Chapter 141: Secret Harm, Sacrifice, Yin Spirit

The situation at Carrie's house was indeed not very good. Although this apartment looked okay, it seemed very old. Regarding this, Madison spoke bluntly. "Carrie, you have to move out of here as soon as possible."

"I just saw a rat. My god, the sanitary conditions here are too poor."

"Look, these twenty or so rooms on several floors, and it's actually just your family and a deaf person on the first floor. This place is too..."

Maria poked Madison hard, telling her to restrain her words.

Madison rolled her eyes but didn't say anything more.

Carrie smiled awkwardly. "Actually, there were quite a few tenants a couple of days ago; it's just that they've moved out one after another these past few days."

"I'm planning to do some odd jobs these days, and then move out with my mother."

"Carrie, Madison has a poisonous tongue, but she actually has no malicious intent." Maria hurriedly explained. Sue beside her frowned, looking at Madison.

"Mm, I know. I'll go get some tea for you guys."

After putting some fruit and snacks on the coffee table, Carrie walked out to get some water to heat up. Just as she walked out, she saw Amber walking toward her, holding a tray with several cups of tea on it.

"Aunt Amber."

"Auntie knew it wasn't easy to get water, so I sent it over for you first. I don't know if your friends like black tea, so I prepared various drinks and water. Have a good time." Amber smiled.

Carrie felt a bit moved, and at the same time felt a bit ashamed of her suspicion. After all, the other party had actually been quite friendly all along.

Suspecting others groundlessly like this made her look like a villain.

"Hurry and go in, don't keep your friends waiting." Amber smiled peacefully.

"Mm, thank you, Auntie."

Carrie brought the water in.

Watching Carrie walk back into the room, Amber exhaled, pursed her lips tightly, and muttered to herself in a low voice, "Sorry Carrie, but you are the designated main sacrifice. Sorry, sorry, sorry."

After three "sorries" in a row, she turned and returned to her room.

In her room, Amber went straight into the inner room and lifted a curtain. Inside, there was actually a secret room. The space wasn't large, only containing a table and a somewhat old stone box about half a meter in diameter. Around it were some lit candles, illuminating the dark space with a faint light, reflecting some moths.

And on the ground, there was shockingly a white male corpse!

Amber walked over, looking at her cousin, pain flashing in her eyes. She remembered what had happened before again.

This building actually didn't originally belong to her.

It belonged to two beastly brothers. Their father had dug up this box from a place in Mexico and performed a sacrificial ritual, wanting to restore his body to youth and extend his life. The two brothers, sensing danger, killed their father in advance and also inherited the box, also wanting to restore their injuries and youth. The sacrificial targets were the tenants who moved into the apartment.

Because she had smuggled over from Mexico at the time, she was unfortunately one of the tenants. In the midst of a struggle, her cousin, who had always cared for her, was killed by those two beasts while coming to save her.

Later, some things happened along the way. She smothered her mother in her hallucination, showing firm will and courage, which made the Moth God recognize and let her go. She also successfully counter-killed those two beasts and chose to replace the other party to become the servant of the Moth God in this stone box. As for why?

She wanted to resurrect her cousin.

Her cousin had family, had a happy life. It was because of her that everything today had happened. She couldn't let her cousin's wife and the others fall into a lifetime of grief. She had to atone for her sins.

But she was also worried about not being able to deal with strong men, so she set her targets on those bottom-tier women. They lived in hardship, and as long as there was a little help and low rent, they could be recruited continuously. And because they were women, their resistance was relatively weak, making them the best targets to attack.

As for whether they were innocent or not...

She didn't care anymore. Since she had already killed people, why bother labeling herself as righteous? And besides, she was a smuggler! She didn't like America!

Looking at her cousin, whose corpse remained elastic and didn't rot at all, Amber breathed rapidly. "Five more to go. Cousin, you will be resurrected soon. Five more..."

After saying this, she cast her gaze toward the corner.

There, a woman was shockingly lying unconscious.

But she didn't rush to sacrifice her. She prepared to see if Carrie's side had succeeded first.

She actually wasn't very worried about whether it succeeded or not, because with the medicine she had given and the Moth God's hallucination interference on the target, the success rate was still quite high. It was just that she preferred to be safe.

Amber walked out of the room, came to the left and right of Carrie's corridor, listened carefully to the sounds inside, and when she heard the sounds inside gradually weaken, she approached quietly, opened a crack in the door, and peeked inside.

She saw that Madison was already asleep on the sofa, and Carrie and Sue were also drowsy. Maria, on the other hand, looked only a bit tired.

Amber continued to observe, focusing on Carrie.

Because Carrie was quite special; this was the only special sacrifice the Moth God had actively requested her to capture. So, she paid a few more points of attention to Carrie.

At this time, an inexplicable force shrouded them. Amber knew this was the Moth God's power taking effect.

It would hallucinate the sacrifices chosen by the servant, making them fall into a beautiful illusion, gradually weakening their resistance, and finally making them willingly give up their lives.

At this moment in the room, Carrie and Sue, who were already a bit drowsy, immediately fell asleep. Maria sensed something was wrong, but...

*Snap! *

Maria also fell asleep with her head down.

*Creak—*

The door opened.

Amber walked in, walked in front of the four people, and looked at the kind and simple Carrie. Her lips moved. "Sorry."

After spitting out this word, it was as if she had built a psychological defense for herself, and everything was at ease.

Yes, I am a villain. I am sympathizing with you; this is not my original intention. I am also forced to do so!

Amber began to transport the four people. Because she had sacrificed over a dozen people, although most of them were used by her to resurrect her cousin, a portion was used by the Moth God to strengthen her body, so her strength was quite good.

Carrying Carrie and Madison, she began to head toward her room.

After she left.

Maria, who was lying on the table, suddenly opened her eyes. Her eyes were full of evil intent, and the corners of her mouth rose slightly. "Look, isn't it still up to me to save the situation? You loser."

It turned out that just now, when Maria felt sleepy, she sensed something was a bit wrong and didn't drink the tea anymore. The symptoms were relatively mild, but she still couldn't resist the moment the hallucination struck. She could only pretend to be asleep the moment before she lost consciousness, not alerting the enemy, and let Alan come out to solve all this.

"Tsk, what a bother. Ever since that Louis taught you some techniques, the restrictions on me have been too great. Fuck, just wait. Sooner or later..."

Alan took out her phone unwillingly, and at the same time moved Sue to the corner, starting to search for anything in the room suitable as a weapon.

Before falling asleep, Maria, the main consciousness, was worried about Alan doing something out of line, so she gave a few temporary orders. Now, Alan had to complete these few orders first.

Very quickly, she dialed Lunca's number. One had to admit, as the new student council president, the trust brought by this title was not to be underestimated. Although she had a better relationship with Emma, she still chose to call Lunca first.

Of course, maybe, perhaps, possibly, maybe it was because she was a bit jealous of Emma? So the actual relationship wasn't good?

After saying a few words simply, Maria heard footsteps coming from the corridor, immediately hung up the phone, and the corners of her mouth rose, revealing a wild laugh.

The black pupils were full of madness.

Licking her lips, she picked up a baseball bat.

She hid in the darkness.

On the other side, Lunca, who received the call, frowned. Although Maria's tone sounded a bit strange, she still went upstairs immediately.

Maria was Louis's future follower on the mystic side, and Madison was even more of an object of his attention. Although she didn't know what their future positioning was, Lunca, who considered herself Louis's best assistant, wouldn't ignore this point.

When she arrived upstairs, she keenly smelled a special scent. After sniffing with her nose, her face immediately turned dark. She hadn't heard the sound when she was waiting below, so she naturally understood what they were doing.

At the same time, she hesitated in her heart. Did Louis still have the strength to save people now? Should she just help call the police?

But Maria's mention of a suspected mystic event that could make people sleep made her hesitate again.

At this time.

Louis's voice came from inside the door. "Lunca? Is something the matter?"

Hearing the voice, Lunca replied, "Maria just called."

"She said..."

After simply repeating it once.

"Got it. Wait a moment."

"Good, I'll go notify the driver."

Lunca immediately ran downstairs.

Inside the house, Louis slowly concluded his cultivation.

At this time, Louis was already very different. Compared to the changes when his Qi Gong was perfected before, they were even more huge.

This wasn't a change in appearance, but a change in spiritual aura.

His whole body exuded inexplicable power.

Just sitting there, a temperament that made people submit arose spontaneously, especially those eyes, which were even more brilliant and soul-stirring, as if they really had some kind of power to strike directly at the heart.

Just by looking at him, you knew this person was not ordinary. Even if placed in a crowd, you could see him at the first moment. His presence was intense!

Louis blinked gently.

The next moment, a figure identical to Louis walked out of his body, solid as reality. This was the Yin Spirit!

The so-called Yin Spirit was a process where the soul moved toward substantialization and strengthening, gradually sublimating. In this process, the soul would gradually transform, possessing various incredible innate abilities, such as possession, object manipulation, dream entry, shuttle, etc.

It was also in this realm that one could serve as a Yin official or Earth Deity, from then on truly transcending the mundane.

Louis's Yin Spirit walked on the ground, picked up a glass of water but didn't drink it. Although he could touch things in this state, he couldn't eat or drink. Oh no, things related to the spirit could be, but they were easily affected.

Putting the water glass down, Louis felt the power circulating through his body. He reached out and pointed. A white light flashed by, and the fierce fire appeared almost simultaneously, and it appeared in the sky outside the window. In one breath, the fire seemed to have eaten an accelerant, expanding wildly.

In the blink of an eye, it surged upward like a pillar of fire reaching the sky, but the next moment it disappeared directly, as if it were an illusion, leaving no trace, leaving only some dark red clouds drifting in the sky. Those were fire clouds.

Louis looked at the scene with fascination. This was magic power, this was the technique under the blessing of magic power!

Yin Spirit Realm, internal Qi transformation, essence, Qi, and spirit condensed into magic power.

Magic power was the foundation of all techniques. Techniques without magic power were all side-path, rootless duckweed!

The enhancement of magic power to the body wasn't obvious, but the enhancement to techniques was extremely exaggerated. Just like just now, that was only the Fire-Manipulation Art; where did it have such power before?

It was a pity that the quantity wasn't large. Of course, compared to internal Qi, it wasn't small, it just seemed small relative to the experimental method before the breakthrough.

However, this didn't count for anything. After all, he had just broken through. As the realm got higher, the magic power would also get more and more.

He shook his head and continued to feel the various changes of the Yin Spirit.

Louis pointed his toes, and with a light leap, he was like flying, floating lightly from one end of the room to the other. In fact, Louis in this state could indeed fly, just not very fast.

Only when the soul was substantialized to a certain degree could one fly extremely fast in the night sky, at a speed that was unimaginable. This was the shuttle.

And the so-called substantialization was a manifestation of visualizing the Divine Lord Diagram to a certain degree, where mental power and willpower gradually became stronger, and the magic power was nurtured strongly enough to not fear sunlight after going deep inside. Before this, the initial Yin Spirit should have been very fragile, and might even have been injured by a gust of wind.

And now...

Louis's Yin Spirit paused and carefully extended a fingertip toward the dim sunlight spilling from the windowsill.

Sunlight fell on the fingertip.

It touched it.

Everything was the same.

It wasn't injured.

Louis's brow furrowed even tighter.

This isn't right! This is different from what was taught in the visualization diagram!

At this time, Louis felt a trace of heat.

"Still not right. The sun is the most rigid and Yang star. A Yin Spirit touching sunlight should be burned. If it touches a large area, it might even be burned to death directly. Now, how come it's been so long and I only feel a trace of scorching heat?"

Louis could only attribute this to the difference in worlds.

After all, according to the original rules, ordinary evil spirits shouldn't be able to move in the sun, or even manifest. But the evil spirits in America were different. Except for a few, it seemed that most evil spirits didn't fear sunlight.

Truly strange.

"Perhaps precisely because of this, the evil spirits in this place emerge one after another. This is a land unprotected by the sun," Louis thought to himself.

The first Yin Spirit exit shouldn't be too long, and there were things to do. Louis didn't continue to play, and with a turn of his heart, the Yin Spirit returned to his physical body.

A sense of peace arose spontaneously.

The physical body is truly the raft for crossing the world~
