Infernal Artist

until--

Until what?

Why can't I remember what happened next?

Liu Ping closed his eyes and tried his best to recall that scene and those words.

But everything becomes blurry.

"No...I can't remember..."

Liu Ping felt a deep despair welling up in his heart——

This emotion does not belong to me now.

It comes from the past.

In the past time, despair has been with me.

until--

——Until what exactly?

A world apart.

All is forgotten.

Those things from the past life can no longer be recalled.

Liu Ping was covered in cold sweat, he felt like he couldn't breathe, and his whole body seemed to be falling continuously.

--dark.

Everything is eroded by darkness and despair, there is no way to escape, and there is no way to resist.

suddenly.

A voice seemed to have penetrated endless years and echoed in his ears again:

"Until you find me."

Liu Ping was stunned.

turn up……

you?

The voice continued:

"Without all your power, you may become a slave of the gods, or you may be exiled in the eternal night, struggling to avoid those endless monsters, and you may fall into a situation of eternal disaster at any time."

"—until you find me."

Liu Ping took a deep breath and asked silently in his heart: "Who are you?"

When he was thinking this, the picture from the past suddenly became slightly outline again.

There were heavy lights and shadows all around, and the boundless blood and light were endless, as if the scene from an extremely long time ago was reappearing.

Although I still can’t see everything clearly——

But the voice became clear, and it sounded like a female voice:

"The devils in all Purgatory are afraid that I will be born..."

Her voice sounded far and near, making people unpredictable:

"They will definitely seal my body in the deepest part of the world of eternal night, or the highest point of the world of purgatory."

"Go find me."

"——I will always wait for you to come."

The sound fell and disappeared, but it exploded in Liu Ping's mind over and over again.

I will always wait for you to come.

Waiting for you to come.

Wait for you--

He finally realized that this was the most profound memory of his previous life, and it was a scene he was unwilling to forget no matter what.

The next moment.

The memory engraved deep in the soul stopped.

All memories disappeared in an instant, and all illusions and sounds were cut off.

Dead silence.

"Liu Ping."

A voice came to my ears.

Liu Ping trembled and said subconsciously: "I'm here."

He looked around.

This is the place of exile, on the grass of the royal cemetery in the imperial capital.

Those things in the memory seemed to flash for a moment, then disappeared and never existed again.

The spirit attached to Hua Qingkong continued:

"Liu Ping, you have to speed up, otherwise once the devil escapes from the place of exile, everything will be over."

"Can all this be stopped by finding all the core cards?" Liu Ping asked subconsciously.

"Yes, once you find the core cards, you can restart the sequence world and restore the power of the prison room -"

"All the corpse bugs and devils will be locked up in the prison cells again."

Liu Ping asked: "Can they not escape again?"

The spirit said meaningfully: "No, maybe they will escape after a while, but at least we have won time."

Gain time.

Liu Ping was silent.

Yes……

Whether it's getting stronger or finding the owner of that voice, it takes time.

He turned over his hands and took out the "Coffin of Death."

Lines of burning small characters quickly appeared in the void:

"You activated 'The Bond of Destiny'."

"Card: Coffin of the Dead."

"This was once a legendary card, and all its power was used to keep the soul of the buried person immortal, and to maintain it at the moment of death."

"Bond Card: Soul Recovery Ring."

"The Coffin of the Dead and the Ring of Soul Resurrection resonate with each other. They are legendary cards that allow the deceased to retain all their strength. Under certain specific conditions, they can influence each other."

"——After something happened, the coffin returned to the cemetery. The last time it saw the ring was in the extreme northern sea of ​​the sequence world. The ring was sealed in the depths of the sea."

Liu Ping fell into thinking.

Holy Church.

The Witch's Book.

The coffin of death.

Ring of Soul Recovery.

Together these cards seem to reveal a secret.

As for the blood of the Holy Spirit...

Liu Ping took out the blood of the Holy Spirit and activated the bond of fate again.

I saw another line of burning small words emerging:

"This is the extremely pure blood of the Holy Spirit. It is a material card that has been sealed since the day it was born and has never been used."

"Bond Card: None."

Material card.

Because it is material and has never been used, is it unfettered?

"Okay, I'm going to the far north sea now -"

After Liu Ping finished speaking, he put his hand on the card book and said silently: "Summon the card."

Two cards appeared out of thin air, floating above the card book.

One is Yana.

The other one is Zhao Chanyi——

Zhao Chanyi turned into a white cat, with messy fur all over her body, her ears drooped, and her paws covering her eyes. The whole cat looked a little bad.

"What's going on?" Liu Pingqi asked.

Bang!

Yana came out of the card and stood in front of Liu Ping.

She said calmly: "The plan was very successful. It should be upgraded soon. It's just that I flew fast and it might be a little tired - let it rest. What should we do now?"

"Go to the far north sea." Liu Ping said.

Yana hugged him and said quickly: "Let's go."

"Wait a minute, the cards haven't been collected yet—"

boom!

Yana's whole body glowed with golden light, as if she was about to activate the levitation technique in the next second.

Liu Ping quickly put away all the cards and card books.

The next moment.

The golden light rushed into the sky and flew towards the extreme north.

…

ocean.

On the endless ocean.

A golden light flew from the distant sky and suddenly stopped over a certain sea.

The voice of the banshee in the forest sounded:

"I have sensed that core card, and it is here - deep in the sea."

"Really? So, we have to go to the sea to find that card." Yana said.

Liu Ping frowned slightly and said, "Madam, I remember you once told me that each sequence core card has one sealing authority."

"Yes, I took you out last time to avoid that devil." said the banshee in the forest.

"Now that I have five core cards in my hand, and your permission has been used, I can seal this sequence world four more times."

"right."

"Does it take time for them to seal this world?"

"If the situation is urgent, you can activate two core cards at the same time, and the double seal can be completed in just a moment."

"In other words, the sealing authority of two cards is used at one time."

"right."

Liu Ping's brows spread.

"What are you worried about?" Yana asked curiously.

"Although the devil went to deal with the bugs, I am always a little uneasy - do you still remember its hysterical appearance?" Liu Ping said.

"Yes, but the King of Corpse Insects has been killed by us. It is said that the power of the insect should have been weakened... I can't understand what it is afraid of." Yana said.

Liu Ping's eyes flashed and he said softly: "Let's go to the sea."

"No, you wait here." Yana said.

She loosened her arms around Liu Ping and smiled at him:

"Level 15 little knight, please don't go down there."

After saying that, Yana turned around and swooped down, disappearing into the waves.

Liu Ping had no choice but to float above the sea by himself.

His levitation technique was only level 1. The wind blew and he staggered for a long time before he regained his balance.

"Oh, actually it doesn't matter if I go down together."

Liu Ping complained.

The banshee in the forest smiled and said: "You are worried about the situation, but she is worried about you."

"It seems that besides Zhao Chanyi, I also have to upgrade as soon as possible." Liu Ping said.

He suddenly reacted.

"——By the way, Zhao Chanyi doesn't know how much experience she has left before she can level up."

The card was taken out.

Bang!

As soon as the card was taken out, a white cat couldn't wait to jump out of the card, and with lightning speed, it grabbed Liu Ping's neck, buried its head on his shoulder and let out a choking sound of "purring".

"Eh? What's wrong with you?"

Liu Ping stroked the cat's head and said in surprise.

"I have increased my experience by 90%, meow!" The white cat's eyes were red, and it looked as if he had cried.

"Improved so much? This is a good thing - your thousand calamities are about to end." Liu Ping said in surprise.

"Meow, she bullied me! She flew too fast!"

…

the other side.

A desolate and cracked plain.

The devils retreated far away.

The three-headed skeleton stood alone in the center of the plain, motionless.

It whispered in an extremely low voice:

"I am...the Demon King...no one can order me..."

There was a pause.

It was about to say something again when an insect chirped from its mouth.

"No! I am the great Demon King of Purgatory, not any insect, not a parasite on your rotting body." The skeleton said urgently.

As soon as it finished speaking, it made another involuntary chirp:

"咒——"

"No! I'm a demon——"

It paused suddenly.

For a while.

It opened its mouth, and its voice suddenly turned into some weird scream:

"——It's the Insect King, yes, I'm the Insect King."

The next second, its voice gradually became smoother, as if it had adapted to the method of making sounds.

"The corpse insects in the cemetery are all my brothers and sisters and are under my care..."

It knelt down on the ground, making regular insect chirps while looking at the demons around it.

It gasped.

A moment.

It suddenly laughed and said in a sinister and strange tone:

"All living things...are our lambs."

The three skulls rolled to the ground, struggling.

Its shape began to change.
