Chapter 502: Crisis Resurfaces
In the mountains.
Xie Heng curled up in the middle of the formation in pain, his whole body soaked in cold sweat.
His body twitched and trembled violently, his hands clenched tightly, and veins bulged.
"Get out! Get out!"
"Get out...of my body!"
"Why struggle, my dear senior brother?" Xing Tian grinned when he saw him like this.
"Now the entire metaphysical community knows that the head of Changsheng Temple uses living people as a pillar of strength and even eats babies~"
"Those famous and upright sects must be shocked and disgusted right now. Their respected Sect Leader Xie has been practicing in seclusion for these years... but in fact, he was practicing that kind of evil magic..."
"Have you thought about how to face the endless accusations and imprisonment? Your belief in immortality, and your two children?" He grinned.
Xie Heng's eyes were bloodshot: "It's you, it's you! You planned this day a long time ago!"
"You've been planning this since the showdown that year!"
"How despicable! Aren't you afraid of God's punishment for colluding with such evil?" He spat out black blood and gritted his teeth.
"Hahaha!" Xing Tian suddenly laughed out loud, looking up to the sky, making a shrill laugh.
"Yes, you just realized it, my smart brother."
"I did it on purpose. Otherwise, do you think you could have killed me so easily back then?"
Back then, he was laughed at and looked down upon by everyone.
Yes, Your Majesty.
It was the Lord who bestowed upon him the ancient secret book, which greatly increased his strength.
Let those who look down on him all be defeated by him.
But that was just the beginning.
His Majesty told him a bigger plan.
However, at that time, His Majesty's soul had not yet fully recovered and needed a perfect container.
That's why he deliberately appeared in front of them, pretending to be defeated, but at the last moment he cut Xie Heng's arm, allowing His Majesty's soul to sneak in silently through the wound.
Use Xie Heng's body and his cultivation to nourish Your Majesty's soul.
"Don't you always claim to be a model of righteousness and incomparable superiority?"
"I want you to watch with your own eyes as I gradually transform into the monster I hate the most!"
"Watch the thousand-year-old reputation of Changsheng Temple destroyed by your own hands!"
Xie Heng's pupils suddenly contracted and he bit his tongue tightly.
Even if he dies, he will never let them succeed!
Xing Tian saw his intention and grabbed his chin.
"It's useless. Even if you die, this body belongs to you, Your Majesty."
"Don't struggle. Wouldn't it be nice to accomplish the great cause together with your junior brother?" He said in a bewitching voice.
"When Your Majesty wakes up, what will Changsheng Temple be? What will Nanshi be? The whole world will be ours!"
"You're dreaming...ah!"
Xie Heng's body twitched violently and he fainted.
After a moment of dead silence, he slowly opened his eyes.
There was a strange glint in his eyes.
"Heh." The corners of his lips curled up, revealing his white teeth.
"Your Majesty!" Xing Tian immediately knelt down.
"Welcome Your Majesty!"
Xie Heng stood up slowly, his eyes greedily scanning the surroundings. When he looked up and saw the sky obscured by gloomy energy, a hoarse laugh escaped his throat.
"Hahaha, I'm finally back!"
"Xing Tian, you did a great job!"
Xing Tian said excitedly: "I will do anything to serve you, Your Majesty!"
"Are you ready?"
"Everything is ready." Xing Tian replied respectfully.
"Let's begin!" Xie Heng suddenly opened his arms, and the whole cave shook violently.
Bursts of creepy whimpering sounds were heard in the darkness.
Tiny cracks appeared in the earth.
Countless ghost soldiers and puppets crawled out from the ground in dense clusters, with their fangs and claws bared, and hideous smiles on their twisted faces.
"Hahaha!"
“Enjoy it!”
"Humankind, your new god is coming, tremble..." Xie Heng laughed crazily, with crazy excitement flashing in his eyes.
…
Beijing City.
It should have been a sunny and clear summer day.
But since some time ago, the sky seemed to be covered with a layer of gray paper. Even at noon, only a few faint rays of light could be seen through the gray clouds.
The people walking on the street looked up with confused expressions.
"The sky is getting darker day by day."
"It's almost eleven o'clock. Usually the sun at this time is so bright that it's hard to open your eyes, but now, something is wrong."
Recently, similar anomalies have become the hottest topic of discussion on the streets.
"Not only that, a typhoon suddenly hit our hometown."
"We haven't seen winds this strong in decades."
"There was a big flood in our hometown."
The three of them looked at each other and lowered their voices at the same time.
"Although typhoon flooding is common during this season, the extent of this year's flooding is quite abnormal."
"Do you think it's really related to those ghosts as they said online?"
Originally, with the cooperation of various departments, the number of ghosts causing trouble had indeed decreased a lot, and everyone almost thought that the crisis was over.
But right now...
"Crack", something cracking sound.
Immediately afterwards, the ground began to shake violently.
"What...what happened?"
"Earthquake! Earthquake!"
"Ahhhh! Run! Run!"
Pedestrians on the street fled in panic.
Car alarms blared and screams of terror rang out.
[Ahhh, did you see that? There was an earthquake in Beijing!]
【I almost didn’t react! 】
[For your information, Beijing hasn't experienced an earthquake above magnitude 5 since the 20th century, but this time, even my home within the Third Ring Road felt the strong tremors!]
[It’s over, it’s over! The netizens’ doomsday predictions are coming true! ]
[I'm surrounded by people who are trying to grab food and supplies!]
Is it too late to stock up now?
[But I feel like this situation can't be solved by just grabbing supplies...]
[Are those things coming again?! ]
[What about the reputable and upright sects? Are they just sitting there doing nothing? Why haven't they been dealt with in all this time?]
[It’s over, it’s over. Is this really going to be the end of the world?]
【Ghosts are rampant, and the world is about to become hell! 】
[Damn it, I've been a slave my whole life, and I haven't even had a single day of real work and I'm turning into a ghost again. What the hell!]
Comments like these are emerging one after another, rumors are spreading on the Internet, and everyone is in danger.
A strong panic enveloped the entire Chinese land.
"Oh no! Someone has tampered with the town's treasure!" Fu Ming's face changed drastically when he received the news.
After the earthquake, the capital city fell into chaos, and all kinds of ghosts and monsters suddenly increased, rushing towards the direction of the talisman!
This time, I'm afraid it's for real!
If this isn't handled properly, there will be chaos on earth!
"Master, should we go back?" Tu Xiaoxiang shouted anxiously.
Jiang Xu suddenly sneered: "You want me to come when you want me to, and leave when you want me to?"
"This time, I won't leave."
She turned and looked at Fu Ming and Tu Xiaoxiang: "You go back first, I'll stay here."
"May I?"
They both nodded.
Tu Xiaoxiang said reluctantly: "Master, be careful."
"You guys should be careful too, and pay more attention." Jiang Xu took out all the talismans on his body and gave them to her.
"Don't keep the remaining talisman papers from Xuanqing Sect. Give them away."
The two of them ran out of the door. Jiang Xu turned around and glanced at the people in Changsheng Temple.
"Are you all ready?"
Her voice was calm and clear, and her phoenix eyes glanced slightly sideways, exuding the majesty of a superior.
Everyone stood up straight involuntarily.
"Notify all disciples and various sects of the Xuanmen sect that some people continue to disperse throughout the city to prevent evil spirits from harming innocent people."
"The other part of you will follow me."
Upon hearing her command, the disciples of Changsheng Temple who had hurried over were stunned and looked at each other in confusion.
But he turned around, looked at the distraught siblings Xie Xueyi and Xie You, and then looked at his uncles who seemed to have no idea that there was anything wrong with being ordered around by the head of Xuanqing Sect at such an important moment. He opened his mouth and finally nodded.
"yes!"
"Master Jiang, where are we going now?" the remaining disciple asked anxiously.
"Of course, I'm looking for someone."
Jiang Xu raised an eyebrow: "You guys at Changsheng Temple, don't you think you don't even have any personal belongings of your own leader?"
…
It's almost the end, let's sort out the final plot, I'm taking a day off today, I'll update one chapter
