Vol 10 Chapter 531: Ceremony

There was no sun in the sky, but it was very bright. On a big branch of the sacred tree, a nine-story altar was erected. The guests from all sects who came to watch the ceremony had already sat down at their seats. Disciples, all have already done a good job of vigilance, just waiting for the sacrifice to the sky to start, and after the sacrifice to the sky, Zhao Hai will be regarded as the real suzerain of the Fire Phoenix Sect.
At this moment, the golden bell rang suddenly. This time the golden bell rang twelve times, and then a horn sounded. With the sound of the horn, Zhao Hai came from a distance. He was wearing a fiery red gift. Wearing a golden crown on top of his head, holding a fiery red jade meaning in his hand, with a fire phoenix engraved on the jade meaning, Zhao Hai walked forward slowly, step by step to the altar.
When he got to the altar, he put the jade meaning on the table of the altar with both hands, then he stepped back, then he knelt down, and bowed three times to the table on the altar. After three obeisances, he Then he stood up, and then he read aloud: "The emperor goes to heaven, the spirit of the sacred tree protects the world and protects the common people. His kindness will be remembered and will never be forgotten. I pray today, the sky loves, the sacred tree protects, and the fire The lineage of the phoenix, the blessings are long, forever remembered, the grace of the heavens, the blessings of the sacred tree, offering sacrifices every year, adding incense every year, worshiping with carved stones, praying with praises, the great ceremony is complete, and the blessings are still to be enjoyed!" After sacrificing to Tianwen, Zhao Hai bowed down again, and bowed three more times. Then he picked up three big incense sticks from the side, lit them, and inserted them into the three holes on the table. He took three steps back and stood up.
And at this time, a person under the stage shouted: "Li Cheng!" With this voice, Zhao Hai took a step back, and then he turned his head to look at the disciples of the Fire Phoenix Sect below. Loudly said: "See the suzerain!" With this voice, I saw the disciples of the Fire Phoenix Sect in the audience, all paying respects to Zhao Hai, and at the same time loudly said: "See the suzerain!"
Zhao Hai looked at the people below and said loudly: "Excuse me!" Following his voice, everyone bowed once, and then said loudly: "Thank you, Sect Master." Then he stood up, and then the voice from the audience said loudly : "Please invite the suzerain to enter the Taishang mansion and pay respects to the elders of the Taishang."
This is also a very important step in this ceremony, that is, Zhao Hai must enter the Supreme Mansion to meet the Supreme Elder. Having met the Supreme Elder, it is equivalent to being recognized by the Supreme Elder, so that he can You can be the suzerain.
Zhao Hai's figure moved and flew up directly. After a while, they disappeared into the upper branches and disappeared, but the people below were all watching the place where Zhao Hai disappeared.
At this time, Zhao Hai had already arrived at the tree hole where the Supreme Elder was. He stood in front of the tree hole and said loudly, "Lin Ze, the new Suzerain of the Fire Phoenix Sect, is here to pay respects to all the Supreme Elders." After he finished speaking, he stood there motionless, waiting for the answer from the people in the cave. Although the people in the cave are all elders, to a certain extent, they can influence the direction of the sect, and even directly It affects Zhao Hai, but it is only an influence. After all, Zhao Hai is the suzerain, and the Fire Phoenix Sect also has regulations. Need to be afraid.
"The suzerain is polite, please come in." A voice came from the tree hole, Zhao Hai responded, and walked in slowly. As soon as he entered, he saw a dozen old people wearing red robes standing in the tree hole Among them, Liu Yi was also there. Zhao Hai glanced at these old people, and then he bowed to these old people and said, "Lin Ze sees all the elders." After speaking, he clasped his fists at these elders.
Those elders looked at Lin Ze curiously. They had already heard Liu Yi say something about Zhao Hai, so they were very curious about Zhao Hai and wanted to know what kind of person Zhao Hai was. Hai, although the appearance is ordinary, but the bearing is extraordinary, which makes these elders quite satisfied with Zhao Hai. They are different from ordinary monks. Ordinary monks may see that Zhao Hai has no What momentum, Zhao Hai is no longer taken seriously, but they are different, what they look at is Zhao Hai's bearing, bearing and momentum are not the same thing, they think Zhao Hai's bearing is extraordinary, so they don't A little underestimate Zhao Hai's meaning. So he was very polite to Zhao Hai, and one of the elders even smiled and said: "The suzerain is polite, we old guys are not helpful to the sect now, the suzerain can come to see us, it is for us The old guy has a face, how can he afford the big gift from the suzerain, we should salute to the suzerain." After finishing speaking, they all clasped their fists at Zhao Hai and saluted.
As soon as Zhao Hai heard what the elder said, he hurriedly said: "This is what the elder said. You are all the Dinghai Shenzhen of our Fire Phoenix Sect. Only with you, my Fire Phoenix Sect can become one of the five great sects of the Divine Tree Realm. One, everyone must not say that, this really discourages me, Lin Ze has just succeeded to the suzerain position today, and I still need the support of the elders in the future, and I hope that the elders will support me as before, Lin Ze is here , Thank you all." After speaking, Zhao Hai saluted those Supreme Elders once.
Zhao Hai feels that it is not a big deal to salute these elders. These people are indeed the magic needles of the Fire Phoenix Sect. With them, the Fire Phoenix Sect will not have any troubles. This is very important, so Zhao Hai is also very polite to them, and the attitude of those Taishang elders is very useful when they see Zhao Hai, and even Liu Yi can't find any faults.
Those elders looked at each other, and then one elder said: "Of course, we will support you, please rest assured, but there is one thing we are very curious about, we heard that you seem to be very familiar with the current situation in the Divine Tree Realm." Dissatisfied, so you want to make some changes, but really?" They still decided to ask Zhao Hai directly to see if he meant it.
As soon as Zhao Hai heard what he said, he immediately opened his mouth and said: "Of course it is true. Now the people in the Divine Tree Realm are about to forget their roots. They think that the golden stem defense line can always block the attack of the Shadow Clan people, but it is not the case. Yes, the Shadow Clan people are just accumulating strength now. They built so many places that can produce shadow beasts, just to produce more shadow beasts, and then let these shadow beasts attack us. In the process, they can start from only Select some strong ones, and slowly cultivate these shadow beasts into title-level shadow beasts, and title-level shadow beasts, their combat effectiveness is very powerful, enough to compete with title-level monks. If we let it go on, there will be more and more title-level shadow beasts in the future, and it will only be more troublesome at that time. It will be even more difficult for us to deal with them in the future, and even wait until their title-level shadow beasts When the number of beasts reaches a certain level, they can attack us directly. At that time, can the Golden Dry Line really stop it? I can’t see it, right? That’s why I must be at Jiehai The reason for arranging people is that we have to use our power to guide those casual cultivators to hunt and kill shadow beasts and control the number of shadow beasts. It's dark, because what we are dealing with in Jiehai now is only the shadow beasts produced in Jiehai, but everyone, don't forget that there are many such strongholds on the outskirts of the Shadow Realm, and they are still producing shadow beasts. Now we have no way to hunt those shadow beasts. The number of shadow beasts will become more and faster. When their shadow beasts reach a certain number, they will definitely attack us Yes, then our life will be even more difficult, so now our Divine Tree Realm, although it looks very peaceful, is actually very dangerous. If we continue like this, what will the Divine Tree Realm become in the future? That's really hard to say, so we have to find a way to become an ally here in the Divine Tree Realm, so that we can organize the people here in the Divine Tree Realm, form a coalition together, and then jointly attack the people of the Shadow Clan."
Hearing what Zhao Hai said, those Supreme Elders were all silent. They really hadn't thought about this problem before, but now that Zhao Hai said this, they suddenly realized that things seemed to be really bad. It would be really dangerous to let things go on like this. When they were young, they all went to the front line to fight against the Shadow Clan. They are very clear about the horror of the Shadow Clan. The people of the tribe are terrible, so they will recognize Zhao Hai's words.
After a long time, an elder said: "Okay, suzerain just let it go, we old guys don't know how long we can live, but as long as we are here, no one will dare to disturb the Huofengzong. If someone really wants to touch my Fire Phoenix Sect, they have to step on our corpses, please rest assured, suzerain, so suzerain please let go."
The others also nodded, and at this time they had fully recognized Zhao Hai's status. When Zhao Hai heard what they said, he also stood up and saluted a few people: "So, Lin Ze Just thank you elders for your support, if you elders have no other orders, then I will go down, after all there are many people from other sects who came to watch the ceremony, I have to go down to say hello."
Of course those elders would not stay with Zhao Hai anymore, they all responded, and then Zhao Hai saluted them, turned and left, he didn't show any special expression to Liu Yi, as if he was a Like ordinary Supreme Elders, this made Liu Yi a little disappointed. He had a good relationship with Zhao Hai originally, but he never thought that it would develop into this way in the end.
But he didn't say anything. In fact, Zhao Hai couldn't be blamed for this matter. It was mainly because of him. Sighing, he walked into his room, while the other elders glanced at Liu Yi, but did not say anything. They all knew that Liu Yi was impeached and kicked out of the suzerain position, and the successor It is Zhao Hai, so they can understand Liu Yi's attitude towards Zhao Hai now. If Liu Yi is not like this, then he will feel strange.
