Inside the treacherous pawnshop.
"Use the spirituality of all of us to obtain a way to open a passage between the burial ground and the mortal world," Fang Xiu asked the mummified corpse.
He wasn't asking about how to get everyone to leave, but rather how to open the passage. Without opening the passage, his army of hundreds of Taotie would never be able to appear in the world.
Soon, the mummified corpse moved. It opened its withered palms, and a strange suction force emanated from them, drawing out the spiritual energy of Fang Xiu and the others at a visible speed.
Thump, thump...
One by one, everyone collapsed to the ground, leaving only Fang Xiu standing in place.
A note appeared on the counter, and Fang Xiu picked it up to read it.
The sign above read: "Completely control the Heart of Forbidden Evil."
Fang Xiu frowned. Controlling a strange seventh-order heart?
Suddenly, he took out a scalpel and plunged it into his forehead.
........
........
"We will exchange the spirituality of all of us for the method to control the forbidden heart."
Thump, thump...
Everyone except Fang Xiu fell to the ground.
Fang Xiu calmly took the note and examined it.
"Transplanting the forbidden heart."
Upon seeing this, his eyes flickered slightly, and he had a vague guess in his heart: Could this be Zhou Qingfeng's plan?
First it was the Primal Mask, and now it's the Forbidden Heart. Considering their previous actions, their purpose is self-evident.
replace!
The original mask belonged to Zhou Qingfeng, as did the Heart of Forbidden Ghosts. Step by step, things belonging to Zhou Qingfeng were transplanted into it. What will it eventually become?
Fang Xiu never believed that he was the reincarnation of Zhou Qingfeng; he preferred to believe that it was all Zhou Qingfeng's scheme.
First, plant the seeds of doubt in your heart, then gradually implant the organs from before. Perhaps in the end, Zhou Qingfeng will be reborn and return.
Whoosh!
Another stab.
........
........
"The Heart of Forbidden Demons is a seventh-tier product; how can one withstand it?"
"The Primal Mask can suppress it."
Upon seeing this reply, Fang Xiu laughed. The Primordial Mask can suppress the Heart of Forbidden Evil? Doesn't that mean only I can transplant the Heart of Forbidden Evil?
The Primal Mask may seem like a mask, but it is more of a power. This power has long recognized Fang Xiu as its master and has perfectly integrated into his body through repeated breakthroughs, becoming an inseparable part of him like a nightmare.
The coincidences are so great that even a fool wouldn't believe it wasn't Zhou Qingfeng's scheme.
"A shady pawnshop? Interesting."
Fang Xiu discovers that this so-called shady pawnshop seems to be able to answer many questions, but these answers are constantly guiding you in a predetermined direction.
Just like when he asked about Zhou Qingfeng's location.
The pawnshop's answer at the time was that it was at the burial site.
But to this day, apart from seeing Zhou Qingfeng's projection from the previous era, no one has seen the real Zhou Qingfeng.
Fang Xiu now has no doubt that the pawnshop's claim that Zhou Qingfeng was buried at the burial site refers to himself.
Misleading! It's been misleading all along!
All of this is to plant the seeds of self-doubt in one's own heart.
Fang Xiu's smile widened. He decided to transplant the Heart of Forbidden Demons. Since Zhou Qingfeng wanted to play, he would play along.
Zhou Qingfeng coveted his body, but how could he not covet his power?
Even if he is strong, he is still a loser of the last era. If even those who were defeated by the God of Deception are wary of him, how can he make the God of Deception feel pain?
Let's see who comes out on top in the end.
If he were to die like this, it would only prove that he was nothing special, and that his hatred for his wife and the strange creature was just a joke.
Fang Xiu has always disregarded life, but he disregarded not only the lives of others, but also his own!
Humans are not on the same level as the demon gods; they are like insignificant insects that can be crushed underfoot.
Without the courage to risk everything and the belief that one must fight to the death to survive, there is no chance of winning.
With this thought in mind, Fang Xiu plunged a knife into his forehead.
......
......
"We'll trade all of our spirituality for a way to obtain the Heart of the Forbidden Demon."
Then everyone died again.
There's no other benefit to following Fang Xiu except that you can experience death multiple times for free.
"An object must be found to replace the Heart of Forbidden Ghosts in suppressing the burial site before it can be retrieved."
Upon seeing this, Fang Xiu frowned slightly. Find something to replace the Heart of Forbidden Ghosts to suppress the burial ground? The Heart of Forbidden Ghosts is suspected to be the heart of a seventh-order ghost. If he wants to find a substitute, wouldn't he have to find a seventh-order ghost?
This kind of strangeness is too powerful; even spatial nodes cannot enter it, let alone the burial ground. The only way to find this kind of strangeness is to go to the other side.
Unexpectedly, after going around in circles, they finally reached a stalemate. Did Yang Ming and the others have no choice but to stay at the burial site and work there?
Others can work, but Yang Ming and Xiao Chuxia can't; these two are his two strongest tools.
It's not that they are powerful, but that their abilities are very useful: one is destiny, the other is a lie, one can make their wishes come true, and the other can deceive people.
With the two of them around, they can handle most complex situations; they are truly all-around helpful tools.
And so, Fang Xiu lingered at the burial site for another three days. He made various attempts, but ultimately came up empty-handed. It seemed that Yang Ming and the others staying at the burial site was a foregone conclusion.
Moreover, he learned some terrible news from the pawnshop: even if he managed to collect 500 million ghost money, he could only leave one person per year.
Because the burial site must ensure that the power of the Heart of the Demon is not affected, it is impossible to grant a portion of its authority to others without limit. If too much power is given away, it is very likely that the spatial node will not be able to be suppressed, leading to the invasion of the demon into the mortal world.
Granting one access point per year is already the limit.
This means that it would take at least five years for everyone to leave.
Since there is no way to break the deadlock in the burial site, then we can only go and see what happens in the mortal world.
On this day, Fang Xiu left the burial site under the watchful eyes of everyone.
Although the group could not leave, they did not despair, because Fang Xiu left them with a Taotie army. Although the Taotie army could not help them make money, it could save them money and ensure their safety when they encountered powerful and strange creatures.
Yang Ming and his group were treated much better than Lu Ziming and his group. If Lu Ziming and his group had received such treatment back then, they probably wouldn't have turned to the dark side.
Fang Xiu activated the power of the Heart of Forbidden Ghosts, and a sense of spatial disintegration came over him. Under everyone's gaze, his figure slowly became transparent and finally disappeared completely.
......
......
In the present world, at platform 18 of the high-speed rail station in Johoku Ward, Kamijō City.
Fang Xiu's figure appeared out of thin air on the platform. Bright and clean modern buildings came into view, and the atmosphere of modern life was everywhere. The surroundings were bustling with people coming and going.
He looked at all of this and felt as if he were in another world.
After spending two months in the gray fog at the burial site, it felt as if my eyes were forever covered by a layer of fog, and the world was always so blurry, hazy, and oppressive in my eyes.
The stench in the air was gone, replaced by a refreshing haze.
