Chapter 3438: Absorb Again

"Bang! Bang bang!!!"
The God Devotees’ bodies instantly exploded into clumps of flesh and blood.
From beginning to end, Zane watched from the side, inwardly shocked.
This guy Fang Heng.
After absorbing Void Power, his strength had risen significantly again.
The Void Power that those Evil Gods originally used to deal with outsiders had already been greatly weakened when facing Fang Heng.
That said, Timothy was indeed a fool.
The strength of the Five Kings of Gods’ clones was far from this weak. At the very least, they should have been able to exchange more than ten moves with Fang Heng. However, Timothy was too greedy. Even while fighting Fang Heng, he was still suppressing the Void Power inside his body, so the strength he actually displayed was less than one-tenth of his true capacity.
The result was naturally an instant kill.
Fang Heng closed his eyes and focused his mind, rapidly extracting the power within the clone.
"Tch!"
As large amounts of Origin Power continuously surged into the sea of consciousness, Fang Heng could not help but curse inwardly.
He knew the Five Kings of Gods were greedy, but he had not expected them to be this greedy. A single clone had absorbed that much Void Energy.
This amount of energy was enough for him to digest over a period of time.
He first drained all of it, then compressed and stored it in the sea of consciousness, planning to slowly digest it later.
"Zane, keep watch for me."
As Fang Heng spoke, his consciousness directly merged into the sea of consciousness, accelerating the extraction of Void Energy.
"Alright, leave it to me."
Zane responded.
Unless a clone returned to its main body, or the two made contact to exchange memories, their memories could not fuse. There was no need to worry about the God of Decay’s main body suddenly being awakened.
As for the minor pests encountered during this time, he was able to naturally handle them.
Just as Zane expected, although the believers outside the temple immediately raised the alarm after discovering the intrusion, and news of someone breaking into the temple quickly spread, the believers were unable to contact the God of Decay no matter what they tried.
As for the ordinary believers who rushed over as reinforcements, Zane did not even need to act. They were already dealt with by the God of the Underworld guarding outside.
Hm?
After standing guard for more than half an hour, Zane suddenly raised his head, his gaze stretching into the distance and fixing on the darkness far away.
"Since you’re already here, why hide so sneakily? Do you really think I can’t see you?"
"Rustle, rustle..."
Not far away, Pena revealed herself from the darkness. She sized up Fang Heng beside Zane and Timothy, who had formed into a flesh cocoon, and could not help but feel wary.
She had only come over because she happened to be nearby and heard that someone was causing trouble at the God of Decay’s temple. Out of curiosity, she came to take a look, never expecting to run into Ouroboros.
Pena then shifted her gaze to Zane.
In such a short time, Zane’s strength had recovered to a great extent. He was now able to see through her stealth.
Zane said, "Pena, you’re not a believer of the God of Decay, are you? Why are you interested in coming here?"
"You made quite a commotion. I was passing by and got curious, so I came to have a look."
Pena asked curiously, "I didn’t expect it to be you. Aren’t you in a hurry to escape right now? You actually dared to swagger over to look for the God of Decay?"
"Hehe, listen to what you’re saying. I don’t quite understand it."
Seeing it was his old acquaintance, Pena, Zane chuckled. "It’s obvious that someone owes us a debt. Isn’t it perfectly normal for us to come collect it?"
"You still dare to talk about debts? Do you dare say you didn’t intend to scheme against my lord?"
"Hahaha."
Zane laughed loudly, "The feeling’s mutual."
Pena said seriously, "The Five Evil Gods have divided up the Void Abomination’s power and are now in seclusion absorbing it. They don’t have the time to deal with outside matters. But if you disturb the God of Decay’s absorption, he definitely won’t let you off."
"You don’t need to worry about that. I suggest you spend more effort worrying about your own master instead."
Zane shrugged and said, "By the way, want to consider working for me? Your master isn’t reliable."
Pena narrowed her eyes slightly.
"Hehe, you didn’t get much benefit this time, did you? The Void Crystals given to your master last time were quite a lot. Did you get even a little share?"
"Hmph, I can’t be bothered to talk to you. I want to see just how capable you are to dare provoke the God of Decay."
Seeing that Zane’s strength had greatly increased, Pena knew he must have gained a lot of benefits. Feeling displeased, she snorted softly and transformed into a shadow, merging back into the surrounding darkness.
Zane knew that he could not do anything to Pena at the moment, so he simply let her go.
Pena hid in the darkness once more, quietly observing and gathering intelligence.
Judging by Fang Heng’s state, it seemed like he was absorbing the power of that cocoon.
Ouroboros’ special ability?
Since Timothy was completely wrapped inside the cocoon, Pena could not tell what exactly was hidden inside it, and she could not help but feel puzzled.
More than three hours passed.
"Chi, chi chi chi..."
The tentacles connected to the cocoon slowly snapped and curled back, reattaching themselves to the heart affixed to Fang Heng’s right arm.
The cocoon slowly shattered and dissolved, leaving behind only a puddle of foul-smelling slime.
Fang Heng opened his eyes again.
Not bad.
Only now did he realize that during his prolonged struggle of wits with the Void Abomination, most of the Void Energy had been absorbed by the Five Kings of Gods and their clones.
A single clone could provide quite a bit of Void Power. If he absorbed a few more, the skill level of Origin Power would almost meet the requirement for advancement.
The Origin Power absorbed by the Evil Gods’ main bodies would only be more.
That worked out well.
If he could absorb all of them, the Origin Power level should reach god-tier.
Fang Heng slowly turned his head, his gaze sweeping toward Pena, who was secretly observing from the shadows.
"Zane, what did she say?"
Pena’s pupils suddenly shrank. She instantly felt as if something had locked onto her. Her hair stood on end, and the blood in her body accelerated uncontrollably.
Such terrifying ability!
Pena hurriedly held her breath, focused her mind, and tried to suppress the agitation of the blood within her body.
She suddenly realized that Fang Heng’s abilities were far more terrifying than she had imagined.
Zane also glanced toward the direction where Pena was hiding and said, "I’ve known Pena for a long time. She’s a smart person. With our abilities, going after the other Kings of Gods would be too slow. Maybe we can make use of her help."
"Mm, that works."
Fang Heng agreed, withdrawing his gaze from Pena and slowly stepping toward the interior of the temple.
"Huff!"
The moment Fang Heng’s gaze moved away, Pena let out a deep sigh of relief. The blood in her body, which had been accelerating nonstop, finally calmed and stabilized.
Terrifying.
Pena wiped the cold sweat from her forehead.
She had not expected Ouroboros to possess such a bizarre ability to manipulate blood.
So what exactly was he here for this time?
After thinking it over, Pena decided to continue following and observing.
"Ka ka ka ka, ka ka ka ka..."
The temple doors were pushed open once more.
Fang Heng walked into the temple.
The temple had three floors.
The first floor was a hall, with a massive statue of the God of Decay standing in the center.
More than twenty people were seated cross-legged around the statue, eyes closed in concentration, as Void Power aura continuously overflowed from their bodies.
