Purgatory

Chapter 19 The Water of Corrosion
"There is true love in the world! Tsk tsk, I am really moved by the love between you two bitter mandarin ducks."

Wearing a golden mask, the dark ghost leader who never dared to show his true colors looked at Ouyang Duanhai, who looked like a fierce ghost, and waved his hands to signal his subordinates to intercept him, while not forgetting to make jokes.

Ouyang Duanhai's ugly appearance now makes him happy.

The reason why he wears a mask all the year round is not only that he is still hiding in the Seven Great Families and cannot reveal his identity for the time being, but also because his scarred face under the mask cannot be seen.

However, this wimp of the Ouyang family is recognized as a handsome man by the seven major families, and he is admired by many women.

Ouyang Duanhai and Shangguanqin, the male is tall and handsome, the female is pretty and charming, and they were regarded as a match made in heaven long ago.

Like Shangguan's family, Ouyang's family is also related to the blood moon in the upper realm. They are childhood sweethearts and have a crush on each other. When they were young, they almost made a private decision for life.

It's a pity that after the people who came under the blood moon checked their cultivation talents, everything was rewritten.

Blood Moon concluded that the two of them were not worthy of the family's spending resources to help them reborn and help them enter the realm of marrow washing.

This also means that Blood Moon will not accept them.

The two who thought they would be able to become a couple after they became adults were forcibly separated by the power of the family.

In this world where power is paramount, a man's handsome appearance is not an advantage, but a woman's beauty... can be exchanged for some resources.

Thus, Shangguanqin, who was as beautiful as a flower, was forced by her family to marry a Dong family member with high potential for cultivation.

That person is useless except for his high talent, and he is extremely ugly.

No matter how Shangguanqin wanted to die, she was eventually sent to Dong's family, the strongest in the fourth realm, by Shangguan's family, and she was just a small benefit given to that clansman by Dong's family.

A few years later, that person died while exploring a secret place, and Shangguanqin was arranged by Dong's family to be another clansman's concubine.

Her second man accidentally lost his temper and died when he entered the Marrow Cleansing Realm.

Afterwards, the Dong family regarded her as an ominous person and simply sent her back to Shangguan's house.

When she returned to her family, she was not seen by them, and some of the tasks assigned to her were often more dangerous, such as the exploration of the Cenji Mountains.

"A pair of fateful mandarin ducks."

The leader who couldn't stop retreating hinted at the subordinates he brought, let them keep Shangguanqin's life.

Knowing his intentions, the subordinates smiled meaningfully and surrounded Shangguanqin and the weird Ouyang Duanhai.

"This Ouyang Duanhai is not worth mentioning, you don't have to..."

The leader wearing a mask, Ouyang Duanhai, who sees neither human nor ghost, is very aggressive. Several subordinates are a little timid, so they want to tell them that Ouyang Duanhai is a famous showman of the seven big families.

But before he could speak clearly, he suddenly frowned, his expression changed slightly, and he fell silent.

He saw Ouyang Duanhai, with a distorted face, cast the lowest-level "blood handprint" of the bleeding moon, and the moment the blood-red handprint in his palm flew out, it turned into a blood-colored feather strangely.

The strange blood-colored feathers weighed more than [-] jun, and the bones of one of his subordinates were shot to burst.

A piece of blood-colored feather condensed with spiritual power also disappeared into the body of the subordinate, as if gnawing at the flesh and bones of the subordinate.

"Be careful, he's not the same as before."

The masked ghost leader stared at the phoenix bird totem on Ouyang Duanhai's chest with cautious eyes.

"Hoo! Hoo hoo!"

Ouyang Duanhai exerted his strength again, flapping his hands randomly in mid-air, and saw pieces of bloody feathers fly out one by one, killing all the dark ghost attackers who approached one by one.

In the blink of an eye, seven or eight dead bodies were scattered on the grass beside him.

Pieces of blood-colored feathers were evil and bloodthirsty, and they were still digging into the bones, and the flesh of the bones penetrated by the feathers was drying up at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Every body became more and more like Ouyang Duanhai, skinny as if he had lost all his flesh and blood.

At this time, the light representing spiritual wisdom in Ouyang Duanhai's eyes also dissipated little by little.

It seems that every time he uses the "Blood Handprint" and refines a piece of blood-colored feathers to devour people, his ego will be annihilated, and the demon in his heart will grow stronger.

"Little, Xiaoqin, hurry up... go away!" He growled like a trapped beast, his pupils seemed to be bleeding, "I can't last long!"

Shocked by his bloody means, Shangguanqin stared at him blankly, feeling extremely strange.

Shangguanqin, who looked a bit disheveled with tattered bright clothes, did not expect her lover, who was always timid, to have such a cruel and vicious side.

Although she and Ouyang Duanhai conspired to kill the two men in front of her, she was the one who really did it.

Ouyang Duanhai is cowardly by nature, he is an elegant and gentle man in his bones, and he loves cleanliness extremely, never daring to be stained with blood.

She couldn't imagine that one day Ouyang Duanhai would be so violent and bloodthirsty!

"quick!"

Ouyang Duanhai yelled crazily, and rushed towards the man with the golden mask, only to see pieces of blood-colored feathers flying out of the body of the dark ghost lying in a pool of blood.

The blood-colored feathers that flew out were glued to the phoenix pattern on his chest, which seemed to be part of the tattoo.

Every time a piece of blood-colored feather returns, the wisdom in Ouyang Duanhai's eyes disappears, and it seems that it will collapse soon.

Shangguanqin looked at him, and the phoenix pattern on his chest that looked like a living thing. Hearing his repeated urging screams, she finally gritted her teeth and stomped towards the distance: "Duanhai, I'll wait for you at the agreed place !"

"Chase!"

As soon as she moved, there were dark ghosts lurking in the forest trying to chase her down.

"Hoo! Hoo hoo!"

Ouyang Duanhai clapped his hands across the air, and suddenly there were new "blood handprints" transformed into feathers, killing those who dared to pursue them one by one on the spot.

Ouyang Duanhai, who had gone crazy, stood among the bones all over the ground, watched his lover go away with a pair of dark red eyes like monsters, and murmured: "It's good that you're alive. I didn’t do much for you, but being possessed by a demon this time gave me strength and courage.”

In the depths of his bloodthirsty pupils, relief gradually appeared, and he was no longer afraid of that moment.

Not far away, Han Duping wanted to take advantage of Ouyang Duanhai to show off his might, so he also fled with Shangguanqin.

But seeing the dark ghost's people dying in the blink of an eye, he didn't know Ouyang Duanhai's situation, and he was afraid that this guy would misunderstand that he was going to chase and kill Shangguan Qin, so he just stayed where he was and didn't dare to move.

"Boom!"

The ground was still shaking, and the underground crack centered on the black water pool was getting bigger and bigger.

Han Duping was very anxious at the moment, and he was afraid of foreign objects rushing out of the ground, and he didn't dare to provoke Ouyang Duanhai, who had turned into a monster who didn't know what to do, so he had to look around helplessly.

He soon discovered that almost all of the servants of the Zhou family who had been inspired by Zhou Qingchen to fight had died.

Ning Yao, who kept calling for the ghost to let go, failed to escape, and was caught in a giant net woven with silver threads.

The other dark ghost leader who was entwining her, grabbed the hemp rope with one hand, avoided the underground cracks, and dragged her on the ground with the giant net, heading towards the black water pool.

Han Duping, who was watching the surrounding scene, suddenly found that the roar of the earth seemed to stop slowly.

He paled in horror, guessing that when the vibration subsided, terror would emerge from the cracks in the ground.

"Buzz!"

Suddenly, he heard the urgent sound of swords coming from the direction of the black water pool behind him.

He hurriedly turned his head to look, and saw seven "Cicada Wing Swords" controlled by Jin Yang whizzing around the phoenix bone protruding from the water, but Pang Jian's figure was never seen.

"That boy, is he still alive?"

Han Duping was astonished.

……

underwater.

Pang Jian, who was holding his breath and blushing, could already see part of the scene around him clearly through the divine light released by the phoenix bone, and naturally he also saw the "Cicada Wing Sword" above his head.

At this moment, if he didn't raise his head to take a breath, he would be suffocated to death sooner or later.

But once he exposed his head to take a breath, he would be attacked by the "Cicada Wing Sword". He was suffering in his heart, silently waiting for the strangeness to emerge from the cracks in the ground.

He expects that the deep fissures that are centered on the black water pool will burst out with terror enough to wipe out all the dark ghosts!
However, he waited and waited, but he didn't wait for the terrifying foreign object that might appear.

Pang Jian, who regarded the black water pool in front of him and this phoenix bone as his life-saving straw, gradually felt hopeless and powerless.

"I saw you."

Jin Yang, who had been guarding the sword all the time, also saw a figure shrinking under the water beside the phoenix bone due to the shining divine light, and even supported the phoenix bone with his hand.

"Since I saw it, do you think you can continue to hide?"

Jin Yang narrowed his eyes and sneered.

A "Cicada Wing Sword" moved at will, and immediately stabbed Pang Jian's shoulder under the water. He wanted to force Pang Jian out so that he could question him carefully.

Seeing the spirit sword attacking, Pang Jian quickly moved his body underwater, trying to avoid the sword's thrust.

"puff!"

The moment the "Cicada Wing Sword" pierced into the water, it was suddenly hindered by a thousand times the buoyancy, and the stabbing momentum suddenly slowed down a thousand times.

What's more, this spirit sword, which was originally shining brightly, suddenly lost its light.

The next moment, the "Cicada Wing Sword" refined by an expert slowly sank towards the bottom of the pool like scrap iron.

Pang Jian, who couldn't avoid it at first, saw the spirit sword slipping from his left shoulder with strange and confused eyes.

He pondered for a moment, then suddenly poked his head out, breathing heavily.

Before Jinyang could react, he retreated into the black water pool and continued to hide around the phoenix bone.

"My Cicada Wing Sword!"

Jin Yang was shocked by the strangeness of the black water pool, and when he wanted to attack Pang Jian, he saw Pang Jian sinking into the water again.

He frowned, moved to the edge of the pool, and squatted down to look at the pitch black water.

When the spirit sword submerged into the pool, the spiritual power he poured into it was eroded, and the connection between him and the spirit sword was cut off instantly.

He wasn't sure whether it was caused by the pool water or the white light released from the phoenix bone, so he wanted to try it himself.

"I've checked it clearly. There's nothing strange about this dark pool except that it's cold and dark and you can't see clearly. And the phoenix bone doesn't have any mystery. It shouldn't be..."

Jin Yang, who had explored this place earlier than Pang Jian and Zhou Qingchen, muttered to himself, and suddenly stretched out his left hand by the pool, feeling the black water in the pool again.

He stretched out his left palm into the pool, and suddenly withdrew it as if his hair exploded, and his whole body broke out in a cold sweat.

His slender left hand, like a bamboo joint, just stretched and pulled like this, no longer has a little bit of flesh.

Jin Yang's left hand became a white bone, with no blood or flesh left. The flesh, tendons and blood surrounding his left hand were all corroded by the pool water in an instant.

Looking at the bones of his hand, Jin Yang bared his teeth, breathing in the cold tremblingly.

Suddenly, he looked at Pang Jian coldly.

At this moment, Pang Jian submerged his whole body under the water, still holding on to the phoenix bone.

But Pang Jian is clearly alive and well.

"Jinyang, that wimp of Ouyang's family is already heading towards you!"

The dark ghost leader wearing a golden mask suddenly yelled, he found that after Ouyang Duanhai completely lost his mind, he was no longer Ouyang Duanhai's opponent.

Ouyang Duanhai completely abandoned him, no longer remembered who Shangguanqin was, and just ran towards the black water pool.

Somewhere in the black water pool, there seems to be something that has been attracting Ouyang Duanhai, making this ghost-like guy just want to reach the black water pool as soon as possible.

The shaking of the earth has long since subsided, and no terror emerged from the depths of those cracked ground fissures.

"Intercept and kill Ouyang Duanhai!"

Dragging a huge silver wire net around Ning Yao, followed by another leader of several dark ghost attackers, fearing that Jinyang might lose, he dropped the huge net and shouted: "You guys will give me this Bring the girl here!"

The leader of the dark ghost, and the leader with the golden mask, are running towards the black water pool.

The two of them didn't see Jinyang, whose back was facing them, with a left hand that had become a white bone.

They didn't even notice that Jin Yang was staring at Pang Jian under the phoenix bone with a distorted expression.
