Chapter 1899 1,794, The Black Statue
Its gaze was distant as it looked through space. It turned out to be dozens of ferocious savage beasts that were thirty feet tall. They were treading on the grassland as they rumbled over.
Their legs were powerful and their bodies were heavy. Every step they took caused the ground to rumble, causing the earth to shake.
Even the Toad Lake was affected. Ripples of vibration and immortality appeared, startling the toads that had surfaced from the surface of the water.
The old man’s expression was slightly solemn. He frowned and said, “The old man is not kind. Die'er, let’s go.”
The young girl also became vigilant. Before she left, she glanced at Su Yu. “What about him, grandfather?”
If the person chasing after them was really from the wolf smoke tribe, there was absolutely no possibility of leaving Su Yu alive. At the very least, he would end up having his soul searched.
Him? The old man revealed a trace of hesitation.
Normally, it might not be a big deal to bring him along. However, it was very likely that he would be hunted down by others. Bringing him along would be a burden.
“Grandfather, let’s send the Buddha to the west. If you are a good person, just bring him along.”The young girl playfully blinked her eyes.
The old man revealed a trace of doting expression and helplessly said, “You!”
He turned his head to look at Su Yu and said, “Little friend, quickly follow us.”
With that, he pulled Su Yu’s right hand with his left hand and held his granddaughter’s hand with his left.
Immediately after, the power of desolation in his entire body surged violently and turned into a spring that instantly shot out. He was like a grasshopper, jumping rapidly between the heaven and earth.
Even the Emperor of Heaven and Earth could not fly at high speed freely. He had to rely on the power of desolation to fly on foot.
The pressure of the sacred mountain could be seen clearly.
Su Yu said, “Thank you both for saving me.”
She took another look at the young girl. Although she was a little unruly and unruly, her nature was pure and kind.
“What are you looking at? My Fists are as good-looking as my beauty!”The young girl waved her pink fists with a smile that was not a smile. She thought that Su Yu was lusting after her beauty.
Su Yu found it funny.
She was indeed very beautiful. Just like when she first met Qin Xian ‘er, she was spoiled, willful, and pure in nature.
As he thought of this, a trace of nostalgia flashed across the corner of his mouth. Xian ‘er, she had been taken away by the Xuan Ming Dao Master. How was she now?
Xia Jingyu was fine, but what about her?
If he hadn’t met the girl in front of him and recalled the memories from many years ago, he wouldn’t have been able to remember how long it had been since he had missed her.
“Xian ‘er meeting me was unfortunate for her, right?”Su Yu sighed faintly.
If she had not met Su Yu, Qin Xian ‘er would have been innocent and carefree, living happily under the protection of the Xianyu County King.
She had her own husband, her own children, and her own family.
It was not like now, where she had to leave her hometown and live alone in an unfamiliar place.
She owed Xian ‘er too much. Too much.
She looked at the young girl in front of her and felt a sense of familiarity.
“Eh, you are still looking! Do you believe that I will shoot you with an arrow?”The young lady pouted and waved the powerful crossbow in her hand, glaring at Su Yu.
Su Yu smiled lightly and turned his head to look ahead.
Even without looking back, he knew that this pair of grandfather and grandson wouldn’t be able to escape.
The Savage Beast behind them was too fast. In less than two hours, they would be caught up by the Savage Beast.
The aura of the living beings standing on the savage beast was also very powerful. The weakest among them was a half-step emperor, while the strongest among them was a single-crowned emperor.
The old man had a bad premonition. He turned his head to look at the dusty sky behind him, and his expression was very grave.
“Die'er, I’m afraid we won’t be able to escape.”The old man gradually came to a stop. He took out a storage item from his sleeve and handed it to the young girl.
Then, he looked at Su Yu. “Young friend, the pursuers will most likely focus on chasing me. Please escort Die'er to the rising sun tribe. As long as she arrives safely, with this contribution, our tribe will satisfy you if you want any help.”
Was he trying to lure the enemy away?
His cultivation was the most powerful. As long as the enemy was not stupid, they would have reason to believe that the goods were in his hands.
Su Yu shook his head and said, “I think it’s useless to run away separately. There is a very strong aura fluctuation in this spatial storage device. The reason they were able to accurately find you in the vast prairie is related to the Wisps of Aura.”
The old man’s pupils constricted as he stared deeply at Su Yu.
He took the spatial storage device and scanned it, but there was no obvious aura fluctuation..
Wait!
Suddenly, the old man took out a palm-sized purple-gold material from the storage space. It looked ordinary, but if he sensed carefully, he could indeed find that there was an extremely obscure soul aura attached to the material.
If it weren’t for Su Yu’s reminder, he wouldn’t have found this weak soul aura fluctuation under normal circumstances.
A trace of surprise and strange light flickered in his eyes.
The old man clenched his hand and was about to crush the object when he heard su yu say indifferently, “If I were you, I would use the aura of this object to lure away all the pursuers.”
Hearing that, the old man’s palm paused, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
He looked at Su Yu again and nodded slightly. Then, he took out a dog-sized beast with a flip of his palm.
It had a lithe body, slender limbs, and a timid personality. With a single glance, one could tell that it was a small beast that was particularly good at escaping.
The old man tied the materials to the small beast’s body and patted its body. The frightened small beast immediately ran wildly and fled into the distance.
“Let’s go this way!”The old man grabbed Su Yu and Die'er and quickly jumped in another direction.
Two hours later, the old man stopped and looked back. A look of relief appeared on his face.
The pursuers had indeed disappeared. They had successfully shaken off the other party.
“We’re safe now,”the old man said with a sigh of relief.
Die'er patted her chest and said in a relaxed tone, “That was close! Strange, when did someone tamper with our goods?”
The old man shook his head slightly to show that he did not know. However, he looked at Su Yu with a meaningful look and cupped his fists lightly. “Thanks to your reminder just now, we were able to turn the situation around.”
Die'er turned her head and looked at him curiously. “I didn’t expect you to look so stupid, but your brain is unexpectedly smart. Not Bad, you came to our tribe. I’ll treat you to a roasted Earth Dragon.”
Su Yu smiled indifferently. “Now is not the time to be happy. Who knows if the other goods have been tampered with? It’s better to return to the tribe as soon as possible.”
Hearing this, the old man paused, but a strange light flashed in his eyes as he turned around.
Half a month later.
By a clear long river, tens of thousands of tents of various sizes bloomed like mushrooms in a fertile land of water and grass.
There were many people coming and going, and there were no less than ten million of them.
It turned out that every tent was a cave world that could accommodate many people.
This was the rising sun tribe.
“We’ve finally arrived safely.”The old man let out a sigh of relief. He brought the two of them down and walked into a golden tent.
There was indeed another world within. There were countless rivers and mountains, and the place was bustling with life.
The moment they entered, dozens of half-step emperor realm human experts appeared. Their faces were filled with joy, “The realmlord has returned!”
“It’s the realmlord!”
“Greetings, realmlord!”
The old man nodded lovingly, “While I’m not around, is the world of the cave abode still peaceful?”
One of the females replied, “It’s still alright. Although there are some creatures who are willing to degenerate and become bandits, they were eliminated by us in time and didn’t cause too many casualties.”
“That’s good.”The old man frowned slightly at first, but soon after, his brows relaxed.
Su Yu felt somewhat surprised. At the World Emperor realm, there were very few people who cared about the life and death of ordinary living beings in the cave world.
The old man in front of him was a surprise.
“You two continue your patrol,”the old man said. He brought Su Yu and Die'er back to a relatively simple and crude manor in the cave world.
The manor was located in an ordinary mountain range. However, there were many cities built around the mountain range.
Countless creatures worshipped the mountain range at all times. They faintly regarded the old man as their God.
“Are you surprised? Hehe, my grandfather is the ruler of the cave abode world. Everyone worships him,”die’er said proudly.
Su Yu did not say anything. He narrowed his eyes and looked up at the sky.
In the world that ordinary people could not see, strands of strange energy flowed from everyone’s bodies to the mountain range.
At the peak of the mountain range, they converged into a spirit pool.
Faith!
Looking at the visitor again, Su Yu opened his eyes of the soul. His pupils constricted as he discovered that the old man’s soul was filled with densely packed insects that were continuously gnawing at his soul.
This place was actually like the moon worship sect, accumulating faith. Moreover, there were also insects densely packed within those beliefs.
He calmly withdrew his gaze and faintly nodded. “Yes, it is indeed very shocking.”
Then, the old man asked Su Yu to wait for a moment while he headed towards the location of the spirit pool.
Although the Spirit Pool had an array to block it, it was unable to block Su Yu’s eyes.
In the spirit pool, there was a lifelike statue. That statue was constantly absorbing faith.
When Su Yu wanted to see the statue’s true appearance, the statue’s face became blurry and he was unable to see it clearly.
The old man walked to the statue and respectfully offered the materials he had obtained to the statue. The statue actually came to life and devoured the materials.
Seeing this scene, Su Yu was shocked.
What was that statue?
“You’re daydreaming again. From now on, I’ll call you a fool!”Die'er rudely gave Su Yu a nickname. “Fool, Let’s go. I’ll bring you to visit the rising sun tribe.”
Su Yu nodded.
Under her guidance, Su Yu not only visited this cave abode world, he also visited seven or eight other cave abode worlds.
Unsurprisingly, every cave abode world had a spirit pool that gathered faith.
And every spirit pool had a strange black statue.
“Miss, do the people of your cave abode world worship the Master of the cave abode world?”
“Call me butterfly!”Die'er raised her head.
Su Yu smiled. “Butterfly.”
“That’s more like it!”She smiled happily. “Yes, the ruler is the highest god. They believe in people and have collected a lot of power of faith.”
Su Yu’s heart skipped a beat. “Then, who is the faith collected for?”
“Of course it’s our Saint King... Oh, it’s the Dark King that you outsiders talk about.”Die'er said matter-of-factly.
That black statue was the dark king... No, it should be something similar to the moon worship sect that transmitted faith.
Unexpectedly, the Dark King was also absorbing faith just like the Moon Worship sect!
“Alright, let’s go home.”Die'er was in a good mood after strolling around the whole day.
When they returned to the thatched cottage in the mountains, the old man had already prepared a set of dishes and wine.
“Ah, Grandpa, there’s also spiritual wine. You’re really generous. Normally, you can’t bear to drink it, but today, you took it out and gave it to a fool.”Die'er bluntly grabbed a cup and drank it herself.
The old man chuckled. “Come, little friend, sit down and have a drink.”
Su Yu sat down, but he did not touch his chopsticks or the wine cup. He just sat there indifferently.
“Is the wine and dishes not to your liking?”
Shaking his head, Su Yu said plainly, “It’s not that they’re not to your liking, it’s just that you’re not used to drinking poison wine. However, if you insist on inviting me, then I’ll reluctantly try to taste the taste of poison wine.”
After that, he drank a cup in one gulp.
