Seven Strings in Dreams

Only if you can perform a witch dance completely without any mistakes can you proceed to the next step. If any mistakes occur, you cannot proceed.

At the same time as Monk started, Zhuji and Linlang also started to dance the witch dance. They were dancing a relatively simple witch dance, but it took the same amount of time as Monk.

Among the two of them, only Linlang completed the entire witch dance.

Zhu Ji had jumped most of the way when she accidentally made a mistake, spat out a mouthful of blood, and then retreated.

When Zhuji withdrew, the pressure fell on Linlang.

They performed the witch dance not only to know the exact time of sacrifice, but also to relieve Monk's pressure.

Monk went against the will of heaven and changed his fate, and would suffer punishment from heaven and earth, which is heavenly punishment, usually in the form of thunder.

If Linlang and the others could also successfully complete the witch dance at the same time, they would be able to help Monk share a small part of the punishment power.

They have no ability to stop the coming of divine punishment, but they can choose to stand together with Monk.

Besides, Zhuji and his group were in the mountain protection town, so even if divine punishment came, there was a mountain protection formation to support them.

Unfortunately, they can only share a small part of the divine punishment, and most of the power will eventually fall on the high priest.

Going against the will of heaven and changing one's fate is not the right way after all, and one will inevitably pay the price.

Monk will only save those who are still alive at the moment. He has no way to save those who have already left.

Any excessive demand will only lead to more serious consequences, some of which even Monk cannot afford.

Monk completed the strange witch dance in the storm, and a purple lightning bolt struck down towards the top of the mountain where Monk was.

At the same time, a relatively weak, even negligible lightning bolt struck the mountain protection formation.

After a while, another bolt of lightning will fall.

Thunder from the sky struck down one after another, as if it was going to split the mountain apart.

Every bolt of thunder tugs at the hearts of countless people.

There were strange phenomena in the sky, which even alarmed many old monsters who had not appeared in the world for a long time.

Unfortunately, in the face of divine punishment, they could only watch from afar.

If they break in at this time, the thunder will simply regard them as people who come to cause trouble.

Once you are targeted by thunder, there is nowhere to escape.

The mountain protection formation is very magical. Originally, the mountain protection formation was already in disrepair. Ever since Monk brought his subordinates to settle here and built Henglan Villa, Monk began to repair the formation step by step.

Monk was not sure whether these formations were naturally formed or man-made.

However, this place is neither too far nor too close to the altar, hidden enough, suitable for living, and has good feng shui.

Monk's decision was very wise. The mountain protection formation was indeed extraordinary and could even withstand some thunder disasters.

This was something Munch had never dared to ask for at the beginning.

Monk was worried that once the mountain protection formation was damaged, it would be difficult to repair, so he seldom used the formation.

Monk was unwilling to reveal this trump card unless it was absolutely necessary.

If anything really happened to Monk, once the mountain protection formation was damaged, no one among them would be able to repair it.

Although the world of immortal cultivation is full of geniuses, there are not many who have achieved certain accomplishments in formation. Some masters of this art do not like to enter the world, and some do not like to be involved in too many causes and effects.

What's more, it is impossible for outsiders to live in the Wenyu tribe forever, and they cannot be separated from the mountain protection formation.

Monk also thought about taking the mountain protection formation for himself, but he couldn't find the reason why the formation appeared.

It can be said that Monk discovered this formation, or it can be said that the formation chose Monk.

Monk can only sense the existence of the formation through special means, and even control the protection range of the formation, but Monk cannot take the formation away at all.

That's why Monk called it the Mountain Protection Array. Perhaps it only belongs to this mountain range and not to anyone else.

A place like Shuangling Island is not a unique place. Even though there is a famous academy here, not many children from aristocratic families join.

For some ancient immortal cultivation families, Shuangling Island is just a drop in the ocean and is really insignificant.

Only in the secular world does Shuangling Island seem to have some fame.

Shuangling Island is famous, not because there are many geniuses in cultivation here, but simply because the pearls, red corals, giant clams and other rare treasures here are well-known far and wide and are rarely seen.

Maybe the people on Shuangling Island are used to seeing these things, but when they are outside, even in the imperial palace, they are loved by concubines.

Shuangling Island is only a slightly famous island on this continent. As for the tribes on the island, only those who have been there have some understanding of them.

Many tribes on Shuangling Island do not like to deal with other foreign tribes.

It’s just that some merchants like to travel between Qinglong Kingdom and Shuangling Island.

The Qinglong Kingdom is the empire closest to Shuangling Island.

Qinglong Kingdom is one of the four great empires, and Shuangling Island is closest to the small town on the southern border of Qinglong Kingdom.

In addition to the merchants from Qinglong Kingdom, the largest number of merchants coming to Shuangling Island are from Xuanwu Kingdom.

Xuanwu Kingdom is also one of the four great empires. It is said that there are many rivers there. If you look from above, it seems that the entire Xuanwu Kingdom is made up of countless islands.

Xuanwu Kingdom and Shuangling Island communicated with each other by water.

The people of Xuanwu country are good at swimming and are also very beautiful.

As for the Suzaku Kingdom, the people on Shuangling Island had only heard of them but had never had any interaction with them.

There are also some people from the White Tiger Country who come to Shuangling Island by water, but they are very rare.

It is precisely because of this that Monk is somewhat suspicious of Meng Xianyu's background, but despite his doubts, he still admires Meng Xianyu very much.

There is not the slightest characteristic of the White Tiger people in Meng Xianyu, nor does she have any features of the Black Tortoise people. Instead, she has some of the temperament of the Blue Dragon people, and her appearance is more like that of the people of the Blue Dragon country.

The people of these four empires can generally be distinguished by their appearance.

The people of Suzaku Country have bronze skin, hot bodies, peculiar clothes, a peculiar scent on their bodies, and they like to decorate their clothes with many ornaments.

The White Tiger Country is located in the north. It is said that it snows in three out of the four seasons and the climate is very cold.

They worship the colors black and white, have fair skin, and are often covered in thick animal fur.

Even when they travel, they like to wear simple clothes and don't like fancy clothes.

As for the people of Qinglong Kingdom and Xuanwu Kingdom, it is difficult to distinguish them by their appearance.

Their skin color is yellowish, not as fair and transparent as the people of the White Tiger Kingdom.

Some poor people who work on the farm all year round have darker skin.

Those princes and nobles, especially those ladies and young masters who never go out of the house and never do housework, still have very fair skin.

The biggest difference between the people of the two countries may be in their temperament and clothing.

Women in Qinglong Kingdom do not have a high status, and the preference for boys over girls is even more serious.

In Qinglong Country, women will be gossiped about if they show up in public.

The people of Qinglong Country have relatively mild tempers and conservative thinking, and the words loyalty and filial piety are deeply rooted.

In contrast, women in Xuanwu Kingdom can hold up half the sky, can serve as officials, and have more open minds.

As for clothing, it is very cool and not conservative at all. You can wear whatever you want.

Among the four great empires, the one with the strongest female rights is of course Suzaku. After all, under the rule of Empress Suzaku, men are usually oppressed.

In the Suzaku Kingdom, no matter how outstanding a man is, he will never be able to succeed.

Even practitioners cannot escape the control of fate.

They were destined to be suppressed by the women of Suzaku Country from birth, a permanent bloodline suppression.

The Xuanwu Kingdom followed closely behind. In the Xuanwu Kingdom, women could marry several husbands, and men could have many wives and concubines.

Xuanwu State was ruled by the emperor and empress. They advocated monogamy, but did not force their people to do so. However, to inherit the throne, one could only be monogamous and could not have other wives or concubines.

If he chose to take a concubine, he would lose the chance to become a monarch. He could not even divorce her afterwards.

These are the laws passed down from our ancestors, which cannot be changed, let alone falsified.

Therefore, in Xuanwu Kingdom, the most ridiculous thing is that many princes and grandchildren are unwilling to inherit the throne. They wish to stay away from the court and become a leisurely prince who enjoys a happy and carefree life.

The people of Xuanwu State prefer to take a break from their busy lives and enjoy life.

As for the White Tiger Nation, their thinking is as conservative as that of the Azure Dragon Nation. Unless a woman has absolute strength, it is difficult for her to be respected.

The Baihu people are also very good at hunting, and they are not afraid even when faced with huge prey such as brown bears and wild boars.

Among the four empires, the White Tiger Kingdom and the Suzaku Kingdom have stronger military strength, followed by the Black Tortoise Kingdom, and the last one is the Azure Dragon Kingdom.

However, Qinglong Kingdom has the largest land area among the four countries, the largest population, and the most abundant resources.

This is due to the geographical environment.

As the saying goes, people are shaped by the land and water they live in. They are really all different from each other.

The White Tiger Kingdom is cold and sparsely populated, but all of its people are soldiers, and they are born with supernatural powers and are as strong as an ox. Even the elderly, the weak, women and children should not be underestimated.

The Suzaku country was ravaged by wind and sand, and had no fixed place to live. They lived wherever there was water and grass, were skilled in archery and horse riding, and were good at fighting.

The Xuanwu Kingdom was plagued by floods and rampant bandits, but they were excellent swimmers, had extraordinary talents, amazing bones, and unique blood.

In comparison, the people of Qinglong Kingdom seem a little weak.

However, the people of Qinglong like to read widely, and they are better than others in business, pharmacology, and music.

It is because each empire has its own advantages and disadvantages, and because of some immortal cultivation families and some mysterious forces controlling the situation behind the scenes, countries will not act rashly.

These forces behind the scenes are deeply intertwined, and maintaining the status quo is best for all countries.

There were also some trade exchanges between the four major countries, and they often sent ministers to visit other countries.

Since Monk became the high priest, almost every time he left Shuangling Island it was for official business.

The identity of the high priest was like shackles that bound him tightly, and his every move involved too many things.
