631 Sculpture and Mutation, It’s You? (2)

As soon as he entered, Li Hao saw the display of the shop. It was messy and did not look like a place to sell things.

On the rows of shelves were some wood carvings that had already been carved. Those wood carvings basically looked like some demon beasts. They were simply lifelike.

However, the moment Li Hao saw these wooden carvings, his heart skipped a beat.

These wooden carvings were filled with spirituality. The moment he looked at them, a faint pressure came from them. The wooden carvings of these demon beasts seemed to have come to life and turned into invisible ferocious beasts. They opened their bloody mouths and wanted to bite Li Hao.

Li Hao was shocked, and his eyes lit up.

In the next moment, the phantoms of the ferocious beasts dissipated. It was as if nothing had happened.

Li Hao remained where he was, his heart wavering. These wooden carvings were like Dharma artifacts.

Behind Li Hao, Lei Ao was also extremely shocked. Cold sweat flowed down his forehead.

How terrifying!

Damn, the shop was so scary. Fortunately, Li Hao was in front of him.

At this moment, Li Hao slowly looked at the front again. At the furthest end of the shop was a table. Behind the table sat an old man in a gray robe. This old man was still wearing glasses and gloves. He held a carving knife in one hand and a dark black piece of wood in the other.

The old man looked to be in his sixties or seventies. He had his head lowered and was carving seriously, as if he was immersed in his world. Even when Li Hao and the other man walked in, he did not stop carving.

As the old man’s carving knife kept falling, the wood in his hand slowly changed its appearance. Li Hao and the other man saw the wooden carving in his hand clearly. It looked like a tiger with wings.

“That’s… the Flying Heavenly Demon Tiger?”

At this moment, looking at the demon beast carved in the old man’s hand, Lei Ao, who was standing beside Li Hao, could not help but say in a low voice. He recognized the demon beast carved by the old man. It was a Flying Heavenly Demon Tiger.

Li Hao did not say anything. Instead, he watched the old man carve. This old man’s carving skills had reached perfection. Every trace of carving was so smooth.

Li Hao did not see any cultivation fluctuations from the old man, but he still felt an invisible pressure. The old man in front of him was definitely not an ordinary person.

Moreover, Li Hao realized that the patterns carved by the old man on the wooden statue were connected runes. It was as if he was carving arrays on the wooden statue.

Li Hao was shocked again. This old man in front of him was very extraordinary. Not only could he not see through his cultivation, but he was also a powerful array master.

Li Hao was also an array master. He could tell at a glance the exquisiteness of the array formation carved by the old man. The rune was also very special. Li Hao looked at the old man’s carving and was momentarily entranced.

The two of them watched the old man carve in silence, fully focused.

The two of them focused. Their eyes seemed to be an endless abyss that devoured their mental strength. In their eyes, the scenery of the entire world seemed to have changed. They only saw the other party’s carving knife circulating and sinking.

As time passed, their minds were rapidly consumed.

Li Hao was better, but Lei Ao’s eyes were red and sweat was dripping down his face.

Only ten minutes passed.

“Ah!”

Lei Ao suddenly woke up. His mind collapsed at this moment and he finally could not take it anymore. He collapsed to the ground, as if his energy had been drained.

At this moment, Lei Ao’s eyes were filled with extreme shock. It was as if he had walked through the gates of hell. This was too terrifying. It was as if there was a magical power in the other party’s body that made his mental power fall into it and he could not extricate himself. If not for the fact that the other party did not have any killing intent, he would probably be dead now.

Turning around, Lei Ao saw that Li Hao was immersed in the other party’s carving and did not move at all.

At this moment, Li Hao seemed to have fallen into the other party’s world. All he could see was the trajectory of the carving knife in the other party’s hand. The runes were really strange. With every stroke, Li Hao remembered them deeply in his heart. Moreover, the runes the other party inscribed seemed to have a magical power that caused the Demon God Technique in Li Hao’s body to circulate involuntarily…

At this moment, the old man also discovered this scene and was surprised. There was actually someone who could withstand his mental strength. When he was carving, it was also when his mental strength was released. He had been here for many years and had been carving for many years, but no one had ever been able to last so long under his mental strength. Moreover, the runes he carved were strange runes he had obtained from an underground ruin many years ago. For so many years, he had been prying into the mysteries of this rune. This rune seemed to be the rune of the demon race. Only when he carved the demon beast statue could it reveal some strange power.

A strange feeling arose in the old man’s heart, but he did not stop what he was doing. Instead, he sped up.

He wanted to see how long the other party could last.

Hence, another ten minutes later, the old man’s carving was already at the end and had reached a very critical point. It was about to be completed.

A lifelike wooden statue of the Flying Heavenly Demon Tiger appeared in front of Li Hao, but it was still lacking some spirituality.

After doing all this, the old man’s forehead was covered in sweat. Clearly, the entire carving process was not simple. He had consumed a lot of mental energy.

Next, it was the most critical moment… Living being, let this wooden statue have spirituality and let his will land on it to become a Dharma artifact.

In the next moment, an invisible force appeared in the old man’s body. The old man focused his mind and pointed at the head of the wooden statue.

However, just as the old man’s finger landed on the wooden statue, a change occurred.

Ahead, powerful demonic auras appeared.

This demonic aura actually erupted from the originally carved demon beast statues.

At this moment, the statues seemed to come to life and transformed into extremely ferocious demons. They condensed into huge phantoms that emitted monstrous demonic might, as if they were welcoming their god.

Bang.

Pfft.

At this moment, the old man immediately spat out blood.

His eyes were filled with shock as he watched this scene.

“How did this happen? How did this happen?” said the old man involuntarily. At this critical moment, he actually suffered a backlash. Even the statue of the Sky Demon Tiger in his hand exploded.

It was almost the last step, but it was all for naught.

This was something the old man had not expected. Wasn’t he fine? How could this be? Why would his already carved statues suddenly move?

The old man’s expression turned ugly. His gaze landed on Li Hao. To be precise, he felt a demonic aura from this guy.

How could there be demonic energy on a human cultivator? Moreover, this guy in front of him was actually unaffected by his carving from beginning to end. Could it be this guy’s doing?

“It was you?” The old man looked at Li Hao and said sternly. His eyes were cold, as if he wanted to kill someone.
