Chapter 281 The Corroded Statue of the God of Hell, Glaze Pure Fire
The divine power of 'Tenming Shrine' far exceeds that of 'Wuzhi Shrine'. Lin Xun has to face not only an unknown and powerful BOSS, but also many clergy who have been enhanced by the divine power.
It is undoubtedly a big problem to conquer the shrine.
However, it is not Lin Xun's character to be persuaded to give up without trying the difficulties and obstacles involved.
He decided to wait until late at night and go to the temple alone to give it a try...
Pretending to appease Senior Sister, he left the ‘Shrine of Photography Society’.
Lin Xun stayed away from the many pilgrims in the shrine and hid outside the shrine to try out the 'Ninja Master''s stealth skills.
In the 'Wuzhi Shrine', after the ninja master started his escape, he could only vaguely see a vague transparent figure.
However, outside the 'Tianming Shrine', epic-level escape techniques can only make the figure slightly hazy and cannot achieve the effect of invisibility.
Although Lin Xun was mentally prepared, he could only sigh helplessly.
Time passed into the middle of the night, and he resurrected the shikigami "Slippery Ghost", switched into the body of "Greed Wolf Star Lord", and sneaked into the shrine again...
[The clouds obscured the moonlight and starlight in the late night, making it look eerily silent.]
[You are flying thousands of feet high in the sky with your sword, overlooking the top of Tianming Mountain below. There is no noise in the shrine during the day, only the oppressive and silent darkness. 】
[You gather your true energy, focus your eyes, and look around. There are only a few guards on duty in the shrine, carrying lights and patrolling back and forth...]
[For the huge ‘Tenmei Shrine’, just a few out-of-service patrols are full of loopholes and blind spots, and cannot serve any purpose in warning foreign enemies. 】
[However, it is not surprising that the ‘Tianming Shrine’ has a transcendent status. It enshrines the statue of the only true god ‘Canggu Tianyan’. The believers and pilgrims have not had time to worship, so how can they dare to desecrate the shrine? 】
[As for the ‘evil remnants’, most of them have disappeared. Even if there are survivors, they are all hiding in the wilderness and deep mountains. They are terrified all day long, and they dare not set foot in Kyoto. 】
[Soon, several officers completed their patrols and returned to their dormitories to rest...]
[It is now the middle of the night, and it won’t be long before the ‘Worship Ceremony’ mentioned by ‘Moon City Purple Leaf’ will begin. 】
[You lower the height quietly, and your sword falls to the ground...]
[You are hiding in the shadow of the corner outside this hall. In the dim night, unless you deliberately patrol here with a light, you will not be found. 】
[Suddenly, you feel something in your heart and look into the distance...]
[I saw a dense crowd of people gathering in the direction of Shesu. It is estimated that the number is nearly a hundred people.]
[They did not make the slightest sound, and slowly and silently approached the main hall. Apart from the neat and gentle footsteps, you could not hear any other sounds. 】
[As the crowd approaches, you can clearly see that the leader is wearing white clothes and hakama, with the noble and auspicious pattern of the dark gray "Hatsuto Maru" painted on the clothes. 】
[For top shrines such as ‘Tenmei Shrine’, only the palace minister with the highest status in the shrine and who is in charge of everything can wear such clothes.]
[You discovered the ‘evil Tenmei Shrine Palace Priest’! 】
[The palace minister was expressionless all the way, not just him, but also the many clergymen behind him. The expressions of nearly a hundred people were exactly the same, making you feel an inexplicable depression. 】
[The palace minister approached the main gate of the main hall and waved away the invisible barrier of Tamagaki. Under its leadership, nearly a hundred people filed into the main hall...]
[You quietly walk back to the main entrance of the temple, only to see that the door has been tightly closed, and the undulating figures reflected on the paper are silently telling you that the worship ceremony is about to begin. 】
[You step lightly and don't make a single sound. You are taking advantage of the barrier to be removed and step into the scope of this temple. 】
[You enter the Tamagaki barrier, circle back to the back of the main hall again, and wait quietly for the worship ceremony to end. 】
[At that time, when the palace minister and his party leave, you can secretly sneak into the palace. 】
[It’s just that when the palace minister leaves, the barrier will definitely rise again. If there is a barrier blocking you, you will probably be trapped and locked in the palace, unable to leave...]
【Are you going to continue to lurk, or just retreat? 】
Lin Xun didn't care. The one-way ticket didn't matter. If he couldn't get out of trouble, he would commit suicide and return to the city for free.
He stared at the game text and waited silently.
I don’t know how long it took before the game text changed.
[Suddenly, an invisible hand fell on your shoulder. You were startled and turned around to swing your sword, but saw the figure of 'Moon City Purple Leaf' appearing and standing behind you. 】
[Yuecheng Ziye stares at the ‘Dragon Sword Authentic’ in your hand, and carefully asks softly, benefactor? 】
[It has seen the scene where you transformed into a giant and fought with the 'Ninja Master' in the illusion of the 'Wu Zhi Shrine', and it knows that your exotic spells are extremely mysterious and can transform into both a warlock and a strongman. 】
[Although you look like a strange swordsman at this time, it learned your identity through the 'Dragon Sword Authentic'...]
"Damn! What are you doing here, Senior Sister?"
Lin Xun came to this hall this time with the determination to exchange his life for intelligence clues. As long as he had a rough idea of the strength of the BOSS in this hall, even if he died once, it wouldn't be a loss.
He can be resurrected from the dead, but the senior sister cannot be resurrected. If he dies, it will really be a disaster.
[You want to drive away the 'Moon City Purple Leaf' to go into danger alone, but you see it holding a 'big naginata' in one hand and a golden 'Kagura Bell' in the other, shaking its head firmly. 】
[‘Moon City Purple Leaf’ reminded in a low voice that the divine power of ‘Tenmei Shrine’ surpasses all shrines. It can also receive strength gains like other clergy members. My benefactor, please don’t underestimate it. 】
[Moreover, it was lurking at the gate of the main palace that day, but it was safe and sound the next day after it was discovered...With it protecting you, even if you are discovered by the palace minister, you might still be able to escape.]
[You were about to continue to persuade it to leave, but you saw ‘Moon City Purple Leaf’ signaling you to be silent. 】
[You look towards the main hall. There are no longer any dense crowds of people on the paper. There is a creaking sound of the door being opened in front of the main hall. 】
[As the neat footsteps fade away, you feel an invisible solid force gradually surround you and the entire main hall. You know that the Tamagaki barrier has risen, trapping the two of you here.]
[At this time, you can only take ‘Moon City Purple Leaf’ to explore this temple. 】
[When everything is completely silent, you poke your head out and look around. The shrine is completely silent, and not a single soul can be seen.]
[You guys go back to the front of the hall...]
[Do you want to open the door of this temple and explore the unknown inside? 】
Lin Xun directly summoned his three powerful babies, Valkyrie, Snow Girl, and Slippery Ghost.
He also gave Tanlang Xingjun fully armed, wielding the sword "Dragon Sword Masamune", the right hand "Uzuki Onikiri", the left hand "Ancient Dragon Fang Giant Stick", and wearing the "Dragon Knight's Regenerated Scale Armor"...
"I have worked very hard to keep Senior Sister alive."
At this time, he transformed into a humanoid armory, completely ignoring the stunned senior sister on the side.
Take a deep breath and press the door open option.
[With a squeak, you slowly push open the main door of the temple...]
[The lights in this hall are brightly lit, and the candles are not extinguished. You can have a panoramic view of everything in the hall.]
[I saw a huge shadow surrounded by black energy on the altar deep in the temple. 】
[There are countless black branches and leaves as thick as a giant python, entwined with each other, and delicate and dark flowers are blooming, beautiful and weird. 】
[The branches and leaves squirm, revealing a faint flame inside. It is the ‘fire of evil karma’ that is about to be extinguished, and it is also the statue of the main god trapped in the quagmire of evil thoughts! 】
【Your eyes are firmly attracted by the statue of the god, and you cannot move away even one bit! 】
[Endless evil thoughts breed from the bottom of your heart and occupy all your thoughts.]
[You just want to use your sword to kill wantonly and kill all the living creatures in this temple! 】
【……】
"Oops!"
Lin Xun was surprised to find that the senior sister was next to him...
[‘Valkyrie’ immediately took out the ‘Little Devil Shikigami Rattle’, the bell echoed, and eighteen green-faced and fanged little devils surrounded you. 】
[You hold the sword secret with your hand, the sword light flashes vertically and horizontally, and you will kill more than ten little evil ghosts.]
[The evil thoughts in your heart suddenly fade away like a tide, and just when you are about to breathe a sigh of relief, you see 'Tsukijo Murasaki' next to you with a weird smile on her face, holding a large naginata and attacking you with a sword! 】
[Not only that, the shikigami ‘Snow Girl’ and shikigami ‘Slippery Ghost’ behind you both have this expression, and they all attack you! 】
[You use ‘Dragon Sword Masamune’ to repel ‘Moon City Purple Leaf’ with one sword, and then quickly retreat! 】
[You are possessed by the body of the ‘Palace Master of Ixie Palace who worships fire’! 】
[You form a seal and recite a mantra to freeze the two shikigami who dare to attack the master, and then wave the 'Yu Zhen' to activate the 'Edict to Suppress Evil' to cancel the summons.]
[‘Moon City Purple Leaf’ swings its sword at you again. This time the sword light is extremely fast and violent. It is obviously that it used all its strength. With the bonus of the divine power, even you dare not be careless with such a sharp sword. 】
[‘Valkyrie’ shakes the bell again, and eighteen little evil spirits appear to block the sharp sword light for you. 】
[The figure of 'Moon City Purple Leaf' flashed like a ghost, and killed all eighteen little evil ghosts in just a moment...]
[It suddenly woke up, put away its weird smile, and did not dare to look at the statue deep in the temple. 】
[You should quickly exit this hall and try not to let the evil flame light affect yourselves.]
"Fortunately, I have Senior Sister following me, so I can summon the Valkyrie, the autonomous awakening girl. Otherwise, I would have returned to the city for free by now."
"It turns out that the last time Senior Sister saw the statue in the temple, she didn't faint, but was controlled by evil thoughts."
"But how did she get rid of her evil thoughts?"
Lin Xun felt extremely frightened just thinking about it, and quickly shook his head to get rid of distracting thoughts.
[You don’t know what to do outside the gate of this temple. Now there is a statue of a god in this temple that has been infected by extremely evil thoughts. As long as you step inside, you will be controlled by evil thoughts. 】
[And there is a jade wall barrier outside this hall, so you cannot leave this place. 】
[For a moment, you are in a dilemma, what is your next move?]
[1. Killing is not the only way to vent your evil thoughts. You can take off your clothes and have a frank meeting with 'Moon City Purple Leaf', enter the temple again, and use the most primitive way to eliminate evil thoughts while getting close to the statue. 】
[2. The above-mentioned despicable actions are not the way of a gentleman. How could you do such an animal thing? It is better to find ways to break the barrier and escape from this place with the 'Moon City Purple Leaf'. Otherwise, you will be discovered by people when dawn...
…]
[3. Let 'Moon City Purple Leaf' wait outside the hall. You and 'Valkyrie' enter the hall alone and order it to continuously summon little evil spirits to help you eliminate evil thoughts until you get close to the statue to see if you can get other gains.
】
There are currently six uses of the Little Devil's Rattle left.
And using the 'Ogiwara Family's Command Flag' requires a bit of soul strength. Not to mention that the current soul strength is not enough. Even if it is enough, if the movement of summoning 500 people at once is too great, there is no need to continue to explore the worship hall, and someone will be killed.
Discover.
In fact, compared to the third option, the first option can also save the number of uses of the 'Little Devil Shikigami Rattle'.
However, Lin Xun seriously suspected that the first option was a spoof of the underworld game. Even if the eldest sister was willing, the efficiency of eliminating evil thoughts was too low. In the end, the fake hand-to-hand fight turned into a real hand-to-hand fight, and the two of them still had to lead each other.
If two people enter together, the number of times the rattle can be used may not be enough for both of them. If the number of times is exhausted before they get close to the statue, then it is time to stop.
Lin Xun narrowed his eyes and suddenly thought of a sexy operation.
He put down his cell phone and summoned the Valkyrie in reality.
Then he ordered Valkyrie to make follow-up plans...
After the blond girl had memorized everything, he canceled the manifestation summons and continued the game.
['Moon City Purple Leaf' is thinking about what to do next. The evil force is too strong, and even its amplified magic cannot be dispelled...but you see the Shikigami doll next to you walking into the main hall alone.
】
[Just as it was about to reach out to the fence, it suddenly thought of the situation in this temple just now. It seems that your shikigami doll will not be controlled by that evil force...]
[‘Moon City Purple Leaf’ instantly understood your intention, it came close to your ear and whispered softly, Lord, do you want the Shikigami Doll to go to this temple to find out what’s going on? 】
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! [Seeing you nodding, it finally feels relieved and waits for the return of the ‘Valkyrie’ with you. 】
【……】
[After a long time, the Valkyrie walks out of the door and appears in front of you.]
[The Valkyrie shakes her head at you three times in a row...]
This is Lin Xun's agreement with Valkyrie in advance. First, are there any usable props or treasure chests in this hall? Second, are there any special events that can be triggered in this hall? Third, are there any clues to defeat the general.
The Valkyrie shook her head three times, indicating that none of the above three items were present, and there was only the eroded statue in the temple.
"Is it possible that only if I enter in person can the subsequent plot be triggered..."
Lin Xun narrowed his eyes. He had no choice but to choose the third option.
He was about to press the button and risk his life alone.
Suddenly I remembered a prop that I haven't used for a long time - the 'withered flower of evil'.
Open the inventory and click on the props.
[‘Withered Flower of Evil’ (special prop):…Using this prop will absorb the evil thoughts of the designated target and use it as ‘Flower of Evil’ as nourishment to continue to support this magical plant. 】
[Current evil thought reserve: 29%. When the evil thought reserve reaches 100%, the ‘Flower of Evil’ will enter the next growth stage. 】
[You take out a slightly shriveled black flower, reach out and hand the flower to the main hall. 】
[Black firelight and candlelight shot out through the crack of the door together, and the flowers suddenly erupted with an invisible powerful suction force, which continued to absorb the evil thoughts in the light like the sea embracing all rivers.]
[This suction force is so huge that it even causes the light of evil thoughts to twist and bend, continuously gathering towards the ‘Flower of Evil’, causing the flower to gradually become moist and delicate. 】
[Absorbing evil thoughts...]
[Current evil thought reserve: 33% (↑)]
[You hold the flower in your hand and try to enter the main hall...]
['Moon City Purple Leaf' didn't have time to stop you, but you stepped into this temple and looked at the statue deep in this temple...]
[There is nothing unusual about you. You even held the flower in your hand and waved to it and the ‘Valkyrie’, gesturing for everyone to enter together. 】
[‘Moon City Ziyue’ gritted her teeth and followed you in. The statue in the depths of the temple is still standing, but the evil power is gathering towards the flower in your hand, completely unable to affect other people. 】
[You lead ‘Yuecheng Ziyue’ and ‘Valkyrie’ deep into the temple and quickly approach the statue...]
[Current evil thought reserve: 57% (↑)]
【……】
[Current evil thought reserve: 73% (↑)]
[The evil power on the statue is endless, and the flowers can only absorb a handful of evil thoughts from the statue with all their strength, but this will allow you to get close to the statue safely...]
[You tried to touch the statue, but nothing strange happened.]
[Current evil thought reserve: 92% (↑)]
【……】
[Current evil thought reserve: 100% (↑)]
[The dark karmic fire suddenly flickered among the clumps of branches and leaves, as if it was changing due to the sudden dilution of evil thoughts!]
[I saw the dark karmic fire suddenly change into a pure white flame like brilliant glass!]
[You feel a trance, and the scenery around you suddenly changes.]
[In front of us is the boundless black ocean. The sea surface is extremely turbulent, and huge waves are constantly rising. Every time a wave is photographed, a swirling black mist will rise. 】
[You are very familiar with this black mist. It is the extremely powerful breath of evil thoughts, the breath of evil thoughts that comes from the ‘extreme evil consequences’! 】
[You and ‘Moon City Purple Leaf’ are both floating above the endless black sea. 】
[However, there are more than just you here. In the center of the Black Sea, there is also a sky-reaching flame that can burn the sky and boil the sea! 】
[The flame sometimes appears as bright as glass. Bathing in the light of the fire can calm all evil thoughts, and the spiritual platform will be clear, dust-free and stain-free.]
[The flame sometimes turns into a dark color as dark as an abyss. Being affected by the fire will breed endless evil thoughts, wishing to eat the flesh and blood of others and slaughter all living things in the world. 】
[Finally, the flame briefly maintained its pale color, and a vast thought poured into your mind...]
[Sir of the old god, he has known that you were guided by ‘Amasui Sakida’ and came to resist the ‘evil god’. 】
【But, everything is too late...】
[The evil god has sown the seeds of evil thoughts into the world. When the seeds bloom and bear fruit, the evil god will become the only true god. Nothing in the world can escape the control of the evil god. 】
【He and your Father God will soon be unable to struggle, and will no longer be able to protect their people.】
[The only thing you can do now is to kill the incarnation of the evil god in the world and slow down the process of the evil god corroding all things...]
[There are countless incarnations of the evil god, spread throughout every human kingdom. Now that you are the ruler of the country, you have received a trace of the evil god's breath and become the incarnation of the evil god walking in the world. 】
[But with your current strength, I’m afraid you won’t be able to compete with it.]
[You need to find a god that has not been corrupted by the evil god to help you accomplish this goal...]
[He has very little power left at this time, and there is not much he can give you.]
[Only the remaining radiance of divine grace serves as encouragement to you...]
[The pale flame suddenly releases a dazzling fire that illuminates the world!]
[Loyal apostle, your current oath status has changed! 】
[‘Canggu Tianyan’ changes to your friendly sworn camp, and the enemy sworn camp is still ‘extremely evil’! 】
[The main god who has given you the oath of the friendly party only gives you the oath camp title of ‘Agent of Yama God’! 】
[Because of the recognition of you by the ‘Canggu Tianyan’ sworn party, your special attribute ‘Emergency Fire’ will be able to be improved normally! 】
[Your equipment ‘Amaho Sakida’s Harvest Scythe’ (legendary equipment) has been released from the seal! 】
【……】
[The great light reaching the sky is dimmed and extinguished, and the pale flame gradually infects a layer of darkness visible to the naked eye. The 'glazed pure fire' is about to transform into the 'fire of misfortune'...]
[You feel a trance, and the scenery around you suddenly changes.]
[When you wake up, you have returned to this temple...]
[The 'Moon City Purple Leaf' next to you looked at you with shock in its eyes. Then it came back to its senses, knelt down on its knees, worshiped you, and spoke piously: My benefactor, no, my lord!
】
[If I am sent to you from now on, I will go through fire and water, even if I die!]
