123: Chapter 153 Forging an Ancient God
Jiang Ling would not let these people leave, no matter what.
There is no telling how many God Worship Cult members are still in here, so killing as many as possible is the priority.
Jiang Ling was not in any rush to kill them quickly at this moment; he simply kept them pinned down to stall for time.
He believed that the potions these people had consumed must have a time limit.
As long as they could stall for a little longer, these people would be forced into a passive position.
Indeed, Jiang Ling's guess was correct; as time passed, the expression on the Vice Bishop's face grew increasingly anxious.
Once the effects of the potion wore off, they certainly would be no match for Jiang Ling and others.
He desperately wanted to break through the encirclement, but Jiang Ling's movement speed was too fast, and with the Thirty-Six Heavenly Gang Steps, he simply could not shake off Jiang Ling's entanglement.
Gradually, the aura radiating from the Vice Bishop began to weaken.
Jiang Ling keenly sensed this.
"Let's see how Zhang Kuang you can be now."
Jiang Ling let out a loud shout and launched a frenzied attack against the Vice Bishop.
As the Vice Bishop's Realm plummeted, he was unable to withstand Jiang Ling's attacks and retreated repeatedly.
Suddenly, Jiang Ling slashed down, landing a 100x critical hit.
Pfft!
The Vice Bishop was cleaved in two by Jiang Ling.
The Realms of the remaining three God Worship Cult members also began to drop, and the group swarmed them, easily surrounding and killing them all.
"Whew!"
"I didn't expect them to have such a method to break the Law within this Secret Realm and temporarily boost their strength."
"That was truly dangerous just now."
"Let's check on the state of the battle."
"He is quite badly injured, but his life is not in danger."
Han Keer took out a pill and handed it to Zhang Kuang, telling him to take it.
Zhang Kuang did not stand on ceremony and swallowed it in one gulp. He immediately felt a surge of warmth flood his entire body, and his injuries began to heal rapidly.
"I wonder how the other teams are doing?"
Ye Yan spoke up at this moment.
"This mission is much harder than we imagined; I suspect they are having a very difficult time as well."
"Let's take a rest, then quickly move to destroy their base."
Jiang Ling said.
"Only by completely destroying their base can we make these God Worship Cult members collapse entirely."
Everyone nodded in agreement.
After a brief rest, the group set off again.
They hadn't gone far when they suddenly heard the sounds of intense fighting.
"There's someone fighting over there; it must be one of the other squads."
Jiang Ling raised an eyebrow.
"Get ready for battle. I'll go take a look first."
Jiang Ling continued to shoulder the responsibilities of a scout.
He dashed forward rapidly. After passing through several caves, he saw a group of cloaked God Worship Cult members besieging a squad in an open area ahead.
Many of these God Worship Cult members had also consumed potions, boosting their strength to Tier 4.
As a result, the squad was struggling to cope, and several members had already been injured.
"Hold on, we're here!"
Jiang Ling let out a loud roar, lightning crackling around his body, and charged forward while wielding his black iron great saber.
Pfft! Pfft! Pfft...
Reaching the God Worship Cult members, Jiang Ling swung his great saber, easily lopping off several heads.
Seeing reinforcements arrive, the besieged squad was immediately invigorated.
"Which Military Region are you from?"
One of the team members asked loudly.
"We are from the Southeast Military Region."
"Southeast Military Region? Good! Brother, we are from the Southwest Military Region; we will remember this favor!" the team member shouted back.
"No need to be so polite!"
Jiang Ling shouted and continued the slaughter.
Tie Ta and the others had also arrived by this time and joined the fray.
With the addition of Tie Ta and his group, the God Worship Cult members were unable to hold their ground and began to retreat in disarray.
The group pursued them, wiping out another batch of God Worship Cult members.
"We shouldn't be far from their base now."
After the group took a moment to rest, Jiang Ling spoke to them.
"Can you still continue to fight?"
"We're fine!" Although the members of the Southwest Military Region were all quite badly injured, their fighting spirit remained high.
"Then let's continue moving forward and flatten them as soon as possible!"
Ten minutes later, Jiang Ling and his group continued forward.
Finding the enemy base would have been difficult, but since the fleeing God Worship Cult members were undoubtedly heading toward the depths of the base, they only needed to track their footprints.
One of the members from the Southwest Military Region possessed a Supernatural Ability called Divine Dog; his nose was exceptionally sensitive, making him highly skilled at tracking.
After tracking them for half an hour, they arrived outside a massive cave.
Jiang Ling peered into the cave entrance and discovered a massive pool of blood inside, which was constantly bubbling.
Surrounding the blood pool, many God Worship Cult members in red robes were chanting incantations.
"This must be their base. This massive blood pool is likely where they create those stitched monsters."
Jiang Ling's eyes narrowed slightly.
"Let's go in and wipe them out!"
"Agreed!"
Everyone responded in unison.
Jiang Ling took the lead and walked inside. Looking at the God Worship Cult members, he said coldly, "You villains of the God Worship Cult!"
"Today is the day you die!"
"Hmm?"
"You actually managed to find this place?"
One of the tall God Worship Cult members looked toward Jiang Ling, his strange red eyes filled with boundless resentment.
"Since that's the case, you shall all become sacrifices for our god."
He let out a cackling laugh, then took some items from his Storage Ring and violently threw them into the blood pool.
"Ancient God!"
"Awaken!"
At his words, the blood pool began to churn violently. Then, something resembling a giant python thrashed about within the pool, letting out a soul-chilling roar.
"Hmm?"
"What are they doing?"
Jiang Ling was taken aback; judging by their appearance, they were clearly up to something major.
"He wants to forge a god!"
Medusa said.
"What?"
"Forge a god?"
Jiang Ling was stunned.
"Is that even possible?"
"It's an evil method. Using Materials to forge an evil god isn't anything strange; it was quite common in our era."
Medusa explained.
"This type of 'god' isn't actually a god at all; it can only be considered a powerful creature."
"If this creature is successfully forged, it can become a powerful asset for them!"
"Then what should we do?"
Jiang Ling asked.
"We cannot let them succeed, no matter what."
"I will sneak down and devour this god into my own body; that way, they will naturally fail."
Medusa said.
"You can do that?"
Jiang Ling raised an eyebrow.
It seemed that bringing Medusa along this time was the right choice. Otherwise, they would have found it extremely difficult to counter such an inexplicable god forged by the enemy.
"Then go ahead, but be careful."
Jiang Ling cautioned.
"Thank you for your concern, Master."
Medusa slid off Jiang Ling's body with a swish and began to sneak toward the blood pool.
