The Terror of the Heavens Begins with Gu

Chapter 56: The Orthodox Sorcerer and Li Zhen's Quick-Acting Evil Way
"died?"

Zheng Nan repeated it, then turned around and hurried into the room to pack his clothes.

"Master, I, Zheng Nan, will never forget your great kindness... I'll take a day or two to rest. Once I'm back to normal, I'll invite you to the best place in Hong Kong Island for a massage. I guarantee you'll be satisfied!"

Walking back to the living room carrying a big bag, Zheng Nan grinned and forced a smile on his haggard face.

"I dare not rest here. I have been running all night without closing my eyes. I am only one breath away from dying of exhaustion."

"I'm going to sleep at a friend's house now. Would you like to come with me, or should I book a room for you in a nearby hotel?"

Li Zhen gestured towards the room: "I need to clean up this pile of things in here. Just rest here for a while."

"Master is worthy of being a master. He can even rest here." Zheng Nan wiped the sweat off his forehead. "Tomorrow... No, it's almost dawn. I'll bring you food as soon as I wake up."

Li Zhen nodded and suddenly said, "When you have time, ask Master Chen if I can meet him and have a chat with him tomorrow night."

Hearing that Li Zhen wanted to see Master Chen, Zheng Nan immediately said, "Of course he has time. Master Chen is in the academy every day drinking tea and teaching his disciples. The last thing he lacks is time. I'll make an appointment for him tomorrow."

Li Zhen stopped talking.

"Master, if you need anything, just call me. The third number on the first page of the phone book is my friend's number."

Without any delay, Zheng Nan went out with his bag.

Watching Zheng Nan's back disappear behind the door, Li Zhen turned around and went back into the room.

Walking to the altar, Li Zhen slowly sat down.

The altar had fallen to the ground, and the offerings were scattered on the ground, rolling all over the room.

The sickly-looking red-eyed bat was hanging upside down on the edge of the fallen altar, its body stained with blood, most of which was vomited from its mouth, and a small part was chicken blood.

Some changes also occurred to Naimi's body.

Originally, the seven orifices of the corpse were sealed, but now the eyes have been forced open, looking even more hideous than before.

If you look closely, you can see that the runes on Naimi's body are not as complete as before, and the runes on the chest are a little incomplete.

Naimi's skin also took on a dark gray color, which was the effect of excessive Yin energy on the corpse.

The red rope that was originally tied to Naimi's feet broke in the middle, and the candle fell in front of Naimi's feet.

The window was wide open and the curtains were blown out.

The room was in chaos.

It can be seen that dealing with Naimi's vengeful spirit is not as easy as Li Zhen showed.

But Li Zhen, who was well prepared, did not capsize here.

The evil ghost born from Naimi's resentment still had little consciousness, which made Li Zhen, who wanted to talk to Naimi, very disappointed. In the end, he could only let the palm leaf whip "eat" the evil ghost to obtain some of Naimi's memories.

This can be considered as an indirect conversation with Naimi, making up for some of the regrets in Li Zhen's heart.

The palm leaf whip that swallowed the evil ghost was placed next to Li Zhen. More small water droplets appeared on the tiny whip, making it look even more sinister.

It seems that as the number of evil spirits devoured increases, the power of this palm leaf whip increases, and it can cause greater damage to the evil spirits.

The magnitude of this enhancement is not obvious, but it is indeed an enhancement.

This is what Li Zhen discovered just now when he was using the palm leaf whip.

Perhaps this palm leaf whip will undergo even greater changes in the future...

Li Zhen reached out and rubbed his eyebrows to relieve the tingling sensation in his consciousness.

Too many fragments of memory rushed into Li Zhen's consciousness, making him feel very uncomfortable, like swallowing several large, indigestible stones. These fragments of memory were so complex and numerous that it would take some time to digest them.

The impact of the memory made Li Zhen's suppressed restlessness surface again.

Only when he was beside Nai Mi's corpse, with the help of the lingering negative energy, did Li Zhen feel relaxed.

As the number of memory fragments he digested gradually increased, Li Zhen finally understood how Naimi had made so many people fall into hallucinations at the same time.

That is a special use of "Fantasy Drop".

By making arrangements around the altar in advance, combined with the hypnotic effect of the smell of certain special drugs and Naimi's own powerful spirit, one can deceive other people's five senses and make oneself or others enter an invisible state that others cannot detect.

Naimi uses this method not only to make himself invisible to ordinary people, but also to easily deceive the sorcerer.

When Naimi was fighting against two evil sorcerers, he used this method to hide the traces of Zheng Nan and others.

Naimi's transformation of Wu Mingjiang's head into a "bird's head" was also based on this kind of illusion.

Not to mention a sorcerer like Naimi, even a master who is several times more powerful cannot make any substantial changes to an object.

Like Naimi, directly turning an object into another object is naturally an illusion.

Although this kind of magic is terrifying, it also has limitations. Not only does it need to be set up in advance next to the altar, but as long as the hidden person makes a sound, the magic will be immediately broken.

From some fragments of Naimi's memories, Li Zhen also glimpsed some differences between himself and orthodox sorcerers like Naimi.

Naimi's memory is filled with the content of hard meditation to strengthen his spirit.

This person has been undergoing this kind of training since childhood to make his will stronger, and only when he reaches a certain level does he start to come into contact with black magic.

In fact, the memory fragments obtained from the little devil of Magusu also contained some contents about the man who had been practicing spells diligently since childhood, mostly to strengthen his will and spirit.

Li Zhen didn’t pay attention to these things before, but they directly became his own experience.

This is of course different from practicing it yourself.

Now, combined with Naimi's memory, this step seems to be necessary in the inheritance of the black magic of the Magusu school.

People like Li Zhen who became a sorcerer in just a few days are considered to be quick learners of the evil ways among sorcerers.

It is not unfair to say that he is the most evil among the evil ones.

When it was almost dawn, Li Zhen opened his eyes.

Although the rest time was not long, he felt relaxed all over, just like he had taken a hot spring bath.

Especially his body. Ever since he used "Corpse Descent", he had always felt tense. Now this discomfort had disappeared, making him feel like he had come back to life both physically and mentally.

"It's time to finish..."

After stretching his arms, Li Zhen stood up from the ground.

Naimi's memory fragments can be digested slowly, but the little ghosts raised by He Mei must be dealt with as soon as possible.

This matter cannot be delayed any longer, otherwise it may cause unnecessary trouble.

Li Zhen walked towards the red-eyed bat and suddenly heard a "click".

He turned his head to look at the place where the sound came from.

The Buddha statue he brought from Naimi was thrown casually in the corner of the room.
