Damn it! Let’s smash the darkness together!

Chapter 1486 - 215: Decayed Lotus Pool, Summoning Ritual

Bang~ Suddenly, an explosion sounded from behind.

Xu Shu turned back and saw Xiao Ya approaching but unable to enter the pagoda, as if she’s hit an air barrier at the entrance.

She was gesturing wildly, but she couldn’t come in, and her voice couldn’t reach inside either.

This mysterious fluctuation seemed to seal the space, sealing the entire pagoda, preventing those outside from entering and those inside from leaving!

"Oh?" Xu Shu’s eyes narrowed at the sight, thinking it might be a trap by this No-Life Mother.

Space sealing, looks like some sort of array... huh!

Is it comparable to the church of the "Dark Mother Goddess"?

Try stopping me, Great God Jiu Yi!

Without hesitation, he instantly took a crabstep, aiming to walk out with the "Nine Wears One" stance.

At this moment, No-Life Mother seemed to see through Xu Shu’s intentions and laughed revealing yellow teeth: "Want to leave? Is it too late? Heaven, Earth, Wind, Thunder, Water, Fire, Mountain, Marsh! Eight Lotuses Summon! Mother appears, void descends!"

She shouted in fury, uttering trembling mysterious syllables.

Instantly, the surrounding eight lotus lamp columns devoured the nearby believers.

Blood and flesh splattered, ancient words of "Qian Kun Xun Zhen Kan Li Gen Dui" emerged glowing on the lotus lamps.

The empty gap at the lamp’s wick resembled a kind of cardamom mouthpiece, opening wide, as if unsatisfied after devouring humans, waiting for a perfect fit for some treasure.

Wow!

Wow!

In the void echoed strange baby cries, no, more like the cries of an ’embryo’ about to be born!

Under this intense malice, Xu Shu shivered internally, wasting no time, he dashed aside.

Swish!

The "Great God Jiu Yi" once more exerted power, he traversed the pagoda’s obstacles, ignoring the space sealing, arriving straight outside!

"Come out quickly, this is the Eight Diagrams Summoning God Array. Once activated, it can’t be interrupted; truly capable of summoning an Evil God avatar. Staying inside would lead to your death—wow!"

Xiao Ya was yelling outside, only to be startled from Xu Shu crashing into her, full of surprise as she asked: "What? You really managed to come out?"

Xu Shu dusted his sleeve casually, saying: "Heh, what’s the meaning of that, Little Ya? Truly wish me dead inside? Not showing up during the fight, yet now you shout fiercely!"

"No, no, I was just trying to save you~" Xiao Ya muttered quietly.

"Oh, really? Shouting loudly saves me?"

Xu Shu wasn’t convinced, turning his gaze within the tower, "Is this array so formidable? Can it truly summon an Evil God to possess? This seems..."

Isn’t this similar to my previous skill that could "bet dice"?

Xiao Ya, unaware of his thoughts, explained: "Of course, Summoning God Technique was lost long ago. Unexpectedly, the White Lotus Sect actually possesses... no, precisely because of these hundreds-year-old cults that they master such sinister methods!"

"Are we safe here?" Xu Shu asked somewhat tensely.

"Probably safe, the summoning array locks both sides within, equating to a dueling ground, won’t end unless victory is decided. But likewise, they can’t leave either, considered a deserted battleground for desperation, you’re quite impressive to escape this, truly seen a ghost..." Xiao Ya nodded with lingering fear, patting her small chest.

Seeing this, Xu Shu also relaxed, though feeling something strange inside.

Lock both sides in a dueling ground, unable to end without a winner? Why does this sound so familiar...

Simultaneously curious about what kind of "Evil God" this array would summon for possession?

"Mother of Non-Birth?"

Thinking this, he, with Xiao Ya, looked inside the tower, toward the surroundings of the lotus pool.

Then observed the previously rampaging surroundings of the lotus pool, with storm clouds rising, and the lotus lamp bronze columns that were constantly resonating, each lamp was glowing red.

Red lights blinked, casting on No-Life Mother’s originally maniacally gleeful smile, both bizarre and terrifying.

This situation persisted until the red lights flickered faster, finally went off with a snap.

No-Life Mother’s smile gradually vanished.

This indicated the "Summoning God Array" had failed!

The eight lotus lamps went out, unable to contact the essential offerings for the summoning avatar!

"Uh..." Xiao Ya was stunned, murmuring to herself, "Strange, why did it fail? This array looked complete, and I felt the malice in the void earlier... it shouldn’t fail... hiss, I get it, the offering of Summoning God ritual is the little lotus platforms representing Eight Diagrams hidden by witches in the idol. Those platforms are with us, so naturally can’t... hey?"

She spoke, raising her head to look at Xu Shu, but her expression froze, not seeing him.

Turning, she found Xu Shu returned inside the tower, returned to the center of the lotus pool.

He retracted the earlier "Nine Wears One"!

Thud! Thud thud!

"Heh heh heh, No-Life Mother, were you pleased summoning the god just now? Didn’t see this coming?"
