Capítulo 1391: Chapter 660: Corpse Bone Crowd
…
The gallery’s depths, in fact, lead away from it, reaching the outer wall of the Art Building.
Yet, Kuai Hongji didn’t take this path; instead, he plunged into an area darker than darkness itself.
It was a place where even the glow of an old kerosene lamp was suppressed, its light extending only as far as an outstretched hand. Here, pitch blackness and chilling cold seed to be the eternal thes, and anyone entering would be lost endlessly.
But Kuai Hongji wouldn’t.
He seed to fumble upon sothing in the dark, then, as if passing through a swath of cotton, Traversed through so barrier.
When his footsteps landed, beneath him were huge green stone bricks, and around him was an enclosed, suffocating cylindrical space— a staircase conforming to the Fibonacci sequence.
This was the stairwell below the Bell Tower.
Kuai Hongji “took a shortcut” to get here.
He slightly bowed his head. In the abyssal darkness at the base of the Fibonacci sequence spiral, mist was floating, the bottom unseen.
He began to descend the stairs slowly.
Step after step, step after step…
The staircase seed endless.
So, Kuai Hongji stopped, and from the stairs, he leaped downward.
At that mont, the originally twisted Fibonacci sequence steps unfolded like a living ribbon, with its ends joining, forming a Möbius Ring.
“Truly self-contained…” Kuai Hongji shook his head helplessly, pinpointed a spot, and dove in.
The next mont, the Möbius Ring turned back into a Fibonacci sequence spiral, and Kuai Hongji entered a deeper level of the Deep Well layers from the stairwell spiral.
Within the Deep Well, there wasn’t any wind, yet the water sounded like it was filled with invisible waves.
From the cracks in the Deep Well’s inner walls, gray mist perated, floating like cotton wadding over the surface of the well water like a thick blanket covering the parts of the corpses extending out of the water surface.
Yet, the chains extending from those corpses and nailed into the well walls were clearly visible in the mist.
The chains were covered with viscous black liquid secreted from the corpses, soaking into the moss within the Deep Well walls.
The other end of the chain was nailed into the Deep Well wall, already covered with moss.
Kuai Hongji’s gaze followed the chain downward, extending into the gray mist: “Even if Old Lin just ca, you didn’t need to self-contain yourself?”
Kuai Hongji’s voice, as if feathers, floated downward.
“Clang—!”
The corpse slightly quivered, causing the iron chains to tense.
“Splash, splash, splash…”
The well water stirred, slowly parting the veil of gray mist.
“Clang, clang, clang…”
The thick chains quivered slightly, and that broken body, slowly erged from the water.
A rare smile appeared on Kuai Hongji’s face, yet with the support of the old kerosene lamp, that smile appeared incredibly eerie and chilling.
“Long ti no see, ‘Butcher’.”
Waves emanated from the Butcher’s corpse, an extension of his will: [If self-contained, even across three thousand worlds, I could perceive your breath… However, how should I address you now?]
Kuai Hongji slightly lowered his eyelids: “Whatever.”
[Then… still by the old feeling, ‘Yin Bi’.]
Kuai Hongji’s eye corner twitched slightly: “I don’t quite like that na.”
[Why?] the Butcher’s corpsed asked.
[Soone else used it; I don’t want you two tangled together.] Kuai Hongji said.
[Such a thing… interesting.] The Butcher suddenly realized sothing, [Wait, could it be…?]
Kuai Hongji nodded: “Yes.”
[Hohoho hahahaha…] The Butcher’s corpse laughed heartily, causing the entire Deep Well to shake violently, as though the world was collapsing, [It seems you not only kept your promise but did better than you said!]
[Very good, excellent…]
[Speak, speak! Not long ago, Lin Yi’s Will Transition already occurred, and now you’ve co, it seems the ti has ripened?]
Kuai Hongji said: “The ti is near ripe, but the preparation still lacks a bit.”
[Just speak, what do you need to do?]
“Nothing is needed, just wait for the ‘force’.”
[Just this?]
“Just this.”
[If it’s just this, why did you co here yourself?!] The Butcher’s corpse was sowhat baffled.
“With more ti, I ca to check on you.” Kuai Hongji said, “You don’t believe it?”
[If you spout nonsense again, I’ll just throw you back to The Outpost!] The Butcher’s corpse sneered, [Anyone else saying they ca to see , I’d believe, but not you. Not at all.]
“Alright…” Kuai Hongji was sowhat helpless, “It seems you’re still holding a grudge over so of ‘his’ offenses.”
[Anyone even slightly similar to the Divine Craftsman, I’d be vigilant of, let alone soone like you?] The Butcher’s corpse scorned, [Spit it out.]
“It’s been years, and after just a few words, you’re impatient. Can you not recover that long-lost joy you had at the start?”
[Three, two…]
“Alright, alright… I’m here to get a segnt of spine.” Kuai Hongji shrugged, “Take it and leave.”
[Get lost!!! What do you think my spine is? Lin Yi already ca for a piece, if you’re taking another, might as well have divided my whole corpse at the start!]
“I would’ve liked to… if not for the Law intercepting…”
