Chapter 702: Chapter 235: The Sect Master’s Wife Teaches Xi Xi to Vent Her Anger, A Great Surge Arises as the Demon Ape Comes to the World – Strange Que 4

The Divine Weapon was wielded to perfection.

Thump thump thump—!!!

Suddenly, within the Mysterious Temple, many Woodcarving Masters absorbed in observing the Temple God wood carving felt a tremor in their hearts, as if a terrifying presence was hammering at their chests.

Their hearts leapt with fear!

They all turned their heads to look, only to find out that the rough sculpture emerging was the one carved by Li Che!

“Is that… a Demon Ape?!”

“Wasn’t he carving the Temple God?”

“How foolish, the woodcarving masters from the Su Family, the Yun Family, and the Zhou Family are all carving imitations of the Temple God. That Divine Monkey wrapped in a Kasaya is extraordinarily distinguished…”

“This young man, he’s actually not carving the Temple God? Carving a Demon Ape… isn’t this just reckless?”

Many Woodcarving Masters sighed regretfully.

Feeling it was a great pity.

Because they recognized the Fifth-Order Spiritual Wood, the Blood Fire Divine Pattern Bodhi Wood…

Yet, such Spiritual Wood was being wasted by Li Che!

“Risking one’s own life and using a piece of Fifth-Order Spiritual Wood just to carve a Divine Sculpture that’s completely distinct from the Temple God… utterly foolish.”

At this moment.

Su Huaiming was also nearing the finishing stage.

Although the Divine Eagle Assessment did not restrict the specific statue of the deity to be carved, still…

Carving the Temple God was naturally the best choice.

The Divine Sculpture would ultimately need to withstand the God’s Intent clash…

How could ordinary statues contend with the Temple God?

“Foolish boy… arrogant boy…”

Su Huaiming sneered.

Seeing the Blood Fire Divine Pattern had reached his chin, Su Huaiming shook his head, dismissive.

“It seems I won’t need to ask my family to deal with this youngster.”

Su Huaiming shook his head, finishing his carving.

At this moment, Li Che was oblivious to external distractions.

The falling Spirit Wood Shavings, the rough sculpture taking shape, was the visage of the Heaven and Earth Form of Spirit True Ape, Divine Appearance.

Though it was only a rough shape, its importance was paramount, its divine charm was already evident!

The clanging sounds continued incessantly as Li Che kept on carving, sparks flying in all directions.

That was the light of fire sparked by cutting the excess shavings of the Blood Fire Divine Pattern Bodhi Wood!

“The fog tide is rising!”

Suddenly, a Woodcarving Master exclaimed in surprise.

They stopped their wood carving and swiftly flew toward the entrance of the Mysterious Temple.

At a glance, they saw at the end of the vast and desolate land, a white and dense Mysterious Fog rolling in like a tidal wave!

Fog tide, that is a specialized term within the Mysterious Temple!

In the Strange Que, encountering a fog tide is extremely dangerous; it is best to leave Strange Que within a very short time, or seek shelter inside the Mysterious Temple.

Otherwise…

One might be torn apart by the Temple Guardian Cursed Corpses and Mysterious Fog that could appear at any moment during the fog tide!

The hearts of the Divine Carvers trembled.

How…

Why would a tide suddenly arise?!

At the same time.

Su Huaiming let out a loud chant, his engraving knife dropping the final stroke.

In an instant, the rolling Divinity within the entire Mysterious Temple was suddenly drawn towards the Divine Sculpture that resembled the Statue of the Deity by about seventy to eighty percent!

“So it was… Master Su who triggered it?”

“Terrifying! Master Su’s Divine Carving Technique has improved again! He might have reached the level of the Five Old Divine Sculptors, right? Once the temple god statue succeeds, tides rise and ebb within the Strange Que!”

Su Huaiming was full of confidence, his sleeves fluttering.

Listening to these words and looking outside the Mysterious Temple at the fog tide, he couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

“Not bad.”

He gave himself a nine-point rating!

Holding back one point, for fear of becoming too arrogant!

As a Divine Sculpture Master, one must be humble.

Zhou Tianshui and Yun Haiyang also finished their carving. Their Divine Sculptures also madly gathered and siphoned the Divinity inside the Mysterious Temple.

However, compared to Su Huaiming’s Divine Sculpture, it was somewhat lacking.

But it was not much, there was still a chance!

Zhou Tianshui shook his engraving knife hand and said solemnly with shining eyes: “How powerful God’s Intent is can only be known after the actual clash.”

Zhou Tianshui spoke in a grave voice.

Su Huaiming was unconcerned; he was already sure of victory.

Just one look and he knew that the wood carvings of Yun Haiyang and Zhou Tianshui were inferior to his.

He was steady.

Zhou Tianshui and Yun Haiyang looked towards the spot where Li Che was located.

They only watched from afar, not approaching Li Che, not disturbing him.

Woodcarving Masters do not disturb each other while carving; this is common understanding, basic etiquette.

Even at higher levels, this basic etiquette is still maintained.

The Divine Sculpture carved from Blood Fire Divine Pattern Bodhi Wood seemed to come alive, with rolling thunderous roars between heaven and earth!

The sound of beating chests was like muffled thunder!

Every single flying monkey hair was vividly lifelike, on the details of the carving, Li Che had truly given his all!

“Amazing, such exquisite carving skill! Has he reached the Realm of Perfection?!”

Yun Haiyang was amazed.

Su Huaiming narrowed his eyes and said nothing, for technically, Li Che’s skill was indeed not weaker than those Divine Carvers who had been immersed for dozens or even a hundred years.

Boom—!!!

When Li Che made the final stroke, completing the carving of a flying monkey spear!

In an instant!

The temperature within the entire Strange Que surged as if an ultimate illusory flame had ignited!

That was the Temple God Divinity drifting between heaven and earth!

However…

The Divine Sculpture carved by Li Che did not gather this Temple God Divinity…

It only gripped its hand, as if condensing the drifting Temple God Divinity within the Mysterious Temple into a glowing golden staff!

“It’s done!”

Li Che stepped back abruptly, gasping heavily.

His Essence, Qi, and Spirit seemed to have been completely emptied in an instant.
