Offering the sacrifices to himself to become a god!
It was a strange feeling, so much so that Yin Yang had felt like he was dreaming lately.
He already possessed a sliver of his own divinity at Sequence 8.
To achieve this, he had gone through a great deal of trouble.
He had used various methods to strip away the divinity and extract the precious portion he desired.
But because of this, his divinity was extremely weak—so fragile that a single breath of wind could blow it out.
It wasn't until he obtained these sacrifices today that it grew stronger, barely enough to maintain its phantom form.
As for the 'impurities' stripped from the divinity, he had stuffed them into a golden container and sent them to the Qi family as a 'divine signal flare,' leading to today's situation.
Using the divinity twice—the cost-effectiveness was off the charts.
But the biggest surprise was Qi Xiangyang.
He had actually sacrificed himself to bring down the power of an evil god.
You want to know what a surprise looks like? This is a surprise!
He originally thought he was just going out for a casual meal, but it turned out to be a five-star hotel promotion—a full imperial banquet at street-food prices!
What else was there to say?
He was truly grateful!
Folks!
Qi Xiangyang's rationality dropped rapidly. At first, he was still attacking the invisible barrier, but as his mind slipped, he began devouring the monsters around him while simultaneously lunging toward Black Feather and the other two.
Seeing this, Yin Yang decisively lowered the attack frequency of the monsters.
Only when the snipe and the clam grapple can the fisherman profit.
And Qi Xiangyang did not disappoint him, pouncing on the three with extreme ferocity!
...
Outside the Qi family estate.
“Damn it, this is a sacrifice array!”
“Those bastards in the Qi family actually worship an evil god!”
Wang Dong's face was livid.
He had known the Qi family wasn't any good, but he never expected them to follow an evil cult!
If he had known, he would have taken them down long ago, regardless of who their connections were!
Old Huang handed Wang Dong another cigarette.
“Bureau Chief, the Qi family has a hundred-year history here in Wang City. If they worship an evil cult, they've likely been doing it for a long time. This isn't your responsibility.”
“On the contrary, they were exposed during your term. This is actually to your credit.”
Wang Dong gave Old Huang a surprised look, wondering why he hadn't noticed how well Old Huang could talk before.
He didn't stand on ceremony, lighting his new cigarette with the tip of the old one. After taking a few drags, he asked, “Did the higher-ups say when they'll arrive?”
“No, they just said they've been informed.”
“Damn it, those people have acted like high-and-mighty lords for too long. They've lost touch with the people!”
“This is a matter of life and death, yet they can't even give a precise time. What’s the deal? Is even a Demigod afraid of taking responsibility?”
Old Huang's expression changed instantly, and he hurriedly looked around.
Seeing this, Wang Dong sneered.
“What are you afraid of? Everyone around here is one of our own brothers.”
Old Huang still looked worried. “Bureau Chief, you can't always know what's in a person's heart.”
Wang Dong blew out a smoke ring and said calmly, “If my brothers betray me, it just proves I haven't done enough. It’s my problem, and I’ll accept it!”
Old Huang was stunned for a moment, then gave a carefree smile.
His bureau chief really was someone who made people feel at ease.
...
Behind the Qi family estate.
The man in the trench coat had an uncertain expression as he paced back and forth with his phone.
“This is indeed the Qi family's scheme. Black Feather and the other fell for it!”
“The divinity the Qi family is using is the same one they got from Jiuqing Mountain!”
“The two of them lost their minds the moment they saw the divinity and charged straight into the Qi family. Not long after, a barrier went up.”
“This barrier is very powerful. It seems to have been modified from some defensive array. I can't get in within a short time, and the Security Bureau people have arrived. The bureau chief of Wang City seems to be a Sequence 6 as well.”
“If I make a move now, I'll definitely get tangled up with him!”
“Elder, I just felt the aura of an evil god. The Qi family might be conducting a sacrifice.”
“Given the Security Bureau's style, a Demigod will probably arrive in less than an hour. What should I do?”
The trench coat man was extremely anxious, his previous composure completely gone.
The other end of the phone remained silent for a few seconds before speaking.
“Leave.”
“Then what about Black Feather and White Feather?”
“You were right before; taking action there will only expose yourself. Furthermore, your luck is very bad. I just received word that a Demigod is already near Wang City.”
“If I'm not mistaken, he can reach you in just over ten minutes.”
“How long has it been since the barrier went up?”
“Seventeen...”
Swoosh!!!
Before he could finish his sentence, he felt an unparalleled spiritual pressure sweep past.
He looked up and saw a figure rapidly descending from the sky.
The trench coat man stood dumbfounded, murmuring under his breath, “Elder, he’s here.”
...
Boom!
A figure slammed violently against the barrier.
The barrier, which several Sequence 6s had failed to break, instantly developed numerous cracks.
Yin Yang's expression changed.
He had known a Demigod would eventually arrive; after all, Wang City wasn't some remote little town.
But he hadn't expected them to arrive so quickly!
According to Yin Yang's estimates, it should have taken at least half an hour for someone to get here, but how long had it actually been?
Twenty minutes?
Although he had already prepared an escape route, he hadn't finished his 'meal' yet!
At this thought, Yin Yang struck his staff again. The sacrificial robe and Nuo opera mask on his body began to glow.
“Roar!!!”
“Roar!!!”
“Roar!!!”
The skull monsters looked up and roared. The sound was so loud it could be heard clearly even outside the barrier.
Xia Zhiqiu's face turned pale. Ignoring Black Feather and White Feather, he directly pulled open the lid of his small coffin.
The coffin rapidly grew in size, and without a second thought, Xia Zhiqiu dove inside.
Boom!
The coffin hit the ground. No matter how the skull monsters attacked, they couldn't leave a single mark on it.
Black Feather and White Feather were even more anxious than Yin Yang. For them, there was a tiger outside and a pack of wolves inside.
No matter how they looked at it, they were likely to meet their end today.
At this thought, they even felt a hint of regret—why hadn't they listened to Xia Zhiqiu's suggestion and hidden in the coffin with him?
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh.
The frenzied skull monsters surrounded Qi Xiangyang and began to feast.
Although the mindless Qi Xiangyang was still resisting, even a tiger cannot withstand a pack of wolves, especially a tiger that has lost its wits.
His flesh and the tentacles on his body were rapidly disappearing.
In contrast, the phantom behind Yin Yang was gradually growing larger.
Since he wasn't sure how much longer he could 'eat,' he naturally had to pick the best parts first!
At the same time, Yin Yang inconspicuously gripped the 【Traveler's Badge】, ready to open a door at any moment.
Boom!!!
Even more cracks appeared on the barrier. The Demigod was attacking!
Yin Yang couldn't help but feel impressed. The Qi family's defensive array was truly remarkable. He wondered which master had been commissioned to set it up, as it was actually holding up against the attacks of a Demigod.
If he had set it up himself, the Demigod would have broken in with that first landing.
However, judging by the extent of the cracks, it could only hold out for two more hits at most.
