r formidable physique. Now that I see you, it's true indeed. To be able to withstand the Silver Cyclone Gourd head-on... You are the first." Cang Yuan appeared about fifty meters in front of Fang Yu,...The Phantom merely glanced at the giant figure before him, then immediately pressed his head to the ground.

This was his first time entering the temple, and even more so, his first time seeing the main god with his own eyes!

Such divine radiance, such imposing presence, and that majestic figure...

This is the Lord of the Pantheon, the Twelve-winged Archgod!

The phantom's heart was filled with both excitement and endless awe, his body trembling uncontrollably.

At this moment, the eight-winged seraphim had arrived before them, standing at the feet of the main deity.

Before this colossal figure, even the eight-winged angels seemed as insignificant as ants.

The six Reishi stone lodgers stood behind it.

The Eight-Winged Angel presented the seven-colored magic stone map in his hands.

The map instantly flew into the sky and vanished.

Before the main god spoke, Meiying naturally didn't dare to speak, she could only kneel on the spot, not even daring to raise her head.

"The Seven-Colored Magic Stone… very nice."

At this time, a colossal figure appeared in the sky, seemingly emanating from the zenith. It was both distant and immensely awe-inspiring.

The Wraith trembled, nearly collapsing to the ground.

"Boom..."

Six divine rays descended from the heavens, striking the six stone guardians who housed the spirits.

Then, the six Stone-dwelling cultivators slowly rose into the air.

"Ah..."

Screams of agony erupted from the six men.

Their bodies became transparent, and every strand of mana could be seen clearly.

“Click click click...”

The spirit stones, which had already completely merged with their bodies... were forcibly pulled out!

And this process, just like tearing apart every inch of flesh and blood in the body, is extremely painful.

"Ah..."

The screams of the six people grew increasingly desperate.

When the spirit stones were pulled out, their bodies began to rot!

"Chomp..."

As the Fa Stone was completely ripped from its body, the six people's bodies... simultaneously exploded in mid-air, turning into countless blood blossoms.

This is how they used to strip people of their stone, extremely cruel.

...and the six gems, each emitting a different colored glow, were ripped away... and floated upwards along the beam of light until they vanished.

"It's a pity, one is missing." The Lord God's majestic voice sounded again.

Just then, another beam of light suddenly descended from the sky and entered the phantom's head.

After two seconds, the light flew out from the top of his head again.

The giant in front, silent for a moment.

"You killed Cangxing." the God said.

The Phantom only felt his heart burst, and goosebumps all over his body!

"Zang Xing betrayed the Pantheon, he should be killed." the Chief God said again.

Miezhao let out a big sigh.

But just at that moment.

"Boom!"

A deafening roar echoed, and the oppressive pressure around them surged instantly.

"Snap!"

The phantom's body couldn't withstand such a level of pressure at all, it was instantly crushed and exploded where it knelt, leaving only a splash of blood and debris.

"The last piece of the law stone, taken by that summer cultivator… him again." The main god's voice held no discernible emotion.

But from the sharply increased pressure around it, it was clearly very angry.

"Your Highness, may I go and retrieve the Stone of Law"

At that moment, a voice suddenly came from the front.

A celestial being with ten wings spread wide on its back emerged from a radiance of light.

“That cultivator is also searching for me and the main hall,” the main god said. “You don’t need to make a move for now.”

"Then...who does Your Highness intend to send" the Ten-Winged Divine Messenger asked.

"By my decree, I summon all temple mages to gather here." The main god spoke softly, "They have spent many years in the temples and it is time they made a contribution to show their loyalty."

"In addition, one million zombies can be summoned to march together."

Let me see, what are the abilities of these temple followers.

"Understood, Your Highness," said the Ten-Winged Messenger.

After that, its figure slowly faded away until it was completely gone.

The giant shadow and light still illuminated the entire hall.

But the shadow, who had longed for this for so long and was utterly devoted to it, had now become a pool of flesh and blood.

He never dreamed he would end up dying in the wrath of a god.

……

Fang Yu and Honglian traveled along the way, arriving at an old town called Xinan Town.

As Fang Yu approached the town, he sensed something was amiss.

The people here haven't disappeared, they've all stayed home.

Therefore, the whole town was very quiet, but not as deathly silent as the central and southern parts.

"Finally, I see a live person."

Fang Yu and Honglian descended from the sky, landing on the streets of the town.

"Since there are living people here, let's ask someone what's going on," Honglian said.

Fang Yu nodded and slowly walked to a closed shop on the street, knocking on the door.

Through his psychic vision, he saw a corpulent man sitting inside the shop, reclining on the sofa in the inner room, watching a DVD.

Hearing the knock on the door, the man's body instinctively shuddered, and the chips in his hand fell to the floor.

Then, he got up with a look of panic on his face, looking around nervously, as if wanting to run away.

"Hello, we're just passersby, with no ill intentions. We'd like to ask you a few questions." Fang Yu transmitted his thoughts to the man with his divine sense, his tone gentle.

Upon hearing this voice, the man's face changed again, but his eyes no longer held fear or unease.

He walked slowly to the front of the shop, but instead of opening the door, he shouted through it, "Who are you What do you want"

"I wanted to ask you, what's been going on lately... never mind."

Fang Yu thought about it, and still directly used his divine sense to enter the soul of this fat man, searching for memories.

In a short while, he withdrew his divine sense and turned to leave the shop.

"How are you" Honoka asked.

They had heard rumors a month ago about mass disappearances and deaths in the central and southern regions of Xirong, and they had been hiding at home ever since, never venturing out. "There's not much valuable information," Fang Yu said.

"Then what shall we do Continue north" Honglian asked.

"If there's really nothing we can do, then we can only wait." Fang Yu said.

"Wait Wait for what" Honglian's red eyebrows furrowed in confusion.

"Let's wait for the Gods Temple to come to us." Fang Yu smiled faintly.

"They..." Honglian was stunned for a moment, then as if she had thought of something, she glanced at the violet on her back.

"Saving Zang Xing was actually a good thing," Fang Yu said. "According to him, the Qicai Fashi...one less stone and it can't function at its best."

"So, Violet was taken by us, so even if he takes the remaining six Magic Stones, it won't matter."

"In the end, he'll have to come back to us and find a way to take Violet back."

"Look at him, such a bearlike figure. Does he have the guts to do such a thing" Honglian frowned.

"That's why I said, wait for the Temple of Gods to come looking, instead of hiding stars." Fang Yu raised an eyebrow.

"Then why did we run so far We could have just waited for them in Tenno City." Honoka asked.

"When facing the enemy, it's best to be proactive," Fang Yu said. "Being too passive will lead to many unforeseen events."Emperor Qiyuan, sat solemnly upon his throne, his face grim and silent.He glanced at the many ministers before him.These are all high-ranking members of the Lingjiao clan, who hold positions of power...
