Infernal Artist

Broken bridge outside the post.

The wind blows and the flowers fall.

A woman stood by the broken bridge, raising a large black flag and fluttering it in the wind.

Ripples emitted from the flag, as if some ability had been activated.

A moment.

The ripples dispersed.

The big flag also folded up, no longer unfurling despite the wind.

The woman's eyes were filled with regret, and she said to herself: "The power of racial change is so strong, and now I want to change it back, but there is no way at all."

There are petals of flowers floating in the wind.

The woman shook her head and walked back to the inn.

——This is a place only for officials. Among the people traveling from south to north, only people with official status dare to rest here.

The woman walked straight into the inn, found a seat at random and sat down, and said:

"liquor."

Several post officials looked at it briefly and did not dare to say anything more. They even had a little flattering smile on their faces.

"Please wait."

"We have some good dishes here, do you want to try them?"

"Fairy, please drink a cup of hot tea first."

They greeted him and said enthusiastically.

——This looks like a cultivator. If you don’t want to die, just try to please him.

The woman picked up the tea cup and took a sip, feeling slightly satisfied.

"Hurry up and bring the food and wine. No need to wait."

She slapped a piece of gold on the table.

The post officials' eyes lit up, they took the gold, nodded and bowed and went down.

The woman sat there with her eyes closed, contemplating the road ahead.

The only solution now is to practice.

I know all the knowledge on the side, and as long as I continue to practice, I will reach the top of the cultivation side sooner or later.

When the time comes, we must immediately begin to integrate the world and transform into a world-like life form.

Once you have a certain level of strength, you can try to transform into a nightmare.

The nightmare is the seed of pollution that he sowed back then. It contains a little bit of original power. If it returns to himself, it can help him mobilize the banner again and change the race again.

She thought slowly, and suddenly there was a commotion outside.

The woman still closed her eyes and used her spiritual mind to sweep away.

I saw a group of thieves coming outside, chasing down the merchants along the way, and some of them even rushed directly towards the inn.

There was a loud noise.

The door of the inn was broken open, and the robbers shouted, rushing in and killing everyone they saw.

The woman held the teacup and drank slowly.

A post officer ran to her in panic, knelt down and shouted: "Fairy, help me!"

Another post officer came over and knelt down, kowtowing repeatedly: "Help! Fairy, please save our lives!"

The woman looked indifferent and didn't even open her eyes. She said in a manly voice: "Civilization will end in the end. What can be saved from the birth and death of ants?"

Swish——

The post officer's head was chopped off by a big man.

The big man waved his long knife again and killed the second post officer. Then he raised his head slightly and turned his bell-like eyes to fall on the woman.

"There is such a beauty."

The big man's expression changed, and he suddenly sensed the aura on the other party's body. His expression changed, and he quickly knelt down and said, "Young man has seen an immortal."

The woman said indifferently: "Get out."

"Yes." The big man stepped back and gestured desperately to the others.

The group of robbers looked over one after another, and were immediately shocked by the woman's appearance, and then sensed the faint fluctuation on her body.

Everyone calmed down and carefully exited the inn.

On the road outside, their accomplices were still killing people and selling goods.

suddenly.

A woman ran in panic with her child in her arms and shouted from a distance toward the inn: "Help!"

——She didn’t know that all the officers and soldiers here had been killed long ago.

Behind her, a big man on horseback said with a long smile: "Catch this bitch, go back and be happy!"

Several shirtless bandits shouted excitedly and urged their horses towards the woman.

The woman ignored it and stumbled towards the inn, her face full of tears, and she shouted in a hoarse voice: "Someone come and save my child!"

Behind her, a horse came whistling, and the man immediately drew out his machete, waved his hand and stabbed it into her arms, trying to pick up the baby on the knife.

In the inn.

The woman still had her eyes closed, her face expressionless, and motionless.

The tea cup in her hand suddenly broke into pieces, and the warm and fragrant tea dripped down the green hands and fell on the table.

An invisible sword energy rippled from her body, passed through the earthen wall of the inn, and circled silently outside.

Dozens of screams sounded.

Then there was the sound of a body falling from a horse.

The woman, already desperate, discovered that her pursuers were all dead.

Immediately afterwards, a fairy who looked like she came out of a picture appeared in front of her.

The woman reacted and quickly knelt on the ground, kowtowed and said, "Thank you, fairy, for saving my life and my son's."

She knelt for a while, but the other party didn't respond.

The woman felt strange and couldn't help but look up.

The fairy looked at the baby in her arms with a strange expression.

"Why...why do you protect him more than yourself?" the woman asked.

The woman was a little confused, hugged the baby in her arms tightly and said, "He is my son."

The woman was silent for a while.

At this time, the survivors all around gathered around, kneeling on the ground and kowtowing.

The woman shook her head, suddenly her body swayed, she flew into the sky, and flew away like a stream of light, disappearing without a trace.

In front of the inn, people shouted in unison:

"Thank you fairy for saving my life."

"A great kindness will never be forgotten."

"Thank you fairy for saving my family's lives!"

"Immortal..."

"...reborn parents."

"..."

These sounds soon cease to be heard.

The woman flew with all her strength and soon arrived at a lonely and steep mountain peak.

She landed on the top of the mountain, found a fruit tree, and sat in meditation under the tree with her legs crossed.

The storm is coming.

The woman did not use spiritual light to protect her body.

The rain became heavier and heavier.

The woman sat cross-legged in the rain, quietly listening to the movement of thunder, and the expression on her face gradually became uncontrollable.

On the lonely peak.

Bitter wind and cold rain.

Suddenly, a painful sound sounded intermittently in the pouring night rain.

"I am..."

"The one who ends all things and all living beings..."

"Why... take action..."

"Why! Why!"

An uncontrollable cry pierced through the clouds and echoed in the vast sky and earth for a long time.

…

the other side.

A card flew up from the prisoner's body and landed back in the card book.

Ms. Mystery.

"Regained some strength... Now you can borrow my power to revive it." She smiled at Liu Ping.

Liu Ping was still pondering.

"What are you thinking about?" Ms. Mystery asked.

"It was clearly included in my card book before, so why can it still resist?" Liu Ping asked in confusion.

"Because it is a prisoner, it has its own means to temporarily escape the control of the card owner." Ms. Mystery said.

"I see." Liu Ping thought.

"I want to remind you that everyone who can be imprisoned in Purgatory and the Pillar of Eternal Night is not simple, and you must not underestimate them." Ms. Mystery said.

"So I'm hesitant." Liu Ping said.

"Hesitate? Why are you hesitating?" Ms. Mystery asked.

Liu Ping waved to Andrea.

"Have your anger subsided?" he asked.

"It has disappeared a long time ago. If you want to resurrect it, then resurrect it." Andrea smiled sweetly.

She tossed it casually, and the prisoner's soul immediately flew up and landed in Liu Ping's hands again.

"Ms. Mystery, according to the 'Trio of Death of the World', I have now obtained all its body and soul. Now as long as it is resurrected, it will be loyal to me, is that right?" Liu Ping asked.

"Yes, this is the method left by the terrifying existence that set up the imprisonment in the first place." Ms. Mystery said.

Liu Ping looked at the prisoner's soul in his hand.

"Spare me once and resurrect me. I will definitely serve you." Soul said tremblingly.

"I have spared you several times, but your performance has disappointed me so much," Liu Ping shook his head and said, "Besides - do I really need your service?"

He glanced at Ms. Mystery.

Ms. Mystery understood, nodded and said: "I have sucked all the power of its laws away."

"Very good, then it has one last function left." Liu Ping said.

He held the soul, opened his mouth and blew gently.

——Jiuyou·Soul-Destroying Wind!

"No!"

The prisoner's soul let out a scream and turned into complete nothingness in the wind.

At the same time, the blood-red card book shook suddenly, exuding a majestic momentum.

Lines of burning small characters appeared quickly:

"As a demon, you end a powerful prisoner, and your strength will increase."

"After an hour, the increase in strength ends."

"also."

"You collected the soul of a prisoner for the Sea of ​​Blood."

Liu Ping nodded silently.

According to the knowledge on the Blood Sea side, 'killing' means 'collecting'.

Perhaps these disintegrated souls are the nourishment and energy of the blood sea.

Another line of burning small characters quickly emerged:

"Prisoners are the strongest group of monsters. Ordinarily you can't defeat them, but it's a pity that they chose the wrong way to fight."

"This count has been significantly improved."

"The current number of collected monsters is:"

"300."

"——You can summon more powerful blood sea heroic spirits."

Collect all the fine print.

The cards gathered by the prisoners turned into fragments and fell to the ground.

"You completely killed a prisoner. I thought you would take it as a mount - it is very fast." Ms. Mystery said with emotion.

Liu Ping shook his head and said, "I gave it a chance just now, but it missed it."

Andrea interjected: "Is it worth killing it?"

"Ms. Mystery has restored her strength, and I can also summon stronger heroic spirits from the sea of ​​blood. It can be said that it is indeed worth it." Liu Ping said.

"Then what if we meet other prisoners in the future? Do we have to kill them too?" Andrea hesitated.

"Kill all those who are not trustworthy - we cannot leave our backs to these evil guys." Liu Pingwen said softly.

He walked to a rock with his hands behind his hands, sat down, and began to rest.

"Aren't you on your way now?" asked the mysterious lady.

"No, I'm going to wait a moment - when I regain some strength, we'll set off."

Liu Ping said.

In the void in front of him, lines of small burning characters were quickly emerging:

"This sequence has been connected to the Four Sacred Pillars."

"The current rotation technique is: Earth."

"The art of the earth world: Earth Binding, has been released."

"An hour later, the Four Holy Pillars will rotate again, and you will gain the new power of the Four Holy Pillars."

After Liu Ping finished reading, he closed his eyes and began to rest.
