Chapter 243 The Sacred Tree Gave Me Knowledge
Lie was very excited.
He lowered his head and looked at the stone that had always been a threat to the tribe and a shadow for everyone. Now it was being beaten by him. He felt both excited and proud.
In a mood to show off, he turned around and laughed at the many people of the same tribe who were watching around him, "Haha, did you see that? He's just like me. He was defeated by me just the same. Hahaha..."
Hearing his wild laughter, hundreds of people nearby looked at it in disbelief and shock.
"I can't even defeat the Stone Chief. It's over..."
"What happened to Lie? Why is he like this..."
Despair gradually appeared in everyone's eyes.
A few seconds later, just as Lie was about to put in some extra effort to directly knock the stone off, a strange voice rang in his ears.
"Keep it for now and ask this mortal how he achieved the breakthrough."
Lie paused for a moment, then said to the dying Shi Tou, "I'm curious, how did you break through?"
Shitou remained silent and did not answer him, which seemed to indicate that he would rather die than surrender.
Anger flashed across Lie's eyes, and he was about to continue.
The strange core said calmly, "Let's do business. Keep this person for now. When my real body comes, everything will be clear."
Lie hummed in his heart, but did not show it on the surface. Instead, he smiled at Shi Tou and said, "Hey, I'll spare your life for now and let you see what I will do next."
As he said this, he immediately used his telekinesis to attack the surroundings.
The powerful telekinesis pressed towards everyone with a bang.
"ah……"
In an instant, screams rang out one after another.
"Ahem...what are you going to do?"
Looking at the seriously injured tribesmen, Shi Tou frowned.
"Haha, just watch."
Lie paused, then added, "You will see the coming of a great being! Open your eyes and watch!"
As he said this, he ignored the puzzled Stone and started working with full concentration.
After a period of time, thousands of people were seriously injured by the power of thought, and then they were controlled in the air one by one by Lie, and their throats were cruelly cut and their blood was drained.
Blood was splattered.
The blood flowed on the ground, gradually forming a strange circular pattern.
Those who had been bled were thrown into the center of the strange pattern. They were still twitching all over due to the excessive blood loss, just like the scene of slaughtering pigs, cruel and bloody...
This scene completely chilled the hearts of the hundreds of survivors, as well as the stones who were lying on the ground unable to move but had watched the whole process.
Fear appeared on many people's faces. They couldn't understand why Lie, who was so normal before, had become like this, cruel and evil.
As time goes by, the strange circular pattern gradually becomes complete...
During this process, those who were seriously injured did not give up resistance.
Some tried to use their special abilities to struggle, while others, seeing that they could not resist, could not help but pray to the unknown existence.
"Great sacred tree, please save us!"
"Sacred tree, please..."
"I don't want to die..."
Listening to these prayers before death, Lie's red eyes, which were filled with cruelty, regained some clarity and a strong fear appeared in his heart.
The contact and influence from childhood to adulthood made him develop a fear of the great sacred tree.
Even though he has become powerful now, his reverence for the sacred tree remains the same, and he is very afraid of the punishment from the sacred tree.
Because of this, he hesitated in the movements of his hands.
Just as he hesitated, a strange sneer sounded.
"Are you afraid?"
"Afraid of that, the being that created everything, the center of things, the one with unimaginable power?"
Lie's body trembled slightly, and he nodded subconsciously.
"Stupid!" The Weird Core sneered, "You are really stupid. You have killed so many people, but the great sacred tree you mentioned has never appeared. Don't you find it strange?"
"Listen to these people's prayers before they died. Do you still believe that unknown guy exists?"
Hearing him say this, Lie subconsciously looked around, and then found that all his fellow tribesmen were indeed praying at this moment.
But, no matter how they prayed, the great sacred tree never exerted its power...
"Could it be that everything is fake, and the so-called miracles are just a trick by those eight ancestors to deceive us?"
A fierce and uncertain thought
At this moment, curses filled with resentment rang out all around.
"Lie, you will die!"
"The sacred tree will punish you!"
"you……"
Even though he was full of doubts at this moment, Lie still felt guilty and said in a timid tone, "Bah, if the sacred tree really wanted to punish me, why would it wait until later? It would punish me now."
"This is nothing but a scam by those eight old guys. You have all been fooled by them!"
"The sacred tree is probably just an ordinary tree!"
He slowly explained, "For such a long time, no matter how we offered sacrifices, the sacred tree did not respond and did not show anything."
"It looks no different from an ordinary tree. This is all your imagination. You just won't admit it!"
Lie was trying to cheer himself up at first, but later on he spoke more and more fluently and gradually began to believe it in his heart.
After these words were spoken, those who were cursing were stunned.
Strong words...
Indeed, the sacred tree really is just like an ordinary tree, except that it is a little magical...
Hearing such remarks at this moment, they felt not only more desperate but also filled with loss.
Could it be that the sacred tree is really just an ordinary tree, and everything is just their fantasy?
Just when everyone was in despair, Stone, who was lying on the ground with his last breath, could not help but speak weakly, "The greatness of the sacred tree is beyond your imagination!"
"Yeah?"
Lie shook his head, thinking that Shi Tou was just being stubborn.
However, the next second, Shi Tou said something that shocked him and the people around him.
Shitou had a look of admiration and worship on his face, muttering to himself, "It is because the great sacred tree has bestowed knowledge on me that I have been able to break through so many times. What the eight ancestors have felt, I have also felt..."
The surroundings became a little quiet and people looked at the stone in shock.
"Granted knowledge?"
"Is this true?"
Words of disbelief kept ringing out.
"What did you say?" Lie asked in shock.
Shi Tou shook his head slightly and fell silent again.
However, he remained silent, and everyone made associations based on what he said.
No wonder, no wonder the stone is so strange and can break through one after another!
If so, that makes sense!
Everyone suddenly realized.
At this moment, Lie's face was full of surprise and his heart was full of uneasiness.
Not only him, but even the strange core in his body was surprised at this moment.
