Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 2734 Cruel

Tie Hongyan asked: "What effect will this have?"

"Doing this can cause the throat of the controlled person to bleed. When the alchemist uses the spell, the person whose mind is controlled will feel that his neck is being strangled." Tie Wandao said.

Tie Hongyan had felt the cruelty before, and this feeling was even more obvious now. She recalled the bloody throat of the blue-armored man who was tortured to death. She felt depressed, but she still did not show any sympathy in front of Tie Wandao. Instead, she looked curious and asked Tie Hongyan: "Why do you want to make the throat of the controlled mind bleed?"

"Under the effect of the spell, what the controlled person sees will be different from what others see. The controlled person will see various bloody skeletons under his feet, and will feel that he is stepping on those bloody skeletons. The controlled person will feel more and more pain when walking down the stairs, and will feel that both his body and mind are out of his control. Fear and pain will inhibit the energy in the controlled person's body, but this inhibitory effect is limited. The Taoist priest was worried that he could not control it, so he let the controlled person bleed. When the controlled person's throat bleeds, the energy in the controlled person's body will gradually dissipate out of the body along with the blood spurting out of the throat." Tie Wandao replied.

When Tie Hongyan heard Tie Wandao say that he would see all kinds of bloody skeletons under his feet and feel that he was stepping on those bloody skeletons, the cruel scenes of the blue-armored people being tortured to death that she had seen before kept appearing in front of her. She felt more and more uncomfortable, but she knew that she could not show it in front of Tie Wandao. At this moment, she said nonchalantly: "Why didn't the Taoist design it so that the throat of the controlled person would spurt blood from the beginning? Is it an irreplaceable process to use the fear and pain of the controlled person to suppress the action of the qi in the controlled person's body?"

"Yes." Tie Wandao said, "I asked Master Li that at the time, and Master Li told me that it would be too late. If the master wanted to make the controlled person's throat bleed, the ritual must be performed for a certain period of time. The master could not immediately make the controlled person's throat bleed when he just stepped onto the stone stairs."

"Oh." Tie Hongyan nodded and said, "I see. The Taoist priest was quite thoughtful. When the person whose mind was controlled had blood spurting out of his throat, could he see the blood spurting out of his own throat?"

Tie Wandao nodded and said, "Yes, I can see it. That's what Li Fangshi said."

"You can also see those bloody skeletons?" Tie Hongyan asked, "Are the bloody skeletons only visible to the person whose mind is being controlled?"

Tie Wandao replied: "The bloody skeleton is indeed only visible to the person whose mind is being controlled. The person whose mind is being controlled cannot make a sound, and the blood column that spurts out of his throat is very thin, and it sprays in front of that person. When the blood column falls on the stone stairs, the parts of the stairs that are not stained by blood will instantly turn blood red, and the entire staircase will be stained with blood."

"It was obviously an illusion for the person whose mind was controlled to see the entire staircase covered in blood. While seeing the illusion, could the person whose mind was controlled also see the blood spurting out of his own throat?" Tie Hongyan asked.
