"Abba, you're late!" Ji Hao looked at the fiery light, which was flying towards him from afar, and gave a simple and honest smile.
"Great ancestors, please accept these insignificant offerings of the Fire Crow Clan's descendants!" Ji Hao raised his hands high, and loudly incanted the incantation that had been passed down from generation to generation among the Fire Crow Clan's Maguspriests.
"Their skins, their bones, their blood, their flesh, their souls, their spirits, their everything, will all belong to you!" Behind Ji Hao, a raging fiery light was blazing; within the fiery light, a Fire Crow was hovering and leaping, silently cawing towards the sky.
On the altar, within the dense golden fiery light, the translucent three-legged Gold Crow slightly opened its long and narrow eyes.
Countless extremely thin beams of golden light darted out from its slightly narrowed eyes. The three-legged Gold Crow looked down at the heads of the clans on the altar, suddenly opened its eyes widely, then let out an extremely high-pitched caw that was filled with joy.
Nine Fire Crows were standing beside the altar, cawing one after another, flapping their wings and dancing around the altar with solemn expressions. The gigantic Fire Crows were moving slowly and elegantly, like nobles attending the most sacred ceremony; every single move of theirs was filled with indescribable mysteriousness.
Along with the dancing of the nine Fire Crows, the Fire Crow that Ji Xia was riding on suddenly let out a caw, and abruptly stopped. This Fire Crow spread its wings, its eyes were blazing with fiery light, and it was looking at the altar with an incomparably solemn expression. The fiery light surrounding its body had transformed into a transparent ball of light, tightly locking Ji Xia in it.
The 'nine suns above the sky', the secret blood-offering ceremony, was the most sacred ceremony that had been passed down from the bloodline of the Fire Crows; they would never allow anyone to interrupt this sacred ceremony. Even Ji Xia didn't have this privilege.
Ji Hao incanted the spell, and an invisible power gathered from the air around him. The low and muffled voice of the spell gradually became high-pitched and resonant under the influence of the invisible power. Gradually, the spell reached the sky, and came from behind the clouds. Muffled thunders came from the sky, one after another, the clouds were shattered by the invisible sound waves, exposing the clear blue sky.
A floating mountain, which was miles in radius, slowly drifted over Ji Hao's head.
The mysterious and invisible power in the ancient sacrificial incantation gently patted the mountain, and the floating mountain silently shattered into pieces. A large amount of dust was blown away by the mountain wind, fluttering in the air.
The sacrificial offerings on and around the altar began to burn silently. Their blood, flesh, and souls were all burning at a high speed. A strong, bloody heat lingered in the air. The gigantic Gold Crow silhouette on the altar slowly opened its beak and inhaled this strange heat.
The semi-transparent Golden Crow projection gradually became more solid, as if it had returned to a body of flesh and blood. A terrible pressure came from the Gold Crow's body. Stone, Treeman, Heng Luo and the others, who were watching from the hillside far away, all staggered and fell to the ground, rolled on the ground, but couldn't get up no matter how hard they tried.
Even the two old treemen, who were over ten-thousand years old, let out shrill roars and fled away as fast as they could. These two treemen were definitely peak-level Senior Magi, but they couldn't even bear a slight trace of the pressure released from the Gold Crow's silhouette.
Ji Hao couldn't imagine how powerful this Gold Crow was.
A legendary Magus King? A Divine Magus? Or even more powerful?
This legendary creature, even though he had fallen and was now only a wisp of his soul, which was worshiped in the Holy Land of the Fire Crow Clan, could still burst out with a dazzling brilliance, which would amaze the whole world, as long as he was given a chance.
The thousands of feet tall Gold Crow silhouette stood steadily on the altar, slowly raised its pair of wings. Countless extremely thin beams of golden light spread out from its golden wings, condensed into nine huge golden spell symbols, and slowly flew into the sky.
Tens of thousands of feet high from the ground, the golden spell symbols flashed across the air and disappeared. Ji Hao clearly saw that these nine golden spell symbols seemed to be flying towards the sun.
In the next moment, the sun in the sky burst into a dazzling light, along with which, a dreadful heat descended from the sky. The jungle suddenly became incomparably bright; the mountains, the trees and the ground seemed to have become transparent under this snow-white light. Everything in the world seemed to have turned into a pure, flawless, glass-like substance under the light.
This kind of light couldn't be stopped by any substance.
The purest, most primitive power of light and heat fell from the sky, covering the hundreds of feet in diameter altar that Ji Hao had set up.
Wisps of heat continuously drilled into Ji Hao's body. Before, tens of meridians inside Ji Hao's body were blazing, as if they were burning; however, as the strange heat continuously drilled into Ji Hao's body, more and more complicated meridians inside Ji Hao's body lit up, and a faint fiery light gradually gushed out from these meridians.
Ji Hao was enlightened. The 'nine suns in the sky' and the secret blood-offering magic had returned. The Gold Crow had attracted a magical power, which was activating the source of power that had been lost by the Fire Crow Clan's clansmen during the past countless years.
Ji Hao's eyes and body were boiling hot; the sphere of Gold Crow's breath inside his chest had become denser and more condensed. The great heat quietly gathered on the surface of Ji Hao's skin, condensing into numerous faint, transparent, feather-like, delicate spell symbols.
Unconsciously, Ji Hao had gained the fourth special ability, which only existed in the legends of the Fire Crow Clan, the 'Gold Crow Armour'!
This was a defensive magic. The feather-like spell symbols condensed by the power of the Gold Crow Armour had a great defensive power, and also had a great auxiliary effect on flying and running; it could double the speed of the fiery wings.
Mr Crow, who was standing on Ji Hao's shoulder, let out a happy caw as well. He raised his wings high, and countless extremely thin beams of golden light darted towards him from all directions, drilling into his body.
Suddenly, the three feathers on Mr Crow's head began to burn; the black feathers turned into a faint golden colour. After that, Mr Crow's claws began to burn as well; the black-red claws turned into a beautiful golden colour, as if they had been gilded.
The thin Gold Crow bloodline inside Mr Crow's body had been strengthened largely, which gave him a greater possibility in the future.
The nine gigantic Fire Crows, who were surrounding the altar, were even more excited. They began to gulp the light that was falling from the sky, and as they swallowed, their bodies began to burn as well. One or two feathers on their wings and tails began to burn, then turned into a faint golden colour.
Same as Mr Crow, the Gold Crow bloodline inside these nine gigantic Fire Crows had been strengthened as well. Their powers hadn't been improved immediately, but their future would certainly be much better than the other Fire Crows.
The other Fire Crows around them began to caw; they had all gained some benefits, more or less.
However, the one who had gained the most benefits was undoubtedly the Gold Crow silhouette, who was standing on the altar. The Gold Crow's body, which was dim and translucent, had now turned into a pure gold statue, and was glowing with a holy golden light.
The Gold Crow slightly nodded to Ji Hao, then let out a happy caw, transformed into a sphere of fiery light, and quickly disappeared into the air.
A strong gust of wind blew past, and the altar and the ground on which it was set up turned into white powder at the same time. The powder was blown away by the mountain wind.
