American Exorcism Male God

Bastet glared at Xu Yi, flames rising all over its body, seemingly about to pounce and tear Xu Yi into shreds at any second.

Xu Yi just quietly watched the other, a faint smile still hanging on his face.

After suppressing the Evil God into Soul Jade, Xu Yi immediately fed it to the Annabelle doll.

The reason for small talk with Bastet was nothing but to buy time for Annabelle's doll to assimilate.

[Progress of Annabelle's Toy House: 2800/5000]

The Treasure Box needed a whopping 5,000 experience points to evolve into a Toy House. Previously, when it devoured the Soul Jade of Bashiba, it gained only a little over ten points.

He had thought it would take a great deal of time, but to his surprise, just by devouring an Incarnation of the Evil God, the progress instantly surpassed half.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Having devoured so much Power of the Evil God, the Toy Box had expanded its size by dozens of times, equivalent to a room of over fifty square meters.

Moreover, all three sides of the Box had transformed into "metallic walls." If he encountered gunfire again, with a slight adjustment in the angle at which the bullets entered, he could easily fend them off.

Bastet and Xu Yi stared at each other for a long while, with the former's vicious gaze almost seeming to choose someone to devour.

But soon it could no longer maintain its form. Its body was enveloped in light, and as the light dissipated, it reverted back to that silly, round-faced cat.

"What am I supposed to do now?" Bastet lamented as if it had lost all will to live.

Xu Yi had anticipated this; the silly round-faced cat could only scare people by assuming the guise of Fire Gui, never daring to take real action.

In Bastet's eyes, Xu Yi had just killed Ratma, an act akin to "killing the Rat to awe the Cat." The cowardly cat didn't have the guts to turn against him, the "God Slayer."

It was unexpected for Xu Yi, who had taught it to scare Ratma with the appearance of Fire Gui, would turn the tactic on Xu Yi in a blink.

"Think on the bright side! Now that you have my protection, you don't have to worry about getting hurt, and you can do whatever you want. By the way, is there anything in particular you want to do?" Xu Yi asked.

As a master of Psychology, Xu Yi's ability to offer psychological guidance was formidable.

"Something I want to do?" Bastet paused for a moment, it had never pondered such matters.

Each time it awoke, it was either trying to escape from human entanglement or being targeted by demons or Evil Gods; there was never time to think about such things.

"No problem, you have plenty of time to think," Xu Yi suddenly changed tone, his expression becoming serious, "Don't resist, embrace my power!"

The Authority of the Evil God activated!

Xu Yi's body became the "Key," the key to unlocking some kind of sublime power.

They were in the real sewers, and after the death of Ratma, the Dark Realm had also vanished.

But as Xu Yi activated the Authority of the Evil God, vast shadows descended once more. The shadows enveloped Xu Yi, and his body slowly disappeared, merging into the shadows.

At this moment, Xu Yi felt strange, his perspective infinitely elevated. Although it was Bastet that was actually hovering in the air, he felt as if he was looking down upon it.

Otherworldly perspective! The gaze of the Evil God!

Two phrases flashed through his mind, and Xu Yi suddenly understood why Ratma would cast such a gaze so frequently—it felt absolutely exhilarating.

Under the gaze of the Evil God, everything seemed like mere ants, and the sensation was addictive.

But Xu Yi was keenly aware that it was just an illusion; if Ratma had truly been that powerful, it wouldn't have been reduced to a mere set of molars, becoming one of his collectibles.

"This ability to gaze as the Evil God might come in handy at times," Xu Yi thought.

Bastet's hair stood on end. Through its eyes, Xu Yi appeared as a massive shadowy worm, with countless tendrils extending from the edges of the shadow, seemingly about to pull it into an abyss of darkness.

Having personally slain Ratma, Xu Yi had already induced fear in it. Now, witnessing Xu Yi's "other side," it dared not resist even more.

Moreover, even if it wanted to resist, what could it do?

The main body of the Holy Tree was in his hands, and if it lingered outside for too long, its true spirit would gradually fade away.

So it really had no choice.

Xu Yi felt he was only half a meter away from Bastet, and he reached out, trying to touch the other's forehead with his fingertip.

In reality, he was a good seven or eight meters away from Bastet, but as he reached out, a large mass of shadow transformed into tentacles, stretching towards Bastet and landing on the deity's forehead.

Authority morphed, Incarnation of the Evil God!

The Incarnation of the Evil God was one of the core abilities of the Thieving Evil God, and during the confrontation with Ratma, this ability had caused considerable trouble for Xu Yi.

The true form of the Evil God was that statue, and the Ratman enveloping the statue was the Incarnation of the Evil God.

If not for the misdirection of the incarnation, Xu Yi would have dealt with the adversary much sooner.

The Incarnation of the Evil God couldn't be changed lightly, so one must be cautious in choosing from the onset.

But for Xu Yi, what could be a better incarnation than the Cat Spirit Holy Tree?

Bastet emitted a pain-filled roar, its body shrouded in a faint black aura, seemingly unable to withstand this agony, and once again changed into a Fire Gui.

The serpent body of the Fire Effigy writhed, its fiery scales taking on an ink-like hue, turning black and red, and its fearsome bull head became pitch black, looking even more terrifying.

The golden flames were edged with a layer of black light, exuding a captivating might.

The corrupted Fire Gui Bastet suddenly let out a roar, charging towards the shadow and surging into Xu Yi's chest.

Xu Yi's eyes snapped open, his gaze suffused with black-gold light, identical to the Fire Gui's.

Lots of shadows retracted into his body, and Xu Yi stood for a long while before he slowly exhaled, taking his first step as a "newly christened Evil God."

The Incarnation of the Evil God was a success!

Xu Yi rushed to the spot where the Cat Spirit Holy Tree used to be and, seeing Lisa's steady breathing, released a long sigh of relief.

At that moment, the sound of breathing came from nearby; Xu Yi turned to see William slowly opening his eyes.

Xu Yi sighed, unsure whether to consider William lucky or unfortunate.

When the Black Blood Tidal Wave hit the Barrier of the Cat Spirit Holy Tree, those who were napping at the perimeter were swept away by the Black Blood, their flesh dissolved to nothing.

Bastet was not sheltering these humans; the deity simply lacked the awareness to do so.

When Ratma first awakened, its power was still weak, and it could only appear in person to beguile, leading to many sightings of Ratma and the urban legend of the sewer Ratman.

Those first beguiled by Ratma followed it into the sewers, but at that time, Ratma was so frail that many snapped out of their trance along the way.

In their flight, they inadvertently strayed into the Cat Spirit Holy Tree's domain and inhaled the fragrance of the slumber-inducing flowers, thus creating the situation now at hand.

William was among them; he should have been swept away by the tidal wave, but was saved by the Black Carp.

Unfortunately, the Black Carp was a step too late, and William was still affected by the Black Blood.

The flesh on William's left shoulder had been corroded away, revealing the white bone beneath, as blood incessantly gushed forth.

Black Blood carried a strong curse, which exorcists could resist, but for commoners like William, there was nothing to do but face their fate. His heart was too close to the source of the curse, and signs of mutation had already appeared.

Although Xu Yi had resurrected four times, he could only go back ten minutes—far from enough to save William.

"I know Hardy; if you have any last words, I can relay them to him," Xu Yi said indifferently.

The man was Hardy's brother, but to him, he was just another commoner, nothing particularly sad or grievous.

Though he coveted the shares of Ernst Company, with the man in such a state, death was but a matter of time. Even the most skilled doctor could only shake their head and depart.

"Oh, great master! I... I am willing to offer up everything, please, save me!" William, knowing his time was running out, summoned his last bit of strength and struggled to speak.

"Did you see it?" Xu Yi fixed his gaze on William, his eyes turning dangerous.

He had thought William remained unconscious and with no one else around, he felt secure enough to use the power of the Evil God's authority. He hadn't anticipated this oversight.

Should he kill him? Xu Yi frowned in contemplation. His control over the Power of the Evil God should not be exposed at this juncture.
