Chapter 695 [(*^▽^*)]
Lin Leyou subconsciously touched his ear. The voice sounded as if someone was speaking right next to his ear, and he could also feel the presence behind him.
This ghost is quite interesting; even now, it hasn't forgotten to scare itself. So what is it planning?
He didn't intend to speak or do anything else. In fact, not turning around was the right thing to do, since the ghost behind him didn't look good at all, and if someone accidentally looked at it, they would really be scared.
Lin Leyou first activated the invincibility time of Jin Yang, then took out the red lotus from his backpack. When the blood-red lotus appeared in his hand...
The seemingly transparent, ethereal flames instantly ignited Lin Leyou and the ghosts behind him.
Lin Leyou seemed oblivious to the piercing scream that echoed through the night behind him, staring blankly at the red lotus in his hand.
The Crimson Lotus is like burning blood, an ethereal flame, seemingly about to be scattered by a gentle breeze in the next second. It would only be the size of a palm if it landed in your hand, but its power is undeniable.
Lin Leyou then turned his attention to himself. His entire body was engulfed in transparent red flames. Although he felt no pain, he could sense that his soul was indeed burning within his body.
Jin Yang's invincibility can indeed prevent him from being harmed, but burning away the sins on his body is not a complete harm. Burning away the sins is a good thing in itself.
So this prop, Jin Yang, blocked the harm he received, but it didn't stop the disappearance of the sins on his body. That's good!
After all his sins were burned away, he would no longer need to consume the invincible protection time of the Golden Sun when he used the Red Lotus in the future, and could use it for other purposes.
Lin Leyou turned around with a smile to look at the ghost behind him. The ghost looked like a mutated and twisted withered tree. After being entangled by karmic fire, its rough skin, as rough as tree bark, and the scattered vines and branches around it were all burning.
In other words, the flames were not bright; they only illuminated a small area around the tree. From a distance, it might just look like a campfire.
"What did you do...you...what did you do?!"
He roared and staggered toward them, but Lin Leyou floated up and flew quickly backward. "What do you think? Can't you see what I'm holding?"
The other party felt intense pain originating from their very soul. They could only vaguely make out the figure of Lin Leyou. To see what was in his hand? Absolutely impossible!
"Don't run...don't run! I'll kill you, I'll kill you!!"
Lin Leyou was certain that the other party's spirit was being gradually destroyed, and now was the perfect opportunity for him to strike. He could use his ability to kill with a back-turn attack.
If this ability had been used before, no one would have fallen for it, especially not this ghost, but that's not necessarily the case now.
He smiled and continued to walk the other person around the area as if he were walking a dog, until five or six minutes later, when he sped up and disappeared into the darkness.
Having lost most of its consciousness, the ghost waved its burning vines, which showed no signs of burning, and began to help itself chase after Lin Leyou in the direction he had disappeared.
Lin Leyou circled around and came up behind him. "Where are we going? I'm behind you, turn around and look."
For this "turn-around kill" ability to be successfully triggered, you must speak from behind the other person, and your words must include the word "turn around." The other person must also turn around and see you.
Under any other circumstances, this person would never have turned back. He could even control the plants to attack him. He looked at the weeds dancing around him. These weeds had lost their leisurely appearance during the day and had all become fierce and menacing, as if they were searching for Lin Leyou's figure.
Upon hearing his words, the other person quickly turned around, and seeing that Lin Leyou was indeed behind him, he laughed wildly and turned around, "Here, really here!"
"Hahaha! Found it! Found it!"
But the next second he found himself unable to move. Then, for some reason, he suddenly regained consciousness and stared at Lin Leyou in front of him with a cold gaze.
Lin Leyou's appearance at this moment was not much different from that during the day; at least he still looked like a human, but he himself was a monster.
"You win."
He left behind these last words, and then his entire body exploded like a balloon. Unlike the female ghost before him, the flames did not dissipate naturally; they burned even the fragments to ashes before slowly fading into the night.
Lin Leyou watched the dissipating red specks of light, then his gaze fell on himself. Seven minutes had passed, but the flames on his body still hadn't dissipated.
Hasn't his sin been burned away yet? How long will it take?
If this goes on for more than ten minutes, won't I be doomed?
If I put the Crimson Lotus into my backpack, will the flames stop?
He then carefully put away the Red Lotus, but unfortunately, although he put the Red Lotus into his backpack, the flames on his body continued to burn fiercely, showing no signs of disappearing or going out.
He suddenly sensed something; it seemed that someone of his kind was approaching from afar. He had now acquired a portion of this Sixteen's memories and abilities.
In other words, he can now stay at Villa No. 16, but if the flames on his body are not extinguished within ten minutes, he will become extremely vulnerable.
Therefore, I must return to that villa now. Staying inside the villa is the safest option for me, at least there the ghosts and monsters roaming the grasslands can't touch me there.
At this point, he was much faster. In less than a minute, he returned to the village and arrived at the street he had passed during the day. He naturally found villa number sixteen.
From the moment he approached the village until he arrived here at top speed, he could feel twenty or thirty gazes fixed on him, which was extremely annoying.
But they just watched and didn't dare to come closer, after all, he was still burning with karmic fire, which was a great weapon against ghosts!
He saw a sign hanging on the gate that read "Lin Zi" (林子), which this time was his surname? Not bad.
As the nine minutes drew near, Lin Leyou placed his hand on the door. After feeling his power mark the entire villa, he was somewhat puzzled.
This house must have been marked with the power of the soul, and at this moment, the flames on his body had not yet been extinguished, so the spiritual power marking this villa still carried a tiny bit of karmic fire power.
These flames do not disappear over time; instead, they are fixed inside the house. Although the flames are few, they are like tiny sparks.
If any ghost or monster approaches or tries to break into his house, it will ignite instantly, as if it had been soaked in a vat of liquid and then touched a spark.
Lin Leyou smiled and pushed open the door to enter. The house was decorated in an extremely luxurious way, with almost everything made of plants. He had no interest in these things for the time being.
Only after confirming that there was no one else inside besides himself did he feel at ease and lie down on the ground.
The flames on his body had not yet been extinguished, and only then did he realize that he had probably gone too far.
Once this karmic fire takes hold, there is absolutely no way to extinguish it except by burning away all sins itself, so all he can do now is wait.
The remaining time passed quickly as Lin Leyou waited, and ten minutes were up in no time!
Lin Leyou finally felt the pain of the ghost he had just experienced. He gritted his teeth, widened his eyes, and gripped his arms tightly with both hands. The flames were invisible, but they seemed to ignite every drop of blood in his body, and every cell was burning. However, when he gripped himself, he did not feel any problems with his body.
His body temperature was normal, but the intense pain of his whole body, as if his blood and bones were being burned, made him mentally confused and listless. At this moment, he couldn't think of anything except the pain in his body.
He felt that he would never experience such pain again in his life, whether now or in the future.
This is killing me! This is really killing me!
Lin Leyou was curled up on the floor, seemingly only trembling slightly, but in reality he was enduring inhuman pain. Fortunately, he still had the Golden Sun prop that provided a 50% increase in mental recovery speed.
Otherwise... they absolutely wouldn't be able to withstand this karmic fire burning so fiercely.
Just then, a dark figure appeared outside the house. It was unclear when the figure had appeared or what it was doing there. The figure seemed puzzled and bent down to look at the front door of the house.
He then reached out to touch it, but just as his fingers were about to touch the door, he withdrew his hand, as if he sensed something was wrong.
"What's going on... this house gives me a very dangerous feeling."
"Hmm...this is strange, what's going on?"
He muttered to himself for a while before turning and leaving. Lin Leyou didn't know how much time had passed before he relaxed his body, opened his eyes and looked up. He suddenly realized that it was dawn!
Only then did he belatedly realize that the karmic fire had been burning on his body all night! For an entire night, if it weren't for Jin Yang, he would have been burned to death!
Thank goodness, he was still alive, which meant that he would definitely not be ignited by his own Red Lotus. Lin Leyou, whose spirit had been severely damaged, immediately took out his Red Lotus again.
At this moment, the red lotus he held in his hands not only did not cause him any harm, but also gave him a very strange feeling. The flame felt cool to the touch and was very comfortable.
