The Spirit World

Chapter 18 Tragic Nightmare!
Boom!
The sound of heavy drums rang out in the center of the open-air theater's stage.

Boom!
It's like a shout that strikes the eardrums!
dong dong!

Like the sound of thunder!
dong dong!

Like the drumbeat of jade breaking in an empty mountain!
dong dong dong!dong dong dong!
It was like the roar of thousands of galloping horses! !

Erica in Chang Yufeng's arms began to disappear little by little. Chang Yufeng's tightly held hands felt extremely strange because there was no one around, as if she was hugging him.

Lin'er, who was holding him, also disappeared as if out of thin air.

"Erica!" he called!

"Lin'er!!" Chang Yufeng shouted their names in the crowd.

no respond.

He was not that panicked, but the fact that no one responded to his shouts filled his heart with a feeling of disappointment.

Then! The people around him began to disappear little by little, and Chang Yufeng realized that they had all turned into faceless shells.

"Who are you? What do you want?"

Chang Yufeng questioned the man wearing the Vulcan mask who was looking at him, and those shells passed through his body and disappeared without a trace.

Boom, boom, boom! The drums beat passionately.

The Vulcan Mask suddenly lost its shell, and only a ferocious mask floated in the air and drifted towards Chang Yufeng.

There was no answer, the surroundings became empty, and everything returned to darkness. Chang Yufeng had a familiar feeling coming over him. He remembered this piece of nothingness and darkness. It was in this darkness that he came to the spirit world.

Suddenly, the hideous mask rushed over and pounced on Chang Yufeng's face. He wanted to escape, but the mask hit his face hard and he couldn't escape at all. He was caught off guard and tore at the edge of the mask with both hands, bleeding profusely. He pushed and turned his body over, but it was useless. The mask seemed to have merged with him.

There was no way to get it off. Even if it was covered in blood, there was no way to get it off!

[Ah!!!] Chang Yufeng roared because of tearing off the mask! The Vulcan's mask was glaring, and at this time, it was looking at everything around it angrily, just like Chang Yufeng.

[Ah ang!!!] Chang Yufeng roared once again, but this time, his voice sounded like the Vulcan Mask itself screaming at the top of its lungs. That pale and deep voice made people tremble.

"Hey, Director, please stop crying." The voice of the thin aunt suddenly appeared. Chang Yufeng turned back abruptly, and the eyes behind the mask were as red as blood. The door of the welfare home was half-open, and the weak light shone into the darkness where Chang Yufeng was. Chang Yufeng quietly listened behind the door just like he did in the past.

But the thin aunt and the vice-president seemed to know of his presence and suddenly stopped talking. They looked at him quickly and in unison, their eyes glowing strangely green and their ferocious faces looked as if they wanted to eat him.

Chang Yufeng was so frightened that he fell to the ground. He got up and ran, but there was no way out in the darkness. He was so scared that he could only run wildly helplessly. The Vulcan mask on his face was wriggling, like bulging blue veins.

"Little master. Don't be afraid, I will protect you!" Chang Yufeng suddenly stopped, and he heard a gentle voice.

"Dada!" Chang Yufeng stopped, the wind and snow began to howl, and the white world was suddenly filled with darkness, loneliness and bitterness.

Dada was holding a baby. The armored octopus came furiously. Dada jumped, ran, and fought back without stopping. Chang Yufeng stood on the snow. The biting cold had begun to erode his body. His leg, which had been frozen into ice, had no feeling at all. He dragged his broken leg and tried to follow Dada, but Dada didn't seem to see him. He called Dada's name, but there was no response.

Soon, the crocodile seal was frozen and shattered in the snow. Its huge body stirred up thousands of snow waves. Dada ran wildly, and the blue magic wrapped around him like an air mass. Blood flowed from his legs and his eyes. But this time, he did not escape the avalanche. The charming red blood in the rising snow mist kept rolling.

"Do not!!!"

boom!
Everything returned to calm! On the white blood plain, Chang Yufeng was the only one left. He had been eroded by ice and snow and frozen into a ball. The shouting just now had used up most of his strength. The mask of the God of Fire was hideous and terrifying, and his red eyes were still scarlet.

He crawled towards the direction where Dada was buried. No! Not like that! Not like that! His frozen legs had already left his body, all alone behind him. He crawled hard, but the snowfield was swept away by the wind and snow, returning to a vast expanse of white. Everything was buried, intact as before.

Chang Yufeng lost his direction. He had no idea where Dada was buried. He looked around in confusion. More and more of his body was frozen. He was in agony and finally lost consciousness. Helpless and desperate, he was buried by the wind and snow!
The eyes of the Vulcan's mask glowed scarlet on the snow. For a moment, flames rolled, and the raging fire suddenly ignited everything around it.

"Ralfa!" A white-haired young woman was hugging the man beside her, and a baby was tightly held in her arms. Chang Yufeng was surprised to find that he was alive again, but the mask of the God of Fire was still firmly nailed to his face.

The raging fire burned him, and the flames hit everything he had. He saw that he was just like all the people struggling in the fire, with flames all over his body, burning his flesh and blood.

The purgatory on earth in my memory is burning myself!

Screams, shouts, and cries pierced his eardrums and struck his mind. In the last moment of his life, he vaguely saw a man and a woman looking at him with pity on the high hillside where the fire had not yet spread.

It is such a familiar yet unfamiliar face.

But there was a scarlet light shining from his eyes.

"My lord, my lord, this little ghost seems to be dead." The shrill voice of a weasel echoed in the cave.

"How is it possible? He should have woken up by now!" A slender, beautiful woman with short hair sat on a seat covered with countless strange masks. Her surprised expression made her beautiful face look a little hideous under the firelight. "My lord, I don't know either. This kid is really not breathing." The weasel begged for mercy in a shrill and piercing voice. Around it was an execution rack that looked like an execution rack used in a simulation mission. On it was tied the thin Chang Yufeng with a thick rope.

"Is this little ghost's fear enough to kill him?" The king was a little confused, and then looked at Chang Yufeng with some pity.

"It is better for humans who want to absorb spiritual power to be alive. If they are dead, their spiritual power cannot offset our demonic power, and it will cost us our lives. What a pity!" The king said with a little regret, and a white mask floated behind him. The black pattern decorated the mask into a weird ghost face.

"I knew the right measure, but in the end, he died like this. What a pity." The king played with the white ghost mask in his hand, and sighed with interest: "When will I meet another little ghost with strong spiritual power?"

"My king, it's okay. There is still that little girl with pure magic power. I will catch her for you right away." The weasel walked away in shame.

【Moose Village Trail】

"Sister Lin'er, why has my brother been gone for so long and hasn't come back yet?" The evening glow shone on Erica's little face, making her look red.

"Maybe they are lost, let's go check." Lin'er held Erica's hand and walked. They went to the direction where Chang Yufeng went, where there was a stream, and Chang Yufeng went there to find water for Erica to drink. She was thirsty because she had eaten a pineapple bread, and she insisted on drinking water in a fit of anger.

"Brother won't get lost, he's really good." Erica said with some pride. Although her brother is sometimes unreliable, he knows the environment here very well, and getting lost is definitely unlikely to happen.

"Well, Brother Yufeng, no, Brother Jack is really awesome." Lin'er also agreed.

"Yeah, yeah! Let's go check it out!"

The two walked in the dusk, happily wanting to see the person they had been waiting for for a long time.

In the darkness, Chang Yufeng could not feel any of his own consciousness. This time, he did not even see himself in the darkness. But he vaguely felt that someone was watching him.

"You're finally back." The deep voice echoed.

"Who are you? Where is this?" Chang Yufeng shouted.

"After ten years, I finally waited for this day!" The deep voice was accompanied by a smile.

【Buzz】

A golden light appears!

A black goldfish was looking at him with its huge eyes open, and Chang Yufeng found himself like a glowing sphere. It wasn't that the goldfish was so big, but that he had become so small.

Afterwards, the golden light disappeared again, and everything was pitch black. Chang Yufeng could feel the goldfish swimming around him, and he even felt a little happy.

【Come on, let the world feel our pain! 】

[Buzz!] The golden light flashed again, and Chang Yufeng saw himself again, but what followed was the bloody mouth of the goldfish.

Everything black, everything black-cut.

Everything returned to darkness.

Chang Yufeng would soon be able to see again because the black goldfish spit out the golden ball again. He didn't know what had happened.

[Damn it! It still can’t transform! ]

Transfiguration? What transformation?
The terrifying scene just now happened again, making Chang Yufeng feel that it was just a false alarm and he had escaped death!

[You said all those nice words! Damn it!]

"Great! It was a dream! I was scared to death! Phew~"

Just as Chang Yufeng was touching his body to repeatedly confirm whether he was alive, the black goldfish stared at him with its big eyes.

"what!!!"

In an instant, he fainted.

There was chaos in the Void Box.

[Damn it! How long do I have to wait! ]

Don't be afraid! My little master!
