Chapter 948: First Step Completed

After becoming eerie, Xu Qing's right hand became transparent, but there were five drops of blood in it, forming a pentagonal pattern.

Even if it were transformed into a ghost, it would not be possible to hide these five drops of blood.

It can be seen how extraordinary these five drops of blood are.

Inside the altar, the moment Xu Qing grabbed with his right hand, the purple and green lamp on the purple and black lamp shook violently, rose into the air by itself, and was about to fly towards Xu Qing.

But at this moment, the five coffins around it suddenly trembled, each emitting the aura of royal blood, which blended with the flames here and turned into a giant golden hand.

He grabbed the purple and green lantern that was rising into the air with all his might.

At the same time, there were roars that were not like human voices coming from inside the coffin, and the lid of the coffin was also shaking, as if it was about to be opened.

In addition, the power of fire here also exploded more violently in an instant.

The terrifying high temperature and the divine aura that was enough to suppress the soul caused Xu Qing's right hand, which had turned translucent, to burn immediately.

The Great Xuantian Armor and the divine body could not withstand such high temperature at all. In an instant, his right hand was visibly turned into ashes.

Only the divine power in his body could hold on a little longer, but it could not change the process of his right hand being shattered at this moment.

Seeing that his right hand was about to shatter like a flying insect flying into the fire, Xu Qing did not stop or slow down at all. The five drops of blood in the broken arm were drawn out by him.

As the flames burned, the five drops of blood suddenly fell onto the five coffins on the altar.

A more refined and ancient royal bloodline surged out from these five drops of blood.

Formed bloodline suppression!
The golden hand formed by the aura of the coffin could not be stopped at this moment. It was pierced by the five drops of blood and fell on different coffins the next moment.

At the moment of falling, the five coffins that had been shaking continuously suddenly stopped, and the roars inside them also disappeared in an instant and became quiet.

At the same time, the golden hand formed by their breath also froze in mid-air.

As for Xu Qing, his right hand, which was mostly shattered, had already grabbed the flying purple and blue lantern!

Pull it outwards violently.

The lamp finally flew out of the crack.

The moment they left the altar, the trembling of the five coffins reappeared, and the roaring sounded the same, with an endless and strong sense of unwillingness within.

But the five drops of blood that fell on it shone at this moment and suppressed it again.

At the same time, Xu Qing's right hand also turned into ashes, but his left hand instantly raised up, grabbed the lamp that was taken out, and his body quickly retreated.

It’s a long story, but in fact, from the moment Xu Qing took advantage of the situation to rush into the flames to now, everything happened in a flash.

The small image could no longer hold on, quickly dimmed, and collapsed into countless afterimages that scattered everywhere.

As for the divine vine, it had also reached its limit and was mostly withered and retreating.

Then the pulling force dissipated, and the flame immediately recovered from its tilted state.

Even more violent roars came from the five coffins in the flames. Even the coffins themselves began to crack due to the intense flames.

An unstable wave rose above the altar.

Losing the important lamp is equivalent to losing the integration of the immortals, and the violent aura of the gods cannot be neutralized at this moment, so... this ceremony will naturally backfire!
The terrifying pressure grew stronger within the flames.

This scene made the Eleventh Prince laugh.

The ministers were silent.

The old eunuch who was watching let out a shrill sound.

But Xu Qing didn't care about all this at the moment. As he rushed forward, he had already collected the purple and green lantern that was filled with cracks. At the same time, due to the special nature of his divine body, his lost right arm grew back amidst the severe pain of tearing flesh and blood.

Although he inevitably felt weak, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, and his mind emerged with the method of obtaining the lamp that he had discussed with Zixuan in his Shangling Mansion several months ago.

This method was proposed by Zixuan and improved by him and Xu Qing.

Zixuan's perception of the lamp was very accurate, especially in the years when Xu Qing left the imperial capital. Zixuan seemed to be in seclusion, but in fact she used many secret methods to obtain more information.

Those five drops of blood were Zixuan's original blood.

It was also specially prepared for the five coffins. With this blood, the coffins can be suppressed for a short period of time.

This will make the process of removing the light smoother.

At the same time, they also discussed other steps, but the fire of becoming a god made too many methods ineffective, so Xu Qing could only take a risk.

However, after taking back the Zixuan Shangqing Lantern, Xu Qing instinctively felt a strange feeling in his heart.

“It seems like a risky gamble, but the process seems…too smooth.”

Xu Qing narrowed his eyes, put away Xiaoying and Shen Teng, and continued to retreat.

At this moment, as Xu Qing retreated, a roar rose from the altar that had lost its lamp. The next moment, the coffin collapsed and exploded.

But before any corpse could rush out, the golden flames surrounding the altar suddenly rolled back.

Backlash occurred.

The high temperature inside exploded instantly, sweeping away everything inside with a roar.

The five coffins were the first to be hit. Under the backlash of the divine fire, they were instantly turned into ashes. The same happened to the corpses inside, and even the altar itself.

Everything, under the backlash of this golden flame, the dust...

And the golden flame, without nourishment at this moment, gradually dissipated and went out.

The aura of deification that permeated the eight directions also dissipated at this moment, and the world returned to normal.

The ceremony of the Human Emperor becoming a god was interrupted!

And thus failed!
The eleventh prince's laughter spread in all directions, and the sense of joy contained in it was extremely strong. He then looked towards the Human Emperor.

At this moment, all the human officials inside and outside the Ancient Emperor Star had complicated feelings in their hearts, but they were all more or less relieved. However, the anxiety about the future could not help but continue to grow in their hearts.

But the next moment, the eleventh prince's laughter suddenly stopped, and a feeling of uneasiness rose in his heart.

Because he didn't see any ripples on the Human Emperor's face!

At this moment, the Human Emperor still had most of the unbroken chains on his body. Even after seeing that his deification ceremony had failed, his expression remained calm.

The eleventh prince felt more and more uneasy, and just as he was about to speak...

But at this moment, the ashes formed by the burning of the altar and corpses by the divine fire actually rushed straight towards the Human Emperor, in groups and in groups, and arrived in front of the Human Emperor in an instant.

When the Human Emperor took a breath, all the dust... fell into his mouth and was swallowed by him.

The sky roared and the earth trembled.

At this moment, the Ancient Emperor Star also began to shake.

The churning of luck is extremely violent!

An aura of deification that was countless times stronger than before suddenly burst out from the dissipated state and reappeared at this moment!

However, this time, the source of the explosion was no longer the altar that turned to ashes, but... the entire Ancient Emperor Star!!
The Ancient Emperor Star is actually burning!

The golden flame was much more intense than before, to the point where it was incomparable. It was burning with the Ancient Emperor Star as its core.

The entire imperial capital was shaking, and the entire imperial capital was fluctuating.

Really... this deification ceremony that appeared again at this moment was too terrifying.

All of this caused changes in the hearts of all the human officials inside and outside the Ancient Emperor Star, and the one who made everyone's hearts churn the most was... the King Zhenyan and the old eunuch who were fighting.

The two men who had been fighting for their lives were now retreating amid the roar. King Zhenyan came to the side of the eleventh prince with a normal expression.

The old eunuch returned to the Human Emperor.

He stood behind the Human Emperor and spoke respectfully.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty. The first step of the godhood ritual has finally been successfully completed."

As soon as these words came out, everyone was speechless.

At this moment, everyone understood that the old eunuch's previous words and actions trying to stop Xu Qing were obviously just a show.

The key to this scene is the deification ceremony that was destroyed by Xu Qing!
And now the explosion of the entire Ancient Emperor Star has already shown that the destruction of the five-pointed altar is not only part of the plan of the Human Emperor, but also... a part of the real deification ceremony!

Xu Qing narrowed his eyes. Although his previous move seemed thrilling, he actually had a feeling that this matter was going too smoothly.

Looking back now, he was right.

But this does not affect his decision. He does not participate in or judge the things here.

It is enough to get back the Zixuanshangqingdeng.

Xu Qing stepped back a little and simply sat down cross-legged.

As for the Human Emperor, the chains on his body were still breaking, but there was still no sign of any disturbance on his face. He just looked calmly at the Eleventh Prince, whose expression changed drastically, and spoke lightly.

"Any more?"

The Eleventh Prince looked pale, and a gloomy look appeared in his eyes as he watched all this. King Zhenyan, who was beside him, spoke hoarsely.

"Ningchang, there's no need to be so expressionful. This matter was within our expectations."

When the Eleventh Prince heard this, all the abnormality on his face disappeared instantly and he started to laugh.

"Although it was within my expectations, I still hoped that this would not happen. However, he is the Human Emperor after all. No matter how I deliberately made my emotions fluctuate, he remained calm from beginning to end. It was very boring."

"But now, I don't have to exaggerate my emotions."

The eleventh prince spoke with regret and bowed to the Human Emperor.

"Father, you want to see my preparations, so... just keep watching."

After he finished speaking, Ning Yan suddenly raised his hand, slapped his forehead, and spat out a large mouthful of blood.

At the same time, as he waved his hands, eleven small bottles appeared out of thin air and shattered into pieces, all of which were filled with blood.

Matching the one he spit out, there were twelve balls in total.

The moment it appeared, the royal bloodline fluctuated, rising into the sky within these twelve balls of blood.

As the blood came out, the expressions of the First Prince, the Fourth Prince, the Fifth Prince and the Tenth Prince, who had retreated to the edge of the Temple of Heaven, changed. They felt their own blood in these blood clots.

Not only them, but also the princes and princesses who did not enter the Ancient Emperor Star at this moment had similar feelings.

"This is the blood of all my brothers and sisters that I have secretly collected over the years, including my own."

The eleventh prince spoke softly.

"Today, with the blood of the Human Emperor's descendants, I will open the vortex of destiny, avoid the human race's formation, go around the limits of the Emperor Star, and form a gate between heaven and earth!"

The eleventh prince clasped his hands together and waved them violently. Suddenly, all the twelve balls of blood rose into the air, forming a huge blood-colored vortex in the air above the Ancient Emperor Star.

Amidst the deafening rumbling sound, a pulling force suddenly emanated from the vortex, as if a passage had been opened up!

A terrifying aura is descending from within.
