“I just don’t know if this enhancement… could be enhanced till which level?”

Xiao Shi was filled with anticipation. Because the power of the four symbols was a whole.

Now, just the enhancement of the evil ghost bloodline alone could not determine the strength of the entire power of the four symbols. He needed the other three lineages to be upgraded as well.

Xiao Shi had a feeling. Since this altar of the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect could strengthen the evil ghost lineage, it could definitely improve the other three lineages. He continued to advance along the square.

Soon, five incomparably huge statues appeared in front of him again. These five statues were all evil ghost statues like the previous statue.

Xiao Shi frowned slightly at this. As he could only use the power of the evil ghost lineage at the moment, the other powers were all banned. Therefore, it would definitely be very difficult for him to face five evil ghosts.

If he chose to fight head-on, he might not be its match. This made him fall into deep thought.

“I feel that there might be some problems with my method.” Xiao Shi felt that only the person in charge could open the altar of the Four Symbols Divine

Martial Sect. In that case, there would probably not be any tests here.

Usually, the test was mainly targeted at ordinary disciples. For a leader of a huge faction, there would not be such a test.

Xiao Shi thought that the original intention of this altar should be to further increase the strength of the person in charge. He did not have to go through a difficult battle to gain anything.

After figuring this out, Xiao Shi increasingly felt that there was a problem with his previous response.

“Since the key to my control of the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect is the heart in my body, and at the same time, after I dealt with that evil ghost, the black smoke it turned into was also absorbed by the heart in my body, then the best way to deal with these evil ghosts should be the heart in my body!”

Xiao Shi began to seriously sense the heart in his body, trying to find the best way to deal with these evil ghosts. However, just as he was sensing, the stone skin on the statues had already begun to shatter and fall off.

Five evil ghosts woke up from the statues one after another. Its scarlet pupils locked onto Xiao Shi as it let out an ear-piercing roar. It seemed that as long as Xiao Shi entered a certain range of the statue, these evil ghosts would wake up.

Xiao Shi frowned. After carefully sensing it, he did not sense a way to deal with these evil ghosts from his heart. After these evil ghosts woke up, they immediately rushed towards him at an astonishing speed.

As such, there was not much time left for Xiao Shi.

“I have no choice. I can only take a gamble!” Xiao Shi’s eyes suddenly turned sharp. He held out his right hand, and stabbed his right hand into his chest. He learned the way Chen Yuan had given him the heart back then. He tore open his chest and grabbed the beating dark red heart in his hand.

When the dark red heart appeared, pitch-black light burst out from his heart. When the black light shone on the five howling evil ghosts, the bodies of the five evil ghosts instantly trembled. It was like snow under the sun. It began to dissolve at an extremely fast speed and turned into black smoke. It was completely absorbed by the heart in Xiao Shi’s hand.

Xiao Shi’s eyes lit up. His guess was right! The purpose of this place’s existence was not to test his ability in the evil ghost lineage, but to strengthen it. As the black smoke formed by these evil ghosts was absorbed by him, the two big bumps on his back and shoulder blades immediately wriggled at high speed.

With a tearing sound, the flesh on his back suddenly split open, and a pair of black wings stretched out. The wing was growing at a visible speed, growing larger and larger. The poison in his body kept increasing. The corrosive and destructive power of the poison became stronger.

If the poison in Xiao Shi’s body could only threaten Sages at most, then with the increase in the toxin, he could already vaguely threaten the Daolord.

Moreover, his appearance in the form of an evil ghost was getting closer and closer to these evil ghosts.

Now, after successfully trying to use the heart, Xiao Shi did not choose to retract the heart and place it in his body. He held the heart and continued forward. One after another, he began to encounter more and more evil ghost statues.

In front of his heart, no matter how many of these evil ghosts appeared, they melted like snow under the black light emitted by his heart. Xiao Shi absorbed more and more black smoke from this and continued to improve.

After absorbing the black smoke formed by more than 20 evil ghosts, the black wings on his back had already grown to nearly three meters. The poison in his body had already reached the point where it could seriously threaten the

Daolord.

This shocked Xiao Shi. He originally thought that the evil ghost lineage could at most grow to the extent where they could barely threaten the Daolord, but he did not expect

After continuously absorbing these evil spirits, his evil ghost lineage had already reached a level where even ordinary Daolords had to retreat In fact, it was even stronger than the power of the four symbols from before.

It had already vaguely reached the level of being comparable to the Qianqi Dao Slash. And this was only the evil ghost of the Four Symbols!

Xiao Shi thought that if the other three lineages could also reach this level, then the power of the Four Symbols in the future might reach the level of a demigod.

This caused Xiao Shi’s heart burn. He was eager to explore deeper areas. While he went further, he had already arrived at the end of the circular square. What was revealed in front of him was an extremely huge and shocking statue.

The entire statue was much larger than the previous evil ghost statues. The statues from before were only five to six meters tall. However, the current statue had already reached an immeasurable height. The statue stood there, as if it could hold up the sky.

Although the statue still looked like an evil ghost, it was very different from the previous evil ghosts. Apart from having six pairs of huge black wings, there was also a black horn covered in many terrifying dense patterns on his forehead.

He was like an emperor among evil ghosts.

“This statue probably has the strength of a demigod at the very least!” Xiao Shi looked at this statue from afar and was very shocked. He was originally a little worried that if this statue “lived” like the evil ghosts from before, his heart might not be able to dissolve it.

But as he approached, this statue did not show any signs of recovery.

Xiao Shi could vaguely sense through the heart in his hand that this statue did not seem to be alive. He felt a powerful seal on the statue’s head. There was a huge connection between this seal and the heart in his hand.

The heart in his hand suddenly emitted a black light. However, these black lights were no longer used on the statue in front of him. Instead, they quickly swallowed Xiao Shi. Therefore, an image appeared in Xiao Shi’s mind.

Under the dark and gloomy sky, a figure floated proudly in the sky. He lowered his head and stared at the many evil ghosts below. “From now on… the Era of Evil Ghosts will be under my control!”

As the figure spoke, he raised his hand, pointed at the head of the leading evil ghost and sealed the entire world into this evil ghost’s body. The evil ghost’s body was quickly petrified under the other party’s seal, turning into a huge statue.

It was the huge statue in front of Xiao Shi.

Xiao Shi suddenly woke up from the scene. His mind was greatly shaken. “In other words, there’s an era sealed in this statue. The evil ghost lineage of the Four Symbols Divine Martial Sect was actually formed from an era!”
