The signal turns green.

The awakening ceremony is ready.

Xu Jiu stood up and took a deep breath. Unexpectedly, he was a little nervous.

Through Jing Shu's description, he learned that during the awakening ceremony, many Dharma arrays once found in "unknown" relics will be started, so that he can communicate with ancient sages and obtain a lot of knowledge that is difficult for ordinary people to understand.

This process sounds simple, but the changes in the ritual process are uncontrollable.

Especially the so-called "ancient sage", there is no clear definition of him or it in the secret society.

To put it bluntly, those who improve the awakening ceremony only know that doing so can achieve the result of communicating with the ancient sages, but they don't understand why the ancient sages appear, let alone what the origin of the ancient sages is.

Not to mention that Xu Jiu was the first person to carry out the awakening ceremony on the premise of having a certain special ability.

"Accidents may occur during the ceremony, and the secret society is not responsible for it."

This is the person in charge of the secret society who informed Xu Jiu of the risk in advance.

In fact, there have been many failures in the awakening ceremony within the secret society in recent years. They have never said that they can guarantee 100% success.

Put the necklace that may prevent energy flow in Jingshu's hand for the time being. Xu Jiu stood in front of the door and watched the former turn into the corridor on the left.

She will watch the flow in the main control room.

During the ceremony, only the parties are allowed to exist in the venue.

The footsteps went away, and soon Xu Jiu was the only one left in this place. He looked up at the green signal light, but the door in front of him was never opened.

"Pa ~"

Just when Xu Jiu thought the door was broken, there was a soft sound behind him,

The light suddenly dimmed. Looking back, I saw that the lights in the whole corridor were going out.

Not long after, the signal lights on the door beam went dark.

Because it is underground, there is no saying of natural light. As soon as the light goes dark, the surroundings immediately fall into complete darkness.

For ordinary people, I'm afraid most of them will be frightened at this time. Xu Jiu stays quietly in place and even converges his original perception spread around all the time.

Because the door in front of me has been opened, and there are small lights embedded in the soil on the ground.

you 're right.

With these small lights that can only illuminate the surrounding areas, Xu Jiu found that the ground at the bottom of the secret society is actually full of soft soil, and his feet can still leave marks.

With the financial resources of the secret society, it is not difficult to lay the floor here, but if they don't, there is only one possibility. This is a specially arranged area.

Xu Jiu quickly realized that they were not turning off the lights for themselves. They didn't want to see the surrounding layout, but the ceremony needed to do so.

Because of this, he stopped perceiving his surroundings.

Walking along the small lights on the ground, there was a faint whisper in the surrounding darkness.

Suddenly, a dark shadow flashed on the small lamp in front, and the wind blew in my ears, like something hiding in the shadow to breathe.

They are watching Xu Jiu, and his steps are more and more calm.

After about 20 steps, a stone platform two meters long and one meter wide appeared in front of the small lamp. When Xu Jiu approached, the edge position left prompt handwriting with phosphor.

'lie down', 'wait'

Xu Jiu tidied up his clothes, did not hesitate, and directly lay on the stone platform, waiting for the beginning of the ceremony.

Totally enclosed main control room.

Several secretaries who presided over the ceremony were also watching the situation in the venue, just through night vision cameras.

Even if the main control room is only a wall away from the site, they still don't have the idea of opening a window, as if there are some invisible existence on the other side, which can only be peeped by these cold machines.

"Mr. Xu arrived at the ceremony platform, and the ceremony officially began, ready to inject source energy."

Wrapped in bandages, the man with only a pair of pale eyes straightened up and issued instructions in a hoarse voice.

Beside him stood several other mystics, including Jing Shu, but they kept a distance from the bandage.

There was a decadent smell on the bandage man, as if he had been eroded. At the moment, some of his bandages showed some earthy yellow, which looked very strange.

He himself didn't care much about the combing of his colleagues, and turned to the stone plate in the center of the console.

Unlike the high-tech equipment that can be seen everywhere in the main control room, this stone plate seems to have just been brought back from a relic, and the surface is full of mottled marks left by years of erosion.

Its diameter is nearly 1.5 meters. There are fist sized pits in the center and on the edge. The inside has been filled with source energy spar, and there are crisscross gullies between these pits.

The gullies are connected with each other to form one special symbol after another. There are echoes between the symbols, which are distributed on the stone plate with a specific law, and finally form a mysterious whole.

Several mystics occupied specific positions around the stone plate, and Jing Shu was not involved.

She has been a mystic for less than two months and is not qualified to contact the contents related to the awakening ceremony.

However, due to the current shortage of manpower, she was also assigned to work.

Wrap the necklace around her right wrist and go to the original position of the bandage. When they start the ceremony, Jing Shu needs to stand here and give the information in the ceremony field through the image presented on the screen.

As the host, the bandage man should first raise his hand to Yuanjing in the center of the stone plate and begin to recite the mantra. The next few people also put their right hand on the top of the crystal stone on the outer edge of the plate.

Jing Shu looks at the screen and seems to feel that the stone plate is too hard. Her hands are behind her head. Xu Jiu, who is in a daze with her legs crossed, purses her mouth, as if she has noticed something. Suddenly she turns around to see the position of the stone plate.

Zi ~ Zi~

The light on the top of the main control room flickered suddenly, with uncertain light and shade.

The bright incandescent light somehow got a layer of obscure luster. The bandage singing the mantra began to have uncontrollable spasms. The yellowing bandages on both sides of the neck and cheeks fluctuated, and something seemed to grow underneath.

The bandage man didn't respond to this. For example, he knew that his body would be abnormal, but he suddenly pressed down the palm of the original crystal suspended in the center of the stone platform.

The sharp tip of the spar pierced the flesh and several blood beads slipped.

At the same time.

With the rising tone of the spell, filamentous black lines began to flow into the light blue spar.

Next second.

The surface of the spar began to overflow with blue light mixed with black and red silk lines, which was injected into the gullies that originally existed on the stone plate, so as to spread to the rest of the stone plate.

The mantra on the stone plate lit up one after another.

The crystal stone under the control of several other mystics burst into light.

Jingshu turns back and looks at the monitoring screen again.

The ceremony has begun.

Energy is surging.

Xu Jiu instinctively noticed that the surrounding environment was abnormal.

For the smooth progress of the ceremony, Xu Jiu deliberately relaxed himself.

Shrink the energy in the beads to prevent their interference from leading to the failure of the ceremony.

Xu Jiu turned his head and glanced over the row of small lights on the ground leading to the corridor where the elevator was located.

They went out.

There is no light in the whole space, and even the sound of breathing is very clear.

Frankly, Xu Jiu has never experienced such a state. When his body collapsed in his previous life, he didn't even have time to react.

Lying flat in the center of the stone platform, Xu Jiu didn't close his eyes, but chose to look at the darkness.

To be exact, look at the existence in the dark.

Since he had just arrived at the stone platform and lay down, strange whispers and the sound of some object wriggling came from time to time in the nearby shadow.

Not only that, but with the surge of energy, these sounds are still increasing.

Xu Jiu wanted to see what was hidden in the ceremony, but he tried several times and found nothing.

Only louder and louder voices could be heard, which made Xu Jiu suspicious for a time.

Are they approaching?

Or is it because of the extremely quiet environment?

Similar thoughts did not stay in her mind for too long, because Xu Jiu found that the stone platform under her body had changed at some time.

The light blue lines spread like fireworks from one end of the stone platform. When they reached the middle position, they began to outline one mantra after another he had never seen before.

After a while, several Dharma arrays with overlapping edges appeared on the stone platform that looked ordinary before

wait.

How did you see that?

Xu Jiu was stunned in situ. He clearly remembered that he should have been lying on the stone platform just now. His vision should be aimed at the ceiling of the site. No matter how, he would not suddenly see the stone platform behind him.

He doesn't have eyes behind his head!

What's your situation now?

Xu Jiu subconsciously extends his hand to the position where he lay not long ago. Unexpectedly, he doesn't touch anything, but this action makes Xu Jiu have a new discovery.

The surface of the stone platform clearly glittered with light, but when he stretched out his hand, it was not reflected, and even the outline could not be seen!

A brief meditation.

Xu Jiu soon fell on the stone platform like a toad, and then dropped his eyes to see his chest.

Still found nothing.

The light can't shine on his body!

Xu Jiu was thrilled by the sudden abnormal change, but it was not too flustered because he knew in advance that the awakening ceremony had begun. It should only be the change in the process of the ceremony.

Now that the ceremony has begun to operate, will the surrounding environment change in addition to kaishitai?

Xu Jiu turned and looked around.

Sure enough, the originally dark place has been a lot of

Xu Jiu didn't know how to describe those bodies. Their forms were very strange. They had no specific appearance, only the light gray outline printed on the dark curtain.

There are not many human shapes. The only two or three look like the exaggerated human shapes in the famous painting cry in previous lives.

More are some amorphous, which are changing in different forms every second, but their mouths and eyes are still growing on their surface.

Of course, it's just a simple outline. Xu Jiu is not sure whether those organs are really useful.

Turning around and sitting cross legged, Xu Jiu looked directly at these "aliens" approaching him, waiting for them to change more.

Until they came from all directions and gathered around the stone platform.

Xu Jiu's ears were filled with all kinds of noisy sounds, which began to converge in one place and merge into the same voice. The intonation gradually became longer and longer, and the voice became more and more distant.

Xu Jiu couldn't understand the meaning contained in it.

However, he soon found that these "aliens" also showed signs of integration, and the surrounding darkness also showed some light at this moment, and the pure white light was very obvious in the dark.

It's just not as dazzling as imagined, but gives people a dreamlike illusion.

The spirit fell into a trance. Xu Jiu realized that the most critical part of the awakening ceremony should be this stage.

With his strong soul, he reluctantly insisted in the chaotic state of mind. He saw creatures in loose robes appear in the white light.

"No wonder they are called ancient sages by the secret society. This outfit alone does look like that."

Think about it, Xu Jiu always feels that there is a trace of something wrong.

If the person in front of us is the person of that era to which the site of the special area belongs, how can he be involved with the evil curse?

From Jing Shu's description and the characteristics of the profession of mystic, the awakening ceremony was meant to be a curse ceremony, and the scene in front of Xu Jiu was undoubtedly beyond Xu Jiu's expectation.

Or is this just the beginning? The inheritance of knowledge or the awakening of the soul will not really begin until your spirit is completely in a trance?

Xu Jiu insisted for a little while, but he still couldn't see the whole picture of the figure in the white light, so he chose to give up, lie back on the stone platform, relax and let the awakening ceremony continue.

Just at this time.

The barking of a malicious dog suddenly sounded!

Just closed his eyes wide open, Xu Jiu remembered the voice.

That evil spirit found here!

Having had previous experience at home, Xu Jiu didn't care about the awakening ceremony and immediately began to prepare for the sudden attack.

However, this time, evil deeds were obviously prepared.

The process of the awakening ceremony undoubtedly put Xu Jiu's soul into a very special state to some extent. Before the crystal of sage had time to resist, the evil invasion had come.

Drop drop drop~

The alarm rang through the whole main control room. The mystics around the stone plate raised their heads in surprise and looked at a half man high mechanical instrument on the other side.

This machine is not made by modern technology, but a special creation excavated from a relic like a stone plate.

Its function is very simple. It detects the power state in a specific area, and the alarm at the moment means that the power in the ritual field is running wild.

Generally speaking, this state means the failure of the awakening ceremony. They have to rush in and rescue people immediately, otherwise the souls of the parties will collapse completely.

The problem is that the operation of the stone plate shows that the awakening ceremony went very smoothly and there were no accidents at all.

This contradictory abnormal phenomenon never appeared, and the mystics present were at a loss for a time.
