Even hybrid monsters have their day

Chapter 73 The Memorial of Death by Blood Loss

Hearing her say that, she felt even more that Geng Miaowan was comforting her. Seeing the two girls from Yuntian Pavilion walking towards her, she cried even more dramatically, and her hands gripped even tighter.

When the two girls realized they couldn't separate them, they turned to call for help, but Geng Miaowan quickly said, "We'll walk by ourselves."

After saying that, she pulled Yin Xiuping to her feet and walked to the back of the line that had already been formed.

Aunt Ying and the people from Yuntian Pavilion herded the group of girls to the altar, the place where Geng Miaowan's heart blood was drawn, as if they were herding livestock.

This place was different from what she had seen the day before. Although it was still the same spot, the entire array was filled with energy. Geng Miaowan took a look and realized that the entire Five-Pointed Star Binding Spirit Array was now complete. Inside the enormous array, not only were the five corners covered with characters, but in the center of the array, a vibrant red flower bloomed eerily.

If she were closer, she would definitely be able to tell that the red flower was formed from congealed blood.

A circular trench, about one person high and fifty centimeters wide, had been dug around the formation. The trench was pitch black, yet it was densely packed with children. A faint green light flickered within, sending chills down the spines of those watching.

The girls who had been captured had never seen such a procession before. They were so frightened that their legs went weak before they even reached the circular trough, and their cries for help became even more boisterous.

Zhang Zijian frowned impatiently, waved his hand, and the cave fell silent instantly. Yin Xiuping wanted to cry, but found that she couldn't make a sound at all.

The girls were lined up one by one at the edge of the circular trough, just an arm's length away from where hands reached up from below to grab them. They shrank back, trying to retreat, but their feet wouldn't move an inch, as if they were frozen in place.

Geng Miaowan knew that all of this must be related to Zhang Zijian's actions just now.

Yin Xiuping was so scared that tears streamed down her face, but she couldn't make a sound. She looked at Geng Miaowan, who gave her a comforting smile, which made her tears fall even harder.

Once everyone had taken their places, Ninth Sister walked to the center of the formation and sat cross-legged beside the flower. Ninth Sister's skin was as smooth as jade, fair and flawless, which made the flower appear even more vibrant and alluring, with a beauty that seemed to weep blood, like a red lotus from hell.

Geng Miaowan's heart stirred. She suddenly remembered the red spider lilies blooming along the River of Oblivion when she looked down from the sky on the day of her reincarnation. They were indeed as alluring as weeping blood. She hadn't seen them clearly that day because she was far away, so she hadn't remembered them for a moment. But now, looking at the flowers in the formation like this, they looked more and more like red spider lilies.

It is said that the red spider lily is a flower that guides the soul, and seeing that Zhang Zijian used it here, it seems that the saying is true.

Seeing that everything was ready, he left the altar. Geng Miaowan thought to herself, he must have gone to Shangxing Town. She had been here for two days and wondered what the situation was like outside.

Time passed slowly amidst her anxiety. She both hoped that time would pass quickly so that they could subdue the drought demon, and wished that time would stop, because she had no idea what was about to happen.

As she was pondering this, a somewhat languid male voice suddenly echoed in her mind, carrying a deep, long-unspoken tone, "The Five-Pointed Star Binding Spirit Array?"

Geng Miaowan was startled, but then became happy and quickly asked, "Luan Hao, you're awake?"

Luan Hao didn't answer her question, but said sarcastically, "How come you've turned yourself into a sacrifice after only a few days apart?"

Although his tone was harsh, Geng Miaowan, unusually, did not argue with him. Instead, she briefly recounted the recent events to him and finally asked, "Do you have a way to break this Five-Pointed Star Binding Spirit Array?"

"You ran into Peng Yuxian?" After listening to the conversation, Luan Hao seemed only interested in this. He practically gritted his teeth when he mentioned Peng Yuxian. Geng Miaowan, preoccupied with breaking the formation, didn't immediately notice anything amiss and simply nodded, asking, "Do you actually have a way to break this Five-Pointed Star Binding Spirit Formation?"

Luan Hao remained silent for a long time before speaking, "What did Peng Yuxian tell you?"

"He said that as long as I was captured, he could break the formation. But how could that be possible? I always felt that things weren't that simple."

"Since he says it can be broken this way, then it can be broken." Luan Hao's tone returned to its somewhat cold tone.

What he didn't say was that the Five-Pointed Star Binding Spirit Array is divided into a main array and an auxiliary array. Generally, the auxiliary array is set up in the open, while the main array is often hidden in a very secret place.

Even if the auxiliary formation is broken, the main formation will still activate. To completely break the formation, one must attack the main formation. However, even if the main formation is found, it cannot be broken without locating the formation's core. The core of the main formation only becomes apparent after the formation is activated, but once activated, it's too late.

However, with Geng Miaowan present, things would be different. The Five-Pointed Star Binding Spirit Array requires fifteen different types of fresh blood from its inception to activation. She claims to possess the Myriad Spirits Body, and the blood of the Myriad Spirits Body is incredibly powerful. If her blood were to mix into the array, then the blood of everyone else would be transformed by her, and the array would collapse on its own.

But Peng Yuxian...

Luan Hao couldn't help but sneer. What a small world! They'd run into each other again.

Geng Miaowan, of course, had no idea what he was thinking; her attention was entirely focused on the five-pointed star binding spirit array before her. When a powerful energy fluctuation emanated from above the array, she knew that the array had been activated.

The energy enveloped the entire magic circle, with the zombies in the circular slots being the first to be affected. As the energy entered their bodies, it seemed to bring them endless pain; they howled and struggled, trying to climb up. But an invisible force seemed to be suppressing them from above, preventing them from rising.

The wailing continued unabated, making Geng Miaowan's heart clench. After a while, the wailing finally subsided, and a surge of energy rose from the circular trough, enveloping the girls standing nearby.

Geng Miaowan really wanted to say, "Damn, what the hell is this?"

After being enveloped by that energy, although there was no pain or itching, blood slowly dripped from the fingertips. At first, it dripped drop by drop, then it became a small stream, and gradually it seemed to be increasing.

This is a final melody that will lead to death from blood loss!
