"You... came..."
A howl escaped his lips, intermingled with a whisper.
I gave a start, was the spirit of retribution addressing me?
"Blood..." a weak syllable escaped.
Following that, the floating and approaching symbol suddenly imprinted!
Throughout this process of perception, I was right in the eyes of the spirit of retribution.
The process of the symbol imprinting down, constantly magnifying!
As if imprinted on my face!
Boom!
The spirit of retribution shattered!
I felt as though I had seen the process of him being scattered and his dispersion was like a wisp of mist.
However, it only lasted a moment before I saw darkness before my eyes.
When I opened my eyes again, what I saw before me was a monotonous room.
Old Gong looked up at me, stunned.
I was freezing, drenched in sweat through my clothes.
A faint blue light appeared on my wrist, and the Sichuan blood-vetch bracelet became incredibly hot, like a red-hot iron!
A muffled grunt escaped, and a wave of agony surged up.
The area where my wrist and the Sichuan blood-vetch bracelet touched felt as if it were being sliced open with razor blades.
The stinging pain attacked, blood surged out.
The blood that flowed out was not dripping on the ground but instantly sucked into the Sichuan blood-vetch bracelet!
A sense of weakness emerged simultaneously.
I gave a start and realized the spirit of retribution's meaning beforehand.
I sensed him, which is equivalent to establishing a certain level of connection?
It's like Wei Youming pulled away a strand of my soul, but the spirit of retribution is now absorbing my blood!
Using blood to feed ghosts is a way of cultivating ghosts.
The effect of the seal array is to constantly scatter the spirit of retribution and keep him in a state of persistent weakness.
Does the blood have the effect of supplementing the spirit of retribution?
The blood is still flowing.
It wasn't just simple weakness; I felt as if my own qi was being drained away…
Instinctively, I had a feeling that I had to take off the bracelet immediately, or I might end up as a dried corpse!
My breathing became heavy, and my eyes felt hot with bloodshotness.
I didn't touch the bracelet. Instead, I quickly took out a porcelain bottle and directly pushed the lid off, pouring it to my mouth.
One by one, the Ziyang pills dropped into my mouth.
A soothing feeling like swallowing a piece of hot tofu filled my throat with heat.
Then, a sensation of warmth emerged in my abdomen.
The burning heat filled every inch of my body, and the blood that flowed out from my wrist became even more vivid.
For a moment, the sense of weakness disappeared.
"Master... You're fierce!"
Old Gong opened his mouth wide and exclaimed!
But the burning sensation in the chest and abdomen did not last long.
I felt weakness again, and the flow of blood from my wrist slowed down...
The bracelet was still desperately pulling, as if this little bit of yang qi and blood were not enough...
I felt my cheeks become sunken, and even my skin was drying up!
Old Gong's eyes gradually filled with unease.
"He is truly starving, having been drained... He wants to eat you!"
"Put it away!"
Old Gong's words were filled with fear.
A chill ran through my heart.
However, my intuition told me that I couldn't stop now!
Stopping now would be a waste of all the effort!
Does the spirit of retribution want to eat me?!
It's just that I gave him too little, and it wasn't enough for him to handle the current situation?
Staring fiercely at my wrist, I continued to endure the pulling, letting myself bleed...
When my blood had reached a certain point, my skin turned pale and lifeless, and I had a sense of emptiness in my brain. It felt like I was about to collapse...
I quickly took out the Ba Heng Banner with my other hand!
Right by the bed, I directly used the Ba Heng Banner to seal off my body and the surrounding area!
The Ba Heng Banner seals off one's breath!
The bracelet's connection with the spirit of retribution through my perception had not been interrupted!
I am gambling!
The sense of emptiness became stronger.
There's nothing left to drain from my body...
My consciousness and senses were on the brink of collapse.
A dark mist oozed from the area where my wrist was located, rushing madly into the bracelet.
That dark mist also directly entered my body, a bone-chilling cold, as if I were in the depths of winter.
And immediately, I felt abundant!
As if the qi that was previously sucked away had been replenished in an instant, all weakness disappeared into thin air.
The Sichuan blood-vetch bracelet instantly became deep and serene, no longer pulling.
The black mist also stopped abruptly.
This happened too quickly!
I reacted quickly as well, sweeping the Ba Heng Banners with a quick movement, gathering them up and placing them close to my body.
Boom!
It seemed as though the ground was trembling!
Even the beams were shaking off a lot of dust...
"Hiss!" Old Gong took a deep breath.
Noisy footsteps and startled shouts could be heard from outside.
I leaped up suddenly.
Although the sense of emptiness disappeared, my head still felt light and I almost stumbled to the ground.
After stabilizing my body, I quickly walked to the door.
Unlocking and pushing the door open.
By my side, Huā Qí also ran out, looking confused and worried.
In the martial arts arena, there were at least thirty or forty green-robed Daoist priests looking confused and anxious, gazing towards a certain direction.
Zhang Xu stood at the front of the crowd, looking more startled and shocked.
I turned my head and looked in the direction they were looking.
They were looking at the direction of the side hall, weren't they!
A thick cloud of green smoke was rising from a certain area of the side hall.
The night was pitch black, but the green smoke seemed to cover everything in an instant!
"Seal Array has been breached! Great trouble ahead! Quickly follow me to reinforce the formation!"
Zhang Xu didn't have time to pay attention to me, let alone look at me. He raced towards the direction of the side hall without even glancing back!
Those green-robed Daoist priests were in a hurry, and no one was left behind!
In an instant, the martial arts arena of the front hall was empty.
Huā Qí was still full of unease. She looked at me and asked carefully, "Brother-in-law... Is something wrong? It seems like a ghost has come out!"
I didn't respond, just stared intently in the direction they were looking.
At this moment, the area of my wrist where the Sichuan blood-vetch bracelet was located felt cold and piercing, like the coldest ice in the depths of winter!
"This is where it is, don't go past." I forcefully exhaled a breath of turbid air and whispered the warning.
"I understand... the green-colored spirit of retribution, if one goes past, it will be dangerous..." Huā Qí bit her teeth tightly.
I didn't respond.
Old Gong's eyes were wide, and he was smirking slyly.
"Let's go back to the room. Don't look into these things, they're none of our business, or we might be misunderstood." I also called out to Huā Qí.
"Oh..." Huā Qí nodded carefully.
We all went back to our rooms, and after reaching the bed, I took off my shoes and lay down on the bed.
My hands were crossed at my lower abdomen, and one hand quietly touched the bracelet.
I closed my eyes and relaxed.
I could still hear the loud shouts in my ears, sometimes near and sometimes far.
The cold from the bracelet grew heavier, from the initial discomfort, I got used to it and found the coldness quite comfortable.
Old Gong was originally floating over the night jar, but suddenly disappeared...
It's morning...
Yes, it's morning...
The ghost will hide and disappear.
Old Gong is an entity that has taken residence in my possession, while the other ghosts will hide in the most concealed places, almost impossible to find.
