The three big words seemed as if they would drip blood at any moment. It was a shocking sight to behold.

Unknowingly, a door suddenly appeared right in front of me.

The will-o '-the-wisp was still rising, and the door stood in front of the will-o' -the-wisp.

The door was wide open, and it looked incredibly majestic. A plaque could be seen on top of it, upon which were written the characters' Door of Karma!

The words passed down by the ancestors were indeed very magical, as if they contained some kind of mysterious power. They were able to fuse together emotions and even auras.

On these three words, it was as if I could see a sense of desolation and vicissitudes, as if I could see countless negative emotions.

Causality...

Why did he see such a thing? Isn't this way too strange …

Now that he thought about it, this door was very much like the one described on television, like the door to hell in the Underworld.

On both sides of the door, there were two big words …

In front of the Spring of Samsara.

Life and death within the Karma Gate.

And inside the door, it was like the eighteen levels of hell as they let out waves of screams.

There was also a series of knocks.

The knocking sounds seemed to pierce into one's bones, and one could clearly hear the rubbing sounds of bones against each other. These sounds made one's heart tremble.

At that moment, I saw a mist appear from within the door. The mist even covered the ghost flames in the distance.

However, through the mist, I saw many familiar faces. It was as if the entire atmosphere around them had changed.

I saw many villagers in the village. Their expressions were all distorted to the extreme, and even if it wasn't me who looked at them closely, it would be difficult to recognize them.

Moreover, some people's faces were hidden by the fog, making them impossible to see.

I looked at the person in front of me and felt my heart tremble. Why … Why were the villagers here!

Karma Gate! What exactly is this place!? Am I still in the human world!?

The pain in my calf was even more intense, stimulating my brain. However, the pain in my body was incomparable to the waves in my heart!

At this moment, in the Gate of Karma, I saw an incomparably sinister face …

That was … Myself!

Ah!

Looking at the ferocious yet familiar face, I screamed and abruptly sat up on the brick bed. My entire body was drenched in sweat.

Lingling, on the other side of the brick bed, looked at me worriedly with a little fear in her eyes.

Looking at Lingling's expression, I realized that what I saw just now should only be a dream.

However, this dream was too realistic. It was as if he had experienced it for himself.

If it weren't for this dream, I would never have thought that I could have displayed such a ferocious posture.

He held a bloody knife in his hand. His eyes were wide open and the corners of his mouth were raised. His dense teeth were exposed and a ferocious expression was revealed on his face.

It was a cruel smile, and his face was contorted, as if he was very happy with his own slaughter.

Even with my own face, I still feel like this woman is a ghost that just walked out of hell …

I don't know what kind of strange action I did in my sleep that caused Lingling to become flustered, but after taking a few deep breaths, my mind became much more stable.

After all, I was awake now, and everything around me was gone.

Shaking my head, I wiped the sweat off my forehead. Then, I walked over to Lingling's side and rubbed her head, signalling her not to be too afraid.

Then, I looked out of the window. The sky had already darkened slightly. Looking at the time, it was already 8 PM.

I was a little surprised that I had slept for such a long time. At this time, Lingling curiously asked:

"Elder sister, did you have a nightmare? Did you dream about something?"

Lingling's mental state was originally good, but after being in contact with me for such a long time, her recovery ability had also become a lot stronger. The fear in her eyes had already disappeared, and was replaced with a worried look.

I smiled but didn't tell her the truth about the dream I just had because I was recalling it. I didn't even know how to describe it.

This dream always gave me a strange feeling, not just of reality, but of something faintly similar to what we were experiencing now.

What was karma, what did it mean when you talked about life and death in front of the Door of Karma? His actions during his lifetime had made his death the fruit of his desolation …

Since the villagers knew that there was a secret hidden within their hearts, then the word 'cause and effect' could be easily understood.

And what did my dream portend? Was there some ominous sign of the villagers I saw?

I pondered for a long time, but didn't know how to explain about this dream. I only told Lingling:

"I dreamt of many tombstones, and many …" "Ghastly shadows wearing colorful clothes, and many ghostfire …"

While talking, I suddenly felt my calves start to feel cold, as though... There's something that's infiltrating...

This feeling almost made me jump up in shock as I hastily looked towards my lower leg.

Originally, I was immersed in that dreamscape, constantly recalling the contents from my dream.

Now that I suddenly had such a feeling, it naturally made me nervous.

When I look at my lower leg, my body is drenched in sweat.

At this moment, the bruises on my calves are still there, and they have been there for half a year.

Moreover, this period of time was extremely peaceful without any changes.

I didn't expect that at this moment, the bruised blood would actually change into a jet-black color. There were traces of it spreading, as though the poison was spreading through my body.

Looking at the jet-black legs, I was astonished. What was going on?

Just now, he had felt waves of ice-cold and stabbing pains in his calf from his dream. Could it be that this was the cause of the pain?

Then, if I were to think about it further, could it be that my entire dream was caused by this handprint?

After calming my hand for half a year, I was still unable to figure out what it was.

Even though I know that this thing hasn't disappeared for half a year, it definitely isn't that simple. It might be a hidden danger for my body.

At that time, Liu Qing had also seen the handprint on my leg. At that time, he seemed to be very curious, but he didn't tell me anything.

He didn't even know what this handprint was, let alone how to cure it …

The hand print had now turned black, but the uncomfortable feeling only lasted for a moment before it disappeared.

Could it be that this handprint will one day take my life?

I helplessly shook my head. It seemed that I should still read the Compendium of Evil Theurgy. Although this book is very strange, I can indeed learn a few things.

This point cannot be denied, if not for learning the Evil Theurgy Encyclopedia, I probably would have died on the mountain last night.

Looking at the sky, it was already late. I felt hungry.

She didn't actually wake up for long, but when she woke up, she noticed that my condition wasn't right, so she didn't dare to make any movements.

Now that I had woken up, and there was nothing weird about it, I started to say that I was hungry.

Just as I was about to open the door and go out to something to make dinner, I suddenly saw a long, green thing in front of my house!

It wiggled in front of my door and gave off a cold feeling...

Moreover, I seem to vaguely feel an aura coming from this thing …

Killing intent...

The cold killing intent was suffocating and terrifying...

Actually, this killing intent couldn't be considered to be particularly dense. It was mainly due to my mental state, as the person in front of me …

It was an azure-green snake that was slowly squirming in the snow by the door. It didn't seem to be afraid of the cold. It flicked its tongue and stared at me …

I've heard the stories of snakes' revenge from the elders. They said that snakes have intelligence. After you kill a snake, there might be many snakes that will come over to take revenge on you …

But... After all, this is just a village legend, and I've never really believed it.

However, looking at the scene before me right now, I seem to have killed a snake yesterday …
