Wu Heng stood in the center of the churning remains of the evil spirit.
The basement had become a small inferno, with constantly flashing blood-red patterns and eerie mist.

The air was filled with a bone-chillingly cold temperature.

The severed tentacles, torn apart by the power of arrogance, continued to writhe on the ground, black blood mixed with the fluid from bursting eyeballs, soaking the rune-covered surface.

This made the red glow on these runes even more pronounced, as if they were being nourished by some kind of power.

Hannah's soul, which Wu Heng had been holding in his hand, was casually tossed aside by him.

Hannah's cleared soul suddenly floated to the ground, stood up, and stared blankly at the collapsing world before her.

This was completely unexpected for her.

In her imagination, and in her final regret, her brother was ultimately possessed by evil, twisted into a monster, and would kill everyone.

It was too late to stop it; the Morrick family was destined for extinction.

She was already in despair and had never held any hope for her survival.

But what's going on here?
What exactly did this descendant of the family do?
Why am I still alive?

At the basement entrance, Randolph, who had been preparing to escape but was bound in place by the chilling aura, was now slumped on the ground, his face ashen.

Dark red blood seeped from the laceration on his left shoulder, staining half of his trench coat.

When the tentacles fully erupted, he thought it was all over.

They tried to escape, but found themselves completely sealed off by some invisible force field.

Moreover, that force field contained a sharp force, and his shoulder was injured by this invisible blade.

But the death he had been waiting for did not come. When he turned around, he saw a strange scene before him.

"What did you do?" Hannah asked, her voice trembling.

"It's just about getting everything back on track."

"Back on track?" Hannah's voice held a mixture of relief and sorrow upon hearing this. "Brother... no, Vidal has completely disappeared?"

Looking at the completely faded and cracked portrait on the altar, the once cold and twisted Vidal was now nothing more than a rotting canvas.

"Your brother disappeared when the ceremony began."

What has vanished is merely a mutated monster.

Wu Heng's double tone disappeared, and Lor Morrick's own deep, authoritative voice returned.

The sound echoed through the cold, bloody stench of the basement, reaching Randolph and Hannah's ears clearly.

"The ritual, which has been maintained for 200 years, continues to be performed under Vidal's obsessive demon-hunting instinct and bloodline replenishment."

"During this period, all the evil energy from the surrounding area over the past 200 years has gathered, which is why there have never been any strange events around the Morrick family."

Furthermore, it is nourished by the power of bloodline.

At this point, Wu Heng's gaze shifted to the massive, still convulsing remains of the evil spirit. "The product of a ritual doesn't dissipate so easily; it's still here."

The two were able to clearly distinguish that Wu Heng used 'it' instead of 'he'.

The representative refers to a monster.

Wu Heng took two steps forward.

Then he suddenly reached out his right hand and plunged it into his own chest.

"what--?"

Randolph was taken aback by this sudden action.

He didn't understand why this young man from the family would commit suicide. Then he saw Wu Heng's hand plunged into his chest; there was no gushing blood, only rolling, lifelike black lines.

Moreover, there was no sign of pain on his face.

Then, Wu Heng removed a heart that was entangled with arrogance.

"This is what this ceremony has always needed."

“A suitable core container that can serve as the heart of the converter,” Wu Heng said as he stepped forward.

"What are you doing?" Randolph was shocked and instinctively reached for his gun, then reached into his lower abdomen again.

Wu Heng ignored him and stuffed the heart he was holding into the chest of the pile of evil spirit remains.

"Roar--!"

The remains of the evil spirit immediately let out a painful roar, and the distorted faces of family members kept appearing in the darkness.

Their faces showed various expressions of struggle and resistance, as they tried to resist Wu Heng's actions.

"Stop struggling."

"Accept your fate."

Wu Heng's words had no effect in dissuading him.

The remaining will within the two hundred and nineteen shattered eyeballs, connected to Vidal's twisted humanity and divinity, are intertwined and are all frantically retaliating.

They wanted to squeeze out what Wu Heng had stuffed into their bodies.

She looks like a grumpy female gorilla.

"Quiet."

A strange rune suddenly lit up in Wu Heng's left eye, and the dark green goat pupil emitted a powerful aura.

The unintentional manifestation of its hypocritical nature was like an invisible giant hammer striking the will of this evil spirit's remains.

hum!
The entire basement space seemed to freeze for a moment.

The chilling air, the groans of twisted evil spirits, the writhing tentacles covering the floor—all the fear and wails that filled this basement were forcibly soothed, regulated, and suppressed by an absolute will.

A moment of silence fell over the scene.

The constant wailing from the remains of the evil spirit and the resistance of its berserk will instantly fell silent, leaving only the instinctive fear and trembling at the existence of a higher level.

Even Randolph and Hannah were momentarily stunned.

"You really don't accept my toast and end up drinking the forfeit."

Wu Heng looked at the chest of the helpless evil spirit's remains, where the various resentments that had been constantly shifting within the evil spirit's body were gradually attaching to the beating heart filled with black ripples.

The pained faces of family members were also reflected in the scene.

On the surface of the heart appeared a bloodshot eyeball, its pupil reflecting the environment of Vidal's Cemetery, its gaze seemingly fixed on that spot.

At this moment, the entire heart had completely changed its appearance, like a lump of flesh from a Tai Sui that was constantly expanding and contracting, covered in asphalt.

And it is constantly expanding, as if it is slowly growing.

At this moment, the black ripples transformed into black chain patterns, which moved like living things, constantly wrapping around the surface of the heart and binding it.

The barbs at the tip of the chain pierced the heart, constantly drawing out the resentment of Veldar's hunting of evil spirits, the bloodline of his family, and the twisted obsession that was being continuously sealed away.

The chains became increasingly secure.

The grooves were carved into the surface of the heart, causing it to stop expanding, gradually stabilize, and become more aligned with Wu Heng's will. (End of Chapter)
