Running A Cemetery in North America-Chapter 414 - 285: Extraterrestrial Fiends of the South Pacific
Night, South Pacific.
Zhu Tianlin walked on the surface of the sea, gazing at the starry sky.
This place is 5100 nautical miles away from the nearest city, and a fast boat would take about 10 days to reach.
The nearest island, Bunape Island, is only a little over a thousand nautical miles away, making it an existence akin to Nemo Point.
"Due to the influence of the seal, those clansmen of mine who are still alive are now all trapped in the so-called Pocket Space, and without the right celestial phenomena, there’s no way to completely undo the seal."
Zhu Tianlin arrived at a suitable spot, his chest eye shining brightly, as if sensing something.
An invisible force plunged into the seabed, forcibly churning the seawater.
Instantly, a massive vortex appeared on the surface, and with the vortex as the center, the water surface began to rapidly descend.
The entire sky filled with dark clouds, a large amount of torrential rain and thunder appeared, casting an exceptionally gloomy atmosphere over the place.
Within the vortex, an eerie city emerged, strange noises erupting from within the city.
This incredibly vast city was entirely submerged in the seabed, colossal stone fortresses protruding from the water’s surface, and the city’s structure was akin to futuristic art, with abnormal architectural structures.
The unprecedented spatial structures and dimensional sizes gave a strong feeling of repulsion.
These buildings were constructed from enormous green stones impossible to originate from Earth, along with towering stone sculptures, grand statues, and ornate reliefs, exuding a powerful aura of impurity.
"My clansmen, I finally found you," Zhu Tianlin shouted excitedly, raising his arms.
A hum immediately echoed from the city exposed above the vortex.
Soon, a massive figure slowly squeezed out from within the colossal stone fortress.
This was a monstrous creature, vaguely humanoid in shape but with an octopus-like head adorned with numerous tentacles.
Its body appeared covered in scale-like gelatin, with gigantic clawed feet and a pair of narrow wings behind its bloated, obese body, oozing mucus.
The gigantic green body lumbered its way out of the stone fortress, like a moving mountain.
"My clansmen..."
The monster emerging from the undersea city roared at Zhu Tianlin.
"We must do something to break the seal set upon this world, allowing our clansmen to re-enter this world again."
Zhu Tianlin pointed at the sky and said, "We are the rightful masters of this world. Those short-lived ones used despicable means to drive us out, and now we must reclaim everything we once had."
"The seal set upon this world is too strong, our power alone is insufficient to break it, and with the celestial constraints, I am unable to leave this sea region. I fear I can’t assist you."
A voice emanated through the void from the giant monster.
"Do not worry, I will find a way to rescue you in the future, but in the meantime, I need your help."
"What is it?"
"Use your ability to influence the humans of this world, driving them to madness at my behest. I must gather a sufficient source of belief to implement my plan," Zhu Tianlin said.
He knew that this fellow clansman before him excelled in this particular ability.
"No problem."
The giant monster shook the tentacles on its head, and instantly an invisible mental wave spread out in all directions.
Radiating from the South Pacific across several continents.
For a moment, all around the world, anyone painting, writing, or playing music with an artistic sense.
Instantly felt their minds agile, thoughts swift, as if countless inspirations exploded forth.
Making them feel thoughts pouring in, fervently crafting the exquisite ideas that suddenly appeared within their minds.
With these ideas, they were capable of creating the best contemporary artworks.
Every artist immersed their thoughts in creation, completely unaware of how peculiar their expressions had become.
Mouths continuously mumbling, articulating a syllable that human organs could not produce.
This name is the source of inspiration in their minds.
California, a certain shabby apartment.
A White man with a middle-part hairstyle and round glasses sat at the desk, frantically composing a music score.
Elegant yet eerie piano notes were played by this person, echoing in the room.
Initially, the piano notes seemed extraordinarily light, but over time, they made one feel inexplicably irritable.
Violence, hostility, defiance, all kinds of negative human emotions would arise in front of this piano piece.
Creaaak!
Just as the White man was composing the piano piece that suddenly emerged in his mind, the room door was swung open from the outside.
A White woman entered from outside.
"Jason, what are you doing? Your piano sounds strange, making me and the kid uncomfortable," the woman said worriedly.
But the man didn’t respond to her question, the bizarre piano sound still echoing in the entire room.
The woman hurried forward to stop the man’s actions, but he seemed like a wild beast with ruffled fur.
Glaring viciously at his wife, he uttered a demonic threat: "Stay away from me, you bitch. If you interrupt my inspiration, believe me, I will shove your head up your ass, you damn fool!"
The man’s voice wasn’t his own, scaring the woman into retreating repeatedly.
At this moment, she realized that her husband was probably possessed by a demon.
If the demon stayed in her husband’s body, it might take his life.
The woman immediately turned and ran to the living room outside. In the corner of the living room, there was surprisingly an Earth Shrine placed.
"Earth God, there is a demon in my house, please help me drive it away."
The woman picked up three incense sticks and inserted them into the incense burner within the Earth Shrine, chanting as she did so.
With the deliberate push of the Evil God Council, now eighty percent of households in North America had placed Earth Shrines.
Although the church opposed this situation, religion cannot resist the power of capital.
Especially with the Evil God Council controlling both the surface and hidden aspects of North America, Earth Shrines were quickly accepted by North Americans, who also developed the habit of offering incense to the Earth Shrine in times of trouble.
After the woman finished offering incense, the statue in the Earth Shrine suddenly showed a dynamic change in expression, as if it had come to life.
"Hmm? This aura."
Through the Earth Shrine, Sun Yan’s consciousness descended upon this Land God Statue.
Upon descending, he sensed the familiar aura present in this household, belonging to an outer-space demon.
Sun Yan immediately floated out from the Earth Shrine and began searching the whole house.
He quickly found the mentally polluted man in the piano room.
In the state of the Spiritual Eye, he saw that the man was covered in tentacles.
Enveloping his soul, making him unable to control himself, causing his temperament to change drastically.
"Outer-space demon! I was looking for you."
Sun Yan shouted, his mana instantly transforming into ripples, vibrating outwards, passing through the man’s body.
Shattering the polluted spirit infected by the outer-space demon within him, the spirit power of the outer-space demon was instantly expelled from the man’s body.
Fleeing in a panic out of the house.
