Chapter Twenty-Three: The Scorpion God

Great Scorpion God, are you not bless your people?"

In the dim stone room, a rich bloody aura permeated, like an abyss and hell exuding an evil aura, making people feel a chill, and the weakened human beings entered, I am afraid that it will not be long before their sanity is eroded and reduced to waste.

At this moment, a figure in a black robe fell to his knees, his head kept touching the ground, and his mouth kept babbling, praying to a statue in the center of the stone room.

In the center of the stone chamber is a huge pool made of white jade, the size of three zhang square, at this moment the pool exudes a strong bloody breath, the blood-red liquid is constantly churning in it, and from time to time there are human organs tumbling and wandering on the liquid surface.

In the pool of blood stands a statue of a human head and a scorpion tail, with a hideous and terrifying face, covered with scale armor, and a pair of crusts on the top of the head are raised high, the size of a human head, flashing with red streamers, and even the sharp poisonous needles on the tail are clearly visible, flashing with a penetrating cold light, giving people a feeling of disgust.

This is the common ancestor of all the scorpion tribes on the continent, and the statue of the scorpion god in the cave at this time is said to be separated from the statue of the ancestral scorpion god when this scorpion tribe moved here hundreds of years ago to settle here, and is the treasure and spiritual pillar of the entire branch.

Puff puff!

Blood bubbles continue to bubble out in the blood pool, and some human heart organs are floating up and down, which is a tribute from the scorpion people to their ancestors, it is said that when their great scorpion god was alive, they liked the heart of the cannibal race the most, so the scorpion people took the heart of the human race as a tribute to worship their gods.

After Xiao Chen's successive attacks, coupled with the joint efforts of the humans who were released, at this moment, all the scorpions in the entire underground world added up to less than two hundred, and they had already been driven into the deepest part of the underground by the angry humans, and the tunnel was becoming more and more rugged and difficult to walk, giving people a feeling of depression.

Not only that, this ancient tunnel exudes a strange feeling, and the stone walls of the tunnel on both sides are showing irregular lines, exuding a trace of weird atmosphere, which makes people involuntarily fall into it and can't extricate themselves.

Kill, kill, kill!

The group walked in this strange tunnel, and there seemed to be a raging aura invisibly constantly impacting their minds, and the terrifying killing intent was constantly stirring up in their minds, plus except for Xiao Chen, everyone else had gone through a long prison sentence, and their bodies were seriously deficient in qi and blood, and their minds were already fragile, so they were easily rushed into their minds by this strange breath and occupied their minds.

"Wake up!"

Almost when this raging aura had just been chaotic, a loud shout was like a big drum, as if coming from the sky, and the battle qi in Xiao Chen's body also broke out instantly, the qi and blood were like a rainbow, as if like a long rainbow running through the sun, and the majestic blood and qi filled the tunnel in an instant, enveloping everyone's surroundings, driving this strange aura out of everyone's body and isolating it.

was shouted by Xiao Chen, everyone woke up in an instant, and a burst of cold sweat broke out, if it weren't for Xiao Chen, with this tunnel alone, they might have been wiped out, so they saluted Xiao Chen and thanked him.

"Thank you Patriarch Xiao for your righteous action, it is worthy of being the nest of the Scorpion Clan, this aisle alone has such power."

A strong man who looks quite prestigious in this group of people opened his mouth to thank Xiao Chen, through the previous side by side battle, the two sides have already made a simple understanding, this strong man does not belong to any tribe, is a ranger who roams the wilderness, his name is Shankun, and he is also a hunter with a small reputation in the surrounding tribes, but unfortunately the luck is not good, when he was injured in the hunt, he was accidentally discovered by the scorpion tribe and became their prisoner, and Shankun wanted to kill the scorpion man in his heart to relieve his hatred.

The remaining scorpion people had long been compressed by everyone in a few stone houses at the end of the tunnel, trembling with fear and panic, and they had long since lost their arrogance and arrogance.

Xiao Chen held Xiao Lu'er in one hand and the dark blood spear in the other, standing in front of everyone, the killing intent in his eyes was constantly churning, and his eyes seemed to be about to shoot into the stone wall, and he would kill the remnants of the scorpion people hiding in it.

"High Priest, that human demon is chasing after you, they are going to kill them all, isn't the great scorpion god blessed his people?"

Seeing that the young man who was like a demon in the hearts of the clansmen chased after him, a young man of the scorpion clan ran to the stone house where the black-robed man was praying, and hurriedly reported to the black-robed man kneeling on the ground.

Not only that, but the young man of the scorpion tribe even knelt on the ground straight, and clasped his head towards the statue of the scorpion god in the center of the blood pool, "Great scorpion god, your people are facing death, show your people a clear way."

Rumble!

The spear pierced through the sun, and the furious cyan battle qi shot out from the dark blood spear in an instant, instantly smashing the stone wall that covered the remnants of the scorpion race into pieces.

The sound of breaking the air sounded one after another, and a large number of people and horses roared one after another, a sharp blade with a bloody handle, a sharp bone spur, with bloody killing intent, pierced the space, and killed towards the stone house.

Xiao Chen, who was standing behind him, did not stop after a blow, but swept with a spear, and the battle qi turned into a monstrous wave, killing all the scorpions who stopped in front of him.

He wanted to see what kind of treasure was being protected by all the scorpions.

The left foot stepped hard towards the ground, and a huge force erupted from the center of the foot, and the ground instantly became cracked and spread out in all directions.

Xiao Chen's figure, like a discharged cannonball at this moment, shot towards the depths of the tunnel.

In the blink of an eye, his figure disappeared into the endless darkness, leaving no ripples.

"Big brother, the atmosphere here is so terrible, Lu'er doesn't like it here."

The deeper she went, the more the evil aura became stronger, and even Xiao Lu'er felt this breath, which made her dislike it.

Ever since entering the depths of this tunnel, Xiao Chen felt tightly surrounded by a strange qi machine, and instinctively felt a disgust for this qi machine, and the opposition between the two seemed to be innate.

At the end of the tunnel, there is a stone door standing, and when you step in, the whole body feels a whirlwind, the dim scenery in front of you changes, and the body has entered the stone room, and the official central scorpion god statue and the black-robed old man and young scorpion man come into view.

"If humans dare to slaughter the people of the Scorpion God, you will definitely be punished by the Scorpion God!" Seeing Xiao Chen break in, the black-robed old man shouted in a restrained voice, as if adding courage to his trembling body.

Xiao Chen didn't care about the old man's roar, as a peak powerhouse in the Blood Refining Realm, he had already felt that the blood qi in the old man's body was mottled and decayed to the extreme, so he didn't have to worry about it.

As for a young man, when he came in, he had already collapsed to the ground in fright, trembling all over, unable to take care of himself.

His gaze pierced through the void and descended directly on the statue of the scorpion god in the center of the stone chamber, and it was this statue that made him feel a deep sense of disgust.

"Hmph, slaughter all of you reptiles today, don't worry, the scorpion beast is waiting for you below, hehe!"

"Demon, the old decay is to be buried with you even if you die, the great scorpion god, your people sacrifice to you with flesh and blood, and curse this human demon to fall into the abyss of demons forever, and never be able to transcend." Seeing Xiao Chen enter the stone room, the old man already understood that the demise of the scorpion clan was a foregone conclusion, and without the slightest hesitation, he rushed towards the scorpion statue in the center of the blood pool.

The old man's resentful voice still echoed in the stone room, and his body had already crashed into the statue, flesh and blood flying.

At this time, the statue of the scorpion god was even more eeriely flashing with red light, as if it had come to life, and the scale armor covered with the body was even more close, constantly sucking the flesh and blood of the old man, and the body was like a leaky balloon, and it dried up in the blink of an eye.

"Goo-dong!

After sucking the flesh and blood of the old man, the scorpion god statue was not satisfied, and in a flash, a ray of blood shot towards the blood pool below, and in an instant, a shocking wave rolled up in the small blood pool, and a palm-sized vortex appeared out of thin air, and the blood water in the blood pool fell rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.

And the entire stone room also became smoky at some point, and there were even more clouds and shadows in the fog, making the originally dim space even more gloomy, and there were screams from time to time in the fog, which was terrifying, and at this moment, Xiao Chen was surrounded by this smoke, as if he had lost his mind.

Suddenly, two red rays flashed from the eyes of the scorpion god sculpture, and they shot out several zhang long before disappearing without a trace, and the red eyes seemed to be a bottomless abyss, exuding magic that penetrated into people's hearts.

The sculpture really comes alive at this moment!

Immediately, the scorpion god sculpture let out a sharp strange scream, like a ghost crying wolf, and blood suddenly appeared out of thin air, cutting through the misty space, and roaring towards Xiao Chen.
