Chapter 198: Endless Regret
The moment he was locked by those eyes, Ji Jue in the car felt a chill down his spine and a chill all over his body.

But then, I fell into confusion... You chased me all the way, and jumped on the window like a ghost seeking revenge, and then invited me to have dinner with you?
What's the meal?

Then, he felt that something was wrong.

Everyone in the car turned around silently and looked at him, including Lou Feng who was standing next to him. Shocked, he instinctively moved a little further away with a suspicious look in his eyes:

——Are you from the same group?
Wait, could it be that you were the one who led the Japanese here?
no……

Ji Jue glared in grief and anger. I finally got into the team, how come I suddenly became a traitor?
Faced with this sudden slander, he didn't even have the time to refute it loudly before someone else couldn't wait any longer.

On the roof of the car, Ji Liu, who had been waiting for the signal for a long time, dropped from the sky the moment he received Tongshan's signal.

"——Throwing Thunder Snail!"

It was only a distance of two meters, but it was like a meteorite falling from the sky, trampling on everyone!

In an instant, he stepped on the strange figure that pounced on him. It was obviously just a stomping of his feet, but it set off a sad red frenzy that spread, causing all the surrounding scenes to be distorted instantly by the impact.

Blessing: [Sweeping Away the Clouds]!
Then, blood and fire surged, covering his right hand. He stretched forward, grabbed the figure's neck, pulled it up from the ground, and smashed it down!

The spiritual essence transformed into flames gushed out, instantly engulfing the twisted and squirming figure!

It was like a layer of gasoline was poured on it, and the blood and fire spread rapidly like a cancer attached to the bone, and everything was reduced to ashes wherever it passed.

Such astonishing fluctuations of spiritual essence, and even the terrifying destruction of all tangible objects, are not only inherited skills, but their foundation is another crucial high-level blessing of the group - [crushing with overwhelming power]!
In just a snap of the fingers, the screaming and wriggling figure disappeared without a trace, leaving only ashes floating down from Ji Liu's hands.

"what……"

Ji Liu snorted disdainfully.

But then, his face changed suddenly and he turned around abruptly.

Then, he realized that the strange doorway with the tattered curtain had appeared behind him at some point. Behind the curtain, a face exactly like the one just now appeared, with a strange smile, and a hand stretched out towards him.

To drag him behind the door.

"Come in, come in, come in, come in..."

Ji Liu's figure suddenly retreated at a very fast speed, but the doorway followed him closely. Until a roar broke out, an invisible force emerged in the air, and the terrifying pressure above the abyss descended, locking the doorway.

Tong Shan finally took action.

In Ji Liu's hand, a scimitar appeared out of thin air, and it chopped down from the top, cutting the laughing figure into two parts from top to bottom. With the help of his sister, he climbed onto the car.

The split figure actually grew rapidly in mid-air and turned into two, pouncing on him again with a sad smile.

Then, there was a sudden pause.

It was as if a nail was suddenly driven into their feet, causing the split shadows to spasm violently, and the high-pitched laughter sounded like hissing and roaring.

It was a ray of silver light.

Just as the others were about to attack, Ji Jue reacted and waved his hand, and a grain of mercury popped out from the gap in the car window. The mercury, which was infused with a large amount of spiritual essence, was ejected by the skillful hands, almost like a bullet, flying through the middle of the two afterimages, and the countless fine rays of light spread out like spider silk.

The thing that fell on Ji Liu broke instantly in the strong wind, but the few thin mercury lines that were attached to the two ghostly shadows were instantly tightened and shrunk.

Tough as a steel cable.

An invisible vortex of spiritual essence burst out from the mercury, like an invisible mouth, pulling in the afterimages and sucking the storm in!
The two ghostly shadows froze in place, their movements quick and slow, flickering violently, but what made Ji Jue frown was that the afterimages seemed to have taken root, and the gravity of solid alchemy was unable to pull them into the shackles of mercury.

Something is wrong!
Something is completely wrong!
Even though it was a rush, to be on the safe side, Ji Jue still used double the amount of mercury after estimating the volume.

According to past experience, it would be easy to deal with not only two, but even four or five of these residual spirits.

But now, it can't be pulled at all.

It's like you just bent down to pull out the weeds, but when you pulled the roots hard, you found that there is a deeper and more massive root system hidden underground.

The afterimage of the strange and crazy laughter was just an appearance. There was some huge monster hidden behind it, so that it could be reborn and destroyed at the same time, and could reappear quickly after being burned to ashes, haunting it like a ghost.

But under the shackles and pull of mercury, Tong Shan was restrained for a moment, and he decisively stepped on the accelerator and rushed out.

After just two seconds, the mercury exploded and evaporated, but the strange figure with a sad smile and entanglement could no longer find its target. No matter how hard they searched, they could not smell the breath or trace of the outsider.

On the empty street, it laughed miserably, screamed, and cried, but finally, a hand stretched out from the doorway behind the tattered curtains and waved towards it.

Amidst the wails and laughter, it was dragged into the darkness like a mad dog on a rope.

The curtains danced slightly in the wind, and finally disappeared along with the broken doorway.

Or maybe it just returns to silence, waiting for the next visitor to come.

"What on earth is that?"

In the car, Ji Jue came to his senses and wiped his sweat. In just less than ten minutes since entering Quancheng, he had already been amazed twice. The seemingly normal shadows were projections of strange things, entangled weak and residual spirits, but they could not be killed at all, and their ghosts would not disperse.

"Have you ever seen a horror movie?"

Ji Xue sighed: "Just treat it as a fierce ghost inside. Once you are entangled, you will fight to the death.

Sometimes you are lucky and find a way to control it and drive it away. But if you can't drive it away, the whole expedition will be ruined, and you may even lose people.

Have you both read the safety manual? If a stranger approaches you, don't talk to him or her, ignore him or her, and leave immediately. Your teammates should also verify their identities after you leave your sight. Who knows if someone else will impersonate you in the blink of an eye?

The second team of Chaocheng was in trouble. When they found out, there were already three more people in the team, but they couldn’t tell them apart. In the end, they had to trouble Mr. Tao to help.”

Ji Jue looked at them as if they were used to it, and felt a little cold: "Is this... a lot?"

Ji Xue was silent for a moment, looked back at him, and said softly:
"Everywhere."

When Quancheng fell decades ago, Mr. Tao acted decisively and advanced to a celestial being. Like a pillar of heaven, he supported the entire Quancheng for two hours, leaving a glimmer of hope for all the citizens.

But in addition to the survivors who escaped from Quancheng in the first two hours, there were also a large number of victims who were unable to escape due to accidents and various accidents.

They fell along with the entire Quan City, struggling to survive in the darkness. Some of them were lucky enough to be found by subsequent search and rescue teams, while others had already been completely alienated and transformed, or died long before that.

The body decays, weathers, and turns to dust, while the soul twists, breaks, or dissolves in the distortion beyond recognition.

Those countless grudges, madness, hatred and despair were scattered by the wind, and in this long period of time, they had already merged with all the unrecognizable things.

Finally, after many years, a tiny fraction of them, under the catalysis of the evil cult, became a cancer that bred evil creatures and drifted towards Yacheng...

Ji Jue was silent, sighed silently, and had nothing to say.

There was a rhythmic knocking sound coming from the roof of the car.

Tong Shan waved his hand, so Jiang Xuan stood up by holding on to the seat and climbed onto the roof, while Ji Liu fell down, her expression twitching and breathing coldly: "Oh my god, something is wrong, sister, help me take a look."

As he said this, he stuck out his butt.

"roll!"

Ji Xue was furious and was about to kick him, but then she saw a dark fingerprint on the protective suit on his buttocks...

Xu Zhao couldn't help but burst out laughing, "Da Liu, has your butt been touched? Do you want me to make you the most beautiful butt in Yacheng?"

"Get out of the way." Ji Liu rolled his eyes and gritted his teeth to take off his protective suit, only to see the clear fingerprint on his snow-white butt.

Then, no one could laugh anymore.

Evil pollution.

No, more like a mark.

If I keep it, that ghost thing might come to my door at any time.

"At this point, there is no other way." Ji Xue's expression changed, revealing a sad smile. She pulled out a dagger from her boots and ignored Ji Liu's shocked and frightened expression: "The only way is to dig it out."

"Fuck, wait a minute..."

"If you delay, something bad will happen. We can't wait any longer!" Ji Xue glared, "Don't worry, I will definitely give you a quick death. Mine is very big, so bear with it, brother."

Seeing the sharp knife repeatedly stabbing at his butt, Ji Liu became more and more terrified. Before he could stop it, Ji Xue's hand was grabbed.

Ji Jue.

"Sister Xue, don't worry. It doesn't have to be so tragic."

He pushed the dagger back, and Ji Liu immediately smiled: "Oh, Xiao Ji is still a kind person... I am awesome!!!"

Before he could even breathe a sigh of relief, he saw Ji Jue pull out a bone dagger that was even more exaggerated than the dagger he had just used, and then stabbed it into his buttocks with a simple move.

"hiss--"

The sound of people inhaling air in unison was heard.

Everyone in the car felt a phantom pain in their buttocks.

Before Ji Liu could struggle, he felt his buttocks cool, and then the original burning pain disappeared. Ji Jue drew his sword, wiped the non-existent blood stains on the blade with the mercury like tinfoil, and sheathed the sword: "Alright."

"Ok?"

Ji Liu turned his head stiffly, looking at the reflection on the phone screen, and found that the black fingerprint on his buttocks had disappeared without a trace. Not only that, there was not even a knife wound on his body. Everything that just happened seemed like an illusion.

All right!
