Chapter 63: Terrifying Experience

~11 min read 2,062 words

Zhao Zhao Jingqiao, Cai Cai Jianming, Qian Kai.

The three Spirit Perception Realm practitioners had now invaded Li Yi's home, but the eerie things happening before their eyes left them frozen in place, unable to understand. The door they had just forced open had now disappeared, and not only that, blood was seeping out from the fist marks, palm prints, and footprints left on the ceiling.

And the blood was seeping out very quickly, staining the ceiling red. In less than ten seconds, the original ceiling was already covered in a creepy layer of fresh blood.

"Drip! Drip!"

The blood was viscous and began to drip down continuously. Some of the blood even landed on Zhao Zhao Jingqiao and the others.

They reached out to touch it and smelled it in front of their noses.

The fishy stench was pungent.

This eerie change gradually turned the unease in the three of them into an inexplicable fear.

"Damn it, what on earth is going on? Is it an illusion caused by a master's energy field interfering with my senses? Close your eyes immediately, don't look, use your spiritual perception to sense everything around you, and see what on earth is going on here," Zhao Zhao Jingqiao reacted first, and he closed his eyes immediately.

Because he knew that powerful practitioners all possessed spiritual energy. This spiritual power could interfere with other people's perception, making people have all kinds of hallucinations, and could also hypnotize enemies, which was very terrifying.

Once interfered with by spiritual energy, what the eyes see and the ears hear could all be fake.

As the three of them closed their eyes.

A special sensing ability emanated from each of them.

Relying on spiritual perception, the three of them could do without eyes, sensing the situation around them with just their bodies, and this kind of sensing could be more than what the eyes could see, and more accurate, like a kind of biological radar, which could scan the environment nearby. This ability was a talent bestowed upon them after their bodies evolved, and every practitioner who stepped into the Spirit Perception Realm would automatically master it.

As the spiritual perception spread.

Zhao Zhao Jingqiao was the first to sense the presence of his two companions, and then everything nearby began to appear in his perception: the ground, the walls, the ceiling. However, when his spiritual perception extended to the door, he found that the door had still disappeared, and it was still just a wall.

Besides that, the blood on the ceiling was still dripping down continuously.

Clearly, everything they had just seen wasn't an illusion; it was all real.

"How is this possible?" Zhao Zhao Jingqiao gritted his teeth, unable to accept such an incredible scene.

His spiritual perception continued to spread.

It extended into the room.

In the room, he sensed the medical pods, sensed Li Yi's father lying in the medical pod. These were all very normal and had no problems. But until his spiritual perception spread to the kitchen, a horrifying thing happened: in the dim kitchen, a human outline appeared in his perception.

"Found you."

At this moment, Zhao Zhao Jingqiao opened his eyes abruptly.

It wasn't just him; Cai Cai Jianming and Qian Kai also woke up immediately. The three of them stared fixedly at that dim kitchen.

However, in their vision, there was no one in the kitchen at all, only dimness and deathly silence.

But spiritual perception wouldn't lie.

Although they couldn't see it, that "person" was indeed standing in the kitchen.

"Are you Li Yi's mother? Give us a way out, and we can leave a huge compensation, and guarantee that we will never look for Li Yi's trouble again," Zhao Zhao Jingqiao spoke to the empty kitchen.

But in the kitchen, that invisible "person" didn't make any response.

On the ceiling, blood was still dripping down continuously, and the air was filled with a pungent fishy stench. This smell was becoming more and more intense; it was no longer the smell of blood, but more like a smell of decay—like... corpse stench.

"Thirty million. Let the three of us go. This is the largest sum of money I can come up with."

Zhao Zhao Jingqiao took a deep breath and said again. Although he had offered over one hundred million to Li Yi before, in reality, he didn't have that much money at all. Thirty million was already his limit.

But the surroundings were still deathly silent, and there was still no response from that dim kitchen.

The corpse stench in the air became more and more intense, making people want to vomit.

"What should we do?" Qian Kai's eyes revealed a look of panic.

He couldn't understand this kind of change in the surroundings, but at this moment, his spiritual perception was warning him frantically. A huge crisis was enveloping his whole body. If this crisis wasn't resolved, he even felt that he wouldn't be able to leave here alive today.

"Run. Go through the window."

Zhao Zhao Jingqiao, seeing that communication was impossible, gritted his teeth at this moment, rushed to the window, and jumped down from the third floor in one flip.

Cai Cai Jianming and Qian Kai followed immediately upon seeing this scene.

The third floor wasn't high. As practitioners, they landed steadily immediately, then burst out with amazing speed and ran wildly toward the outside of the complex.

They didn't even dare to look back, nor did they dare to hesitate, fearing that if they were a second late, they wouldn't be able to leave Li Yi's house.

Running wildly for twenty kilometers in one breath.

Until they were about to leave the old city district, the three of them stopped at a crossroads.

"Damn it, what on earth is going on in Li Yi's house? Is it really a stagnant one waking up? Why do I feel it doesn't quite look like it?" Qian Kai panted and couldn't help but curse.

Cai Cai Jianming was also still terrified: "Me too. What we faced just now didn't seem like a living person at all. That aura, and the feeling of spiritual perception warning frantically—it was just like the unknown terror encountered in the danger zone back then."

"Wait, let's not talk about other things first. The surroundings seem... not right." Zhao Zhao Jingqiao's pupils shrank abruptly at this moment. He looked up and surveyed everything around him.

The road was empty, there wasn't a single person nearby, the whole city was deathly silent, and the sky was dim and oppressive, with no sun to be seen.

At this moment, it seemed that only the three of them were left in the world.

"Why is it like this? Is it that something went wrong with the three of us, or has this world suddenly changed?"

Qian Kai stood on the empty road, turning around and looking around constantly. The fear in his eyes became more and more intense.

"Illusion, it must be an illusion. The three of us must still be in someone's spiritual energy field, and our senses have been interfered with," Cai Cai Jianming muttered: "In reality, we must still be in Li Yi's house. That 'person' doesn't want to let us leave at all. We've been targeted."

"Absolutely impossible. Our spiritual perception won't lie to us. Even a master above Spirit Perception couldn't have spiritual energy reach this level."

Zhao Zhao Jingqiao gritted his teeth, his heart inexplicably cold: "Li Yi's 'mother' has a big problem. All the weirdness comes from that person. No, I can't even be sure that thing is necessarily a person now."

"Who?"

Suddenly, Cai Cai Jianming sensed something. He looked toward a direction abruptly, and subconsciously fired a shot in that direction.

Bang!

The gunshot rang out, and the bullet hit a blurry human figure.

That person was hiding in the window of a shop on the side of the road, his figure hidden in the darkness. Even the eyes of a Spirit Perception Realm practitioner couldn't see his specific appearance clearly, and could only identify a human outline.

"Speak, who on earth are you?" Cai Cai Jianming stared fixedly at the figure. His hand holding the gun couldn't help but tremble slightly.

He definitely hit that shot.

But the other party had no reaction.

"I don't want to sit and wait for death. Let's fight." Qian Kai couldn't stand this eerie everything. He couldn't help but let out a low roar, his body moved, and he rushed straight toward that blurry figure.

"Qian Kai, don't be impulsive," Zhao Zhao Jingqiao shouted.

But it was already too late.

Qian Kai had already rushed into that dim shop. He gathered his strength and struck, sweeping with one leg, intending to crush that blurry figure.

However, the explosive strike of a Spirit Perception Realm practitioner had no effect at this moment. The powerful force was like a stone sinking into the sea, and that blurry figure didn't move at all.

"How could this be? Wait, there's someone else?" Qian Kai was stunned for a moment first.

But afterward, he seemed to have sensed something again, and raised a fist to smash toward the side abruptly.

Another blurry figure appeared in the darkness.

But although he hit it with one punch, the other party still didn't have the slightest wavering, just standing still in place. This scene was the same as just now.

Before he could be shocked, a heavy footstep came from the darkness behind him, approaching him quickly.

"Eye-strike." Qian Kai didn't hesitate at all. His pupils glowed, and he used the Eye-strike technique.

The darkness around seemed to be dispelled a little because of this eye-strike.

At this moment, Qian Kai saw everything around him clearly.

It was a pale and cold woman's face, and a pair of hollow, numb, and lifeless gray eyes... No, not just one pair, there were two pairs, three pairs, four pairs... There seemed to be countless pairs of such eyes staring at him in the darkness around.

Instantly.

His hair stood on end, and a sense of fear surged from the bottom of his heart, drowning his whole body.

Qian Kai wanted to run, but his body was now stiff in place, unable to move. He didn't know when a cold palm had reached out from the darkness behind him and rested on his shoulder. That palm had slender fingers and pale skin, just covered in faint corpse spots.

However, outside.

Zhao Zhao Jingqiao and Cai Cai Jianming only saw Qian Kai disappear completely into the darkness after rushing into that shop, and could no longer be seen.

Everything fell into deathly silence. There was no sound, and no movement of fighting.

This eerie scene made people feel inexplicably terrified.

Qian Kai was a Spirit Perception Realm practitioner. Even if he couldn't beat the other party and was taken down, he should have been able to make some noise.

Wait, there was movement.

Suddenly.

A moment later, a person appeared from the darkness.

It was Qian Kai who had disappeared before.

But at this moment, Qian Kai's face was pale, his eyes were hollow and lifeless, and a weird smile appeared at the corners of his mouth. He didn't say a word and beckoned to Zhao Zhao Jingqiao and Cai Cai Jianming, seeming to signal the two to come over.

Seeing this scene, the hearts of the two sank to the bottom instantly, their whole bodies were icy cold, and their eyes were full of despair.

At this moment, they also realized what kind of thing they had encountered.

A few minutes later.

In Li Yi's home, the door that had been forced open earlier closed slowly. In the room, in that empty medical pod, a sleeping woman had appeared at some point. Everything seemed to have returned to calm.

On the ceiling, the fist marks, footprints, and palm prints were still clearly visible, but no more blood flowed out.

However, the only thing slightly different from before was that a lingering shadow appeared on the wall next to it. That shadow looked like three people from afar, their figures twisted and their expressions terrifying.

And the three people, Zhao Zhao Jingqiao, Cai Cai Jianming, and Qian Kai, who had broken in here earlier, had disappeared completely. ===== CHAPTER 64 =====
