Chapter 61: Awakening Ceremony of the Evil Body

Due to the Ghost Eye incident, Class 15 of the 15th Middle School had a day off today.

The students from other classes were lucky to have an extra day off, while the three classes involved in the incident were forced to stay in school.

Noon, 12 o'clock.

Comprehensive Building.

Cheng Han pushed a cart full of fruits and arrived at the entrance of the conference room.

Three students happened to walk out together.

As soon as they saw Cheng Han, their expressions became tense, and one of them even averted his gaze and dared not look at Cheng Han again.

This appearance was like a flock of sheep encountering a lion.

A tall student stuttered, "Ch-Cheng... Cheng Inspector, good afternoon!"

In the past, everyone usually called Cheng Han by his name, but now they didn't even dare to call his name and instead referred to his position.

This was obviously not right.

Cheng Han remained calm, "Are you going to the restroom? Hurry back after you're done, it's time for lunch."

The three nodded repeatedly and hurriedly left.

Cheng Han shook his head gently.

He understood in his heart that news of him killing someone had spread to his classmates.

This was inevitable.

At the time of the murder, the students of Class 3-3 next door witnessed the whole scene. How could such a thing be concealed?

By the way, the school concealed Ye Qin's identity. Everyone only knew that Cheng Han had killed someone, but they didn't know that the goddess in many people's hearts had become a headless corpse.

Cheng Han sighed with a hint of emotion and entered the conference room.

Qian Qingqing's crisp voice, filled with a smile, floated up first, "Cheng Han, did you plunder the school cafeteria again?"

At first, the little girl was surprised, amused, and admired by Cheng Han's ability to "plunder" the cafeteria repeatedly. Now, she was used to it.

If it were someone else, they would have been expelled long ago for doing such things.

Cheng Han smiled, "You all have been guarding the Comprehensive Building, so I specially came to treat you."

His gaze swept over everyone and unsurprisingly found that many classmates were avoiding eye contact with him.

For a moment, the atmosphere became a bit awkward.

At this moment, a female voice filled with anger broke the silence, "Cheng Han killed the followers of the Evil God and found the key item of the Ghost Eye incident. What's your attitude?"

It was Wan Tengjiao.

This short-haired girl couldn't stand it anymore and spoke up for justice.

Qian Qingqing stood up for her desk mate, "If it weren't for Cheng Han saving people in the Mushroom Cave, I'm afraid many people would be lying in the hospital not knowing whether they're alive or dead."

At this moment, these two girls surprisingly reached a consensus.

They couldn't help but glance at each other and quickly looked away.

Wan Tengjiao directly assumed the authority of the class monitor and shouted, "If anyone continues to have a two-faced attitude, don't blame me for being impolite!"

This short-haired girl had always been tough, and no one doubted that she would do what she said.

Many students lowered their heads.

The room became even quieter.

Cheng Han didn't mind being feared by others and said with a smile, "Alright! Let's have lunch."

Soon, lunch boxes and fruits were distributed.

The conference room was filled with the aroma of food.

After observing for a while, Cheng Han found that the students' condition was better than expected.

From last night until now, no student had seen the Ghost Eye, indicating that the authorities were using bookmarks to suppress the transmission of the Ghost Eye and had achieved some results.

He communicated with Zhen Yan Cang Yin with his mind and walked to a student, handing over a piece of fruit, "Dang Wen, why aren't you taking any fruit? Take it!"

At the same time, a strand of Zhen Yan's power leaped into the fruit.

Dang Wen was a little surprised and quickly took the fruit, "Thank you!"

In the invisible realm, strands of peculiar energy like floating fluff emanated from his body and flew towards a mysterious place.

This was the Ghost Eye absorbing the essence of the soul.

Cheng Han patted Dang Wen's shoulder, "A balanced diet is very important. It's best to eat some fruits every day."

With this action, Zhen Yan's power transformed into a mysterious form and merged into Dang Wen's spiritual sea through the "light energy transference" method.

In an instant, another strand of soul essence was drawn out by the Ghost Eye.

No one knew that it contained a strand of exotic energy.

This is called hitchhiking.

Cheng Han thought to himself, "The Ghost Eye is the whisper of the gods. I can't deduce where the essence of the soul is going, nor do I know what the Divine Descent Group wants to do, but I can secretly add a little something."

He proudly quoted a saying from his past life, "If the enemy can go, so can I!"

Cheng Han smiled and said, "Fruits like 'Zhu Guo' and 'Gold Core' can be bought in large quantities for two copper coins. If you eat some every day, it can prevent gum bleeding."

This is the "Life Knowledge" deduced by the Eye of Omniscience.

Party Wen nodded repeatedly, his attitude resembling that of a student facing a teacher: "Okay, I remember."

The group of classmates next to him listened attentively, firmly remembering the effects of Zhu Guo and Gold Core.

Qian Qingqing praised without hesitation, "Cheng Han, you know so much! I remember that the botany textbook didn't mention what you just said."

Others nodded in agreement.

Cheng Han smiled and remained silent.

*

In a highly secretive cave.

A bloody and brutal ritual was taking place.

Dozens of civilians were bound with ropes and brought into the cave. A group of black-robed figures slaughtered the civilians like chickens and sheep, then moved the bodies next to a pool of blood.

"Gudong~"

The pool of blood surged violently.

The fresh blood flowing from the bodies seemed to be attracted by a mysterious force, flowing towards the pool like a tide.

In just a few breaths, the bodies became like mummies.

The black-robed figures quickly moved the bodies away.

A shadowy figure approached and observed a grotesque corpse at the center of the cave, murmuring in satisfaction, "Once the ritual continues for a while, the 'evil body' will be officially awakened."

Another tall figure showed anticipation, "Once we have the evil body, we can teach those Xuan Shi from the Tai'an Xuan Pavilion a lesson."

At this moment, Cheng Han used a special method to send a strand of true flame power that he had "hitchhiked" over, which descended upon the scene of the ritual.

Like a drop of cold water falling into a boiling oil, a mutation occurred.

A flash of black light suddenly appeared from the silver spearhead inserted into the back of one of the bodies.

"Clang! Clang!"

The chain connected to the spearhead suddenly trembled.

The shadowy figure was taken aback and asked in a puzzled tone, "What's wrong with the 'Ghost Eye Chain'? This kind of situation has never occurred before."

The tall figure speculated, "Could it be that the Ghost Eye Chain has absorbed enough soul energy?"

The shadowy figure decisively rejected, "According to calculations, the ritual process should take at least two days. It has only been one day, so how is it possible for it to happen so quickly?"

The tall figure was stumped by the question.

After a moment.

A piercing scream suddenly emanated from the spearhead.

"Hualala~"

The Ghost Eye Chain trembled even more violently.

The not-yet-completed evil body suddenly opened its eyes.

Instead of eyeballs, there were two wriggling masses of flesh in its eye sockets. Just making eye contact gave people a strange feeling as if their souls were being sucked in.

The tone of the tall figure was filled with pride, "Perhaps the ritual has been completed ahead of schedule. Shouldn't we proceed to the next step?"

However, the shadowy figure felt that something was amiss, "I have consulted the scriptures, and the 'Death Soul Eyes' of the evil body are definitely not like this. There must be something wrong."

After a moment.

The mouth of the evil body suddenly opened at an astonishing angle, and a cluster of small tentacles emerged, speaking in an extremely grating voice, "I... want... flesh..."

The tall figure sensed extreme danger and his face changed drastically, "Oh no, the evil body is backlashing!"

In the next instant, the evil body pounced at an extremely fast speed.

The tall figure roared, and more than ten blood-colored tentacles shot out from his black robe, meeting the evil body head-on.

An unexpected battle erupted.

*

One moment later.

The evil body devoured more than ten followers of the divine cult, undergoing a tremendous transformation in appearance.

Originally, it was just a corpse.

Now, it had become a huge mass of flesh.

"Boom!"

The mass of flesh exploded.

After a while.

A figure emerged from the shadows in a corner of the cave.

It was the shadowy figure.

"Cough! Cough!"

He coughed hard a few times, looking at the chaotic cave with a bewildered expression, "The scriptures clearly stated that as long as the ritual is conducted according to the steps, the evil body will never lose control. What on earth is going on?"

There had been many previous awakenings of the evil body, and nothing had gone wrong. Why...

No one answered.

The tall figure from earlier, along with the other followers present, had already been devoured by the evil body.

Only the shadowy figure had narrowly escaped disaster by relying on a secret technique.
