’ they have been waiting for. However, in addition to this identity, this matter or identity seems to have a deeper meaning…
She didn’t think Xuanyuan Zifeng would tell her the secret truth at this time, so she asked Qin Shuang, “What am I going to do?”
Qin Shuang squeezed his fists with excitement, and said, “It’s very simple…you just need to sit on the altar, drip blood on the altar, and then input the power of the soul into the altar!”
Zihou nodded. This is pretty routine!
However, she did not immediately go up to the altar. She was waiting for Xuanyuan Zifeng’s words.
Xuanyuan Zifeng’s heart was tangled. On the one hand, he wants Zihou to go up to the altar; on the other hand, he does not want Zihou to go up to the altar.
Yes. As Zihou thought, things are not as simple as Qin Shuang said. If Zihou is the real man with the ability to end the wind and snow, then at the same time, she also has another identity…and this identity is also Xuanyuan Zifeng’s not wanting Zihou to go up The main reason for the altar. This identity involves too much, and the responsibilities it shoulders are immense. The challenges faced are unprecedented. If you are not careful, you will be forever. He likes this boy, but he does not want him to take this risk! But then again, whether it’s him, several other venerables, or even those ancestors who have fallen for hundreds of millions of years, isn’t this one thing waiting for?
“Zifeng, we have been waiting for too long, we should seize the opportunity in front of us!”
“You have to think about your family! If you miss this time, I don’t know how long to wait!”
“Zifeng, everything has its own destiny. Whether it is a blessing or a curse, who really knows before the end?”
The three Venerables spoke one after another.
Xuanyuan Zifeng nodded and closed his eyes reluctantly. After a moment, he took a deep breath, as if he had made a big decision. However, he still asked for the opinion of Zihou, “Shuang’er is right…you, would you?”
Zihou didn’t miss the tangle of Xuanyuan Zifeng’s eyes. She didn’t know what Xuanyuan Zifeng’s entanglement represented, but she could feel the kindness from him.
Zihou nodded, “I will try.”
Zihou turned and looked at the altar in front of me. The large and small black altars rushed forward with a simple and heavy atmosphere. The ancient and mysterious lines spread on the altar, drawing out the infinite mystery of the avenue’s fortune one by one.
Zihou took a deep breath. She could see that Xuanyuan Zifeng was very entangled in whether she could go to the altar. She didn’t know what it meant if she was really the “Snow Terminator” in Qin Shuang’s mouth. However, what made her happy was that Xuanyuan Zifeng cared and loved her extraordinarily before she knew her identity. This touched her very much. At the same time, she was fortunate to have such a father in her heart.
When Zihou abandoned distractions and focused on the watch altar again, she suddenly faintly discovered that the aura possessed by this altar seemed somewhat similar to the seven ancient treasures. This discovery made Zihou a little calmer.
“No matter what this means, no matter what new identity I will have, this will not have any effect on me!” Zihou secretly said in my heart. Yes, whether it’s a ‘son of God’ or a stranger identity, so what? She is still her, and her life in Zihou has never been restricted because of a certain identity. She will always do what she wants!
When Zihou stepped onto the altar, the surrounding area was already full of people. However, this kind of overcrowded occasion, strange silence. No one speaks or even breathes, they try to slow down and relax…
At this moment, it is sacred to all the creatures in the Sky City and even the Wind and Snow Region.
Zihou leaned back and sat cross-legged at the center of the altar. According to Qin Shuang’s words, Zihou cut his palms and allowed scarlet blood to drip onto the black altar.
The blood flowed along the groove on the altar, eventually forming a blood-red ring that encircled Zihou. Zihou retracted his hand, and then condensed a soul power into the altar.
At the moment when Zihou was injected with the power of the soul, bursts of scarlet light radiated from the circular groove where the blood of Zihou was flowing on the altar, spreading towards the surroundings. One after another, like a wave. At the same time, the runes engraved on the altar also flashed red light one after another!
This scene made many people’s eyes bright. Although there are many people who have tried in history, some can make the altar shine like this, but when they saw Zihou do it, they couldn’t help but jump for joy. After all, the first step was successful, which is at least a good sign!
Soon, on the largest altar in the center, all the runes gleamed with blood red light!
Hum~
There was a humming sound, and the thirteen altars immediately trembled. When people didn’t have any mental preparations, on the largest altar in the center, a ray of light shot towards the endless sky, and soon disappeared at the end of the boundless sky. The scene from just now remained in everyone’s eyes, but before they could react, the sky was full of light, and the twelve sky lights appeared in different colors and fell towards the twelve small altars surrounding the high altar.
In this way, on the surrounding small altar, twelve pillars of light are connected to the sky at one end, and one to the land of Sky City!
Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, blue, purple, silver, gold, gray, black, white. Twelve colors, arranged in a regular pattern, form a circle, surrounding the Zihou sitting cross-legged on the high altar.
“Oh my God, what’s the situation?!”
“Is it a miracle? A miracle has come!”
“Son of God! God!”
…
Such a scene shocked all Sky City people. Whether it is around the altar, located in other corners of the city, or thousands of miles away from Sky City, everyone looks up at these twelve pillars of light, and their eyes are full of incredible!
In their impression, those who had tried to watch the altar in history took the farthest step only to activate the altar, and a beam of light rushed into the sky from the altar. However, there has been no more text since that step. It’s like a pebble thrown into the sea without any news!
So, what does this mean now?
Is the miracle finally coming?
The legendary wind and snow terminator!
Not only the ordinary people in Sky City, even Xuanyuan Zifeng and several venerables were shocked by the scene in front of them. They are naturally not as excited as others. They look calm, but the emotions in their eyes have already revealed their true feelings at the moment!
Twelve pieces of jade appeared around the body of Zihou located in the center of the twelve pillars of light. The color of the jade bi is exactly the same as the color of the beam of light. It’s just that the time when Jade Bi appeared was so short that it was difficult to capture, and it was shorter than a fleeting meteor.
However, if an experienced practitioner sees such a scene, he will definitely be able to recognize what those twelve pieces of jade bib represent!
The cornerstone of the soul’s profound meaning!
Twelve-story upright cornerstone!
Yes. Who would have thought that Zihou, which measured the ten-layered soul foundation stone in Xuyang City, actually reached the terrifying twelve layers of the true foundation stone? However, the ten-layer profound foundation stone has already caused the name Ziyun to become popular throughout the gods and ancients. If people know that there are still twelve layers of soul foundation stones in this world, wonder if they will go crazy?
The twelve beams of light soon disappeared. They disappeared so suddenly that people were caught off guard. As soon as the beam of light disappeared, the surrounding environment did not change at all. The spring that people dream of has not come, the sun, moon and stars have not appeared, and the long-awaited night is just as far away!
what!
Isn’t such a miracle enough?
Isn’t Master Ziyun their wind and snow terminator?
This kind of thought spreads in almost everyone’s mind, but this kind of thought has not had time to show on his face, and things seem to have a new turn!
Above the gloomy and gloomy sky because of the perennial snow, a little white light flashed away like a star with blinking eyes. However, after this white light flashed, everything was out of control like a butterfly effect: the place where the white light flashed just now and the azure blue color around it suddenly appeared in people’s eyes. Then, invisibly, a huge brush wiped away the dust on the originally blue curtain, revealing the original blue color…
The blue sky is occasionally dotted with a few faint white clouds, and the round of the sky above the sky is pouring soft light!
Everything looks new! As if the ugly curtain has been opened, what is displayed in front of people is a beautiful painting!
The warmth of the sun, the leisure of the white clouds, the vastness of the blue sky!
All this is beautiful and intoxicating!
Thousands of people in Sky City have been dumbfounded!
When the blue sky and white clouds are taken for granted, we may rarely notice their beauty. However, all of this is as incredible as a dream for the Sky City people who have looked up for hundreds of millions of years and can only see a gray area!
The miracle continues.
Not only the sky, the ice and snow on the ground melted quietly. Reveal the color of the soil. When the thick layer of snow and ice covering the ground melts, the green that represents vitality will have room for survival.
After the winter, the greenery that quietly recovered, who can say that it is not one of the most beautiful scenery in the world?
The cold front has not completely retreated to the end of the world. The high mountain peaks in the distance had already lost most of the snow and ice armor, only the snow on the top of the peak remained motionless. Even far away from Tianxia City, deep in the snowy region, there is still a bit of cold.
“Look, what is that?” Someone pointed to the western sky. On the horizon where the sky and the earth meet, I don’t know when the sun sinks to the west, like an egg yolk. The colorful scenery of the sunset glow is like dancing fairies in various poses.
Everyone was stunned by the sight. However, none of them can answer this question!
The Zihou on the altar is also in a trance at this moment.
She was used to this icy world. After it faded away from the snow and ice and returned to its usual posture, she was not used to it. She even thought deep down that ice and snow are the labels of this world.
Seeing those extremely excited people, Zihou shook his head and smiled. Well, the world can’t have only the severe cold of winter, the change of seasons is the most beautiful scenery. However, she will always remember that bitter cold torment, because it is a precious asset.
Zihou came down from the altar, but a heart was inexplicably heavy. Looking back at the horizon, only half of the sunset is left… Is it because the night is about to fall?
Zihou just turned around and fell into a generous embrace. If it is changed to normal days, Zihou will definitely subconsciously shoot. But when a familiar breath surrounded her, not only did she not have any thoughts of resistance, she developed a certain dependence…
On a cliff outside Sky City.
After the snow melted, the exposed rocks were still a little wet. A little green moss grew on the lower part of a huge rock extending outwards on the cliff. It took a long time for a drop of water to drip from the rock and drift into the endless abyss below.
Zihou stands on the edge of the cliff, looking out at the distant scenery. Her expression was calm and indifferent, and occasionally closed her eyes to feel the warm breeze after the winter.
Xuanyuan Zifeng stood beside her. Compared with the indifferent comfort of Zihou, Xuanyuan Zifeng can be said to be both irritable and tangled.
By the way, before Zihou appeared, our handsome and capable Feng Dad had never experienced this state of mind! Yes, he is always strategizing when dealing with anything. Even if it is as strong as he is inevitable, there are also negative moments such as sadness and confusion, but he can always restrain himself very well.
However, the current Xuanyuan Zifeng obviously no longer had his former demeanor.
He seems to be enjoying the distant scenery like Zihou, but he doesn’t even know what is in front of him. All his thoughts were put on the kid beside him.
Damn kid, at this time, are you still in the mood to enjoy the scenery?
Xuanyuan Zifeng thought of hating iron but not steel. He almost couldn’t help but slap Zihou on the butt!
However, he changed his mind and thought that he had taken him captive! Why does he get angry at others? Damn, why is he so impulsive? Also, why does he feel **** distressed when he thinks of his hard slap on the skin and tender flesh of the boy!
Xuanyuan Zifeng, you must be crazy!
Although Zihou does not squint, Xuanyuan Zifeng’s gnashing of teeth is not missed in Zihou. From an angle that Xuanyuan Zifeng couldn’t see, the corner of her lips couldn’t help but hooked.
“The city lord kidnapped me just to see the scenery, right?” Zihou broke the silence ‘kindly’.
Xuanyuan Zifeng’s face turned dark. Kidnapping? What a **** kidnapping! Xuanyuan Zifeng would not admit that his rude behavior was kidnapping just now!
Xuanyuan Zifeng restrained his emotions, his expression returned to his usual seriousness, “Don’t you want to ask me anything?”
Zihou smiled and shrugged, “If you want to tell me, you will tell me even if I don’t ask. If you don’t want to tell me, then if I ask, don’t I ask for nothing?”
Xuanyuan Zifeng twitched the corners of his lips and chuckled, “You kid!” As he said, he stretched out his palm and touched the top of Zihou.
Zihou is quite tall, but in front of Xuanyuan Zifeng’s tall, she looks petite. Feeling the affectionate attitude of my father, Zihou is unaccustomed to stiff body.
Feeling the stiffness of Zihou, Xuanyuan Zifeng retracted his hand in some embarrassment. He only thought it was because of his behavior that he was scared of Zihou. After all, there is no close relationship between them. While silently spitting on himself in his heart, he couldn’t help but think: How nice would his little queen be by his side! She must be as high as Ziyun now…
Xuanyuan Zifeng shook his head, a painful flash across his eyes, but was quickly hidden by him. His expression became serious again, and he looked at Zihou and said, “With your cleverness, you must have thought that the meaning of ‘Snow Terminator’ is not limited to this.”
Zihou nodded, “But I don’t know what it means.”
Xuanyuan Zifeng sighed, “Just ask what you want to know, as long as I know it, I will tell you!”
Zihou’s eyes lit up, thinking for a moment, and asking the first question, “What is the other identity of the’Snow Terminator’ or’Son of God’?”
Xuanyuan Zifeng cast his eyes on the distant vastness, and his low voice answered Zihou’s doubts, “It’s the one who destroys the gods!”
