Divine power surged.
After Chen Heng's body fell silent, his body started to go through massive changes.
The Divine Power that he had accumulated in the past began to circulate rapidly and spread throughout his entire body, washing through it.
At the core of his body, the two Divinity shined with great light.
Compared to before, the two Divinity within his body had gone through great changes.
Even though the Light Divinity had become stronger, the changes were not too great.
However, within the Massacre Divinity, the changes were quite evident.
Compared to before, even though its size had not changed much, its profoundness had become many times more complicated.
This was undoubtedly a shocking change.
This was Chen Heng's gains from before.
In the past, Chen Heng had only cut off one of the curse's arms, and he had obtained great gains.
During the last battle, Chen Heng had directly killed the source curse.
When the curse had been killed, all of its law energy had been taken by Chen Heng and fused into his body.
This massive law energy immediately caused Chen Heng's body to go through great changes, causing his entire body to go through great changes.
At that moment, Chen Heng could clearly sense the changes in the Massacre Divinity.
If there were no surprises, after this transformation, the Massacre Divinity within his body would be able to condense a new authority.
This was quite an unexpected gain.
Not bad.
Following this thought, he allowed the power within his body to flow, causing his body to go through changes.
Apart from the changes in his Divinity, his body also went through changes.
Even though it looked like a mortal's body, in actuality, it had gone one step further and had condensed a body of laws.
Even though Chen Heng could sense that his body of laws was not complete, compared to before, it had gone one step further.
After this transformation, he would be able to condense a body of laws.
Of course, the amount of energy required for such a huge transformation was undoubtedly enormous as well.
As such, Chen Heng was prepared to take a long time to complete the transformation.
After all, from what had happened before, if he wanted to complete the transformation, he would most likely need an astronomical amount of divine power.
Such a massive amount of divine power could only be provided by external power of faith.
Chen Heng did not know just how long he would need to sleep.
But it was still alright.
In any case, with his lifespan, it didn't matter how long he slept.
After condensing the body of laws, although his lifespan was still limited, his lifespan was already extremely long. He had at least tens of thousands of years to squander.
His transformation might take a long time, but it shouldn't take that long.
However, even so, Chen Heng hoped that this transformation would not take too long.
He didn't want to wake up to find that everyone he knew in this world was dead.
Even though Chen Heng had experienced this before, he did not want to experience it again.
As he lay there, various thoughts flashed through his mind. In the end, he slowly closed his eyes.
When he closed his eyes, his own consciousness fell into a deep slumber.
At this point, unless his transformation failed or someone woke him up midway, he would not wake up again.
A hazy darkness appeared, covering his eyes.
As time gradually passed, everything seemed to have ended.
.....
Time gradually passed.
After Chen Heng fell asleep, the region he was sleeping in quickly returned to normal.
This was a desolate region, and there were not many people around.
After an unknown number of years, some figures began to appear in this place.
Early in the morning, sunlight shone on the ground, illuminating the surroundings.
At the foot of the hill, some people arrived in trucks.
"Is this the place?"
A tall middle-aged man walked out from the truck. He was wearing a scholar's robe and wore glasses, making him look like a scholar.
"If the report is correct, this should be the place."
In the truck, another person picked up a map and nodded as he said, "An ancient tomb nearby. I heard that it was washed out by water.
If we don't save it as soon as possible, it might be completely destroyed.
"Let's hurry up and get to work."
Looking at the person beside him, the middle-aged man nodded and got off the truck, "Have the workers arrived yet?"
"They arrived a long time ago; they are all nearby residents," the person beside him replied.
Someone at the side replied, "As early as three days ago, they had already started working. I heard that they had already dug out some things."
"Oh?"
Hearing this, the middle-aged man felt a bit interested and turned to look at the person beside him, "Bring me over to have a look."
That person nodded, then led the people in front of him and continued to walk forward.
They continued forward and arrived at a certain area in front of them.
There, some workers were already working. They looked quite diligent and did not slack off at all.
At the side, some of the things that they had dug up were placed there. At this moment, they were scattered all over the place, forming a huge pile.
Looking at these things, the middle-aged man hurriedly went forwards, wanting to appraise them and find something valuable.
"These things are most likely from 1,000 years ago and are considered antiques."
After appraising them, the middle-aged man looked quite excited and said, "And they are all valuable things."
"It seems that the owner of this ancient tomb was a noble, which is why there are so many funerary objects."
Standing beside him, the other people also nodded, agreeing with his opinion.
At that moment, a shout suddenly sounded out.
Someone ran over, panting as he walked towards them.
"What's going on?"
Looking at the other person's appearance, the middle-aged man was quite surprised and could not help but ask.
"Some things were dug up over there," the person replied.
"A coffin, but I don't know if it belongs to the tomb owner."
"A coffin?"
Immediately, the middle-aged man became interested and hurriedly said, "Bring me over to have a look."
The man in front of him nodded and walked over with the experts in front of him.
Following this, they saw the coffin.
The coffin was made of stone and looked quite simple and sturdy. There were no fancy decorations on it and it looked quite simple.
It was just that the material was very special, even though it was made of stone.
Making a coffin out of stone was much more difficult than making one out of wood.
Looking at the stone coffin in front of them, this thought flashed through everyone's minds.
After looking at it, they felt that something was off.
"This position is a bit off from the tomb, so it shouldn't be the tomb owner."
"Could it be a servant buried with him?"
Someone said, but then they shook their heads and rejected this possibility, "Impossible …"
"Even if it's a servant, it should be close to the tomb. Moreover, how could there be a servant with a stone coffin …"
"Moreover, this position is quite off …"
After looking at the position of the stone coffin, everyone frowned.
This stone coffin was quite strange.
Compared to the other tombs, there were no funerary objects around this stone coffin at all. There were no traces of it at all; it was just a stone coffin.
From the looks of it, it was hard to say whether this sarcophagus belonged to one of the tombs on the side.
Perhaps this stone coffin just happened to be next to the tomb and did not have anything to do with it.
"What do you think …"
Standing there and looking at the stone coffin, the middle-aged man raised a possibility, "Could this thing be a special funerary object?"
"Could it be that there are no corpses inside and only some valuable things?"
He raised this possibility.
In the past, it wasn't as if this hadn't happened before.
It was just that this was the first time they had seen a stone coffin.
"It's not impossible."
At the side, the others nodded and said, "No matter what, we'll know once we open the sarcophagus."
Standing on the spot and listening to these words, everyone nodded their heads.
Indeed.
No matter what was inside the sarcophagus, as long as he went back and opened it, he would naturally know what it was.
As such, they temporarily put this matter aside and returned to other places to check the funerary objects.
Several days later, they returned to the encampment and prepared to conduct a unified examination of the funerary objects they had excavated.
"Open the stone coffin."
Looking at the massive stone coffin in front of them, the middle-aged man said.
Hearing his words, the others standing beside him nodded and silently stepped forward, preparing to act.
They used special tools and began to move to open the sarcophagus.
What surprised them was that even though the stone coffin looked ordinary, it was quite difficult to open.
"This …"
Observing the appearance of the stone coffin, everyone present was quite surprised, "This doesn't look like a man-made coffin at all. It looks more like a stone coffin made from a complete piece of stone …"
Looking at the stone coffin in front of them, everyone felt quite surprised.
The stone coffin in front of them did not have any openings at all. No matter what they did, they could not open this coffin without destroying it.
This was like a complete stone that had been polished into the shape of a stone coffin, but there were no openings at all.
Just how did they do this?
At this moment, everyone could not help but have this thought in their minds.
They had used all sorts of methods, but in the end, they were still able to open a hole in the stone coffin.
The stone coffin slowly opened, revealing the scene inside.
However, looking at the scene inside, everyone was dumbfounded.
Within the stone coffin, there was a young man's corpse silently lying within.
The young man's appearance was incredibly exquisite and frighteningly handsome, making everyone feel amazed. He was like a god from the heavens, and everyone who saw him felt admiration from the bottom of their hearts.
His clothes were still intact, and he wore white robes as he silently lay within the stone coffin. He looked like he was asleep, which was quite unique.
"Just what … is this …"
Looking at the young man lying within the stone coffin, everyone was dumbfounded, not knowing what to say.
Strangely, a young man was buried in a stone coffin.
Most importantly, this young man still looked the same, and there were no signs of his corpse rotting at all.
If it was not for the fact that they could sense that this young man did not have a heartbeat or breathing, they would have thought that he was asleep.
Without a doubt, this was not normal.
"Could it be … a Cursed One?"
In that instant, the middle-aged man quickly thought of a possibility.
If it was a Cursed One, then this situation might have happened.
As an archaeologist, when they excavated in the past, they often encountered some strange scenes, so they were quite familiar with Cursed Ones.
In this world, there was a type of Cursed One.
This type of existence was quite unique; they were existences that had a part of the Cursed One's flesh and blood core transplanted.
Because they had a part of the Cursed One's flesh and blood core transplanted, these people had some of the characteristics of the Cursed One and had some of the power of the Cursed One.
The situation before them seemed to be as such.
After death, the corpse did not rot and instead maintained its original appearance. This was something that ordinary people would not think was possible.
However, for Cursed Ones, this was quite normal.
After all, they were different from ordinary people.
Cursed Ones' corpses contained the power of the Cursed One, so it was quite normal for their corpses to not rot.
Thinking to there, the middle-aged man felt quite confident and felt that he had found the key to the problem.
However, if it really was a Cursed One, this problem would be quite troublesome.
This thought flashed through his mind as he stood there.
The more he understood Cursed Ones, the more he understood how terrifying they were.
Cursed Ones that had been transplanted with the Cursed One's flesh and blood, even if it was just a corpse, would still possess terrifying power. Once the power exploded, it was likely to trigger the Cursed One, causing the nearby people to die.
There was no doubt that this was a terrible consequence.
Thinking to there, the middle-aged man could not help but feel a bit fearful. Looking at the young man's corpse in the sarcophagus, his gaze became somewhat uncertain.
"Seal the sarcophagus and place it in the innermost area."
He thought for a moment, then said.
"Place it in the core area and don't allow others to open it without permission."
He said so, settling it down as such.
The rest of the people didn't have any objections. They just nodded and agreed with him.
Following this, everyone else left and headed towards the outside world.
However, in a place that they could not see, there was something strange within the sarcophagus.
A faint golden light shined from within the sarcophagus.
However, because the light within the sarcophagus was concealed, it did not show.
The faint radiance shone and then gradually dissipated, disappearing at this point.
Everything came to an end.
Meanwhile, in a certain church in the distance, a pair of golden eyes slowly opened as if sensing something. They suddenly looked in a certain direction with an exceptionally sharp gaze.
"It's finally … revived …"
The statue looked ancient, and the one carved on it was the legendary Holy Mother.
When the sarcophagus was unearthed, the Holy Son's incarnation, who had been asleep this entire time, finally woke up and opened its eyes.
However, it only silently looked at it for a while and did not do anything.
Chen Heng was still in the process of going through a transformation and had not fully awakened.
Since that was the case, it was enough for him to maintain his original appearance.
He did not need to do anything else.
Thinking to there, the Holy Son's incarnation silently closed its eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
Time gradually passed.
After that day, nothing unexpected happened.
It was as if everyone had forgotten about what had happened within the sarcophagus.
The sarcophagus was sealed there.
Soon, more than half a year had passed.
Inside the quiet and spacious museum, a figure was silently moving forward, moving quickly.
This figure's movements were extremely fast, shuttling back and forth in this area, looking exceptionally agile.
If one looked closely, with the dim lights, it would be possible to tell that it was a girl.
At this moment, she was running around the museum as if she was hiding from something.
"It's coming … it's coming …"
Behind him, a series of noises sounded out continuously.
Hearing those sounds, a look of fear appeared on the girl's face. At that moment, she seemed to have thought of something and became terrified.
She did not dare to look back, afraid that she would waste time. As such, she could only continue to run.
It was just that no matter how she ran, she could not break free from the existence behind her and could not escape.
"What do I do? What do I do …"
Sensing all of this, she felt incredibly terrified and did not know what to do.
In the past few days, she had been in a state of being hunted. There was an unknown presence chasing after her at all times.
Before this, quite a few people had already fallen victim to the murderous hands of those people.
In order to avoid the curse and prevent it from harming her friends and family, she had come here to hide by herself.
It was just that it seemed that even though she had come here, she could not completely avoid that existence.
"The so-called … curse … huh …"
Hearing the footsteps coming closer and closer, the girl gritted her teeth and did her best to rush forwards.
She did not dare to look back, afraid that she would see bloody faces appearing behind her.
However, as she continued onwards, she eventually reached the end.
Although the museum in front of him was quite spacious, it wasn't endless.
Soon, she reached the end of the corridor.
