Swallowing the Stars: Recruiting Apprentices and Getting Cash Back

Chapter 130 Beast God Statue Acquired

The Immortal Temple was poorly defended, as all the Immortal experts within had been dispatched to hunt down Ba Qi, since those of other levels would simply be easy prey. At this moment, the strongest being within the temple was only at the peak of the Realm Lord level.

Pangu's clone directly simulated his aura and transformed into Carlos's appearance.

"Palace Master, why are you back?" the temple guards asked in surprise. They knew that the Deputy Palace Master had sent out all the Immortals to search for them, and that the Deputy Palace Master should have gone to search for them as well.

"You think you can just pry into my whereabouts!" Pangu's clone glared at the guard, his powerful soul pressure instantly suppressing him.

"It was my slip of the tongue, please forgive me, Your Highness." The guard prostrated himself on the ground and hurriedly apologized.

"Hmph, keep an eye on your door." Pangu's clone snorted coldly and walked straight into the temple.

Before coming, he had already familiarized himself with the Temple of Immortality through Carlos's memories, so he would definitely not get lost.

According to Carlos's memory, the Blood Crystal vein was located at the bottom of the Immortal Temple; in other words, the Immortal Temple was for guarding the mine.

However, Norlan Mountain did not go directly to the mine, but instead went to the altar of the Immortal Temple, where the Golden Beast God was enshrined.

In the universe, these beings would be considered evil gods. It is only because humanity was kind that they did not exterminate them and destroy their civilization.

There were guards at the altar, but when they saw the deputy temple master, they immediately prostrated themselves on the ground and didn't dare to say a word.

"All of you, step back." Pangu's clone waved his hand, dismissing them.

"Yes." The guard backed away.

At the center of the altar stands a colossal statue of the Beast God, and beneath it are 15 smaller statues of the Beast God, made of jade gold, a precious material used to forge immortal divine weapons, of which there are few in the entire Blood Luo World.

The giant statue was carved by later generations to commemorate the Beast God Eagle, but these 15 statues were carved by the Golden Beast God himself. In fact, there are 18 statues in total, which he bestowed upon his eighteen descendants.

However, due to the great battle back then, the Immortal Temple only recovered 15 statues. They had originally discovered the 16th statue, but before it could be returned to the Immortal Temple, it was stolen by Luo Feng.

Those who do not cultivate the Path of the Beast God cannot see the wonder of this small statue. Humans were of lowly status in the former Blood Luo World, so naturally they did not know the secrets within, nor would they ever walk the profound path of law fusion.

For so many years, they have only worshipped these 15 statues as the remains of the Beast God, similar to the wooden statue of Confucius on Earth.

Although Pangu's avatar did not follow the path of the Beast God, it immediately discerned the profound mystery within. The seemingly identical statues actually possessed different inner meanings; the effect on the Golden Horned Beast was similar to the effect of the Chaos Stele on the human race.

Luo Feng gained a great deal from comprehending just one Beast God statue. If he were to comprehend 16 Beast God statues simultaneously, his cultivation speed would be...

It can be sped up a few more times.

Time is running out. After planning for so long, it's time to accelerate the cultivation speed of Luo Feng, the chosen one.

brush!

Pangu's clone waved his hand and collected all 15 small beast god statues. Then he took out several cosmic coins, shaped them into the form of beast gods, and placed them in the original place where the beast gods were. Pangu's clone even did a good deed by providing him with all 18 statues.

The underlying principles have also changed; it is no longer the Way of the Beast God, but a single Way of Law, which, if successfully comprehended, can directly lead to the title of King. In other words, Pangu's use of the clone technique directly elevated the Blood Luo World to a new level.

After Pangu's avatar left, the guards who were watching the altar returned and were pleasantly surprised to find that there were three more statues of beast gods. They naturally assumed that the deputy temple master had come to place the statues of beast gods.

They soon discovered that they could sense the profound mystery of the statues; they could now see traces of laws flowing within them, unlike the ordinary statues they had previously seen.

Thus, an important branch of the Immortal Temple came into being. They took it upon themselves to protect the temple and the statue of the Beast God. Unless the temple suffered a catastrophic disaster, they would never intervene, thus becoming the foundation of the Immortal Temple.

After replacing the Beast God statue, Pangu's clone headed to the underground mine. Everyone he encountered along the way bowed respectfully to Pangu's clone. As he went deeper, the malevolent energy became more intense, and the number of people decreased.

"That's not right. According to Carlos's memory, the mine wasn't this deep ten thousand years ago, and the malevolent energy wasn't this strong either." You know, we haven't even seen the Blood Crystal yet, and the malevolent energy is already so strong that even a World Lord can't bear it. If we reach the Blood Crystal Mine, wouldn't only an Immortal be able to withstand the malevolent energy?

"Never mind, I have to go down there no matter what." With the spirit of "since I'm already here," Pangu's clone continued to venture deeper.

It's fortunate that what came this time was an incarnation of Pangu, the body of a chaotic demon god. If it were the real Nuolanshan, he would have slunk away long ago.

"Ding ding ding————"

As they went deeper, Pangu's clone heard the sound of ore being mined, which meant that they were not far from the Blood Crystal Mine.

After walking for a while, Pangu's clone finally saw the bright red Blood Crystal. Many hammers and chisels were chiseling at the Blood Crystal on their own, one chisel after another.

After the Blood Crystals were completely carved out, they automatically flew towards a cave. Vast and boundless, they resembled a long river of crystals.

Pangu's clone understood that the person controlling those hammers and chisels was inside that cave.

"Who are you?" A hoarse, aged voice echoed from the cave, accompanied by an aura of unparalleled power.

"Demon God's body, grow!" In order to resist this pressure, Pangu's clone expanded the Demon God's body to a hundred feet.

"Huh! They're not from the Blood Luo World, so they must be from beyond the heavens." The aged voice rang out again, and the oppressive aura disappeared at the same time.

An old man, gaunt and disheveled, emerged from the cave. He looked at Pangu's clone with a broad smile, as if he were seeing a long-lost relative.

The moment Pangu's clone saw the old man, his pupils contracted. He recognized him; he had seen him before in Carlos's memories.

Skach, the temple master of the Immortal Temple who disappeared ten thousand years ago.

Skach was the first person to be granted the title of Immortal King after that great war, and to date, he is the only person in the Blood Continent to have been granted the title of King.

In fact, the Blood Continent has a strong foundation and is not a divine kingdom of some powerful being. It is fully capable of giving birth to a Universe Venerable. The fact that this situation has occurred is definitely the result of suppression by the Virtual Universe Company.

"You must be a genius from the original secret realm of the Virtual Universe Company to have made it this far," Skach said with a smile. Although it was a question, he was already quite certain that he was the Pangu clone.

Virtual Universe Corporation is powerful, but not just any core member can get here unscathed. Even Vice Hall Master Carlos cannot stay here for long.

This is the place where the resentment is strongest after the fall of the Beast God, who was a being like a cosmic ruler.

"You even know this, Lord of the Palace? Could it be that you have some connection with the Virtual Universe Company?" Pangu's clone asked curiously.
