By in main hall midair, float two broad platforms, above has been placing rows of chairs, obviously is Patriarch preparation position, this moment already many people sat above. 大殿两侧的半空中,悬浮着两个宽阔的平台,上面摆放了一排排的座椅,显然是各位家主准备的位置,此刻已经有不少人坐在了上面。 The Liu Ming personal appearance dodged, has flown above population few platforms, asked Zhang Yizi to sit. 柳鸣身形一闪,飞到了一个人数较少的平台之上,找了一张椅子坐了下来。 Sits here, the field of vision is more open. 坐在此处,视野更加开阔。 In two platform front, impressively is big in all directions altar, altar lays on top of one another with a shiny black strange stone all over the body, the midpoint towers back 50 zhang (3.33 m) to grasp the demon person statue of iron spear|gun, looks like lifelike. 在两个平台前方,赫然是一座高大的四方祭坛,祭坛通体是用一种黑黝黝的奇异石头垒砌而成,正中央耸立着一樽50丈大小手持铁枪的魔人雕像,看起来栩栩如生。 altar four corners has one first about ten zhang (3.33 m) big statue respectively, is four individual beast head thing, the color is various, separately is the noble appearance person looks like, the lion's head person looks like, the hammer person looks like, the leopard person looks like. 祭坛四角各有一头十丈左右的高大雕像,却是四个人身兽首的东西,颜色各不相同,分别是虎头人身像,狮头人身像,狼头人身像,豹头人身像。 Although four statue styles are rough, but exceptionally is similarly lifelike, the cut-throat imposing manner wants the broken body. 四具雕像风格虽然粗犷,但同样异常逼真,凶狠的气势直欲破体而出。 In the Liu Ming eye rays of light glittering, Mo Tian allows him to participate in this time attending the ceremony, definitely has schemed, but does not know that his goal in the end is anything. 柳鸣眼中光芒闪烁,魔天让他来参加这次的观礼,肯定有所图谋,只是不知他的目的到底是什么。 Such Imperial Palace important location has restrictions to protect and sustain, this in its expected, but just entered the palace time the feeling of that difference, making him care very much. 此等皇宫重地有禁制护持,这本在其意料之中,只是刚刚进殿时候的那股异样之感,让他很是在意。 But at this moment again induces, is actually not able the sensation. 可是此刻再去感应,却是无法感知到了。 Observes the surrounding these days in Liu Ming, many Aristocratic Family Patriarch arrive one after another. 在柳鸣观察周围的这段时间里,有不少世家家主陆续到来。 Liu Ming did not know any acquaintance basically, all around looked at one, then has closed the eye, calmly waited for the crown prince to confer the rank and title of empress the arrival of ceremony. 柳鸣基本不认识什么熟人,四下看了一阵,便闭上了眼睛,静静等候储君册立仪式的到来。 „May I ask your excellency, is Quan State Qing Family Patriarch Liu Ming?” Then at this moment, a sound passed on. “敢问阁下,可是泉州青家家主柳鸣吗？”便在此刻,一个声音传了过来。 Liu Ming opens the eye, this moment looks like the plump and fair-complected youth fatty stands, on the face has stacked the smiling face. 柳鸣睁开眼睛,此刻一个看起来白白胖胖的青年胖子站在旁边,脸上堆起了笑容。 „Below Liu Ming, your excellency is?” Liu Ming looked up fatty one eyes, has stood, saying of staying calm and collected. “在下正是柳鸣,阁下是？”柳鸣抬头看了胖子一眼,站了起来,不动声色的说道。 The man who this suddenly presents although looks like obese, but cultivation base also arrived at Heaven Imitation Realm Late Stage impressively. 这个忽然出现的男子虽然看起来肥胖,不过修为赫然也到了天象境后期。 He does not have the impression regarding this person, should not see has been, moreover here almost do not have what acquaintance, the opposite party can discover itself to come unexpectedly, making him feel quite the surprise. 他对于此人全无印象,应该是从没有见过才是,而且这里自己几乎没有什么熟人,对方竟然能一眼找出自己来,让其颇感诧异。 „Patriarch Liu really makes me quite look, my Zhao Zhen, presently is Wang State Zhao Family Patriarch, is Princess Ying's cousin, the long time hears about the Patriarch Liu given name, today finally is predestined friends sees, is really fortunately.” On the youth fatty face has piled up with smiling face, he he smiles, introduces oneself. “柳家主真是让我好找啊,本人赵真,现为妄州赵家家主,也是颖公主殿下的表哥,久闻柳家主大名,今日终于有缘得见,真是有幸。”青年胖子脸上堆满了笑容,呵呵一笑,自我介绍起来。 Liu Ming hears this word, the complexion slightly changes. 柳鸣听闻此言,脸色微微一变。 „Originally is Zhao Patriarch, Liu Ming had the place of failure in politeness a moment ago, but also asked Zhao brother to forgive!” On Liu Ming's face shows the smiling face, cuped one hand in the other across the chest good a ritual. “原来是赵家主,刚才柳鸣有失礼之处,还请赵兄包涵！”柳鸣脸上露出笑容,拱手行了一礼。 „Patriarch Liu too polite, sits.” Zhao Zhen sat on Liu Ming nearby chair, in the mouth Ha Ha said with a smile. “柳家主太客气了,坐坐。”赵真在柳鸣旁边的椅子上坐了下来,口中哈哈笑道。 In the Liu Ming eye rays of light dodges, said from yesterday's Huangfu Yupo, he and Zhao Qianying relations should not have other any people to know are. 柳鸣眼中光芒微闪,从昨日皇甫玉魄说的来看,他和赵千颖的关系应该还没什么其他人知晓才是。 „Zhao Patriarch there knows from Princess Ying below?” In his surface asking of staying calm and collected. “赵家主是从颖公主那里知道在下的吗？”他面上不动声色的问道。 „He He, good, I and Princess Ying, although is only the cousin, but Princess Ying's mother is little brother's teacher, I and Ying'er can be said as grow up together, when five years ago I comes Demon Imperial Palace to visit her, from her mouth heard some related Patriarch Liu matters.” Zhao Zhen he he said with a smile. “呵呵,不错,我和颖公主虽只是表亲,但是颖公主的母亲是小弟的师尊,我和颖儿可说是一起长大,五年前我来魔皇宫探望她时,从她口中听说了一些有关柳家主的事情。”赵真呵呵笑着说道。 Immediately he drew close to Liu Ming suddenly, mysterious [say / way]: „Cannot think that Patriarch Liu participated in the tour of previous time Demon Abyss unexpectedly, lets admire below seriously.” 随即他忽的贴近了柳鸣,神秘兮兮的道:“想不到柳家主竟然参加了上次的魔渊之行,当真让在下佩服。” „Zhao Patriarch overpraised, but is happens to present nothing more, and this Liu is seriously injured in inside, almost lost the poor life in inside.” In the Liu Ming heart a loosen, it seems like that this person knows not much, at least does not know him and Zhao Qianying relations. “赵家主过奖了,不过是适逢其会而已,且柳某在里面身受重伤,差点将小命丢在了里面。”柳鸣心中一松,看来此人所知不多,起码不知道他和赵千颖的关系。 At this time from ceremony still early, about Liu Ming the safe, then accompanies Zhao Zhen to chitchat at will. 此时距离仪式尚早,柳鸣左右无事,便陪着赵真随意攀谈起来。 This Zhao Zhen some ripe dispositions, as if are quite interested in Demon Abyss originally, inquiry Liu Ming in story. 这个赵真有些自来熟的性格,似乎对魔渊颇为感兴趣,不停的询问柳鸣在其中的见闻。 Liu Ming has picked some not too important matter, said that to the Zhao Zhen hear, at the same time also makes a veiled attack inquired Zhao Qianying and Huangfu Aristocratic Family matter, their conversations are quite congenial. 柳鸣捡了一些不太重要的事情,说给了赵真听,同时也旁敲侧击的打听了一下赵千颖和皇甫世家的事情,两人的交谈颇为投机。 Wang State Zhao Family is the Huangfu Aristocratic Family relations by marriage family, therefore Zhao Zhen is very deep to the central dynasty understanding, moreover he quite likes showing off, Liu Ming knew many Huangfu Aristocratic Family matters from his there. 妄州赵家是皇甫世家的姻亲家族,故而赵真对中央王朝了解很深,而且他颇为喜欢炫耀,柳鸣从他那里知道了不少皇甫世家的事情。 They chatted are chatting, then talked about this time crown prince to choose. 两人聊着聊着,便谈到了此次的皇储选择上。 A Zhao Zhen thread of conversation revolution asked: „Brother Liu, had you come Obedient Heart Palace before?” 赵真话锋一转问道:“柳兄,你以前来过堃心殿吗？” „In Patriarch of below small place, including central Imperial City is the first time, how to have come this Obedient Heart Palace?” Liu Ming shook the head, the forced smile said. “在下不过一个小地方的家主,连中央皇城都是第一次来,如何会来过这堃心殿？”柳鸣摇了摇头,苦笑道。 „Made an indiscreet remark below, Brother Liu possibly does not know that this Obedient Heart Palace may be different from other places, was the institute of central dynasty first generation Demon Emperor cultivation, saves the world still to have hundreds of thousands of years.” About Zhao Zhen looked, immediately somewhat mysterious pulling down sound said. “在下失言,柳兄可能不知道,此堃心殿可不同于其他地方,是中央王朝第一代魔皇修炼之所,存世至今已有数十万年的时间了。”赵真左右看了看,随即有些神秘的压低声音道。 In the Liu Ming eye surprised expression flashes past, he has not actually thought that here palace really has such big background. 柳鸣眼中惊讶之色一闪而过,他却是没想到,此处宫殿竟然有这么大的来头。 „Obedient Heart Palace by pure black flash demon crystal Stone Checheng, you looks at the following floor all over the body, the wall, front altar is. This black flash demon crystal stone is quite rare, small then priceless, now is Ten Thousand Demon Continent all black flash demon crystal stones adds, perhaps is inferior to the half of this palace!” Saying that fatty tut tut acclaimed. “堃心殿通体由纯净的黑耀魔晶石彻成,你看下面的地板,墙壁,还有前面的祭坛都是。这黑耀魔晶石极为稀有,小小一颗便价值连城,现在就是万魔大陆所有的黑耀魔晶石加起来,恐怕都不及此殿的一半！”胖子啧啧赞叹的说道。 In the Liu Ming eye rays of light dodges, he has not listened to the name of black flash demon crystal stone, the black stone of this main hall so is unexpectedly scarce preciously, don't tell me is because its has to swallow the Divine Consciousness ability? 柳鸣眼中光芒一闪,他没有听过黑耀魔晶石的名字,这大殿的黑石竟然如此稀少珍贵,难道是因为其有着吞噬神识的能力？ „Was right, I hear the Central Imperial Court crown prince am not Demon Emperor your majesty select personally, does not know whether is this?” Liu Ming puts aside from the black flash demon crystal stone the thoughts quickly, asked in a heart the issue of long conceal. “对了,我听闻中央皇朝的皇储并非魔皇陛下亲自选拔的,不知是否是这样？”柳鸣很快将心思从黑耀魔晶石上移开,问出一个心中久藏的问题。 „Hehe, has not thought that Patriarch Liu this matter also knows continually, but this Huangfu Aristocratic Family and even entire Ten Thousand Demon Continent secret.” Zhao Zhen surprise looked at Liu Ming one, said. “嘿嘿,没想到柳家主连此事也知道,这个可是皇甫世家乃至整个万魔大陆的隐秘。”赵真诧异的看了柳鸣一眼,说道。 „The hearsay some nothing more, where have looked like Zhao Patriarch to be so learned by chance.” Liu Ming smiles lightly, seemed like flattered opposite party one at will. “恰巧道听途说了一些而已,哪里像赵家主这般博古通今。”柳鸣淡淡一笑,看似随意的奉承了对方一句。 Really, Zhao Zhen enjoys, said with a smile: „Where where, Brother Liu overpraised. Under waited for Patriarch Liu then to see in any case, I said that now did not have anything.” 果然,赵真对此十分受用,笑着说道:“哪里哪里,柳兄过奖了。反正等下柳家主便能看到了,我现在说也没有什么。” „Huangfu dynasty all previous dynasties selection next Demon Emperor, just like Patriarch Liu said that was not the artificial selection, but gave Central Imperial Court Protecting Clan Treasure Void Demon Cauldron, selected from all Huangfu family|home direct descendant juniors.” Zhao Zhen approached Liu Ming, the expression is somewhat mystical. “皇甫皇朝历代选拔下一任魔皇,正如柳家主所言,并非人为选拔,而是交给中央皇朝的一件镇族之宝虚魔鼎,从所有皇甫家嫡系子弟中选取。”赵真靠近了柳鸣,语气有些神秘。 „Has such matter unexpectedly......” Liu Ming's complexion one startled, thinks somewhat absurdly. “竟有此等事情……”柳鸣脸色一惊,觉得有些荒唐。 The choice of solemn Demon Emperor, gives a treasure to decide unexpectedly. 堂堂魔皇的选择,竟然交给一件宝物来决定。 „I know in the Patriarch Liu heart to think, but this matter is absolutely true, it is said that Void Demon Cauldron is quite clever, already is not the common magical treasure category, it is said grade already has surmounted heavenly dwelling magical treasure.” Saying of Zhao Zhen bountiful interest. “我知道柳家主心中所想,不过此事千真万确,据说那虚魔鼎极为通灵,已经不是寻常法宝的范畴,据说品级已经超越了洞天法宝。”赵真饶富趣味的说道。 Liu Ming hears this word, the complexion changes, surmounts heavenly dwelling magical treasure, don't tell me that is Void Demon Cauldron inadequate with Heaven Mixing Mirror same Profound Spirit Treasure? 柳鸣听闻此言,脸色微变,超越洞天法宝,难道那虚魔鼎是和浑天镜一样的玄灵之宝不成？ When they talked, a side gate in main hall opened slowly. 就在两人交谈之际,大殿中的一处侧门缓缓打开。 Huangfu Yong was bringing Huangfu Yupo, Huangfu Zhantian and another silver-haired fierce man entered the main hall, again behind impressively was the direct descendant juniors of more than ten central dynasties, Zhao Qianying impressively also. 皇甫雍带着皇甫玉魄,皇甫占天和另一位银发狰狞男子走进了大殿,再后面赫然是十余名中央王朝的嫡系子弟,赵千颖赫然也在其中。 Liu Ming's eyebrows moves slightly, this female at this moment looks like, although well, but in the foreheads is bringing depressed expression faintly, cannot help but in the heart secretly sighed. 柳鸣眉头微微一动,此女此刻看起来虽然无恙,但是眉宇之间隐隐带着一丝郁结神色,不由得心中暗暗叹了口气。 Aristocratic Family Patriarch above two platform see with own eyes this scenery, immediately was peaceful, only then the intermittent sound of footsteps reverberates in the spacious main hall. 两处平台之上的各位世家家主眼见此景,顿时安静了下来,只有阵阵脚步声在空旷的大殿里回响。 Huangfu Yong and behind three Elder complexions dignifiedly with deep veneration, but on the audiences Prince sovereign female face many is a little anxious. 皇甫雍和身后的三位长老脸色凝重肃然,而众皇子皇女脸上多少都有点紧张。 The group footsteps keep, arrives above altar directly, afterward turns around to the front. 一行人脚步不停,径直走到祭坛之上,随后转身面向前方。 Zhao Qianying turned the head to sweep one toward the crowd in platform in slightly, immediately lowered the head. 赵千颖微微转头朝平台上的人群中扫了一眼,随即低下了头。 „This time my Huangfu Clan selects crown prince, asked Patriarch to attend the ceremony in this especially, makes a testimony.” The Huangfu Yong clear and resonant voice announced. “此次我皇甫家族甄选储君,特请诸位家主在此观礼,做个见证。”皇甫雍朗声宣布道。 The voice just fell, Patriarch above platform has stood, is headed by Patriarch of three big wealthy and powerful families, toward Huangfu Yong good a ritual. 话音刚落,平台之上的诸位家主纷纷站了起来,以三大豪族的家主为首,朝着皇甫雍行了一礼。 In the Huangfu Yong mouth mumbled, waved to make together secret technique. 皇甫雍口中念念有词,挥手打出一道法诀。 Nearby two platforms purple light dodged, appears the one layer purple light screen, covered two platforms in inside. 两座平台附近紫光一闪,浮现出了一层紫色光幕,将两座平台笼罩在了里面。 Sees this situation, some various person complexion changes above platform, were in a tumult slightly. 见此情形,平台之上的诸人脸色有些变化,微微骚动了起来。 Liu Ming's complexion changes, the purple light screen has isolated his Divine Consciousness, but has not limited regarding other five feelings actually. 柳鸣脸色微变,紫色光幕隔绝了他的神识,不过对于其他五感倒是没有限制。 „During selecting, to avoid disturbing, therefore arrange this stratification, but also invited do not mind.” Huangfu Yong behind, Huangfu Zhantian Elder treads the previous step, opens the mouth to say. “甄选期间,为了避免干扰,所以布下了这层结界,还请诸位不要介意。”皇甫雍身后,皇甫占天长老踏前一步,开口说道。 Hears this word, above the platform various person expression decide slightly. 听闻此言,平台之上诸人神色稍定。 „, Our then starts.” Huangfu Yong no longer looks to the platform, turned around to look to the altar on more than ten Prince sovereign females. “那么,我们这便开始吧。”皇甫雍不再看向平台,转身看向了对着祭坛上的十余名皇子皇女。 Zhao Qianying and the others complied to come one, immediately dispersed loudly, gathers round the altar central statue to sit. 赵千颖等人答应而来一声,随即轰然散开,围着祭坛中央的雕像坐成了一圈。 „These emperor's clan juniors are probably lowest are also the Heaven Imitation Realm demon people!” Above the platform, Liu Ming's eyes flashed, in the mouth said. “这些皇族子弟好像最低也是天象境界的魔人！”平台之上,柳鸣目光一闪,口中说道。 „Naturally, participates in lowest requirement of selection ceremony is Heaven Imitation Realm, otherwise because of not being able to withstand, but explodes the body body to be busy!” [Say / Way] that fatty Zhao Zhen thinks otherwise. “当然,参加选拔仪式的最低要求是天象境,否则会因为承受不住,而爆体身忙的！”胖子赵真不以为然的道。 Liu Ming nodded slowly. 柳鸣缓缓点了点头。 Huangfu Yong to a Huangfu Zhantian three people of micro nod, the Huangfu Zhantian three people of associative compounds, the personal appearance moved, has flown sky over altar, presented a triangle shape. 皇甫雍对皇甫占天三人微一点头,皇甫占天三人会意,身形一动,飞到了祭坛上空,呈现出一个三角形状。 Huangfu Yong sat on altar front carpet, complexion is solemn and respectful, wielded single-handed, took out purple books, read aloud in a low voice. 皇甫雍在祭坛前方一个蒲团上坐了下来,面色肃穆,单手一挥,取出了一份紫色书册,低声诵读了起来。 The Liu Ming aural acuity is extremely good, what Huangfu Yong read aloud was only a piece of ordinary worshipping ancestor, heaven and earth article, but the length was very long, Huangfu Yong read aloud reads about the less than half double-hour to read off. 柳鸣耳力极佳,皇甫雍诵读的只是一片普通的祭拜先祖,天地的文章,不过篇幅很长,皇甫雍足足诵念了小半个时辰左右才读完。 Afterward Huangfu Yong lifts, one volume of purple books in hand flew, has ignited one group of purple flame in midair, then vanishes without the trace quickly. 随后皇甫雍手一抬,手中的一卷紫色书册飞了起来,在半空中燃起了一团紫色火焰,很快便消失无踪。 Liu Ming's complexion concentrates, knows that then finally arrives formally started, his Zhao Zhen fatty complexion has also enforced. 柳鸣脸色一凝,知道接下来终于到了正式开始的时候,他身旁的赵真胖子脸色也严肃了起来。
