217 Broken Kingdom of God
As the cannonballs continued to fall near the temple, the priests and high-ranking warriors moved faster, and in just ten minutes, they managed to throw all the supplies into the pool.
After the last string of jade necklaces was thrown into the pool water, a wave of spiritual power came from the pool, and in less than a second, the spiritual power that was originally emitted out disappeared.
"Let's go, we'll be able to take it back one day." Feeling the change in the pool, the leading priest let out a cruel word to boost morale and led the people to leave, but at this moment the door slammed shut.
"Alert!" Realizing that the situation was wrong, the priest immediately ordered his subordinates to remain vigilant, but by this time he was already a step too late, and when the warning was still echoing in the small room, countless sword qi suddenly erupted in the center of the room.
These sword qi were cyan, like a lotus flower in full bloom, and it looked like it had a special beauty, but everyone in the room could feel that the footsteps of death were approaching step by step.
Under the threat of death, the people in the room either summoned a magic shield or activated some kind of magic item, while those who had nothing tried to dodge.
But the sword qi that flew out of the lotus flower like petals easily pierced through all obstacles, and at the same time, it tracked down the targets who were hiding everywhere as if they had eyes.
When the petal-shaped point of light of the lotus flower came into contact with the target, it disintegrated, and a large number of emerald green silk threads shot out towards the surroundings and cut everything in its way.
There was no doubt that the temple personnel who had lost most of the high-level transcendents and the gods were completely unable to stop Liang En's surprise attack, and in just three seconds, the palace turned into a huge slaughterhouse.
All sorts of stumps and blood were mixed together and scattered throughout the palace belonging to the gods, looking no different from the sacrifices they had used as sacrifices before, and it was another way to give back to the other.
After making sure that all the enemies inside had been destroyed, Liang En, who had previously relied on the Phantom Moon to hide his figure, appeared from the center of the room.
Seriously, if the heart of the dead demigod was still stored here, Liang En would never dare to do this, because the gods can control every detail of their temple, and it is extremely risky to sneak in.
"Let me see what's here?" After stepping over the piles of corpses of the group of bloody fellows, Liang En walked to the edge of the pool, which was now back to normal, and it looked like a small pool less than 30C deep.
Obviously, those people used some special tricks to hide the existence of the real secret, but what a group of defeated exiles laid out was a little too rudimentary in the eyes of an alchemist like Liang En.
It only took him five minutes to figure out what was going on in this pool, so he took out the golden heart, and then stimulated the golden heart with spiritual power, and sent out a golden light into the pool.
The moment the light came into contact with the water, the originally clear and transparent pool faintly glowed with golden light, and at the same time it turned into a large well that was almost bottomless.
After ordering the boat to guard the situation around the temple, Liang En dived into the water, and only touched the bottom of the water after going down for about 30 meters, but there was nothing underneath.
"I just saw them throwing things into the well." Looking at the empty wall of the well, Liang En frowned, but after checking the surroundings, he had a magic secret door on the side of the bottom of the well.
After using the previous method to open the secret door again, Liang En swam hundreds of meters along a stream of water and saw some light, and at the same time, a trace of power belonging to the gods began to permeate the water.
"This should be the time." Liang En muttered something in a low voice and sped towards the light, and soon he was exposed to his head in a well.
Upon resurfacing the surface, Liang found himself in a huge plaza surrounded by a circle of cloisters and a huge Mesoamerican-style pyramid in front.
This pyramid looks similar to the largest pyramid outside, but it is several times larger in size, and more importantly, the pyramid looks like it was used
Made of gold and jade.
It's just that unlike the legendary gold pyramid, the gold here is only used to outline certain patterns at most, and is not used on a large scale, which is also consistent with the situation of the indigenous civilization of Mesoamerica -
Nowadays, many people start to mention the El Dorado as soon as they talk about Central America, but the reality is that both the Aztec civilization in the north and the Inca civilization in the south have many gold and silver mines in their jurisdictions, and they also have a lot of gold and silver, but there is no gold and silver in Central America, which is located between North and South America. Look at the book
As a result, the main treasure of the Mayan civilization throughout history was the various jewels made of jade, and only a very small amount of gold was obtained through trade with the north, and this is now also on display in the pyramids of the kingdom of God.
Coming to the edge of the pool and gently grabbing a handful of dirt, Liang En, as an alchemist, immediately discovered the strangeness of the soil - through magic, it can be confirmed that the composition of the soil is no different from the outside soil, but it is less vibrant.
That's right, it's life, whether it's dirt, sunlight, or air, and these things are supposed to be alive under normal circumstances, but everything here feels fake.
The problem is not a lack of spiritual power, Liang En can feel that the spiritual power in this cave is much higher than that of the world outside, but it is simply piled up together, and it does not flow normally at all.
So even though the situation looks good now, the reality is a mess. For example, the concentration of aura here is very high, but it is very difficult to absorb, and if you practice, the speed may not be as fast as outside.
Although he didn't know what the specific problem was here, Liang En felt that it was most likely related to the lack of strength of the demigods after comparing it with the two gods and gods he had been to before.
Because of the lack of strength, the demigod's kingdom often lacked rules, so after the demigod's fall, the kingdom quickly declined in the absence of an owner.
Even if the remnants of those city-states used the remains of demigods and blood sacrifices to maintain themselves, at most they could only slow down the rate of collapse, and it was basically impossible to make the kingdom of God completely stop collapsing.
After looking around, Liang En climbed directly up the steps to the largest pyramid, and when he climbed beyond the height of the surrounding corridor and looked out, he was shocked by the scene in front of him.
Unlike the kingdom of gods left behind by the two fallen gods, this demigod world was extremely desolate, except for the temple and the surrounding rainforest and woods that were still growing, and the distance was already gray.
Liang En gently waved his finger and ejected a sword qi, and as a result, just the wind brought by the sword qi blew the trees that had remained their original appearance into ashes.
Obviously, with the gradual collapse of the kingdom of God. The periphery of the Kingdom of God has also been abandoned little by little, and the forces originally used to maintain these places have to be extracted to ensure the operation of the core area.
Luckily, the demigod didn't die long from a god's point of view, so there was something left in the core of the kingdom that would not be completely lost to history.
