After the God summoned by the Daoist defeated the Evil God’s projection, the flesh attached to the projection was buried deep within the Shipwreck Belt, and Cui Chengze was tasked with guarding it to prevent the flesh from resurrecting.
Wu Chang looked at Cui Chengze, asking, "So you’ve been around for over a thousand years?"
Cui Chengze replied, "When the Upper God was subduing demons and monsters in this sea, I was the one who beat the drum to support His power, it’s docunted in the books."
Wu Chang shrugged and then asked, "Since you are also a God and in charge of overseeing this sea, why haven’t you stepped in to stop the New Cosmos Sect from doing their evil deeds here?"
Cui Chengze said: "Because I can’t. Most of my power is used to maintain the suppression of the Evil God’s remains; the power I can wield is less than yours and Zheng Ruiyuan’s. If I act, not only would I be targeted by them, but the suppressed remains would also be exposed."
"What I can do is secretly escort a few passengers to escape, hoping they could expose the evil deeds of the New Cosmos Sect, but unfortunately, it seems they did not succeed."
"However, fortunately, I encountered him, Cui Chengze. Within him flows the blood of an ancient royal master of Mysticism, this bloodline has been blessed by the Upper God, and it is this connection that allows to remain in his body, using his power to deal with the New Cosmos Sect."
Wu Chang looked at Cui Chengze, this old man survived despite a major accident and unexpectedly picked up an old grandpa as a companion, under whose guidance he rejuvenated and beca the number one master of Mysticism in Gao Mu Country at retirent age.
Apart from the character of the old man, his story absolutely looks like that of a protagonist in a novel.
Cui Chengze continued, "Actually, you might also feel it, the things in the sea are coming back to life, I am gradually losing the power to suppress Him. It’s good that you’re here, and you’ve summoned a powerful God with your Earthly Divine Kingdom. With the three of us combined, we can eliminate future troubles permanently."
Wu Chang nodded and said, "Let’s go, let’s see what’s going on first."
Cui Chengze waved his hand, parting the seawater to reveal a passage leading to the seabed.
The three of them reached the seabed, and the closer they got, the more urgent the calling Wu Chang heard grew, trying to penetrate his will to control his consciousness.
"Erin, is there any way to shut that guy up?"
Erin spoke in his Spiritual World, "This calling is a type of Authority, I have no way to remove Him, but I can try to cancel out the sound."
After Erin spoke, she began to chant in his Spiritual World, her chanting had no lyrics, yet it made one feel as though she was singing of a blissful pure land, where all worries could be forgotten and only joy and peace remained in the heart.
The sacred and ethereal chanting overpowered the gloomy and ominous call, and Wu Chang imdiately felt much lighter.
Following the calling forward, they saw a massive crater on the seafloor.
The crater was over a hundred ters in diater, utterly dark, not even Wu Chang’s Mystical Origin-transford eyes could see any light within; below seed to connect to an endless abyss.
Beside the pit stood a wooden carving holding a spear, clad in armor, though its colors had almost completely faded, it still appeared extraordinarily majestic, showcasing the carver’s exceptional skill.
Cui Chengze said, "This is the Upper God who once slew the Evil God; I rember the Daoist at that ti called Him Martial Star Monarch."
Wu Chang raised an eyebrow upon hearing this, no wonder a simple wooden carving inhabited by Him could chase and slaughter the projection of a God’s flesh avatar, this one certainly could fight.
Cui Chengze said, "The color on the Wooden Carving of Martial Star Monarch signifies the remaining Divine Power within it. Soon, the Divine Power on the carving will be exhausted; I won’t be able to continue to suppress the Evil God alone then, better we break the seal now and completely slay Him before He fully recovers!"
"Once I move the carving, the seal on the Evil God will be lifted, are you ready?"
Wu Chang nodded and said, "Let’s begin."
We’re already here, the atmosphere is ready, can we just leave the dungeon plane without triggering it?
"Alright!"
Cui Chengze made several hand seals and then pointed at the wooden carving, withdrawing it.
"The Evil God has been suppressed for a thousand years and is currently in a weakened state. If we can completely slay Him, we won’t need to leave this carving here."
As Cui Chengze spoke, he handed the wooden carving to Wu Chang.
"Item Na: Wooden Carving of Martial Star Monarch"
"Item Type: Consumables"
"Artifact Level: A"
"Item Skills: Descent of the God"
"Skill Description: Summon Martial Star Monarch to assist in battle, duration: 30 seconds."
"Note: Martial Star Monarch has a righteous disposition and is mighty and unyielding, if used by soone highly evil, beware of being slain by Martial Star Monarch first."
Wu Chang: ...
Upon receiving the carving, his view of Cui Chengze instantly changed.
Old Cui, look at this ss, we’re all in this together, fighting against the Peaceful Sect on the Star Jump, if you’d ntioned having such a great thing earlier, there wouldn’t have been any misunderstandings.
Before Wu Chang could thoroughly examine the carving, the entire seabed began to quiver violently, as if sothing trendous was about to break free.
Cui Chengze shouted, "Up!"
Wu Chang and Erin followed Cui Chengze, floating upwards until they reached the sea surface, only to see that the previously clear skies had turned gloomy.
The entire sea surface was eerily dark, through Inspiration, Wu Chang could sense a vast ominous presence brewing beneath the sea.
