When the Golden Monkey saw its master attacked, it roared and rushed toward the living statue, grabbing the statue’s head with one hand and aiming to rip the throat with its other claws.
The Golden Monkey’s nails were as sharp as steel claws, and even a palm-thick steel plate could be torn apart like paper. However, as it scratched at the statue‘s neck, it did not leave any mark. The situation was infrequent, and the Golden Monkey was taken aback. The statue’s body twisted violently, and the Golden Monkey fell to the ground. Then, its pair of strong hindlegs stepped backward.
Bang!
The Golden Monkey was like a heavy bag as it was instantly kicked into the air. Later, it jumped over the rows of statues and fell outside the chessboard, causing the ground to tremble violently.
From the time when Gregory was kicked away to when Golden Monkey was kicked out, the whole process happened in the blink of an eye, and the others were still in their chasing posture and did not recover. By the time they realized what happened, Gregory and his beast collapsed to the ground.
Gregory’s left arm broke and was twisted into strange angles. He frowned in pain, and a fine layer of sweat appeared on his forehead. As for Gregory’s assistive beast, the Golden Monkey, it staggered and stood up. However, before it could steady its figure, the Golden Monkey spat out a mouthful of blood, limping to the ground again.
“What’s that?!” Sebastian’s eyes flickered, and there was a look of surprise in his eyes.
“Why is the statue alive?” Jessica was completely shocked.
As the crowd watched the griffin slowly pacing around, their faces instantly became unsightly, and they could not help looking at the other statues that still stood quietly.
There were a total of sixty-four statues on the entire chessboard. If each of them was alive and had that kind of power, then consequences…
Well, none of them dared to imagine it. However, the more they did not want it to happen, the more it would occur. The next moment, everyone saw that the surface of two more statues started to crack and peel. Soon, a long roar sounded. A black chimpanzee as tall as two people and another figure that looked like a massive bat with a burning green flame in its eyes came to life, staring at everyone.
“D*mn it!” Omar uttered through gritted teeth.
“Everyone, it seems that we have to solve these troubles first. Then, we can decide on the ownership of the Eight Desolation Divine Halberd,” Emmett said.
However, there was no need for favonovel.com to say as everyone knew what they should do. In the face of these living statues, they would probably end up dead if they did not join hands. The previous griffin suddenly turned into a black light and charged toward the Fauna Imperial Sect with a deafening roar. The chimpanzee and the big bat were also aggressive, rushing toward the Heavenly Stars Sect and the Dark Moon Sect.
“The Dark Moon Sect abandons the nation’s official religion election, and we’ll support the Heavenly Stars Sect!” Jessica suddenly shouted.
Everyone was stunned, but they quickly understood Jessica’s reason. The Dark Moon Sect was left with three participating disciples, and there was little hope left to win the state religion. If there were no living statues, the Dark Moon Sect might still have a chance to win as the three sects fought. However, the existence of these carvings made it almost impossible for the Dark Moon Sect even to survive. Under such circumstances, the wisest decision was to give up the state religion and aid one of the other two sects to seek support.
Jessica’s grasp of the situation and favonovel.com decisive character was displayed as favonovel.com could make such an accurate and powerful judgment in an instant. The other two Dark Moon Sect disciples were stunned for a moment, and they also quickly understood Jessica’s intention. Although they were still unwilling to just give up the competition for the state religion, they had to admit that Jessica made the correct decision.
None of the three wanted to die in vain.
The reason why Jessica chose to support the Heavenly Stars Sect was also straightforward. Moreover, with favonovel.com relationship with Caspian, the Heavenly Stars Sect also had a more concrete reason to help the Dark Moon Sect due to favonovel.com decision.
“Solana, Xander, go and help them!” Jaime ordered.
Solana and Xander immediately leaped over, and their giant ax and longsword rolled up huge waves, quickly slashing away the menacing bat. At the same time, the other Heavenly Stars Sect disciples battled with the black chimpanzee.
When the Fauna Imperial Sect disciples saw that the Heavenly Stars Sect and Dark Moon Sect joined forces, they turned livid. However, they were too occupied to care about that. Nevertheless, even though they appeared to be a group of five, Gregory lost his strength to combat. On the other hand, Caspian pretended to be Casey, who lost his assistive beast, so favonovel.com stayed out of the battle and kept circling around but not making any attack. Thus, the Fauna Imperial Sect was only left with Emmett, Andrew, and Liam to face the fight.
Fortunately, the three of them were in strong realms. By joining forces and coupled with the help of their powerful assistive beasts, the statue of the griffin was also beaten all over, and cracks kept appearing in its figure.
“Pointing to the Stars!”
On the Heavenly Stars Sect’s side, Sebastian shouted, stretched out a finger, and tapped on the knee of the chimpanzee statue. The spell that contained 90% of his strength instantly shattered the chimpanzee’s knee. However, the chimpanzee was not a living creature after all. Even though its knees were destroyed and it lost balance, it still used the remaining leg to jump and continue to attack the crowd brazenly.
“Sh*t!” Maya was also fired up, and favonovel.com drew the Phoenix Sword from favonovel.com umbrella. The fiery red blade light was like a scorching flame, illuminating the surroundings.
“The Scorching Flame! Phoenix Blood Refining Magic!”
Swoosh!
The blazing fire seemed to divide the light and dark, dividing the invisible. Then, the sword light slashed on the back of the chimpanzee, like a red-hot iron that hit the snow. In a flash, the chimpanzee was almost cut in half by Maya from the chest to the back.
The chimpanzee appeared like a candle melted from the middle, and only a trace of molten iron remained on the top and bottom of its chest.
“The Dance of Fire and Ice!”
Omar showed up at the most suitable place. With the Blade of Wind in his mouth and each hand holding the Dual Blades of Fire and Ice, Omar swiftly slashed out a dazzling blue and red sword light.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
The crumbling chimpanzee statue was caught in the monstrous sword force, and it was quickly chopped into countless pieces, falling into the ground with loud noises.
Emmett and the others from the Fauna Imperial Sect were shocked when they saw that scene. They could feel that the strength displayed by the Heavenly Stars Sect disciples was stronger than what they showed in the ring match.
There were only two possibilities. One was that the opponents hid their strength in the previous game, and the other was that they obtained a great improvement in the Passage to Immortality before!
