Chapter 451 Fire and Ashes

By the time Shehri and his men had gone through all the hardships and overcome all the obstacles, almost a quarter of an hour had passed.

Finally, they rushed into the gate of the audience tower, and then they had to face the rioting darkness, and countless crazy shadow attacks and entanglements.

The bandages on Shehri’s body unfolded instantly, and the stench of decay spread, instantly causing everything to decay and decay, and even the darkness quickly dimmed.

And inside his body, the sound of cracking continued.

The pressure of the Tower’s Shadow is rapidly increasing and is gradually being targeted.

But at the moment when he finally rushed to the top of the tower, he saw only a mess. Among the countless burn marks and cracks, there were only pieces of sticky blood.

But no body was found.

That scene was definitely not an accidental violation of some temple taboo, but rather a massacre! A brutal, cruel and brutal slaughter and devastation!
But the scene was too clean. Apart from bloodstains and cracks, not even a trace of spiritual essence or flesh remained.

It was as if they had all been swallowed up by an invisible monster.

The moment he noticed that scene, Shehri withdrew without thinking, retreated violently, and even ignored the taboo against taking off into the air, and directly jumped down from the edge of the tower and fell.

And what was heard at the last moment was a crisp sound.

——Inside the center of the tower, the self-destruct sequence is activated.

As the entire Rift World shook, the bell of invasion in the temple rang out loudly, echoing loudly, and darkness burst out like a spring, sweeping across the world wantonly.

The huge audience tower suddenly exploded right in front of Shehri’s eyes, and a terrifying gust of air rose up out of nowhere, sweeping in all directions.

Countless subordinates who did not have time to dodge were torn apart by the eruption of thunder and flames, flew into the sky and shattered along with the bricks and stones.

“It happened!”

Sheheri’s heart tightened in mid-air, and he had no time to care about the countless black lines that entangled him after violating the ban. He turned back in surprise: “Mr. Wuyou, be careful!”

late.

When the audience ceremony was completely interrupted with the last tower, the alarm had been triggered.

The rage hidden in the temple erupted along with the darkness!

Amid the roar, the walls of the forbidden area trembled violently. Magnificent doors appeared out of thin air, and hideous and violent faces emerged and opened their eyes.

It began to indiscriminately attack any creature that dared to approach.

The first to bear the brunt was Lord Wuyou, who was stared at by dozens of faces. His scarlet eyes were filled with anger, and he imposed excommunication without reservation!

[Those who overstep their authority shall be put to death]!
Amid the high-pitched and mournful bell sounds, dark clouds appeared out of nowhere above the sky, like an iron curtain, blocking out the last ray of illusory light.

A huge amount of afterimages and black lines were rioting, completely crazy.

The cruel night begins from now on!

No sound of heaven or earth collapsing could be heard from the outside world; only the clear sound of dripping water echoed in the dead silence.

In the workshop inside the Doomsday Train, a new space unfolds from the darkness. Hanging under chains, dying bodies hang high.

Mercury flows through the body, and under the reverse suppression of solid alchemy, it shackles the soul and blocks everything.

Only blood, like life, is lost drop by drop.

When the breeze blew out from the pipe, the bodies hanging in the air began to sway like wind chimes, echoing crisply in the intervals between the vague wailing.

“After four hundred years of development, modern alchemy has covered all aspects of life, including blood, flesh, spiritual essence, soul, consciousness, resentment, curse…

With the development of alchemy, human life and value have gradually increased. Even today, waste that was once as worthless as weeds can become priceless.

To sublimate the mundane, to transcend the mundane, to extract and purify gold from rusty iron, this is the essence of alchemy.

The application and effect of evil alchemy are even more superior to the association bound by human ethics.
Among the techniques I know, there are also twelve major evils, three categories of sixteen techniques for dyeing and transforming evil, and seventy-seven forms and variations of major evils…

The amount of knowledge and understanding is even greater than that.”

Ji Jue stood in front of the workbench, arranged the tools into different categories, explained the functions of each one, and even demonstrated every detail on the spot.

Nothing hidden, nothing reserved.

“Next, you can choose to use it as material and exert your last bit of effect. I guarantee that after experiencing the gift of stagnation and decay, your consciousness and soul will be immortal in the next thousand years of torture.

Or, you can choose a simpler, easier, better way for everyone… We can put an end to it all.”

At that moment, the crisp sound rang out again.

The blockade and restraint of the mouth, nose, lips and tongue were loosened slightly during wailing, crying, scolding or begging.

“Now, you can tell me.”

Ji Jue raised his head, looked at the distorted faces in front of him, and finally asked:
“his name.”

An hour later, Ji Jue walked out of the workshop.

Behind the closed door, there was only dead silence in the darkness.

The pale light illuminated the blood on his face, hands, and body, which flowed down layer by layer, creating one shocking patch of scarlet after another.

As if he was distracted, he walked to the sink with familiarity and followed the standard operating procedures to wash his hands and clean up after the job.

Strands of blood spread out under the flushing of water, passed through the white porcelain and disappeared into the drain.

In the reflection of the mirror, all the remnants of the fingers, hands, neck, hair and face gradually disappeared, leaving only the burn scar on the face, which was still red.

No matter how hard I scrubbed and wiped, it could not be removed. Instead, more and more blood color spread from the fingertips, the same scarlet and bright color, but so dazzling, winding wantonly, bringing waves of dull pain.

At that moment, Ji Jue lowered his eyes in confusion and stared at his hands.

After a long time, I finally realized it.

“I see……”

He laughed at himself, “This is my blood.”

“Sir, are you okay?”

Stars of light emerged and gathered from behind Ji Jue.

Ji Jue raised his eyes and looked at the projection in the mirror.

Snapped!
At that moment, a cracking sound emerged from the mirror, and the cracks were winding and crisscrossing, cutting the face in the reflection.

Unrecognizable.

It was like suddenly waking up from a long and deep dream, and then, as the cracks wound along, I gradually became clear.

Thoughts flowed in an unprecedented calm.

The Sower, Under the Whirlpool, The Disaster of the Flame Tide, Lord Wuyou, The Evil of Baibang, The Wolf’s Den… He should have been furious, roaring in anger, and crazy with regret, but at this moment, what emerged from his heart was only unspeakable joy.

So easy.

He closed his eyes and laughed silently.

“I’m very good.”

“No, you’re not, sir.”

The projection of the spirit substance changed, hesitated, and stared at him, not moving his eyes away: “You… are very sad.”

“Maybe? But that doesn’t conflict with joy, right?”

Ji Jue shook his head nonchalantly: “The biggest question and confusion in my life has been answered today. I just feel… congratulations, nothing can be better than this.”

Fate is so stingy that it has made him struggle in confusion and pain until now.

But fate was so generous that it gave him the final answer.

What a blessing!

All the sufferings I have encountered in my life actually have reasons…

It is no longer a disaster or misfortune that cannot be avenged, but it really exists somewhere and will never let down the enemy who has been waiting for so long!
He was delighted and overjoyed about this.

So happy that I want to burn the whole world to ashes!

In the silence, Ji Jue grinned, no longer able to suppress his surging and violent joy.

Only a winding streak of scarlet flowed down from the scar, like an unburned tear, sliding down silently as if falling into the abyss.

There is no abyss.

Because a cold hand raised up, spread out its simple fingers, and carefully caught it.

Hold tight.

Isis was silent.

It was so close, as if within reach. But the ethereal illusion was so fragile, like a bubble, trapped in a broken mirror, unable to touch anything in reality.

Until, amid the sharp friction sound, a pair of cold and simple steel hands slowly rose up and closed little by little.

A gentle hug.

It was as if he was afraid of bursting that fragile illusion.

Be careful.

“Then burn everything to ashes, sir.”

Isis’s eyes were gentle and peaceful. “Light a fire, throw everything that causes you pain into the flames, and burn it all, even if it turns this world into hell.

If, at that time, you still have the interest and spare time in that scorched earth… then we can go pick up trash together again.”

Ji Jue was stunned.

I heard her voice, so soft.

The eyes in the reflection were like stars, full of twinkling light, staring at him intently, and promising to the creator in front of him:
“No matter where you go, I will be by your side.”

This is her innate duty and function, the mission that the soul named Isis has chosen for herself.

“…”

Ji Jue stared into her eyes in a daze.

for a long time.

It seemed that for a moment, the pain that was enough to overwhelm my consciousness no longer existed.

Another kind of power was injected into his soul, gentle and persistent, trying to support some of his weight, even if it was so small and beyond his ability.

But the moment he realized it, he felt incredibly relieved. Even if he was about to fall into hell, he would feel happy and expectant.

“Then go create hell, Isis.”

He reached out his hand, touched the dreamlike flash, and told her: “Let’s do it together.”

“I am your tool, you only need to give orders.”

Then, the starlight gathered again, transforming into a figure like a lady, who bowed and saluted, “How can I help you?”

“Please help me look through the inventory on the special train and find some old things.” Ji Jue said, “There is a place in this world that needs a little fire, a little despair, and a little surprise.”

“As you wish sir.”

Isis nodded without hesitation.

“besides……”

“Ok?”

Xingguang looked back in confusion.

“Thank you.”

Ji Jue smiled and looked at her.

“…”

Isis was stunned for a moment, said nothing, and looked away.

The starlight trembled slightly, dissipated, and disappeared like fireflies.

In the silence that followed, Ji Jue leaned on the chair in front of the window, stroking the handle, staring quietly at the station outside the window and the dark sky outside the station.

The same train, the same wait, just like when it was engulfed by the flames.

There doesn’t seem to be any difference.

But unlike the fear and confusion he felt at that time, this time, Ji Jue was full of patience and expectation.

This feeling is so wonderful.

It’s as if, suddenly, there is a person in this world who is very important to you, more important than your so-called life, future or ideals, but you have never noticed it.

So, next, Ji Jue wanted to find that person and would use any means necessary.

Until he and all he has is burned in the flames of hell…

Cut into pieces and grind to dust!
