Infernal Artist

The high-altitude wind is mixed with an icy atmosphere.

On the earth, deep red lava leaked out of many cracks. If the deep red areas were not rivers of lava, they were burning underground fires.

The forest is full of black trees, each root standing like a forest of steel.

——This is the scene of the world of purgatory.

"There's a town there."

Liu Ping pointed to somewhere on the ground and said.

"Go and take a rest?" Li Changxue asked.

"We need to have a drink while we wait for the results." Liu Ping said.

Li Changxue knew it well.

Between Medea and the Hellfire Demon, only one can come back.

No matter who it is, they will definitely look for Liu Ping once they come back.

With their strength and power, it is actually not difficult to find someone who has not hidden their deeds on the Purgatory Pillar.

Liu Ping and Li Changxue flew into the small town.

I saw that both sides of the street were covered with bones, including those of humans, demons, and all races.

Pedestrians seem to take it for granted.

In purgatory, fighting is the eternal theme——

For all living beings inside, death follows them everywhere, and bones and bodies are like dust on the battlefield, visible everywhere.

The two walked into a bar.

"Excuse me, I want to reserve the venue."

Liu Ping slammed a bag of gold coins on the table and said to the bartender behind the bar.

"The money is enough, but your strength is not enough at all, brother."

The bartender said with a half-smile.

Liu Ping was stunned.

Booking a room can make the conversation more candid and more convenient.

It's a pity that after I came back, I temporarily restrained myself and didn't use the "special effects artist".

In purgatory, the strong are respected, and money alone is not enough.

Li Changxue stood still behind Liu Ping. The long sword in his arm took off its sheath with a "clunk" sound, passed through the window, and landed at the door of the bar.

Streams of sword energy emitted from the long sword and rushed into the sky, visible for thousands of miles.

Feeling the killing intent coming from the long sword, many powerful beings wisely stayed away from the town.

The bartender glanced at Li Changxue and then at Liu Ping.

"Together." Liu Ping puffed up his chest and said.

The bartender slammed the table and said loudly in a high-pitched voice: "Excuse me, everyone, this devil and her concubine are going to book the whole place!"

The drunkards stood up and walked outside without daring to say a word.

After a while the bar was empty.

"He is not my concubine." Li Changxue said.

"Really? She's fair and tender, and looks pretty good, but I'm not qualified to serve you?" The bartender showed a flattering smile.

A thin layer of blush appeared on Li Changxue's cold face.

"Get out of here, we'll take care of the drinking ourselves." She scolded.

"Yes, Lord Demon King!"

The bartender nodded and bowed, left the bar, and walked out of the back door.

"Don't take his words to heart." Li Changxue glanced at Liu Ping cautiously.

"Of course not." Liu Ping laughed.

He stretched out his hand, and seven or eight bottles of wine flew out from the wine cabinet, neatly arranged in front of the two of them.

Liu Ping picked a bottle, filled it for Li Changxue, and asked, "Why are you back?"

Li Changxue took the wine glass, raised his neck and drank the wine, and said seriously: "Because you saved my life, I am the swordsman in the world. I am happy to be kind and never owe anyone any favors."

"I see, you are indeed a swordsman." Liu Ping picked up the cup and drank all the wine.

"It's a pity that the monster I just met is too strong and too weird. I can't kill it no matter what I do." Li Changxue sighed.

Along with her sigh, the long sword inserted at the door of the bar began to disappear and appear again.

"Nightmare creatures are like this - I have to find a Holy Spirit so that we can defeat them." Liu Ping said.

"Let's go, let's go find the Holy Spirit." Li Changxue said.

"Don't worry, I just took a gold card. Someone should catch up soon. Let's clean up the beginning and end, and then leave immediately." Liu Ping said.

A woman suddenly appeared in front of the bar.

Yana.

She looked at Li Changxue and said, "Are you really here to repay him for saving his life?"

Liu Ping quickly filled her up with wine.

"Among us in the Six Paths, the most important thing is cause and effect. I must come." Li Changxue said.

"As expected, you are a chivalrous person in the world of spiritual practice. I offer you a toast." Yana picked up the cup and greeted Li Changxue.

Liu Ping filled Li Changxue's cup again.

The two women looked at each other, their eyes silent, and laughed together.

The moment before the atmosphere changed——

Liu Ping suddenly asked: "By the way, how is Huo Ya?"

Yana was unmoved, still looking at Li Changxue up and down, and said casually: "It has been resurrected and is still a little weak. I am training it. I will instill past memories into it later."

She placed a black whip on the table.

Li Changxue looked down at the wine glass without saying a word. The long sword outside the bar door flew back with a "clop" and also landed on the bar.

Liu Ping made a quick decision, slammed the table, and shouted loudly: "That's not right. Ordinarily, one of them, Medea or the silver-haired old man, should have returned by now!"

The two women were startled at the same time.

Various memories of the past emerged in Yana's mind, and she couldn't help but exude murderous intent.

"Sister." She whispered.

"I'm here." Maria appeared quietly.

Liu Ping quickly poured her a glass of wine and handed it over with both hands.

"If it is Medea who comes back, we have to settle the score with her." Yana said.

"I have the same idea as you."

Maria took the wine glass, finished speaking through gritted teeth, and drank the wine in one gulp.

Li Changxue thought of all the dangers just now and was worried about Liu Ping's safety for a moment. He held his chin and said thoughtfully: "Actually, the stronger one is the silver-haired old man. I can feel that he is harder to kill than that other mistress - I'm afraid it will be a tough battle soon." ."

A female voice sounded:

"Let me be on guard. If there are any changes in the space, I will know immediately."

Luo Xingchen!

Liu Ping quickly poured another glass of wine.

The bottle is empty.

He grabbed another bottle.

"Rabbit, you don't have to look for a cup. I like drinking like this."

The white wolf then appeared, took the bottle directly, bit open the cork, and poured it into his mouth.

Liu Ping sighed.

fine.

Zhao Chanyi hid in the card book and did not come out.

She is more obedient and knows that at times like this she has to take the overall situation into consideration.

As soon as he finished speaking, a slight wine burp came from the back of the wine cabinet behind the bar counter.

A female voice asked curiously: "What kind of wine is this? Why are there bubbles?"

Liu Ping touched his forehead with his hands and closed his eyes.

One breath.

Two breaths.

Three breaths.

"No! Why haven't you come yet?"

he whispered.

Tuk-tuk-tuk——

There was a knock on the door.

Everyone looked together and saw a group of men in black uniforms standing at the door of the bar.

"They are all devils." Yana whispered.

A man pushed the door open and came in, saluting: "Excuse me - who is the master's designated heir to the property?"

Everyone looked at each other.

Seeing this, the man leaned forward and said, "Who has our master's gold card in his hand?"

"Me." Liu Ping said.

Everyone winked at each other, secretly on guard, ready to take action at any time.

The man was overwhelmed by this murderous aura. He couldn't help wiping the sweat on his forehead and said reluctantly: "According to the divination ball warning from the Prison Flame Bank, our master is facing a life and death crisis. If he dies unfortunately, your Excellency, who holds the gold card, will Become one of the heirs of the property.”

Everyone was stunned.

Liu Ping asked curiously: "He can't be so cool, is he? Is it Medea who is coming back?"

Bai Lang suddenly whispered: "The Hellfire Bank is an extremely huge force. If we can obtain it, whether we are looking for Andrea or the leader, we will get super help."

"I think the same way." Yana nodded.

"Please follow me. We will take you back to the Hell Flame Family to prepare for the division of property and inheritance ceremony." The man said respectfully.

Liu Ping looked at Yana.

She was more familiar with things in purgatory than she was.

"Go - it's worth going." Yana nodded.

"But it's really strange," Maria said puzzledly, "Even Medea should have come here by now, why hasn't she come yet?"

Everyone was a little confused.

"Okay, no matter what, let's go to the Prison Flame Bank to take a look." Liu Ping agreed.

…

the other side.

Nightmare world.

underground.

A black figure fell from the sky and landed among the many tentacles.

When all the tentacles saw it, as if they had seen their master, they all knelt on the ground and did not dare to move.

"Humanity...has run away...you really shouldn't go directly to the world of purgatory out of curiosity, after all..."

"The tide hasn't risen yet."

The black shadow was talking to himself, and his attention was suddenly attracted by the corpse on the ground.

That was Medea's body.

She was stabbed in the head by the silver-haired old man with a sword, leaving only a headless body lying in a pool of cold blood.

The shadow looked at it carefully for a while, then suddenly laughed and said: "Two souls biting each other, and they are in the art of sacrifice, and they are already dead - so interesting!"

It raised its feet and paced on the ground.

All the blood and water mixed with brains, bones, skin, eyeballs, teeth, tongues, and hairs floated together and stayed motionless in mid-air.

"This situation is really rare, and it can be used to create that nightmare species."

The black shadow squatted down, kneaded and pieced together Medea's head, and put back the pieces of flesh and blood.

Soon.

All done.

The shadow looked at his masterpiece and whispered: "Wake up."

The corpse got up from the ground, glanced at the shadow, and then knelt down in front of it.

"Master, thank you for awakening us from eternal darkness."

Two voices, a man's and a woman's, sounded from the corpse's mouth at the same time.

The black shadow nodded and said: "Because your genders were different when you were alive, I gave half of my face to the male soul and the other half to the female soul. Are you satisfied?"

"Satisfied." Male and female voices sounded together.

"Master, I have something to report." The male voice said.

"explain."

"My soul has been hit by a spell. Until now, it is still working, always encouraging me to harbor hatred and want to die with the other soul in this body."

"Let me see."

A long while passed.

The black shadow suddenly laughed and said softly: "It turns out to be this strange power. Yes, since it is here, we can use it to locate its caster..."

The corpse suddenly began to tremble uncontrollably.

I heard both male and female voices expressing hatred and resentment at the same time: "Master, let me kill him!"

"This is what I made you for."

The black shadow said slowly: "Go ahead and kill the guy who used 'Encourage' and bring his soul back."

"Where are you, Master?"

"Before the tide of nightmares subsided, I was like a stranded fish, unable to exert even 10% of my power - but you are extremely rare creatures who are not bound by the tide of nightmares and can do whatever you want."

"Yes, let's go then."

"Go ahead and have some fun."

A light door opens.

Medea's body stood up from the ground and walked into the light door.

The darkness was silent again.

Only the figure's muttering sounded again:

"Before the tide really comes, you have to have a little fun..."
