Chapter 520: Crisis Approaches (2)

Upon hearing this, the figure wearing the white bone mask hesitated.

Spiritual Venerable, you mean we should temporarily give up on the development of Star City?

If youre up for the challenge, I wont stand in your way. But be aware, our support wont be extended to your Dark G.o.d Race. Its just one aspect of our broader plan for the Spiritual Energy Races future. Even without your involvement, well back a new faction.

Hearing this, the figure wearing the white bone mask was instantly speechless.

Looking at the black shadow, it gaped and finally lowered its head respectfully.

Spiritual Venerable, our Dark G.o.d Race will follow your instructions as a subsidiary faction of the Spiritual Energy Race.

The black shadow did not answer. At this moment, it slowly faded and finally disappeared.

After the Spiritual Energy Race member left, a hint of scarlet appeared in the eyes of the figure wearing the white bone mask.

The more it understood about the Spiritual Energy Race, the more its heart palpitated.

In the future plans of the Spiritual Energy Race, there was a segment that needed to nurture five powerful subsidiary factions.

Originally, the Dark G.o.d Race were not qualified to become one of the five subsidiary factions of the Spiritual Energy Race and obtain the resources of the Spiritual Energy Race.

Everything was a coincidence.

It learned from the Spiritual Venerable.

At that time, the Spiritual Energy Race had a list of factions they were prepared to rope in. They were to choose five domain factions with the greatest potential and focus on nurturing them.

One of the factions was called the Fog Race.

This faction was ranked first on the list.

However, before the Spiritual Energy Race could rope in and support them, the domain field where the Fog Race was located disintegrated, and the members of the Fog Race disappeared.

Therefore, there was a vacancy on the list.

In the end, the Dark G.o.d Race successfully ascended.

It was also with the strong support of the Spiritual Energy Race that their Dark G.o.d Race could develop so quickly.

It had a grudge against the orders of Spiritual Venerable, but it didnt dare to say it out loud.

The figure wearing the white bone mask looked up at the Dark G.o.d statue standing in front of it.

Not long ago, their Dark G.o.d Race was incomparably powerful.

A faction like the Spiritual Energy Race was not even worthy of being enslaved by the Dark G.o.d Race.

But that was in the past.

It knew that the Spiritual Energy Race had an ulterior motive for supporting them.

Opting to collaborate with them was akin to courting danger. It was like asking a tiger for its skin, with the looming threat of extermination.

However, the greater the risk, the greater the benefits.

It was also using the medium created by the Spiritual Energy Race to quickly develop the Dark G.o.d Race.

As long as the number of people who believed in the Dark G.o.ds reached a certain number, it could establish a spiritual connection with all the believers and instill special power into them.

It would transform the believers into their new clansmen bit by bit.

If this plan succeeded, the future of the Dark G.o.d Race would have infinite hope.

The resurgence of the Dark G.o.d Kingdom, as chronicled in ancient texts, could become a reality with the boundless power of faith and the influx of a substantial number of new clansmen.

At that time, it could lead its clansmen to escape the control of the Spiritual Energy Race.

It could even enslave the Spiritual Energy Race.

However, when it thought about how the development of the Dark G.o.d Sects branch in Star City was hindered, it could not help but have a headache.

If their plan to develop faith could not keep up with the development of the Spiritual Energy Race, the Dark G.o.d Race would most likely be excluded from the support list.

After all, the Spiritual Energy Race had yet to decide on the five factions they wanted to nurture.

It was not impossible for variables to appear midway.

Without the support of the Spiritual Energy Race, the development of the Dark G.o.d Race would be greatly hindered.

At the thought of this, a hint of ferocity flashed in its eyes under the white bone mask.

There were only two choices in front of it.

Firstly, it had to await an investigative response from the Spiritual Energy Race, but the duration of this wait was uncertain. In truth, the Spiritual Energy Race showed little concern for this matter.

Secondly, he had to personally undertake the risk of investigation, which was perilous. There was a substantial chance of inadvertently provoking an undesired faction, potentially bringing calamity to the Dark G.o.d Race.

The Spiritual Energy Race had also said that it was fine if they were to investigate, but they had to bear the consequences.

On one side was the unknown waiting, and on the other was the risky investigation.

After hesitating for a while, it could not help but clench its fists.

It was worried about leaving its fate in the hands of others.

Having already placed its bet on the gambling table, it was determined to see the gamble through to its conclusion.

This was the only way to maximize the benefits.

There were only two outcomes: Success or failure.

A month later.

Tiger Soul Research Inst.i.tutes headquarters.

The owner of the fog flipped through the mission list sent by the weak race alliance and nodded in satisfaction.

Just as it had expected.

After the Dark G.o.d Sects branch in Star City was suppressed, the faction behind the Dark G.o.d Sect wanted to investigate the owner of the fog through the weak race alliance.

To date, more than 100 investigation missions had been undertaken against it.

However, it had successfully intercepted these missions. The forces behind the Dark G.o.d Sect in Former Days City could not obtain any intelligence at all.

It felt that the faction behind the Dark G.o.d Sect might be able to guess which faction in Star City it controlled.

But they knew nothing about it.

This was the effect it wanted to achieve.

Half-illusory and half-real, it embodied a truly unsettling and fearsome nature.

As long as the Spiritual Energy Race was not rash, they would not launch a counterattack.

As antic.i.p.ated, the reality aligned with its expectations. Currently, the Dark G.o.d Sects branch in Star City displayed clear indications of initiating evacuation.

At this thought, it looked up at Feng Qi, who was sitting not far away.

Now that the hidden danger of the Dark G.o.d Sects branch was about to be eliminated, the most important part of the subsequent plan was to help Feng Qi continue to create a persona and turn him into peoples faith.

Half a year later.

The second round of the Flesh Sacrifice evaluation was successfully pa.s.sed.

Moreover, they received a unanimous perfect evaluation. The public opinion was in an uproar.

Feng Qi also relied on the success of Flesh Sacrifice to establish his status as the founder of cultivation in the new era.

Today, his second hero statue was unveiled in Star Citys Central Park, and his popularity rose to a new height.

After attending the unveiling ceremony, Feng Qi got into the Tiger Soul Research Inst.i.tutes car and prepared to return to the headquarters.

Along the way, he sighed inwardly.

The owner of the fogs plan had undoubtedly succeeded.

At this stage, he surpa.s.sed Lin Ran and became the hottest celebrity in Star City and the surrounding cities. His reputation also overshadowed Mu Qing, who was rapidly rising on the front line.

During this period, the owner of the fog used the authority of the Tiger Soul Research Inst.i.tute to modify the content of the textbooks in Star Citys middle and primary schools.

It was to help him continue to rise in popularity until he became a legend.

The results were apparent.

During the unveiling ceremony of the statue in Central Park just now, many children came to deliver flowers.

He had clearly become the hero of the young generation in Star City.

What surprised him was that he managed to absorb a trace of the power of faith from these children.

This suggested that by proceeding methodically, the actualization of harvesting flesh, blood, and faith was inevitable.

Thinking of this, he couldnt help but sigh at how terrifying the owner of the fog was.

The Tiger Soul Research Inst.i.tutes military vehicle left the congested road and turned into a secluded path heading to the headquarters.

At that moment, Feng Qi, seated in the car, suddenly experienced a profound sensation of weightlessness.

Immediately after that, the world spun, and the car continued to flip and b.u.mp.

Boom!

The military vehicle collided with the old locust tree by the road and stopped.

Realizing that he had been attacked, Feng Qi pressed the emergency device beside him that was used to contact the headquarters.

At this moment, an arm burning with dark green flames pierced the car door made of special metal and sent the entire car door flying.

Seeing this, Feng Qi was about to rush out.

The arm burning with dark green flames instantly grabbed his neck and pulled him out of the car.

At this moment, he saw the scene outside clearly.

In front of him was a man wearing a white bone mask with a pair of goat horns and enveloped in dark green flames.

Its skin was gray and its body was branded with many black patterns. It looked a little similar to the goat-headed demon, but there were many differences.

However, he was extremely familiar with the dark green flames.

This was the color of the flames controlled by the goat-headed demon.

After he unleashed the upgraded Blood Source form, similar flames ignited on the surface of his body, but the color was in a darker shade of green.

Behind the individual in the white bone mask were three others with a similar appearance.

At this moment, the chauffeur climbed out of the car. He was well-trained and decisively counterattacked.

However, before he could approach, he was ignited by the dark green flames that shot over from the side. His body turned to ashes in the blink of an eye.

Seeing this, Feng Qi decisively counterattacked.

But just as he was about to trigger the Demon Dragon Rune Crystal, a palm enveloped in dark green flames pressed down on his head.

The flames followed his breathing and entered his nostrils, spreading into his body.

An irresistible drowsiness surged over him.

He attempted resistance, but after a brief struggle, he weakly bowed his head..
