C4496 Mountain and River Offering Four(part Ii)

He nodded at Lin Hao with certainty and said, "It is indeed a young cicada, but its wings have not grown yet."1

"Then why are they -" Lin Hao immediately shut his voice as soon as he said those words. He clenched his fists and looked at the Imperial Emperor.

Why did the young cicadas break out of the ground before the time came? Why did they risk their lives to lay on the Great Desolate Mountain?

Lin Hao knew it very well. Like the previous beast tide, they were driven by their instincts and wanted to escape.

This Mountain and River Sacrificial Ceremony Codex was bound to be a major event.

"Imperial Emperor." Lin Hao turned around and gripped the reins of the Wind Shadow Horse tightly. His eyes stared intently at the snowy mountain in front of him. "Please be careful. This time, the Mountain and River Sacrificial Ceremony will definitely cause a major event to occur."

If Patriarch Sicheng and the others were beside him, they would definitely shout and shout again. They would say that Lin Hao had malicious intentions and cursed the Canglan Empire.

However, looking at the mud on the ground and the young cicadas that were struggling to move forward, even the Imperial Emperor could not help but feel nervous.

However, since things had already come to this point, retreating was impossible. They could only advance further and wait until the enemies hiding in the darkness attacked. Only then could they openly lead the attack.

"It doesn't matter. Our Canglan Empire has a thousand years of history. If we were afraid of this phenomenon every single time, we would have long ceased to exist." The Imperial Emperor swung the horsewhip in his hand and shouted towards the people behind him, "Forward!"

This time, the journey was very peaceful. There were no longer any strange natural disasters or animal phenomena. The group of people smoothly arrived at the top of the Great Desolate Mountain.

As the altitude difference between the foot of the mountain and its peak was too great, there was no longer any green grass on the top of the Great Desolate Mountain.

Everyone's eyes were filled with pure white snow. Even the blue sky seemed so close, as if one could touch the floating clouds with one hand.

The air here was already very thin. Fortunately, everyone's cultivation was not low, so it didn't affect their bodies at all.

As for the altar in the desolate mountain, Lin Hao thought it would be magnificent. At least, it should be covered with gold, with platinum patterns. Countless treasures would be piled on top of it, dazzling everyone.

In fact, there were only two giant trees that seemed to grow to the sky standing in the snow. The thick trunk was so thick that even ten people holding hands wouldn't be able to hold onto it.

When Lin Hao first saw the two trees standing on the snow, he even thought that they were two thick pillars. But when he got closer, he found that it was a brown tree trunk. The so-called green door was just the branches and leaves of the two trees intertwined.

"Those two are Tree of the Firmaments." The Imperial Emperor also dismounted from his horse and took the reins from Lin Hao's hands. He led him forward step by step.

When they got closer, Lin Hao suddenly realized that there was a wooden platform under the two trees. There was a large incense burner placed on top of the two trees, and it was filled with burnt ashes.

And on top of the incense ashes were three thick incense sticks, although they were almost at the bottom. They were not affected by the ice and snow at all. There were orange sparks at the top of the ashes, and they were still burning.

What kind of candle flame could last for thousands of years at the top of the snow mountain?

Seeing Lin Hao's shocked expression, the Monarch couldn't help but smile and explain in a low voice, "There is such a passage in the history books of Canglan Empire."

"The first two people who founded Canglan Empire were a couple in the ancient era. They spent day and night searching for the Cultivation, searching everywhere for the Heavenly Dao in their hearts."
