"Using these guys is simply an insult to me. Now something unexpected has happened. Two tiny reptiles can break free from my restraints. They certainly can't do this on their own. It seems that someone is secretly helping them. Who is it?"
The black statue slowly returned to the altar, then looked at Village Chief Leigu and said, "My people, that silver light just now was my work. There is no need to be surprised."
"My God is mighty!"
The black statue's mouth curled up strangely. He looked at the village chief, Regu, and the other villagers and said, "My people, I have sensed your loyalty. To reward you, I intend to give you another great opportunity!"
"Great fortune?"
Village Chief Lei Gu's face was filled with surprise. He bowed his head deeply again and said, "God, your people will always be loyal to you!"
"Alright, everyone, get up. Come in together and stand around the altar here."
The black statue stood aside, watching Village Chief Regu and the villagers slowly walk in.
"Now, you all must relax your minds. I will grant you the light of the altar, cleansing your bodies and enhancing your talents!"
"Improve your talent?!"
The villagers were filled with shock and surprise as they approached the altar.
Seeing everyone standing around the altar and surrounding it, the black statue nodded in satisfaction, with an imperceptible smile on the corner of his mouth.
"Relax your mind and prepare to accept the last moment of your life!"
The black sculpture let out a creepy laugh, causing everyone's faces to suddenly freeze.
Village chief Lei Gu was also suddenly stunned and couldn't react.
Wow—
The next moment, the black statue gently waved its hand, and the smile on its face became even more cruel. "Humble reptiles, be my tonic for once! It is your honor to be my tonic!"
A gray light suddenly burst out from the altar, shining directly on everyone present. In this dark night, everything was so quiet.
The black statue opened its arms, its face full of enjoyment.
But for Village Chief Leigu and the villagers, this is not entirely true.
"Ahhhh...my hand!"
"What happened...ahhh...my feet..."
The gray light enveloped everyone, and the villagers covered by the gray light discovered in horror that their bodies were gradually melting under the illumination of the gray light, just like ice encountering fire!
"No, no, no! Village chief, save me!"
Lei An's face was filled with fear, and he reached out to grab Lei Gu and yelled.
The rest of the people were exactly the same as Lei An, struggling with fear on their faces, but they could only helplessly watch their bodies continue to melt in the gray light!
Village Chief Lei Gu lowered his head and looked at his gradually melting foot. He finally regained consciousness. He then raised his head and looked at the black statue. He asked tremblingly, "My God, why... why is this happening?"
"Hahaha! You lowly reptiles, do you think you're worthy enough for me to cleanse your hair and marrow and improve your talents? You reptiles are not worthy! Become my nourishment, it's your honor!"
The black statue laughed more evilly, and he clapped his hands together lightly, speeding up the speed at which the gray light devoured the villagers.
"don't want……"
“Help…”
“Save me…”
Cry of despair was heard one after another, and finally all turned into silence and disappeared into this world.
"It's your honor, lowly reptiles!"
Above the altar, a gray light was swirling. After a while, the gray light began to reveal a hint of blood.
"Hmm... the vitality of dozens of reptiles is simply too little, almost like nothing. What a pity! I've raised you for so many years, but you only have this little bit of use. You're such a waste!"
The black statue seemed extremely dissatisfied. He stretched out his hand and clenched it gently. The gray light directly melted into his body and finally merged into one with his body.
"Hmm, so little energy and blood, so little nutrients! I need more nutrients to recover!"
The black statue stomped his feet lightly, and his entire body shattered into pieces layer by layer at this moment.
Papapapa--
As the cracks grew larger, the surface of the black statue finally shattered completely, revealing the figure inside.
This was a completely black shadow with a face like the black statue, but it was strange that this body was not a physical entity!
"Damn it! When will I be able to rebuild my body? Thor, one day, I will make your soul disappear!"
With one palm strike, the Thunder God Altar was completely destroyed, and along with the entire Thunder God Village, it turned into nothingness.
Leishen Village, which had existed for so many years, disappeared into nothingness overnight.
…
Gu Yuan felt a little dizzy.
At this moment, he didn't know where he was. He only knew that his body was in pain. It seemed that two of his ribs were broken, making him breathless with pain.
He opened his eyes wide and looked up at the sky, but the dazzling sunlight made him squint.
"Where...was the system taking me?"
Gu Yuan knew that he should be fine. It was night before, but now it was daytime, which meant that he was definitely not caught up.
"Have helped the host escape from the danger zone."
The system's voice sounded faintly in Gu Yuan's mind.
"Thank you, Brother System, for your help. If it weren't for you, I would have died. As expected, at the critical moment, we still have to rely on Brother System. Brother System, you are the only one who can be relied upon!"
After Gu Yuan flattered the system for a while, he slowly took out a pill from the ring, then gritted his teeth, raised his arm, and put it into his mouth.
He endured the pain and started to practice the Wanhua Devouring Soul Technique. After a while, Gu Yuan felt that the pain in his chest had eased a little. He turned around with difficulty, then slowly stood up with his hands on the ground.
"Holy shit! Where is this?"
It's a wasteland!
Gu Yuan looked around and was shocked by the scene before him.
"Desert! This is actually a fucking desert!"
Gu Yuan couldn't help swallowing. No wonder he felt so hot.
"Brother System, I was just praising you. What the hell are you doing? Why did you bring me to the desert?"
Gu Yuan was speechless. He was afraid that he would die in this endless yellow ocean.
"Just escaped from the tiger's den, and now I'm in the wolf's den!"
Gu Yuan felt like crying but had no tears.
He checked his space ring and fortunately there was a lot of fresh water in it. Thanks to Gu Yuan's usual habit of preparing for a rainy day, he didn't have to worry about water this time.
