Chapter 353: Chapter 353 – Origin Curse

In the past, Chen Rou had seen many unique existences.

Most of them had unique powers that could soundlessly take away people’s lives. In fact, sometimes, people would die without even knowing how they had died.

Chen Rou had thought that she had seen it all and would not be shocked by anything.

However, this scene still exceeded anything that she knew.

The light that connected the heavens and earth was incredibly bright and seemed extremely holy.

It gave off a wonderful feeling, and just by being covered by it, one would feel a warmth akin to a mother’s hug.

Chen Rou had never experienced such a thing before.

Moreover, that face…

Chen Rou subconsciously held her breath.

The golden pendant was still flying in the wind, giving off light.

As for that boy praying in front of the statue, who could it be but her little brother?

There was no mistake.

Even though there were slight differences in their faces, it was still that person who she was familiar with.

But why…

The golden pendant gave off light and created a small, golden domain around her, protecting those close to her.

The light was incredibly powerful, and could be said to be the natural enemy of curse energy.

Standing there, Chen Rou looked forwards and saw many powerful curses roaring, as if they felt unresolved. However, under the light, they began to scatter, unable to release their power.

A god descending and beating back evil…

That was what Chen Rou thought as she looked at this scene.

“Is it him?”

Behind her, Yang Cheng and Liang Xiao looked at each other and had similar expressions.

This scene made them think of the same thing.

The golden pendant, church, and that pillar of golden light…

Could it be that all of this had been caused by that person?

And what was his relationship with Chen Rou?

All kinds of thoughts flashed in their minds, but there was no way of answering those questions.

Within the church, sensing Chen Rou’s situation through the pendant, Chen Rou raised his head and gave a slight smile.

Everything was going smoothly.

Under a crisis, when people’s emotions were sent into chaos, it was easy for them to produce dependence and faith. This turned into faith energy, which was sent to Chen Heng’s clone.

That was how he had created that pillar of light connecting the heavens and the earth.

It looked like a miracle caused by the awakening of the Holy Mother, but in actuality, it was just this city’s own power.

Otherwise, even if Chen Heng used up all of his own energy, he would not be able to create such a spectacle.

After all, he had only been here for a few months.

Even though he was no ordinary person, a few months was not enough for him to reach such a monstrous state.

Standing there, Chen Heng silently raised his head and looked ahead.

Not too far away, the elder and young man’s foreheads were covered with sweat.

In the church, they were quite eye-catching.

It was not because of their identities—after the disaster had begun, all kinds of people had come to the church to seek refuge.

However, they were the only ones not kneeling.

Standing among the rows of kneeling people, they were quite eye-catching.

Sensing Chen Heng’s gaze, their scalps felt numb and their minds almost collapsed.

That gaze seemed to be able to pierce through their souls.

Under that gaze, the two of them felt as if they were being looked at by a god.

They did not dare to move—let alone express any displeasure, they were desperately trying to smile, to show that they were not a threat.

As for those thoughts from before, they had tossed them away long ago.

No matter who it was, upon seeing this scene, they would not be able to have any ill thoughts.

They felt as if a sun would fall down and crush them.

Fortunately, Chen Heng only briefly gazed at them before looking away.

Under his gaze, a massive black hand ripped open the space.

Because of the approach of the Cursed Land, the space around this city had already become incredibly weak.

Now, as this massive black hand appeared, it completely tore the boundary, revealing scenes from another world.

Boundless curse energy turned into black fog and obscured the surroundings.

The bright region once again fell silent, and became much dimmer.

In the darkness, a savage monster appeared and opened its red eyes.

It was extremely big and had jet black skin. There were scales over its body, as well as thin inscriptions.

Once its body was fully revealed, it could be seen that it was about as big as half a city.

Just by standing there, it could give one immense pressure.

“This is!”

Seeing this figure, Chen Rou and the others’ expressions immediately changed.

“Origin!”

There were different levels among curses.

Origins were the peak level of curses and terrifying existences that existed in legends.

In the legends, every time an Origin-level existence appeared, it would destroy many cities and devour millions of people before stopping.

Such devastation had always been recorded, but no one had seen it before.

“No, it shouldn’t be Origin level but Half-Origin…” Yang Cheng said, “It lacks the aura of Origin but has part of Origin’s power…

“The Cursed Land we were in was much likely created from the energy from this fellow’s body.”

True Origin-level existences represented this world’s natural laws and were extremely special. Every time they appeared, they would cause great changes in the world.

Even though this curse was extremely terrifying, it was not quite there.

Despite this, everyone present still had extremely grim expressions.

To them, whether this was Origin or Half-Origin made no difference.

With their power, they could not resist an apocalyptic-level existence like this.

Under the crisis, they found that they were the same as ordinary people, and could only silently stand there as they waited for the end.

Even just standing here, they were being protected by someone else’s power.

If it wasn’t for the golden pendant protecting them this whole time, they would have long since died in the Cursed Land.

“Let’s just wait for the end here…”

Standing there and remaining silent for a while, Chen Rou’s expression gradually became calm again as she spoke.

“It’s too late to leave even if we wanted to; the only thing we can do now is to wait here.”

No one refuted her words.

“In the end, we can only watch…”

Standing there and looking at the terrifying existence in the air, Chen Rou thought to herself self-mockingly.

She had worked so hard to try to avoid a catastrophe.

However, it seemed that no matter how hard she had tried, she could not change anything.

In this age, a Half-Origin curse was almost invincible.

Facing an existence like this, what could she do?

No…

As if she thought of something, her eyes suddenly lit up.

She did not hesitate to rush out.

“What are you doing?”

Watching Chen Rou’s actions, everyone else felt quite confused.

Only Yang Cheng and Liang Xiao thought of something.

They lowered their heads and thought for a moment before rushing out behind Chen Rou.

The three of them quickly left this place.

At that moment, the massive figure began to move.

Boom!

Translucent shards flew everywhere as the heavens and earth were filled with dust.

At that moment, the world fell silent, and only howls could be heard.

An instinctive feeling of fear appeared as all creatures in the city continuously trembled.

It was like a wild beast watching a volcano erupting or mountains and rivers collapsing. That fear that came from the depths of their souls could not be ignored.

To ordinary humans, that curse was like a natural disaster and not something that could be resisted.

If it wasn’t for the divine energy covering the city, the instant the curse appeared, countless people’s bodies would have collapsed.

And that was just the effects on the surface.

In a place where ordinary people could not see, the laws in the surroundings were modified.

Chen Heng could clearly sense this.

“It’s a big fellow…” Chen Heng thought to himself as he stood up.

He could tell that the laws in the world were changing and becoming more like the Cursed Land.

It was not that there was anything special happening; this was just the effects from the curse’s appearance.

As a Half-Origin curse, just its aura could affect its surroundings and turn it into its own domain.

Rather than adapting to its environment, it was strong enough to change its environment to suit it.

This was the most terrifying creature that Chen Heng had encountered so far.

Facing such an existence, ordinary methods would not be effective.

No matter if it was Sorcerers’ magic skills, or life power, those things would not be of much use against it.

Only other laws and existences that related to the origins of worlds could truly harm it.

“Thank goodness…” Standing there, Chen Heng sighed before waving his hand.

In that moment, his Divinities’ light spread out, illuminating the surroundings.

Golden souls rushed to the sky, representing the souls that had worshipped the Holy Mother before.

Under Chen Heng’s control, those souls were awakened and turned into holy souls, who rushed into the sky.

That was the scene that Chen Rou and the others saw as they rushed into the church.

There were some people wanting to stop them, but they were unable to stop them at all.

Soon, they reached the hall and saw the figure there.
