Chapter 483 Supreme Celestial Lord!
Just seeing this statue, Chen Xiangwen felt his heart tighten sharply, a suffocating aura descending.
But Chen Xiangwen didn’t think too much about it. He immediately stepped forward and forcibly pulled open the drawer of the wooden table next to the statue.
In the drawer, as expected, was a thick religious text.
The religious text was black, with several incomprehensible characters marked on the cover.
Chen Xiangwen picked up the text and looked at the statue.
The statue’s right hand held a scepter, while its left hand was raised in front of its abdomen.
This religious text should be placed on top of the left hand.
Chen Xiangwen held the text, his face showing hesitation.
He didn’t know what would happen after placing the text down.
Although he wasn’t clear about what grudge existed between Fang Yu, the Archbishop, and the Immortal Clan, from his own perspective, the Archbishop and Black Sha were clearly the evil side.
Fang Yu, no matter how you looked at him, didn’t seem like a bad person.
If he could choose, he would never help the Archbishop.
But when he thought of Yu Ruobing, he lost all options.
Chen Xiangwen gritted his teeth, placed the heavy religious text on the statue’s left hand, then stepped back.
As soon as the religious text touched the statue’s left hand, it immediately emitted a black light!
At the same time, the entire surface of the statue radiated with light!
An extremely terrifying aura gradually spread out!
Chen Xiangwen kept backing away, retreating outside the secret chamber.
He stared intently at the statue, his heart trembling.
The light on the statue grew brighter and brighter, until its original appearance could no longer be seen!
And that terrifying aura continued to surge!
“Rumble…”
The entire secret chamber shook violently.
Chen Xiangwen continued to back away.
“Bang!”
A few seconds later, a muffled sound!
The light on the statue gradually dissipated, and it began to take steps!
The statue had come alive!
At this point, it could no longer be called a statue.
Its body was crystal clear, radiating brilliant light, and its face now had expressions.
It first looked at Chen Xiangwen in front of it, tilting its head slightly.
Upon meeting the statue’s gaze, Chen Xiangwen felt his heart about to explode!
The aura was too strong!
So strong that it made breathing impossible, making one’s soul tremble!
At the same time, a bone-chilling cold rose from the soles of his feet, instantly covering his entire body!
What kind of monster was this!?
Chen Xiangwen collapsed on the ground, looking up at the statue slowly walking out of the secret chamber, his eyes filled with terror.
The statue only glanced at Chen Xiangwen before shifting its gaze.
“Thud, thud, thud…”
The statue walked step by step toward the front of the church.
Even after it disappeared from view, Chen Xiangwen remained sitting on the ground, gasping for breath.
He suddenly felt a bit of regret.
It seemed he had released an extremely terrifying entity…
Fang Yu stood in the church hall, having already sensed the appearance of the terrifying aura.
“Someone else?” Fang Yu frowned slightly, looking toward the back of the church.
The dull footsteps were very rhythmic, neither hurried nor slow.
At this moment, the Archbishop, lying prostrate on the ground, was overjoyed.
From the moment that aura appeared, he knew that Chen Xiangwen had done as he was told!
The Witch God statue had awakened!
That statue was the Witch God Church’s ultimate trump card, and also the last line of defense protecting the church.
During its nearly three hundred years of development, the Witch God Church had faced many major crises.
But when facing these crises, the Archbishops of those times had never chosen to activate the Witch God statue.
Because there was only one statue, and once used, it would be permanently lost!
The Witch God Church was inclined toward evil cultivation, but for so many years, the Martial Arts Association didn’t dare to trouble the Witch God Church, precisely because of the existence of the Witch God statue!
But this time, there was no choice.
Unable to even preserve his life, he had to activate the Witch God statue!
But since there had never been any experience using it before, the Archbishop didn’t know how much of the Witch God’s power the awakened statue possessed.
But judging from this terrifying aura, it would definitely not be weaker than Fang Yu!
Most followers of the Witch God Church had heard legends about the Witch God.
It was said that the Witch God existed more than two thousand years ago and was one of the strongest cultivators in the immortal world at that time.
His cultivation was extremely high, his power capable of destroying heaven and earth. Half of the immortal world combined was no match for him.
Later, he successfully ascended to immortality, leaving behind only a statue and a black pearl.
The Witch God Church was not established by the Witch God himself. Rather, more than three hundred years ago, a martial saint entered a long-sealed cave, discovered this statue, and saw records of the statue’s original owner’s life, thereby becoming a fanatical follower.
Even the name “Witch God” was given by that martial saint.
This martial saint honored the statue as the Witch God, established the Witch God Church, and became the first Archbishop of the church. He wrote a religious text, embedded the black pearl that could activate the statue into the text, and used this as the foundation of the church.
After more than three hundred years of development, the Witch God Church grew larger and larger.
Those who joined the Witch God Church all had extreme reverence and worship for the Witch God.
The Archbishop, lying on the ground, felt the approaching aura and trembled with excitement.
Being able to witness the Witch God’s magnificence in his lifetime was his fortune!
“Thud, thud, thud…”
A figure walked out from the back of the church.
It was the Witch God statue.
Looking at the Witch God’s crystal-clear body and the light flowing within it, Fang Yu frowned.
The cultivation aura of this statue before him was vaguely approaching the Fusion Stage!
And besides the powerful cultivation aura, there was also a hint of ancient aura.
Clearly, this statue was not an item from this era.
In today’s martial world, it was impossible to see another powerful being at the Fusion Stage.
And this was just a statue… perhaps only a trace of divine consciousness remained to drive it.
Yet it still had the might of the Fusion Stage. The cultivation of its original owner might have reached the Tribulation Stage…
Who was the original owner?
Fang Yu looked at the appearance of the awakened statue before him, his brows tightly knit, thinking.
If this person was very powerful back then, Fang Yu would definitely have heard his name.
But he had no impression of the name “Witch God.”
This indicated that the person’s original name was not Witch God, but probably a title given to him later.
As for this face, he had no impression, and the wings behind…
In the immortal world thousands of years ago, there were all kinds of cultivators. Many cultivators who swallowed the inner cores of beasts would inherit some of the beasts’ attributes.
So, cultivators with wings were not uncommon at that time.
Fang Yu thought for a while, then gave up.
Rather than thinking so much, it was better to ask directly.
“Who activated my statue?” At this moment, the Witch God statue spoke.
Its voice was very pure, just like that of a normal man.
“It’s me, it’s me, I am your faithful follower, I activated you!” The Archbishop struggled to get up, desperately kowtowing to the Witch God statue.
“Follower?” The Witch God statue frowned.
“Yes, great Witch God, I am your follower. I beg you to save my life, to execute this villain before me…” The Archbishop kowtowed while crying out.
“Witch God?” The statue frowned again, “I am Shangxuan Tianzun, not some Witch God.”
“Shangxuan Tianzun!?”
Hearing this name, Fang Yu’s heart jolted.
This name, he had indeed heard of!
He was a powerful being who ascended to immortality more than two thousand five hundred years ago!
Although that era was filled with powerful individuals, those who could ascend to immortality were still one in ten thousand.
Therefore, whenever a powerful being ascended, it would shock the world.
And the name Shangxuan Tianzun, Fang Yu had heard in this way.
However, beyond this name, he had no further understanding.
Hearing what the statue said, the Archbishop’s heart also skipped a beat.
He continued to kowtow, crying out: “Shangxuan Tianzun, please help me, otherwise I will be killed by this villain…”
Shangxuan Tianzun turned to look at Fang Yu, his expression without a trace of fluctuation.
A mere Qi Condensation stage was no different from dust; he could kill hundreds with just a breath.
“Shangxuan Tianzun, when our Witch God Church was first established…” Seeing that Shangxuan Tianzun was unmoved, the Archbishop immediately gave a brief account of the Witch God Church’s history.
“I see… a church established for me, interesting, interesting…” Shangxuan Tianzun smiled, seeming pleased.
The Archbishop’s heart leaped with joy.
“Your target is this person?” Shangxuan Tianzun looked at Fang Yu and asked.
“Yes, please, Tianzun, you must execute him!” the Archbishop urged.
“Sigh… to activate me just for a Qi Condensation stage, really…” Shangxuan Tianzun shook his head and sighed.
Back then, before crossing the lightning tribulation, he specially left a statue on Earth, sealing a divine consciousness within it.
The purpose of doing so was only to leave a memento, to see the Earth that gave birth to him once more in the days to come.
But now, hearing that the reason for activating him was merely to deal with a Qi Condensation stage cultivator, he couldn’t help but find it both laughable and sad.
However, the person before him was after all his follower, and the request was just a small matter. Shangxuan Tianzun naturally wouldn’t refuse.
“Very well, I shall fulfill your wish.” Shangxuan Tianzun turned his head to look at Fang Yu.
He raised the scepter in his right hand and pointed forward.
An annihilating aura suddenly erupted!
