Chapter 73: Resurrection at the Moment of the Descendant (Part 2)
The gaze from above was filled with a strong sense of scrutiny. After a long pause, the gray-haired old man slowly spoke, "That prophecy was indeed correct."
"Everything that happened today is fate's most sincere affirmation of the Wilson family."
He suddenly raised his hands excitedly, his face flushed: "We will use our human bodies to subvert this world."
Chen Shuang lowered her head and asked, "What prophecy?"
Shu drawled out, "It's a long story."
The talkative book just started to speak when the cover suddenly tightened. He looked up and saw the big fox next to him staring at him with a fierce look. He was so scared that he immediately hugged Chen Shuang's trouser legs.
It said quickly, "The one who brought me here is a half-baked old wizard with superb deception skills. He used me to deceive people and accidentally brought a lot of benefits to the Wilson family. He has won the trust of the elders."
"Later, these nobles grew increasingly greedy. One of them went mad and clamored to restart the world. He came to ask for his advice, but he didn't dare offer any. In his dying moments, he pointed out a location on the map to these lunatics, saying that it was the breakthrough point, but they needed to wait patiently."
"The location left behind at that time became a prophecy spoken by the Wilson family," Shu flipped through his records. "That place used to be a wasteland, and now it should be called..."
“…Iris Alley.”
It observed Chen Shuang's expression and suddenly had a bad feeling. It hesitated and said, "Could it be..."
This is truly the guidance of fate.
Chen Shuang: "It's my home."
No wonder she was targeted soon after she arrived. In fact, the Wilson family was not targeting her, but Iris Alley.
The book trembled, and it reached out from the corner of the page to hook Chen Shuang's hand, begging, "This is a coincidence. It's all the fault of the previous owner. He and I have long been separated. I am sincere to you. Please don't be angry and abandon me."
Chen Shuang: What a melodramatic love story from the 8 o'clock drama.
She pinched the Book of Creation and closed its covers with a little force, finally stopping her chattering and getting a brief moment of silence.
"I don't blame you."
The human standing on the altar lowered her eyelashes slightly, casting an indelible shadow under her eyes. She revealed a hint of interest, "I'm very interested in what's going on here."
The moment the elder of the Wilson family appeared, on the page that only she could see, the updated data and information spread out before her eyes like a stream of water, even a little dazzling.
You have encountered a "fake blank idol"
Mortals covet the power of the gods and attempt to create gods. In this carnival of desire, they desperately seek intermediaries closely related to the gods. With the power of divine items, they will seize the authority of darkness and create a brand new god.
Fortunately, their aggressive actions accidentally attracted the attention of the Night, but unfortunately, their luck seemed to have ended there.
“It’s an honor.”
An old voice echoed from the cliffs high above. A powerful elder of the Wilson family spoke, "Don't miss this opportunity today, good boy. Go! Soon you will return to the human world with the resurrection of the gods."
As he finished speaking, a shadow suddenly appeared in the gap above the cave, followed by a loud noise.
The figure jumped down from a great height, without any fear, his eyes filled with obsession with faith.
“Bang—”
"Master Priest, be careful!"
The huge red fox flew forward and stood in front of the black-haired priest, blocking the splashing red.
"This is......"
The red fox's voice was blocked in his throat by the scene before him.
It is a sacrifice.
Chen Shuang walked out from behind the red fox and looked forward, and was also paused by the scene in front of her.
Quite a magical scene.
There was no imagined bloody mess. The figure had been reduced to a pile of bones, shattered by the impact after falling from the sky. Simultaneously, a rich magical energy emanated from it, seeping directly into the ground.
The ground consumed him.
"The last piece has come together."
The elder's high-pitched voice came from a distance: "We are about to embrace a brand new future."
A huge blood-red hexagram emerged from the surface, and the snake-shaped runes that were moving back and forth began to rotate clockwise. The remaining shadows seemed to have turned into gargoyles with bared fangs and claws. A sticky traction seeped out from the surface, restricting the creatures on the ground to where they were.
Fine lines spread across the huge upright stone pillars, completely lighting them up.
The first, the second, the third...
The fourth and final stone pillar oozed out a thick grey substance, which stretched out to grab the black-haired priest standing at the center of the altar.
A chilly cold air emanated from it, freezing people's limbs stiff.
[You are using the Beginner...Intermediate...Advanced...Taboo level]
【You are using "Legendary Symbiosis"】
A magic circle completely different from the surface of the cave unfolded instantly, forming an interlaced layer of obscure inscriptions under the feet of the human priest. Two clock-shaped inscriptions rotated relative to each other, and wandering golden lines instantly climbed up the human's pupils.
The priest from the night nimbly dodged the attack of the stone pillar, his golden pupils looking towards the ground.
【Legend Reversal】
The magic power in the body is consumed at a rapid speed like a flood.
The clock that was rotating forward remained unchanged, while the clock that was rotating backward began to go back madly. With the help of the legendary wizard's power, the rapidly moving snake-like inscriptions gradually slowed down and then returned to their original static state.
"Sir, be careful!"
Suddenly, there was a sound of breaking wind behind him, accompanied by the red fox's high-pitched warning.
Chen Shuang quickly spun backward in the air to avoid the attack and stood face to face with the gray substance extending from the stone pillar.
Her eyes darkened.
There's something wrong with this thing.
The chained red fox, braving its strength, rammed its body against the tall stone pillar. Once, twice, three times, the orc's powerful physique rattled the pillar, its claws cracking the base. The gray material that stretched out shook slightly, then quickly regained its vitality, continuing its pursuit of its prey in mid-air.
A delicious aroma.
The gray matter swarmed over and began to surround the prey from all directions.
No, it's far from enough.
The red fox gritted its teeth.
The gray substance extending from the stone pillar was so strange that it could not even be offset by the High Priest's legendary magic. It even became more intense after several encounters.
Orcs inherited the bravery of their ancestors and possessed extremely strong physiques. When they fought desperately, they could unleash a power that would make even gods take notice.
If he hadn't been restrained by the chains, he would have been able to crash into the stone pillar.
The huge red fox looked at the heavy chains locked tightly under the flesh and blood on its back, and its eyes gradually became firm.
It would just hurt a little, that's all he could do.
*
"Boom—"
After the loud explosion, the stone pillar made a cracking sound, and the wandering gray matter shook and suddenly stopped in place. Then there was another loud noise, and the cracking sound of the fourth stone pillar intensified. After the third impact sounded, the stone pillar finally couldn't bear the weight, and the whole stone body broke into pieces and collapsed.
The gray substance in front of her eyes disappeared. Shen Shuang gasped for a few times and began to consciously calm her breathing and maintain her strength.
She quickly fell to the ground, searching for the red fox among the rocks.
"Sir, here..."
Chen Shuang's pupils shrank.
The red fox was soaked in bright red blood, almost covering its entire body, with flesh and blood turned inside out, especially the huge tearing wound on its back, which almost split the whole fox in half.
He forcibly freed himself from his chains, but the price was... death.
How did this stone pillar, which was about to break in two, get knocked over?
Chen Shuang took a deep breath and kept herself extremely calm.
"Don't talk for now," she quickly took out the dead wood spring ointment and applied it to the wound, soothing him, "It will relieve your condition. When we return to the temple, everything will be fine."
There is only a small amount of Dead Tree Resurrection Herb, which is not very effective for such a large-scale injury, but its strong medicinal effect can at least last for a period of time and extend the rescue time.
The red fox listened quietly. Although he did not believe that a miracle would happen, he did not refute the kindness. He moved his paws and placed his heavy head on them, trying his best to relieve the dizziness caused by excessive blood loss.
A warm hand patted the fox's head: "Remember, you can't sleep at any time, do you hear me?"
After receiving a nod, Chen Shuang turned her gaze back to the center of the cave and assured, "We will be able to go back soon."
After maintaining the magic symbiosis mode for such a long time, Chen Shuang felt a slight pain in his spiritual sea, and the magic power stored in his body was about to run out.
Sensing that the snake-shaped inscription on the ground was returning to its old ways, a terrifying suction force came from under his feet, and the magic power in his body flowed into the huge magic circle on the ground.
She murmured, "Almost."
The golden lines on the body gradually disappeared, the symbiotic magic was lifted, and Chen Shuang's pupils returned to their dark black color.
The mechanism of action here is pretty much figured out.
The page displayed by the system is enlarged in front of you.
【The Advent Ceremony has begun】
[This ritual is used to collect residual divine power to create a mimic godhead for the advent of the gods]
[Note: Please provide energy in advance. Also, please find something that is closely related to the gods as a medium. The medium you summon will determine the gods you summon, so please choose carefully.]
【Energy Module 0/1】
【Media Module 0/1】
This is a very clever opportunity.
The Wilson family wants to summon a new god. Their initial reserves are the guidance of the Book of God Creation, the power of top wizards and beast kings, but they are not clear about the medium. They can only target her based on the fallacy of prophecy and try to sacrifice the priests of the dead god to achieve the goal of shaping a new god.
The four stone pillars are designed for three wizards, her, and other tribesmen and beast kings who are used as reserves. It can be said that they are well prepared.
The gray-white statue that is about to wake up is the half-finished product of their attempt to steal the power of darkness.
In a sense, they really are going to succeed.
But…the summoning medium decided to descend upon the gods.
Using dead priests as sacrifices, or as media, might actually allow these people to create some inexplicable, half-finished new gods.
But the living priests...
"Aren't there many things related to God?"
Chen Shuang spread out her palm, and the black feather mark on her palm felt slightly hot. The next moment, a flood of purple crystals appeared in the cave, directly submerging the entire altar and piling up a huge mountain on the surface.
This was the empire that the hardworking magic ants had recently conquered. Because it was not used, it filled up several warehouses. Chen Shuang transferred all of it.
As time goes by, the magic crystals transferred from the feathers continue to increase.
The system made a "ding dong" sound.

[Congratulations, the Advent Ceremony has sufficient energy]
Congratulations! You have unlocked the achievement "No problem can be solved with money"
She took out the assembled teleportation array that she had prepared long ago and placed a pile of black stars on the floor of the cave.
The teleportation array was directly deployed, and the familiar voice reached this closed underground cave.
"It's really lively."
The devil in a suit walked out of the teleportation array. He adjusted his glasses, looked at the several noble elders on the high ground, and judged: "This one doesn't need to be exiled."
The demon spread his bat wings and said with a smile, "Just chop it up."
Even faster than the demon was a huge silver-white sword. It flew out from the teleportation array at high speed and shot straight above the cave, instantly piercing through the neck of one of the elders.
The old body fell to the ground in pain, holding his throat, and died soon after.
The silver-white angel walked out slowly, glanced at the devil lightly, and said nothing.
Devil: ...It's a provocation, definitely a provocation.
The elegant demon stretched his shoulders and neck, sharp claws extending from his fingertips. He shed his role as a housekeeper, and the demonic bloodline was already burning in his body.
"It's been a while since I've encountered such an evil human being," the upright demon said slowly, "It really makes my demon blood boil."
After a brief pause, one white and one black rushed towards the elders on the higher ground as if in a race. As their magic collided with the panicked wizard's magic, there was occasionally the sound of giant swords fighting against black magic.
Chen Shuang: It turns out that we fight as soon as we meet.
But even though the angels and demons occasionally attacked each other, they generally had the upper hand, so she looked away.
"Master Priest..."
The huge red fox, whose vision had long been blurred, made a faint sound, and Chen Shuang hurriedly moved closer.
The red fox said weakly, "Please help me convey a few words to my child, to my red star, Mars. I am an unfit father. The red fox orc will be handed over to him after he dies... I'm afraid I won't be able to wait..."
"Don't ask the adults to convey it!"
Accompanied by the sound of crisp bells, a fiery red figure rushed forward. The little fox cried with red eyes: "You will be fine. With the priest here, you will be fine."
After a while, a group of furry orcs emerged from the T teleportation array one after another, surrounding the seriously injured Beast King.
"It will be fine," Chen Shuang said, "You take him back to the Dark Temple first. The temple's blessing will ease his injuries. I will go back later to heal him."
"Before that..."
Chen Shuang felt the increasingly strong suction force under her feet, and the hurricane that began to gather and swirl around her: "I have to deal with an important matter."
She pondered, "Things closely related to God serve as a medium."
Closely related things...
She took a slight step.
In the eye of the storm, the black-haired priest stepped onto the center of the surface summoning magic circle. Like a signal, winding dark lines spread out from the center to form the symbol of the moon.
The system made a "ding dong" sound.

[Summoning God]
The wind around suddenly stopped, and then came endless thick darkness. In that darkness, there seemed to be some bright starlight mixed in.
After a long silence, the sound of fireworks bursting out in celebration rang out in the empty darkness.
Congratulations!
