Chapter 147 Evil God Statue
Chapter 147 Evil God Statue
Suddenly, not far in front of them, a rather old and dilapidated temple appeared without warning.
The temple stood there all alone, as if it had withstood the test of time, appearing weathered and mysterious.
The temple was surrounded by an extremely dense layer of black evil energy, so thick and heavy that it was almost impossible to dissipate.
It was like a thick black fog, tightly enveloping the entire temple.
Just a glance at it from afar can involuntarily evoke an indescribable sense of oppression and deep fear.
"Su Yin, what kind of hellish place is this?"
Huan Yuechu's face was terribly gloomy. She glared fiercely at Su Yin beside her, secretly wondering if she had been deceived by this guy again.
Faced with Huan Yuechu's questioning gaze, Su Yin was completely bewildered and at a loss.
"I...I really don't know! This road is supposed to lead home."
Just then, Xu Yan, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke up.
"Now that we're already here, we need to find out whether it's a human or a demon inside. Hmph, I'd like to see what exactly is causing trouble here." With that, he looked firmly at the temple entrance, showing no fear.
Filled with trepidation and unease, the group exchanged glances before cautiously taking their first steps and slowly making their way into the temple.
The moment they stepped through the temple gates, everyone's attention was instantly drawn to the towering, enormous statue of an evil god in the very center.
The statue was several tens of feet tall, and its entire body was a terrifyingly dark black.
It stood there silently, constantly emitting waves of eerie and dark light.
Upon closer inspection, the statue's face was even more grotesque and twisted, resembling a terrifying demon struggling to crawl out of the endless abyss of hell.
Its blood-red eyes flashed with a ferocious light, staring intently at anyone who dared to approach, sending chills down one's spine and inspiring fear.
After careful observation, Su Yin frowned and spoke with a serious expression.
“I am certain that I have never seen this bizarre and evil statue before, and this place is completely unfamiliar to me; I have never been here before.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the atmosphere around him instantly became even more tense.
Just when everyone's nerves were on edge, the ground suddenly began to shake violently without warning.
The tremor was like a stampede of ten thousand horses, making people unsteady on their feet and teetering on the verge of falling.
At the same time, the previously still statue of the evil god seemed to come alive and slowly began to move.
As it moved, countless pitch-black shadows suddenly appeared around its body.
These dark figures, baring their fangs and brandishing their ferocious expressions, pounced on the group like hungry wolves.
"Everyone, please be careful!" Seeing this, Su Yin's heart tightened, and she quickly shouted at the top of her lungs.
Without hesitation, he put the jade flute to his lips again and began to play.
The melodious and clear flute music instantly resounded throughout the space, although it had a certain suppressive effect on the surging black shadows.
However, the number of shadowy figures was simply too great, seemingly endless.
On the other side, Xu Yan held a gleaming longsword and swung it vigorously.
Each swing of the sword unleashed a dazzling burst of light, severing countless shadowy figures that vanished into wisps of black smoke in the air.
However, despite her sharp swordsmanship, she still could not withstand the endless stream of black shadows.
Mu Yang, who was fighting alongside Xu Yan, was not to be outdone. With a series of swift movements, he sent out a barrage of gleaming hidden weapons like shooting stars.
These hidden weapons struck the shadowy figures with pinpoint accuracy, producing a series of muffled sounds.
Unfortunately, the shadowy figures seemed completely unafraid of this attack method and continued to charge forward relentlessly.
On the other side of the battlefield, Huan Yuechu unleashed her full power of spiritual energy, and in an instant, the raging flames became even hotter and fiercer.
As the flames flickered, they devoured the approaching shadows one by one.
Wen Xingyu and the senior carefully protected young Xiao Bao and hid him in a relatively safe corner.
Just as the battle was at a stalemate, the sharp-eyed Su Yin suddenly noticed a strangely shaped symbol emitting a faint light at the feet of the evil god statue.
"Perhaps if we can destroy that strange symbol, we can successfully stop all of this from happening!"
Su Yin's face was solemn. She cupped her hands around her mouth like a megaphone and shouted at the top of her lungs.
"Everyone, look here! This is the key to the problem!"
His clear and resonant voice echoed in the empty temple, sounding exceptionally distinct and abrupt.
When everyone heard Su Yin's shout, they were slightly taken aback.
But then they realized what was happening, exchanged a glance, and decided to take the risk and give it a try.
After all, there is no better way right now, and if we don't seize this opportunity, we may all lose our lives.
In the blink of an eye, Xu Yan flashed forward, rushing towards the evil god statue like an arrow released from a bow.
Meanwhile, the others quickly dispersed, each using their skills to cover Xu Yan's advance.
Xu Yan moved with exceptional agility and skill, dodging left and right, cleverly avoiding attacks from all directions.
Some of the attacks were shaped like sharp arrows, whistling through the air as they came.
Some resembled flames, burning fiercely and sweeping towards her.
However, Xu Yan remained calm and composed in the face of these fierce attacks, his eyes fixed intently on the target ahead—the statue of the evil god.
Finally, after overcoming numerous difficulties, Xu Yan successfully approached the statue of the evil god.
He took a deep breath, then suddenly raised his fist and struck the mysterious symbol on the evil god statue with all his might.
A deafening "bang" was heard.
In an instant, the dark shadows that had been shrouding the area seemed to be startled and vanished without a trace.
Even the evil god statue, which had been emitting a faint glow, suddenly stopped emitting light and became dim.
Seeing the scene before them, everyone breathed a long sigh of relief, their faces showing expressions of immense relief.
They thought to themselves: at least we've temporarily averted this crisis.
However, just as everyone relaxed, a low and muffled roar suddenly came from the depths of the temple.
