Chapter 622: Chapter 572: Xuanyuan Sword!
As expected, Wu Shijiu took the initiative to bring up the Witch Deity Teaching, he certainly had his own agenda.
He did not care about their strange color and actively said: “You must have known the origins of Witch Deity Teaching by now. At the very beginning, Witch Deity Teaching was a lineage of human tribe’s sacrificial rituals. They were worshipped by the Ancient Clan Tribe as sacrificial ministers, and presided over ceremonies communicating with the spirits of Heaven and Earth. Even when there were many rulers in the human tribe, the lineage of Witch Deity Teaching held an extraordinary status, receiving the courtesy and respect of the rulers…”
Wu Shijiu talked about the origin and history of the Witch Deity Teaching. The Witch Deity Teaching was constituted by those ritualistic shamans from the tribal era of the human race. At that time, human society had not developed a complete civilization, and they were still in a barbaric era. Every tribe had shamans who communicated with the Ghost God of Heaven and Earth, seeking direction for the clans and tribes.
Later, as numerous rulers of the human tribe emerged, the status of these ritualistic shamans got elevated again. They were worshipped as ceremonial officers who controlled the rites, and they were trusted confidants of the rulers, who held many secrets and key aspects of the human tribe.
The great affairs of a country lay in rituals and military matters.
And the ritual mentioned in this statement refers to the sacrifice, that is, the people who mastered the way of communicating with the Ghost God of Heaven and Earth.
“Later, Confucianism emerged, replacing the shamans and rituals, which led them to gradually leave the stage. But this Witch Deity Teaching is not completely useless, at least I, Wu, know that there is something in the Witch Deity Teaching that could be useful to you.” Here, Wu Shijiu finally revealed his true purpose.
Pei Xuanjing and Zhu Houji looked at each other and smiled, knowing what each other meant.
Wu Shijiu did not disguise his own thoughts, he looked at the two and said: “In the hands of Witch Deity Teaching, there is something passed down from the ancient rulers. If it can be obtained, it would be highly beneficial to the Great Ming Divine Dynasty.”
