Chapter 753 – Godfall Art

These withered and shriveled corpses had been dead for countless years already. Yet, they didn’t decay away. When they freed themselves from the wooden stakes and landed on the ground, they rushed forward like wild tigers. Guttural howls came from their throats as they raced ahead with astonishing speed!

In the blink of an eye they ran up from the stone steps and plunged themselves at the lance-holding Do Ermo. The Saint’s weary face revealed an expression of loathing and disgust. He took a step back and fell to a knee, stabbing the lance condensed from light down into the smooth mountain stone.

Bang –

The entire mountain peak trembled and fiercely vibrated. Then, the mirror-smooth summit was torn and smashed apart by a terrifying strength.

Lance phantoms broke free from the ground and shot into the skies. They carried with them a swift and fierce aura, one that could pierce through all things as they tore through the withered corpses that were rushing over.

Burning heat erupted from the wounds, causing these corpses that had not decayed over the years to suddenly ignite like dead wood.

They were instantly reduced to ashes!

Even so, Do Ermo’s crazy slaughter didn’t frighten these corpses away. On the contrary, their attacks became even more manic and wild.

To die was freedom!

Because of their betrayal in the past, they were imprisoned here after death. Their souls could not rest in peace and they suffered heart-wrenching pain every day. This sort of torture had lasted for hundreds of thousands of years. And now, for them, being able to disappear forever was already the best result.

Qin Yu watched with cold eyes as these shriveled and fierce corpses crazily tossed themselves at the Western Tomb Saint and were burned to ashes.

Although he still didn’t fully understand what was happening, he could still make out the key players here and get a sense of what they were trying to do and what their motives were. For instance, the First Saint had descended upon the Hell Mystic Realm in order to capture the power and authority of the Western Tomb. And, there was also the Western Tomb’s Divine Seat who had some way of undoing the seal within the sinful attendant so that she could fight Do Ermo and delay for more time.

It was clear that this stage today was no longer his alone. Moreover, the Ancient’s skull and his consciousness that hadn’t yet dispersed seemed to have expected this. Whether it was Do Ermo or the Divine Seat, everything seemed to be within his plan.

But even now, Qin Yu couldn’t determine whether or not he would be the last one smiling today.

As these chaotic thoughts raced through his mind, he caught a glimpse of a small figure from the edge of his vision. It was the corpse of that seven or eight year old girl. Because her body was withered, she appeared even smaller and thinner than she should. She was mixed in with the numerous corpses as she hurtled at the Saint.

Without accident, she would suffer a similar fate to those corpses in front of her. She would be pierced through by a lance, burned to ashes by the holy light.

But when Qin Yu saw her, the little corpse turned her head and their eyes met in midair. Her eerie and strange smile suddenly widened.

In the next moment, the little girl’s corpse leapt over and she jumped on top of Qin Yu’s stone-covered body. Her young laughter rang out like little bells, “Big brother, I said that we would meet again.”

A familiar sound echoed in his ears. Then, there was a series of loud ringing, of stone being struck over and over. The little girl screamed in anger and irritation. She sneered, “Do you think you can block me just because you put on some stone armor? Big brother, you are underestimating me!”

Qin Yu could hear the sound of flowing liquid. Then, a piercing yin chill aura slowly seeped into him.

“Hehe, stay behind and play with me! I like big brother very much! When I grow up, I will be your bride and marry you. How about it?”

Qin Yu’s complexion was ugly. He never thought that he would be sucked into this mess even though he was just watching from the sidelines. How come this little girl’s corpse was so extraordinary and why wasn’t she summoned by the blood of the sinful attendant?

At this time, if someone were standing nearby, they would see that the corpse of the little girl that held onto Qin Yu’s back was rapidly decaying and melting away. The little corpse turned into a thick black liquid that covered Qin Yu’s stony gray outer layer, continuously seeping through.

Her empty eye sockets stared at Qin Yu’s brain, as if she were pondering how tasty it would be to bite into it.

However, why did she think that this big brother’s flesh and blood could help revive her? And how did she think about such things? It was as if all these thoughts had suddenly appeared in her mind. It was strangely unexplainable.

But the little girl’s simple thoughts didn’t allow her to ponder such complex things. Still, none of this mattered. All that mattered was that she needed this big brother to stay behind so that they could be together forever.

Mm, if the two fused into one whole, wouldn’t they be together forever and never be separated? Hehe, it was definitely like this!

The little girl closed her eyes and let out a sigh of comfort. She allowed herself to melt into black goo, drilling through the stone layer that covered Qin Yu.

“Huh?” A surprised voice rang through Qin Yu’s thoughts. “Throughout all these years, I actually never discovered that such a funny little thing is hidden within the corpses of the sinners.

“Hoho, this can be considered a lucky chance for you. Since she delivered herself on her own initiative, then I will help you receive her. Perhaps she will be of some use to you in the future.”

Then, in Qin Yu’s ears, the little girl’s panicked screams rang out loud, as if she had encountered something extremely horrifying and was unable to resist. The black goo that poured through the gray-white stone layer was forcefully d
