Chapter 916: Chapter 338: The Trap of the Ancient Evil

The aura of the divine statue has the same presence as the headless divine statue in the Five Elements Grotto Heaven’s Ancient Temple, but why is the counterpart sealed here, and what purpose does this divine statue serve?

He took a few steps closer to the statue.

Suddenly.

Qiu Niang, within the Five Elements Grotto Heaven, suddenly sensed something and urgently said:

"Master, can you let me out?"

"Alright."

Fu Changsheng was puzzled, but since Qiu Niang was the spirit of the Five Elements Grotto Heaven, she might explain the scene before him; with a thought.

Whoosh!

A flash of white light.

Qiu Niang swiftly emerged from the Five Elements Grotto Heaven.

After appearing, Qiu Niang glanced around the surroundings, her gaze landing on the head of the divine statue, and she spoke with excitement: "Master, I can sense that, if you bring this divine statue’s head into the Five Elements Grotto Heaven, the grotto heaven law will be somewhat repaired. Master, this is a rare opportunity."

As Qiu Niang was speaking, she was about to step forward when Fu Changsheng pulled her back:

"Qiu Niang, don’t rush."

Fu Changsheng’s gaze fell on the skeleton lying on the altar steps.

With a flick of his forefinger.

With a boom, a ball of flame fell onto the skeleton, and as the flame spread towards the demon staff in the skeleton’s hand.

A peculiar scene unfolded.

Whoosh!

The demon staff trembled slightly.

Then a white shadow suddenly manifested from it, floating in the void, and Fu Changsheng could feel a powerful power of Divine Sense seeming to penetrate him:

"This power!!"

The strength of this white shadow.

Was beyond his ability to contend.

Without thinking, Fu Changsheng turned to flee:

"Trying to run, too late!"

A scornful voice echoed from the air as the stone door closed with a loud rumble, and the white shadow sneered coldly:

"This old man has orchestrated for years, thinking to lure a fine vessel, only to find it a Three Spiritual Roots. I’m quite curious, with your inferior Spirit Root talent, how did you quickly learn the ’Celestial Qian Seven Steps’ and activate the Blood Talisman Spirit Body!"

As he spoke.

With a resounding boom, around the white shadow.

In the void.

A series of vortices emerged, filled with skeletal remains; as the white shadow casually manipulated techniques, numerous Corpse Puppets with Purple Mansion Cultivation swiftly materialized, charging towards Fu Changsheng:

"Damn!"

Fu Changsheng hadn’t anticipated this was indeed a trap.

Laid by an Ancient Demon Cultivator, this old monster had retained his Divine Soul for years, evidently sustained by the demon staff.

Fu Changsheng sneered coldly.

Tapped the Three-Transformation Treasure Lotus Lamp.

Whoosh!

Petals of lotus blossomed, forming layers of petals to shield them, simultaneously activating the ’Ancient Source Thunder Scripture,’ three Bing Fire Divine Thunders rolled into thunder dragons, colliding with the charging Corpse Puppets, while he switched techniques:

"Explode!"

Boom!

The Corpse Puppets shattered in the thunder dragon’s explosion.

Fu Changsheng’s eyes lit with joy.

However.

In an instant.

His smile froze on his face.

The shattered Corpse Puppets quivered slightly and returned into the void vortex, recombining after a while:

"This....."

It seemed.

As long as the white shadow lived, the Corpse Puppets wouldn’t die.

Fu Changsheng flipped his right hand, gripping a Top-Grade Spirit Stone, rapidly replenishing Mana, while silently withdrawing the Talisman Treasure bestowed by the Seventh Prince:

"Xiaoqing, help me guard."

"Roar!"

The Cyan Flood Dragon opened its mouth.

Countless water vapors erupted, transforming into Water Curtain Celestial Splendor to shield in front.

At this moment, the white shadow let out a sinister laugh:

"With your insignificant means, you think you can escape from this old man? Such wishful thinking!"

Speaking, the white shadow rapidly performed hand seals, causing the Corpse Puppets with Purple Mansion Cultivation to surge towards Fu Changsheng like a tide, faster and mightier than before.

Bang bang bang!

The Water Curtain Celestial Splendor’s light curtain, under the fierce attack of the Corpse Puppets, appeared with cracks, seemingly unable to hold; however, activating the Talisman Treasure required more time.

Fu Changsheng thought swiftly.

Boom!

The fused Nine Yang Red Lotus Flame roared out, forming a wall of fire in front:

"Oh, you actually have fused Anomalous Fire? Not bad, your body isn’t as bad as this old man thought. But this old man has no time to continue playing around; let’s end this here."

As he spoke.

The white shadow swiftly moved in the void as if painting out of thin air.

Next.

Whoosh!

A talisman array slammed down onto Fu Changsheng.

Instantly.

Fu Changsheng was terrified to find himself unable to move a muscle, even his Mana couldn’t circulate, and the talisman treasure in his hand was only half activated.

What cultivation does this white shadow possess?

To be able to paint arrays in the void!

Could it be that today is the end here for him:

"No!"

Fu Changsheng’s mind raced, rapidly contemplating a solution, his eyes resting upon the divine statue entwined by the Profound Rope:

"This white shadow clearly died on the altar."

In other words.

The white shadow seemed to imprison the statue, yet the statue also turned him into a heap of remains:

"What if..."

If the statue could awaken.

He might be saved.

Meanwhile.

The white shadow transformed into a beam of white light, barreling towards Fu Changsheng at great speed; at the critical moment, Fu Changsheng thought quickly:

"Enter the Divine Temple!"

Whoosh!

He felt a blur before his eyes, the next instant appearing inside the Divine Temple.

At the same time.

The white shadow was also drawn into the Divine Temple.

"This is....."

The white shadow paused briefly.

Fu Changsheng quickly thought again, disappearing from the Ancient Temple; meanwhile, a stone door appeared on the Ancient Profound Vine at the Spirit Mountain Peak of the Five Elements Grotto Heaven, from which Fu Changsheng’s figure flashed out:
