Chu He’s control over Spatial Power was certainly far inferior to that of the master from the Human Race Supremacy Association.
But Chu He had his own thod: direct destruction using the most tyrannical force.
Thus, under the savage assault of Yin Yang Power, the space here could no longer hold.
Besides, the Black Continent Grassland itself was already afflicted by a dense Mysterious Power, so the space here had long been corroded beyond recognition.
Otherwise, the Rainbow Welfare Institute wouldn’t have undergone changes every so often.
Black and white light flared over every inch of land. Every wall began to tremble, then crumbled inch by inch, as if ti were reversing or a dream was shattering.
The surrounding scenery was like a sand painting swept up by a gale, constantly re-forming only to swiftly disintegrate again.
Each reconstruction brought a more bizarre layout; each erasure left behind a deeper scar.
Light twisted in this constantly shifting space, flashing and dimming. It revealed distorted faces that were pulled out by unseen hands to wander through the air.
Finally, when all illusion and turmoil subsided, the true face of the Rainbow Welfare Institute was revealed before the two of them.
This was no warm children’s welfare institute; it was clearly a grim and terrifying prison!
The towering walls, the cold iron gates, and the tightly shut cell doors all spoke of the darkness and despair that once filled this place.
Each cell was pitifully small, with only enough room for one person to curl up.
The air was thick with the mixed stench of mold and rust, an assault on the senses.
Inside, ancient and cruel instrunts of interrogation and torture lay scattered about: finger compressors, leg crushers, flogging canes, shackles, branding irons...
Every single item emanated a grim chill that sent a shiver down one’s spine.
The pain and cries of the victims seed to linger on these tools, an indelible mark that not even the passage of ti could erase.
On the walls, beneath the mottled paint, one could faintly see long-dried bloodstains.
They were dark and light, clustered and scattered, like hideous scars chronicling the atrocities and suffering that had occurred here.
So of these bloodstains were as fresh and red as a wound from yesterday; others were dark red, almost black.
After this astonishingly vast prison reverted to its true form, everyone who had entered it was finally brought together from their different dinsions.
So were fully ard Bounty Hunters.
So were covered in wounds, huddled in corners.
Others were contestants from the Martial Arts Academy’s ranking tournant, proceeding with caution.
Then there was Xiao Cangqing, who happened to run into Xiao Yu, Nanting Snow, Ye Lingyun, and Lin Zuoguang from the Great Xia Empire’s National Road Academy.
Lin Zuoguang’s face fell in terror as he shouted, "Isn’t... isn’t that Xiao Cangqing from the Vampire Clan? What’s he doing here?"
Xiao Cangqing was startled as well. He had been all alone in the Rainbow Welfare Institute from the very beginning.
He had wandered for a long ti without running into a single living person.
This made Xiao Cangqing feel that the place was inexplicably bizarre.
’No wonder so many teams were sent in before,’
’and so many people died, yet none of them managed to uncover the true core secret of the Rainbow Welfare Institute.’
But then the surrounding space had suddenly and rapidly changed, and many people appeared all around him.
It had given Xiao Cangqing quite a scare.
Just as he was about to raise his guard, he realized they were the people from the tournant teams.
"Has the Rainbow Welfare Institute returned to normal, or has so other strange change occurred?"
mbers of the Bounty Hunter Alliance adopted defensive stances, warily watching the people around them.
They knew nothing about the Martial Arts Academy ranking tournant being held in the outside world.
They had entered much earlier and had been lost in the Rainbow Welfare Institute for a very long ti.
When the spaces occasionally overlapped, they would encounter other intruders, and conflicts would almost always break out between them.
That was why corpses were scattered all over the ground. So were already desiccated,
while others still retained a semblance of life.
Many of the Bounty Hunter teams present had managed to survive this long
by plundering the resources of other teams.
"Look! What is that thing?"
a badly injured person said, pointing with a trembling hand toward a massive pool up ahead.
Only then did everyone else snap out of their shock.
At so point, a faint tint of blood had silently seeped into the air, draping the surroundings like a thin veil.
Under this bloody mist, a GURGLING sound echoed from ti to ti, breeding a baseless fear and unease in people’s hearts.
And the source of all these bizarre phenona was that enormous pool—seemingly ordinary, but secretly holding a profound mystery.
It lay there silently, its shape as regular as a ticulously crafted circular swimming pool,
but what it contained was vastly different from any ordinary pool.
The pool was not filled with clear, turquoise water, but with crimson blood, filled to the brim.
This scarlet blood flowed slowly in the pool, BUBBLE BUBBLE, releasing bubbles from ti to ti. The bursting of each bubble was accompanied by a soft pop, like a whisper from Hell.
Around the pool’s edge, perhaps due to long-term imrsion in blood, the stone had beco dark red and smooth, emitting a strange luster.
All around, it was so quiet that one could only hear the boiling of the blood resonating with their own heartbeat, involuntarily imrsing them in this bizarre atmosphere, unable to break free.
"Mr. Chu, you ca in too."
Xiao Cangqing flashed back to Chu He’s side.
It was only then that the students from the National Road Academy—Xiao Yu, Nanting Snow, and the others—finally saw Chu He. Expressions of delighted surprise imdiately appeared on their faces.
’With the Dean here, we’ll be safe.’
"Mr. Chu, I have a plan."
"How about you help get the blood in this pool so I can absorb it?"
"My strength will definitely undergo another transformation."
"When we run into people from the Human Race Supremacy Association, I’ll be able to take them down for sure."
"Besides, we’re allies now. If I beco stronger, it’ll be good for you too."
Xiao Cangqing rubbed his hands together excitedly. He had finally found the source of the Ruby.
The Bloodline Power flowing through Xiao Cangqing’s body began to stir.
However, before Xiao Cangqing could get a reply from Chu He,
a sudden vortex began to spin silently in the Blood Pool.
At the center of this vortex, an indescribable power was gradually gathering, pulling in the surrounding scarlet blood and sucking it frantically toward the deep, dark center.
Deep within the vortex, a blurry human figure gradually appeared, flickering in and out of sight.
As the blood spun at high speed, the person’s silhouette grew clearer, transforming from illusory to substantial.
Each step of this transformation was accompanied by a heart-pounding sound.
The blood in the Blood Pool rapidly diminished at this astonishing speed.
The once-overflowing crimson was now just a thin layer clinging to the bottom of the pool,
like a husk drained of its Life Force.
And as the blood receded, the figure in the vortex beca ever more distinct, until finally, a complete form stood before everyone’s eyes.
Then, the figure slowly raised its head.
Its eyes, red as the fires of Hell, pierced through the mist and the bloody haze, staring fixedly at the crowd of onlookers.
That gaze held endless resentnt and pain, yet also a chilling cruelty and determination.
Under the stare of those eyes, everything around them seed to lose its color.
All that remained was that suffocating red and a fear so heavy it was hard to breathe.
The crowd looked at each other, their hearts filled with terror and confusion.
They couldn’t imagine what kind of secret was hidden within this Blood Pool, nor why it would give birth to such a terrifying existence.
