Li Zhiyi stood at the restaurant entrance. Before she could knock, the door opened automatically as if waiting for her to come in. Li Zhiyi walked into the restaurant, where the interior was dimly lit, with only white candles burning on the floor.
She smelled a pungent stench of blood, along with a foul odor, different from the smell of a corpse, even more disgusting and assaulting her taste buds.
With a bang, the door behind him closed automatically again. Li Zhi didn't care and kept walking inside until he reached the kitchen. He saw that the cement platform there was divided into squares, with more than a dozen squares in total.
Only then did Li Zhizhi notice something moving inside the squares. By the dim candlelight, he could barely make out what it was; it looked like an animal.
Only when you get closer can you see clearly, is this a person? There is no hair on its head, it is bald, and the skin on its body has also disappeared, revealing the original color of the flesh, which is covered with a pool of turbid yellow liquid.
The man's eyes and mouth were also sewn shut. He turned to look at the other thing in the cement pool, which also contained a human without limbs.
This person is in an even worse state; their nose has been cut off, leaving two large holes on their face, with pus still oozing from where their nose was. It looks extremely disgusting!
Li Zhiyi took a few steps forward. The pool here was smaller, and inside was a tiny person, at most a little over a year old. The child's mouth was not sewn shut, but all of his teeth had been pulled out.
The child was naked and trembling slightly. He was clearly not dead yet, but he was definitely not going to survive. There was still a lot of blood on the child's body, and it looked like the skin on the child's thigh had just been cut off.
This little child was also treated so cruelly; even his ears were cut off, and now only two pieces of flesh remain.
These people have been made into the shape of human cocoons. I remember my master telling me when I was a child that in the past, circuses would keep people in tanks and make them into the shape of human cocoons for people to watch in order to attract audiences. There will never be a shortage of perverted people in this world who like these exciting and torturous things.
At this moment, Li Zhiyi saw a complete human skin hanging above the wall, and on the chopping board next to it were human legs, arms and other things, as well as a heart.
Blood was still dripping from under the cutting board. Li Zhi felt her hair go numb and her heart clench as if someone was choking her, making it hard to breathe. Although she knew that these sorcerers were cruel, seeing it with her own eyes was still too brutal!
An ordinary person would have fainted from fright upon seeing these things, or at least be completely terrified. But Li Zhi only felt anger.
Li Zhiyi's anger reached its peak, and he roared, "You wicked bastard, get out here!"
At that moment, a male voice came from the darkness: "Haha, I just want to make a deal with you."
"Enough with the nonsense. Aren't you afraid of divine retribution for doing such a heinous thing?"
"Let me finish speaking before you answer me. If I tell you where your master is, will you be willing to make a deal with me?"
Li Zhiyi was shocked that this sorcerer knew the purpose of his visit to Thailand, and shouted angrily, "How did you know the whereabouts of my master?"
“Miss Li, don’t worry about how I know. All I want now is Gu Siye’s body and soul. That way, my cultivation will increase dramatically. Can you help me? If you help me accomplish this, I will grant you anything you want. I can even help you attain the path to ascension.”
“I am on the righteous path, you are on the evil path. You have no right to negotiate with me. You, who dares to dream of ascension, would not even be accepted by the eighteenth level of hell.”
"You won't listen to reason, so you'll have to suffer the consequences!" The man was enraged, and those words fell to the ground.
Many wronged spirits appeared before Li Zhiyi, and these spirits bared their fangs and claws at him.
Li Zhi chanted a spell, and the entire room instantly became brightly lit. However, accompanied by the wailing and howling of ghosts, the lights in the room went out again, and this time even the candles burning in the corner were extinguished.
The entire room was plunged into darkness, so dark that you couldn't see your hand in front of your face, but that didn't affect Li Zhiyi's vision. She could see in the dark, and seeing a human head flying towards her, she struck it down with a palm.
The horrific screams continued unabated, and these wandering spirits, utterly fearless, continued to charge towards Li Zhiyi. At this moment, Xiaobai, who was in Li Zhiyi's arms, was also awakened by the shocking sounds.
They joined the battle, but facing so many vengeful spirits, and these spirits were so powerful, Li Zhiyi was accidentally grabbed on the back by a ghostly figure.
She closed her eyes and began chanting incantations to set up a magic circle. The red rope in her hand spun in the air, binding many wronged souls within it.
She also threw out her Bagua mirror, and some ghosts and wandering spirits were sucked in by its light. She quickly made hand gestures and chanted incantations, and a golden phantom enveloped Li Zhiyi. Li Zhiyi muttered incantations, and talismans flew out from her side, striking the souls.
Because Li Zhiyi was protected by golden light, evil spirits could not get in. These wronged souls could only circle around Li Zhiyi, and Xiaobai kept devouring the souls of the wronged souls alive.
At this moment, the human skin on the wall seemed to come alive and walked down from the wall. Yes, a complete human skin could walk without the support of flesh. The skin was empty all around and walked step by step towards Li Zhiyi.
Li Zhi suddenly realized and said, "You're a skin magic sorcerer? You captured these people just to eat their skin and increase your own cultivation?"
The first step in the cultivation method of the Skin Magic Evil Master is to eat away at his own body, starting from the lower half, bit by bit, while he is fully conscious. He even crushes and eats his own head until only a complete skin remains. Only then can he begin his cultivation.
Then this complete skin needs to rely on eating the skin of living people to cultivate its evil magic. So these people here have been kept alive by this skin magician in a state of neither life nor death. This magic is not just ordinary vicious and evil!
"I didn't expect you to be so smart that you even know this. Since you're unwilling to help me obtain a perfect body, then I'll skin you and eat you."
"Then let's give it a try." Li Zhiyi knew that this skin magician was most afraid of damaging her skin, so she took out a dagger and assumed a defensive stance.
The skin magician reached out and grabbed at Li Zhiyi's surroundings. In that instant, Li Zhiyi felt his protective barrier break.
