Chapter 194: Evil Spirit Unleashed (Please Subscribe)
"Sorry... Aaron."
Liliyat felt as if she were a little white rabbit being watched by countless wild beasts. Tugging at Aaron's sleeve, she said, "I shouldn't have exposed myself... but don't worry, I am of the direct bloodline of Sotos. That Evil Spirit will definitely come for me first, and when that happens, you run quickly!"
In her view, she belonged to the Diji of the Sotos Family, and while Aaron also had a pair of purple eyes, it was unknown how distant a collateral branch he was.
In terms of the closeness of blood relations, the Evil Spirit would definitely come for her first!
By then, Aaron would have a chance to escape.
"You are truly brave!"
Aaron praised her, while inwardly thinking: 'But why do I feel like you're about to cry from fear? Although... this was also my psychological suggestion, making you expose yourself. After all, once I leave, the identity of a Sotos bloodline will at least allow those people to try their best to protect you until the final layer...'
The Evil Spirit—Aokelaier!
Liliyat was almost suffocating.
He saw it...
He arrived before a cliff and opened a secret chamber.
At this moment, she was no longer protected by those Non-human Existences!
"Giggle... I'll lure it away... you run!"
On the massive Bridge of the Dead, cracks began to appear.
Without creating an opportunity to be alone, Aaron could not release Aokelaier at all.
Immediately, the void rippled faintly, and the figure of Aokelaier, draped in a Scarlet cloak, emerged.
Qikatiluo's expression was slightly dazed, letting the bone powder in his claws scatter to the ground.
Just at this moment, he heard a roar from ahead, and a massive ball of flame and Light formed.
"This... this is a trap! Aokelaier's ashes will actually cause the Bridge of the Dead to collapse directly?"
"This place... seems to have been cursed in advance; one won't die from the fall."
In mid-air, dark red mist writhed hazily.
Crack!
Crack!
Aaron said softly, "If my guess is correct, the gate leading to the next layer down is not in Aokelaier's main Lingmu, but right here in this great canyon!"
Crack!
"I don't know..."
He tilted his head, looked toward a certain direction, and a smile curled at the corners of his mouth.
She felt the violent sound of wind in her ears, her heart filled with despair: "It's over... even if I'm not crushed to death by the falling rocks of the bridge this time, I'll be smashed into a meat patty... this way of dying is not ladylike at all..."
"It could only fool Liliyat; if any other Non-human Existence were present, it would be exposed on the spot..."
Whoosh!
"Light!"
The next instant, its figure vanished in an instant.
Kasuluo's voice changed slightly in pitch.
"What is going on?"
The white radiance was swallowed up by a layer of dark red. Sasuluofei, the 'Sun Tutor' and a high-ranking Lamp Bearer of the Sunset School, stood blankly in place. The remaining skin on his face suddenly peeled away piece by piece, his metal skeleton melted, and a crimson core was revealed in his chest.
Liliyat's teeth chattered; she managed to speak, but could not move.
"No... Mr. 'Rapier'..."
And at this moment, the group was exactly in the middle of the bridge!
"The bridge is collapsing... run!"
Finally, the massive bridge, like foam, exploded and collapsed with a roar!
Those white giant stones disintegrated in mid-air just like foam, absorbed by the mist.
"As for the high-ranking Evil Spirits in the Invisible Cult, they clearly still have their sanity. How could they possibly be the same as a guy like Aokelaier who died hundreds of years ago and has long since fallen into evil? Anyone with a bit of common sense in Occultism would know it's impossible!"
"This voice... is it Sasuluofei?!"
Aaron took a deep breath, his expression grave, stroking an iron-black ring on his hand.
"The greatest danger of the Third Layer Lingmu... the Evil Spirit... Aokelaier?"
"Ah!"
"Alright, another identity is complete. In the future, when 'Rapier' appears again, I can use the mask of 'a poor guy who was unfortunately possessed by an Evil Spirit'... even if people investigate and find that 'Rapier' is Aaron Yugesi, it won't matter..."
He wore complex and gorgeous ancient court attire, had a pair of purple and bloodthirsty eyes, and his body was covered in wounds of all sizes.
Aaron unhurriedly put on another 'Ring of Power of the Green Forest', the smile on his face gradually becoming rich: "Next... the most exciting part of the play is finally about to begin!"
In the darkness.
It seemed her thoughts had invited misfortune; amidst the churning dark red mist, a phantom slowly emerged.
But it was already too late.
"Ahhh!"
The thick dark red mist all around instantly surrounded this place, forming a dead zone of curses and silence.
Boom!
Sipeite had long since transformed into his white-bone monster form. In this form, even if he fell from a great height, he would at most be severely injured: "However... I must still rendezvous with Lord Qikatiluo as soon as possible."
In just the blink of an eye, this Non-human Existence of the Fourth Primordial Substance had died!
Aaron took off the Shadow Ring from his hand.
"Oh!"
Upon the deathly pale bridge deck, countless spiderweb-like cracks emerged, extending far and wide toward both sides.
Qikatiluo let out a roar.
A look of shame appeared on Liliyat's face, and she was even more puzzled: "Would that ancestor of the Legend Count be a benevolent person?"
The Evil Spirit of 'Aokelaier' lunged at Aaron, bursting apart like a soap bubble.
A flash of confusion crossed Liliyat's eyes.
Liliyat screamed and hugged Aaron while in mid-air.
Judging by the mutations in the previous two layers of the tomb, it doesn't seem like it at all!
"... Perhaps that ancestor wishes for us to head to his tomb chamber... to do something..."
Sipeite slowly lurked forward.
"Hmm, we must also bring enough Offering... If the Bridge of the Dead is not a trap, then the true danger will arrive very soon."
The next moment, Liliyat watched in a daze as the Evil Spirit of Aokelaier rushed toward Mr. Rapier as if a dog had seen a bone.
"What a moving display of kinship."
The face beneath Liliyat's mask was already full of tears.
Amidst a great number of screams, except for the very few Extraordinary individuals with the ability of Flight, most people fell into the deep darkness of the underground canyon!
"Ahhh!"
"Have you finished screaming yet?"
Aaron explained with amusement and set Liliyat down.
Liliyat was so frightened that her face turned pale.
"You scared me to death; it turns out this mechanism can't actually kill people by falling..."
"Ancestor, wishes for us to go forward?"
She opened her eyes and looked around in surprise, discovering that she was being held by Aaron, and the two of them were in an underground location.
"White Dove... you are a good person."
These powders came into contact with the bridge deck, instantly causing huge cracks to appear on the bridge body.
He struck a pose of heroic sacrifice, ran rapidly into the darkness, and even whistled at the Evil Spirit.
That's right, this so-called Evil Spirit is just a Shadow...
Aaron took a deep breath at this moment, as if gathering his courage, and revealed a warm smile: "I won't let you die..."
Sasuluofei sneered and was about to continue speaking, but his expression suddenly changed.
Suddenly, an impatient voice entered Liliyat's ears.
She was both moved and very puzzled: "Why... did the Evil Spirit rush over so impatiently the moment it saw Mr. Rapier... Could it be... that his bloodline is even purer than mine?"
Yagebu looked at Qikatiluo, who was walking at the very front, in shock and anger.
In that spot, only the figure of an Evil Spirit draped in a Scarlet cloak remained.
Sipeite's pupils constricted, and he ran for his life without looking back...
