The Rise of the Cemetery

Chapter 0217

Looking around, this location is located in the center of this slum area. It is an ideal place for hiding stolen goods or concealing whereabouts. Why are there no thieves or homeless patrons here?

Under Li Xun's full induction, the surrounding terrain came to mind like a three-dimensional map. Now this map has been smeared with red lines of variable thickness. Some places with frequent human activities have been rendered in a thick red, and some places with few people are only a few faint red marks. Only here is a blank, as if All human activities consciously avoid this place, ignoring its existence.

Things that are abnormal are demons.

In the next second, the Ghost Killer had already appeared in the center of the wooden house. He didn't disappear, but stood there quietly, silently waiting for his opponent to appear. The 6 ghost killers on the periphery not only did not approach here, but spread out, faintly lurking around this place as the center.

It is easy to find nothing without a target, but once the target is determined, no matter how deep the other party hides, Li Xun has the means to find out "it". The reason why "it" is used instead of "he" is because Li Xun has a vague feeling that the people he is dealing with this time may not be human beings. The other party seems to be less daring to reveal their identity than themselves, which is an advantage that can be used.

The waiting time was not long, and the other party showed up soon.

The various noises that had been looming in the distance outside disappeared in an instant, and the world was dead silent. Nothing in the wooden house has changed, but at this moment, in Li Xun's eyes, it is full of dazzling red light. Li Xun blinked, and after careful analysis, he realized that it was not red light, but blood-colored light. The source of the blood light was a pair of blood eyes that suddenly opened on the wall around him.

No other body organs were seen, it seemed that there were only such a pair of blood eyes growing on the thin wooden wall, accompanied by boundless bloody aura and terrifying coercion. But all of this is only confined within this small shabby wooden house, and will not spread out at all, as if an invisible barrier separates this place from the outside into two different worlds.

Suddenly, the dark room was shrouded in blood. The increasingly thick bloody air has thickened into slowly flowing blood. On the ground and on the four walls, it is speeding along a special track. A magic circle made up of blood and water has been formed. Continuously changing shape.

There were bursts of ominous voices from the magic circle. It seemed that someone was crying in a low voice, which turned into an indistinguishable murmur after a while, and finally turned into a terrifying hysterical hiss. The bloody magic circle changed into a special space magic circle with a complex hexagram as the main body, and complex and profound mysterious runes were added to it. The wooden floor and walls surrounded by the magic circle quickly became decayed, broken, and collapsed, revealing the black and red lava hidden behind it.

Li Xun took a deep breath. This kind of method was unheard of, and it was not within the understanding of human mages.

Those bloody eyes swiveled around and fixed on the hazy figure standing proudly in the center of the wooden house.

"Contracts, transactions, follow the ancient rules. Human, why did you come?" An ancient and vicissitudes of life echoed in this small area.

"Human? Are you reading that right? I'm an undead creature!" Ghost Killer retorted disdainfully.

"Maybe your body belongs to the undead, but what I see is your soul. You have a human soul."

"Okay, okay! Whatever you say is fine, but I came here today to look for one of my missing subordinates. Why, have you seen it? A guy who looks the same as me."

"Human, tell me your needs? Maybe I have what you need here, power, power, beauty or wealth?"

"Uh, so before I tell the secret in my heart, can I ask who you are?"

"Me? Of course I am a great abyss lord in the bottomless abyss. When you call me, remember to add a great title."

Ghost Killer's illusory body trembled, and he let out a human-like cheerful laugh: "Hahaha..., your words are so funny, Your Excellency the Great Lord of the Abyss. Do you think that I am the one who kneels before you and begs for strength?" Poor thing? Still think I'm a new mage apprentice who can't even tell if you're a devil or not?"

The temperature in the wooden house began to rise rapidly, and the black-red lava flowing on the floor and walls kept bulging out large and small bubbles, as if countless hot magma would burst out in the house in the next moment. Scorched black matter has appeared on the edge of Ghost Killer's naked and fragile body, falling straight down with the cheerful laughter, but none of this can affect Li Xun's good mood, a sense of belonging that has found the organization overflows full of heart.

"You are a very strange human being, I can hear real joy in your laughter. The Nine Hells are below, tell your true purpose, the great Harvester Bird is at your service!"

The ancient and vicissitudes of life just now have disappeared, replaced by a brisk and soft voice, this kind of voice seems to have the power of infinite temptation, people can't help but desire.

"Your Excellency Byrd, I should say that there is nothing I can do for you! After all, this is our human territory, and there are many mages here who are hostile to you. I am one of the more enlightened ones. So please allow me to ask, why are you here?"

"Soul. Of course, endless delicious souls! Do you think there is anything else in the main material world that can attract us?"

"Hehe, that's true. It seems that this city has become the best stage for you to show your strength. There are so many excellent and sweet fallen souls here. It's a pity that you hide like this. How efficient will you be in harvesting? Does it fill your wide belly?"

"I smell a deal! What, human, you want to make a deal with me?"

"Deal? No, no... I'm not in a hurry. I'm here this time to hear your offer, and then I'll listen to your competitor's offer, so I can decide which side to help!"

"Competitor? You mean..."

"Hehe, the environment here is so good, you don't think you're the only one here!"

"Humans, this city is not big. If there are people with me, do you think I won't notice? You have to know that it took me two years to take root here."

Ghost Killer sneered, and the ghostly flames flickering in his eyes gradually brightened, projecting the image of the Altar of Pain in front of him, especially leaving a big close-up at the light gate. In the swaying light and shadow, the howling and struggling human figure on the altar of pain is also clearly discernible, and even the strange atmosphere of the scene is vividly interpreted.

A ray of light shot out from the blood eyes and focused on this image. The color of the ray changed several times continuously, obviously detecting perception in its own way.

After a long time, the light was cut off, and the blood eyes were silent.

"You are strange, human. Many humans have come to me begging for power, wealth, power, including mages, but I have never seen anything like you. Tell me, what do you hope for?"

Ghost Killer's blurred face flickered with a gloomy light, staring at the bloody eyes and said leisurely: "Do you want this altar to continue to exist or disappear?"

"Of course I hope it disappears. But with your strength, do you still dare to make plans for it?"

"Haha, building an altar and summoning a low-level demon is of course none of my business, but it was built by my old enemy, so..."

"You want to destroy it? Young mage, I admit that there are some things in you that I can't see through, but I still don't think you have the ability. I'm not interested in investing with no return."

"Great Lord Byrd Devil, you don't intend to give up everything! I have eliminated a competitor for you. Could it be that you want me to fall into the embrace of that side?"

"Human Mage, the contract must be enforced, the transaction must be guaranteed. You will get nothing from me until we conclude the contract."

"You are busy here, isn't it just to get the soul. If you hide your head and cover your face like you, no matter how hard you try, you can lure so many ignorant lambs. Why don't you look at what I have to offer you!"

Ghost Killer snapped his fingers lightly, and a distant companion quickly appeared outside the wooden house. Xuemu hesitated for a moment, but still couldn't hold back his curiosity, he gently opened a small gap for the new ghost killer to squeeze in.

The new Ghost Killer took out a crystal-clear soul crystal from his blurred body, handed it to the companion controlled by Li Xun's consciousness, and retreated to the edge without any movement.

Holding the soul crystal in his hand, Li Xun said with a faint smile, "This is hard currency that you recognize, but your technology is too rough, you might as well taste our latest achievements."

Throwing the soul crystal over casually, the bloody eyes moved slightly, as if connecting to another world behind the wall he was attached to, a ferocious and terrifying claw came out gently, and pinched it with two slender and sharp nails. Live this beautiful soul crystal.

"Soul prism? No, oh my God, what a pure and sweet soul in the Nine Hells! How could there be such a pure and perfect soul in the world, even the newborn child of a cowardly human being cannot have such a pure soul. Could it be You captured a saint? No, why aren't there any memory fragments in it? You..."

"Okay, okay, don't make a fuss! Your technology in the lower realms has always been too rough, but we mages have always pursued perfection. How about it, such things can be sold at a good price with you!"
