Gulu...

The head rolled to the ground, and his eyes widened with reluctance. Until his death, he could not hear the reason for his failure from Cheng Shen.

In fact, if it is not necessary.

Such as delaying time.

Cheng Shen has never been in the habit of explaining doubts to his enemies.

What do dead people do if they know so much?

"This formation..."

Cheng Shen glanced at Govia who fell on the ground and then looked at the altar in front of him. Around the altar, dense and complex magic patterns were carved, forming a huge six-pointed star array, with sacrifices placed in the four corners.

They are a sacred book covered in blood; a pair of broken white wings; a dark blue eye the size of an adult's fist;

and a ball of golden glow floating in the light mask.

The position where Govia was kneeling before was the fifth corner of this magic circle. Obviously, she was also serving as a sacrifice.

The sixth position is empty.

Waiting for him.

"The function of this part of the formation is to transform vitality..." Although Cheng Shen cannot activate his innate ability, he can still identify the actual function of part of the formation by relying on his own knowledge, and then use this to deduce.

"It seems to be a resurrection formation..."

He raised his head.

The altar surrounded by candlelight is filled with blood that has not yet dried up. The head placed on it is not human. It has a pair of dark sharp horns that bend backwards, a mouth full of fangs, and a sharp sword stuck on its forehead.

.

The blade of the sword was already rusty and full of cracks, and it seemed that it would break if it was pulled out with force.

But it seems to suppress a terrifying wave of heart-wrenching emotions.

He remembered what the old man had just said to him.

Cheng Shen's thoughts gradually became clearer.

"God... doesn't care about the life and death of mortals." He couldn't help but shake his head. The so-called god is a master who has broken away from the level of ordinary life, is aloof and controls everything, but looks down at the warmth and coldness of the world with cold eyes.

Unless someone touches her actual interests.

otherwise.

No matter how many crimes he commits, he cannot attract her attention.

To God, the human world is just a huge back garden. Who would intervene just because a group of ants are fighting in the garden?

What's more.

This monastery may be less conspicuous than an ant nest...

The scene of disaster that the old man implanted in Cheng Shen's memory was obviously not a punishment from the gods.

And the scene in front of him made him guess the fact that was infinitely close to the truth.

That disaster was probably a bloody ritual performed by this demon in order to resurrect it, but it undoubtedly failed in the end. However, due to unknown reasons, this monastery was actually reflected in the nightmare.

Cheng Shen looked thoughtfully at the old man whose head was missing.

"Maybe this is his nightmare."

Nightmares never die.

Immortality here.

There are two interpretations.

First, someone like Cheng Shen can always hold firm to his innermost beliefs and avoid being assimilated by nightmares and being pulled into the abyss. No matter how serious the injury is, it is only a superficial impact, and he can survive as long as he is not completely wiped out.

The other is to accept the fact of your own death.

Become a nightmare.

Become a member of the endless cycle of reincarnation.

Just like the person in front of him, he has already been a part of this nightmare, so after being killed by himself, just like the believers he killed before, he immediately froze and waited for the next reincarnation to start.

but.

Dealing with him is still not the key to ending this nightmare.

"This nightmare started with a demonic ritual, and it should end with the failure of the ritual.

So now just destroy this altar and make it fail directly..."

Cheng Shen glanced over.

suddenly.

He stayed on that golden glow, his heart ready to move.

"What is this...why does it feel so attractive to me..."

Cheng Shen unconsciously walked to the edge of the formation, stretched out his hand through the light barrier, and grabbed the free golden substance in his hand.

[Obtain: Heart of the Saint!]

…

"I really want to eat it..."

Cheng Shen felt the desire coming from the bottom of his heart and hesitated. His intuition told him that this thing seemed to be a great tonic for the soul, but he was worried that using this nightmare substance would indirectly assimilate his soul.

After weighing it for a moment, Cheng Shen suddenly stretched out his hand and tore a small piece of it apart, and then he walked directly to Goviya's side.

"This must be good stuff. I'll give it to you first." Cheng Shen stuffed it directly into her mouth.

The moment his fingers touched her soft lips, his movements suddenly stopped, and Cheng Shen nodded with satisfaction.

"It seems to be a good thing indeed."

Say it.

He stuffed the entire mass into his mouth without hesitation.

"Hmm!..."

The golden entrance instantly turned into a stream of scalding heat, which penetrated along his damaged esophagus and penetrated into his body. Extreme heat emerged, and Cheng Shen suddenly felt as if he was in a blazing furnace!

Crack...!

His skin was quickly covered with fine cracks like porcelain, with golden light flowing through the cracks. Two bright rays of light suddenly shot out from his eyes, like golden lightning that instantly penetrated the space in front of him!

"ah!

"

The excitement in his chest made Cheng Shen couldn't help but let out a wild roar.

boom!

The next moment.

His whole body instantly exploded into millions of pieces!

Cheng Shen was not dead! At this moment, he only felt that his consciousness was scattered in thousands of places, spreading in every corner of this building. This was not an illusion when he died, but a symbol of the sublimation of his soul level!

His consciousness enveloped the entire building, watching everything from a very strange perspective, like a god sitting on the clouds overlooking all living beings.

This feeling.

More mysterious and fascinating than his ability to perceive things through spiritual power!

From his perspective, the world seemed to be frozen, and Cheng Shen's extremely subtle insight even allowed Cheng Shen to capture the dust floating in the air.

Whoosh!

The soul fragments scattered in every corner suddenly turned into streaks of golden light, quickly returning to form Cheng Shen's soul body. His originally translucent soul actually radiated golden light from the inside out!

"It turns out that only a moment passed..."

Cheng Shen suddenly realized, immersed in the wonderful feeling just now, he felt as if a century had passed.

Until the perspective is restored.

But some changes stayed in his body forever.

Cheng Shen could clearly feel that the time frozen around him began to flow, as if the world that had been pressed by a pocket watch had regained order, the dust in the air fell, and everything began to move from death to life...

There are many more changes.

It's just that he didn't have time to understand it carefully.

Cheng Shen immediately turned his head and looked at the place where Govia had fallen, and saw that she, who was already completely dead, had crawled to the corner where another sacrifice was at some point, and was reaching out to grab the faint blue eye.

eye.

"wind."
