Chapter 568: Chapter 182: 86 Free Attribute Points! Slay—The Gu God of the Blood Gu Sect! (A long Chapter of 10,000 words asking for subscriptions)_2
Utterly terrifying!
It filled one with dread!
"Insects! Why are there so many insects on my body... and the Evil-Repelling Talismans, they are completely useless?"
"How could this be? What kind of cursed thing is this?!"
"Could this be, by any chance, some sort of witchcraft from the Blood Gu Sect? Why is it so bizarre?!"
"Not good! That big creature is certainly targeting the Crown Prince! But... but with such a powerful being, how can we possibly deal with it? In the Imperial Palace, some of the more powerful cultivators have already been dispatched to quell the chaos around."
"Damn it, this was all part of their plan, an overt scheme of theirs, and they were prepared to send strong fighters away."
"Now, we either have to hold out desperately and wait for everyone else to come back, which might give us a chance to take down the Blood Gu Sect. Or we place our hopes on that one person!"
"That person... is it the Taoist Priest?!"
"At this moment... other than that Taoist Priest, I’m afraid there’s no one else capable of dealing with such a being, right?"
"..."
Amidst the spreading fear and panic, a sliver of hope began to rise in the hearts of many.
The reason for their rising spirits was because they had witnessed Fan Wu’s strength for themselves.
Perhaps this Daoist Fan Wu could actually handle this strange and unpredictable being?
Pair after pair of eyes, filled with either terror or expectation, focused on Fan Wu.
Perhaps.
Now, Fan Wu had become the only pillar of support in the entire Great Zhou Imperial Palace.
Fan Wu didn’t care about the gazes that were fixed upon him.
Right now, he was looking at the massive figure before him.
He looked up.
And observed the attribute information above the figure’s head.
"Gu God’s Descent, ’Life’ over 19,000, ’Power’ around 188, ’Skill’... too many to count."
Fan Wu murmured to himself.
"Tsk, only half an incense stick of time left?"
The purity...
It’s not quite there!
This so-called Gu God’s Descent might look intimidating at first glance and also appears to be quite large. But looking at the creature’s attributes, Fan Wu felt it was nothing too remarkable.
In others’ eyes, a being whose ’Power’ attribute is reaching 188, close to 200 points, would definitely appear monstrously strong.
It was akin to being half an Immortal God!
But to Fan Wu, this so-called ’half an Immortal God’ was more or less just that.
Not weak, but not strong either.
Average.
That was all.
The Blood Gu Sect’s so-called "Gu God" was currently looking down at Fan Wu because, in Its eyes, the person with the strongest aura was none other than Fan Wu with the Demon-slaying Sword in hand.
No!
Not just that!
It could even feel a faint sense of threat emanating from Fan Wu, which baffled the Gu God—an incarnation of the Blood Gu Sect.
Within the Blood Gu Sect, one particular type of Gu insect, named "Gu God" after their revered deity, was considered extraordinarily special.
They named a powerful Gu insect after their own idol to reflect their faith in the Gu God.
It also served to deepen the influence of their "Gu God" in the hearts of the Sect Disciples,
And made it appear more imposing.
This was a deliberate move by the "Gu God" to guide Its followers, so every ounce of worship and adoration toward the power of a Gu insect named after It, would translate into fervor and belief for Itself!
It needed worship.
It needed belief!
As an existence not officially recognized by imperial decree, the only way It could grow stronger—much like many wild and dark gods—was through worship and belief.
The fact that Its followers had set their sights on creating havoc in the Great Zhou Dynasty’s Imperial Palace was also known to It, even encouraged by Itself.
It was not a dark god native to Great Zhou, so when It entered Great Zhou to wreak havoc, It could do so unrestrained!
Whether the gods within Great Zhou took action against It did not matter, as they would not dare to pursue beyond the borders of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
According to the Gu God’s calculations, once the Great Zhou Dynasty was thrown into complete chaos, It could lead millions of followers into Great Zhou.
Times of war were the best times for preaching.
Then, It would absorb the worship of nearly half of the Great Zhou Dynasty—such a prospect was delightful even at the barest thought.
As for conflicts with other regional dark gods within the Great Zhou Dynasty? A group that lived in a nearly decaying realm but didn’t dare to further fuel the fire or pour oil onto it, opting instead to carry on with meager deeds in silence.
The Gu God totally despised them!
But...
Its plans had now hit an unexpected snag.
Its followers had encountered a powerful cultivator, and this cultivator’s strength surprised not only Its lower disciples but also the Gu God of the Blood Gu Sect.
The Gu God, descended from the heavens, grew solemn.
It was on guard!
Among the people, Fan Wu stood out as exceptionally tall, yet in the eyes of the Gu God, his size was meager—barely larger than one of Its fingertips.
Such a "tiny" stature, yet it instilled an uneasy feeling in the Blood Gu Sect’s Gu God.
