Inside the stone temple, the stone statue in front of him was slowly getting up as rocks fell from its body.
* Crack crack crack … *
Lin Sheng heard the sound behind him. He quickly turned around and saw that the previously quiet green pool was now boiling violently.
A large number of pale arms slowly floated up.
The giant human face formed by countless arms slowly floated up from the bottom of the pool.
A large number of white human hands were waving and climbing on its body, spreading out in all directions from the pool.
These hands were like countless white worms, leaving the human face and occupying the space around it.
Soon, the hole behind him was blocked by a large number of arms.
The hands stopped at the hole and did not enter. It seemed that their only goal was to block Lin Sheng's escape route. It also seemed that they were wary of the situation inside the stone temple.
Lin Sheng steadied himself and looked straight ahead again.
The giant axe statue slowly walked down from the stone chair, the green halos in its eyes burning like flames.
* Whoosh. *
The giant axe statue suddenly raised its axe high, and the crystal lines on the axe's blade suddenly lit up with a hint of silver.
* Hiss hiss hiss … *
Rays of silver light appeared out of thin air and shot into the giant axe.
The silver light that gathered on the axe grew brighter and more glaring.
An indescribably familiar aura rapidly spread out, and in an instant, it filled the entire stone hall.
Lin Sheng's pupils contracted as he vaguely thought of something.
"This feeling … Could it be …!!?"
"In the name of God."
Suddenly, a deep and sonorous male voice rang out in the stone temple.
"F * ck! Ashen Seal!! "
In that instant, Lin Sheng's scalp went numb as he recalled what it felt like.
Without much time to think, Saint power surged out of his body, and at the same time, his body turned into a half-dragon as he pounced to the side.
"KADUYA (Holy Judgement)!!" A loud roar rang out.
The giant axe that was raised high in the air suddenly slashed down.
* Hiss!! *
A ring of silver light spread across the entire space of the stone hall.
Wherever the silver halo went, all matter was split into two halves.
While Lin Sheng was still in the air, the heavy armor he was wearing suddenly shattered into pieces, turning into black ash that scattered all over the place.
The heavy sword in his hand also cracked and shattered into countless pieces.
Bang!
Lin Sheng fell to the ground, his body covered by a thin layer of soft white light. At the same time, two Ashen Seal runes appeared in the white light on his chest.
The Great Axe Stone Statue put down its axe and prepared to walk towards Lin Sheng.
Suddenly, white light and Ashen Seal runes appeared on Lin Sheng's body. The stone statue faltered slightly as if it had lost its target. He turned around and walked with heavy footsteps back to the stone chair and sat down again.
Soon, everything returned to normal, as if the stone statue had never moved at all.
Lin Sheng struggled to get up from the ground.
As soon as he stood up, his armor and clothes were torn to shreds and fell to the ground.
"…"
The only thing left on his body was his underwear, and this was the result of him activating his Saint Power in time to protect his entire body.
The silver halo seemed to have an extremely domineering and terrifying power. If not for the Ashen Seal and Saint power's great immunity against the power of the same source, it would not have been able to withstand it.
He was really in trouble this time … He was definitely going to die after three days.
"Is it because it saw the Saint power and Ashen Seal on me?" Lin Sheng guessed. Otherwise, it would not have let him go so easily. It even acted as if it did not see anything, and went back to sit down.
"It's also a stone statue powered by Saint power, but the Gray Angel did not have this kind of special treatment." Lin Sheng shook off the shards on his body, and with a layer of white Saint power, he began to walk around the Great Axe Stone Statue.
He tried to remove the Saint power on the surface of his skin.
* Crack crack … *
The stone statue moved!
He quickly activated his Saint power again.
After a while, the stone statue did not move.
Lin Sheng removed his Saint power again.
* Crack crack … *
Lin Sheng quickly propped himself up again.
And removed it again.
* Crack crack. *
* Prop it up!
Remove it!
* Crack crack. *
* Prop it up … *
After a dozen times, Lin Sheng realized that the Great Axe Stone Statue was basically a dead object. As long as he removed his Saint power, it would see him as an intruder, and would immediately awaken and attack him.
As long as he maintained his Saint power, the Great Axe Stone Statue would just be a decoration, and would not move at all.
"Interesting."
Because he was not afraid of death, Lin Sheng focused his attention on exploring.
There was not much time left for him to stay here. He hoped that he could obtain some useful and substantial help from this last hidden place.
"That seemed to be the power of the Ashen Seal runes. That ripple, and my Ashen Seal runes: Sanctuary and Roar, are almost identical. Could it be that this Great Axe Stone Statue has an Ashen Seal engraved on it? "
Lin Sheng walked around, and did not find anything in the stone temple, so he refocused his attention on the Great Axe Stone Statue in the middle.
He walked to the side of the Great Axe Stone Statue, and took a closer look at the giant double-edged axe in its hands.
The Great Axe Stone Statue maintained the posture of placing the axe flat on its knees. Its hands were gently placed on the handle of the axe, motionless, and its eyes closed.
Lin Sheng reached out and touched the stone statue's hand.
It was hard, cold, and not soft at all. It was just a normal stone statue.
He saw that the stone statue did not react, and reached out to pat its arm.
"There's really no reaction at all?" Lin Sheng's interest was piqued. His hands quickly began to touch the Great Axe Stone Statue.
Unfortunately, to his disappointment, the stone statue was completely carved, and did not even have a place to hang a bag. It was a complete body.
After groping for a while, he found nothing. His gaze fell on the giant axe in the stone statue's hand.
Lin Sheng thought for a moment, and reached out to hold the handle of the axe, and then, along the side, he pulled it out from the stone statue's hand.
* Hiss … *
Amidst the faint sound of friction, the double-edged axe was slowly and quietly pulled out by Lin Sheng from the stone statue's hand.
"It really works!?" He was overjoyed, and with both hands holding the axe, he slowly retreated until he reached the hole in the stone temple.
Outside the hole, countless pale human hands were wriggling and crawling everywhere, like a large number of crawling worms.
Lifting the double-edged axe with great effort, Lin Sheng looked at the many hands outside the hole. Through the gaps of the hands, he could still clearly see the huge strange face floating on the water.
"I couldn't beat this thing before because its arms are impenetrable, and extremely hard. Now that I have this axe, maybe I can give it a try?"
Lin Sheng was not sure if he could bring the axe away, but it seemed that the weapon was very powerful, so it would not hurt to give it a try.
He recalled the activation chant that the stone statue roared when it used it.
He also had Saint power surging around him, and if he imitated the activation chant, he might be able to try it out.
Lin Sheng looked back at the empty hands of the Great Axe Stone Statue. The Great Axe Stone Statue must have accumulated Saint power, or it would not be able to use the Ashen Seal.
This was the unique legacy system of the Holy Sanctum. It could only be controlled by Saint power.
"Since it could not hurt me just now, that means there's a high chance that I won't be able to hurt the stone statue with this axe. Unless I use brute force. "
Lin Sheng guessed.
"If that's the case, I might as well try to find the thousand-armed human-faced monster at the bottom of the pool."
He made up his mind. With the Divine Weapon in hand, he was not afraid of the thousand-armed human-faced monster.
Standing at the hole, he gripped the axe with both hands, and slashed at the arms blocking the hole.
“KADUYA！！ (Gourenne: Holy Judgement) "
* Splat. *
The axe was like cutting through tofu. It easily cut through the pale arms without any hindrance, and in an instant, all the arms were cut into two.
The severed arms fell to the ground.
