C708 The Sublimation Ceremony
After following the skeleton for a while, they reached the end of the road. They thought this was their destination, but they saw the skeleton reach out and tap the wall in front of them, and then the wall became illusory.
"Come in directly."
As the spirit spoke, it controlled the skeleton to walk into the wall. When Ye Hong Tian saw this scene, he directly walked in.
His body entered the wall without any hindrance. When he passed through the wall, he felt as if he had fallen into mud, but he instantly walked out of the wall and came to a place that was similar to an altar.
There was a very large horn on the altar, and a skeleton sat cross-legged at the bottom of the horn. Judging from the aura of the skeleton, this person was probably only at the fifth or sixth stage of True Essence when he was alive.
The divine soul controlled the skeleton to walk to the front of the huge horn, and then threw the skeleton that was sitting there into a hole at the side.
Ye Hong Tianxia consciously looked towards the hole. It didn't matter if he didn't look, but when he saw Ye Hong Tian, he began to panic. This hole was filled with the bones of martial artists.
"Senior, let me ask, these bones can't be the bones of martial artists who came here but failed to sublimate, right?" Ye Hong Tian looked at the skeleton and asked.
"Oh? You are quite smart to be able to see that. Since you already know... Then you probably don't want to become one of them, right? Just work hard to sublimate yourself. The sublimation will bring you tremendous benefits. " The divine soul said.
Hearing the divine soul say so, Ye Hongtian couldn't help but gulp. He looked back at the bones in the pit again. He seemed to see these bones waving at him, asking him to go down and accompany them.
"Holy shit, it's all an illusion. This place is truly too terrifying. I wonder just how this ascension ceremony is going to be carried out." Ye Hongtian shook his head and muttered.
He strode to the skeleton's side and closed his eyes. He took a deep breath and then opened his eyes again. When he opened his eyes again, he gave off a different feeling.
Sensing Ye Hongtian's change, his soul made a sound of surprise. Then, he signaled Ye Hongtian to sit where the skeleton that was thrown into the pit was.
After Ye Hongtian sat down, the divine soul said, "You sit here first. I will let you adjust your condition one day. The sublimation will begin after a day. I will increase the difficulty appropriately by the side. You be careful. "
After the divine soul finished speaking, it walked to the side, leaving Ye Hong Tian alone sitting on the altar. The surroundings were silent.
According to the divine soul, Ye Hongtian had been adjusting his condition for the entire day, allowing himself to enter the best state.
A day's time passed very quickly. The originally bright altar gradually became dim. The divine soul controlled the skeleton to stand 30 meters away from Ye Hongtian. The two horns on the skeleton's head flashed, and the sound of "clank clank clank" came from above Ye Hongtian's head.
Hearing this strange sound, Ye Hongtian knew that the sublimation ceremony had begun. His face was very serious as he looked up at the top of his head.
As the surroundings became dim, Ye Hongtian's vision was restricted. He could not clearly see what was above his head. He could only see something flashing with cold light gathering above his head. And more and more.
In about two to three breaths, a "kacha" sound was heard, as if something had broken. Then, the densely packed objects flashing with cold light fell from above his head.
Ding!
An object landed beside Ye Hong Tian and nailed itself to the ground beside him. Ye Hong Tian turned his head and saw that it was a silver needle as thick as a finger.
"It can't be!" Ye Hongtian looked at the needle that was nailed to the ground and shouted.
When he looked up again, countless silver needles fell from the sky, making Ye Hongtian's face turn pale.
He was prepared to dodge these dense silver needles, but just as he was about to move, he realized that there was a force pressing down on him, making him unable to move at all.
"The sublimation ceremony is not a dodging game. You just need to sit there."
The voice of the divine soul in the horn sounded in his mind. After listening to this sentence, dozens of silver needles had already been inserted into Ye Hong Tian's body, even his head.
Originally, Ye Hong Tian thought that he would be stabbed to death by these silver needles very soon, but then he realized that these silver needles did not penetrate too deep into his body. Each needle was stabbed at the right time, as long as Ye Hongtian felt the pain for a moment. After that, it was a very comfortable feeling.
The silver needles in the air soon all pierced into Ye Hongtian's body. When the last needle pierced into his body, Ye Hongtian's body began to involuntarily absorb the surrounding spiritual qi.
This time, the absorption of natural spiritual qi was not the same as before. It was completely open to absorption. Even the ten thousand Dao Tree seeds began to operate on their own.
The terrifying suction force caused a huge tornado to appear around Ye Hongtian. The five tornadoes revolved around Ye Hongtian and then combined into a tornado that wrapped Ye Hongtian inside.1
Inside the tornado, Ye Hongtian was sitting cross-legged on the eye of the tornado. He closed his eyes and the silver needles on his body fell down one by one as he absorbed more and more spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth.
It had been a long time since Ye Hongtian had let go of the restriction of the ten thousand tree seeds to absorb the natural spiritual qi. A large amount of natural spiritual qi was absorbed by Ye Hongtian's body. After being refined by the ten thousand tree seeds, it became the purest power for Ye Hongtian to absorb.
The impurities in the natural energies turned into a black substance that flowed out of Ye Hongtian's pores. His white clothes were instantly dyed black by the black substance.
While Ye Hongtian was crazily absorbing the spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth, the soul watching by the side was already stunned. The facial expression of the skeleton, which could not be seen at first, had a shocked expression.
"What kind of absorption ability is this? The first step of the sublimation is to use silver needles to release his absorption ability to increase his strength as much as possible. But this... "The divine soul muttered to itself.
As soon as it finished speaking, the tornado that swept across the altar suddenly dissipated. The divine soul thought that Ye Hong Tian was preparing to break through, but after a brief feeling, it realized that it was because the surrounding spiritual qi was completely absorbed.
Originally, this place was also a place with dense spiritual qi, but now it was so thin that it was like an area without spiritual qi.
Ye Hongtian sat cross-legged on the altar with a face full of enjoyment. He didn't care about this at all. In just a moment, he felt that his cultivation had improved again.
"If only I could absorb it like this for an entire day. Then I would absolutely be able to reach the peak of the second level of true essence." Ye Hong Tian said in a low voice.
The divine soul on the side heard Ye Hong Tian's words. Fortunately, his physical body had already collapsed. Otherwise, he would have definitely been shocked by Ye Hong Tian to the point of collapse.
Moreover, even if he didn't have a physical body, the skeleton under his control was also constantly trembling, reflecting his current state of shock.
