“Behind the mirror… is another space?”
Standing in front of the hole left from the shattered mirror, Su Lu stared pensively.
He was making a tough decision!
“This ancient house clearly has an access restriction… It is more closely linked to Spiritual Bodies. Last time my spiritual body entered, I didn’t encounter the curse… Furthermore, it seems to be specifically designed for Necromancers, or so one can deduce from Ranny’s actions… To explore this place. The best method would be for a Necromancer to lead the way.”
But within the Federation, that would be problematic.
Necromancers are a taboo profession, heavily targeted by the church and the Federation alike.
Because they are not only terribly evil but also highly unstable. They can easily lose control, transforming into real evil spirits and malign spirits. They retain human wisdom, which makes them extremely hard to eliminate.
“Can’t find a Necromancer… a Spiritual Body will have to do.”
Su Lu licked his lips, “I can try soul-trancing inside the ancient house!”
This was a rather dangerous decision because once the spiritual body left the physical body and encountered danger, the body wouldn’t be able to protect itself in time.
“Therefore… I can’t leave too far, better yet not teleport! ”
Su Lu gritted his teeth: “Soul Trance!”
In an instant, his spirit left his body, hovering around him.
His spirit self-viewed the surroundings, and everything appeared different.
Especially the mirror, the darkened path inside it could barely show the room it was leading to and a shadowy figure.
“Ranny the Malevolent Spirit…”
This nearly forgotten evil spirit resided in the ancient house after all! Su Lu’s spirit swiftly returned to his body, and he sprung up heading towards the path.
“The evil of this world…”
Hughes muttered to himself as he advanced step by step.
His body had undergone alarming and disgustingly unpleasant changes by Large bubbles formed all over his body, and many burst oozing pus, making him look like a corpse.
Even more shocking was the emergence of numerous tentacles from the surrounding darkness, wrapping around his body as if attempting to restrain him.
As time passed, these tentacles began to burrow into his body, merging with him.
“In the name of the Goddess…” Hughes took another step forward.
Splat!
The tentacle wrapped around his shoulder snapped due to excessive tension, causing it to thin and eventually burst. The injury meant Hughes was hurt too because of the symbiotic nature of their merger.
Without showing any sign of pain, Hughes continued to move forward.
Finally, he stood in front of the honeycomb-like Black Stone. He mustered all his strength to draw out a dagger filled with sacred runes, plunging it fiercely into the Black Stone.
Thump!
The tip of the dagger met a tiny resistance against the Black Stone, then pierced right through.
The honeycomb Black Stone shattered, and the sound of countless screams filled the air.
A whirlpool of black and vaporous energy threatened to engulf Hughes.
Yet, Hughes spread his arms wide open, his face resembling that of a martyr.
Outside the Devil’s ancient house.
“Hughes has found the core of the ancient house, coordinate with him!”
An old man dressed in the garb of an Archbishop appeared in the crowd, giving orders.
He was the Archbishop of the local Goddess of Light Church, Marlon Trellin! A fourth-rank professional, he was also the vortex in the mental realm sensed by Su Lu earlier.
Till now, he had been hiding himself, waiting to handle any sudden incidents.
At this time, he finally revealed himself.
“Praise the Goddess, You are the Dominator of Light! Your believers will achieve eternal life in your kingdom!”
Many believers began to recite the scriptures in praise of the Goddess of Light.
A white pillar of light burst into the sky, piercing the darkness of the Silent Forest and attracting the sun’s glow.
“In the name of the Goddess… Purify!”
Marlon spoke loudly.
A sacred brilliance filled his whole body, and, as if pulled by something, immediately and directly penetrated the ancient mansion, sweeping across countless spaces and striking Hughes’ back with unerring accuracy.
Within this warm and healing light, Hughes smiled, as the puss-filled sores and tentacles on his body quickly fell off. His wounds healed swiftly, turning into scabs and dropping off, revealing smooth and delicate skin. He looked like he had regained several years of his youth.
“Darkness, begone!”
Hughes roared, and the honeycomb of black stone beneath his dagger completely shattered.
Crack!
Crack!
The shattered stone exploded, turned into dust, and finally into bits of light that dissipated into oblivion.
The gloomy and illusory feeling around the demon mansion faded away
quickly.
In the Black Forest, a large number of Transcendents watched the trees in front of them turn to flying ash, their faces showing expressions of exultation or apprehension: “The demon mansion…has truly been purified!” “The Goddess of Light is truly one of the strongest of the Seven Gods.”
“The power of the local church is too outrageous…”
Inside the old mansion.
Su Lu immediately felt different.
At the moment the light arrived, the entire mansion started to wail as if it was the final whimper of a dying person.
“This demon mansion… is dead!”
An inexplicable feeling emerged in his heart.
And in his inspiration, many phantoms of mansions from the Spirit World were quickly returning.
Returning together with them were the disappeared third rank professionals.
“Not good, I need to speed up!”
Su Lu broke through the wall and entered a partition.
This was a secret room, devoid of furniture, the floor was covered in dust.
In the center of the secret room, a black-shelled book was pierced by a dagger and fixed eerily to the floor.
An ethereal evil spirit was guarding it, seeming to pray to the book.
Su Lu glanced at it and saw a few characters written in the Gulam language on the cover, which translated to — “Nameless Necromancer Book”!
“A Necromancer’s lineage? Why is it pierced by a dagger?”
Su Lu approached in confusion. After seeing the style of the dagger, his heart skipped a beat, “This is… a Demon Hunter dagger?”
There was a Demon Hunting symbol on the hilt of the dagger, indicating the identity of this item that had once belonged to a Demon Hunter!
“The one who could kill his way here and seal the ‘Nameless Necromancer Book’, had terrifying power… I wonder what happened to them?”
Su Lu felt that, given the continued existence of the demon mansion, the one responsible may not have ended up well.
He could then clearly see the blackish-brown traces between the dagger and the Necronomicon, as if it had been stained with blood.
A scene came to his mind.
A strong large hand held the Demon Hunter dagger and fiercely stabbed the “Nameless Necromancer Book” into the ground.
Glug! Glug!
A great deal of blood seeped out from the damaged part of the Necronomicon!
“These two are both marvels, their levels are not low!”
Su Lu approached, his eyes filled with surprise and anticipation.
No matter whether he made use of the Demon Hunter’s dagger himself or gave it to Rod, either would be a good choice..
