"I, I don't know. I was just an ordinary cultivator before, and after entering this tomb, I became like this."

"We are all considered deities now, I suppose, but I don't know what use we deities have. Furthermore, we cannot move at will; we can only stand here forever."

"Incense? That cannot be spoken of, it cannot be spoken of."

"Those in the sky? Those must be some higher-level deities; I am not clear on that either."

In short, Wu Feng asked about everything, and this chicken-headed, human-bodied deity statue answered in a hurry. But no matter what, it seemed to belong to a lower status and was quite timid, so it didn't know much useful information.

Especially regarding the issue of incense, the chicken head dared not speak of it at all; it seemed that if it were ever spoken aloud, some terrifying event would occur.

Seeing that nothing could be asked, Wu Feng questioned other deity statues, but those statues ignored Wu Feng entirely, only smiling in a dazed manner, each looking as if they were mentally deficient.

Next, Wu Feng saw that the entire indoor space became incomparably vast, and even a wilderness began to appear, and these deity statues of theirs seemed to be built upon that wilderness.

The majority of the wilderness was covered by wild grass, revealing a sense of absolute desolation.

And within the wilderness, there was a small dirt path, and following the small dirt path, a person walked over slowly.

This person was dressed as a cultivator, and the whole person appeared to present a contradictory feeling of being both holy and dark.

This person held a bundle of incense in their hand, and after walking over slowly, they lit them one by one and placed them in front of every deity statue.

And every deity statue, when this person came over, would no longer make any sound, even if they had been moving before.

Any movement at this moment seemed to have been frozen by the arrival of this man.

Even Wu Feng was the same; he lost control over his body.

And that man finally walked slowly to the front of Wu Feng, and in front of Wu Feng's deity statue, he inserted a stick of incense.

Once this stick of incense was inserted, Wu Feng immediately felt that many indescribable sounds appeared around him.

These sounds gradually entered Wu Feng's body like food, making Wu Feng's body feel even more comfortable, and this was even more so on a mental level.

After the man had worshipped every deity statue, he began to walk away quite naturally, but when he walked away, those eyes suddenly regained their focus and stared at Wu Feng for a long time.

This man's eyes were incomparably terrifying at this moment, looking Wu Feng up and down.

And Wu Feng instinctively felt danger; fortunately, he had no way to move at all now, so he didn't need to control himself.

After that man stared at Wu Feng for a long time, he frowned slightly, took out many, many things that looked quite terrifying from his wide sleeves, and respectfully placed them in front of Wu Feng.

Chapter 2135: Sacrifice.

These things looked like the internal organs of some animals, but within the organs, there were some little people jumping around, gnawing on the organs.

Once this plate of organs was placed in front of Wu Feng, he felt as if he had been targeted by some existence.

Next, those existences emitted some indescribable sounds, which quickly entered Wu Feng's brain.

Wu Feng was incomparably uncomfortable, and deep within his heart, ripples were resisting these sounds frantically.

He resisted for a full half-stick of incense's time before those demonic mutterings finally ceased.

And that man, without Wu Feng noticing much, quickly left.

Wu Feng then breathed a sigh of relief, but his body still had no way to move.

The surroundings were in a daze, and in the blink of an eye, Wu Feng discovered that he and all the deity statues had returned to the interior of that tomb.

Amidst the swirling smoke, Wu Feng saw that a large portion of the organs had already been gnawed away by those little people.

Those little people looked like cultivators wearing Daoist robes, but each one opened their mouth to reveal sharp, demonic teeth, and when they gnawed on the organs, they were like parasites—disgusting, crazy, and ignorant.

The voice of that chicken head reached Wu Feng's ears.

"Th-this fellow Daoist, now you can consider yourself knowing why I didn't dare tell you who offered the incense; that man, we cannot afford to offend."

Wu Feng nodded secretly in his heart; to tell the truth, let alone this chicken head whose strength was obviously low, even Wu Feng was an existence that could be easily erased in front of that terrifying man.

As long as those organs were placed in front of Wu Feng, Wu Feng's mental ability would be suppressed, causing him to evolve further toward being a so-called deity, just like those other dazed deities.

"Are you all suppressed by this man? Has anyone else come in?"

Wu Feng asked the chicken head.

The chicken head shook its head and said timidly: "No, from beginning to end, there has only been this man. I estimate that if there is any opportunity in this tomb, it should correspond to this man."

"Oh, it seems that is indeed the case."

Wu Feng also expressed his agreement.

However, this man seemed to have some kind of ability to trap them all as deity statues and then control them. Currently, apart from Wu Feng himself, only the chicken head and the elephant head still had human emotions; the others were about the same as idiots.

Unlike the chicken head, the elephant head's strength was very strong. It is estimated that before entering this place of opportunity, it was also a top-tier expert, but it also seemed to have been eroded a lot, leading to times now when it would feel how powerful and amazing it was, with holy light erupting all over its body, showing off as if it were invincible.

Even though the elephant head couldn't walk off that black lotus flower at all, it felt incomparably joyful.

Judging by this situation, it is estimated that before long, the elephant head would also become as dazed as the other deity statues.

The chicken head's strength was low, and after being struck, it certainly had no ability to resist and wouldn't know much. Currently, Wu Feng had to pin his hopes on the elephant head.

Chapter 2136: Sober

Chapter 2136: Sober

When the elephant head seemed to be somewhat sober, looking down at the organs in front of Wu Feng's deity statue and breaking into a cold sweat, Wu Feng suddenly asked: "This great elephant-headed deity, you should have confronted that man before, right?"

"Y-you, what did you say? What did I confront?"

The elephant head seemed incomparably fearful. It roared frantically there and then said to Wu Feng: "Do not slander me. It is impossible for me to confront the Venerable One. Absolutely impossible."

Regarding this guy's attitude, Wu Feng frowned slightly, and after waiting for it to calm down a little, he continued to ask: "I know, I know, all of this is not your fault, but you must tell me what we need to do now to leave this place."

The elephant head seemed to start thinking this time, and after a while, it said decisively: "You can't leave anymore. You absolutely can't leave."

Wu Feng tried hard to make himself show a smile, but in the end, he couldn't do it and had to give up.

Wu Feng continued to say: "Why do you say I can't leave? What you can't do, I can certainly do."

When this elephant head was a cultivator before, although its strength was high, it must have been the impulsive type; otherwise, it wouldn't have been the first to speak and communicate with Wu Feng before.

Sure enough, after being provoked by Wu Feng, the elephant head was stunned first, then flew into a rage, raising a foot to step down from the black lotus flower.

However, a massive amount of black patterns emerged on the black lotus flower, pulling the elephant head into them, making it impossible for it to take that step.

The elephant head lowered its head slightly, looked at its pair of feet, and couldn't help but sigh.

After a long time, the elephant head said leisurely: "Kid, you don't need to provoke me like that. I know very well that my fate is actually already sealed. I am dead for sure."

"No, it should be said that it is harder than death. If I am hung in the sky later, then it will truly be a case of being unable to live and unable to die."

The elephant head rambled on to Wu Feng, telling him many things. These were all things the chicken head didn't know. Sure enough, the elephant head's strength was high, and it knew more things.

For example, the origin of those motionless deity statues in the sky that looked like paintings.

According to the elephant head's statement, these deity statues were all ordinary deity statues before, just like them. After gradually losing their self, they needed to be infused with a certain incense aura for a period of time. After that man felt it was appropriate, he would take them out and hang them in the sky.

The purpose of that man doing this, according to the elephant head's estimation, should be to construct some kind of bizarre formation.

"He should be mending the sky, constructing a formation, and repairing this world."

Upon hearing this, Wu Feng asked: "You mean to say that if this man mends the sky, then if we people want to escape from this place, it will be almost impossible?"

Regarding Wu Feng's question, the elephant head nodded slightly and said: "My deduction is exactly that."

"It seems I have to take a risk."

Wu Feng thought secretly in his heart. He wasn't afraid that this elephant head was lying to him; anyway, his body was completely unable to move now. Staying here any longer would just be a case of others being the butcher and him being the fish. Fighting with all his might was the right path.

Chapter 2137: Fight with all his might

Chapter 2137: Fight with all his might

Thus, Wu Feng said seriously to the elephant head: "If, I am saying if, I can free you from this black lotus throne, will you die immediately?"

Upon hearing this, the elephant head laughed loudly and said to Wu Feng with disdain: "You can't even move a hair yourself now, and you are telling me you want to help me get off this lotus throne? Let alone that I don't want to get off, even if I wanted to, you absolutely couldn't do it."

Sure enough, this elephant head had been eroded very seriously. Even in its sober state now, its will to survive wasn't very strong.

But Wu Feng felt that this elephant head's knowledge and strength were partners worth saving, so Wu Feng still said to the elephant head with an incomparably serious tone: "I am saying if, think about it and tell me."

The elephant head's large eyes stared fixedly at Wu Feng, and after a while, it said: "If you can really help me get down, then I will certainly listen to you and help you get out, because after all, helping you is also helping me."

Wu Feng smiled: "Good, I love it when you say that."

Next, a burst of crazy power erupted from Wu Feng, and ripples of light exploded from his body. His consciousness body shot out from his body, which was currently this deity statue.

From that empty-shell-like deity statue, many black tentacles also shot out, grabbing at Wu Feng's consciousness body.

Wu Feng didn't care about these, dodging frantically, approached the elephant head's deity statue, then hugged the elephant head deity statue and pulled with all his might.

Immediately, the black lotus began to crack layer by layer, and those crazy black threads and tentacles shooting out from inside began to entangle Wu Feng's consciousness body.

However, after these threads wrapped around Wu Feng's consciousness body, they actually became motionless.
