American Exorcism Male God-Chapter 279: Woken Up by a Regular Attack
The Clock Bird made of red bronze suddenly let out a high-pitched cry, a soulful sound specifically directed toward the soul of Emperor Ramses.
"You’ve just awakened and are no match for the person before you. Leave immediately!"
"Are you teaching me what to do?" Emperor Ramses, upon hearing the Clock Bird’s "transmission," flew into a rage.
He, the venerable Pharaoh of the ancient Egyptian dynasty, would fear a mere mortal?
But he still retained a shred of reason and did not advance directly. He waved his Pharaoh’s scepter, striking the ground fiercely, and a burst of black fog erupted from the scepter.
"Come forth, my loyal guardian!"
The ground shook again and the Sphinx, which had been a statue, rose from the ground. It had been inanimate, but after absorbing the black mist from the scepter, its eyes became lively.
The Sphinx came to life and bounded towards Xu Yi.
Xu Yi glanced at the "toy" in front of him, completely disregarding it. He took out the Greed Sin Remains and walked straight toward the so-called Pharaoh.
Emperor Ramses’s body suddenly stiffened, and then he stared intently at the Greed Sin Remains in Xu Yi’s hands.
He should have been in eternal slumber in the Pharaoh’s Golden Coffin, but the Origin of Greed had awakened him, reviving him once more.
"Get it! Get it!"
A voice called out incessantly in the depths of his heart. Emperor Ramses was well aware that if he could merge with the Sin Remains before him, his power would undergo a substantial enhancement.
"We must leave now! After gaining strength, we will find a way to take back the Sin Remains." The Clock Bird landed next to Emperor Ramses’s ear and once again emitted a soulful sound.
Emperor Ramses ignored the Clock Bird’s words, finding the Mechanical Bird somewhat noisy.
Holding the Greed Sin Remains as if it were a dagger, Xu Yi, covered in Holy Flame, slashed from left to right.
The Sphinx shattered with a boom, stone chips flying everywhere.
Emperor Ramses’s forward lunge halted abruptly, and Xu Yi’s plain strike completely snapped him out of it.
Fear flickered in his eyes. The sensation he got from the man before him was something he had only felt in the presence of the gods.
"Move quickly! Move quickly!" The Clock Bird kept crying out.
This time, Emperor Ramses didn’t find the Clock Bird to be noisy. Instead, he felt its words were like pearls of wisdom, so he turned and fled.
Xu Yi naturally would not give up the "fat meat" that had landed in his mouth. Just as he was about to give chase, the black water of the circular pool suddenly splashed and surged towards Xu Yi.
Xu Yi sensed the tiny insects within the black water which had been awakened by Emperor Ramses.
"Khasi Insects!"
Xu Yi’s pace came to an abrupt halt. At first, he had paid no attention to these insects, as they weren’t able to obstruct him.
But upon closer observation, he discovered they were actually insects recorded in the Sun Golden Scripture.
Khasi Insects, also known as "Array Devouring Insects," could devour an Array and then store it within their bodies for some time.
These Insects were thought to be extinct; he hadn’t expected to find them here, and in such numbers.
Xu Yi hesitated for a moment, then decided to first "subdue" this group of Khasi Insects.
He had always been troubled by the "Array Transfer" of the Holy Artifact. Perhaps this group of Khasi Insects could bring him a pleasant surprise.
The most important thing was that subduing this group of Khasi Insects wouldn’t take much time.
A purple-red curtain of light rose from the Annabelle doll, enveloping the Khasi Insects.
In this desolate place, where Khasi Insects could live for hundreds of years without eating or drinking, they clearly couldn’t be normal creatures.
Xu Yi collected all the Khasi Insects into the toy space and pursued Emperor Ramses.
With his familiarity with the Pyramid, Emperor Ramses had already taken a shortcut with the Clock Bird and arrived outside the Pyramid.

They hadn’t even had a chance to catch their breath when Xu Yi’s figure followed closely behind.
"Really like a bad penny!"
Emperor Ramses could never have imagined there would come a day when he would be chased like a panicked stray dog.
He knew that if this continued, he would definitely be caught by Xu Yi. He slammed his staff into the sandy ground, with black smoke continuously pouring into it.
Terrifying roars erupted from beneath the earth, and shadowy figures crawled out of the sand, like demons returning from Hell.
The shadows’ upper bodies were human, but their lower halves were that of scorpions, with their hands transformed into pincers.
Xu Yi looked at the "scorpion-men" before him, his brow slightly furrowed.
To him, the scorpion-men were not strong, and, like the Sphinx he had encountered before, were considered "toys."
But when the number of toys increased, a qualitative change could occur.
Like a tide, the Scorpion Legion surged forward, blocking the path, and Xu Yi found himself unable to break through for a moment.
Xu Yi dared not activate "Blood for the Holy" at full force; he was always on guard for the Ring of Destruction.
The Ring of Destruction was an organization that was far too dangerous. The previous Crow Man, as well as the final "black circle," left a deep impression on him.
Thus, he had to retain enough strength to fend off any sneak attacks from the Ring of Destruction.
It is important to note that he had already used up three Resurrection Coins today, leaving only two chances, so he couldn’t help but be cautious.
Wielding the Greed Sin Remains, Xu Yi fought off thousands as if possessed by the spirit of Zhao Yun of Changshan, brutally carving a bloody path through the Scorpion Legion.
His gaze caught sight of the Mechanical Bird of the Ring of Destruction, and his heart skipped a beat, thereby hastening his attempt to breakthrough.
The Mechanical Bird’s wings suddenly fell off, fluttering in the air like withered leaves.
Complicated patterns were etched on the wings, and those patterns blossomed with a dazzling blue light, alerting Xu Yi to the presence of an intense Array aura.
Although the previous "Time Standstill" was a bluff, he was certain that the Spatial Magic Array before him was real.
As for the effect of the Spatial Magic Array, one could guess it had to do with Spatial Jumps or the like simply by thinking with their toes.
Xu Yi’s expression turned urgent, and the more anxiously he fought, the more openings he exposed, nearly having his head clipped off by the pincers of scorpion-men several times.
Emperor Ramses observed this scene, his expression subtly changing.
He fixated on the Greed Sin Remains in Xu Yi’s hand, a look of longing in his eyes. He had been ready to give up, but now, he decided to try one more time.
He let go, allowing the staff in his hand to fall. It burrowed into the sands and disappeared from view in the blink of an eye.
While Xu Yi was fully engaged in combating the scorpion-men, a golden shadow suddenly emerged from beneath the sand.
It was the golden staff of Emperor Ramses, which now transformed into a long snake, fiercely biting onto the Greed Sin Remains. Stay updated with novelbuddy
Caught off guard, Xu Yi lost his grip on the Greed Sin Remains which were snatched by the golden serpent, quickly slithering back to Emperor Ramses.
Xu Yi bellowed in rage, seemingly venting the frustration in his heart.
Emperor Ramses, seeing the Greed Sin Remains within reach, could hardly conceal his excitement.
The Spatial Magic Array was extremely intricate, and the Copper Clock Bird assured itself that Xu Yi had not yet attacked, pouring its energy into the Array, thus it did not pay much attention to the "interaction" between the two.
Had it noticed, it would have been on alert.
Was Xu Yi’s weapon so easily taken?
The staff-snake returned to Emperor Ramses, who couldn’t wait to grasp the Greed Sin Remains. He pressed it against his chest, ready to merge.
At that moment, he suddenly heard a low chuckle. The laugh came from Xu Yi, and Emperor Ramses looked up in confusion.

Why could his opponent chuckle when the Sin Remains had been taken?
