Currently, the Southern Gods Restoration Society had only mastered the ability to awaken the Lech Worm and the Crocodile of Zom. Hence, only two of the murals were painted with bright colors. The other two murals were still blurry.
The main reason for this was that they had yet to learn the true names of the two mystical creatures. Hence, they could not summon them or use them.
They were not purely priests who toyed with the mystical powers. Instead, they learned their skills from the literature and knowledge left behind. The names of the first two mystical creatures were deduced through their persevering research over a long period of time.
However, the last two mystical creatures could not be named no matter how hard they tried. It was as if there was an invisible barrier that prevented them from doing so.
In the end, they came to the conclusion that they needed the guidance of the Old God or his personal summoning. Hence, they desperately needed the Northern Gods Restoration Society to worship the Old God. They wanted to obtain the information from the Oracle and receive all of the Northern Lands' legacies.
Unfortunately, Tianxia had destroyed the Northern Gods Restoration Society before they could do so. Hence, they could only place their hopes on the divine body that could receive the power of the Old God.
At this moment, the three of them were staring at the mural of the giant worm. The old man raised a short staff in his hand. A celestial symbol appeared on the tip of the staff. He pointed it at the mural from afar.
The golden-robed woman opened her hand. A similar symbol appeared in the middle of her palm. The young man tapped on his mask. A corresponding light appeared on his forehead.
The three rays of white light intertwined and shone on the mural in front of them. At the same time, they chanted a long and strange chant.
Under the intertwining of the white light and the chanting, it did not take long for the murals to vibrate. At first, the movement was very small, but as their chanting gradually became louder, there was a kind of rustling sound that began to respond. It sounded like a group of people whispering together, but also like countless insects crawling around.
The three of them felt a tingling sensation under their skin. It was as if something was crawling under their skin. They could vaguely feel that they had formed a connection with the creature in the mural.
This was the first time they had tried to awaken this kind of sleeping mystical creature, but the whole process was not controlled by them. They just followed the established steps to complete it. From the moment they chanted the summoning incantation, they automatically drew in a force, pushing them to complete this task from behind.
Wisps of mystical power leaked out from the void and entered the mural.
At this moment, they had a feeling that although today's scene seemed to be something they had come up with on the spur of the moment, it seemed to have been predestined and arranged long ago.
The painted big worm in the mural was originally just a picture, but at this time, it began to wriggle slowly. The surface of the stone wall peeled off and fell to the ground with a rustling sound. First, the wings on its back shook, and then its body twisted, causing large pieces of stone to fall down.
From the gap, a ferocious-looking insect crawled out and landed on the ground. After flapping its wings, a white fog-like light bloomed from its body. At the same time, a strange aura spread out.
Although the three of them did not stop chanting, they felt as if something was strangling their throats. However, the strange thing was that the chanting in their mouths continued, and the mysterious power in their bodies was slowly being sucked away by the white mist.
They could not help but feel great fear in their hearts. Fortunately, this process did not last too long. It finally stopped before their power was almost exhausted.
The giant insect was now completely surrounded by the white mist. It was like a thin layer of silk cocoon, and something was changing and wriggling inside.
Due to the encounter just now, the three of them could not help but retreat, wanting to get away from this thing.
After a long time, the blurry shadow inside stopped, and the cocoon-like mist suddenly broke open. Then, a pair of slender hands stretched out from inside and completely tore the light cocoon apart. A woman with beautiful curves appeared from inside. She had crimson insect eyes, and slender insect jaws like limbs that were close to her cheeks. Her body was covered in a thin, bright silver shell, and she looked light and agile.
The three of them looked at her appearance and actually felt a sense of intimacy. However, they knew that this was all fake. What they saw was only a reflection of their souls.
The "Lech Insect" was also known as the "Yi Insect". It did not have a completely fixed body, and was just a pure spiritual creature. It lived by sucking spiritual energy and had the ability to distort mysterious power.
However, they also understood that when the spiritual power reached a certain level, the boundary between the spiritual projection and the physical existence was not so clear.
The silver-haired woman looked at them with her insect-like eyes. The three of them felt as if the deepest secrets in their minds had been dug out, and they felt nauseous. One by one, they lay on the ground and cried out in pain.
Fortunately, after one or two breaths, this feeling was over.
When the three of them got up from the ground, they found that the woman had disappeared. The three of them looked at each other in shock. At that moment, they almost thought that they had been treated as food by this mysterious creature.
The golden-robed woman said with lingering fear, "Dealing with gods is not what we are good at. We should avoid it as much as possible in the future."
The old man said, "Knowledge and skills are what we pursue. Only when knowledge is used to control power is power. We are weak because we do not have enough knowledge."
They had inherited the skills of the Old God, and because they believed in using knowledge to control power and not divine power to decide everything, they had never directly contacted the Old God.
This was the difference between them and the Northern God Restoration Society. They were more rational and calm. Before they had mastered power, they did not dare to act recklessly.
The young man looked at the empty stone wall and said, "Since the Lech Insect has been released, it should be able to delay Tianxia for a while."
In the Qing Xuan Daoist Palace, Zhang Yu was flipping through a book on the table. He suddenly sensed something and looked at the table. There were a few jade scrolls on the table, and one of them was shining brightly.
Over the past few days, he had recorded all the prophecies related to the Mochi Clan into these jade scrolls. The one that was shining was a prophecy that was sent to him in the past few days. The prophecy roughly said that before the Old God awoke, the divine guards under his command would awaken first.
He believed that this was not the main part of the prophecy, but a supplement to the whole prophecy. However, now that the spiritual energy was shining on it, it meant that the prophecy was either in the process of being fulfilled, or part of it had already been fulfilled.
Now, he could not guess where it would happen. It could be the middle layer, the sea, or the inner layer. Regardless, he had sent people to prepare for it.
He did not intend to intervene immediately. He believed that this kind of omen would not be the only one, and there would be more in the future. He also wanted to see if his subordinates could handle it without him.
If they could handle it calmly, then he could let his subordinates do it. He could also go find the five deacons and try to solve the problem of the Door of Dao.
At this moment, outside Shouzheng's encampment in the Southern Continent, a wisp of spiritual energy landed in front of the Shouzheng's encampment and condensed into the appearance of the silver-haired woman.
She observed the encampment and found that it was filled with a powerful spiritual energy. This was Aigo sitting in the encampment. In order to avoid being influenced by the surrounding heaven and earth, he had concealed his presence. However, he did not try to hide himself, so in the eyes of beings of the same level, his presence was very obvious.
The silver-haired woman's insect eyes flickered a few times. She blew out a wisp of spiritual energy. This wisp of energy contained countless tiny insects that could not be seen with the naked eye.
Ordinary insects might be useless to cultivators, but those with mystical powers were a different story altogether.
Yue Luo was walking on the hills outside the encampment. She was in charge of copying the surrounding scenery and sending it to the Eastern Court Prefecture. It would be convenient for her to draw a map and understand the situation at all times. At the same time, she was also conversing with a few friends and Gan Bai.
Gan Bai was originally chatting with her on and off, and he was not stingy with giving her a few pointers. At this moment, he suddenly let out a "Yi" sound.
Yue Luo was puzzled, "Senior, what's wrong?"
Gan Bai said, "Take a look at the south."
Yue Luo nodded and turned towards the south. At the same time, the Xuntian Dao Zhang projected a large area of scenery.
Gan Bai said, "The situation is not right …" He said seriously, "Little Yue Luo, I will teach you an incantation. Remember it and use it immediately."
Yue Luo heard the serious tone and realized that something might be wrong. This was outside the encampment. She immediately replied, "Yes, senior."
Gan Bai immediately explained the incantation and sent a visualization diagram. He said, "Visualize this diagram."
Yue Luo did not hesitate to visualize the diagram and tried to use the incantation. Immediately, she felt as if her entire body was sealed. All her senses retreated to the depths of her mind. The outside was completely dark. She had almost turned into a statue that was isolated from the outside world.
This feeling was not good, but she trusted Senior Momo. Even though she did not hear any specific explanation, she did her best to maintain this state before Senior Momo spoke again.
On the platform in the center of the encampment, Aigo was sitting upright and meditating. He suddenly opened his eyes. He did not know when, but densely packed white insect eggs were embedded in the walls. Tiny insects were struggling to crawl out. Not only on the walls, but also on the ground and under the praying mat. There were also insects wriggling out.
