Chapter 96 - Apostate (2/2)

Gu Jun felt like he had been torn in two One half had already been taken by the night self as placed inside the banyan tree hole The four pillars around the shrine suddenly grew in height, or perhaps he was falling doard… into more hallucinations… or back into the silent emptiness…

At the same time, Uncle Dan, as not armed, saw Gu Jun’s eyes suddenly become bloodshot The blood vessels in the eyes reminded him of the dark red patterns on the stones Gu Jun’s face took on the same expressionless, icy detachment as before

“Filthy apostates…” A dark and hoarse voice rang out It sounded completely different frolued to one of the people in red The man appeared to be different from the others Now, Uncle Dan and the rest could see that the pattern of the robe he earing was different from the others It looked more distorted and absurd However, they had no idea what Gu Jun was saying What did hethat they were certain of They were no longer dealing with the Gu Jun that they knew It felt like Gu Jun’s body had been taken over by another persona

“Just let hi Huohuo and the rest, ere about to ju, and his instincts told him Gu Jun was still somewhere in there

Suddenly, a new development drew their attention away The broken shrine under their feet appeared to have colowed and started to ered Instantly, they felt like they had fallen into some kind of arcane cell Their e state, Gu Jun’s expression darkened It appeared like he too was placed under the same impediment

Theforward as if soures in robes stopped around the shrine as well The leading wilted man in red was shrouded in the shadow as he said, “It is in our faith that being apostates is better than being abandoned No matter whether you are Gu Jun or the Son of Misfortune, your role is nothing but to serve our purpose Your existence is to evoke the divine Understand that you are not divine yourself but a sacrifice that we have cultivated for ourselves”

Gu Jun still had some faint consciousness left Suddenly, it all hit hi him the answers They needed his human powerlessness and confusion as well as the evil and madness of the Son of Misfortune As the contradiction between these erew, his S Value decreased, and thus, the chance of a successful suher Spirit Children were the vessels for divinity Like aanother life inside theht after he had coe ceremony, when he was both physically and mentally exhausted but his spirituality was at its opti to invoke that life forn civilization The life form would consume Gu Jun and take over his body The life form was not a dead person; it was the Son of Misfortune ould descend upon this world

But the people of Lai Sheng Cooal was to use this altar to suspend and shackle the Son of Misfortune before he could descend fully and had access to his full power They would use this moment of weakness for the divine to strip away his power and absorb it for their own That was the goal of Lai Sheng Co now He was probably the only Spirit Child who had successfully summoned the divine in all those years

The plans that Lai Sheng Co up to this moment It was time for them to reap the fruit of darkness that they had sewn ive them a new lease at life

“Ah…” Gu Jun could sense his consciousness fading Hissilence, but he refused to surrender The warmth from his teachers and friends, as well as the support fro was a plot, there had to be so that could stop it, but what could it be?

The figures around the shrine started to sing again, but this ti

Using his last shred of consciousness, Gu Jun took over the body for a brief mo around his waist He took out the Carlot Scalpel slowly fro Suddenly, the illusions exploded
