At the same time, I traveled through time and space, I dominated the heavens and the worlds

In the trembling, crimson void, Lin Bei lowered his head slightly, looking at Hastur, who had fallen heavily to the ground.

Hastur is really ugly.

He possessed none of the divinity one would expect from a god; instead, tormented by hunger, he was consumed by greed.

This person doesn't even deserve to be called a god.
A look of disgust flashed across Lin Bei's eyes as he saw Hastur, whose attack had failed, turn around again, baring his teeth and lunging at him.

It's like a starving wild animal pouncing on its prey.

Lin Bei dodged to the side again, and Hastur grazed past Lin Bei once more, crashing into a distant stone wall.

It was clear that Hastur was somewhat enraged this time; not only did a violent impact sound come from the stone wall, but it even embedded itself in the stone wall.

The furious roar caused the stone wall to tremble continuously. Hastur crawled out of the scarlet stone wall in a disheveled state. He glared angrily at Lin Bei, clearly having also noticed that this human was different from the others.

This human is very difficult to deal with.

No matter how difficult he is to deal with, he'll still eat him!

Hastur crawled slowly around Lin Bei on all fours, looking for an opportunity to take down the human in one blow.

Hastur knew in his heart that if he didn't do this, he might not be able to kill this human.

At this moment, a faint doubt arose in Hastur's chaotic mind. He couldn't understand why a human could possess such great power. Could it be that it was bestowed upon him by other gods?
But he clearly came specifically to find him. Over the centuries, most of the other gods have perished, and the gods that still exist mostly rely on the faith of their believers to barely survive. Where would they have the time to think about him?

Moreover, with the protection of the Goddess of Prosperity, other gods would not deliberately come here to provoke him.

After all, all the gods know that Hastur is the goddess of prosperity's favorite.

So, what exactly is this human's background?
Hastur's heart grew heavy. He circled around to Lin Bei's side, his eyes narrowed, and he let out a low growl.

Just as Hastur let out a low growl, the surrounding stone walls suddenly writhed violently, and countless scarlet branches stretched out, rushing towards Lin Bei at a speed that was difficult to detect with the naked eye.

The scarlet branches neatly bound Lin Bei's limbs, and one even tied around Lin Bei's neck.

Despite being restricted in his movements and even having his vulnerable neck entangled, Lin Bei remained calm and instead looked down at the branches.

The scarlet branches didn't resemble tree roots or stones; rather, they seemed to be some kind of soft, elastic living thing. Some kind of liquid was flowing within the scarlet branches, even pulsating rhythmically in waves...

Lin Bei squinted for a moment, then quickly realized what was going on.

These are blood vessels.

No wonder, after all, this is the "uterus" of the Goddess of Prosperity, so it's normal to have blood vessels here. Besides, when her favorite child is being bullied, the Goddess of Prosperity will naturally step in to help.

Unfortunately, the goddess of prosperity has completely merged with the earth and cannot exert her full power; she can only use this meager ability to lend a helping hand.

This was nothing to Lin Bei, but Hastur saw it as a weakness that Lin Bei had exposed.

It's now!

Hastur let out an excited roar, and with a sudden burst of strength, he pounced on Lin Bei from behind.

This time he will definitely succeed. He will tear this human apart, devour his flesh and bones, and leave his remains here forever!
Just when Hastur thought he was absolutely certain of success, he saw the bound human slowly raise his head and look at him with indifferent eyes.

There was no fear or panic in those eyes, only the indifference of looking at a dead object.

Hastur's mind went blank for a moment. Even at this point, why is this human still so calm?

The next second, Lin Bei's actions answered his doubts.

With a wave of his hand, Lin Bei easily snapped the scarlet branch that had been binding him, spurting out a thick, scarlet liquid. Lin Bei then grabbed Hastur's neck with precision.

Hastur, who should have pounced on Lin Bei and torn at his neck, was instead held in mid-air by Lin Bei like a chick. No matter how much he struggled, he couldn't get any closer to Lin Bei.

Lin Bei looked at the ugly monster in front of him, smiled coldly, and used the Word of Power to "Disassemble".

The moment the word "decompose" left his mouth, an invisible force surged outwards from Lin Bei in all directions.

The surrounding slowly undulating crimson stone walls trembled violently upon impact from this invisible force. They seemed to want to resist, but it was all in vain in the face of absolute power.

The scarlet stone wall was immediately broken into countless neat little cubes, which fell to the ground like rain.

Similarly, Hastur, who was being held and suspended in mid-air by Lin Bei, was also brutally swept away by this invisible force.

Hastur, who had been struggling, stopped abruptly. He stared wide-eyed at Lin Bei, as if using his last strength to resist something.

Hastur slowly opened his mouth, and with his last bit of strength, he actually managed to speak.

"I...I won't die...my mother...will save me..."

The next second, Hastur's body shattered into countless neat little cubes, which fell sparsely to the ground.

Hastur's voice still echoed in Lin Bei's ears, but Lin Bei remained calm. He glanced at the stone walls around him, which were still being attacked by invisible forces, and chuckled.

"How come even gods have mama's boys? That's kind of funny. Your mother will save you? Let's see if your mother is capable of protecting herself first."

As he spoke, Lin Bei once again activated the Word of Power "Decomposition".

The surrounding stone walls, which were already almost completely destroyed, were cut into countless small cubes by an invisible force. Then the hole shook violently and seemed about to collapse.

Lin Bei remained completely calm. He snapped his fingers, activating the power of the Shadow Monarch. Black liquid emerged from his shadow, instantly covering the entire ground.

Under Lin Bei's control, the black liquid seeped into the ground, burrowed into the soil, and began searching for the elusive divine power.

That's right, when Lin Bei cut the branch just now, he felt a divine power that didn't belong to Hastur.

The power was very weak; if Lin Bei hadn't been so perceptive, he would have missed it entirely.

This is the divine power of the goddess of prosperity.

Although the goddess of prosperity has merged with the earth, her divine power remains. As long as her divine power remains, there is a chance to resurrect Hastur.

Lin Bei always goes to extremes, and of course he wouldn't let the Goddess of Prosperity off the hook.

He used a black liquid to track divine power; the black liquid could seep into any object, including underground.

Soon, Lin Bei actually sensed the true location of the remaining divine power of the Goddess of Prosperity within the black liquid.

Lin Bei's eyes sharpened; he made a bold decision.

This is actually one of the abilities of the Shadow King's power, which he has never used before, but now he intends to try it.

Lin Bei took a deep breath and silently recited "transfer" in his mind.

In an instant, Lin Bei sank into the black liquid. A few seconds later, he emerged from the black liquid, opened his eyes, looked around, and smiled.

Successful.

He used a black liquid as a medium to transfer from the "uterus" to the location of the "heart".

That's right, Lin Bei is now in another underground cavity.

This is much more normal than the void in Hastur.

The surrounding walls were all ordinary stone, the only difference being the heart before him, as tall as a person, throbbing and beating constantly. The heart, suspended in mid-air, emitted a dim red light, its beating echoing in the hollow. As if sensing someone's intrusion, it beat even faster.

And it was accompanied by a force that wanted to attack the intruder.

That force was extremely tyrannical and had nothing to do with goddesses. It used the most ferocious method to squeeze Lin Bei, attempting to push him against the stone wall and crush him into pieces.

Unfortunately, this force couldn't budge Lin Bei in the slightest.

Lin Bei simply observed the enormous heart with curiosity.

He now felt as if he had become Sun Wukong, as if he had shrunk and entered the belly of the Bull Demon King.

After the goddess of prosperity merged with the earth, some of her organs were still preserved underground.

For example, the "uterus," and this "heart."

The heart is the source of all the divine power of the goddess of prosperity.

If it is destroyed, then the goddess of prosperity will cease to exist in this world.

Lin Bei thought about it and felt that it wouldn't have much of an impact.

The Goddess of Prosperity's influence on this world had already become negligible a hundred years ago, and the only divine power she retains now can be used to imprison Hastur.

Since Hastur has already been killed by him, there's no point in keeping this divine power.

To prevent the Goddess of Prosperity from having a momentary lapse of judgment and resurrecting Hastur again.

Thinking of this, Lin Bei moved his wrist, raised his right hand towards his rapidly beating heart, and slowly uttered a sentence.

"Avada Kedavra".

As soon as he finished speaking, a ghastly green light suddenly flew out from Lin Bei's fingertips, twisting a few times in mid-air to form a long, ghastly green snake.

The ghastly green snake flicked its tongue and darted into the enormous heart like lightning.

The next second, red and green lights flashed alternately in the heart, and the heart beat even faster.

Ten seconds later, the divine power in his heart could not withstand Lin Bei's fatal "Avada Kedavra" attack, and his heart stopped beating abruptly, and the flashing red light gradually disappeared.

When everything in the void was shrouded in darkness, Lin Bei thought for a moment, then stepped forward and smashed his heart to open a spatial passage and return to the police station where he had started.

The place is exactly the same as when he left, and no one even noticed that Lin Bei had left his post for two days without permission.

When a policeman who knew Lin Bei passed by, he greeted him, and Lin Bei nodded in response with a nonchalant expression.
-
After passing through layers of darkness, Lin Bei's consciousness gradually returned to itself, and he faintly heard crying.

Along with that, it seemed as if a child was weakly calling out "Mommy".

"Sigh, it's no use begging me. We can't help with your child's situation."

An elderly voice rang in Lin Bei's ears, and Lin Bei suddenly opened his eyes and looked around.

He seemed to be in the home of a rural shaman, surrounded by objects for worshipping gods, and with countless statues of deities on the walls.

Beside him were two elderly people, a man and a woman, who looked at the young woman kneeling before them with troubled expressions.

The young woman knelt and wept, begging them to save her daughter.

Beside the woman was a frail little girl sitting in a wheelchair.

When I saw that little girl, a wave of unfamiliar memories washed over me.

Newcomer Lin Bei now knows which world this is.

This is the world of "The Curse".

In this world, he is the adopted child of two old people, and also a Taoist disciple. The two old people are equivalent to celestial masters, serving the gods and solving problems for people who are plagued by ghosts and monsters.

The story of "The Curse" is about an evil god and his followers.

When Li Ruonan was young, she formed a self-media studio with her boyfriend Chen Lidong and his cousin, specializing in visiting haunted houses and deciphering supernatural legends.

In another project, they arrived at "Chen Family Village," a remote mountain village inhabited by Chen Lidong's distant relatives, hoping to explore the mysterious, sealed tunnels within the village.

Here, they witnessed the secret religion of "Great Black Buddha Mother" worshipped in Chenjiazhuang and experienced a series of strange events.

During the Buddhist ceremony, the little fairy pointed out that Li Ruonan was pregnant with a daughter and said that the Buddha Mother liked her very much and that she would dedicate her daughter's name to the Buddha Mother in the future.

Li Ruonan and her two companions did not take the matter to heart. Instead, they broke through layers of blockades and ventured deep into the tunnel to investigate.

However, Chen Lidong died tragically inside, and his cousin went insane and jumped to his death after exiting the tunnel.

In a state of panic, Li Ruonan fled Chenjiazhuang and showed the police the video that Chen Lidong had filmed in the tunnel, hoping that the police would search Chenjiazhuang.

But as a result, the policeman committed suicide.

Li Ruonan returned home distraught, only to find that her parents had also died in a car accident.

Devastated, Li Ruonan suffered a mental breakdown. After giving birth, the child was awarded to an orphanage by the court.

Six years later, Li Ruonan finally passed the qualification and was able to bring her daughter Chen Letong back to her side to take care of her.

However, after Chen Letong was brought home, strange things began to happen in the house, to the point that Chen Letong's body began to show abnormalities and he was on the verge of death.

In order to save Chen Letong, Li Ruonan sought out the Celestial Master family, hoping to ask them for help.

The memory stops here.

Lin Bei slowly raised his eyes to look at Li Ruonan, who was kneeling in front of them, weeping bitterly and looking like she loved her daughter dearly. He silently curled up a cold smile.

If you were actually in this world, you would really be fooled by Li Ruonan's acting skills.

Lin Bei knew the original ending.

Her daughter was eventually taken away by the Great Black Buddha Mother.

As for why, it's because from the very beginning, Li Ruonan wanted to replace her daughter Chen Letong with her and offer her to the Great Black Buddha Mother.

As early as six years ago, the Great Black Buddha Mother expressed her fondness for the daughter in Li Ruonan's womb, and asked Li Ruonan to offer the child's name after it was chosen.

It's likely that Li Ruonan has been haunted by the Great Black Buddha Mother all these years, which is why she has developed symptoms of mental instability.

When she could no longer bear it, she hardened her heart, took her daughter back, and then dedicated her name to the Great Black Buddha Mother.

The next step is to wait for the Great Black Buddha Mother to come and take her daughter away.

But Li Ruonan seemed to have really gone mad, and suddenly she couldn't bear to part with her.

That's why he brought his daughter to find the Celestial Master's family, hoping they would ask them to drive away the Great Black Buddha Mother.

Lin Bei narrowed his eyes slightly. He knew that if he intervened, the Celestial Master and his wife would surely die. (End of Chapter)
