Heavenly Official Sends Evil

Chapter 940 The Rising Sun Over the Dead Zone

The moment she was pulled away, Luo Caixia's heart almost stopped.

"Save me, save me..."

In a panic, Luo Caixia cried out to Wu Xian for help, but a cold hand covered her entire face. Then, her limbs were also held down by a large hand, and only her left eye could see the outside world through the gaps in her fingers.

At this moment, her heart was filled with fear and despair. She could only watch helplessly as a blurry figure approached in the darkness, half crawling and half walking. The walking half of the figure held an iron hook with a red-hot tip!
This is a hooked-gut demon!

Upon seeing this, Luo Caixia immediately began to struggle violently.

On the way here, Qi Liang had explained to her that the so-called "intestine hooking torture" involved inserting a scorching hot iron hook into the victim's abdominal cavity. The hook would hook the intestines, and the high temperature would cause the intestines to stick firmly to the hook. As the hook was pulled out, the intestines would be taken away from the abdominal cavity. It was said that some victims would suffer for several days before dying a miserable death.

However, there were too many evil spirits holding Luo Caixia down. Even though she had twice the strength of an ordinary person, she couldn't overcome so many ghosts. She could only watch as the hook-gut ghost gradually approached and pierced her navel with that terrifying hook!
"Ah, um, um..."

The excruciating pain caused Luo Caixia's body to spasm, and her screams were muffled, leaving only whimpering sounds.

At that moment, only one thought filled her mind: she regretted not choosing to die in the interrogation area like Qi Liang had…

……

Large beads of sweat dripped from his forehead into his eyes. Wu Xian wiped the sweat with one hand and pressed his cheek to stop his trembling lips.

This wasn't from fear, but from pain.

Wu Xian knew that Luo Caixia had been arrested, but he was unable to rescue her.

Because at this moment, the terrifying being subjected to slow slicing was staring coldly at him. The blood on his mutilated body was even faintly reflecting light, and every piece of exposed flesh on his body seemed unusually 'fresh'.

The two stared at each other for a few seconds. The executioner raised his hand, holding a thin, curved blade three centimeters wide. This was a fish-scale knife used during executions.

Wu Xian stared intently, his palms sweating.

"They're coming! They're coming!"

呲!
The Lingchi ghost cut a thin slice of flesh from his own chest, much like a restaurant slicing an old ham.

The next second, Wu Xian felt a sharp pain in his chest.

Blood seeped from his clothes, forming a crimson patch on his chest.

Wu Xian originally intended to rescue Luo Caixia, since having more help would reduce the pressure on him. However, as soon as he turned his head, a sharp pain shot through his left rib.

He initially thought he hadn't seen the Lingchi Ghost's attack clearly, which was why he was hit. This time, he kept staring at it, hoping to figure out the secret.

But the result of his observation only made Wu Xian feel worse.

There is no attack path and no defense method. As long as the Lingchi Ghost cuts him, the injury will appear on Wu Xian at the same time!

"Woo, woo woo..."

At that moment, Luo Caixia's painful voice came from behind, clearly indicating that she was experiencing some kind of terrifying torture.

Wu Xian gritted his teeth; it seemed Luo Caixia was beyond saving.

So he swung his left hand forcefully, and Luo Caixia's screams came to an abrupt end.

He had just activated the 'White Ghost Poker' that he had given to Luo Caixia beforehand. The vengeful spirit held a long needle used for tattooing, and pierced Luo Caixia's brain through her chin, ending her tormented life.

It was Luo Caixia's good fortune to die at Wu Xian's hands.

So, what about Wu Xian's luck?

It's up to Wu Xian to fight for it himself!
Wu Xian darted out in a flash, slashing at the Lingchi Ghost in the darkness with his knife. Since the Lingchi Ghost's attack was undefendable, he might as well kill him before he could attack!
But as soon as Wu Xiangang rushed over, he found that the Lingchi Ghost had vanished into thin air. Looking to the left and right, he saw that the Lingchi Ghost was still standing in the left corridor, at the same distance as before.

In other words, even a close-range surprise attack won't work!

Then the only option is to run!

Wu Xian cursed under his breath and brandished his Burning Dream Blade as he ran wildly through the darkness.

Behind him were pursuing demons, and in front of him were malevolent spirits blocking his path. Every now and then, the Lingchi Ghost would suddenly slice off a piece of his flesh. This escape was far more difficult than Wu Xian had imagined.

Soon, the crescent moon marks ran out.

Wu Xian only had one more chance to use the Burning Dream Blade, but he dared not use it again, because once he was completely plunged into darkness, he would no longer be able to use the red line to determine the correct path.

He could only struggle with all his might, daring not to make the slightest mistake.

After struggling so desperately, Wu Xian was covered in blood in just a few moments, looking like a blood-soaked figure, with even his curly hair stuck together with blood.

Wu Xian was surrounded by a dense horde of death row inmates and evil spirits.

These evil spirits had greedy eyes, as if they regarded Wu Xian as food on a plate or meat in a bowl, but the scene was unusually quiet, and only Wu Xian's heavy breathing could be heard.

"Ha, hu..."

Wu Xian fought his way through, using every trick in the book, and it wasn't without its rewards.

That is the corpse exorcism mask on the face. This golden mask with four eyes has the power to scare away evil spirits, and anyone who wears it can use it.

However, Qi Liang was unable to activate it and only regarded it as an accessory to enhance the 'corpse transformation technique'.

When Wu Xian was pushed to his limit, he suddenly realized that the way to activate the intimidating power of the Corpse Nuo Opera Mask was actually the same way he had unleashed his killing intent when he possessed the potential of the [Born Killer]!

Only through the intimidating presence of the corpse exorcism mask did this brief period of calm occur.

But Wu Xian knew very well that this silence would last only a few seconds, and once the evil spirits got used to the intimidation, they would soon devour him alive.

Even if the evil spirits don't make a move, there are still giant corpse worms behind them.

"This deadly gate is quite unexpected. That poem wasn't lying; they really don't intend for anyone who comes in to leave alive."

"All three torture devices have now appeared here."

"The place where that hooked-gut ghost was lying was the table where the jailers rested. This place is not far from the exit of the Gate of Death."

"But if I don't use special methods, I absolutely won't be able to get out of here alive, not even if I use the Sacred Fire Talisman that I used to slay the evil spirits..."

"There are three ways I can escape this trap."

"Use the last Divine Incantation Experience Ticket to activate the last True Fire of the Sun Talisman, or use the Rare Spell Talisman - Fire God General Spell."

"I originally planned to save the Divine Spell Trial Voucher for use in my home world, the Solar True Fire Talisman for dealing with bosses, and the Fire Department Divine General Technique was the most cost-effective, but..."

Wu Xian looked around at the fierce and malevolent spirits and had serious doubts about the fighting power of the Fire God General. He doubted that even one Fire God General could escort him to the brink of death.

After all, Wu Xian's condition was already quite poor at this point.

Leaving aside other evil spirits, the three slow-moving ghosts alone slashed him dozens of times. Although none of the cuts hit vital organs, they still caused him to lose a lot of blood.

"Then... let's take a gamble!"

Wu Xian raised the Burning Dream Blade, and a point of golden light shone from the base of the blade.

The golden light grew hotter and brighter, becoming dazzling and blinding. In a daze, it seemed as if he was holding not a knife, but a blazing sun!
The power of the sunlight radiated outwards, melting gold and stone, burning wooden railings, and bending the iron bars red-hot, turning the prison into a scorching hell.

Then, Wu Xian smashed the sun onto the ground.

call!
The power of the True Fire of the Sun talisman erupted, instantly melting the prison floor into magma. A blazing ring of fire exploded around Wu Xian, followed by intense flames rising like solar prominences and spreading in all directions.

In an instant, the evil spirits around Wu Xian were vaporized, not even having time to let out a scream.

Everything around me felt like I was inside Laozi's alchemy furnace.

Covered in blood, Wu Xian stood in the center of the raging flames, worshipped by the fire, like the only golden pill shining in the furnace.
