Gu Yanying couldn't help but become serious. Could it really work?
However, after a while, there was no change except for the big fish that was still struggling tenaciously.
Li Qingshan stopped chanting the Holy Scripture and the illusion immediately vanished. The statue in the cave was still as ugly as ever. It stood there motionlessly, not dancing at all.
He spat, "I knew it was useless!" He had to admit that it was stupid of him to try everything he could think of in a moment of desperation.
"That's not what you said just now." Gu Yanying smiled, but she couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief. With his personality, if he really succeeded in inviting the gods, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Let's go!" Li Qingshan turned around and walked away, giving up on this wishful thinking. If he could not master the Phantasm Evasion Skill, he could only use the normal Invisibility Skill to keep up appearances.
The sky was very dark, and the smoke and dust from the volcano covered half of the sky. The magma emitted an orange glow from the scorched earth, and the river was also dyed yellow. The island, which was originally full of birds and flowers, now looked like a demon's lair.
Rumble! A bolt of lightning illuminated the world, stirring up a gust of black wind and pouring rain.
The deep grotto in the rock wall became darker and darker. The statue of Mahesvara was only a vague silhouette. It was not ugly, but majestic.
Gu Yanying suddenly realized that Li Qingshan's sculpting skills were not bad. The statues in the cave were actually very charming, but he was too lazy to sculpt them. He probably did not expect to succeed!
"If praying to the gods and Buddha is useful, then what's the point of cultivation?"
Just as he was about to turn around, the eyes of the statue suddenly lit up, as if it had come to life. It stared intently at Li Qingshan's back.
The sky grew darker and darker as the wind and clouds surged. The rainstorm was like a waterfall, and the forest was like waves.
A bolt of lightning struck the colorful big fish on the altar. In an instant, it turned into ashes. It was as if the god who stood at the top of the three thousand worlds had accepted this ridiculous offering.
Gu Yanying said, "Be careful!"
"What's wrong?" Li Qingshan also felt that something was wrong. When he turned around, his eyes met with the statue of the Heavenly Lord of Freedom, and his body stiffened.
The volcanic island, the dense forest, and the wind and rain had all disappeared.
In a trance, he was standing in front of an incomparably majestic altar. It was as if an entire mountain had been carved out of it, and there was a sea of people at the foot of the mountain. Their appearances and attire were all different. There were men and women, young and old, rich and poor, noble and lowly. As far as the eye could see, there seemed to be no end to them. It was as if all the living beings in the world had gathered here and were all kneeling before him.
No, not to him!
On the altar at the peak of the mountain stood a statue that was even more majestic than the mountain. It looked down at him. He gently asked, "Why aren't you kneeling?"
Li Qingshan panicked. It was as if he had returned to his childhood in his previous life, where he was caught by his parents for making a huge mistake. He quickly lowered his head, but there was still a trace of dissatisfaction in his heart.
"Qingshan!" Gu Yanying saw that Li Qingshan seemed to have lost his soul. He looked at the statue of the Great Freedom God with his head down and said, "Oh no, this kid is making trouble again!"
She flew forward and grabbed him, wanting to take him away from this place. However, he did not move at all. It was as if his feet were rooted to the ground. She had inherited the Feather of Chaotic Heaven, so her speed was extremely fast. However, her strength was far from being comparable to that of Li Qingshan.
"Hmm?" On the peak of the mountain, the statue of the god uttered a questioning sound. It seemed a little strange, but it was not angry.
Li Qingshan raised his hands. He suddenly realized that he had become smaller. The power of gods and devils had all disappeared. He was only a mortal standing here, and a weak child at that. He felt a wave of panic in his heart, and his legs trembled slightly.
The people at the foot of the mountain were enraged.
"Kneel!"
The sea of people and billions of living beings roared together. The heaven and earth shook.
An invisible force pressed down like a mountain. Even with the powers of gods and demons, it was difficult to resist.
Rumble!
In the thunderstorm, Li Qingshan staggered and fell to the ground, like a collapsing mountain.
The moment he was about to kneel on the ground, his hands turned into hooves, and ox horns grew on his head. He turned into a strong and powerful Oxen. Its eyes were red with anger. With a loud moo, its bent hind hooves stomped hard, and its front hooves crushed the altar, and it rushed toward the cave.
Boom! It crashed head first into the statue of the Great Realm of Freedom.
Crack! A crack spread from the foot of the mountain to the whole peak.
Once again, the volcano erupted violently. Lava surged and flowed. The mist and rising black smoke mixed together into a pot of porridge. Lightning flashed back and forth, creating a strange and dazzling scene.
Xiao An rushed over, only to see the black ox that Li Qingshan had transformed into lying on the ground, panting heavily. Gu Yanying patted the ox's back. "Are you fine?"
Li Qingshan shook his head, feeling extremely tired. Little Ann squatted down and gently stroked the ox's head.
"Is the Great Realm of Freedom really here?"
Gu Yanying asked. An ugly and crude statue and a random scripture could summon such a god? Oh right, there was also a fish.
"I don't know."
Li Qingshan shook his head. Just Now, when he was about to fall, he looked up and saw his own face on the majestic statue. He couldn't help but suspect that it was the work of the Yin Demons again. But there seemed to be an external force, or else it wouldn't have happened so suddenly.
At this time, the boiling lava spread quickly, and he could vaguely see the broken face of the Great Realm of Freedom's statue being devoured by the lava.
Gu Yanying waved her hand, and a gust of wind and rain extinguished all the lava and mountain fires. She smiled and said, "I heard that the mount of the World of Freedom is a great white ox. You are so strong, don't let him take a liking to you and make you his mount. But this is good too. Not to mention the True Dragon Ao Xuan, even the Demon God Qiong Qi can't do anything to you. "
Xiao An added, "All the heretical sects that believe in the Mahesvara have a similar saying. On the back of every cow, there is an incarnation of the Mahesvara, and they bring him to travel around the world."
Li Qingshan felt that there was really a weight on his back, and he shivered. He quickly turned back into his human form, straightened his back, and stretched as if he wanted to shake off the incarnation of the Great Realm of Freedom.
But he didn't believe in this saying. At least, there would never be something like the Great Realm of Freedom on the back of a particular ox.
And he knew more about these legends than them. Many sects revered and revered the sacred ox. When it was necessary to remove the statue, it was not to be smashed by hand, but to be trampled by the calf. The devout believers believed that the Great Realm of Freedom wouldn't mind his beloved animal trampling on him.
Then he thought of the statue of Great Freedom that he had smashed to pieces earlier. Li Qingshan shook his head and tossed these ridiculous thoughts out of his head. This time, he had gone for wool and come home shorn. Not only had he failed to benefit from it, but he had almost suffered from qi deviation as well.
"Little Ann, it's better to be a man. Don't walk the path of evil!"
"But we're not men!"
"Err …"
Gu Yanying comforted him, "Qingshan, don't be too impatient. We can just wait until your strength is fully recovered, and then we can fight Ao Xuan."
"Huh?" Li Qingshan casually practised the Heavenly Tome of Freedom and discovered that he had actually broken through before he knew it, and the effects were rather prominent. Regardless of the reason, it proved that the "Inviting a God to Possess you" really was effective at the very least. He immediately pulled himself together. "No, I need even more offerings and better statues."
Gu Yanying said, "You …"
