In the deep mountains shrouded in darkness, a majestic temple emits a faint fluorescent light.
A group of people walking through the night were hurriedly arriving outside the temple.
The tight door of the temple seemed to sense the breath of a stranger and opened slowly and creaking automatically.
Zhou Fan and others, who had been traveling all night, stepped into the temple immediately.
The two priests outside the temple were currently fighting against dozens of strange black shadows that had disappeared into the night.
Those strange black shadows attacked everyone along the way, killing and injuring more than ten people in Zhou Fan and others' team.
If it weren't for the two sacrificial priests guarding them, Zhou Fan and others might have been wiped out.
Zhou Fan, who fled into the temple, was a little frightened at the moment, and he was also shocked that there was a shadow demon here.
This so-called shadow demon he had seen in the ancestral land of the Zhou family came from the shadow coffin.
The world of Coffin No. 9 that we entered this time seems to contain many unknown secrets.
There was a faint light emitting from the majestic temple. When Zhou Fan and others entered the hall, they found that the hall was extremely long, narrow and spacious.
This place is like a palace, with towering statues of gods standing in the center and around it.
Looking around, you can see that the statues on the left and right sides of the palace are dedicated to various birds and beasts, as well as various human beings with strange combinations of human heads and animal bodies.
"Don't act rashly, those statues cannot be touched easily!"
Just when someone came up out of curiosity and wanted to touch the statue, the priest who flew into the temple spoke in a deep voice to remind him.
Several teenagers were startled when they heard this and quickly retracted their hands that they were about to extend.
"Hmph! You two got here pretty quickly!"
At this moment, a cold snort sounded.
I saw a man wearing a red ghost face mask walking from outside the temple with Wang Qiang, Wang Jiyi and others from Wangjiacun.
When Wang Qiang stepped into the temple, his resentful eyes instantly fell on Zhou Fan.
His injuries have almost healed, but some injuries will never heal and regenerate.
Zhou Fan naturally noticed Wang Qiang's resentful gaze, but he ignored it.
His curious eyes instead fell on the man wearing the red ghost mask.
"He is a Rakshasa! He has inherited the blood and power of the ghost and god Rakshasa!"
"They are also the priests selected by the temple!"
At this time, the priest wearing a purple-gold mask walked up to Zhou Fan and introduced him in a low voice.
At the same time, there was a roar of fighting outside the temple.
Immediately afterwards, several more groups entered the temple.
Zhou Fan carefully looked at the people who came in and found that the leaders were all wearing masks.
He counted them carefully and found that there were nine people in total, all wearing patterned ghost-face masks of different colors.
If the guess is correct, the identities of these nine people should all be sacrifices.
They each brought young girls and boys who had just grown up, and they probably all had their own purposes.
After all, good deeds are done without leaving a name, and the auras of the nine people are extremely powerful, so there is no spare time to worry about bringing people to this so-called temple all day long.
If there was no benefit, he wouldn't believe it even if Zhou Fan was killed.
There was silence in the temple for a while. After the nine priests gathered together, they seemed to have communicated with each other and talked about something.
Soon, Zhou Fan and others were arranged to worship the three statues of gods enshrined in the center of the hall.
The statue on the left looks like a man with the body of a dragon and the head of a human, while the statue on the right looks like a woman with the body of a snake and the head of a human.
The statue enshrined in the middle is a burly human man. He holds an ax in his left hand and a flaming Holy Grail in his right hand.
"The three statues of gods in front of you are the ancestors of my human race!"
"Whether you can obtain divine power and inherit it today depends on your own destiny."
"You will follow us to worship and offer sacrifices!"
The nine priests took out various foods and placed them on the sacrificial table, and then led Zhou Fan and others to kowtow to the statue.
Everything was going on in an orderly manner in secret, and when Zhou Fan was worshiping the three statues, he suddenly felt as if the eyes of the three statues were falling on him.
This is a very special feeling, and the statue remains the same without any change.
But Zhou Fan had an intuition that the three statues were watching him.
The feeling of being exposed in broad daylight made Zhou Fan feel a little horrified.
Before he could react, the sacrificial ceremony had been completed.
"There are hundreds of statues of gods in this hall. According to your respective induction, as long as you can get the approval of the statues, you can put your hands on the statues to obtain the inheritance of divine power."
"But one thing you must remember is that when the statue does not call you, you must not reach out to the statue, otherwise it will be instantly wiped out."
A man wearing a black mask was reminding Zhou Fan and others in the hall.
Everyone was a little frightened when they heard this. They didn't expect the statue to be so dangerous.
Some people who were eager to touch the statues were so frightened that they felt as if they had walked through the gates of hell.
"Hmph! A bunch of cowards!"
Wang Qiang from Wangjiacun snorted coldly and looked at Zhou Fan and others who were silent at this moment with disdain.
He is a person who has received the inheritance of divine power. This time he just accompanied Wang Jiyi.
This time he also wanted to try his luck to see if he could get the inheritance of divine power again.
Zhou Fan ignored Wang Qiang's cynicism. After seeing all nine priests retreating outside the hall, he turned around and walked towards the statue enshrined on the left side of the hall.
These statues were strange in shape, but Zhou Fan recognized that there were legendary beasts among them, such as the phoenix, the divine dragon, the nine-tailed fox, and the Bi Fang divine bird.
Almost all kinds of mythical beasts are carved on the left and right sides of the temple, some of which have animal bodies and human heads.
He did not sense the call from those statues, so he did not dare to touch those statues without authorization.
Just as he went deep into the temple, he suddenly felt that there seemed to be a mysterious force calling him inside the temple.
Zhou Fan frowned slightly and was surprised. He hesitated for a moment and then walked slowly towards the depths of the temple.
"do not go!"
"I heard from my father that there are terrifying beings enshrined in the depths of the temple, and no one who enters the depths of the temple will survive."
Just when Zhou Fan was about to step into the depths of the temple, Lucy Liu's voice suddenly sounded.
"I think it's a suitable place for you!"
At this moment, a golden light appeared behind Zhou Fan in the blink of an eye. As soon as he said these playful words, he was sent flying into the depths of the temple by a golden light bullet.
"Zhou Fan!"
Lucy Liu exclaimed and wanted to pursue her into the depths of the temple, but was blocked by Wang Jiyi who suddenly appeared.
"The inheritance time of the temple is limited! Don't regret it!"
Wang Jiyi's playful voice sounded, making Lucy Liu furious.
But she didn't take action in the end, and dodged around Wang Jiyi's obstruction and rushed into the depths of the temple without hesitation.
At this moment, Zhou Fan, who flew into the corridor deep in the temple, was shrouded in darkness.
As he went deeper into the corridor, the darkness around him became thicker and thicker.
That special feeling of calling became stronger and stronger as he got closer.
Zhou Fan moved forward with a vigilant face, and after walking for a while, he finally reached the end of the corridor.
There is no so-called idol here, there is just a black mist that swallows up the light.
The black mist seemed to sense Zhou Fan, and wisps of flames appeared as it slowly squirmed.
There was just a trace of flame, and the surrounding temperature quickly rose, making Zhou Fan sweat profusely as if he was in a sea of fire.
A terrifying heat wave enveloped Zhou Fan, and only now did he see clearly that there was a pair of eyes as deep as an abyss in the black mist.
"call out!"
Two balls of black light wrapped in black flames shot into Zhou Fan's body in the blink of an eye.
"ah......"
Black flames shot into Zhou Fan's eyes, instantly erupting with terrifying power that swelled his body.
His eyes were instantly burned into charcoal, and his body burst into flames immediately.
Burning with flames, Zhou Fan screamed one after another as if he was in a sea of fire.
Not only his physical body, but his soul was also burning fiercely at this moment, almost scaring Zhou Fan to death.
The physical body is burned, but he may not die in this dream world.
But if his soul is burned, he will definitely die.
Screaming in agony, he tried desperately to extinguish the flames on his body, but the flames were like maggots attached to his bones and were difficult to extinguish.
"Zhou Fan!"
"Zhou Fan!"
At this time, Lucy Liu rushed over and without any time to think, she threw herself on Zhou Fan, trying to help him extinguish the flames on his body.
But the flames spread in the blink of an eye, burning Lucy Liu who rushed towards her, causing her to scream again and again.
Seeing that the two of them were almost burned to ashes by the flames, mysterious power suddenly burst out from Lucy Liu's body.
The mysterious power wanted to extinguish the flame, but I didn't expect that the flame had the ability to devour it.
In just the blink of an eye, the mysterious power in Lucy Liu's body was swallowed up.
At this critical moment, Zhou Fan's soul suddenly lit up with a purple-gold light.
The priest who was wearing a purple-gold mask outside the temple suddenly changed his face and realized that the mask, which was connected by blood, felt like it was trying to get out of his control.
With a sudden change of expression, he flew into the temple and soon sensed the suction and blood induction coming from the depths of the temple.
Without any time to think, he immediately flew into the depths of the temple, only to be enveloped in a black mist and imprisoned in place.
"Sir! Please forgive my people!"
The priest wearing a purple-gold mask was begging anxiously at this moment.
"He comes from the future and comes from the blood of your Zhou family."
"Whether he can survive the catastrophe of the end of the world depends on whether he can withstand the candlelight..."
The majestic voice reached the ears of the sacrificial man, shocking his heart.
"Go! Go and wait outside!"
"That little girl has already made her choice! He shouldn't die!"
The majestic voice reached the ears of Zhou's ancestor again, causing him to come back to his senses at this moment.
"boom!"
Soon, a strong wave of air blew him away in an instant.
The other eight priests who flew into the temple seemed to have discovered the abnormal behavior of the ancestors of the Zhou family. They were about to fly into the corridor deep into the temple when a strong wind hit them. Then they saw Zhou spitting blood.
The ancestor of the clan flew out upside down.
The eight people were startled, and they all took action to pick up the ancestor of the Zhou family. Then, the eight people were also blown out of the hall by the air wave.
"What are you doing?"
"Who asked you to break into the depths of the hall?"
"Grandma! Don't you know that adult's projection is sleeping deep in the hall? If you piss it off, everyone will have to play!"
The eight priests were furious at this moment, and they surrounded the ancestor of the Zhou family with a burst of curses.
It's just that ancestor Zhou Fan's mind was in a mess at the moment, and he didn't pay attention to his eight companions for a while.
