Blood Sacrifice To Millions Of Zombies, I Will Be A Demon Cultivator In The Apocalypse

Chapter 74: Haunted Hospital

Hoo hoo!

The flickering demonic flames had an extremely high temperature, but this heat was tightly contained within the cauldron. However, what spread outward was an extremely chilling aura.

Instead of raising the temperature in the refining room, it became even colder.

That icy coldness seemed capable of freezing one's soul, surging up from the depths of one's spirit, enough to make one shiver uncontrollably.

The fourth stage of the Black Fiend Technique, the Ink Spirit Fiend, had already begun to possess the ability to corrode Spirit Bodies and even divine souls.

Finally, under the burning of the demonic flames in the cauldron, the expanded Soul-Capturing Banner slowly returned to the size of a palm, but it became even more delicate and exquisite. The ghostly pattern on its surface seemed to be embroidered with golden threads, and the flickering demonic flames gradually extinguished.

Zheng Yi nodded in satisfaction and couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief. "Fortunately, I didn't waste my efforts!"

He muttered to himself and reached into the cauldron, causing the Soul-Capturing Banner to spin and easily fly into his hand.

Holding the small banner in his hand, Zheng Yi carefully observed it, looking at the relief carvings of various ghostly creatures on the banner pole, which were lifelike and made him nod involuntarily.

These carvings were not accidental, but came from the numerous ghostly soldiers within the Soul-Capturing Banner, merging with it during the refining process.

During battle, they could activate the malevolent aura within the Soul-Capturing Banner, greatly improving its quality and combat power.

As for the shadows on the banner surface, besides countless relief carvings of ghostly heads embroidered with golden threads, the central part was blood red, vividly depicting the Blood-Clothed Ghost, occupying the position of the main soul.

"This time, luck was on my side. Everything went so smoothly."

"This Law Weapon of mine has also been upgraded to the level of a High Grade Law Weapon in one go."

"The second refinement of the Three Sacrifices and Three Refinements has finally succeeded."

It had to be said that the entire refining process for Zheng Yi went smoothly, even more so than any of his previous simulated refining attempts.

Not much time was spent, but the effect was very good, leaving Zheng Yi very satisfied.

Afterwards, Zheng Yi retracted the Soul-Capturing Banner into his body, left seclusion, found Qi Lin, praised him a few words, and gave him a series of instructions for the future.

Zheng Yi returned to the Doomsday World once again.

...

Doomsday World, Luo City.

This ruined city shrouded under the eerie blood moon always seemed to be enveloped in a faint mist.

These cold auras were most suitable for the appearance of zombies and other ghostly creatures, and Zheng Yi felt that these creatures were mutating and iterating rapidly. Not only were there more types, but their numbers were also increasing rapidly.

For a long time, Zheng Yi had been suspecting that the reason this world had become like this was definitely closely related to the strange blood-colored moon that appeared in the sky.

Even the appearance of zombies was definitely not as simple as the so-called zombie virus.

In this environment, it was not difficult to find a demonic lair or a ghostly creature's nest.

Standing at the highest point of the entire area, Zheng Yi was on the rooftop of a commercial building. His gaze was like a torch, and under the gathering of spiritual energy, his naked eyes were even clearer than a high-powered telescope.

Using divination, he carefully identified the source of the Yin energy.

In the end, his gaze stopped at a certain place, and the area he was looking at was a place that resembled a slaughterhouse.

This used to be a hospital that served as a regional center. After the Blood Moon descended, due to the large number of deaths, it has become a terrifying nest where ghosts gather.

Unlike other hidden lairs or ghost nests, the ghosts here like to go out "hunting".

Once night falls and the sun disappears, when the blood-red moon rises high again and the Yin energy is at its strongest, it is the time when numerous ghosts collectively set out.

Like a night parade of a hundred ghosts, they hunt and kill any living creatures they come across.

It is an extremely dangerous area.

Zheng Yi had long heard of its reputation and observed it several times, understanding its danger, which is why he had not taken action against it.

But now that the Soul-Capturing Banner has successfully upgraded to a High Grade Law Weapon and the bottleneck in refining the Hundred Souls Banner has disappeared, he is ready to make a move.

Hoo hoo!

In the dark night, a gust of cold wind blows, and the howling chill circulates in the air.

Especially around this dilapidated hospital, strands of black qi surge, forming an even colder space.

As time passes, some ghosts begin to appear around, but their aura doesn't seem very strong, just some mischievous spirits at best.

But when it reaches the second half of the night, suddenly, the black qi thickens instantly, and in a flash, a black mist envelops this area.

Screech! Screech!

From within the black mist occasionally come eerie sounds, mixed with footsteps, the cries of babies, the sound of doors opening, and telephone ringing.

All these sounds intertwine, appearing extremely terrifying in this cold and dark environment, easily unsettling one's fragile nerves.

Just then, Zheng Yi's ears caught a piercing scream.

It was a kind of icy voice filled with death, carrying a mysterious and mind-boggling effect. If it were to enter an ordinary person's ears, even their thoughts would freeze.

Within the black mist, shadows come and go, and after a moment, the black mist disperses, revealing another scene before Zheng Yi's eyes.

It is a clean corridor, just an ordinary hospital hallway, with doctors in white coats, nurses in uniforms, and mostly patients.

Ordinary doctors and patients, nothing out of the ordinary, as long as you don't look at the faces of those patients.

But under Zheng Yi's Spirit Eye Technique, this ghostly illusion completely loses its effect. Zheng Yi can clearly see that none of these people are solid, they are all illusory existences, which means they are all vengeful spirits and ghosts.

Especially those patients, each phantom with a twisted and grimacing face, as if they had endured unimaginable pain before death, which is why they have gathered such profound resentment.

This resentment is their last breath in this world.

As long as the resentment remains, these vengeful spirits and ghosts must kill to alleviate and release the tormenting resentment.

Led by several doctor ghosts, a group of ghosts begins to move. Their bodies float in mid-air, pale faces with vacant expressions, but their eyes filled with resentment. They spread out in all directions along the wide street.

"I've waited so long, and you think you can just leave?"

"Better come willingly into my Soul-Capturing Banner, the duck that's in my mouth can't escape."

Boom!

Zheng Yi releases and converges his entire aura, the spiritual luck within him turns.

Blood surges, in an instant, a burst of hot blood energy surges forth, like turning on a bright incandescent lamp in the dark night, dazzling to the eyes.
