The Growth of a God

Chapter 851 Pure Faith

From the wilderness to the mountains, from outside the city to inside the city, from the ground to the underground...

As Li Hao walked along the way, he noticed many details that he had overlooked at the beginning.

This ruin of a city that was built against the mountains and then destroyed seems to be a real military fortress?

In addition to the artillery and trenches seen at the beginning, a huge military project was actually hollowed out under the mountain.

The huge underground military base is divided into several layers, including command posts, rest rooms, storage rooms, ammunition depots, first aid stations, energy stations and filtered ventilation ducts.

This also explains another doubt in Li Hao's mind.

The creatures that built all of this actually lived under the mountains for a long time.

Those ruined buildings above were merely short-term temporary settlements, which is why there were so few of them and they looked so simple.

At the same time, inside this huge underground military base, Li Hao saw the indigenous people of this world.

Or to be more precise, what Li Hao saw were the deformed corpses left behind by the indigenous people.

The flesh and blood tissues that can be seen everywhere are actually mutated and multiplied with the help of the corpses of these indigenous people.

So, when Li Hao saw the corpses of the indigenous people, each of them was wrapped in thick flesh and blood, perfectly preserving the appearance of fear and struggle in their lifetime.

Of course, none of the above is what really surprised Li Hao.

What really shocked Li Hao was that these indigenous people looked exactly like humans!
Looking at the universe, human form has never been the only direction of evolution.

Especially the humanoid creatures with two eyes, a nose and a mouth, which are exactly the same as humans on Earth.

This obviously can no longer be described as a coincidence.

Considering the existence of the [Heaven and Earth Mysterious Exquisite Pagoda] and the Qi-refining master, Li Hao has reason to believe that there must be a close connection between them.

"Perhaps... this world is the one created by Daozu?"

"If that Taoist master really had been to Earth, or if he was originally from Earth..."

"While this possibility is small, it is not impossible."

"However, it is more likely that the Qi Refiner created these natives."

These two possibilities flashed through Li Hao's mind alternately, making him even more curious about these indigenous people.

"what?"

At this moment, Li Hao, who had reached the core area of ​​the underground fortification, suddenly stopped.

Because in front of Li Hao, there appeared a huge stone statue that had completely collapsed.

This huge stone statue is out of place in the entire underground fortification, but it also presents an inexplicable importance.

"Was this stone sculpture deliberately built in the center of the underground fortification?"

"Or maybe this entire underground fortification is actually built around this stone sculpture?"

Even though countless years have passed, Li Hao still feels the power of faith from this dilapidated, collapsed stone sculpture.

In essence, this dilapidated, collapsed stone sculpture is not actually beautiful.

Even with Li Hao's aesthetic, he can only restore the original abstract and rough image of the stone statue.

He was a big man with a sturdy build and a strong character.

It's just that because the sculptor's skills are not very sophisticated, his stone sculptures look extremely abstract, with no muscle texture or feel at all.

However, in contrast, the sculptor perfectly restored the features of this big man.

In addition to its sturdy body, the most eye-catching feature of this stone sculpture is the flaming hair on its head.

That red color, which always reveals reluctance and resistance no matter how much time has passed, is exactly the color of the strong man's hair. "Will it become a belief and be worshipped after death?"

Squatting down slowly, Li Hao carefully stroked the stone sculpture under his feet, which was already riddled with holes, with a hint of admiration in his eyes.

The power of faith that resides in this stone sculpture is the pure faith that only saints and heroes have after their death.

If it is a living person or god, the faith in the stone carving will become their source of strength and pave their way forward.

"Leave...there..."

Just as Li Hao was about to further explore the identity of the stone statue, a hoarse voice suddenly came from behind him.

Turning his head with a little surprise, Li Hao saw a headless female corpse covered in flesh and blood.

The headless female corpse was originally kneeling in front of the stone statue, but her head had long since turned into bones and rolled to the ground.

But just when Li Hao reached out and touched the stone statue.

The flesh on the neck of the headless female corpse suddenly changed and turned into a sharp mouth full of fangs.

"Leave...there..."

As if it was just repeating this sentence like a machine, the flesh and blood tissue around the headless female corpse began to become restless.

The next second, the exploding muscles turned into tentacles and suddenly smashed towards where Li Hao was.

This is not because the headless female corpse saw through the Xuanhuang Qi and sensed Li Hao's presence, but because she would attack anyone who tried to approach the stone sculpture.
Bang!Bang!Bang!
The muscles lashed the air like long whips, and the flesh on the surface was instantly turned into a rotten state.

Unfortunately, this is all the headless female corpse can do.

Li Hao, who was enveloped by the Xuanhuang Qi, was like a void ghost, completely ignoring the whipping of his muscles.

The violent whip pierced through Li Hao's body and hit the ground again and again, causing the flesh and blood within a radius of dozens of meters to spasm violently.

What's even more bizarre is that no matter how the headless female corpse whipped and attacked, she was never able to touch the dilapidated stone statue.

"Leave...there..."

The strange voice continued to hum, echoing in the underground fortification like a curse.

In a moment, the headless female corpse's rampage seemed to have alarmed something even more bizarre, and the entire underground space shook suddenly.

Rumble…

The flesh and blood tissue covering the surface rippled like waves.

In just a blink of an eye, the waves created by the flesh and blood tissue arrived at the headless female corpse.

Then, a more cruel and merciless devouring appeared.

The flesh and blood that had originally tightly wrapped around the headless lady tightened again, wanting to devour it like a glutton.

Just as the headless female corpse was about to be completely submerged in flesh and blood, a dull explosion suddenly came from deep underground.

Boom!

It was just a dull explosion, but it successfully intimidated the endless flesh and blood.

As for the person who caused all this to happen?
Li Hao was now looking at his feet with a look of surprise, his eyes full of disbelief.

"Nuclear explosion?"

"No, to be precise, it's an atomic fission reaction similar to a nuclear explosion!"

"This fortification is actually a 'nuclear reactor'?"
