Chapter 529 The dead return to the Kingdom of God, and the living return to the earth!
Among the large workshop buildings that were torn apart.
The two of them looked up at the sky, looking through the dense fluorescent vines, paying attention to the shadows traveling from another world.
This term's Ten Thousand Snake Priests are a little nervous. After all, they are calling for a god from ancient times.
But Topa seemed very silent.
He did not say that in the remaining broken images he saw inside the bone demon's brain, although this god was ancient, he did not seem to be a righteous god.
But even if you believe in and summon an evil god from ancient times, what does it mean?
Can things get worse?
In order to survive underground, they devoured each other, and therefore suffered divine punishment, not even being able to return to the Kingdom of the Creator in their dreams.
They are about to become extinct and disappear into this dark underground, and no one knows.
"Buzz~"
There was a faint shaking sound in the air, and a ray of light fell from the sky.
But it was blocked by the vines that shrouded the city of divine heritage. The powerful life force field seemed to block the prying eyes and penetration of outside forces, preventing another existence from entering.
The last generation of snake priests was a little confused: "Blocked by... a barrier?"
The bone demon's head on the altar was obviously stunned for a moment, how could the real god be blocked so easily.
But Topa reacted quickly: "Open!"
Topa didn't know what method to use, but he only saw the huge eyeless basilisk in the snake meat workshop moving, and its body of several hundred meters was reaching higher.
The vines hanging high in the city sensed something and quickly opened a gap, and the light immediately fell from the dream world and landed above the altar where the two summoned it.
The light turned into a huge shadow.
It was a shadow wearing a black robe and holding a sickle, but it looked a little frail.
The two people below looked at this ancient and powerful form. Even though the shadow was a bit illusory and uncertain, they still felt that it was extraordinary.
The bone demon head spoke, and the exposed upper jaw and lower jaw collided to make a sound.
"Are you the great god of knowledge, the god in a bottle who can give people eternal life?"
However, when the little ceramic man enters the human world, the first thing he can’t wait to ask for is a sacrifice.
Because it feels that when it appears in the human world in the form of a spirit body, without the protection of the body, it feels like being skinned.
Severe pain came from all directions, and the spirit body was about to turn into smoke and disappear in an instant.
The little ceramic figure made a loud voice: "Sacrifice!"
Of course, the person who summoned it had prepared sacrifices in advance, which were all kinds of extraordinary materials.
The little ceramic man turned into a storm, swallowed up these extraordinary materials, and then recovered bit by bit.
In the shadows.
The pieces of ceramic fragments were pieced together again and merged into a small ceramic figure.
As long as it has a shell, it can exist in the human world again.
Moreover, the outer shell has been repaired, and the seal that Annu placed on it has disappeared. It can open its own storage space, and immediately has many means.
The little ceramic man felt more at ease and looked at the two beings who summoned him.
"mortal!"
"Why have you summoned me?"
The two snake priests of the underground snake people carefully observed the shadows above, and finally looked at each other. They seemed to have seen the same problem.
The little ceramic man didn't make any secrets and spoke directly to the two people.
"That's right."
"mortal."
"Just as you think, I am very weak now."
The little ceramic man opened his hands and looked down grimly.
"But no matter how weak I am, I am still a god."
After saying that, he said mockingly.
"How did you two guys do it? This accumulation has exceeded the third level."
"How come you don't even know how to use the power of the complete curse seal, and you don't even know how to activate the spirit of the curse seal?"
The era when these snake people entered the underground world was too long ago. At that time, the snake people had not yet mastered the method of entering the third level.
Although they borrow various props left over from the ancient times underground, people like Topa can still obtain some incomplete inheritance by appropriating treasures such as the Bone Demon's head.
But let alone getting some understandable pictures and some incomplete inheritance by chance.
Even if you directly obtain the complete magical arts and inheritance from the ancient times, many inheritances cannot be used in this era if they are not modified.
Topa asked: "Are you really a god?"
The illusory shadow: "Of course it's a god, a mortal!"
"Only the name of a god has eternal power."
"Only gods can respond to your call across two worlds."
"Although I have fallen into weakness due to sleeping for too long, as long as you offer me enough sacrifices, I can regain my status as a god."
The little ceramic man knew at a glance that these two guys wanted something from him, so he spoke half truthfully and half falsely.
"Whatever you want, I can do it for you."
Seeing this situation, Topa smiled instead.
If an intact god is invited, there is a high probability that their request will be ignored and ignored, and they will not be able to pay the price.
Topa knew what kind of sacrifice the evil god was talking about, which was why he summoned him.
He said without hesitation: "I can dedicate all the spirit of this city, past and present, to you."
Although the inheritance was cut off, even the third level has not appeared.
However, the three monsters that appeared in the city, namely the Cursed Shadow, the Corpse Mountain and the Ten Thousand-Eyed Snake Man, had accumulated huge amounts of divine blood, and they had become three huge, weird living props.
Topa talked a little about these three kinds of sacrifices, and the little porcelain man was almost drooling.
The little ceramic man didn't expect such a good thing. It had hit a wall several times before, but this time it finally got lucky.
It suppressed its impatience and said calmly.
"Dedicate them to me, and I will grant your wishes."
"What is your wish?"
Topa: "Let all the spirits of this city enter your kingdom, or let them enter the kingdom of the Creator."
Where does the country for ceramic villains come from to accommodate them, but the latter condition is not difficult.
It is really too simple to devour these guys with the four-point secret technique and then release their dreams of life back to the Kingdom of Creator God.
If you get the three sacrifices from Topa's mouth, it will be not far from the fourth level, and you may be able to condense the death monarch form here at once.
The little porcelain man has suffered a lot of losses recently, so he is also showing off his cleverness.
It does not say that the other party's wishes will be fulfilled in that form, so that the other party can truly see through one's abilities and situation.
Ceramic villain: "Okay!"
Topa hesitated for a moment, then said: "There is one more wish!"
The little ceramic man said impatiently: "Mortal, you really have a lot to do!"
"This is the last one."
Topa: "Before making this wish, I would like to ask a question."
"Please tell us, are there any snake people on the earth?"
Ceramic villain: "Of course there are snake people on the earth, they are everywhere, too many to count."
Topa immediately said: "Then please guide the underground snake people to the earth. This is my last wish."
The little ceramic man didn't think much about it. He just wanted to become stronger quickly and have the power to protect himself.
"The contract is established!"
"mortal!"
"When you have prepared the sacrifice, recite my name."
The shadow of the huge Death Lord dispersed and retreated into the background.
It looks like you have retreated into a dream world.
In fact, there is no way the little ceramic man dares to go back, it just hides.
In the corner of the city of divine heritage.
A small ceramic figure appeared, and this is its true appearance.
The little ceramic man Naproses looked up at the fluorescent vines.
"What the hell is this place?"
"A strange force keeps trying to penetrate the body?"
What Naproses was talking about was the power emanating from the fluorescent vines.
In fact, the life radiation here is relatively low. Although ordinary people cannot survive, powerful intelligent and powerful people can still resist it.
Unlike the center of the vines, which is simply a forbidden area for wisdom species.
But Naproses didn't pay attention to it. No matter where it was, it was a good place that could get him out of trouble.
"Just in time, the body of the Death Lord can be condensed here in one go!"
The body of this little ceramic figure is still too weak, and it has also embarked on the path of the little man in the bottle.
I want to change my body.
"I'll see who dares to come then..."
But after thinking about it, even if the little ceramic man condenses the body of the Death Lord, he still can't defeat those guys.
It could only say: "When the time comes, I will run very fast, let's see who can catch me."
——
In the snake meat workshop.
The ancient serpent priests and the current serpent priests worked separately and began to prepare for the sacrifice task.
The current Priest of Ten Thousand Snakes drove the giant Ten Thousand Eyed Snake Man away and returned to the temple in the Cave of Ten Thousand Snakes.
Topa's eyes in the skull of the bone demon also lost their luster, and he was completely immersed in the world of consciousness.
Topa, the eleventh generation of snake priests, forcibly summoned up the spirit that had been exhausted to the limit, communicated with the city's ritual magic circle, and wanted to help this generation of snake priests to deal with the other two monsters in the city next time.
, provide him with help.
"puff!"
"puff!"
"puff!"
One altar after another in the city lit up, like a burning fire.
At the same time, it also transmits the power of the ritual array to distant places. This snake meat workshop is the center of the city, and Topa controls everything.
But as consciousness was transmitted through the ritual formation, Topa's will gradually dispersed, and he gradually began to fall into some kind of memories or even hallucinations.
In a daze, he seemed to have returned to more than nine hundred years ago.
He was also the eleventh generation priest of the city.
At that time, the city also fell into collapse and despair, and the most terrible famine and plague broke out.
People came to the temple to beg him.
"Master Priest of Ten Thousand Snakes!"
"Please save us."
"Aren't you a priest?"
"You represent the gods!"
"Tell the gods, tell the great master of life."
"Tell Him and let Him save us!"
Unfortunately, he can neither represent the gods nor communicate with them.
He could only stand under the statue, as if he and the statue had turned into a sculpture.
He couldn't speak out and said there was nothing he could do.
After a while.
The picture becomes another person's life.
It seemed to be a city at the foot of a mountain. There was a temple built on the top of the mountain in the distance. The mountain was so high that it was higher than the clouds.
Looking up, you can see the sun shining on the top, and the temple is glowing in the sunlight.
Not far away, there is a clear salt water lake with no visible edge.
But as soon as the scene changed, the originally sacred mountain temple became covered with clouds and shadows.
A terrifying silhouette of a god appeared behind the mountain, and countless believers lay at the foot of the mountain, kneeling and praying toward the top of the mountain.
"O great god of knowledge!"
"..."
The scenes alternate back and forth, sometimes from ancient times and sometimes from the present.
Topa couldn't tell whether he was the snake-man Topa or a priest from some ancient cult.
I don’t know how long it has been.
The huge Ten Thousand-Eyed Snake Man finally prepared everything and returned here again, and at the same time awakened Topa from his fantasy.
The eyes inlaid on the skull of the Bone Demon slowly lit up. He looked at the Ten Thousand-Eyed Snake Man who was approaching, but said something completely irrelevant.
"I heard from people in the past that if you raise your head at night, you will see stars."
The visitor said unceremoniously: "That was above the ground, and this is underground."
"There is no sun, no moon, and no stars here."
now.
The last generation of snake priests had prepared everything, with extremely serious expressions.
"It's already this time, can I ask you a question?"
The Bone Demon Head looked at him without speaking, but was waiting for his question.
"That day!"
"Why did you open the barrier and attract fluorescent vines to cover the entire city and trap us here?"
He can never forget it.
When a disaster breaks out, the guy in front of him who controls the center of the entire Divine Heritage City is not trying to save everyone.
Instead, they completely sealed off the city, watched them devour each other, and watched the city turn into a dead city.
That horrifying and desperate scene still feels like a nightmare when I think about it.
Topa: "You understand."
He said: "I want to hear what you have to say."
Topa said: "After you go out, you will devour all the other snake people."
There was no expression on the bone demon's head, except for the upper and lower jaws slapping together, making a cold sound.
"Whether it's a curse or a corpse eater, no one can get out."
"You can only stay here."
"I can only trap you here and watch you eat each other until there are only three monsters left."
When he said this, the Bone Demon's head froze.
"No, there are only four of us monsters left."
The last generation of snake priests: "I don't know if you are a good person or the most evil evildoer."
"You are so cruel and so cold-blooded."
"You don't let others go, and you don't let yourself go either."
"What kind of guy are you?"
Topa didn't know how to answer, because sometimes he didn't know what he was doing.
He was just driven by fate and did what he thought he had to do, but in the end it ended up like this.
"I don't know either."
The eyes embedded in the skull of the Bone Demon became dim.
"Perhaps I am no longer a human being, and my name is not Topa."
"From the day I became the Priest of the Serpents, I was no longer alone."
"In this world, names really have magic power."
"Not just the name of the god, but also the name of the Serpent Priest."
"When I became this name, I gradually became another person. Even if there are memory fragments of another person in this head, it cannot take away the power brought by this name."
"I can't say I can't do it, I can't be weak, I can't retreat, I have to hold on."
"Because I am everyone's last hope in the darkness."
"I must do... something that is in the interest of all the underground snake people, no matter how cruel and cold-blooded it is."
"I must do the same."
"Because I am the priest of all snakes."
Topa looked at the ten-thousand-eyed snake man in front of him and asked him.
"You can understand."
"Yeah?"
The last generation of snake priests listened quietly to Topa's words and remained silent for a long time.
When he finally spoke, his voice suddenly became relieved from being cold before.
He looked at the bone demon's head in front of him and kept shaking his head.
"I can understand, but I can't do this to you."
He called out the other party's name very solemnly.
"The eleventh generation snake priest—Toppa!"
"You were once the greatest serpent priest."
"However, the people who come after this city will not thank you, and the snake people in the underground will not thank you either."
"We can't thank you enough for allowing us to survive this millennium, in this way."
After saying that, he completely turned around and walked towards the depths of the city without looking back.
——
A battle broke out in the City of Divine Relics.
After the last generation of snake priests left the snake meat workshop, they launched a battle against two other monsters in the city.
This time it is no longer the petty fight before, but a fight to the death.
When walking along the avenue to the center, the last generation of the Ten Thousand-Eyed Snake Priests driving the Ten Thousand-Eyed Snake Men stopped for a moment, then accelerated crazily.
Then, his tail rolled up a building and smashed it towards the Corpse Temple in the distance.
"Boom!"
In ashes.
The huge mountain of meat jumped up and crashed towards the ten thousand-eyed snake man.
Each of the heads on the mountain of meat let out ugly shouts and drooled from their mouths.
And its speed was so fast that only its afterimage could be seen. As soon as its voice arrived, its shadow also arrived.
But before it hit the Ten Thousand-Eyed Snake Man, the densely packed eyes on the Thousand-Eyed Snake Man's chest and neck opened.
"boom!"
The huge force ejected the meat mountain and pushed it deeply into the distance.
At this time, the cursed shadow composed of dense black lines rushed out and pounced on the ten thousand-eyed snake man.
"ah!"
After a scream.
The Thousand-Eyed Snake Man felt unable to move, and at this moment, the mountain of corpses rushed up again.
The huge mountain of meat wrapped around the Ten Thousand-Eyed Snake Man, trying to devour it.
suddenly.
A ray of light broke through the power of the cursed shadow, and Topa also used the power of the ritual circle to help the opponent.
Immediately, he saw the ten thousand-eyed snake man tearing apart the body of the mountain of zombies and getting out of it.
The heads on the mountain of corpses screamed in agony.
But even so, they are still eager to eat, eager to devour the Ten Thousand-Eyed Snake Man.
"Eat him!"
"Swallow...swallow..."
"hungry……"
"We are so hungry..."
"The aroma of flesh and blood..."
The Thousand-Eyed Snake Man continued to create wounds one after another on the mountain of corpses, and the cursed shadow penetrated into the Thousand-Eyed Snake Man's body, seeming to want to control him and devour his will.
But the figure driving the ten thousand-eyed snake man seemed to be crazy. One of his hands was bound by dense black threads, and the other hand was frantically attacking the mountain of corpses.
Completely without regard for life.
The last generation of snake priests, who grew on the forehead of the snake man with ten thousand eyes, roared with hatred.
"Eat, eat, eat, I let you eat!"
"Let you eat enough!"
"And you, and you too!"
"Kill you, kill everyone, and let it end!"
"Let's all die!"
At this moment, all the eyes on the giant snake man opened.
The surrounding area was swept by a terrifying spiritual storm, and the dust turned into a tornado and flew up tens of meters.
Among the ashes, three monsters were entangled together in the ugliest posture, making all kinds of inhuman screams.
Biting each other and fighting desperately.
This fierce battle lasted for most of the day. The three monsters destroyed most of the city. The battlefield was full of blood and pieces of flesh. It looked extremely terrifying.
In the end, the last generation of snake priests who controlled the snake-men with ten thousand eyes won.
A miserable victory against two.
He dragged the shriveled mountain of meat with both hands and walked toward the other end of the city.
All the eyes of the Thousand-Eyed Snake Man were bleeding, and there were dense holes in the body that were torn apart by bites, and there were also gaps opened by thin lines.
A huge swollen sarcoma grew on his neck. The terrifying shadows in the sarcoma kept peeking out, making sharp roars, and then the eyes on the sarcoma were pushed back.
In the end, all the power of the cursed shadow was also worn away, and it was temporarily unable to recover and fell into a deep sleep.
While walking on the road.
The figure on the forehead of the Thousand-Eyed Snake Man sang that song again.
This time, no one bothered him anymore.
"Fell into darkness, unable to see the light."
"God, why did you punish us into this dark world?"
"Ahem!"
But he was very tired. He no longer had the rich voice he had when singing before, and he was still coughing when he took a breath in the middle.
Because blood was oozing from his eyes, nose, and mouth.
"Fell into darkness, unable to see the moon."
"God, when will you be able to forgive the sins of the snake mother?"
"Fell into darkness, unable to see the stars."
"God...cough cough cough..."
"When can I bathe in the wind in the forest and sing in the sun?"
"..."
He staggered and finally came to the Ten Thousand Snakes Workshop.
The altar ceremony that had been prepared for a long time started again, and they began to summon the "ancient gods" again.
The Thousand-Eyed Snake Man took the mountain of corpses, the cursed shadow, and stood on the altar together with himself.
Because, he himself is also part of the sacrifice.
He was extremely tired at this time. Even though he was stronger than the other two, he couldn't bear the power of this living prop being used so violently.
His body was completely eroded by this living prop, and his consciousness completely collapsed.
He sang just now because he wanted to use his singing to maintain his last will.
now.
He closed his eyes and weakly opened his mouth to ask Topa, who controlled the ceremony and altar.
"Topa!"
"Is this really going to be over?"
The voice became smaller and smaller, like a whisper in a dream.
"Can the dead return to the kingdom of God, and can the living return to the earth?"
Topa opened his upper jaw, as if he wanted to say something.
But it was too late to say it.
Because after the other person closed his eyes and said those words, the shadow that originally grew on his forehead began to shrink, and finally merged into the body of the huge ten thousand-eyed snake man.
The last generation of Ten Thousand Snake Priests also became a pair of eyes on the Ten Thousand Eyed Snake Man.
This living prop has lost control like a machine and can no longer move.
At this time, a shadow appeared again on the altar.
In the end, the consciousness in the skull of the bone demon could only look at the summoned "god", and they placed their last hope.
"The great god of knowledge from ancient times!"
"Please accept our offerings to you."
"Gifts are not heavy. They are not just humble things to the gods."
Topa's voice became hoarse at this time, and he almost roared at the end.
That feeling.
It's like a lonely beast that has lost its hometown, family and everything.
"But that's all we have."
"Please!"
"Fulfill our wishes."
"Eat our undead souls who are forever imprisoned in darkness, and send our living ones to the land where the sun shines."
"We don't ask for much, that's all."
Light and shadow condensed in the void, and the little ceramic figure appeared on the altar.
The huge palm was pressed downward through a ritual, accepting the sacrifices offered to it by the underground snakemen.
The terrifying black shadow swallowed up the sacrifices on the altar, and finally turned into a huge black cocoon.
That is the egg of the Lord of Death.
If it can be born perfectly, it will be a fourth-level apostle as soon as it appears.
The little ceramic man stood on the cocoon and felt a steady stream of power pouring into the cocoon, and the cocoon had a subtle connection with himself.
That is its new body, a more powerful body.
The ceramic villain was very satisfied, especially because the other party appeared so promptly.
It looked at the Bone Demon's head on the other side and said to him.
"mortal!"
"God will not sympathize with you. God only cares about interests and harms. God does whatever he wants."
"My favorite thing is to give people despair, but unfortunately, your despair is not from me."
"You have fallen into the abyss of despair and left me with nothing to do."
"This is not interesting."
The little ceramic man thought about it for a while: "Then this time, let's play a game of equal exchange and try a new game."
"After all, even gods sometimes need humble mortals to complete some small tasks, not just to put on a good show."
"Also, don't call me the God of Knowledge or the God in the Bottle except for rituals."
"I allow you to call me - Lord Naproses."
After saying that, the little ceramic man turned his attention to the black cocoon he had just created.
Naproses felt the black cocoon under his feet continuously devouring power, and the Death Lord's egg became more and more mature.
It could no longer hold back its excitement and anticipation, and said loudly.
"I am Naproses, the lieutenant of the abyss!"
"The existence on the side of the throne of original sin."
"Just wait, I will return to my master in my strongest posture and complete the mission entrusted to me by my master."
This is the identity that Naproses is most proud of.
It was once an existence beneath one person in the abyss and above ten thousand people. It was given by the God of Original Sin as soon as it was born.
Before it fell to the earth, it had always been aloof.
It misses that time so much.
At this time, another group of people came into the City of Divine Heritage.
"Swish, swish, swish!"
Only the vines wrapping around the edge of the city were seen in the distance, being pulled open like a huge curtain.
A tall woman in the shape of a god walked in. On her coarse robe was the imprint of an organization that was quite famous on the giant island of Ruhe.
Behind her, a snake girl is holding a sphere, which emits a shield to protect her from external radiation.
The two of them raised their heads and saw the huge black egg in the center of the city.
There is also the monster who is shouting, I am the deputy lord of the abyss.
Yin immediately frowned. She didn't expect to hear this familiar name deep in the ground.
"abyss?"
The loud movement of the fluorescent vines opening the door for him naturally attracted the attention of the only two beings left in the City of Divine Heritage.
Two lines of sight focused on Yin's body at the same time, and automatically ignored Yingying behind him.
The shadow on the Death Monarch's egg looked over and locked onto Yin: "Who is it?"
After seeing it clearly, Naprosai suddenly became excited and exclaimed.
"Shadow of God?"
The skull beside the altar looked into the distance: "The fluorescent vines opened the entrance for outsiders?"
