Chapter 31: Baptism
Black Jiao Wood, hard and heavy, similar to fine iron, the tree is like a chi dragon, sinuous and pale, black in color, even the leaves are like ink and jade.
This is a strange wood, hard and heavy, can be made into weapons. At the same time it also has another kind of special feature, after igniting the fire blazing, even if it is a palm-sized piece of so can cook two pots of meat. On weekdays, smelting ores and hammering weapons, it is the best source of fire.
"Hey, open it for me!"
In front of an open space in the stone village, a group of strong men such as Shi Linhu were wheeling huge axes and chopping firewood, and this kind of black auger wood could not be chopped at all by ordinary people.
"Clicking" sounds came from time to time, sometimes there were occasional clanging sounds, bursting out strings of sparks, the wood was just too hard.
In order to baptize Shi Hao, the village made all sorts of preparations, old medicines, poisonous insects, springs, ancient cauldrons, and even the wood for boiling true blood was chosen from the best black auger wood.
On a very large jade stone, Little Dot was bathing, the village people constantly rinsing his body with sweet mountain springs, to seal the purest flesh in the tripod.
Everyone was very serious, and Little Dot was also very solemn, not saying a word, silently preparing.
The mythical beast was carried over early, its body was golden and radiant, its fur was as shiny as golden satin, especially when it was illuminated by the morning sun, it was even more gorgeous and glittering.
And the several meters long red-colored bull's horn, also spread horizontally beside it, as translucent as a red onyx, the red haze flickered, the same as a species of ancient relics, it contained the most precious psychic true blood of the departing fire bull.
The arm of the Devil Ape was similar in length to an adult's arm, and wasn't that huge, but it emitted a monstrous ferocious aura, and it contained the True Blood of the Ancient Times, which was extremely rare and precious.
A black cauldron exuded a simple and ancient atmosphere, on it were the sun, moon, mountains and rivers, birds, animals, fish and insects, as well as scenes of ancient ancestors' sacrifices, it looked mysterious and unfathomable. At this time the tripod has been added a lot of water, underneath the black jiao wood burning, the water rapidly boiling, this is to use the strongest fire to boil the most domineering treasure medicine.
The patriarch looked solemn, personally stood in front of the tripod, will be one and another ancient medicine thrown in, are on the years of the treasure, guarding the great wilderness, herbs are not lacking.
In a short time, the boiling water came from a variety of medicinal fragrance, refreshing, the water changed color.
Then Shi Yunfeng took dozens of clay pots, carefully, one by one to open, the first pot "giggle" rushed out a big purple centipede, more than half a meter long, very scary.
"Snap" sound, the patriarch finger runes flashing, holding a small purple and gold hammer gently knock, the purple centipede head cracked, thrown into the boiling water.
Then, a second clay pot wrapped in thick iron skin was opened, silver light flashed, a pangolin rushed out, only a foot long, all silver white, shiny and bright. It was similarly cracked open and thrown into the boiling water, and after struggling violently, it eventually became silent and became one of the auxiliary medicines.
Dozens of clay pots were opened, with strange little beasts and poisonous insects, all of which were very special, such as small golden snakes that were as long as chopsticks, silver spiders that could fly, and so on.
This pot of water instantly became colorful, and all sorts of weird smells wafted out.
The faces of a group of waifs turned green at that time, this was too scary, so many poisonous insects were densely packed, and there were so many ancient medicines, mixed together, how to look at it gave people an ominous premonition.
Luckily, this tripod was prepared for Little Dot, not to boil them.
As the water gradually boiled, the water inside the tripod became less and less, and in the end, it was almost dried up, the medicinal herbs and various exotic insects were boiled into a paste, this was the auxiliary medicine, which would reduce Little Bit's pain then, and would also help him refine his true blood.
"Dismember the mythical beast and prepare to inject the precious blood into the tripod!" Shi Yunfeng shouted.
The animal's body was cast like gold, dazzling with light, like flames burning, and even after it died, it still had a supreme aura of majesty emanating from it. Its fur is so hard that ordinary iron axes can't cut it at all, and it will emit a string of sparks, clanging, just like iron.
Thankfully, the old mythical beast fought its last battle when its life span ended, and then tried to self-destruct, although unsuccessful, it was already cracked all over, with a trail of blood in its golden divine radiance.
The village people swung their washed-out giant axes along these cracked wounds and cleaved it apart with great difficulty.
Every one of them was shocked, Shi Linhu and Shi Feijiao had five or six thousand pounds of divine power in one swing of their arms, which was already considered extremely powerful and rare in this barren forest. But at this time they were panting and sweating, just chopping along the cracked flesh and blood, all tired into this.
It could be seen how tough the animal's precious body was, beyond people's imagination!
When completely split open, a few old men personally, seize the precious blood, that true blood actually contains part of the golden liquid, brilliantly shaking people's eyes.
This was its preciousness, it was the divine power of the ancient relic species of Mythical Geibi, and the small amount of golden blood hidden in the blood was worth so much that it made even the great tribes red in the eyes!
Although the mythical beast was dead, the blood was coagulated but not solidified, it was very easy to deal with, they took silver vessels to contain the real blood, and the floor was filled with shiny, oversized silver pots, and they were all filled up in the end.
And the matriarch even took it into his own hands, waving a jade knife, covered with runes, rushing out hundreds of haze lights, digging out that most precious heart. It was as big as a basin, light golden in color, containing an incomparably powerful divinity, and when it was moved, it even showered down sheets of golden light rain.
The old patriarch didn't dare to delay, and directly placed this supreme treasure heart into the black cauldron, fearing to waste the mythical beast's divine treasure radiance, while shouting, "Infuse the treasure blood!"
Several burly men brought the huge silverware and poured it into the black cauldron, replacing the spring water, using the precious blood as the juice and mixing it with the medicinal paste.
Under the tripod of the black auger wood fire light flourished, burned this ancestral cauldron roar, tripod wall of the various flood beasts like to come back to life, as if a burst of whistling sound. In the tripod, light golden liquid boiling, that supreme treasure heart is blazing eye-catching, golden light rain eruption, so that the whole tripod are brilliant, the liquid inside turned into golden light, a particularly strong aroma puffed out.
This was the Ancient Relic Species Mythical Beast, whose body was a supreme treasure!
"Boil it and simmer it into a great medicine, Little Bit get ready, it's almost time to enter the tripod." Patriarch Shi Yunfeng said solemnly.
"Understood!" Shi Hao answered loudly.
The blazing fire boiled the great medicine, the fire was fierce, the aroma was rich, and the cauldron became a light golden slurry, and from time to time, bursts of hissing sounds of the ancient relic species were heard, intimidating the mind.
Vaguely, you can see a golden mythical beast emerge, terrorizing the heavens, gulping the sun and moon, making the stars tremble!
The crowd was horrified, all of them sucking in cold air, and many of them could not help but tremble.
"This is the fragment of branding left in the pale golden precious blood by the mythical animal ancestor from the ancient times, becoming the source of divinity for this relict species in front of us." A clan elder sighed after stabilizing his mind.
This wasn't all, the clan members pulled out a few more tendons and put them into the cauldron, and they took out quite a bit of pale golden divine marrow from the precious bones and put it into the black cauldron as well, making the great medicine even more radiant with a rich aroma.
"Patriarch, there are runes on this bone, flowing with mysterious power!" Just then, Shi Feijiao exclaimed.
"What?!" The patriarch and the other older generation figures all quickly rushed over, no longer able to remain calm and collected.
After unraveling the animal's flesh and blood, there was a symbol that appeared on its frontal bone, complex and mysterious, glittering and constantly changing, like the endless stars moving in the sky.
"Surprisingly, it was preserved!" Shi Yunfeng was thrilled to the point of trembling, and then laughed up at the sky, tears almost falling from his eyes.
The mythical beast had self-destructed before its death, its entire body cracking, and according to the village people's speculation, it had destroyed its primordial runes. However, all the ancient relic species would find ways to wear out the marks passed down by their race before they died, avoiding falling into the hands of other races and not allowing them to be lost.
This was also the reason why primordial ferocious bones were rare, and why treasure arts were of immeasurable value!
The truly great clans usually only have one extremely strong treasure art, supplemented by several weak divine abilities, and that's as far as it goes.
The people of the stone village never expected that this time, there was an accident, the Taikoo Fae mythical beast was actually unable to destroy the branded treasure bone in the end due to the fierce battle with the Departing Fire Bull Demon and the Demon Ape King.
"Hide it well, no one can leak the news!" Shi Yunfeng quickly snapped out of it, with a solemn expression on his face, saying, "The heavens have mercy on my clan, to have an extra extremely powerful treasure art, the matter is important, we must keep it a secret."
And then, the patriarch turned his head, urging, "Little Dot quickly enter the tripod, you can perform the baptism. When you come out of the gate, you will be able to comprehend the supreme treasure art of the Ancient Legacy Species Mythical Geibeast!"
"Grandfather Patriarch, I was ready a long time ago!"
After bathing, Little Bit was covered in crystal and flashing runes, looking beautiful and adorable, as he leapt and fell into the boiling cauldron, and the glorious golden liquid instantly drowned him.
"Seal the cauldron!" Shi Yunfeng droned, and the village people fetched the black, huge lid of the tripod, and a few people worked together to cover it tightly.
The other children were all dizzy, their faces turned white, so tightly covered, so boiling water can withstand it, and how to breathe?
The old patriarch glanced at them and said, "When you refine the bone text into every inch of flesh and blood, transformed into a haze and become divine sunlight, you don't need to worry like this, you can invoke the divine essence of heaven and earth to nourish yourselves, then you can enter the water and fire, and it's okay if you don't breathe for a long period of time."
The red-haze flickering precious horns as well as the Devil Ape King's arm had yet to be boiled down, because Shi Yunfeng was worried, afraid that Little Bit wouldn't be able to withstand it, after all, he was still too young, and would have to look at the situation before making a decision.
