A bizarre resurgence begins with a pact made by a weasel.

Tear!

The nun's body exploded in front of Xie Qing.

Amidst the splattering blood, a giant, crimson lizard, its jaws agape, lunged at him.

This lizard is somewhat similar to the Komodo dragon on Earth, but it is much larger. Its body is covered with red scales, and its gaping maw is filled with fine, sharp teeth.

"Damn it!!"

Xie Qing instinctively sensed a threat and rolled to the left.

Rumble!

The stone-paved ground cracked instantly.

A large amount of gravel flew out like bullets, many of which hit Xie Qing, leaving many bruises.

A stone pit about two meters deep instantly appeared where Xie Qingyuan had been standing.

Without thinking twice, he took out a paper gun and shot it fiercely into the lizard's eyes.

The Red-toothed Dragon turned its head to dodge.

Click, click!

The bullets all landed on its neck, shattering its scales before continuing to penetrate deeper.

"It's done!"

Xie Qing was overjoyed, but to his surprise, instead of blood splattering from the bullet hole, wisps of smoke rose from it.

Only then did he realize that Huang Jue's bullets were actually made of paper; they weren't fireproof at all!

The Red-toothed Dragon was also stunned, but it quickly came to its senses, and its already ferocious dragon head became even more terrifying.

call!

It opened its mouth and inhaled sharply.

Sparks flew from its black throat.

follow closely,

Rumble!

Crimson flames spewed outwards, sweeping away everything in sight.

Xie Qing rolled on the spot. Although he wasn't hit, the sweltering heat made him bubbly all over. He took off running back frantically.

We can't beat them, we simply can't beat them.

The difference in combat power was too great; he didn't even have a weapon that could effectively break through the enemy's defenses, so he had no choice but to retreat.

He climbed onto the platform, grabbed the blood parrot from the ground, and was about to run towards the back garden when suddenly, something unexpected happened. The blood parrot, which should have died, suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, flapping its wings and screeching:

"Die!"

"Die!!"

With its last ounce of strength, it stretched out its tail feathers and tripped Xie Qing.

"Hehe, 26."

Watching Xie Qing struggle and wriggle, the bird finally closed its eyes contentedly.

now,

The Red-toothed Dragon had already leaped into the air, its body blazing with intense flames, and it crashed down onto the platform like a cannonball.

That's too late!

Xie Qingcai had just gotten up when the Red-toothed Dragon landed on top of him.

The surging heat even ignited his hair.

"Are we doomed?"

My mind was flashing with all sorts of images like a revolving lantern.

Those were scenes from time travel.

In the end,

The image freezes on a bizarre catalog.

"Three-phase diagram!!!"

Xie Qing came to her senses.

"Let's give it our all!!"

He suddenly pulled a scroll from his spatial storage and hurled it forcefully at the Red-toothed Dragon.

call!

Just as it was about to touch the dragon's head, the Three-Phase Diagram burst into flames, and an ancient mask floated out from the firelight. A massive amount of blue mist gushed out from the mask, spreading wildly and filling the entire hall in an instant.

Wherever the fog touched, space and time seemed to stand still.

The Red-toothed Dragon hung motionless in mid-air, even the surging heat and flames around it seemed frozen in place.

【Ding! 】

【Treasure Activation - Masterpiece Face】

[The author, Jia, was a subject of the impoverished, and a predator of ferocious beasts.]

[A ritual artifact originating from an ancient dynasty, this mask is forged from the armor of a mythical beast, with mysterious patterns engraved on the inside. It possesses the power to devour ferocious beasts and demons, and to bolster one's aura and quell their wrath.]

[Treasure Level: E-(C)]

Time has worn it down, and its power has waned. Perhaps drinking the blood of a vengeful spirit will restore it to its former glory.

[Secret Treasure Skill: None]

"it works!!"

Just as Xie Qing relaxed slightly,

【Ding! 】

New text has emerged again.

[Abnormal fluctuations were detected in the surface of work A.]

The remnants of ancient power are reviving.

Boom boom boom!

Boom boom boom!

The sound of bells and drums rang out like raindrops.

The green mist surged and contracted, eventually coalescing into a blurry figure.

Wearing armor as a mask, with beast horns on his head and a bare, strong upper body, he stepped onto the back of the Red-toothed Dragon.

He actually used a beast as his platform!!

Knock knock knock knock,

Amid the drumbeats,

He twisted his waist and back, pinched his pinky fingers, and stretched out his arms.

The muscular arms, like two giant worms, wiggled their antennae as they emerged from their nest.

follow closely,

Slightly rotate your wrist.

It looked like a worm searching for ferocious creatures in the void.

what!

He has found his target.

He then stomped heavily, and the frozen Red-toothed Dragon instantly awoke, letting out a violent scream.

Ooooooooooo!

It twitched in mid-air, and the wildly shaking stage made the dancers' movements even more ferocious.

The drumbeats grew faster and faster, and the dancers' movements became more and more exaggerated. With each stomp and leap, the Red-toothed Dragon splattered hot blood, and the beast's screams became the perfect background music for the dance.

His dance was neither delicate nor magnificent, but it was filled with a strange and wild charm. Xie Qing couldn't help but take a step forward. The figure on the stage turned around and looked over. He stretched out his finger and gently beckoned.

"Together?"

"Together!"

Xie Qing started dancing along.

In both his past and present lives, he was not skilled in dance.

But at this moment,

All it takes is emotion.

Every action is a channel for emotional release.

On stage and off stage.

The gap between ancient and modern times.

They met in this dance.

`·····

I don't know how much time passed.

【Ding】

The notification sound from the panel startled Xie Qing awake.

He then realized that he was the only one left in the hall; the Red-toothed Dragon and the mysterious figure had both disappeared.

Only the ancient mask he held in his hand hinted at everything that had happened to him.

You have obtained the rare item - Crafted Face (甲作之面).

[Due to consuming the flesh and blood of the Red-toothed Dragon, the level of the Face of the A- has increased from E- to E.]

[Amazing Traits: Feedback E (After devouring a ferocious beast, it can replenish the host's power by three layers), Motivation E (When wearing the mask, it can boost morale and reduce enemy deterrence), Intimidation E+ (Extremely strong deterrence against ferocious creatures), Perseverance E, Charisma E]

[Wonder Skill: Distant Dance Festival (E+)]

The older the piece, the more captivating the wearer's charm becomes. Offering your dance to those lost to history might yield unexpected rewards.

[Unique Skill: Devour (E)] Allows the user to devour creatures of a lower level than themselves.

[Wonderful Ability: Rust Removal (E) - Offering sacrifices will restore a portion of lost power.]

Xie Qing gently put on the mask.

In an instant,

A warm current flowed from between my eyebrows to my limbs and bones.

This is the original life source that belonged to the Red-toothed Dragon.

Your endurance increases from F to E-, and your strength increases from F to E-.

[You have mastered the extraordinary skill - Nuo Dance · Fuwei E+]

This is truly a fruitful experience!

Xie Qing opened his own attribute panel.

[Secret Treasure: Crafted Mask E (C)]

All attributes have been slightly improved.

The rank has jumped from F to E, and the dancer profession has been added.

Looking at the panel, Xie Qing felt that he was now able to compete with Huang Jue.

And everything depends on this armor.

He took off the mask and rubbed it gently.

"Grade C..."

"This mask was originally rated C!"

Xie Qing dared not imagine how much improvement the Armored Face would bring him if he were to regain his full strength.

"And that blurry figure must be a great figure from a distant era!!"

And this treasure was hidden inside the original owner's mother's skin.

So,

What lies hidden in Du Shenge's blood, flesh, and bones...?

"And the seed she left behind..."

Xie Qing couldn't help but stare at her palm.

"What are they hiding now?"

Just as he was deep in thought, a commotion arose outside the church. It seemed that the earlier disturbance had finally attracted the attention of the surrounding people. He quickly picked up the blood parrot and headed towards the garden, the meeting place he had arranged with Huang Qi beforehand.

Just as Xie Qing passed the statue, he suddenly stopped.

He turned around, dug out the gold inlaid on the statue, and put it in his mouth.

"Melting Gold!"

Xie Qing opened his mouth and spat out,

call!

The golden flames instantly ignited the remaining buildings one by one.

After doing all this, he jogged to the corner of the garden wall. Xie Qing whistled, and a moment later, a fluffy little head peeked out from over the wall:

"Young Master, why are you covered in blood?!"

The weasel's voice was unmistakably Huang Qi's.

"Stop arguing and get me away from here."

"Brothers, come and lend a hand!" As soon as Huang Qi finished speaking, six more little heads popped up on either side of the little head.

The weasels linked together, like a rope thrown towards Xie Qing. Xie Qing reached out, grabbed it, and pushed off with his hind legs, using the momentum to leap over the towering wall. A car was parked outside the wall.

"Walk!"

Xie Qing climbed into the car, and the seven weasels followed him in one after another.

Huang Qi transformed into human form and drove the car towards the outer perimeter.
