"A tongue turning wheel! A blink of the universe! The wonderful realm is beyond words! The heavens are mysterious and divine, don't be surprised! Our lord is supreme! How dare you be startled!?"
As the wooden bamboo slips spoke these words using the human tongue, everything around them began to twist and distort, and the senses of everyone on the island began to change simultaneously.
Visual, taste, smell, and hearing all gradually merged together, forming a new perception that ordinary people could not understand.
Through this extremely peculiar perception ability, Li Huowang and others broke through the limits of human perception.
They saw the deepest part of the sky, where countless deeper black worlds rotated with the sun in an unfathomable vast dark abyss, where something was moving.
Li Huowang smelled a hint of terror emanating from that thing's gaze, tasted the terrifying breath that made people tremble uncontrollably, and saw the strange melody brought about by the slight movement of that thing.
"Boom~ Boom Boom~ Boom!!"
Li Huowang felt that it was very far away from him, but its melody was so charming and clear.
Li Huowang could not find anything in reality that corresponded to this melody. The only thing that was somewhat similar to this thing was the thunder before the arrival of the God of Happiness.
But this thing was much more powerful than the God of Happiness, and the weak God of Happiness was simply nothing compared to it.
Li Huowang almost hesitated to make this judgment, even though he had no idea what he was perceiving.
"Commit suicide to make Danyang Zi come out? No! Danyang Zi is nothing in front of it! The difference between the two is too great!!"
This novel is available on "pawread dot com".
Li Huowang despaired, realizing that in front of that thing, mortals had no chance of resistance.
Just as Li Huowang was completely hopeless and waiting for death, his twisted senses suddenly inexplicably returned to normal.
"Hmm?" Before Li Huowang could figure out what had happened, his expression suddenly changed. He quickly grabbed his sword and rushed towards Yuan Er outside.
At this time, Yuan Er, who was blind, was barely breathing. He only made a slight turning motion, and with Li Huowang's swift sword swing, his head flew off.
As the head fell to the ground, everything around them returned to normal.
Breathless, Li Huowang stood there with his sword, looking up at the pitch-black sky in horror.
It was as if everything before had been an illusion, but Li Huowang knew that it was definitely not an illusion. That thing really existed.
Li Huowang attempted to piece together the feeling of the thing he had sensed before, but was shocked to find that he could no longer remember what it felt like.
With his current senses, he could not understand what kind of feeling he had encountered before.
Although the danger had passed, the island was now extremely quiet.Everyone froze in place, with deep fear in their eyes. What Li Huowang saw, they saw too.
Everyone's face turned pale, and their bodies began to tremble involuntarily. They all felt very cold, with a bone-chilling coldness flowing from their hearts.
"Is that it? Yuan Er went all out, just to scare us?"
Looking at the intact people around him, Li Huowang felt a hint of doubt in his heart.
The current safe situation made him feel uneasy.
Li Huowang took a deep breath and used his blood-stained long sword to open the curled up red bamboo slip, only to find that the organs inside had dried up and turned black.
Li Huowang knelt down and looked warily at the contents on the red bamboo slip.
The black characters on the red bamboo slip were very small and very strange.
He had never seen this kind of writing before, but when he looked closely, he found that he could recognize the content written on it.
"Bai Wan...Zhen Lu...Swallow its belly...Pull out its bones..."
This was an extremely evil bamboo slip, which recorded how to use one's own greatest pain and flesh and blood to exchange for something with a certain existence.
The lightest method was to insert bamboo chips horizontally into one's own fingernails, pull them up, and pry out the entire fingernail.
The heavier method was to chew a large bag of rusty iron shavings and swallow them.
Finally, it taught readers how to sacrifice their own blood relatives and bones to make a deal with something.
The more brutal the method, the more terrifying it became, and it was almost beyond Li Huowang's endurance.
Finally, after reading half of the content, Li Huowang couldn't help but vomit.
After vomiting out all the pork he had eaten earlier, he gritted his teeth and persisted in looking through it, despite feeling nauseous.
He was really uneasy if he didn't find out what Yuan Er was doing. If it was a curse, it would be a big trouble.
Continuing to flip through it with disgust, he finally found Yuan Er's method on the fourth bamboo slip.
"No, Yuan Er didn't just want to scare us, he was trying to summon something. But he failed."
"Ba Huo" was the name of that thing, and the source of all the suffering on this bamboo slip.
Yuan Er failed because he couldn't pay the price to summon it.
According to the requirements on the bamboo slip, although his body was extremely painful, his heart was not painful enough. Even if his whole family had just died, it was still not enough.
To summon Ba Huo, extreme physical and mental pain was required.
Li Huowang turned his head and took another look at Yuan Er's eyeless and mouthless head.
It seemed that he had just learned about the use of this bamboo slip and was not proficient.
But this was normal. Once any of the methods on this bamboo slip were used, death was inevitable, and it was impossible to become familiar with them while still alive.Although it's safe now, Li Huowang's heart hasn't settled down.
He didn't care where the bandits got this disgusting bamboo slip from, but he was more concerned about who wrote it.
Could there be a sect like the Zhengde Temple?
But they don't practice flesh and blood techniques like monks, but extreme suffering?
But if they practice according to the content above, there will probably be few survivors.
"Unless their sect has a way to let themselves endure so much injury and still not die."
Li Huowang guessed randomly as he looked at the bamboo slip in his hand.
At this moment, Li Huowang realized that his previous speculation about this place, even the darkest ones, seemed too optimistic.
It's far more dangerous here than he imagined. He already knows that there are special existences like immortals and happiness gods.
But this time really opened his eyes, there are things far more terrifying than them.
"Bayou..." Li Huowang muttered to himself, standing still.
