87: Pillar of the Evil God

The villagers on the outskirts of Xuejia Village all had ferocious expressions, holding weapons and cursing at Yang Qianhun and the others.

"You disgusting outsiders, get out of our Xuejia Village quickly, we don't welcome you."

"It seems they were defeated, otherwise how could this group of outsiders swagger in. But don't think that by defeating them, our Xuejia Village can be manipulated by you."

"Foolish outsiders, dare to intrude into our Xuejia Village, then accept the Evil God's punishment."

"Everyone, let's go together and kill them first, then deal with those good-for-nothings from Yangjia Village."

...

"Presumptuous, how dare you be so rude."

Zhang Fei's voice boomed like a great bell, and a huge sound wave vibrated outwards.

The Xuejia Village villagers holding weapons had twisted faces, bleeding from their mouths and noses, and were clutching their heads, painfully curling up on the ground, rolling back and forth.

Immediately after, Zhang Fei casually picked up a middle-aged man from the ground and asked with an angry glare, "Where is the Evil God Hall?"

The middle-aged man felt a bit suffocated, terrified by Zhang Fei's murderous expression.

He tremblingly pointed in a direction in the village, stammering but unable to say anything.

Then his eyes rolled back, his head tilted, and he was actually scared to death.

"What a softie, only talking about the Evil God."

Zhang Fei casually threw the middle-aged man's corpse away, cursing angrily.

"This is also called the Evil God Hall, it's really misleading."

Yang Qianhun looked in the direction the middle-aged man had just pointed, and could feel a strange and evil aura emanating from not far away.

He then led everyone to continue in that direction, with scattered villagers trying to stop them along the way.

However, they were all directly sent flying by the aura emanating from Zhang Fei and others, unable to even obstruct for a moment.

Before long, Yang Qianhun and the others arrived at what the villagers called the "Evil God Hall."

In reality, it was a huge circular stone platform with a three-meter-high stone pillar in the middle, on which a ferocious monster was carved.

And on the huge circular stone platform knelt three elders, around fifty or sixty years old, wearing blood-colored cloth hats and blood-colored sacrificial robes, with a large red character "Evil" embroidered on their backs.

The three clasped their hands together, muttering incantations, occasionally screaming twice, looking very eerie.

The villagers of Xuejia Village also chased after them, but upon reaching this "Evil God Hall," no one dared to act presumptuously.

They all put down their weapons and knelt on the ground towards the stone pillar on the stone platform, extremely devoutly.

"Dungeon Hint: Destroy the Evil God Pillar on the stone platform, free these villagers enslaved by the Evil God, and you can clear the dungeon and receive rewards."

"Destroy that pillar on the stone platform."

After hearing the dungeon hint, Yang Qianhun waved his hand and ordered, pointing at the Evil God Pillar on the stone platform.

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Fei and Xu Chu immediately picked up their weapons and quickly rushed towards the stone platform.

"Everyone, kill these outsiders! We will never allow them to blaspheme the great Evil God!"

"That's right, kill them! They even want to destroy our Evil God Hall!"

"Kill them, kill them!"

...

The villagers who had been kneeling on the ground, upon hearing Yang Qianhun's command, all showed ferocious expressions, wishing they could cut him into a thousand pieces, and cursed loudly.

All the villagers picked up their weapons and rushed towards Yang Qianhun and the others, but before they could get close, they were sent flying by the Soldiers' aura, their fates unknown.

Zhang Fei, holding his Serpent Spear, leaped up and stabbed directly at the Evil God Pillar.

Xu Chu swung his War Soul, jumped up fiercely, and also smashed it towards the Evil God Pillar.

When their two weapons touched the Evil God Pillar, the entire pillar emitted bursts of strange red light.

The next moment, Zhang Fei and Xu Chu were sent flying backward by a powerful force from the stone pillar, retreating several steps before stabilizing themselves.

"This power is a bit wicked."

Zhang Fei, who was usually fearless, now had a look of surprise in his eyes, staring intently at the Evil God Pillar.

"Not only did it absorb our attacks, but it can also bounce them back. The power contained in this stone pillar is probably greater than ours."

Xu Chu, holding his War Soul, though unwilling to admit defeat, still stated the facts.

The next second, dozens of people in the outer group of Xuejia Village villagers simultaneously died with blood flowing from their seven orifices. Their faces were twisted, and they fell directly to the ground, groaning twice and twitching twice before completely losing their breath.

The living Xuejia Village villagers around them showed no fear on their faces; instead, they were full of excitement and fanaticism.

"They are so lucky to return to the embrace of the Evil God, forever free from pain, only joy."

"That's right, why didn't the Evil God choose me? I also want to serve the Evil God."

"Maybe I'm not working hard enough? Not devout enough? So I can't get the Evil God's approval."

"If we kill these outsiders, perhaps we can get the chance to serve the Evil God earlier!"

...

"In that case, I'll do you a favor and send you to meet your Evil God. Kill them."

Yang Qianhun looked at the Evil God Pillar, then at the villagers who died with blood flowing from their seven orifices, and already had the answer in his heart, so he directly gave the order.

After the Evil God Pillar endured Zhang Fei and Xu Chu's attacks, dozens of Xuejia Village villagers died.

This indicates that the Evil God Pillar and the Xuejia Village villagers have a certain connection in some sense.

It's like his own War Soul talent, which can transfer damage.

The Evil God Pillar transferred Zhang Fei and Xu Chu's attacks to the villagers, causing them to die with blood flowing from their seven orifices.

And it also bounced back a portion of the attack to Zhang Fei and Xu Chu; only this can explain what just happened.

So, to destroy the Evil God Pillar, one must first kill the villagers of Evil God Village, which will make the difficulty lower.

Otherwise, every time the Evil God Pillar is attacked, it will reflect damage, which is very uneconomical.

Upon hearing Yang Qianhun's command, all the Soldiers present acted together.

In just the blink of an eye, except for the three elders on the stone platform, all the villagers of Xuejia Village fell into a pool of blood.

However, just as Yang Qianhun gave the order, one of the elders on the stone platform slowly stood up.

He turned around and calmly watched as Yang Qianhun's Soldiers massacred the Xuejia Village villagers.

As if it had nothing to do with him, he just smiled slightly, confidently saying, "Everything is within the Evil God's expectations. Outsiders, your life trajectories will end here."

"The people of our Xuejia Village are not dead; they have merely returned to the embrace of the Evil God."

"They just went to serve the great Evil God. You lowly people are only fit for hell, to reincarnate in endless suffering."

"Hahahahaha, Evil God, grant us strength! Bury all these lowly outsiders here!"
