309. Chapter 309: Sacrifice to Heaven Ceremony

"Hahahaha! Yu Hao, you've finally cultivated to Level 20, this is truly great! It wasn't in vain that Brother spent so much effort helping you." Skydream Ice Silkworm laughed heartily in Huo Yu Hao's mind.

"It was clearly all my own diligent cultivation that allowed me to reach Level 20, okay..."

Huo Yu Hao muttered secretly in his heart.

However, Skydream's help to him was still very great, especially that powerful million-year soul ring; although the soul ring was still sealed, his first soul ring could already exert the power of a 2000-year soul ring! This was already very powerful.

It was precisely the spiritual power boost brought by this soul ring that allowed him to gain huge convenience in Soul Tool research, greatly improving the success rate of making Soul Tools.

He was now a Level 1.5 Soul Tool Master; as long as he could raise his soul power to the Great Soul Master level, he could go to the Soul Tool Master Association for certification and officially become a Level 2 Soul Tool Master.

And as long as he became a Level 2 Soul Tool Master, he could earn a large amount of Gold Soul Coins by making Soul Tools, be self-sufficient, and no longer have to work hard selling grilled fish every day...

"Yu Hao, I've already arranged it for you. Get ready, we'll set off for the Extreme North today. I promised you that as soon as you reached Level 20, I would give you a heaven-defying opportunity! Let you change your destiny!"

Skydream Ice Silkworm urged impatiently.

"Ah, the Extreme North, that's too far. My vacation is only one month; if I can't come back within the specified time, I'll definitely be expelled..." Huo Yu Hao was instantly stunned.

A distance of thousands of miles; he would lose half his life just getting there.

Where would he have the strength to obtain a soul ring? And his martial soul was of the spiritual attribute; shouldn't he go to obtain a spiritual attribute soul ring? The Extreme North was mostly ice attribute soul rings, right? "Oh, don't worry about it, just hurry up and go. At most 20 days for the round trip; 10 days is enough for me to help you obtain your second soul ring, and there's also a big fortune. When has Brother ever lied to you?"

Skydream Ice Silkworm urged.

He was already impatient to see his Little Bing Bing.

Thinking about her day and night for hundreds of thousands of years, it had almost become his heart disease.

However, he knew that the Ice Emperor's great tribulation was coming, and with the Ice Emperor's talent, she would definitely not be able to pass the great tribulation.

Plus, he also knew that an existence with the Ice Emperor's cultivation would never be willing to fall just like that; as long as there was a glimmer of hope, she would definitely grasp it tightly.

So this time, he felt the success rate of persuading the Ice Emperor was at least 99%.

Of course, if the Ice Emperor really turned heartless, then he couldn't help it; he could only admit his bad luck and go to the afterlife with Huo Yu Hao...

"Alright, alright... then I'll be as fast as possible..."

Huo Yu Hao also knew that he had no other choice now.

Although even without changing his destiny, he could still enter the second year of the Soul Tool Department to study, but this meant he had completely given up on the Soul Master path.

It also meant that he might never be able to avenge his mother in this life! Never be able to defeat that man...

This was something he absolutely could not accept!

So, as long as there was a chance to become stronger, he would grasp it tightly and never give up! "Mm, that's right. Don't worry, Brother is tied to you, sharing life and death; Brother couldn't possibly harm you~" Skydream Ice Silkworm was very satisfied with this.

At the same time.

Sun Moon Empire.

After a month of preparation and anticipation.

The population of the entire Mingdu had skyrocketed several times over.

Most of them were high-level officials and top nobles from all over the Sun Moon Empire. After all, the Sacrifice to Heaven Ceremony could be said to be one of the Sun Moon Empire's biggest grand ceremonies, and every resident of the Sun Moon Empire would pay attention to it.

Generally speaking, the Sacrifice to Heaven Ceremony required at least half a year of preparation time, but because of the Micro Card, coupled with Bai Zhou's order, all departments of the entire empire were operating for this Sacrifice to Heaven Ceremony, which was why it was ready in just one month.

Although it consumed countless financial, material, and human resources, it was all worth it.

Early in the morning, a large number of people had already poured out of Mingdu and arrived in the suburbs, preparing to welcome the arrival of this grand national ceremony.

On all the main roads of Mingdu, soldiers in bright armor stood on both sides, with a post every three steps and a sentry every five steps, full of murderous intent.

Under the pressure of the army, the people walked neatly and orderly toward the southern suburbs.

The scale of this Sacrifice to Heaven Ceremony was extremely grand, unprecedented.

The Sun Moon Empire directly mobilized an army of over one hundred thousand, and even the Hand of the Nation was all mobilized.

This made the defense of the border extremely weakened.

Of course, if the three empires of the original Douluo Continent came to attack the Sun Moon Empire at this time, they would very likely succeed.

However, if that were really the case, Bai Zhou would also be very happy.

Because he was just looking for an excuse to attack the other three empires...

Although his home was also over there.

But he didn't care; anyway, with his current strength, taking down the three empires was easy.

He only needed the empire's national fortune power and wouldn't slaughter anyone; even if a war really broke out, it wouldn't have much impact on ordinary people.

Even in this era of information lag, if a blitzkrieg broke out and the three empires were destroyed, most ordinary people might still be in the dark.

In the southern suburbs, a huge altar had been built half a month ago. The altar itself was a strangely shaped platform; the left side was circular, and the right side was crescent-shaped, symbolizing the sun and moon, which was the symbol of the Sun Moon Empire.

The circular altar covered an area of over ten thousand square meters and was ten zhang high, entirely built of granite, shaped like a seven-layer cake.

All seven layers of platforms from bottom to top were red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, and purple respectively, and there were eight stone steps around the altar that could lead to the top one by one.

This altar had long existed and had been passed down for thousands of years! The Sun Moon Empire's Imperial Family and regime had changed countless generations, yet no one had ever dared to touch this altar... at most, they just repaired it around it and built some other buildings.

The sky was now completely bright, and the sunlight shone on the magnificent Sun Moon Sacrifice to Heaven Platform, emitting a seven-colored halo, which was particularly spectacular.

Outside the Sun Moon Sacrifice to Heaven Platform, the people had long been surrounded by the army under the command of the army; there were millions of people, dense and endless.

The sun was high.

From far away, from the direction of Mingdu, a team composed entirely of bright yellow slowly came toward the direction of the Sun Moon Sacrifice to Heaven Platform.

Wherever this team passed, soldiers cleared the way.

At the very front was a huge dragon carriage carried by one thousand and twenty-four people.

The bright yellow silk and satin on the dragon carriage had patterns of ten thousand dragons galloping, but in all the important core positions, there were patterns of the sun and moon competing for brilliance, which was exactly the dragon carriage of the Sun Moon Empire's Emperor, Xu Tianhe.
