Free Web NovelChapter 1812: Chapter 492: This Deep Sea Strange Is So Powerful (5k)
Yu Ziqing left the Big Island, the Black Ship High Priest, yet pondered how to handle this matter well.
He actually didn’t have much desire for that crystal anymore, because they now had fulfilled the long-cherished wishes of the Black Ship Saints of the past generations.
The Black Ship Saints would no longer walk down a fated tragic path.
Even though the Black Ship High Priest knew that the crystal surely had more than just divination power.
But what Yu Ziqing said was true, it indeed didn’t have much utility anymore.
Moreover, the red veil they worshipped was no longer sufficient to elevate them to the Tenth Tier, which was also true.
The poor red veil was exceedingly busy.
It had to lend power to the Black Ship Saints without interest or principal and serve as a conduit for blessing, maintaining the Jinlan Mountain Protection Array, yet dared not be anxious.
The path the Black Ship Saints tread, aiming to surpass the limit of the Ninth Tier, has in truth the most ideal target being the Sacrificial God.
Unfortunately, the Sacrificial God had given up, and objective conditions were no longer enough to follow the old ways.
Finding a Big Strange in the deep sea and making attempts was indeed the best approach.
Because it was the tattoos they bore that gave them the chance to try and learn from mistakes.
The Black Ship High Priest didn’t rush to set out, he stayed on the Black Ship, quietly Concentrating, and cultivated in seclusion for more than a month before leaving the room to gather all the Black Ship Saints.
The Black Ship High Priest, solemn in expression and firm in gaze, surveyed the room and said.
"It is time for us to take the next step; as the Tenth Tier path opens, we must try to see if we can forge a new path."
"Next, we shall go to the deep sea and make our attempt."
"Even if we fail, we ought to be able to try other methods."
The Black Ship High Priest explained his plan, which was to change the object of worship, albeit of a different nature than before.
This matter, naturally, would require all the Black Ship Saints to know of and participate in.
No one objected, it was merely an attempt, and they wouldn’t become an Evil, so there was nothing to fear.
Thus, it was decided what the Black Ship Saints would do next.
This matter had nothing to do with Yu Ziqing.
Even that crystal ball at most was merely a bargaining chip in their quest for a new object of worship.
The Black Ship Saints set sail away from the Southern Sea, heading straight for the deep sea.
They were unaware that the Deep Sea Strange had already been mostly scooped up by someone diving in.
The Big Strange had been netted completely, leaving only small fish here and there, and Yu Ziqing was really too lazy to continue chasing those small fish hidden in the chaotic deep sea, so he left them.
Recently, the East Sea had settled a bit, but no one imagined that the strange occurrences in the deep sea were almost completely eradicated.
The Ancient Sea God would not speak of it, nor would Yu Ziqing, who had brewed a potent wine from those creatures.
The affair happening beneath the waves was beyond the sight of outsiders.
And the Black Ship Saints’ task could not let them know prematurely, or else it might lose its purpose.
Yu Ziqing did not focus too much on the aftermath, lacking confidence in it and not expecting significant results, purely due to lacking faith in his counterfeit crystal ball.
He returned to Dadui, where Zhang sent several people to assist him in understanding the entire process of the ceremony.
From clothing to the Sacrificial Text, and all the procedures, complexity abounded.
In many places related to the rites, Dadui faced severe gaps, with unclear details in many areas.
Yu Ziqing even visited An History Book, seeking out Mo Huitou for insights.
Hearing that there were to be an enthronement ceremony and a ritual celebration for reclaiming the homeland, Mo Huitou seriously taught for several days, helping Yu Ziqing grasp some lost details.
Upon returning to Dadui once more, Yu Ziqing found himself a tool of state, following the established plan as laid out.
He sent formal State Letters to the other Divine Dynasties, inviting those who ought to be invited, leaving it up to them to attend or not;
Not extending invitations would reflect poorly on Dadui’s etiquette.
Time passed quickly, drawing close to the enthronement ceremony.
Recently, the Riddler landed a big task; all the Riddlers were mobilized to ensure the ceremony went without issues.
The people of Dazhen arrived, and the delegation from Dali never left after coming, and the delegation from Daqian came and stayed upon hearing about the upcoming ceremony.
Many were curious about Emperor Dui, not just one or two people, eager to know who the powerful and mysterious Emperor Dui truly was.
Because a majority of courtiers within Dadui had never seen Emperor Dui in person.
By Dingmao Era, the rebellion of the Earth Deity had already inflicted heavy losses,
Additionally, the massacre Emperor Dui carried out during Dingmao left rivers of blood, decimating Dadui’s so-called great powers entirely.
The imperial bloodline was nearly eradicated.
Though as time passed, perhaps a few bearing a trace of royal blood might emerge, none had the qualifications to become involved.
Or perhaps they had long since become commoners,
and if aware at all, they could at most boast of their ancestry who once had grandeur and royal lineage.
In such circumstances, one who succeeded as Emperor Dui and brought Dadui to this point was mighty enough to kill the Old Emperor Qian.
No one could help but be curious about this.
