Infernal Artist

"No one has ever killed my person in front of me, Yana." The Lord of Blood said.

"You are only willing to pay for killing people, but not for saving people. Do you have to blame me for this?" Yana chuckled.

The Blood Lord glanced at the two people and said: "Very good, you may not know yet, but everything in Purgatory has changed now. I swear, sooner or later you will know my methods."

"If you dare to come to Yongye, I'll be waiting for you." Yana said without any sign of weakness.

"We'll see!"

The Lord of Blood said a harsh word, and his blurry figure suddenly dispersed into a flying blood mist.

--he's gone.

Yana stood there to calm down, then turned to look at the clown.

"The chat was quite lively." The clown said with a smile.

"This idiot dares to take advantage of me. I don't know if he is stupid or if I really feel easy to bully." Yana said solemnly.

"Wait until I get stronger." The clown said.

Yana waved to him and said: "Speaking of becoming stronger, first give me all the cards in your hand."

"oh."

The clown handed over all the cards he had just searched from the hyena boss.

Yana collected all the cards of the dead, organs, and souls, and said: "Some people think that the more cards, the better, but this is not the case. For example, these cards are similar to your deck of 'Joy' It’s completely incompatible.”

"So?" the clown asked.

Yana muttered a spell, and the black whip in her hand suddenly turned into a snake, biting the card with three hyenas on it.

Bang!

The card suddenly turned into a burst of white mist.

Three hyenas emerged from the mist and crouched cautiously in front of the two men.

A dog said: "We——"

The second dog said: "Wrong choice——"

The third dog said: "Master."

They lowered their heads together.

"Don't do this. Those guys are dead, but I didn't see the professional card. It must be on you. Hand over the full set of hyena professional cards first." Yana said coldly.

The three dogs were dejected and placed a pile of cards in front of the clown.

There are nine cards in this pile, and each card has a hyena with a different look on it.

The clown took a look, spread out the nine cards, and saw a complete set of hyena cards appearing in front of him.

Some hyenas are responsible for testing, some are responsible for vigilance, some are responsible for attacking, some are responsible for defense, and some are responsible for harassment...

"That's funny." The clown laughed.

"This deck is quite special. You can devour them and use them to improve your career." Yana said.

The clown nodded.

In fact, he also saw that the really valuable cards in the hands of the hyena boss were this set of professional cards and the Samurai God card.

As a human-eating being, Boss Hyena's other cards really don't match him.

"Then...devour."

The clown whispered.

Lines of burning small characters quickly appeared in the void:

"According to your wishes, the hyena (career card) is being devoured by the clown (career card, rare)."

call--

The nine cards suddenly turned into blazing flames and burned up quickly.

Liu Ping took out his clown card and looked at it.

I saw that the blood on the clown card was getting richer and richer, as if it was soaked in endless blood and became extremely heavy.

The back of the entire card has some gorgeous lines and patterns, and the clown on the front seems to have undergone some indescribable changes.

"Do you really have to wait until the name appears for the card to be considered successful?" the clown asked.

Yana said: "The name of your card is Joker at the moment. After it is advanced, it may become some kind of clown with its own name, or it may directly become another completely different name——"

"Remember, the name is the name of the profession. It has infinite power of rules and can turn other cards into exclusive uses."

The clown took back his professional card and looked at the three hyenas again.

"Hello, our new master." The first hyena nodded and bowed.

The clown squatted on the ground, looked at the three hyenas and said, "Don't rush to say hello. You are full of the smell of human flesh. Did you just eat today?" the clown asked.

"Can you smell it?" the hyena asked in surprise.

"I'm more sensitive to this kind of thing. After all, I was - forget it, let's answer my question." The clown said.

"Yes, I eat it every day." said the first hyena.

"If you don't like it, we don't have to eat it in the future." The second hyena said.

"But we need the power of the soul, please feed us with the soul." The third hyena said.

The clown clapped and said, "Wow, it's so cute. Please go back to the cards for now, thank you."

Bang!

The three hyenas turned into one card again.

"What are they from?" the clown asked.

Yana said: "They are an extremely rare race in purgatory. They are born to enslave souls and like to eat living creatures."

"Will it be useful to us?" the clown asked.

"——They are servant gods, and they are your slaves. You can order them to be your three guard dogs." Yana said.

The clown pouted.

Yana looked at the reluctant expression on his face and said: "Well, if you don't want such a guard, you can also use it to increase your strength - the card master has increased your strength, so as the God of Attendance, I can also Will become stronger."

"Understood."

The clown stared at the card with a thought in his mind.

Devour!

The entire card suddenly cracked like shattered glass, and the wails of three hyenas could be faintly heard.

Their phantoms appeared in mid-air, and they roared in unison: "Joker, I curse you, you will definitely die in the next card master war!"

The clown sighed and said: "I'm just eating breakfast - just like you eat human flesh and souls, please calm down."

The three phantoms could no longer maintain their form and suddenly dispersed, turning into wisps of dim light that surrounded the clown and lingered for a long time.

The clown took out his career card.

Those dim lights immediately flew towards the professional card and were completely submerged in it.

The career card gradually became blurred.

The clown tried hard to see the changes on the card, but saw that the surrounding scenes had completely disappeared.

"You actually want to-"

Yana's surprised voice sounded, but it quickly disappeared from her ears, as if she was isolated.

The clown looked around blankly.

He found himself standing in an endless mist with nothing around him.

Suddenly, lines of burning small characters appeared:

"Your career card is fully powered and it takes you to the final level before promotion."

"Your attendant is working hard to arrive. She will explain the current situation to you in detail."

The next moment.

Yana quietly appeared next to the clown.

The mask on her face has been removed, revealing a pair of beautiful golden eyes, which are constantly looking at the clown.

"What's going on?" the clown asked.

Yana said softly: "After devouring two professional cards of Blood Knight and Hyena, and a 'Three-Headed Hyena' God of Samurai Card, you have broken away from the trainee ranks and will soon be recognized by the Infinite Rules -"

"You need to make a choice."

"Choose what?" the clown asked.

As soon as he finished speaking, the surrounding fog began to disperse rapidly.

In the boundless darkness, a huge divine pillar reaching the sky appeared.

The clown and Yana floated in front of the giant pillar, like a leaf of duckweed in the vast ocean, which was incomparable to them.

One end of this giant pillar goes deep into the darkness below, with no end in sight; the other end reaches straight into the sky, with no end in sight either.

There are various sculptures, patterns, and words carved on the pillars, none of which the clown can understand.

"This is the dividing line between the divine pillars... I haven't seen this scene for a long time." Yana said with emotion.

"Boundary line?" The clown looked at the huge pillar in front of him.

In front of him and Yana, the divine pillar was divided into two parts. The upward part was shrouded in endless firelight. Iron ropes were wrapped around the divine pillar one after another. From time to time, roars and screams sounded from the void around him. .

As for the divine pillar leading down, it was shrouded in endless darkness. There was no sound, and there were no iron ropes or anything like that. There were only countless statues carved with countless various beings - all of which were closed. With his eyes closed, he seemed to have fallen into an eternal sleep.

"Liu Ping," Yana changed her title and her expression became solemn: "As for your career and deck, it's time to choose the direction of growth."

"What do you mean?" Liu Ping asked.

"The way we grow as card masters is different from that of ordinary people——"

"The pillar leading to the top is called the 'Pillar of Purgatory'. If you choose this path, your cards will be composed of the laws of purgatory - you will have the opportunity to go to purgatory in the future, as long as you continue to become stronger. , you will eventually become a god who controls the laws, or a demon king who enslaves all living beings, or even go to the void or even other worlds."

Yana continued: "The sacred pillar leading below is called the 'Eternal Night Divine Pillar' - there are endless existences and unknown powers sleeping in the eternal night. If you desire to be the caller of heroic spirits, the silence and darkness will Dear friends, explorers of endless knowledge and secrets, choose this path and they will select and build the cards for you.”

Liu Ping stood in the void and thought for a moment.

"The guys in Purgatory always hunt slaves from Eternal Night, and even Lady Pain enslaved a world and picked cards from it. In this way, Eternal Night should not be as powerful as Purgatory, right?" he asked.

"Each has its own strengths, and the truth is not what you think - whether it is the Lord of Blood or the Lady of Pain, they are not powerful in purgatory." Yana said.

"Isn't stealing a world considered powerful?" Liu Ping asked.

"Yes, they only dare to do some such things secretly, but they absolutely dare not enter the depths of the eternal night and face the endless heroic spirits and unknown existences in the eternal night."

After Yana finished speaking, she stepped aside and looked at him quietly.

Liu Ping thought for a moment and suddenly smiled: "My world has been completely destroyed, and everyone has been manipulated as the dead... In fact, I have long wanted to stand on the opposite side of those gods."

"So you choose the Pillar of Eternal Night?"

"right."

As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Ping's feet flew into the air, and his whole body flew towards the dark depths below.

The fog lingered around him.

The icy wind howled non-stop.

On that eternal night pillar, the endless sleepers opened their eyes together and looked at him quietly.
