“This is the Lethe Altar?”
Feng Changqing’s eyes were filled with surprise.
The altar in front of them looked extremely ancient and exuded a vast and grand aura. He could also feel an inexplicable holiness about it. Vaguely, he seemed to hear many creatures praying and worshipping.
However, just as he was about to listen carefully, the prayers strangely disappeared as if they had never appeared before.
The shock in Feng Changqing’s eyes became even more intense.
Looking at the Lethe Altar in front of him, Feng Jitian’s eyes revealed an extremely complicated emotion as well.
“This is the Lethe Altar that I mentioned before. You can treat it as the Tianfeng tribe’s inheritance supreme treasure or the River God of River Lethe’s divine artifact.”
Inheritance supreme treasure? A divine artifact?
Feng Changqing didn’t understand, but he was filled with curiosity.
“The Lethe Altar has a mysterious origin and has been passed down for countless years. It seems to have existed since the birth of River Lethe. With it, you are equivalent to becoming the River God of River Lethe. During ancient times, the Tianfeng tribe has always worshipped the River God of River Lethe. As a result, Lethe Altar and the Tianfeng tribe’s fate are connected. It carries the fate of the Tianfeng tribe.”
“As long as you can obtain the approval of the Lethe Altar, you will be like a God, able to sense everything in the Tianfeng tribe. In addition, it will also give you great power. But at the same time, you have to take on the responsibility of being the emissary of River Lethe, which is to patrol the entire River Lethe and protect the people of the Tianfeng tribe. Only when the tribe becomes stronger can you become stronger and live longer. The emissary of River Lethe and the Tianfeng tribe complement each other. Their fates are linked together.”
Feng Jitian slowly introduced.
Hearing this, Feng Changqing nodded in understanding.
“There have been many emissaries of River Lethe before, but did they not receive the recognition of the Lethe Altar?”
“Yes. This requires an opportunity and also depends on each person’s fate. Since you’re lucky enough to be here, it’s fate. You should give it a try too. See if you can get the recognition of the Lethe Altar and become the true emissary of River Lethe. You will probably be the last person to come, so if you can’t do it, I’m afraid there won’t be another true emissary of River Lethe in the future once 1 disappear. Naturally, there will no longer be anyone protecting the Tianfeng tribe.”
Feng Jitian’s face was of a sigh. He looked at Feng Changqing with a hint of anticipation.
Hearing this, Feng Changqing felt quite pressured. Naturally, he did not want to see the Tianfeng tribe wither and decline.
“Then what should 1 do?”
“It’s very simple. As long as you drip your blood on the altar and it responds, it will be considered as obtaining its recognition. At that time, you can inherit my position and become the true emissary of River Lethe. If the altar does not respond, it means that you are not fated to be the emissary of River Lethe,” Feng Jitian said calmly.
“Okay, let me try…”
Taking a deep breath, Feng Changqing followed Feng Jitian’s instructions and slowly came to the Lethe Altar. He dropped a drop of blood on it.
Umm…
After the blood dripped, the Lethe Altar remained silent and did not respond.
Seeing this, both Feng Changqing and Feng Jitian revealed disappointed expressions.
“Looks like 1 don’t have that fate,” Feng Changqing smiled bitterly.
Although Feng Jitian sighed, his expression didn’t change much. He had witnessed too many disappointments in the past tens of thousands of years, so Feng Changqing’s failure wasn’t a big deal.
“It’s alright. Perhaps this is fate. From now on, the emissary of River Lethe will completely become history, drowned in the long river of time. Since ancient times, God knows how many people have failed. It doesn’t matter if you…”
Feng Jitian wanted to comfort Feng Changqing, but in the middle of his sentence, the originally silent Lethe Altar suddenly blossomed with strands of golden light.
Buzz!
Immediately after, a beam of dazzling divine light rushed out of the altar and entered Feng Changqing’s glabella, turning into a mysterious mark that was branded on his soul.
“This… What happened?”
Looking at this sudden scene, Feng Changqing could not help but be stunned on the spot.
Even Feng Jitian was slightly startled. But immediately after, a surprised and gratified smile appeared on his face.
“Congratulations on obtaining the recognition of the Lethe Altar! From now on, you are the fourth generation of the emissary of River Lethe. You will be responsible for patrolling River Lethe and protecting the Tianfeng tribe. The heavens are watching over us. The emissary of River Lethe finally has a successor!”
Feng Jitian’s figure trembled violently as his eyes were filled with endless gratification. Before he died, he had finally found a guardian for the Tianfeng tribe, which could be considered as completing his final mission in this life.
At the same time, following a loud boom in his mind, a lot of information surged into Feng Changqing’s mind like a flood. Amongst them, there were things that Feng Jitian told him about, and there were also things that he didn’t tell him about.
It broadened Feng Changqing’s horizons.
Other than that, after he had obtained the approval of the Lethe Altar, he gained a magical ability. With a single thought, everything related to the Tianfeng tribe would instantly appear in his mind. He could even see the entire River Lethe clearly.
“It’s too magical!”
Feng Changqing was greatly shocked as he immersed himself in the view that was as if he was looking down from heaven. This was the first time he had felt such a magical and heaven-defying ability.
Lethe Altar was indeed a divine artifact.
“How is it? Do you feel like a God overlooking the world? Everything about the Tianfeng tribe and River Lethe appeared in front of you, right?” Feng Jitian laughed.
Hearing this, Feng Changqing took a deep breath and nodded.
“The Lethe Altar is too magical. This feeling… It’s like I’m a God who controls all creatures and looks down on the mortal world. 1 am above all things.”
Feng Changqing’s eyes were filled with infatuation. He had never experienced such power before.
“This is just one of the abilities of the Lethe Altar. As 1 said before, controlling it will give you great power. It’s connected to the Tianfeng tribe’s luck. Now that you have become the true Emissary of River Lethe, you will receive feedback from the Tianfeng tribe.”
“What do you mean? How?”
Feng Changqing was curious.
“It means that after you become the true emissary of River Lethe, a portion of every Tianfeng tribe member’s cultivation and power will be extracted and poured into you. Since you have gathered the power of all tribe members, you will naturally reach the heavens in one step and obtain powerful strength.” What? A portion of every Tianfeng tribe member’s cultivation and power would be extracted and poured into me?
Hearing this, Feng Changqing was greatly surprised.
“This… I…”
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
Just as he was about to say something, a wave of majestic and pure spiritual energy suddenly appeared out of thin air, circulating in his body like a great river.
Immediately after, Feng Changqing was shocked to find that under the push of the majestic spiritual energy, his cultivation was increasing at a terrifying speed..
