The Terror of the Heavens Begins with Gu

Chapter 36 The Living Fall

Lights flicker.

Li Zhen in front of the evil demon statue seemed to have turned into a motionless sculpture.

The only sound in the entire room was the occasional soft squeaking sound of red-eyed bats.

The expression on the face of the six-armed evil god statue seemed to become even more weird.

……

When it was bright outside, the red-eyed bat struggled to get up from the black blood clot, its two blood-red eyes opened, its light red hair stretched out, and it exuded an arrogant and ferocious aura.

The ferocious face on the back is lifelike, as if there is a real face embedded in the skin of the red-eyed bat, which makes it even more ferocious.

It opened its mouth wide as if yawning, revealing two sharp fangs.

"Squeak!"

As the strange cry was uttered, all the ceramic vessels used to hold tributes in the room exploded.

An evil light flashed in the eyes of the six-armed evil god statue, and it began to shake violently, with a faint strange sound coming from within.

With a flap of its wings, the red-eyed bat disappeared on the spot.

When it reappeared, it was standing on top of the six-armed evil god statue, and its huge wings completely covered the head of the evil god statue.

A pair of red eyes flashing with blood looked around, as if inspecting his own territory.

The six-armed evil god statue no longer shook.

The red-eyed bat stopped looking and fixed its gaze on Li Zhen, with bloodshot eyes beginning to surge.

At this moment, Li Zhen slowly opened his eyes.

In his pupils, he could clearly see the bat face of the six-armed evil god statue.

It is not the appearance obscured by the red-eyed bat, but a complete bat face.

At this moment, Li Zhen's aura was surprisingly similar to that emitted by the six-armed bat-faced evil god statue.

Even if you just see Li Zhen, you can feel the pure evil and viciousness from him.

It seemed as if he was the very embodiment of "evil", radiating his undisguised malice to all around him at all times.

Everyone will hate and fear this kind of aura.

But the red-eyed bat would not do that. Instead, it felt closer to Li Zhen.

Fluttering its wings silently, it flew onto Li Zhen's outstretched right hand.

The unruly and fierce red eyes met a pair of malicious eyes.

The vision kept exchanging, and Li Zhen clearly felt that the other party was submitting to his will.

This time, Li Zhen did not feel any oppression from the red-eyed bat.

He stretched out his other hand and touched the red-eyed bat's head.

The red-eyed bat shook its head and did not resist.

"We are not accepted, but...we sympathize with each other?" Li Zhen looked into the eyes of the red-eyed bat and said in a hoarse voice.

The eyes of the red-eyed bat have changed a lot compared to before. There seems to be endless blood light flashing in them. Just one look at it and your mind will be drawn in.

The "Demon Devourer" section only says that the bat will undergo a transformation after devouring an evil ghost. The more evil the ghost, the greater the probability of transformation. It does not say that after the transformation, the red-eyed bat will have some new abilities.

Perhaps it was because Magusu's sect had never let this evil creature devour a particularly terrifying ghost, or perhaps it was because the inheritance Li Zhen had received was incomplete...

As long as it devours more evil spirits, it will definitely undergo greater changes...

The red-eyed bat rubbed against Li Zhen's arm to show affection.

Its eyes had no effect on Li Zhen.

After visualizing the evil god, Li Zhen's mind and consciousness seemed to have undergone some wonderful changes.

It is said that bats are the animal that symbolizes the hour of Zi, which belongs to water, so bats are associated with water.

Following the method of visualization written by Master Danyang, Li Zhen mapped the kidneys, which belong to the water element, to the extremely yin six-armed bat-faced evil spirit. He visualized his kidneys transforming into the six-armed evil spirit and entering his dantian. He already had a mysterious connection with the evil spirit, so practicing the method presented no obstacles, and he easily visualized the six-armed evil spirit in his mind.

Human imagination is not long-lasting. Once the attention is diverted, people will naturally forget what they had previously imagined.

But this is not the case for Li Zhen, who is visualizing the six-armed evil god.

Now, even if he didn't think about the Six-Armed Evil God, the vague impression of the Six-Armed Evil God still remained in his consciousness and could not be removed.

This feeling made Li Zhen feel a little weird...

But his consciousness was indeed constantly rising in some way.

This seems to be an indescribable essential improvement.

As the visualization progresses, this change will definitely become more obvious.

The previously interrupted connection with the red-eyed bat was reestablished, and it was closer than before.

As long as Li Zhen thought about it, he could feel the feelings of the red-eyed bat.

This change made Li Zhen subconsciously look down on the red-eyed bat with a condescending attitude, as if the red-eyed bat would not refuse no matter what he ordered.

Immortal God...

Thinking of the previous incident, Li Zhen chuckled.

If you want to change your fate, you will definitely have to pay an unimaginable price.

Li Zhen had been mentally prepared for this.

But now he realized that his previous preparation was not enough.

The price he would have to pay would definitely be far beyond his imagination.

But as long as I can survive, what does it matter how high the price I pay?
Finally, we can begin...

Putting down the red-eyed bat, Li Zhen picked up the small piece of banyan wood on the altar and began to carve it with a knife.

Half an hour later, a little man gradually took shape.

After wiping the sweat off his forehead, Li Zhen swallowed a few painkillers and continued his carving.

Another half an hour later, the rough little man's appearance was already about 50% similar to Li Zhen.

With Li Zhen's craftsmanship, being able to carve to this extent has already exceeded his own limits.

His hands had never been so steady.

Wherever he wanted to cut, the knife in his hand would obediently cut there without any error.

Li Zhen was fascinated by this unprecedented experience.

This should be the result of a change in consciousness?
After carving this little man, Li Zhen didn't feel much tired.

Write your birth date on a piece of paper and stick it on the back of the little man.

Then, Li Zhen cut off his hair, burned it into ashes, and put it into a small cup.

Li Zhen caught the red-eyed bat, pierced its heart with a needle, and took out a few drops of blood from it.

The red-eyed bat let out a few screams of pain, but did not resist, not even daring to bare its teeth.

He added the red-eyed bat's heart blood and the corpse fluid on the altar into the small cup, then used tweezers to pick out a few maggots from the beef on the altar and threw them into the cup.

"...My blood is stagnant, my soul is empty. I use my black hair as a guide and my blood as an oath..."

Amidst the low and evil incantations, Li Zhen used a small brush to brush the liquid in the cup onto the locust wood figurine.

"The living fall to the ground, and rotting flesh abounds. Evil bats cry, and the moon's shadow loses its light...By casting this curse, even the dead remain..."

The entire "corpse descent" process lasts for 49 days.

If the sorcerer is willing, he can prolong the process and make the "corpse curse" occur in certain steps.
