"Boom!!!"
In that instant, the cosmos spun, and mountains and rivers lost their luster.
The gray sun plunging into the void shrank to the size of an inch, twirling ceaselessly until it finally touched the brow of the naked man, merging perfectly with the gray sun mark there.
Then, the man's chest heaved.
The gradually beating heart pounded against ear drums time and again.
As the "thump-thump" sound, comparable to roaring thunder, reached their ears, the worshipping congregation went utterly insane.
They cheered the revered name "Gray Sun God" over and over, some so excited they dug their nails into wooden stakes, oblivious to pain, tears streaming down their faces, ecstatic beyond measure.
"Please return, Great God Shenyi!"
"Wake up quickly, Great God Shenyi! We wish to serve by your side, to follow unto death!"
The rising emotions, the fervent cries, spread far and wide, swiftly engulfing the deepest parts of Julu Forest.
