213. Chapter 213: It's Here

"Lin Yue, don't get close to Li Yi. The current Li Yi is possessed by a fierce ghost and could become an enemy at any time."

Zhao Lingfu hurriedly stopped Lin Yue at this moment, preventing her from getting close to Li Yi.

At this moment, everyone stared at Li Yi, their expressions exceptionally solemn, fearing that Li Yi would become the previous Liu Yan in the next moment and then start a massacre.

"Zhang Lei, I think it's better to kill Li Yi along with the fierce ghost in his body now to completely solve this crisis and avoid a fierce battle next. Our current states are all very bad, and we have no energy to continue fighting." Gu Mengping suddenly spoke at this moment, proposing a suggestion.

As soon as this was said, everyone looked at him in unison.

"Shut up." Zhang Lei shouted abruptly, interrupting his words.

Kill Li Yi?

Although this suggestion sounded good, if they really dared to act, the aftermath would be endless. Not only would the Investigation Bureau lose its heart and prestige, but they would be fighting among themselves now. By then, even if the mission was completed, the impact produced would be impossible to eliminate forever. After all, the current Li Yi was a teammate and the main force in dealing with Liu Yan.

Gu Mengping shrugged and said: "I just made a suggestion. Why is the Captain angry?"

"I really hope you were the one possessed just now. If that were the case, I would definitely finish off you and that fierce ghost together." Lin Yue stared at Gu Mengping, revealing hostility in her eyes.

"If I were possessed, I wouldn't have any opinion if you really wanted to kill me." Gu Mengping said.

"Whether Li Yi is possessed, it's too early to say this now. Let's see the situation in a while. If Li Yi is fine, that's naturally the best. But if he is really possessed, Lin Yue, you also have to be prepared to accept the fact that Li Yi is already dead. By then, we must act against Li Yi. I hope you will be rational and don't stop us."

Li Shaoqing stood out at this moment and said.

Others also fell silent upon hearing this. Although they didn't express their opinions, they also agreed with Li Shaoqing's statement.

If Li Yi was successfully possessed, then Li Yi would no longer be Li Yi and must be killed.

"Don't worry, Li Yi won't be possessed. That fierce ghost picked the wrong target. Among everyone present, only Li Yi is the most special." Lin Yue said coldly at this moment.

"Oh, why do you think so?" Li Shaoqing was somewhat curious at this moment.

Why was Lin Yue so certain? What was the reliance for this?

"I don't want to explain so much now. However, you will know the reason by then." Lin Yue said, because she couldn't explain the existence of Li Yi's mother.

As long as she said it out loud, she would be targeted by her. That feeling was definitely not something this fierce ghost could compare to. Therefore, she was very certain that Li Yi absolutely couldn't have any trouble. His weird mother behind him wouldn't allow a fierce ghost to possess Li Yi and kill him. If Li Yi were to die in the future, he would most likely die at the hands of his weird mother.

Lin Yue had actually been investigating this matter, but she had checked a lot of information and asked many people, but she never had a clue. Even her teacher couldn't answer this kind of thing.

Therefore, she could only accompany Li Yi to play dumb, pretending not to know about his mother's existence, to avoid that potential danger appearing again.

"I hope Li Yi can be fine and survive this hurdle." Zhang Lei said.

And just as everyone was waiting.

Li Yi's consciousness had been eroded at this moment. He felt that a strange and dangerous person had forcibly occupied his body. He couldn't resist the whole process and could only let the other party do whatever they wanted, while he himself was like a bystander, pulled by a force, actively giving up the dominance of his body.

This feeling was very bad. He had tried to resist, but it was of no avail.

"If this continues, I'm afraid I will die." A thought popped up in Li Yi's mind.

But strangely, he didn't feel fear.

Perhaps it was because he had already lost control of his body, and he had lost the emotion of fear.

"The old man advises you to better change to someone else to possess. This person carries a curse and is born evil. You won't get any benefits from possessing him; instead, you will bring great disaster because of it. Leaving now is still in time." Suddenly, the remnant in the knife coin emerged and let out a sigh, seemingly feeling sorry for the other party.

"You are still... alive?" A hoarse and intermittent voice came. The fierce ghost didn't seem to have completely lost its reason and recognized the knife coin.

"The old man has long been dead. My current state is the same as yours; both are a wisp of obsession that hasn't dissipated, and I won't be able to survive for long. It's just that the old man is different from you. You are willing to degenerate and cultivate in the demonic state, but the old man follows the destiny of heaven and is unwilling to create boundless slaughter, waiting for the moment of soul dissipation."

The remnant in the knife coin said.

"Why are you still alive? You should die."

"You should die. You are the one who harmed me."

"Kill you, I want to kill you."

That hoarse voice was very crazy, and the emotion was very agitated at this moment. It couldn't wait to eliminate the remnant in the knife coin, as if the two had an irreconcilable deep hatred when they were alive, and didn't want to let the other party go even after they died.

"How pitiful. After cultivating in the demonic state, you are about to lose even the last trace of reason. In your state, even if you succeed in possessing this evil kid, you won't be able to remain clear-headed anymore. Every person's body has the obsession of the original owner. The more times you possess, the more obsessions you have. In the end, you are no longer you."

The remnant in the knife coin said calmly.

"I don't care, I want to kill you." That hoarse voice revealed a very deep obsession. Even if he died and his consciousness was lost, he still wanted revenge.

"Before wanting to kill the old man, you better take care of yourself first. Dead people can't take revenge... Don't talk anymore, the main owner is here. The old man is going to retreat."

Suddenly, the remnant in the knife coin disappeared quickly. He seemed to have sensed something and didn't dare to show his head again, fearing that he would be targeted by that terrifying thing like last time, and in the end, he wouldn't get any benefits, but would die inexplicably.

At the same time.

? co

All the cultivators who were waiting in full battle array, guarding against Li Yi being possessed, sensed something at this moment. Their Spirit Perception warned crazily, and a terrifying sense of crisis instantly enveloped everyone's heart. This feeling even exceeded everyone's limit of endurance for a time, many times more terrifying than when confronting Liu Yan before.

"What's going on?"

Everyone's eyes revealed a trace of panic. They searched everywhere, but found nothing. There was no discovery in the surroundings.

But Spirit Perception wouldn't lie. There must be a very dangerous and terrifying thing appearing in the surroundings, which was why they had this feeling.

Was Li Yi completely successfully possessed?

No.

No, this feeling was different from just now.

Drip, drip, drip!

Suddenly.

Drops of rainwater were dripping down from the pitch-black sky at this moment, making a slight sound when they landed on the ground.

It's raining?

Everyone was startled, then looked up.

Immediately, the pupils of the cultivators present shrank abruptly.

It wasn't rain; it was blood!

Drops of fresh blood dripped down, the quantity changing from few to many, from sparse to dense. The air was also gradually filled with a pungent smell of blood. This smell of blood was not the smell of fresh blood, but a sticky, deteriorated smell of blood, carrying a kind of indescribable fishy smell.

"What's going on? How could it be like this for no reason?" Zhang Lei was both shocked and fearful. He had never encountered such a scene in his life.

Blood rain from the sky?

"Daoist Priest Pete, contact the headquarters and see what the helicopter monitoring at the headquarters has discovered." Zhang Lei then said immediately.

"All signals are lost. I am powerless." Daoist Priest Pete frowned and stroked his beard at this moment. As a person who practiced Dao, he had already smelled the aura of evil.

Swish, swish!

Not only was the signal lost, but even the lights in the residential building that couldn't be bombed just now seemed to be interfered with by some mysterious power and began to flicker.

Li Shaoqing, Gu Mengping, Zhao Lingfu, and other Spirit Perception Realm cultivators quickly took out their mobile phones and took a look.

As a result, the phone screens flickered constantly. Not only was there no signal, but there was no way to use them at all.

"It's here." At this moment, Lin Yue suddenly bit her lip and said slowly with strong unease.

It's here?

Who is it?

Everyone was startled, then remembered what Lin Yue said before. She just said that Li Yi was very special and wouldn't be possessed and killed by that fierce ghost. Could it be that this kind of incomprehensible supernatural phenomenon was the special thing Lin Yue mentioned?

The blood rain became more and more sticky.

At this time, the air was no longer a fishy smell, but emitted a strong corpse smell.

The surroundings were terrifyingly quiet.

This was very unusual.

Because there had always been helicopters hovering over the Old City District, and there were various searchlights shining, but now, they couldn't see the helicopters hovering and dancing in the sky, and they couldn't even hear the sound of the propellers turning. Even the lights of the city in the distance had disappeared, and there was only darkness nearby.

That darkness was terrifyingly thick, and even the eyes of evolvers couldn't see through it, like a hellish abyss that could easily swallow people.

"Damn it."

Li Shaoqing's hands were trembling slightly. Even in his heart, he couldn't help but breed strong fear. At the same time, his intuition told him that he couldn't stay here anymore; otherwise, something very terrible would definitely happen.

However, it wasn't a question of whether he wanted to stay or not, but that he had no way to go.

The streets all around were shrouded in darkness. He believed that if he ran away directly, he would definitely not be able to walk out of the Old City District and would most likely get lost in some unknown place and disappear forever.

This feeling wasn't just him; other cultivators had it too.

Therefore, even at this time, no one dared to run, and they could only bite their teeth and freeze in place, waiting for the end of some change.

"Lin Yue, what exactly do you know? What exactly happened to Li Yi?" Gu Mengping, in addition to fear, couldn't help but shout and ask.

Everyone else also looked at her, hoping to get an answer from her, even if this answer was not friendly to them.

"I don't know, and I can't say..." Lin Yue's face was also very ugly. She shook her head, not daring to reveal half a word.

"Don't know and can't say?"

Li Shaoqing smiled at this moment: "What a truly terrifying existence; even mentioning it is a taboo. I think I understand a little now. Everyone, pray that you can survive tonight safely. Don't even think about running or resisting; this kind of existence is no longer something a Spirit Perception Realm cultivator can confront. Its level of terror is absolutely extraordinary."

Everyone felt a chill in their hearts and roughly understood

"Look, the sky is... shrouded in corpses." Suddenly, Yu Chuan, who had fallen to the ground with severe injuries, turned pale and looked at the sky in terror.

At this moment, everyone looked up again.

Their pupils contracted sharply, and their hearts seemed to stop for a beat.

The original sky was now filled with countless corpses. These corpses were entangled with one another, crisscrossing to weave a dense, impenetrable web that covered the sky and blocked their view. Moreover, that viscous blood was dripping down from those very corpses. Most bizarrely, those corpses seemed to be alive.

With dull, hollow eyes wide open and mouths agape, they seemed to be in immense pain, squeezing and writhing against each other, emitting a creaking sound as if their bones were being crushed and broken. Yet, even so, the corpses remained tireless.

"What the hell is going on?"

Everyone felt their perception of reality had been overturned. Those endless corpses covering the sky would be enough to become a nightmare for the rest of their lives, impossible to forget as long as they lived.

"Heh, hehe, it must be an illusion, it must be an illusion." Someone's mental state was on the verge of collapse, and they let out a hysterical laugh at this moment.

Yet they wished it were an illusion.

But whether it was the eyes of the evolved or their perception, everything told them this was no illusion; it was all real.

"Li Yi!"

Gu Mengping lost his composure and roared, then charged straight toward Li Yi, who was stunned and lost in thought.

He felt that Li Yi was the root of all this; if he could be dealt with, perhaps this could all end.

"Gu Mengping, stop right there!" Zhang Lei was furious; he realized what Gu Mengping seemed to be planning.

"Pete."

He shouted again.

Daoist Pete had been Zhang Lei's partner for a long time and understood his meaning instantly. He raised the sniper rifle in his hand without hesitation.

Bang!

The gunshot rang out.

This shot wasn't meant to kill Gu Mengping, but to stop him.

Gu Mengping sensed the bullet and woke up instantly, stopping in his tracks.

The bullet landed in front of him, blocking his advance.

"If you act rashly again, I'll have Pete take you out." Zhang Lei glared, his killing intent surging, showing Gu Mengping no respect at all.

"If Li Yi doesn't die, none of this can end. I'm doing this for everyone's sake. Do you want to stand here and wait for death?"

Gu Mengping was both shocked and afraid, his whole body trembling. At this moment, he could feel those entangled corpses in the sky staring at him with their hollow eyes.

This feeling was chilling.

No one could remain calm under such pressure.
