Chapter 1103: Worship Jiang Yi, the Core of the Light Realm

"I found this Mushu Box from the Great Sun Carriage when I was looking for a solution. It contains the method and utensils for the Thousand Lanterns Ceremony." Ah Zhi said, "Fortunately, I can understand human writing."

The last sentence was spoken in a lower voice, as if he was talking to himself.

Sure enough, there was a problem. Ying still heard Ah Zhi's words that made him shut up immediately. The other party didn't seem to be hiding his abnormality.

"Hmm? Isn't it normal that you can understand human characters? Do you mean that you can understand the characters of the ancient Yuanxia Palace?" Paimon's ears are sometimes quite sensitive.

Ah Zhi reacted: "Yeah, almost..."

In fact, she didn't know whether the characters on the "Yuanhai Zhuyou Collection" that recorded the "Thousand Lantern Festival" ceremony were ancient or modern.

"Hmm?" Paimon listened to the other party's perfunctory answer.

"The power in the Mushu Box is not strong now, and it cannot fully bless the six secret techniques." Azhi reminded, and she took Ying and Paimeng to a place.

Ying and Paimeng looked forward. It was a huge stone statue wearing a long robe and a hood. The left hand raised from the wide sleeves held a lantern, and the other hand was embracing a thick golden coral branch in front of the chest. After the stone skin was broken, golden crystals were revealed.

There are two clusters of blue-purple corals at the feet of the statue, surrounded by the special luminous vegetation of Yuanxia Palace, and behind it is a towering wall.

"Originally, the ritual was performed according to the steps in the book. The core of the Thousand Lanterns seems to be this statue. If you offer the crystal of light power to it, the Mushu Box will become more powerful. If you rest there, you can also restore the box's energy."

Ah Zhi said uncertainly: "Now... the core of the Thousand Lanterns Ceremony seems to have become... Lord Tianzang Yulongjun."

She found that she no longer needed to maintain the ritual, as it had been controlled by the god.

"..." Paimeng touched his chin and thought for a while, "Does that mean we want to worship Jiang Yi?"

"I always feel like he's taking advantage of me." Ying felt like she was inexplicably inferior to him.

"Whose statue is this?" Paimon looked at the stone statue, "Wait a minute..."

She flew quickly towards Jiang Yi.

"That is the statue of the Sea Master. The Sea Master is a follower of Oropus. When I, a god, arrive, my status is higher than his. With the recognition of the Great God of the World and the favor of the World of Light, you should naturally worship me." Jiang Yi, who was immersed in his practice, opened his eyes and said to Paimeng with a smile.

"Moreover, there are several types of light world powers dedicated to the statue: the seal of the light world, the core of the light world, the marrow of the abyss sea, and the pod of the eternal world..."

"The seals of the Light Realm are all on me. The core of the Light Realm is the extra help that the Light Realm provides to humans in order to fight against the abyss. It is made of golden stone on the outside and contains abundant Light Realm power on the inside."

"The Abyssal Sea Marrow Ore is a special mineral deposit produced by the Sea Spirit Sacrifice." Jiang Yi described it one by one, "Because the environment of the Abyssal Palace has undergone drastic changes, the memories and thoughts that were diffused by the sea also solidified into marrow, and then turned into minerals."

“When it is not contaminated by the power of the abyss, it is a blue ore with a mirror-like shell and water-like runes on it.”

"Finally, there is the Pod of Eternal Life, a plant with a hint of blood-red petals and a blue-based body. It is also created because of the awakening of the Sea Spiritual Sacrifice and the gentleness of the elemental power of the Abyss Palace."

"You have obtained the Mushu Box. The Mushu Box can absorb light and then offset the darkness of the virtual world in a small range. So when collecting, you need to first deal with the Abyssal Marrow Ore and the Abyssal Aura on the Pod of the Eternal World before collecting."

"At the same time, some of the Eternal Pods will be in a semi-transparent invisible state when there is no light force shining on them. Remember to pay attention and observe them."

"You need to collect more of these things. You will need them in the purification of some organs."

Paimeng was overwhelmed by Jiang Yi's long ramblings: "You are just like the organizer of those activities now!"

"No! Just sit here motionless, just like those wind god statues and the sacred cherry trees."

"Also, there are rewards for offering sacrifices!"

Jiang Yi was puzzled: "Aren't you the altar purifier? It's only natural for you to worship me!"

“???!!!” Paimon’s eyes widened. He didn’t expect this to happen. “I don’t…”

She still didn't have the courage to say that she would no longer be the altar purifier.

"Think positively. It's better to worship a dumb statue than to worship me. It's obvious. I can instantly upgrade your Box of Mushu to the highest level. It will be easier for you to deal with monsters strengthened by the abyss."

"Okay, collect materials for me to practice... No! Go collect materials to solve the black fog!" Jiang Yi waved his hand.

"Don't think I didn't hear you!" Paimon stamped his feet, "You just mentioned the cultivation materials, right?"

"Really?" Jiang Yi played dumb.

Paimon flew away angrily.

Jiang Yi smiled, and his entire body was covered by the power of the light world, as bright as the human body of the "Giant of Light".

……

"I'm back!" Ying looked at Paimeng who flew back to deliver the message.

"Oh, oh, oh! Is that so!" She nodded after listening, "Jiang Yi must be suitable for the job of Catherine in the Adventurer's Association."

"Great minds think alike!" Paimon crossed his arms, "He's exactly like the grandfather who issues quests."

"Maybe it's the big sister!" Ying felt it was not surprising that Jiang Yi suddenly became real.

Ah just listened to the conversation between the two.

There is absolutely no respect for the gods.

"It seems that Lord Tianzang Yulong has already taught you how to use the Mushu Box." Ah Zhi waited for the two to finish complaining about Jiang Yi before he spoke: "The concentration of black fog in different areas of Yuanxia Palace is different, and the intensity of its erosion on life is different."

"When the light in the 'Box of Mushu' is weak and suppressed by the abyss, the energy inside will continue to dissipate. After the energy is exhausted, you will also be harmed."

"However, since Lord Tianzang Yulongjun said that he would help you upgrade to the highest level, then this Mushu Box is enough to protect you from the power of the abyss and travel to various places in the Abyss Palace."

Paimon showed disdain: "To make it easier for us to run errands?"

Ah Zhi's mouth corners curved slightly.

"The guys from the abyss, use the virtual world tower to spread the power of the abyss. This will cause great pain to the coral king worms and deep sea dragon lizards."

“Although I don’t know why Lord Tianzang Yulongjun didn’t take action, he… should be anxious too!”

"Hmm?" Ying looked at Azhi.

"Yeah! The coral kingworm turned into a coral butterfly is quite cute. We should really help Jiang Yi, this unsympathetic guy." Paimon stamped his feet, "But, did you just mention the abyss?"

"Yes! I met the culprit of this incident. He is a guy who talks a lot of nonsense. Somehow, he knew about the Three Realms and the Triangle in Abyss Palace. After that, he used the technology of the Abyss to bring those things and transformed the Three Realms Tower." Azhi nodded.

"Today, the Three Realms Tower has been transformed into a Void Realm Tower that was restored by the Abyss in accordance with its form and traditions, attracting a large amount of power from the Abyss Void Realm."

"So that's how it is?" Ying and Paimeng were a little surprised.

Just now they passed by the camps of Swordfish Squadron 1 and Manta Squadron 3, and heard the soldiers from the Coral Palace say that they wanted to find the mastermind behind the scenes.

Unexpectedly, the mastermind behind the scenes had already been found.

If the people from the two squads heard it, they would definitely praise Jiang Yi for his ingenuity in luring the snake out of its hole and catching the culprit.

"Is that the guy from the abyss?" Paimon felt that the description of talking nonsense was a little familiar.

"Maybe it's him?" Ying nodded. "I've been wanting to beat him up for a long time. He got away last time, so I won't let him go this time."

"Do you two know him?" Ah Zhi asked in surprise, "He is our common enemy."

"To eliminate the black fog, you need to climb to the highest point of the three virtual world towers, then activate the light world chisel above and release the power of the light world."

Speaking of this, she thought of Tianzang Yulongjun who had a horn of light on his forehead.

"Yuanxia Palace is indeed a place where the earth veins of the human world, the elemental flows of the light world, and the undercurrents of the virtual world are all very strong. No matter which world's power is aroused, it can cause a huge impact."

"Only when the three realms are balanced can it be the best."

Paimeng suddenly felt that this action was also helping Jiang Yi practice!

Isn't Jiang Yi favored by the Light Realm now? Is it really impossible to force the power of the Light Realm to descend?

Of course he can, but Jiang Yi is now also favored by the abyss of nothingness.

His glowing interior was also roiling with darkness.

The lotus under the seat of Bodhisattva Miaoye, after obtaining the power of the light realm, illuminates the bright pure land. Countless six-syllable mantras transform into Dharma wheels, grinding away the black mist on the body of the pitch-black Yinglong.

The "three" realms, the light realm, the human realm, and the alien realm are transformed into solid shackles to control and balance the power of the dark abyss and nothingness.

Ah Zhi drew a map: "The locations of the three towers are marked for you. Exploration requires gradual progress. I recommend you start with the tower here."

"I don't know what the meaning of that guy from the abyss is. To us, the abyss is like a strong toxin; to them, it is also a chronic and addictive poison."

"The source of the black fog in the virtual world is the high tower in the triangular area on the edge of Yuanxia Palace. Hurry up!"

"Okay!" Ying took the map. She had only heard Jiang Yi describe that trial on the way.

It turned out that at that time, Jiang Yi was already laying the groundwork for him to do the work!

"Does this ceremony have a name?" Paimon suddenly asked.

"Well, if we have to give it a name, it can be called the Three Realms Road Feast, or more accurately the Triangle Road Feast." Ah Xi thought about it.

"Actually, I think calling it the Tenzo Yulong Festival isn't much different." Paimon complained, "We have to offer sacrifices to the gods first."

"..." Ah Zhi was silent.

"One last question, why is Ms. Aji wearing this strange mask? It looks like a dragon lizard mask." Before Paimon left, there was one more reason.

Ying was also curious and looked at Azhi.

Azhi hid her hands in her sleeves, and her shrine maiden costume was solemn and beautiful.

"To cover up my shame. Some things happened when I was growing up. I'm worried about scaring ordinary people, that's all. Will you not believe me because of this?"

"No! No!" Paimon waved his hands hastily, "You are the witch of the Coral Palace! Why don't we believe you?"

"The priestess of the Coral Palace..." Ah Zhi snorted softly, "Really?"

She watched Ying and Paimon leave.

He walked towards where Jiang Yi was.

"If this is betrayal... I really don't like it. Just like I don't like those who betray and play with others in the abyss." She maintained the etiquette of a witch as she walked.

Jiang Yi opened his eyes and looked at the witch who came before him.

"You know everything, right?" Ah Zhi asked.

There was no one else around.

The Swordfish Squadron 1 and the Ray Squadron 3 were still far away.

"What kind of power does the god you imagine has?" Jiang Yi asked instead of answering directly.

The two of them were like complete strangers.

This was indeed the first time that Jiang Yi met this witch, although he had previously praised the Thousand Lantern Festival ceremony hosted by this witch.

"The power to bring pain to the dragon lizard." Azhi replied.

In the Abyss Palace, the deep-sea dragon lizard is roaring.

The deep-sea dragon lizard does not like darkness, but hates light, because in this abyss, light represents human activities, and humans are protected by gods.

Now, they also hate the abyss, because as the original pure elemental life of the light world, they are not adapted to the darkness of this distorted life form.

"Is your horn a dragon horn?" Ah Zhi looked at Jiang Yi's coral dragon horn. "You are not the Dragon King of the Light Realm, the Seven Elemental Dragons that represent the wild and primitive elemental forces."

Want a showdown?

Jiang Yi was not very surprised.

"Because I am not a dragon from the light world! But without the pure deep-sea dragon lizard, I will not be able to become the water dragon king. And according to the prophecy, will the water dragon born in human form still like the current form of the deep-sea dragon lizard? Although he may regard the deep-sea dragon lizard as his family."

"Ms. Aji, how about taking off the mask?" He spoke like a frivolous playboy.
