The vicissitudes of life reverberated in the surroundings, causing everyone to be stunned.

Subsequently, Zhao Yuheng and the rest’s gazes directly fell on Ren Qi, who was being watched by the gigantic creature.

Ren Qi also raised his eyebrows. Looking at the gigantic creature in front of her, he felt a little upset.

What do you mean by that?

What do you know?

Could you guide everyone?

Why are you turning it into a riddle?

Ren Qi knew very well that the reason why he was so upset was because the other party’s tyrannical strength made him feel a little uneasy.

He still had to retreat from this place first!

Under the leadership of Elise, Risa, and the others, the surrounding succubi began to quickly charge toward Zhao Yuheng’s sky fortress.

Li Tianlan and the others were also ordering their troops to retreat towards the sky fortress.

Meanwhile, Zhao Yuheng had the undying blood phoenixes keep a close eye on the gigantic creature in front of her.

Currently, in the entire battlefield, only her undying blood phoenix had the ability to resist.

Zhao Yuheng bit her lips tightly. In her heart, she had already made up her mind.

Even if the undying blood phoenixes had to make a huge sacrifice in a short while, Zhao Yuheng still wanted Ren Qi and the others to withdraw their troops first.

At this moment, the giant creature looked at the retreating troops in front of it and did not pay any attention to them. Its gaze was still on Ren Qi.

Ren Qi felt goosebumps while being stared at it.

Could this guy be gay?

Looking at the giant body of the other party, Ren Qi felt a chill in his heart.

Following that, Ren Qi did not hesitate and directly ordered the dark dragon beneath him to quickly return to Zhao Yuheng’s sky fortress.

At this moment, the giant creature slowly raised its right hand.

Ren Qi’s body suddenly stiffened. In an instant, he felt an extremely powerful force seal his body and directly imprison him.

Subsequently, Ren Qi heard the dark dragon beneath him let out a sorrowful cry.

“Bang!”

The dark-type giant dragon’s body quickly fell downwards. It directly smashed into the ground below and embedded itself deeply into it.

Ren Qi’s body was still in mid-air and did not waver in the slightest.

Ren Qi was shocked in his heart. He instantly activated the silver leaf wind dragon armor.

“Buzz!”

A silver-colored ray of light quickly flashed past Ren Qi’s original spot and charged forward.

“Huh?”

That ancient voice sounded once again as though it was a little puzzled.

Subsequently, the huge creature raised its hand and grabbed slightly. Ren Qi, who had charged forward along with a silver-colored trajectory, immediately returned to his original spot.

“Master!”

The succubi below anxiously shouted.

At this moment, from a shadow beside Ren Qi, Risa’s body quietly appeared.

Soon after, she grabbed Ren Qi’s hand and prepared to leave this place with him.

“Hmph!”

A cold snort sounded, causing Risa to let out a muffled groan. Soon after, her body fell downwards.

Risa’s eyes flashed with a trace of shock.

Under this force, she actually did not have the slightest ability to resist.

At this moment, Ren Qi’s body swiftly flew towards the huge figure, as though there was a huge suction force pulling him over.

When Zhao Yuheng saw this, she furrowed her brows tightly.

Honestly speaking, saving Ren Qi at this moment was obviously not a wise choice.

Most of the troops had already retreated back to the sky fortress. At this time, they only needed to quickly retreat back to the sky fortress and leave.

As for Ren Qi, the huge creature was obviously interested in him, and they could use him to stall for some time.

However, Zhao Yuheng still bit her lip and ordered the two half-step Saint-tier undying blood phoenixes to head towards the huge creature, trying to see if they could save Ren Qi.

While Zhao Yuheng was hesitating, Maggie, the succubi, and the Dark Elf Queen had already rushed toward Ren Qi.

To the succubi, Ren Qi was their master, so they couldn’t abandon him.

As for the Dark Elf Queen, she had already placed her hopes on Ren Qi.

Moreover, there was a reason for her actions. No matter what, she had to try to save Ren Qi.

At this moment, Ren Qi, who had already arrived in front of the giant creature, waved his arm.

“Don’t come over!”

“It doesn’t seem to have any ill intentions toward me!”

Ren Qi’s voice rang out, causing the succubi and Dark Elf Queen to stop in their tracks. A hint of hesitation appeared on their faces.

However, they all stopped in their tracks. Since Ren Qi had already said so, if they continued to charge forward, they would probably ruin the situation.

At this moment, the gigantic creature raised one of its fingers and gently tapped on Ren Qi’s head.

“Buzz!”

A ripple instantly spread out in all directions from the gigantic creature’s fingertip and quickly entered Ren Qi’s head.

Ren Qi’s body suddenly stiffened, and his pupils instantly dilated.

Images quickly flashed across Ren Qi’s eyes like a film.

At the same time, a huge amount of information instantly surged into his mind, causing Ren Qi to instantly feel like his head was on the verge of splitting apart.

The divine palaces, the distorted and ferocious golden creature, the corruption, the betrayer…

Pain, conflict, fearlessness…

All sorts of images and emotions flashed wildly in Ren Qi’s mind.

Meanwhile, the aura of this gigantic creature was also gradually fading rapidly.

Its gigantic body began to crumble, as if it had lost its vitality. Large amounts of gray flesh and blood began to disintegrate.

Looking at Ren Qi, the corners of its mouth curled into a smile.

Boom!

The giant creature turned into a statue, and its disintegrated flesh and blood turned into dust, scattering in all directions.

The remaining flesh and blood also turned into rocks, falling to the ground.

Ren Qi’s body slowly fell to the ground, amidst the muffled sounds of broken rocks falling to the ground.

Soon, the surroundings fell into complete silence, as if the giant creature had never appeared.

Maggie quickly rushed to Ren Qi’s side and began to investigate his situation.

Soon, she heaved a sigh of relief.

“How is Master?” Elise, who had rushed over from behind, asked anxiously.

Maggie shook her head and said, “Master is fine, but the spiritual fluctuation is a bit strong. He will be fine after a short rest.”

At this time, Zhao Yuheng and the others also rushed over. The undying blood phoenix and the other soldiers were also on alert in order to prevent any unexpected situations from happening.

Zhao Yuheng looked at Ren Qi, who was lying on the ground with his eyes shut and his brows tightly furrowed. A strange expression appeared on her face.

That huge creature clearly possessed a powerful Saint-tier strength. However, it seemed to have decided on Ren Qi and did something to him.

The mysteries surrounding this fellow seemed to be increasing.

“What should we do now?” Tian Jizi came to Zhao Yuheng’s side and looked at him as he asked.

They had originally planned to retreat, but it seemed that there was no need for that now.

Zhao Yuheng frowned. Then, she scanned her surroundings and said, “We’ll guard him first. We’ll talk about it when he wakes up. There shouldn’t be any danger in the surroundings.”

Although the huge creature had already turned into a stone statue and disappeared, no one knew if there were other dangers in the church-like building.

Ren Qi had obviously changed a little. It would be better for her to wait until he woke up to ask about the specific situation.

The people around her nodded and looked around warily.

Half an hour later, Ren Qi woke up faintly. He patted his head and felt that his head was a little buzzing and a little drowsy.

“Ren Qi, how do you feel? What happened just now?” Zhao Yuheng asked when he saw Ren Qi wake up.

Li Tianlan and the others looked at Ren Qi curiously. They wanted to know what happened just now.

Ren Qi was stunned when he heard Zhao Yuheng’s words. Then, he frowned.

A lot of information seemed to have appeared in his mind just now, and he seemed to have seen a lot of images as well.

However, when he thought about it carefully now, he could not recall anything at all.

In his mind, there were only vaguely distorted golden monsters!

However, they carried an extremely holy and pure power!

Ren Qi shook his head and said with a frown, “There seemed to be a lot of information just now, but now that I think about it, I can’t recall anything at all. The only thing in my mind is a golden monster.”

Golden monster?

When the people around heard this, they looked puzzled.

Everything around here seemed to have nothing to do with the golden monster, right?

“Let’s not talk about this for now. Ren Qi, do you have any special feelings now? For example, can you sense any other dangers in the church-like building in front of you?”

Zhao Yuheng looked at Ren Qi and continued to ask. No matter what, the gigantic creature just now should be related to the building in front of thm.

Although she did not know what the gigantic creature had done to Ren Qi just now, it did not seem to be a bad thing.

Perhaps Ren Qi had inherited something from this gigantic creature?

Ren Qi was stunned for a moment. Then, he looked at the church-like building and shook his head. “I don’t feel anything. However, there shouldn’t be any danger.”

The huge Saint-tier creature must have relied on the power of the clock to merge the bodies of the newborn creatures and the humanoid monsters in the surroundings.

And that state at that time shouldn’t have been its final form.

It was only able to use that state and descend.

That kind of power should have reached its end.

There shouldn’t be anything more terrifying here!

Zhao Yuheng nodded. She would know if there was any danger if she went over to take a look.

The undying blood phoenixes quickly flew forward, spitting out flames to illuminate the surroundings.

Xuan Ming’s scouts had all been eliminated just now.

Many undying blood phoenixes circled around the church-like building, but they didn’t discover any other dangers.

The surroundings were also extremely calm, leaving only the quiet church building.

After receiving the feedback from the Uundying blood phoenix, Zhao Yuheng led the group towards the church-like building in front of them.

This church-like building looked extremely strange from a distance. However, after the clock’s changes, that strange aura seemed to have disappeared.

For safety reasons, Xuan Ming controlled one of his mechanical soldiers to slowly move forward. He directly arrived at the entrance of the church building and slowly pushed open the door.

“Creak!”

Following the sound of grinding teeth, the door in front of them slowly opened.

A sealed aura instantly surged out, causing Ren Qi and the others to involuntarily take a few steps back.

After the aura completely disappeared, Xuan Ming controlled the mechanical soldier to enter the open door in front of them.

Soon, Xuan Ming spoke to Zhao Yuheng, “There is no problem. The mechanical soldier did not discover any danger within it. There is also no aura of life within it.”

Zhao Yuheng nodded when she heard Xuan Ming’s words. After which, she headed towards the open door in front of her.

In order to be safe, Tian Jizi let the mages around him enter the open door first.

Ren Qi and the rest followed the mages and entered the open door.

The moment they entered, Ren Qi and the rest felt a sense of vicissitude.

As a flame rose, the scene inside was instantly illuminated.

It was indeed a church inside. There were two rows of seats on both sides, stretching forward.

In front of the two rows of seats was a platform that was neither too big nor too small, similar to a place where bishops preached.

Above the platform, there was a sign.

It was not the cross that Ren Qi had imagined.

Instead, it was a creature-like sculpture made of twisted metal. It was very strange, but it gave people a sense of holiness. It was embedded in the wall above the platform.

Ren Qi’s brows instantly furrowed when he saw this thing.

It was as though some sealed memories had been unlocked in his mind.

He seemed to recognize this creature. It gave him a very familiar feeling, but now that he thought about it carefully, he could not recall anything.

“Is the secret trove here?” Ren Qi looked at Zhao Yuheng and asked with a frown.

The space in this place was very empty. It could be said that one could see everything at a glance. There were no obstructions at all.

However, other than the empty chairs and the lectern on the podium, there was nothing else.

Was the secret trove these chairs or the podium in front?

Or was it the surrounding air?

Zhao Yuheng frowned when she saw this situation.

According to what the aristocratic families knew, the secret trove should be at the coordinates.

It was impossible for there to be nothing here!

“Let’s look around and see if we can find anything.”

With no other choice, Zhao Yuheng looked at Ren Qi and the others.

Now, they could only look around.

Ren Qi and the others nodded and quickly scouted their surroundings.

The succubi were also helping to search, but they found nothing.

Ren Qi looked at the strange golden creature’s sculpture on the wall and felt a little dizzy.

Then, he came to the back of the podium.

Raising his arm, Ren Qi moved the position of the sculpture.

Kacha!

There was a muffled sound below the podium, and a huge black hole appeared beside Ren Qi’s right foot.
