Chapter 927 - 927 A Grand Show! (4)
927 A Grand Show! (4)
He was the creator of this show, but he was also a character in the play, integrating himself into it and using his life to perform a dance.
All of this, while eerie, also gives a sense of extreme devotion.
This was because this was the Yin Yang Flower Sect’s sacrificial dance!
The sacrificial dance wasn’t a dance for the people of the shrine but a dance for the G.o.d to please them.
It existed in many regions with G.o.ds, and its origin was due to the tendency of the G.o.ds to prefer deep slumber, like the Crimson G.o.ddess.
However, in the past, the Crimson G.o.ddess could wake up at any time from her slumber. In her current state, however, it was very difficult for her to wake up soon.
No matter what, when a G.o.d was in a deep slumber, they released the power of dreams, and their dreams were the source of the dance’s ability. They would make use of the G.o.d’s dream to envelop an area.
In this area, everything was influenced, whether it was fate or life, all living beings had their thoughts wiped blank. The ritual dancer would weave their own version according to their thoughts, creating a colorful dream.
The G.o.d could not perceive it while in slumber, only upon awakening would the dreams emerge, allowing them to reminisce.
If they liked it, they would bless it.
This was the reason why there were so many branch sects of the Yin Yang Flower Sect.
In every branch sect, there was a ritual dancer. According to their cultivation and past blessings, the abilities and range they could display were also different.
As the creator of the G.o.d’s dream in this area of the Unending Mountain Range, this old man felt that the G.o.d should like his sacrificial dance this time.
“Especially those few outsiders, causing this dream…”
“It’s even more interesting.”
The old man sat down cross-legged again. His eyes were filled with deep intentions as he spoke hoa.r.s.ely.
The same four words were said softly from the captain’s mouth.
The smile on his face was also filled with deep meaning, but all of this was fleeting. He stretched his back and swept his beautiful eyes across the surroundings, landing on a guard beside him.
That guard was following without any expressions. He was none other than Xu Qing in disguise.
Xu Qing’s mind was a little chaotic. He felt that there was something wrong with everything. Everything progressing too smoothly was only one aspect.
For example, at this moment, he looked at a bird in the sky.
The bird had already stopped in mid-air for a few breaths, as though it was stuck there.
The dizzy feeling resurfaced in front of Xu Qing’s eyes at that moment, and the sense of overlap gradually weakened until it faded completely, as if the bird had never paused and had already flown far away.
Xu Qing narrowed his eyes and suddenly lifted his right hand, grabbing at the bird that was far away. He wanted to see if this bird was real or fake.
The bird’s body trembled and its trajectory was changed, rolling back toward him.
However, the instant the trajectory changed and the bird landed in Xu Qing’s hand, the surroundings suddenly distorted intensely. A blurry and dizzy sensation appeared again.
This time around, it was even more intense than before. This was because all the bridal escort teams in the surroundings actually stopped at this moment. Everyone turned their heads and looked at Xu Qing in unison. Their expressions were wooden and their gazes were dull.
Xu Qing’s body paused. The feeling of touch in his hand allowed him to clearly sense that this bird was real. There was also its heartbeat and body temperature.
The scene of everyone in the surroundings looking at him was so strange that his scalp felt a little numb. After two breaths of silence, Xu Qing let go. The bird quickly rose into the air and returned to its original location, continuing to fly forward according to its previous trajectory.
It was as though its fate had long been decided.
The surrounding people also turned their heads as though nothing had happened and continued moving forward. Their expressions instantly recovered and they were filled with joy.
The music played and the scattering of flowers continued.
Only Xu Qing’s heart palpitated intensely as he looked at the captain.
The captain looked at Xu Qing with deep meaning.
This gaze caused Xu Qing to instinctively recall something the captain had said many times.
“Little Qing, just trust me.”
