247

Mark looked deep into the passage and found no trace of Toby and Moloch. He hesitated for a moment and put the pale blue fragment of the holy stone close to his chest. The fragment seemed to be attracted by something, trembling slightly, and the light it emitted became stronger. After a moment, the fragment turned into a stream of light and merged into Mark's body. A powerful energy instantly surged through his body, and the original fatigue was swept away, replaced by an unprecedented sense of power. The muscle fibers seemed to be full of vitality, and the bones became tougher. Mark clenched his fists, feeling the surging power in his body, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. However, this joy did not last long. The ground began to shake violently, and complex red runes appeared on the walls on both sides of the passage, emitting dazzling light, like fire snakes wandering on the walls. There were constant gravel falling from the top of the passage, making a loud "boom" sound, and the entire passage seemed to be about to collapse. Mark's face changed suddenly. He realized that something was wrong, and immediately reached out to take out the fragment of the holy stone, but found that the fragment had completely merged with him and could not be separated. An uneasy premonition came to his mind, and he looked around with vigilance in his eyes.

The red rune glowed brighter and brighter, and the rune seemed to come alive, constantly twisting and deforming, and finally formed a huge magic circle, trapping Mark in it. The magic circle emitted powerful energy fluctuations, forming an invisible barrier, isolating Mark from the outside world.

Toby and Moloch, who were hiding in the dark, slowly walked out. They looked at Mark trapped in the magic circle with a cold smile on their faces. Toby held a dark red crystal ball in his hand, and the surface of the crystal ball was covered with cracks, exuding a strange breath.

"Three people become sacrifices to welcome my god."

Toby and Moloch said in unison, their voices were low and hoarse, echoing in the empty passage.

Mark stared at Toby and Moloch with cold eyes, and he asked in a deep voice: "What do you want to do?"

Toby sneered and said, "You will understand soon." He raised the crystal ball in his hand above his head, and the crystal ball emitted a blood-red light.

At the same time, the fragments of the holy stone in Mark's body also emitted a blood-red light, echoing the crystal ball in Toby's hand. The two rays of light intertwined with each other, forming a powerful energy vortex that enveloped Mark, Toby and Moloch.

Mark only felt a blackness in front of his eyes, as if his body was pulled by a powerful force, and his consciousness gradually blurred. When he opened his eyes again, he found himself in an ethereal spiritual world. It was all white around him, with no distinction between up and down, left and right, and no concept of the passage of time.

"Where is this place?" Mark whispered to himself, his voice echoing in the void, but he received no response. He tried to move his body, but found that he seemed to have lost his entity and could only float in this ethereal world like a ghost.

In the distance, the figures of Toby and Moloch gradually became clear. They were also floating in the air with strange smiles on their faces.

"Welcome to the realm of "him."

Toby's voice came from all directions, as if from another dimension.

"Here, you will become a sacrifice and contribute to the coming of "Him."

Mark clenched his fists, and a trace of anger flashed in his eyes. Although he didn't understand what happened and where he was, he would never surrender.

"Want me to be a sacrifice? Dream on!"

A faint golden light appeared around Mark, and this was the power of the holy stone fragments surging in his body.

He stared at Toby and said word by word: "I don't care who "He" is. If you want to use me, you have made a wrong calculation!" He slowly raised his hands, palms facing outward, and the golden light gradually condensed to form two dazzling balls of light.

Seeing this, Toby's smile on his face gradually converged, replaced by a trace of solemnity. He tilted his head slightly and whispered to Moloch: "It seems that this kid is more difficult to deal with than we thought." Moloch didn't speak, but nodded silently, began to seal with his hands, and muttered something in his mouth, as if preparing some kind of spell.

In the white space, Mark, Toby, and Moloch confronted each other. The crystal ball in Toby's hand flickered, echoing the light ball in Mark's palm, as if they were in a silent contest.

"Toby, give up, you won't succeed." Mark's voice was low and firm, and the golden light ball spun in his hand, emitting powerful energy fluctuations. He stretched out his hand, and the light ball slowly floated towards Toby.

Toby smiled contemptuously, and the crystal ball in his hand glowed red, forming a barrier to block Mark's attack. The light ball hit the barrier, making a muffled sound, and then dissipated into nothingness.

"Is that all you can do?" Toby looked at Mark provocatively, his eyes full of disdain.

Mark ignored Toby's provocation, took a deep breath, and condensed two larger light balls with his hands again. This time, the energy in the light ball was more refined, and the golden light was more dazzling.

Moloch stopped chanting, pushed his hands forward suddenly, and a black energy wave went straight to Mark. Mark dodged quickly, and the black energy wave brushed past his body, leaving a black mark in the void.

Mark's eyes were stern, and he knew he couldn't delay any longer. He merged the two balls of light in his hands together to form a huge golden ball of light. The surface of the ball of light flashed with arcs, emitting heart-pounding energy fluctuations. "It's over!" Mark roared, and pushed the golden ball of light in his hand towards Toby and Moloch.

The golden ball of light cut through the void like a meteor, carrying destructive power, and went straight to the two of them. Toby and Moloch's faces changed drastically, and they realized that this power was so strong that they couldn't resist it at all.

Toby quickly blocked the crystal ball in front of him, and the red light of the crystal ball surged, trying to resist the attack of the golden ball of light. However, the power of the golden ball of light was too strong, and the defense of the crystal ball was instantly disintegrated, and the red light also dimmed.

Moloch quickly retreated, trying to avoid the attack of the golden ball of light. However, the speed of the golden ball of light was too fast, and he couldn't escape at all.

The golden light ball finally hit Toby and Moloch, bursting out a dazzling light, illuminating the entire empty space. After the light dissipated, Toby and Moloch's figures disappeared, leaving only a void.
