Chapter 919 -923: Sheltering from the Rain in the Stone Temple

The eyes of the deities were no longer the same, they even thought they could not leave Stone Altar Island alive tonight.

Zhu Minglang looked at Nan Yuso’s arm and carefully cleansed her wound with Yinsu Sacred Dew. Seeing the delicate skin rubbed raw and bleeding naturally filled him with immense heartache.

“Does it still hurt?” Zhu Minglang asked.

“It won’t hurt unless that fellow tears me into pieces,” Nan Yuso laughed.

Goddess Qiuci, standing by, felt like she was being force-fed dog food again and simply stopped talking. Instead, she began to gather the Yinmang Stones scattered outside the Stone Altar, for with these stones, the altar could gather more Divine Blessing Power.

“That’s wonderful, our merit won’t be harmed now!” the deity official from Yaoguang said.

“Let’s hurry back. With the Divine Blessing Wall in place, the people should be able to stay peacefully in the Half Desert Giant City,” Qiuci said.

The journey back, with this illuminated Stone Altar Island, was smooth.

Zhu Minglang remembered something, so he turned back and asked the Yaoguang deity official, “Why did you keep hitting the Winter God with your staff?”

The Winter God, standing nearby, angrily pointed at Ma Yi, the Yaoguang deity official, and said, “He must have been bewitched by ghosts. What else is there to say? Please, in the future, practice more on your concentration, lest you become a lunatic.”

Ma Yi, the Yaoguang deity official, knowing his own status did not dare to respond. However, seeing Zhu Minglang still looking at him, he quietly explained, “Zhu Shou Zun, my eyes have been refined, and I can see filthy things that ordinary people cannot see. What I said before was all true; I indeed saw a face on his back, blue in color, and I also saw something hooking away one of his spirits. Unfortunately, my cultivation is not deep, and I only saw it vaguely… I couldn’t be completely certain…”

At this, Zhu Minglang’s eyes lit up.

Initially, everyone thought that Yaoguang’s deity official Ma Yi was just being superstitious, influenced by dark creatures and even had his abilities sealed, but since seeing the Yin Spirit Green Baboon, Zhu Minglang no longer thought so.

The Raccoon Demon Immortal also told him that the Yin Spirit Green Baboon must hook away one of a person’s souls or spirits in order to transform into someone else…

Thus, the bizarre behaviors Ma Yi exhibited on those nights were not because he was bewitched by ghosts, but because he saw things that others did not. In fact, it was the Winter God who was truly deluded, as he did not even realize that one of his spirits had been hooked away!

“Brother Ma, do me a favor, there’s an Ancient Yao that I need your help capturing,” Zhu Minglang said to Ma Yi, the Yaoguang deity official.

“No problem, being able to escape unharmed this time, preserving my own cultivation—all thanks to Zhu Shou Zun. If there is anything you need, just say the word!” Ma Yi, the Yaoguang deity official, readily agreed.

…

Midway, there was a stone temple.

The earth of the Seven God Territories was dotted with various temples, primarily to provide rest for those who unavoidably traveled at night. Although the Terrestrial Temples could not completely block out the darkness, they could prevent people from getting lost in the darkness and from being surrounded by demonic beasts. With the help of the Terrestrial Temples, most cultivators also had the capability to confront them.

Ahead in the desert, a dark, swirling sand appeared, similar to a sandstorm, but it was a terrifying disaster within the night desert, like a demon’s cave in purgatory. Rushing into it would only delay too much time.

Fortunately, such desert disasters did not last too long, and everyone could rest briefly in the stone temple, recover a bit of their energy, and tend to their wounds.

The interior of the stone temple was especially dry. Zhu Minglang found a comfortable spot, laid down some things, and then helped Nan Yuso over to sit there.

Nan Yuso had also been fighting frequently lately, and in the Spirit Realm, all the Ancestral Dragons, including herself, were exhausted. Now that Zhu Minglang was by her side, she no longer needed to be on constant alert, so she leaned on Zhu Minglang’s shoulder and fell asleep.

Zhu Minglang also showed signs of weariness. He tilted his head back, leaning against the pillar behind him, and closed his eyes as well.

Outside was the extreme frenzy of dark swirling sands, as if millions of fierce beasts were roaring and howling, but inside the stone temple, silence fell. There was no invasion of darkness, no pouring of cold rain, allowing everyone to feel a slight sense of peace.

Everyone had their eyes closed, waiting for the dark swirling sands to subside so they could continue on their journey, as the Half Desert Giant City still needed these divine beings to preside over it.

It was in this quiet environment that some bizarre things occurred.

The rain swayed left and right outside the stone temple, occasionally pouring down at the entrance to the temple, wetting half of it.

And in that moist area, faint footprints appeared, shallow and slowly and cautiously approaching Zhu Minglang.

The scene was extremely eerie, as there was clearly nothing in front of the stone temple.

Suddenly, the Deity Official, Ma Yi, who was sitting in the corner, half-opened his eyes.

He was merely a Godson, his power not particularly outstanding among the other deities, and he was the type that could easily be overlooked, including by some powerful Ancient Yao who seemed not to consider him a threat.

He stared at the footprints and noticed that they dried up after a few steps. Under the dim firelight, that entity approaching Zhu Minglang still remained invisible. Deity Official Ma Yi slowly wiped his fingertips in front of his eyes; with this action, his eyes immediately changed, becoming sharp and able to see the bizarre entity in the temple!

One might say it was just the drifting moisture of the rain, merely the wind picking up the dampness.

But this moisture had taken on the shape of a strange face, and at this moment, it was opening its mouth, taking advantage of Zhu Minglang’s deep sleep to begin sucking away Zhu Minglang’s soul!

Three Souls and Seven Spirits, Deity Official Ma Yi clearly saw one of Zhu Minglang’s spirits being peeled from his body, a process invisible and unfelt by everyone else!

Deity Official Ma Yi was utterly horrified.

Was this the thing that had been following them all along!

“Zhu Shou Kwan, it’s now!” Suddenly, Deity Official Ma Yi transmitted a message to Zhu Minglang.

Zhu Minglang abruptly opened his eyes. He hadn’t been sleeping, just lowering his defenses to the minimum, and not even using his Divine Sense to protect himself, just to lure out this troublesome Yin Spirit Green Baboon.

Indeed, this Yin Spirit Green Baboon would not miss any perfect opportunity to do harm.

“Close the door!” Zhu Minglang shouted loudly.

No sooner had the sound faded than the Nuwa Dragon hiding in a different place quickly set up a Rock Formation, sealing the open door of the stone temple firmly.

“Make it reveal itself!” Zhu Minglang commanded again.
