Chapter 4051: Sheng Jing and Burning Crystal
As soon as Angel walked out of the hero's copy area, he saw Ivda walking towards him quickly.
"Mr. Angel, please follow me."
Ivda led a team of Crystal Eye guards, clearing the way for Angel and taking him towards the site of the awakening ceremony.
The further you go, the denser the crowds around you become.
Looking around, the mountains and plains are full of Crystal Eye people.
However, compared to the surging crowd in the afternoon, it was still slightly better now. At least now, the Crystal Eye guards could still open a smooth path; in the afternoon, even if the Great Elder Yota personally entered the crowd, he would not be able to create any waves and would be drowned in the sea of people in an instant, let alone open a path.
When Angel arrived at the foot of the mountain where the awakening ceremony took place, the scene before him startled him slightly.
When viewed from afar before, those glowing crystals that flashed like neon lights were not embellishments added by the Crystal Eye people to the awakening ceremony, but were used as lighting objects that were spontaneously held in the palms of the hands of all the Crystal Eye people.
They held the crystals in their hands, pressed them against their chests, and prayed devoutly toward the altar.
The countless points of light under the night sky represent the faith of each Crystal Eyed tribe member in their ancestors.
Moreover, despite the huge number of people gathered in the valley and the mountains, there was no noise, and it was as quiet as a cloudless night. Everyone kept silent tacitly, and prayed silently in their hearts.
From this we can see that the rituals of the ceremony have been deeply imprinted in the blood and souls of the Crystal Eye Clan.
Even though it was just a temporary awakening ceremony, there was no disorder at all.
This is definitely a good thing for today's awakening ceremony. But from another perspective, it is also a kind of sadness. The imprint deep in the soul makes every Crystal Eye tribe member become a ritual from birth, which also means that the Crystal Eye tribe will hold rituals anytime and anywhere, and every time a ritual appears, it represents the death of a genius boy.
Take Li Ta for example. If it weren't for the sudden appearance of Dream Crystal Origin, which changed the trajectory of his fate, Li Ta would probably have been possessed by Tunita during the ceremony and eventually died with hatred.
Fortunately, the dark fog that shrouded the Crystal Eye Clan has slowly dissipated.
The closer Ivda got to the awakening ceremony, the more admiration she looked at Angel.
It was the arrival of Angel and the Dream Mirror Organization that dispelled the haze and brought hope.
Even she herself was given a new life through this honor.
For some time before this, Eveda did not have such a deep feeling about resurrection, but after seeing this ceremony and feeling the faith of everyone, she suddenly woke up and realized that she could really choose her life again.
What kind of life do I want to live this time?
There were so many thoughts in Yifda's mind that she even began to imagine living a life different from the past... However, Yifda quickly gathered her thoughts. She knew that these were not things to consider now. There was still a lot of time in the future, and her life had just begun a new chapter.
While Yifda was lost in thought, the giant city spirit and Great Elder Yota, who were standing high on the altar, also saw them coming.
They stepped down from the platform without hesitation and headed towards Ingres.
And under their personal escort, they sent Ingres all the way to the viewing platform.
The so-called viewing platform is the best place to view the entire awakening ceremony. It is even more suitable for viewing than the platform where the ceremony is hosted.
This viewing platform has only one main seat, which is obviously specially set up for Ingres.
No one present, even those who were praying silently on the mountain, was surprised at this.
Whether it was letting the prophet and the giant city spirit join hands to welcome them, or the only viewing platform, in their view, it was inevitable. They even felt that this was not enough.
If it were someone else, perhaps they wouldn't care; but Angel is different. He is the new generation of spiritual leader on the spiritual list and the hero who saved the entire Crystal Eye tribe.
He is definitely a legendary figure who will surely appear in the epic of the Crystal Eye tribe.
How could such a big shot be treated just like this?
There were too few people welcoming him, and the viewing platform was too simple. It would be better to design a set of rituals specifically for welcoming Ingres. It would be even better if there were specially made uniform costumes...
Fortunately, Angel didn't know what the crowd was thinking. If he had really followed their ideas, he probably wouldn't have come... Unless he got a fashion monster like a national idol, he could increase his energy point limit just by relying on fans' support.
After Angel sat down, Elder Yota returned to the altar.
Ifta and the giant city spirit stayed at the observation platform.
Amidst the solemn sound of trumpets, the long-awaited awakening ceremony of the Crystal Eye Tribe slowly began.
"The darkest days have passed. From this moment on, from now on, it will be the best era for our Crystal Eye Tribe!"
Elder Yota's calm words echoed in everyone's ears through the transmission of the fairyland prop "loudspeaker". At the same time, it also announced that the awakening ceremony had entered the first act.
——Dance.
In previous ceremonies, there would be special sacrificial dancers performing sacrificial dances during the grand dance stage, so it was called the grand dance.
It is also known as the opening ceremony of the ceremony.
However, the awakening ceremony this time abandoned the "sacrificial dance", because the full name of the sacrificial dance is "a dance performed to commemorate the dead young men". This ceremony does not require any young men to die, and naturally does not require the sacrificial dance of the past.
During the grand dance stage, only one person went up to the altar: Handa.
That is, he is the urban designer of the Crystal Eye Tribe’s settlement.
After Handa came on stage, she did not perform any dance. Instead, she stood still, closed her eyes and stretched out her hands.
Almost at the same moment, the rhythmic sound of drums rang out, the drums were steady and powerful, like the heartbeat of the earth. Along with the drums, an amazing scene happened: a large amount of mist diffused from Handa's hands, as if it was given life, and quickly transformed into the hazy shadows of city buildings around the altar, in the sky above, and even in the stream below.
If you look closely, you will find that the outlines of these buildings all come from the new city currently under construction!
In a flash, the prototype of the Crystal Eye Tribe's future new city appeared in miniature around the altar in the form of a projected illusion, with trees scattered around and appearing lifelike.
Even though it has not been fully built and is just a prototype, one can still see the prosperity of the new city.
Handa used the illusion of the prototype of the new city to bring everyone's consciousness into the grand scene, so...
"The first scene of the awakening ceremony has been changed from a grand dance to a grand scene. No more fresh lives will be lost in the grand dance. Instead, in the future, countless magnificent buildings will rise from the ground with the blueprint of the grand scene!"
The voice of the giant city spirit rang in Angel's ears.
It was both an explanation to Ingres and an expression of his inner thoughts.
As the spirit of Crystal City, she has witnessed too many separations and deaths as a silent bystander, especially those lives lost during the dance stage. Every time she witnesses this, she feels regretful and heartbroken.
The dance may seem dazzling and gorgeous, but it cannot cover up the darkness and filth behind it.
But now, the grand dance is no longer there, only the grand scene.
How could she not feel emotional?
Angel was not immersed in the "grand scene", but thought silently in his heart: It turned out that when he went offline before, the giant city spirit asked him to temporarily extend the borrowing time of the illusion node, and it was used here.
But then again, the architectural illusion that Handa created using illusion nodes, from its proportions to its materials, from its arrangement to its gradual entry and exit layout... can be regarded as a template for architectural design, taking into account the vision of everyone present in all aspects.
As expected of a great designer, he is very thoughtful.
Even if Angel came to power, he probably wouldn't be able to achieve the same precision as Handa. After all, he knew nothing about urban construction.
After Handa left the stage, the awakening ceremony entered the second act, named: Burning Crystal.
This stage is the most core part of the entire ceremony, marking the beginning of the formal recovery process!
There are a total of thirty-six fire altars around the altar, and each of them is currently empty.
Every time a flame in a fire altar ignites and burns the crystals inside, it means that an elder has awakened from a long and deep sleep.
This is why this stage is called "Crystal Burning".
However, at present in the Dream Crystal Origin, they have not found the fire crystal that can keep the flame burning for a long time, so the "crystal" in the burning crystal stage was changed to "wood".
Therefore, there is nothing wrong with calling the crystal burning stage the wood burning stage.
"Wake up!"
Elder Yota shouted his name loudly with a voice as loud as a bell, full of endless expectations and solemnity:
"Jieyu's Yodeda!"
In an instant, the ceremonial officer holding the torch quickly stepped forward amid the passionate shouts and brought the torch close to the first fire pot. The flame touched the kerosene in the fire pot, and with a whoosh, a blazing flame instantly ignited!
At the same time, all the witnesses present, except Ingres, bowed their heads at the same time and silently hummed the "Fiery Resurrection Poem" which had been circulating in the tribe for a long time.
The solemn humming sounds intertwined together to form an invisible yet powerful force that echoed in the air, as if really calling for the sleeper's soul to return.
Amid the chanting of the crowd, a vague figure slowly emerged above the altar.
Moreover, as the chanting became more passionate, the shadows gradually solidified and the outlines became clearer, and finally the person on the altar slowly opened his eyes.
With a confused look, he greeted the enthusiastic gazes of countless Crystal-Eyed people.
"This person is none other than Yodeda, a member of the Council of Elders who passed away decades ago!" Giant City Spirit also began to explain Yodeda's past.
However, Angel did not listen carefully.
He felt a little subtle at the moment, mainly because... the sense of ritual in the crystal burning stage was too strong, so much so that in a trance, even Angel thought it was the "awakening ritual" that awakened Yodeda.
But when he was thinking: While Elder Yota was talking, someone went offline to inform the people offline, and the people offline were busy placing the corresponding Holy Corpse Crystals into the Holy Corpse Awakening Magic Energy Array, and then counting the beats, activating the Magic Energy Array...
This is the only way to create the situation where "Youdeda" comes online just at the climax of the resurrection poem.
Thinking of this, the solemn sense of ceremony that had just been established was dismantled into pieces bit by bit.
Yodeda's awakening is just the beginning of this ceremony.
As the fire altars around the altar were lit one by one, the faint flames jumped and swayed, and more Crystal Eye heroes who had passed away slowly woke up on the altar.
Alita is regarded as the most powerful king in the past thousand years.
Rebeda, a dragon crystal craftsman who had once received instruction from the dragon clan.
A scholar who travels the void and studies knowledge of natural disasters, Kongtaxi.
They are at the top of the art world and are known as one of the three mythical gods together with Handa: Youyouda and Yuta.
They were all famous people in the history of the Crystal Eye Clan, and they were resurrected one by one on the altar. At this moment, they might still be a little confused about the current situation, but when they felt the burning gazes of the people around them and listened to the resurrection poems that never stopped, they more or less guessed the situation in front of them.
Completely different from the tribesmen who were resurrected in the valley in the afternoon, as soon as they appeared on the altar, there was no sign of nervousness on their faces. They even quickly got over the period of confusion, and then stood at the corners corresponding to the fire altar without any prior agreement.
Although there was no rehearsal, the reaction to the ceremony was more precise than if it had been rehearsed!
This mentality and ability to adapt to emergencies are far superior to other Crystal Eyes. They are indeed elite talents that can be revived by special rituals.
"This is the last of the thirty-six elders resurrected in this awakening ceremony, Delta." The giant city spirit still diligently introduced each resurrected person.
"He is known as the pinnacle of the Crystal Eye Clan's computing power. He was once possessed by a mirror ghost when he ventured into the Dark Mirror Domain. He relied on his powerful computing power to calculate every piece of crystal flesh on his body and completely expelled the possessed mirror ghost..."
Angel stared at Delta on the altar. Like the other awakened elders, he quickly realized what state he was in, and then quickly came to the last corner corresponding to the fire altar.
The resurrection poems that never stopped around them became louder and louder, as if they were shouting excitedly to complete the ritual corners.
As the first and second levels of the altar were completed, the third level altar began to light up.
But the fire on the third layer did not come from the altar, but from the torches erected around the "holy bed".
The "Holy Bed" is a crystal table with intricate carvings on the third-level altar.
It is also the creation at the top of the entire altar.
At the same time, it is also the last and most important part of the second act of the awakening ceremony, the "Crystal Burning" stage: the resurrection of the main position.
The main person here is, without a doubt, the great prophet who once created a brilliant chapter for the Crystal Eye Clan!
When all six torches around the holy bed were lit, the outline of a human figure slowly emerged above the holy bed.
The recitation of the resurrection poem paused for a moment when the figure appeared, as if everyone was stunned with surprise at the same time.
But soon, the resurrection poem reached its climax today after hitting bottom and rebounding!
Almost everyone stood up.
They pressed the glowing crystals against their chests and shouted out the final resurrection poem with all their strength!
Their expressions were clearly solemn and dignified, but the madness in their eyes was extremely obvious.
The atmosphere at the scene was so heated that even Qi Han seemed to be driven away by the night.
Even Eveda, who was standing behind Ingres, could not help but silently recite the resurrection poem, looking at the figure on the holy bed with tears in her eyes.
The giant city spirit did not recite a poem to revive the dead, but the look in her eyes behind the door curtain also carried the realization of a lifetime and many years later.
After all, the person on the holy bed is not only Yifda's teacher, but also the founder of the giant city spirit...
It is regarded as a golden rule, but it has also attracted much criticism.
The only prophet who is both the holiest and the darkest.
Tunita!
