The next morning, Zhang Chen and Ke Ke appeared in the woods near the volcano.
After a night of treatment, Ke Ke was full of vigor, and her strength seemed to have advanced further.
Zhang Chen couldn't help but marvel at how magical succubi were, recovering their stamina so quickly. He had thought she was going to die last night, but after surviving, she had become even more powerful.
After the treatment, Ke Ke was also significantly more independent.
She was finally no longer clinging to Zhang Chen as if she wanted to stick to him forever.
"Master, I sense a passage on the side of the volcano that leads to its interior... perhaps that is the Endless Abyss."
"However, there are some monsters with weak energy lingering around that passage. Do you need me to deal with them?"
Ke Ke asked.
"Yes, you take care of all those monsters. Don't touch the Ancient God's Soul."
"I'm very curious if these Ancient God Apostles have the ability to resurrect the Ancient God,"
Zhang Chen said with curiosity.
"Okay, Master, I'll be right back."
Ke Ke finished speaking, smiled sweetly, and then transformed into a cloud of red-black mist, flying towards another part of the volcano.
Half an hour later, Ke Ke flew back again and landed beside Zhang Chen.
Zhang Chen was sitting at the top of a large tree, with Ke Ke sitting beside him.
"Done, Master. When I left, I saw those Ancient God Apostles heading up the mountain."
Ke Ke replied.
"Did you see the Ancient God's Soul then?"
Zhang Chen asked.
"Yes, it felt similar to the Ancient God's Heart, like a smooth large stone."
Ke Ke answered truthfully.
"A smooth large stone... did you touch it?" Zhang Chen asked nervously.
"Yes, but Master, don't worry. I didn't use much force this time, I just gently stroked it. It didn't seem to have any special energy, it was very ordinary!"
Ke Ke saw Zhang Chen's worry and quickly explained.
"That's good. Now it's up to the Ancient God Apostles. Let's go and watch the excitement!"
Zhang Chen said with a smile.
The Ancient God's Heart had no energy, and the Ancient God's Soul also had no energy...
Then where did this Ancient God come from?
It couldn't have just been built by stacking a pile of stones, could it?
The Ancient God Apostles successfully entered the Endless Abyss and took the Ancient God's Soul.
The entire process was so smooth that even the leader of the black-clothed men found it incredible.
He had summoned all the Ancient God Apostles, firstly to witness the miracle of the Ancient God's revival, and secondly to deal with the monsters in the tunnel.
He hadn't expected it to be so smooth this time, not encountering a single monster.
"Perhaps the Ancient God is protecting us. This time it was too smooth!"
"The grand moment of the Ancient God's rebirth is imminent!"
The leader of the black-clothed men, along with the Ancient God Apostles, marched mightily to the altar beside the Endless Abyss.
It was said that the Ancient God came from the Endless Abyss, so by sacrificing here, it could truly be revived.
Soon, the leader of the black-clothed men placed the various body parts of the Ancient God together in the order recorded in the ancient texts, and then began to chant the incantation.
"Does the Endless Abyss have a spatial teleportation gate to another world?"
Zhang Chen asked curiously.
"The Endless Abyss is just a lava pool. I didn't sense any spatial energy fluctuations... and... would someone open a spatial teleportation gate in such a location... wouldn't they be roasted as soon as they teleported in?"
Ke Ke chuckled, perhaps imagining the Ancient God being roasted upon its appearance.
If that happened, it would be hilarious.
"I really don't know if these Ancient God Apostles can do it. The incantations they are chanting do not conform to the laws of energy construction at all. Many of them contain obvious logical and construction errors..."
"As masters of dark magic, they shouldn't be worse than first-year magic students, should they?"
Zhang Chen frowned.
"That's what makes it interesting! The Ancient God's Heart was swapped for a random big stone they picked up, the Ancient God's Soul is also an ordinary stone, and their so-called dark magic incantations are all messed up..."
"Master, if the Ancient God were to revive under these circumstances, wouldn't that be incredibly amusing?!"
Ke Ke said with a grin, her face full of excitement.
"I really can't understand this move!"
Zhang Chen shook his head.
Logically, since it was recorded in ancient texts, it should be correct.
It's not like someone just made up a fake set of ancient texts for no reason.
Just as Zhang Chen was puzzling over this, suddenly, a fierce wind arose, and the sky changed color.
A huge vortex appeared above the altar, and a powerful energy slowly flowed out from the vortex, gradually sprinkling onto the altar.
"This energy... it's so strong!"
Ke Ke's tail suddenly slipped out from her skirt, twitching in mid-air.
"Indeed, it's very strong, and this energy is very mixed, possessing the power of creation and destruction, as well as an unknown power, which seems to be what I've been searching for."
Zhang Chen narrowed his eyes, and the energy in his body involuntarily trembled.
Like the succubus, his energy would react automatically when a powerful enemy appeared.
This was the first time Zhang Chen had felt his internal energy stimulated so actively since leaving the apocalypse.
Before, he had been suppressing it, suppressing it, and suppressing it again, for fear of accidentally gaining the title of Star-Shatterer.
Now... the power before him reignited his excitement.
Hum!
A bolt of black lightning descended from the sky and struck the altar silently.
Then, the entire ground began to shake violently.
Boom!
The magma within the volcano erupted instantly, and countless fireballs rained down, setting the surrounding villages ablaze.
The sky also turned dark red, resembling the end of the world.
"Hiss... Master, this Ancient God... it seems to be real!"
"This energy, I feel it's very familiar, it seems to be exactly the same as the energy of the great demon Silfachor before."
Ke Ke completely dropped her pretense, spreading a pair of wings from her back, and curved, sharp horns grew from her forehead, with two small fangs appearing at the corners of her lips.
"Then it must be true. If even you think so, then this Ancient God must be related to the third meteorite fragment."
Zhang Chen invigorated himself and with a bang, instantly broke the sound barrier.
In the blink of an eye, he appeared at the edge of the altar.
Ke Ke followed closely behind.
"Hahaha, savior, you're too late! The Ancient God has already awakened, and you're finished!"
"As the most humble servants of the Ancient God, we will reshape the order of the world!"
The leader of the black-clothed men laughed heartily.
His chanting was finished, and the dark magic book had transformed into the last remnant of the Ancient God's body, merging into its form.
A moment later, a woman, five meters tall, exuding an ominous aura, clad in heavy armor of slaughter, appeared on the altar.
"I... am back!"
