Dead...
"What..the.....fuc-" Hao Xuan's eyes contracted as he looked at the statues head, or where it should have been. Everything from its neck and above was shrouded in darkness. Even with Hao Xuan's improved vision, all he could see was a blob of black nothingness.
*Plop*
His knees gave out as he fell to the floor. The creature looked at Hao Xuan, tilting its head sideways in confusion. It followed his line of sight and looked up at the statues head, but with a shrill scream it quickly turned away and got in a fetal position, covering its head between its legs while letting out shrieks.
Hao Xuan couldn't control his body as his eyes opened wide and his body bent down in prostration before the statue. Beads of sweat poured down his neck one after another as he felt the statue increase in size right in front of him.
