Chapter 634 Earth Buddha Temple
Li Muyang in the wilderness quickly found a secluded forest and went underground directly.
After being cursed, he felt an inexplicable sense of urgency in his heart.
He must clear the game before the curse’s corruption reaches 100%.
He entered the game and arrived at the ruins of Tree God Country covered by swirling sand.
The Tree God Country, already submerged by the sand, was filled with vicious, bloodthirsty howling and groups of zombies wandering aimlessly, looking for any living creatures in their sight.
This time, upon appearing in Tree God Country, Li Muyang continued his search for the remaining parts of Wu Ming.
But just as he stepped out of the ruins of Tree God Country, he saw a familiar black-robed figure by the roadside ahead.
The black robe was surrounded by black mist, and below the robe, the face and body were also engulfed in black mist.
A blue flame cooked an old pot.
Inside the pot was a rotting half snake.
Since the snake’s flesh was rotten, the soup being cooked also emitted a foul, strange smell.
Seeing this scene, Li Muyang was speechless.
"...You eat this stuff?"
The last Eight Sorcerers, no matter what, at least had fresh flesh and blood.
Being cooked by the black-robed figure was barely acceptable.
But this time, the Tree God’s flesh was rotting and foul-smelling... And it was cooked?
Li Muyang was speechless and disgusted.
But the black-robed figure just scooped up a bowl of meat soup and started tasting it, ignoring Li Muyang’s disgust.
While drinking the soup, it said, "You’ve killed the Eight Sorcerers and the Tree God, and you’ve frightened the other Divine beings."
"Those guys are now hiding your Divine body in Fuyun City."
"You have to speed up."
The black-robed figure’s hoarse voice warned, "By killing the Tree God, you spread the curse throughout the entire Ark. Now, every creature on this land is affected by your curse."
"You must gather all the bodies and resurrect before the curse takes effect."
"Otherwise, all the remaining creatures on this land will be killed by your curse."
The words of the black-robed figure left Li Muyang taken aback.
Damn?!
That curse corrupting the creatures was actually cast by Wu Ming?
And not by the Tree God?
At this moment, Li Muyang finally understood who the calamity bearer mentioned in the ancient prophecy was.
Indeed, it referred to Wu Ming.
Li Muyang opened the map scroll, heading straight towards the direction of Fuyun City.
He didn’t know why Wu Ming could spread the curse across the entire world beyond the Ark, nor why Wu Ming needed to gather all the body parts to end the curse.
Anyway, the Divine beings he needed to challenge next were all staying in Fuyun City, right?
These bosses gathered together would indeed save Li Muyang some trouble.
Li Muyang rushed through the black sand, and now that his right leg had regenerated flesh and blood, he could fly three feet above the ground, making him much faster.
With the help of the map scroll to avoid the red-named skeleton monsters in the sand, Li Muyang only took six hours to reach the outskirts of Fuyun City.
However, the Fuyun City he saw was completely different from the one in reality.
In reality, Fuyun City was bustling and lively, with Spiritual Energy converging, an ancient blessed land on the world beyond the Ark, with Cultivators shuttling through the skies.
But the Fuyun City in the game was submerged in eerie red mist.
This bizarre red mist surged in the streets and alleys, seemingly alive. From a distance, the red mist occasionally contracted, as though breathing.
Li Muyang slightly furrowed his brow and stopped outside Fuyun City.
In that moment, the lake outside the city gate stirred dramatically.
Following this, a water god riding a steed and holding a divine spear emerged from the lake.
"...Wu Ming!"
After seeing each other again, the Water God General seemed incredibly agitated.
His incarnation as flowing water was constantly trembling and fluctuating, completely losing its previous stability.
Upon seeing Li Muyang, the Water God General immediately shouted.
"Those damned fellows have brought your sealed divine body into Fuyun City!"
"But we can’t enter Fuyun City, the red fog within the city is a grand formation set up by Fairy Qinghe back then!"
"Once you enter it rashly, you’ll undoubtedly die!"
Saying so, the Water God General swung his divine spear, pointing the tip towards the southwest.
"Go to Earth Buddha Temple! Inside there are twenty-eight statues of Fairy Qinghe."
"Only with the twenty-eight statues, blessed with Fairy Qinghe’s aura, can you enter Fuyun City!"
The directions provided by the Water God General slightly startled Li Muyang.
"Fairy Qinghe’s statues?"
And twenty-eight of them?
Damn!
There are such treasures hidden inside this ark of beyond?
Those statues are key for reviving Little Wild Grass!
Li Muyang immediately prepared to set out for the Earth Buddha Temple.
Before leaving, he prepared to ask the Water God General what had happened, why he was so anxious.
But before he could speak, the constantly fluctuating incarnation of the Water God General suddenly grunted and then roared in anger.
"Rats attacking me!"
The Water God General, mounted on a fine horse, roared loudly, charging out directly riding the horse, and during the charge, his incarnation disintegrated, exploding into a sky full of water droplets.
Seeing this, Li Muyang instantly understood.
It seems the Water God General has encountered some enemy?
Was he divided in his attention during a fierce battle to remind Li Muyang?
After understanding the situation, Li Muyang immediately left Fuyun City and headed towards the Earth Buddha Temple.
He hadn’t expected that on this ark of beyond, there would be prohibitions left by Little Wild Grass.
But that’s not surprising.
From the introductory CG’s information, this ark of beyond is a Magical Treasure refined jointly by the ancient Group of Immortals.
Little Wild Grass, being one of the Ancient True Immortals, surely left her mark on the ark.
Just didn’t expect that there would be twenty-eight of her statues here.
This is more than all the statues Li Muyang had collected before put together.
Even if these statues are of no help in clearing the game, Li Muyang couldn’t possibly miss them.
He opened the map scroll, found the location of Earth Buddha Temple on the map, and swiftly set off running.
In the midst of the sand and wind, another three two-hour periods of long journey.
Finally, Li Muyang arrived at the location of Earth Buddha Temple marked on the map.
What caught his eyes was a ruined temple with broken gates, moss-covered steps, and temple walls overgrown with green vines, looking slightly desolate.

But the omnipresent Black Wind Sand in the game, stopped outside the dilapidated temple, unable to blow inside.
Li Muyang stepped forward, came to the collapsed temple gate.
He walked up the mossy stone steps, passed through the gate, and entered the empty interior of the temple.
With just one glance, Li Muyang saw the twenty-eight statues enshrined in the main hall.
Those twenty-eight lifelike statues of Fairy Qinghe, replacing Buddha, were enshrined within the temple.
They stood quietly, as if waiting for Li Muyang to fetch them.
But just as Li Muyang took two steps forward, a gentle smiling Buddha phantom quietly appeared in the courtyard of the temple ahead.
"Benefactor, please hold your steps..."
