Having solved the puzzle, Ling Xiao made his move.
He seemed to have been ripped from his soul; his body moved forward stiffly, like a puppet whose strings had been pulled out. His gaze was empty and lifeless; his once clear eyes were now murky, and even his pupils were indistinct.
Suddenly, without warning, he raised his fist and swung it violently at Xie Yuhua, who was closest to him. Xie Yuhua was already watching Ling Xiao, and seeing the fists raining down, she instinctively dodged to the side. However, her opponent seemed to have completely lost his mind, and his chaotic attacks became increasingly fierce.
"Kid! Wake up!" Xie Yuhua called to him, seemingly trying to wake him up, afraid of hurting the child.
After calling several times without any response, Xieyuhua had no choice but to rush to the back and knock the person unconscious.
He hesitated, unsure of what to do. Seeing that Ling Xiao could move again and had been knocked unconscious by Xie Yuhua, the young man gestured to the stone statue opposite Xie Yuhua.
The stone statue seemed to be shrouded in a mysterious and profound dark substance, giving it a sinister and terrifying feel from a distance, even though it didn't look like that when the chess pieces were moving.
Upon closer inspection, one is surprised to discover that the dark substance was not simply covering the surface of the statue; a black, chess piece-like stone was actually embedded in the statue!
Without hesitation, the young man pried the stone off and put it in his pocket. Then, he brandished the dagger at Ling Xiao. Xie Yuhua warily blocked the dagger. The young man used the dagger to cut his finger and dripped blood onto the cut, saying, "Blood."
He gestured for Jieyuhua to cut Lingxiao's finger as well, and then said, "Really."
The authenticity of this statue naturally refers to the authenticity of Ling Xiao's stone statue. The young man's judgment was quite simple: Ling Xiao's stone statue does not have the bottom layer; it is a complete one-to-one replica, and only this stone statue has something on it.
Jieyuhua still hesitated, but a little bloodstains wouldn't be a problem. The clothes Lingxiao had used to cover his head would be perfectly usable. If needed, she could just break off some of the frozen blood clots and throw them in.
The young man didn't care. This thing doesn't recognize its owner; it only depends on their bloodline. After all, this is Ling Xiao's stone statue, so dripping his bloodline on it wouldn't work. It should be the bloodline of the Other Shore Flower.
As for why the idea of dripping blood into it came about, it was naturally due to the experiment mentioned by Hei Xiazi.
The moment the blood dripped in, a rhythmic sound, like the beat of a drum, gradually rose up. The sound seemed to come from the underworld, or perhaps from an unknown abyss, sending chills down one's spine.
At the same time, several strange-looking, ferocious-looking unidentified creatures suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
The child's originally pale face turned bright red, and his body began to heat up intensely as if it had been set on fire. His forehead, palms, and even his entire body were burning hot, as if they were about to consume the surrounding air. And as his body temperature continued to rise, wisps of white smoke even began to rise.
"Dumb guy, did you perform a ritual?" Black Bear pulled out his pistol and focused his attention on the monsters that had suddenly appeared.
These things looked remarkably alike. Their faces looked as if they had been skinned alive, completely sunken in. Their noses were like skulls, with no soft tissue left, just a large hole. Their eyes were still there, but perhaps because they were in a tomb and not always exposed to light, their eyes were green and emitted a ghostly glow. Their mouths were like the stone statues at the entrance, each with a bird's beak.
"So the statues here aren't abstract art, they're actually realist art," Hei Xiazi remarked, a rare occurrence for him.
