Chapter 26: The Mourning Gate
There was a little light in the night, and then it burst open. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
The raging black water flames swept directly across the platform where the two of them were, and used it as the origin point to spread outward.
On the top floor of the building, Lu Yu's burst body turned into black karmic fire.
Like someone lighting a large torch on the top of the building, the flames of the black water attracted the attention of everyone in the city.
The demons in the city, including the twelve silver-armored guards who were originally guarding the Light Gate, all set their sights on this place.
"Karmic fire?" At the beginning of the conversation with Lu Yu, the silver-armored demon wondered.
"It's karmic fire"
"How many years has this thing not been in the city, three hundred years or five hundred years?"
"Who knows......"
"I didn't expect that kid to hide such a hand, no wonder he has the confidence to stay near this mourning gate, it turns out that he has karma and fire powers"
"But since he is pregnant with karmic fire, how did he run into our city? What did the guards in charge of the inspection think? ”
"Who knows, maybe this kid was brought in by some big person, or maybe he was just missed for a while"
"It's none of our business...."
"No, the new issue of the Ten Thousand Demon List has not yet been released...."
"And how did he get into the city?"
"It's all said that it was brought in by a big man......"
The words between the Silverguards had ceased since then, and there were topics that they could not talk about.
In the demonic city, karmic fire is a forbidden supernatural power.
Because most of the people who have cultivated this method are humans, and they have a restraining effect on these demons who are supposed to be corrupt, karmic fire is very rare in this city, and the final result of those who cast spells in the city is also expelled from the city, or exiled to the main plane, or directly thrown into the endless void...... Nothing will end well.
This is what the big demon in the city does not want......
The black water flame on the platform was still burning, and it seemed that there was an inexplicable force acting as the nutrient for the flame to burn so that it would not be extinguished.
And this burn is the time that burned all night.
It wasn't until the morning star rose and the original majestic voice sounded again, and began to recall the ghouls and ghosts who were nostalgic in Chengzhong, that the karmic fire was finally extinguished under the power of the frozen heart.
However, at this time, the floor where Lu Yu was originally hiding had been burned "spotlessly" by karmic fire, and the big demons in it were all brought back to the mourning gate by those ghosts who haunted the night, except for those who were burned by the karmic fire.
"I don't want to die!"
"Let me go, let me go, I still have three hundred years to live..."
The big demons who were brought to the door of death by the ghosts kept struggling and crying, as if being taken away by these ghosts was the most terrible thing in the world, and some of the big demons even wanted to use the method of extinction in the city to resist, but the final result was that the white light in the body was directly sucked dry by the nearby ghosts, turning into one walking corpse after another.
Became like a ghoul coming out of the door......
When the first rays of sunlight fell on the white jade city, the demons in the square had already been subsumed into the light gate.
The sun appeared, and the demons on this street seemed to have received some kind of signal, and they walked out of their homes in a swarm, exercising their daily routine, seemingly unaware of the tragedy that happened yesterday, even if their usual friends were taken away, they did not show sadness.
It's just that no one dares to approach the white jade floor that is as white as dust, which means that the demons in the city are not ignorant of what happened last night.
A warm breeze blew under the sun, and on the platform on the top floor of the white jade building, an illusory and transparent hand poked out of a pile of jade-like things.
His arms were white, and he didn't wear any clothes on his body.
"I... Didn't you die? ”
Lu Yu's voice sounded above the platform, looking a little weak, and even more ignorant.
What karmic fire is, he knows.
The black flame will burn all the sins of the world, and anyone who is tainted with sin will be the object of his incineration.
Lu Yu didn't think he had no sins, after all, he had killed too many people and demons.
He's not a good guy.
But why didn't he die?
Coming out of the pile of jade powder, looking at his soul body that had shrunk in a circle and became crystal clear under the sun, Lu Yu didn't know what was going on.
He only knew that last night he suddenly had a karmic fire burning in his body, and he wanted to pull the ghost who broke out of the light gate to die with him, but he didn't know what happened after the karmic fire burned.
This feeling of the unknown is really bad.
It even brought some fear to Lu Yu's heart.
Unknown, always scary.
But it's good to be alive......
......
Walking down from the top floor, this street is still as bustling as ever, with the cries of various demons and the sound of chatting with other demons.
Lu Yu found that none of them talked about what happened last night.
It seems that those demons who died did not leave any trace in their hearts.
"Is it used to it, or is it hidden too well for me to notice?"
Standing on the side of the street, Lu Yu looked at all this in front of him.
"Hey, you're not dead."
A greeting voice came from behind Lu Yu, and Lu Yu turned his head to see the young lady in Tsing Yi waving at him yesterday.
Lu Yu smiled at her.
"Why, do I have to die?"
"Uh... Well, I'm just surprised, didn't those monsters that came out of the night eat you? ”
Hearing Lu Yu say this, the woman in Tsing Yi looked a little embarrassed.
"Well, I saw those ghosts, but unfortunately they didn't eat me, but I scared them away"
Lu Yu winked at her and told the truth of the matter in a joking tone.
"Scared away by you? No kidding! ”
When the woman in Tsing Yi heard Lu Yu say this, she couldn't help but widen her eyes: "You must know that those monsters are big demons who have been withdrawn from the front line, they are all dead souls who have been withdrawn from the battlefield of the battle with the immortal clan, they are all existences that have made great achievements and died in battle, and they were taken back to the city by the adults in the city from the underworld to eliminate their obsessions."
"With their strength, how could they be scared away by a little ghost demon of yours!"
Hearing the woman in Tsing Yi say this, Lu Yu's eyebrows couldn't help but pick.
"So where did you hide yesterday, tell me quickly, and the next time I come out to hang out, it's better to go and hide when it's too far from home to go back."
"Tell you, I'm still young and have thousands of years of life to enjoy, but I don't want to be dragged to the front line by those monsters to be cannon fodder"
As she spoke, the woman in Tsing Yi walked up to Lu Yu's side, staring at Lu Yu's face with big eyes and waiting for his answer.
"Big demon?"
The woman in Tsing Yi nodded.
"But they're really weak."
The woman in Tsing Yi pouted.
"The monster was really scared away by me"
Woman in Tsing Yi: "......"
