Chapter 11: The Terrifying Ghost Domain

~8 min read 1,454 words

This Zui Xiang Lou is divided into four floors.

The first floor is where ordinary guests come; they are all commoners and penniless scholars with no money.

The second floor is for various high-ranking officials and nobles; the young women there are all as beautiful as flowers and jade, one could even say they are as beautiful as celestial beings, not comparable to the first floor.

As for the third floor, it is a place for various special ways to play, such as... It can be said that it is almost dancing on the edge of the limits of human imagination.

As for the fourth floor? It is not open.

At least that is the excuse given by Zui Xiang Lou.

Li Heng walked into the first floor and looked around; it was a very spacious hall, with women dressed in flashy clothes greeting guests.

Once the guests who came there caught someone's eye, they would start hugging and cuddling, and finally, they would go straight into a private room.

It can be said that it is quite direct.

Li Heng could not help but shake his head; this first floor truly lacks refinement, how is doing this directly any different from animals?

It seems that even in this aspect, class is separated.

He was not wearing his Demon Exorcist uniform at this time, but had changed into a set of everyday clothes.

He wore a black satin robe, with silver hollowed-out hibiscus flower trim peeking from inside the robe. He wore a jade belt at his waist and held an ivory folding fan, like a refined young gentleman in a corrupt world.

"This young master, I wonder which young lady has caught your eye? Or perhaps, you wish to head to the second floor to see our Zui Xiang Lou's top courtesan, Miss Ruyin?"

A pimp approached and said respectfully.

Although Li Heng was dressed very casually now, and his robe did not have a certain level of defensive power like the Demon Exorcist uniform, it was still not something commoners could afford to wear.

In the eyes of this pimp, he was either rich or noble.

"Let's go, head to the second floor."

Li Heng closed his fan and said indifferently.

He could feel that the Weird was nearby.

"This young master, you have come to the right place."

"Our Zui Xiang Lou is known to everyone in Bei'an City, standing shoulder to shoulder with the Qingyin Lou in the city."

Sensing that this was Li Heng's first time here, the pimp could not help but boast, bragging about everything. By the end, he even claimed they were as beautiful as celestial beings and could be called the best in Beijun.

Li Heng ignored him.

He carefully observed the aura around him.

That Weird was getting closer and closer, as if it were approaching him? He chuckled in his heart; it seems he had been discovered.

He stepped onto the second floor.

Instantly, Li Heng felt the surrounding aura become cold and incomparably silent, as if he had stepped into a Ghost Domain.

He raised an eyebrow, and the Qi and Blood within his body began to circulate.

He took another step, stomping heavily on the floor, causing the surrounding floorboards to collapse and sink, creating a tremor. If he were to step again, he would likely fall to the first floor.

However, this stomp, combined with the scorching Yang Qi from his erupting Qi and Blood, directly dispersed the cold aura completely.

But the pimp seemed to notice nothing, still continuously introducing the wonders of their Zui Xiang Lou to Li Heng, such as role-playing, what kind of props they had, and so on.

But Li Heng knew that this was merely a probe.

Sure enough, the cold aura appeared abruptly, filling the surroundings; the lights suddenly dimmed, the entire second floor became silent, and even the pimp disappeared.

It was as if no one had ever existed at all.

Li Heng was not surprised; instead, he raised his eyebrows.

It really is a big fish; this Weird actually possesses a Ghost Domain? It seems there will be a great harvest of Source Power this time.

A so-called Ghost Domain is a Weird's special territory. A Weird can move freely within its own domain, exert abilities that cannot be unleashed in Reality, and even distort Reality.

A Weird that possesses a Ghost Domain.

That is the nightmare of ordinary martial artists; there are even rumors that such a Weird cannot be eliminated unless by a Transcendental Family!

Li Heng could feel the flow of Qi and Blood in his body beginning to slow down, even becoming sluggish.

Is this the suppression of power by a Ghost Domain?

He pondered in his heart, yet he was not panicked in the slightest. Although he was not a True Qi Realm Grandmaster who could tear through a Ghost Domain with his own True Qi, his object of Visualization was the Great Sun.

The head of all supreme Yang in Heaven and Earth!

On the fourth floor of Zui Xiang Lou, in Shangguan Yan's boudoir.

At this moment, she was using a Bagua Mirror to spy on everything inside the Ghost Domain, smiling sweetly.

She had thought it was some big trouble. It turned out to be merely someone in the Nurturing Essence Realm; it was a waste that she had let Wang Hai use the Ghost Domain.

This was somewhat like using a butcher's knife to slaughter a chicken.

Wang Hai was the name of that Temple Keeper Weird while he was alive.

However, after she saw Li Heng's appearance clearly, her eyes lit up, and she suddenly felt that it was not too much of a loss.

Shangguan Yan sighed in her heart, revealing an infatuated expression.

Such a handsome man, if he were to die without having intimate relations with her, wouldn't that be a great pity?

She immediately gave an order to the Temple Keeper Weird through the Slave Seal.

She told him to capture Li Heng alive.

Shangguan Yan felt a burning sensation in her heart.

She wanted to press such a handsome man beneath her, have him lick her toes, and become a boy toy kneeling under her pomegranate skirt.

Sure enough.

Heaven truly favored her; she had just obtained a useful tool, and now another handsome boy toy had arrived.

Li Heng walked on the second floor, which had already been reduced to a Ghost Domain.

He knocked on the surrounding wooden walls; they were incomparably hard. Clearly, this was the isolation effect of the Ghost Domain.

Otherwise, with his strength, he could easily smash through the surrounding walls and walk straight out of this Ghost Domain.

To put it in vivid terms.

It is like an indestructible scene in a Terror game.

The protagonist is trapped in a Terror room, able to see the scenery outside through the window, but unfortunately, they cannot break it.

Of course, this is only in terms of pure strength.

Li Heng estimated in his heart that if he were to unleash the Great Sun True Fire, or perform Visualization of the Great Sun, manifesting the might of the Sun.

This Ghost Domain would be as fragile as paper.

After all, what he visualizes is the Great Sun, the very Sun that hangs high in the sky and brings vitality to all things; its status is extremely high, how could a mere minor Weird compare to it?

Suddenly, this Ghost Domain underwent a change.

From the ceiling, countless ropes with loops hung down, emitting a chilling aura, attempting to snare Li Heng's neck and strangle him to death.

Seeing this scene, Li Heng frowned. Is this trying to hang him?

That would indeed match the way Cao Hong died back then.

He employed his movement technique, continuously dodging these ropes.

However, these ropes seemed to have intelligence, constantly appearing around him and even beginning to track him.

Li Heng felt a bit of a headache; in this Ghost Domain, these ropes were likely capable of Infinite generation.

Moreover, he had just tried it; these ropes were very tough, and with a single tug, he actually could not break them.

At this moment, a cold wind suddenly rose behind Li Heng, and a figure lunged at him, wanting to tackle him to the ground. However, he gracefully shifted his body and dodged this pounce.

"Are you the main culprit? You don't look like it; the level of Terror is too low. It seems you are just an appendage of that Weird."

He smiled faintly and looked at that figure.

However, when he clearly saw the face of that figure, Li Heng fell silent.
