Sparks flew and landed on Li Huowang, creating a mighty conflagration that dealt extre pain to Li Huowangpain that almost made him faint. The extrely high temperature distorted the air around him, and his figure was instantly scorched.
When Li Huowang saw that the Nine-Colored Deer before him was emitting a plu of black smoke, he grinned nacingly with his lipless mouth and charged at it.
Engulfed in flas, Li Huowang collided heavily against the amalgamation of flesh, blood, and innards. The gory hill burst open and was engulfed by the raging flas.
Li Huowang breathed a sigh of relief as he stared at the raging flas before him. It seed that he had made the right choice by not choosing to transform his skin into a life-saving talisman.
The writhing flesh eventually stopped moving, but Li Huowang sensed sothing amiss. He rushed into the fire with his purple-tassel sword in hand and slashed at the charred mass. However, the spiritual sin was missing.
It escaped! Li Huowangs face turned ugly. This spiritual sin was far more cunning than he had imagined.
Where do you think you can run? Li Huowang surveyed the surroundings. Then, he squatted and pressed his hand on the dry weeds and dead wood on the ground. Flas rushed out of him from all directions, and they climbed up the peach trees like living creatures. Each flaming peach tree was like a plague, and the nearby region quickly transford into a sea of fire.
Li Huowang stood in the middle of the flas, looking for any abnormalities. However, he did not see anything unusual. The spiritual sin hadn't been forced out by the fire. It seed like dealing with it was going to be more difficult than Li Huowang thought.
What am I supposed to do now? If it manages to escape, its going to be really troubleso to find it again. After pondering for a mont, Li Huowang decided to divine the spiritual sin's location.
Just as Li Huowang was about to cut himself using his sword, a fireball abruptly manifested over the back of his hand and dove into his wound. Damn it! The spiritual sin has possessed the flas!
Li Huowang had realized it too late. The flas that had engulfed him and the peach trees were extinguished instantly, and his fleshly body began to collapse like the Nine-Colored Deer from earlier. His flesh, blood, bones, skin, and hair separated and ford a pile of gore.
To make matters worse, Li Huowang was conscious throughout the ordeal. He felt his flesh being torn apart, and the pain was so extre that he wished to die.
However, Li Huowang couldnt even die, as the spiritual sin was about to take full control of him! Li Huowang could feel its pure malice, which had pervaded everything within him as it tried to take over his consciousness.
It turned out that spiritual sins weren't living creatures but were embodints of sin themselves! They were perfectly capable of triumphing over just about anyone, as even the most virtuous person could not be devoid of sin.
Li Huowang gritted his teeth and clenched his fists. Half of his face slid off and fell to the ground. I am virtuous, and I don't have even a single sin!
Just then, Li Huowang's lted fleshly body had converged, transforming into his original figure. Even the skin that he had sacrificed to Ba-Hui had returned, and it allowed him to understand that he was in a re illusion.
He couldnt be fooled!
Li Huowang took advantage of that opportunity to run to the edge of the peach forest.
Li Huowang's figure collapsed to the ground like tofu when he saw the carriage up ahead. Just as his face was about to separate from his head, he looked up at the carriage and roared, Li Sui! Theres sothing in my body! Help drive it out!
His words had just echoed into the air when his fleshly body separated, transforming into a wriggling mass of flesh that rushed toward the depths of the peach forest.
Step, step, step!
Frantic footsteps sounded, and a pair of eyes turned to see a skinless dog running toward them on all fours.
Dad, Im coming! Li Sui exclaid, and her body disintegrated in mid-air. Her flesh and tentacles converged at one point, becoming a massive clump of flesh that landed heavily on Li Huowang. The two clumps of flesh intertwined and created a massive pile of gore covered in tentacles. Then, it rolled violently around the burning peach forest.
Li Huowang and Li Suis faces would appear intermittently amidst the rolling ball of at, and their conditions appeared rather unstable. The spiritual sin had decided to beco a bit greedy and take control over Li Suis body as well, but it was having a hard ti, as the Black Taisui itself was born to devour.
Moreover, Li Huowang was working hard to regain so control over his body as well.
The spiritual sin finally gave in, as it was fighting two enemies by itself. Li Huowang's body converged at one point, transforming into a bloated humanoid figure. However, his abdon burst open, and sothing rushed out of his stomach.
Li Huowang looked up but saw nothing except for strange footprints in the ashes, which vanished quickly as it turned to a corner. Li Huowang was convinced that the footprints had to have belonged to the spiritual sin. After all, spiritual sins could never be seen by soone with the ten emotions and eight sufferings.
Dad, are you okay? Li Sui asked. Then, she rushed out of Li Huowangs abdon, allowing Li Huowang's bloated figure to return to normal.
Li Huowang's organs were in a ss, and there were so organs that had shifted, but the good thing was that he had full control over his body once more.
Li Huowang glared resentfully at the footprints. He quickly bandaged his wound. He had overco all sorts of hardships, and he couldn't fall to sothing so minor. Li Huowang did not even groan as he withstood the burning sensation all over his skin.
Once Li Huowang was done bandaging his wound, he wasted no ti and rushed toward where the footprints had vanished.
Li Sui, wait outside for , and rush in once I call you! Stay with Miaomiao for now!
Li Huowang slowed down and beca fully aware of his surroundings. He listened to every single noise around him. He couldn't see, so he had to use his ears to track down the enemy!
The spiritual sin was far more cunning than he had imagined, but he had to outsmart it.
Rustle, rustle.
Li Huowang heard faint rustling noises behind him, but he did not react. He moved forward slowly until he saw a hollowed-out tree with what looked like a tunnel in it. He bent down and entered the tunnel, seemingly searching inside for the spiritual sin.
Just then, a series of footprints moved rapidly toward Li Huowang's feet. Then, the footprints disappeared as soon as they reached Li Huowang's wounded feet. The mont the spiritual sin burrowed its way into Li Huowang's body through his feet, it realized sothing amiss.
Li Huowang's upper half was missing; it turned out that the spiritual sin had burrowed into Li Huowang's lower body.
Hehe Gotcha. I'm sure you didn't expect to use my lower body as bait, did you?
