Li Zhen watched as Zhou Zhanxie climbed over the wall into the cemetery and then up that desolate hill.

They began by offering incense to each grave, lighting small items made of yellow paper, while kneeling and chanting with great devotion.

The sincerity was palpable; the jeans on her long legs were covered in mud, and in many places the fabric was snagged and torn.

Moreover, Zhou Zhanxie didn't just look for graves that looked like they hadn't been visited or cleaned in a long time.

Sometimes, when passing by a small hill, they would do the same thing on the spot, and burn even more incense and small items.

It goes without saying that beneath these hills lie the remains of dozens or hundreds of nameless, abandoned, buried, or burned sites for the purpose of facilitating epidemic prevention and control.

This was quite a troublesome task. Zhou Zhanxie only managed to catch his breath when the moon was high in the sky.

"There's only one more place left."

Zhou patted the dirt off his knees and led Li Zhen to a deep, recessed pit that didn't seem to be naturally formed.

The area was surrounded by charred trees that looked like they had been struck by lightning, and most of them were only half-cut.

"This is the source of the corpse chaos back then, and also the place with the heaviest resentment, which has broken through the boundary between Yin and Yang."

Upon hearing Zhou Zhanxie's words, Li Zhen couldn't help but scan the area with her mental energy. Her eyes immediately narrowed.

He wasn't so shocked by the tens of thousands of rotten, decaying corpses buried deep in the soil.

Instead, they discovered something else.

Just as he managed to grab Zhou Zhanxie's arm to stop him from kneeling, a man in a beige trench coat leisurely stepped out from behind a tree stump that was also charred and only half-destroyed, but still as thick as four or five people could hug.

Zhou Zhanxie's eyes widened, and he was about to give Li Zhen a hint when Li Zhen used even more force to pin him to the spot.

From the moment he scanned the magic circle at the bottom, he sensed that Constantine was likely hiding nearby.

However, after being ambushed by him several times, this kid is now extremely sensitive and perceptive.

Li Zhen's enhanced divine intuition told her that any attack involving extreme speed and physical force would be countered by the new magic that Constantine had laid in advance, as he was now extremely wary of all close combat.

It wasn't a counterattack, it was all about running away.

If this guy retreats to the House of Exile, then we'll never be able to catch him physically again in this lifetime.

"I've been thinking all day about how to get revenge on you."

Constantine's face was contorted with vengeful satisfaction, the last bit of his cigarette dangling from his teeth. "A worthless piece of paper, and you dared to sell it to me for thirty dollars! I only asked for compensation, and you insulted me, my family, and our ancestors as if you had a toilet in your mouth!"

A speck of ash fell with a spark, and Constantine clasped his hands together, forming a magical hand seal.

"I never imagined there was a natural hell cave here. I'll make you taste what it feels like to have your ancestors slap you a few times!"

Constantine ignited the magic circle.

Gusts of cold wind swept past Li Zhen, accompanied by a faint, piercing whistle that seemed to travel across dimensions.

A skeletal arm emerged from the soil beneath the deep pit.

But then everything seemed to be paused; the howling wind disappeared, and even the skeletal arm that had emerged from the ground stopped moving.

Click.

The sudden sound startled Li Zhen, who was focused on manipulating a thread of mental energy to attach to Constantine's back.

Constantine's initial sense of superiority gradually vanished in his terror, but not because he discovered Li Zhen's subtle actions.

"Wait! What's going on? This magic circle isn't supposed to have this effect!"

Having finally realized she had Constantine firmly under her control, Li Zhen subconsciously looked at Zhou Zhanxie. She was met with the same deathly pale expression as Constantine.

Zhou Zhanxie glanced at the mud beneath his feet, his eyes practically popping out of their sockets.

"I clearly sealed off the entrance to this Yin-Yang Cave, so why did it all shatter all at once!"

She looked incredulously at the 'culprit' who had cooperated with her counterpart in the unjust world.

"You dare to directly pierce the barrier between the realms of Yin and Yang?! Aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning?!"

Constantine panicked, seemingly afraid of being implicated in such a huge mess.

"You're talking nonsense! Who would do something like directly opening the gates of hell?! My magic circle could never achieve that effect, and I thoroughly examined it before setting it up!"

The next moment, their eyes locked onto Li Zhen.

"You don't happen to have something on you that can reverse yin and yang, do you?" / "You're definitely not an ordinary person, who are you?!"

First, he raised his hand and pinched, and the spiritual threads attached to Constantine's back immediately bound him tightly.

Constantine's body flashed with various colors of light, but he had already gained the upper hand. Li Zhen's divine and magical power was immediately activated, and she ruthlessly shattered all of Constantine's backup escape methods.

Once it was clear that Constantine had nowhere to escape, Li Zhen turned to answer Zhou Zhanxie's question. "Reversing Yin and Yang? Does the water in Lhasa Lake count?"

Zhou Zhanxie was somewhat bewildered, frantically pulling out talismans in an attempt to fill the suddenly broken yin-yang void.

He didn't even look up when he heard that, and just gave a casual reply.

"What pool? I've never seen it before."

Li Zhen raised a finger, and with his extraordinary spiritual power now surpassing that of the past, he forcefully squeezed out a ball of emerald green flame from his fingertip.

That was a condensation of the unique elements in the pool and his body after he had been immersed in the Lhasa Road Pool for hundreds of cycles of life and death.

A large portion of the Shadow Dimension still exists today.

"This is it."

Zhou Zhanxie looked up and was completely dumbfounded.

"Oh no, how come you have the Water of Reincarnation?"

Constantine, who was lying on the ground like a maggot, turned green with rage.

At this moment, how could he not recognize Li Zhen? He immediately shouted, "Brother! There must be some misunderstanding between us! Release me now!"

Zhou Zhanxie shook his head with a bitter expression.

"It's too late."

As soon as the words were spoken, the ground beneath the three of them suddenly cracked open, countless green lights shot into the sky, and a huge vortex was formed out of thin air, with countless pale white bones condensing in the vortex.

A suction force, like a vacuum, descended, threatening to drag the three of them directly into hell.

Li Zhen withdrew the green flame from her fingertips into her body and smacked her lips.

The spiritual power, said to be capable of transcending dimensions, was instantly released, forcefully resisting the attraction from hell and stabilizing the three bodies in the air in a manner that defied the common sense of physics and magic.

Constantine screamed for a long time with his eyes closed before realizing something was wrong and opened his eyes to take a look.

"I wasn't sucked into the depths of hell?"

Even Zhou Zhanxie's legs trembled for a long time before he finally stood up, patted the air beneath him under Li Zhen's disapproving gaze, and realized that there was indeed an invisible point of leverage under his body.

"You... you actually managed to defy the balance disrupted after the Yin-Yang boundary was broken?"

Li Zhen hooked his hand and grabbed the maggot-like Constantine from the air, listening intently to the increasingly clear roars coming from the vortex. "We can hold on for now, but the gap in hell is still widening because a newly formed behemoth is crawling out from below."

Li Zhen weighed the situation for a moment, then raised the fist of the hand that wasn't holding Constantine, symbolically confirming with Zhou Zhanxie.

"Is it enough to just kill that 'big guy'?"

Zhou Zhanxie's expression suddenly became somewhat subtle.

"The rules of the Yin and Yang realms are becoming blurred. How can you kill those who are already dead again?"

Constantine, however, shook his head while twisting and turning.

"Usually, these hellish demons can only be sealed away, but since you possess divine power, you might be able to burn them to death like holy water!"

Hey! Why are the two of you saying different things?

Li Zhen glanced at Zhou Zhanxie, whose expression clearly concealed something.

pat.


"Yes, you're practically omnipotent now, you do have a chance of killing them!" "They were just ordinary people who died in a horrific war of aggression, subjected to excessively horrific and distorted treatment in their lives, unable to retain even their complete consciousness, lingering here day and night, a collection of wronged thoughts that even the underworld won't accept!"

"They were drawn out by the water of samsara within your body, because samsara is the way they've always dreamed of—a way to escape eternal suffering!"

Upon hearing this, Constantine burst into a brilliant and mocking laugh.

"Dude! Do you know how many lives he's taken in his life? You're not trying to evoke a butcher's pity, are you?!"

He then immediately urged Li Zhen to hurry up.

"Quickly, smash that monstrous amalgamation of wretches! Destroy it! Seal the gates of hell, and let's get back!"

Li Zhen shook off Zhou Zhanxie's obstruction and then punched Constantine in the face.

With a casual flick of his wrist, Li Zhen looked at Zhou Zhanxie expressionlessly.

"Are there any other options?"
