Chapter 832 - Ceremony
The devotees of the White Lotus Sect were outside the building, completely surrounding the altar. Clad in white robes, they stared at the building with reverence. Most of them were so excited that their hands were trembling.
A gentle wind blew past, causing the white ribbons on their foreheads to flutter in the wind. It looked like a sea of white just outside the altar.
All of them were looking at Bai Lingmiao, who was now in the Heavenly Altar. She was getting nervous with so many eyes on her.
She forced herself to calm down and focused on what she needed to do. Their mission was related to the death of the people in the world. They couldn’t be reckless.
“Don’t worry. I managed to invite a powerful individual this time. We can succeed.”
Bai Lingmiao nodded after Xuan Pin assured her that everything would be alright. She calmed down a little.
The Surveillance Bureau naturally prepared everything for such a ceremony. You just need to focus on yourself.
Bai Lingmiao kept reassuring herself again and again.
Everyone was here, and nothing had happened yet. Time slowly passed as everyone painstakingly waited.
Just as the sun was in the middle of the sky, a bell tolled from the distance. Xuan Pin revealed three sets of arms and started making seals with all of them.
The devotees of the White Lotus Sect chanted deeply. The ceremony was starting in earnest now.
“Start the ceremony!” Huangfu Tiangang, who was now blind, pointed his sword at the sky. The eight Daoists at the smaller altars waved their cherry-wood swords and scattered red talismans into the air.
Purple flames lit up each of the altars, instantly engulfing Shangjing in a specific energy. The people of Shangjing all started chanting involuntarily.
Xuan Pin waved his arms and sent illusions throughout each corner of the Liang Kingdom. She instructed everyone to start chanting.
Everyone who could speak began to chant, no matter what county they were from.
With the allure of being rewarded with food, everyone chanted earnestly. Soon, everyone in the Liang Kingdom was chanting. The entire Liang Kingdom temporarily became part of the White Lotus Sect. It was the largest ceremony ever conducted.
Bai Lingmiao, who was in the array\'s center, felt something unusual happening. She appeared closer to the invisible thing she had always faintly felt.
As the Twelve Merit Jade Lotus was placed on the bronze tree, it emitted a bright white light that illuminated everything around it.
Bai Lingmiao held her breath and sat underneath the bronze tree. She closed her eyes and started chanting, “Heavenly Mater, the people of this world need you. We are here to help if you are encountering any dangers!”
Xuan Pin began chanting, joining the chants of the White Lotus Sect and smoothly slithering in like an eel.
“??????????????????????????????”
Bai Lingmiao didn’t know what happened next since she was focused entirely on the white light. She tried her hardest to get in contact with the Heavenly Mater.
In the sea of chants, Bai Lingmiao was already infinitely close to the Heavenly Mater, but there was a barrier barring her from reaching her.
In the past, she would’ve met the Heavenly Mater already, but something was currently blocking her. Time passed, and the situation did not change. In fact, it became worse—she couldn’t sense where the Heavenly Mater was.
Bai Lingmiao refused to give up in that field of chaos. She worked harder to get close to the Heavenly Mater, and her efforts paid off! She faintly sensed the Heavenly Mater.
She kept calling out for the Heavenly Mater, but it seemed as though the latter was dead. A veil separated them, and the Heavenly Mater didn’t move one bit.
“???????????” Xuan Pin’s chanting could be heard, bringing clarity to Bai Lingmiao\'s thoughts and making her quicken her pace.
Not only that, Bai Lingmiao began seeing threads on her body that were connected to the Heavenly Mater.
Bai Lingmiao raised all four of her arms and pulled on the threads to approach the Heavenly Mater.
She slowly got closer and saw that the Heavenly Mater was covered in large blobs of darkness. They were the reason the Heavenly Mater could not move!
Bai Lingmiao gingerly touched a dark blob and felt an intense desire for death surging into her. It washed away everything within her except for the notion of suicide.
Bai Lingmiao opened her eyes listlessly. She saw that she was not in the Heavenly Altar anymore. The bronze tree had disappeared too.
The conjoined lotus, still glowing white, was causing her to float. It didn’t allow her to fall.
Everything was reversed now, with the skies below her and the earth above her. A massive jade door appeared in front of her like a mountain.
However, Bai Lingmiao thought nothing was important anymore. She grabbed her hairpin and tried to stab her own neck. The sharp pin had almost sunk into her white neck when a beast claw covered in white fur grabbed her hands.
“Li Sui!” The Second Deity bared her fangs and shouted at Xuan Pin, who was blocking off the other evil entities.
“We have an issue here! Where’s your helper?! I thought you said you found some powerful allies!”
There were evil entities everywhere that surrounded Baiyu Capital. It was chaos—the evil entities wanted the Twelve Merit Jade Lotus and tried to approach it incessantly.
Just then, several rifts shot upwards from below. The rifts tore the evil entities apart.
Li Huowang flew upwards and stabbed one of his swords into the gate to anchor himself in place.
Xuan Pin’s ally was naturally Li Huowang.
“What’s going on?! Why are you guys so close to the Baiyu Capital for no reason? Don’t you know that it\'s dangerous here?” Li Huowang shouted at them as he sensed the gazes coming from the other side of the Ox Tail Gate.
Xuan Pin waved her arms and disintegrated the evil entities in front of her before explaining, “This place is closer to the Baiyu Capital!”
“Li Huowang, help us now!” The Second Deity growled as she stopped Bai Lingmiao from biting her own tongue by grabbing both of her jaws.
