Chapter 19: The Blood Sacrifice
It was a large bathroom, with a luxurious bathtub in the center, filled with scarlet liquid, coming from overhead, and the shower shower was wide open, constantly pouring that liquid into the bath.
"It's blood. Shu Xiaoman said in Yang Zhen's ear.
Yang Zhen's face was solemn, and he could also see that this was a blood pool!
In the center of the pool of blood was a strange altar, with purple-black flames burning, and in the center was an object that was faintly invisible.
There are many candles on the floor of the bathroom, pasted with various cinnabar runes, linked to each other, staggered and arranged, forming a complex magic circle.
In the bathroom, Lin Lan and a woman were slowly walking around the magic circle, chanting strange spells in her mouth, and holding her hand high.
"Click!"
The thunder roared, and the silver lightning tore through the night sky, illuminating everything in the bathroom in a strange and bloody light, and the blood in the bath rose to the sky and turned into a rain of blood poured on the altar, but the flames on the altar were not extinguished, but became more and more vigorous.
"See, right?" Shu Xiaoman asked, "This is a blood sacrifice, I saw this formation in a book at home." I've been quietly staring at her these past nights, and I've been sneaking around on her all along. ”
"Hmm. ”
"It is clearly written in the book that the role of the blood sacrifice is to summon the evil spirits of the ghost realm, and this is the evidence. ”
"Summoning evil spirits...... Is it?"
Yang Zhen frowned and didn't speak, he had been trying his best to see what the thing in the middle of the altar was, but unfortunately the light was not enough, and he was always hazy and couldn't see clearly. At this time, it was a bright flash tearing the sky, and in the miserable white electric light, Yang Zhen finally found that it was a puppet, with a delicate school uniform painted on it, and the style was the school uniform attached to Xingong University!
"Sure enough!" Shu Xiaoman said in a low voice, "Did you see it? The sacrificial doll was wearing a school uniform, it was obviously you! Summoning the evil spirits of the Ghost Domain requires a gift of life, she is trying to summon evil spirits with your life, and I finally understand her motives now." ”
Yang Zhen hesitated for a moment: "But the face of that puppet ...... It doesn't look like it's me. ”
Shu Xiaoman looked at him as if he was looking at an idiot: "You think this is a photo?"
"Uh~"
"The doll is just a symbol, it doesn't matter what it looks like, as long as your birthday is engraved on it, it's you. ”
Yang Zhen was slightly stunned: "Have you seen the birthday above?"
"Isn't this obvious?" Shu Xiaoman glared back, "Who else can there be besides you?"
Yang Zhen didn't answer, his eyes locked on the puppet on the altar, and he was silent for a long time.
At this time, Lin Lan's chanting in the bathroom became more and more urgent, more and more sharp, and the candlelight on the ground suddenly flourished.
The candlelight turned red, and the air above his head cracked a slit, and a miserable white ghost hand stretched out in the middle.
In the bathroom, Lin Lan was stunned at first, and then his face was frightened:
"How are you?!"
She hurriedly ran to kick the candle, but an invisible force threw her directly against the wall, and with a heavy thud, the girl collapsed to the ground.
"Oh no!" Shu Xiaoman exclaimed in a low voice, "The blood sacrifice is out of control!"
"Out of control?" Yang Zhen was stunned.
"It's just that the spell is out of control, why don't you even know this?" Shu Xiaoman explained urgently, "The blood sacrifice is an evil technique that summons evil spirits in the ghost domain, and it is extremely difficult to control, as long as you pronounce a spell wrong, deviate a little gesture, and even the summoned evil spirit is in a bad mood today, and the spell will get out of control." If the caster is inadequate, then the spell will be devoured!"
She said, glancing into the bathroom from time to time.
At this time, the scene in the field changed again, although Lin Lan fell, the crack in the air became bigger and bigger, and then another foot stretched out from the crack, and the head was covered with iron-blue corpse spots, and then the black filament hung down from the ceiling.
Yang Zhen could see clearly, it was a woman's hair.
"Oh no! the evil spirit is coming out!" Shu Xiaoman was about to rush out as he spoke, but Yang Zhen hurriedly grabbed her:
"Wait, there's a problem here. I'm telling you, I just watched ......"
"How can I have time to listen to you slowly!"
Shu Xiaoman said as he broke free of him, and rushed to the bathroom again.
Yang Zhen was about to pull her again, but a step too late, Shu Xiaoman flashed his hand, kicked open the bathroom door with one kick, and rushed in.
※※※
The moment he rushed into the bathroom, Shu Xiaoman suddenly had a feeling, as if from reality to illusion, seeing, hearing, smelling, tasting, touching, and the five senses became ethereal.
This is a low-level defensive array, which requires at least one weight of qi refining to be able to crack it, this is because from the beginning of qi refining, each stage of improvement will be accompanied by some spells according to the different cultivation techniques, and this kind of self-contained spell is similar to passive skills.
And when Shu Xiaoman was promoted to the first level of qi refining, the ability he gained was the formation breaking technique.
This spell is capable of breaking through any low-level formation - you don't need to know how it works, you can break it with force.
Of course, for mid-to-high-level formations, the formation breaking technique will not work, you must honestly study the principle composition of the formation, and it is possible to come out of the formation.
Shu Xiaoman was a little glad that she had been promoted a few days ago, she recited the spell of the formation breaking technique, and felt that her body shook slightly, and her feet had already stepped on the ground again, and she had already come out of the formation.
In the bathroom, the evil spirit was already standing on the ground, his long hair was like silk, his white clothes were fluttering, his hands were tangled and cracked like dead bark, his hands were brown, covered with dark green corpse spots, and his sharp nails were three inches long, and they were bright red, as if they were about to drip blood at any moment.
Shu Xiaoman's pretty face sank, she was still a step slower, and she failed to plug the crack in time.
But that's okay......
"Since you're here, let's destroy you!"
A series of high-pitched notes burst out from the girl's throat, flashing with spiritual light, and thousands of subtle rays of light gathered around the girl's body from all directions, like a cicada cocoon, shining and flickering.
In a moment, the cicada cocoon shattered, and the girl broke out of the cocoon, wearing a Taoist robe, awe-inspiring like a fairy, and her long hair was scattered like the night sky.
Outside the bathroom, Yang Zhen stared blankly at the scene in front of him and muttered in a low voice:
"What the hell, still playing transformation~ Shu Xiaoman, can you be a little more disciplined? Do you think you are Sailor Moon? If you want to conjure a double ponytail, a sailor suit, I will obey you. ”
As if hearing the murmur of his companion, Shu Xiaoman shook his hand and took out two white hair bands, and tied a beautiful double ponytail at both ends of his hair.
Yang Zhen's face twitched, "I'm just talking...... Are you really here?"
Another high-pitched note lit up, and two dazzling rays of light poured out of Shu Xiaoman's body, one was a blue and white lightning beam, and the other was a silver long sword. They staggered into the female ghost's body, but there was no reaction.
Shu Xiaoman seemed to be stunned for a moment, she was already a monk who had refined qi, and this long sword was her newly acquired ability, but it was completely ineffective!
The female ghost stretched out her ghost claws and strangled at the girl's throat.
Shu Xiaoman's face changed, his body shook, and he flashed backwards. The female ghost didn't care about it, and her arm continued to extend, but Shu Xiaoman moved quickly, and in a blink of an eye, she came out of the maximum range that the opponent's arm could envelop.
Immediately afterwards, Shu Xiaoman raised his fingers sideways, stepped on the seven stars, and the runes recited in his mouth were like Sanskrit sounds.
The aura converged on the girl again, and the female ghost still ignored it, like a machine, and her claws were still insisting on approaching, but everyone could see that it was completely futile, and she couldn't catch anyone at all.
Soon, the female ghost's arm straightened, and sure enough, there were at least two steps away from Shu Xiaoman, and at this time, even if she took two steps forward, it was too late, because Shu Xiaoman's fingertips had burst out of electric light, and a new spell was ready to be launched.
But at this moment, a sudden change occurred!
The female ghost's arm suddenly lengthens in the moment it reaches its limit!
The distance of two steps crossed over, Shu Xiaoman was taken aback, and hurriedly wanted to dodge, but it was too late, the ghost claw choked her throat, and an extremely cold breath penetrated, and the blood of the girl's whole body seemed to be frozen in an instant, and her consciousness was like being shrouded in the deepest night.
The claws were released, and Shu Xiaoman slowly paused to the ground.
Outside the bathroom, Yang Zhen's pupils shrank:
"Not good!"
He hurriedly rushed to the bathroom to help, and the moment his figure stepped through the door, Yang Zhen suddenly felt that he had fallen into an endless void. Before he could figure out what was going on, black flames appeared around him, and the young man's figure was annihilated in an instant.
