Section 93
The villagers took up the things in their arms and walked forward. Some put fruits, some put meat, and some put flowers.
"You should follow quickly." The old man urged.
Su Chen looked at Zhongli.
Zhongli took the offerings and walked to the statue and put them down.
When all the offerings were in place and incense was burned, the village chief shouted-
"One bow!"
The villagers knelt down one after another.
"Bow again!"
They kowtowed.
"Three bows!"
"Hey, why are you still standing?"
Some villagers saw Su Chen and Zhongli standing at the end and scolded them.
"These two people are too rude to not bow to the gods."
The old man quickly signaled: "Kneel down quickly."
Su Chen looked at Zhongli and said: "You insisted on coming, so bow quickly."
Zhongli thought about it and still felt that it was too bad. Just when he was about to find a reason to refuse, a strong wind suddenly blew through the mountains, bringing a low roar, followed by a shaking of the ground and rumbling like an earthquake.
"Quick! The demon is coming out, run!"
The village chief exclaimed.
The villagers immediately fled in panic, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Su Chen raised his foot and stepped lightly, and the power was poured into it, calming the vibration.
Then he looked at Zhongli, and the two turned into streams of light and flew towards the source of the sound.
The villagers who were running away paused, looked back and saw this scene, and were frightened and knelt on the ground.
"God, immortal!"
In the crowd, the old man looked a little confused.
He actually accepted the money from the immortal? ? ?
...
Swish!
Here, Su Chen and Zhongli fell beside an ancient tree.
Fulong Tree.
The scream at this time came from inside.
"Back then, Ruotu felt that his thoughts were chaotic and difficult to control, so I took action to seal him here." Zhongli said in a gentle voice, "Although I have tried my best to restrain the damage to the earth veins by the people of Liyue, I still can't save Ruotu... I owe him."
"Morax..."
A low voice echoed in the mountains.
The voice was steady, without any sense of madness.
Compared to the dark side of Ruotu in the game, he is in a good situation now.
"Old man, are you okay?" Su Chen said with a smile.
"Is this voice... the Human Emperor?"
"Yes, I came to see you, are you okay?"
"How come..."
In the long years, Ruotu Dragon King remembered that the Human Emperor had passed away, so how could he appear again?
Is he getting angry again today?
"Time changes with each passing day, just as the clear air rises and the turbid air falls year after year, this is the way of reincarnation." Su Chen smiled slightly, "Look, I have reincarnated for countless years just to come back to see you."
There was silence under the Fulong tree for a moment.
"Morax, did the Human Emperor... hit his head?"
Su Chen: "..."
Zhongli also rarely showed a faint smile: "I think so too."
"Forget it, Ruotu, you have been underground for many years, and it's time to come out and breathe." Su Chen said.
Ruotu Dragon King refused.
"I can still control myself here. If I go out, I'm afraid I will do something harmful to Liyue."
"You can control yourself, but you still howl all day long?"
The Dragon King Ruotu thought to himself, can I say that it's because I recently heard humans talking about the death of the emperor?
I originally planned to call an immortal to ask, but I ended up calling the emperor. I was really shocked just now.
"Okay, since I let you out, I will naturally find a way to relieve your pain." Su Chen said again.
Ruotu was still hesitant until Zhongli persuaded him, and then he agreed.
He and Su Chen came here to rescue Ruotu.
The next moment, Zhongli released his divine power and tore the seal.
Ruotu rushed out from inside.
Rumble~~~
The Fulong Tree shook violently, and Ruotu's huge body moved underground, causing the rocks to collapse and cracks to appear on the ground.
Roar! ! !
The dragon roared, shaking the earth.
As Ruotu emerged from the seal, the dark power that had eroded him for countless years began to erupt.
The wear and tear on Ruotu's body came from the damage to the Liyue earth veins. These forces accumulated over time and turned into evil spirits that eroded his will. In a way, they were more terrifying than the remnants of the demon god.
"Human Emperor, Morax..."
Ruotu stood on the earth, and the pain of tearing his soul began to burn him. He raised his head and roared, and endless elemental power gathered through the earth veins - mountain torrents erupted, earth and rocks collapsed, ice and frost covered, purple thunder roared, countless visions covered the entire Nantianmen, forming a great force that overwhelmed all living things in the sky!
This power, even Su Chen couldn't help but jump his eyelids.
Back then, he still had the peak state of the Human Emperor template, and he was confident to fight with Zhongli, so he was naturally not afraid of Ruotu, but now he was beaten back to his original form, facing the existence of Ruotu Dragon King, he was really a little weak in his heart.
"Are you sure?" Zhongli couldn't help asking.
If Su Chen hadn't mentioned the method of rescuing the Ruotu Dragon King, he wouldn't have come here with Su Chen. Although Zhongli trusted Su Chen 100%, he was even more worried about him, afraid that his old friend would leave again.
"Don't worry." Su Chen chuckled, "It's good to have you here. If he fails, you can let him go back. That's it. Your previous arrangements will have to be changed."
Zhongli shook his head gently: "You told everyone that my arrangements have been messed up. It's good if you can succeed, after all, you are also a human being."
"So it's also in your plan?" Su Chen asked with a smile.
But Zhongli didn't say anything, looking at him with worry.
Su Chen stopped talking and released the power of the Human Emperor template.
The Human Emperor of Liyue, this template can only exert the greatest and most incredible power in Liyue.
Gathering the faith of all living beings in Liyue, if it was in the era of the Human Emperor, Su Chen could even rely on this template to reach Zhongli's level, but it's a pity that it is far worse than before.
At this moment.
Endless willpower gathered under Su Chen's control, causing his aura to continue to rise. After reaching a peak state, he flipped his right hand and a golden chess piece appeared in Su Chen's hand.
Heart of the Rock God!
Bathed in the golden light, Su Chen spoke the truth:
"I, Xuanyuan, ascend to God at this moment!"
Boom! ——
The surging divine power burst out from the Heart of the Rock.
Through the stimulation of the willpower of all living beings, the power of the Heart of God was guided and gathered on Su Chen, allowing his strength to temporarily recover to its peak state!
Rumble, rumble, rumble! !
Thunder roared.
A phantom of the Human Emperor appeared in the sky and gathered in the sky of Liyue.
At this moment, everyone in Liyue was stunned. They raised their heads and felt the supreme power of the phantom of the Human Emperor. They knelt down and shouted-
"Human Emperor!"
The Human Emperor uttered a word: "Swords come."
Clang clang clang clang clang clang clang!
The nine swords of heaven and earth all soared into the sky and gathered towards the phantom of the Human Emperor.
"Wow sword! Xuanyuan Sword!"
Ying and Paimeng, who were rushing to draw their swords, ran all the way after the swords, but saw Xuanyuan Sword flying into the clouds without looking back, and landed beside the phantom of the Human Emperor, turning into nine swords for protection and circling.
The nine swords magnified countless times in an instant, emitting a sacred and dazzling golden light, reflecting the earth.
Wherever the golden light covered, all demons and evil spirits turned into ashes under the power of God!
"Congeal."
One more word.
The nine swords merged into one and turned into the real Xuanyuan Sword.
The shadow of the Human Emperor stretched out his hand and grasped it.
