Is the Gu God Cthulhu?
The earth cracked open.
The sky changed color.
The entire Beast God Abyss was as if a magnitude 10 earthquake had struck.
The rock strata collapsed, with crisscrossing fissures, and dark green, poisonous miasma gushed out from the ground.
A low, rumbling roar echoed as the dilapidated palace complex continued to crumble.
It was as if some peerless ferocious beast was about to break free of its seal and shackles, emerging from the depths of the Beast God Abyss.
Only that tall, magnificent, dilapidated Divine Temple remained unmoved.
Like a pillar stabilizing the sea, it firmly takes root in the ever-shaking Beast God Abyss.
Gao Yunyi sat quietly on the Black Stone Divine Throne, his blue robes billowing in the wind, his gaze calmly surveying the collapsed palaces, the cracked earth, and the miasma and roaring winds surging up from the fissures.
Ma Yi's face radiated confidence.
Because this is the power of the gods, capable of shaking mountains and rivers and overturning the earth with a mere gesture.
Although the young master subdued the Gu King and tamed the Mountain Lord,
But it is not a god.
The Gu God behind her is the true deity.
She was only granted a portion of power by the Gu God, yet she was able to easily kill her Mother and Older Sister and rule the entire Black Li Stockade.
This extraordinary and powerful force,
That is the true power and Divine Ability gods.
However, Ma Yi's confidence vanished in just a few seconds.
Because she noticed that the young master's expression hadn't changed at all; it remained as calm and indifferent as ever.
Why?
Shouldn't mortals feel fear, awe, and trembling when they see the true God?
Why is the young master so calm and composed?
"Roar--"
Suddenly, a powerful and majestic tiger's roar interrupted Ma Yi's doubts and thoughts.
The Mountain Lord, who was originally trembling and crawling at Gao Yunyi's feet, immediately bristled like steel needles when he saw that evil and eerie aura emanating from the ground.
It rose, lowered its head, and let out a deep, rumbling roar from its chest. It was not out of fear, but rather the warning roar of the king of beasts when facing a formidable enemy.
The Mountain Lord's enormous tiger eyes were fixed on the surging dark green miasma deep within the Beast God Abyss, while its tail tip slammed heavily against the ground, sending up rubble.
As the Mountain Lord of tigers, the mountain lord is naturally the nemesis of all poisons. However, the power surging from the bottom of the abyss was too ancient and ferocious, causing it to instinctively tense its muscles and bones, baring its fangs, as if it were ready for a fight to the death.
The Mountain Lord turned its head to look at Gao Yunyi beside it, letting out a short tiger roar, as if asking for instructions, or perhaps reminding its master that an evil spirit was about to arrive.
Hearing the Mountain Lord's reminder, Gao Yunyi merely glanced down at it, then gently lifted one foot and pressed its majestic tiger body back to the ground.
The Mountain Lord's roar seemed to have enraged the Gu God that crawled out of the ground, causing it to emerge from the earth even faster and more fiercely.
Once the other party had completely crawled out from the cracked ground, it finally revealed its true form.
It was a colossal object formed from countless intertwined and condensed worms, broken bones, poisonous miasma, and flesh.
Its body was like a hill, covered with countless insect legs, mouths, and compound eyes, with millions of compound eyes flickering with eerie green flames.
Its body was constantly flowing with thick, dark green Gu nectar, which caused the earth to rot and the vegetation to wither instantly wherever it landed.
It flapped its wings and took off from the ground, hovering in mid-air above the Beast God Abyss. The giant creature, formed from Gu worms, resentment, and poisonous mist, slowly unfurled, and a hoarse sound mixed with the chirping of countless insects echoed throughout the valley.
This is the Gu God that Ma Yi awakened by sacrificing herself and the entire Black Li Stockade.
This is also the legendary Demon God was suppressed in the Beast God Abyss and sealed beneath the Divine Temple.
Looking at the ugly and twisted monster in front of him, Gao Yunyi suddenly thought of the Cthulhu novels he had read before.
This Gu God that crawled out of the ground looks exactly like an Great Old One from the Cthulhu Mythos.
It cannot be named, cannot be looked at, cannot be heard, cannot be speculated upon.
Madness, distortion, the unknown, the bizarre.
So this is the truth of the world?
The world he transmigrated to was not an ordinary world, but a Savage Wilderness place where High Antiquity mysteries lay dormant and ancient evil gods lurked.
Hahaha...
This joke isn't funny at all.
Gao Yunyi's lips curled up slightly, as if amused by his own sudden flash of inspiration.
If the illusions and hallucinations created by Gray Cicada were actually things that had happened in the past...
So the indescribable monster that appeared before him was actually something he had created himself.
A failed experiment.
A piece of trash, abandoned and buried deep underground.
"You hate me?"
Gao Yunyi spoke slowly, looking at the twisted monster that resembled a hill.
The Gu God's millions of compound eyes flashed simultaneously, revealing a gaze of anger and hatred, filled with a vengeful and frenzied obsession.
Ma Yi was stunned for a moment.
Young Master actually knows the God of Gu God?
Didn't you only arrive in Miaojiang a year ago, young master? How could you possibly know the Gu God who has been asleep for a thousand years?
She suddenly realized that things were not going well, and were far from what she had expected.
It seems that the God of Gu God was not awakened from his thousand-year slumber by being moved by her or summoned by her.
It's not about helping her, clearing obstacles for her, or fulfilling her obsessions and wishes.
The Gu God's target from the very beginning was the young master.
She was merely a pawn, used to manipulate the young master.
Looking at the terrifying true form in mid-air, twisted and covered with countless poisonous creatures, and seeing its millions of compound eyes fixed on the young master on the Divine Throne with such hatred, Ma Yi suddenly awoke from her dream.
But it was all too late.
The Gu God was summoned by her through sacrifice of herself, her family, and tens of thousands of people from the entire Black Li Stockade.
Moreover, as more and more Miao people die in the Hundred Thousand Mountains, the power of the Gu God will become stronger and stronger.
The young master is doomed.
Although Ma Yi didn't understand what had happened between the young master and the Gu God, she didn't want him to die young; she wanted to spend the rest of her life with him.
Then Ma Yi suddenly turned around.
"Lord Gu God, you promised me you wouldn't harm him."
The Gu God's millions of compound eyes rolled, looking down at the Ma Yi below with a mocking and sarcastic gaze.
At the same time,
An evil and eerie aura swept out.
Ma Yi coughed up blood, knelt on the ground, her face filled with pain and indignation.
"You made a promise... Why did you break it?"
Ma Yi's voice trembled as she forced herself to lie heavily on the blood-stained stone, vomiting mouthful after mouthful of blood. Her vision was blurred, but she still struggled to lift her eyes and look at the Gu God.
But the Gu God didn't look at her again; it seemed that to it, an ant that had lost its value wasn't worth another glance.
Dark, foul-smelling Gu energy continuously seeped from the wounds on Ma Yi's body, and countless tiny Gu worms wriggled beneath her skin.
"Ah..."
Ma Yi let out an excruciating scream, her face contorted with regret and despair.
"Young master, I'm so sorry, it's Ma Yi's fault! Run! Young master, run!"
Despite her pain and regret, Ma Yi turned and crawled toward the young master. She thought that by doing such a thing, the young master would be angry and hate her.
But no,
Gao Yunyi's gaze towards her held no anger, no hatred, not even pity or sympathy.
It still feels like looking at a cold, lifeless stone.
It had absolutely no temperature.
