A bead-like eye rotated swiftly, a faint golden smoke diffusing from the pupil.
As the Thousand Analyzing Hands were promoted to Star Plucking Pupil, he drew upon the Temple God Divinity and didn't even need to leap onto the altar or stretch out his hand to touch it.
He merely needed to make eye contact with the Temple God's eyes.
Humâ
Streaming light burst forth, falling upon the Fire-Eye Mystical Awe Spirit Monkey.
The very next moment.
Li Che saw that the statue of the Temple God seemed to come back to life.
The eyes of the Spirit Monkey blazed, sweeping a glance that appeared to echo the monkey's call between heaven and earth!
Li Che felt a moment of haziness before his eyes.
It was as if everything around him had changed.
As if his mind had shifted from the external world to the Heaven and Earth chessboard!
In an instant.
The colors of heaven and earth changed.
...
...
Boom!
Outside the Mysterious Temple.
An incense burner lay quietly, three incense sticks burning silently, their smoke rising straight up.
Suddenly.
Qi Yanghao abruptly opened his eyes, his hands crossed on his chest, his gaze sharp.
He stared at the smoke column rising from the three incense sticks.
He noticed that the rising smoke column first swayed to the left and then twisted towards the right.
As if it was torn apart by air currents blowing from both sides!
Qi Yanghao's hairs stood on end, he turned his head to both sides, only to see the separated fog of Strange Que gradually closing.
Qi Yanghao could even see the Temple Guardian Cursed Corpses faintly visible within Strange Que... and all sorts of bewildering illusions!
"This isn't right!"
"Why is Strange Que closing ahead of schedule?!"
"Isn't it supposed to wait until the three incense sticks burn out?"
Qi Yanghao was startled.
His heart trembled with shock!
A sudden outbreak at the Mysterious Temple!
An outbreak without any warning!
It was known that the procedure for the Qintian Observatory's Guest Elders entering the temple had always been this way!
"This is bad!"
Qi Yanghao hurriedly rushed to the incense burner.
He started screaming at the many Guest Elders who were still contemplating the Temple God inside the Mysterious Temple.
"Wake up!"
"Retreat!"
However, those Guest Elders seemed to be completely immersed in some bizarre illusion.
His shouting was to no avail!
An endless frenzy of Spirit Monkeys, excited, roaring, exploded by Li Che's ear in an instant!
Boom...
The endless perspective shattered completely.
Li Che felt a sharp pain.
The possessing Spirit Monkey, its perspective spinning wildly, finally, crashed hard to the ground.
He had already escaped to the foot of the mountain.
He strenuously, staggeringly crawled toward a standing...
A stone stele covered with burn marks and cracks.
Struggling, he raised his hand, his blood-soaked palm heavily slapped onto the stele.
Slowly, rubbing and pulling out a blood stain...
As if inscribing on the soul of the Spirit Monkey its deepest belonging.
Just because, the stele bore three characters.
"Huaguo Mountain."
Drip, drip...
Flame-like teardrops trickled from his fiery eyes.
"But henceforth."
"No more Huaguo Mountain."
"No more Equaling Heaven."
...
...
The scene fragmented.
The Brow Niwan's Star Plucking Pupil in Li Che's forehead radiated endless fervor.
His eyes, opening and closing, slowly opened.
Unknowingly, his cheeks had been moistened by tears.
Li Che was still in shock.
Touched his wet cheeks.
Felt as if he had not recovered from the scene he had just witnessed.
What was that?
The obsession of the Temple God?
But he hadn't intended to view the obsessions of the Temple God...
He only intended to absorb the Divinity Chess Piece of the Temple God.
Why?
Why could he see the lingering obsession of the Temple God?
Was it because of the Divine Skill "Star Plucking"?
Li Che did not know, couldn't figure it out, and didn't think about it.
Suddenly.
Within his chest, the Chess Saint's Dao Fruit throbbed!
His mind abruptly immersed into the Heaven and Earth Chessboard.
Only to see...
Quietly floating above the interlocking lines of the Heaven and Earth Chessboard... Your journey continues at My Virtual Library Empire
A Spirit Monkey Mask.
