Twilight Boundary
Chapter 888 - 828: Halting Sin with Slaughter, Bloodstain Pond (2)
Ten families all prefer building yin houses in the underworld, because the underworld is closer to the origin of this world, and more conducive to understanding magic.
Initially, the Meng family wanted to enter the City of the Dead, but because the City of the Dead was too large for the Meng Family to consume, they could only repair a yin house within it. But the Li Family was different; they enveloped the entire Bloodstain Pond.
This led to the world's mystics, who wanted to access the Bloodstain Pond, having to go through the Li family. Even those on duty at the Bloodstain Pond must get permission from the Li family before they can enter.
Facing the sinister mansion filled with Evil Ghosts and Impermanence Shuras, Burning Blade slowly turned around and walked straight towards the Li Family estate.
His steps were heavy and bold, ignoring these wild yin souls and ghosts completely.
"Crash..."
As he stepped into the Li Family's underground mansion, it was as if he poked a hornet's nest. Instantly, the entire courtyard and residence filled with sinister ghost energies and rolling chains, accompanied by Purple Qi, rolled towards Burning Blade.
Since the Li family decided to duel, they naturally arranged things to be loose on the outside and tight within.
The maids and servants left in the mansion, regardless of how obedient and gentle they appear on the surface, are filled with sinister energies and grievances inside.
In the past, Sweet Potato gained a Human Demon General who had eaten humans in Mingzhou, treating it as treasure. But in the Li family, even a paper man maid has a fiercer aura than the Human Demon General.
But at this moment, Burning Blade took a step forward, facing the overwhelming sinister energies and evil ghosts, merely glanced coldly and said, "Get out of the way!"
Rumble! π§πβ―β―π€β―π£πβ΄πππ.ππ°π
At this instant, Hu Ma felt like he heard the sound of horses and iron riding, experiencing the vibe of a thousand troops rushing by, killing and trampling. In the depths of the yin house, there emerged a majestic and terrifying blood energy, rolling in like a vast river.
Gathered around Burning Blade, it transformed into an army-like force, waving spears, charging forward.
In an instant, they cleaned out the evil ghost servants released by the Li family, tearing through the refined mansion, crashing everything to ruins, reaching deep into the house.
Amidst the shattered remains, a blood pool emerged, brimming with withered bones.
It existed there bizarrely, its edges densely packed with endless skeletons, while inside, the pool was deep, with a bloody, rippling surface that occasionally emitted cries of despair and sobs of wailing.
Looking at it gave a strange feeling, as if the pool was small, yet infinitely large.
With peripheral vision, it seemed just a meter in circumference, easily fitting in sight.
But when looked at directly, it grew larger, as if swallowing the entire field of vision, still unable to fill it, no matter how much was put in.
Beside the pool, there were two orderly rows of tall white jade steps, human-made, where people either sat or lay on them.
At the end of the jade steps sat a middle-aged man dressed in a Yin Yang Robe with no beard, looking far away, the Great Master of Impermanence Li Family. His eyes showed some surprise as he watched the man breaking the Impermanence Yin House stride forward.
Clad in cloth, his eyes clear and indifferent, yet no obvious intent to kill on him, his walk stirred up waves in the blood pond water. Blood energy formed around him, a thousand troops escorting him.
The descendants of Zhen Sui Hu Family and another man and woman followed behind him, craning their necks to look over.
"The one to break magic isn't a descendant of Zhensui Mansion nor a fierce one listed in Li family's anger list, but someone unknown?"
The great master of Li family had a strange thought but dared not underestimate the man in black robes, as his oversized sleeves bulged as if something inside was eager to escape.
"Let him go!"
But as he considered this, Elder Mrs. Li's reminder echoed: "Since it's a duel, it needs to appear like one."
"Continuously sending small men to die is pointless. We are dueling based on dharma, allowing them to approach the Bloodstain Pond to witness their magic."
"To duel properly, rules must be followed."
"..."
Upon hearing this reminder, the Great Master of Impermanence Li Family slightly lifted his head, smiling and nodding at Hu Ma and the others, calming the restless objects within his sleeves.
"Is that the Bloodstain Pond?"
At this moment, Hu Ma also focused on the pool, his expression slightly tense.
Facing the pool, he felt an indescribable pressure, as if some extremely fierce things inside were eroding his Divine Soul just by a glance.
"In the pool are 'evils'."
Miss Red Wine beside Hu Ma explained softly: "They are crimes and evil, yet neither crime nor evil, a form of unclear karmic error in human hearts in this world. Evil follows us, debt follows life, all these are of this nature."
"No matter in this world or another, evils are the hardest to expunge."
"In this world, Lao Junmei was the first to set an 'righteous' path as Great Virtuous Master, empathizing with the people, saving them from distress."
