"Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name..."

“Give us this day our daily bread…”

“Forgive us our debts, as we also forgive our debtors…”

"And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one..."

"For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are all yours..."

Fanatical and passionate prayers echoed.

This is the huge underground cave that Chen Jiangnian mentioned, which is a hundred meters deep... In the dark and empty underground world, there is an altar like a temple.

The base of the altar is a strange monster carved from a huge stone. It lies on the ground, and its body seems to have scales or hair.

Above its "head" is the altar, and in the center of the altar, there is a "statue of god".

His body was covered with tentacles, dancing wildly, but his head was like a snake, spitting out its tongue, with cold eyes, and covered with dense scales.

Just one look at it can send chills down one's spine.

Under this statue, more than a dozen men in black were dancing wildly. They were waving their hands and feet, looking crazy and weird, and making strange noises from their mouths.

There was a person kneeling in the front, and the prayer came from her mouth.

She was wearing a black robe but no mask. She was a woman in her thirties. She had her eyes open and her head raised. She was gazing at the statue with a pious and fanatical expression, as if she was praying or shouting, with an expression of indescribable obsession.

And behind her, in the circle formed by the dancing men in black, there was a small black platform... On the platform, a small figure was lying there.

Although they were far away, Qin Jinnian still recognized her at a glance...

It’s Ningning!

But at this moment, Ningning had obviously fallen into a coma.

And below the platform where she was lying, there was a huge pattern...all of it was suddenly made up of black and red blood.

Looking along the pattern again, Qin Jinnian understood... this platform was the place where the blood of the women and children in front finally gathered!

A terrifying black fog filled the air above the platform. It was thicker and darker than any black fog Qin Jinnian had ever seen before, and filled with an evil and oppressive feeling!

The terrifying black fog made the men in black more and more crazy. They seemed to have lost their minds and just kept dancing and praying.

At a certain moment, a person in black suddenly tore off his clothes. It was then discovered that it was also a woman, because after tearing off the black robe, her slender white body was exposed to the air.

But before Qin Jinnian had time to take a closer look, something that stunned him happened...

That woman suddenly thrust her hand into her chest! Puff!

With a slight sound, blood gushed out instantly, spilling onto the platform, and some of it also stained the mask she was still wearing...

An indescribable weird feeling instantly filled the air.

But she seemed not to feel such a serious injury, and was still dancing wildly. She tore open her belly inch by inch with her own hands, took out her internal organs, and tore them aside. Then, she knelt on the ground while mumbling, bent down, let her chest face the statue, prayed, and broke her ribs one by one...

Even Qin Jinnian was stunned by this scene...

This scene was so familiar... just like the first woman's body he saw when he came to this underground...

She used her ribs to forcefully pose a "welcome" gesture! But even so, she was not dead yet. She was already barely breathing, but she was still murmuring prayers that Qin Jinnian could not hear or understand.

As she knelt down, the black fog in the sky became thicker and began to swirl and surge.

A terrible atmosphere began to spread.

And then, the second man in black robe also took action.

When the black robe was torn off, a fair body full of youthful vitality was exposed to the air.

Phew!

During this process, she did not make even a groan, but just kept praying.

Finally, but still whispering...

And then the third one...

The fourth one...

Qin Jinnian's scalp almost exploded.

Even after going through those cruel hells on earth, his heart was not as cold as it was at this moment! These people were so crazy that they tortured themselves like this? !

The vortex of black fog in the sky is becoming more and more terrifying.

The space seemed to be distorted...

Qin Jinnian suddenly realized...that he couldn't watch any longer.

Otherwise, when these people complete this strange sacrifice, something extremely terrifying and strange might appear. By then, it will be too late to leave! Thinking of this, his eyes darkened, and without hesitation, he approached the platform quickly and silently under the cover of the shadow... In fact, even if he made a little more noise, the End Cultists on the platform who were now in a state of madness might not be able to find him.

Soon, he approached within fifty meters...

He didn't know how to interrupt this strange ritual, but he knew where the key point was...

Ningning.

Ningning is what they call the Holy Seed. Because of the existence of the Holy Seed, the True God has a chance to truly descend... This is the conversation between the female dean and Teacher Xiao Wang.

Then, as long as we take Ningning away from this increasingly weird and terrifying altar... that should be enough.

Thinking of this, he took a deep breath, and then the shadow beside him began to spread silently forward.

Shadows are inherently between reality and illusion, and in such a dark environment, they are a natural protective color. It is difficult to detect if you don't pay attention... let alone when this group of people are in such a fanatical and crazy state.

Very easily, the shadow reached the top of the platform... but it was still in the two-dimensional world.

At this point, Qin Jinnian couldn't help but feel a little nervous... He had witnessed the weirdness and terror of these fanatics.

Who knows if there are other scary things out there?

In such a fanatical mood, he suddenly snatched away their most important holy seed. One can imagine how crazy these fanatics would be...

But now that things have come to this, there is no other choice.

He took a deep breath and his eyes suddenly focused.

The next moment, the shadows suddenly turned into several big hands and directly grabbed Ningning on the altar.

At the same time as he grabbed her, the next moment, a small shadow shield appeared on Ningning, protecting her tightly. Then she was pulled by the shadow and flew out directly!

Qin Jinnian didn't even turn his head back, and countless shadowy feet rushed forward madly under him. In the blink of an eye, he had rushed into the passage he had just come out of.

The voices that had been praying fervently suddenly stopped.

The next moment, a shrill scream rang out.

“Holy Seed!!!”

The next moment, Qin Jinnian heard a loud "bang" in his head. The next moment, he seemed to be hit hard, and the terrifying force made him feel as if his head was about to split open.

Even Shadow almost lost control.

His face changed drastically...

Psychic superpower? And the panel...seems to be immune only to the mental shocks of the dark world! (End of this chapter)
