What's behind the crack?

No one could tell Lin Yue this.

Perhaps what lies ahead is an even more terrifying dead end.

Perhaps it's a one-in-a-million chance of survival.

But Lin Yue has no choice now, and no time to hesitate.

Even though a terrifying aura emanated from the crack, and the evil spirit inside the house had crawled out from there.

He had to go in too.

······

After entering the crack.

Lin Yue felt her vision suddenly turn red, and then everything became clear.

A bizarre world thus appeared before him.

There is no light here, not even a sliver of moonlight.

The only thing that can be seen in the hazy darkness.

Everything was covered in ashes.

Everything was twisted and contorted, entangled by withered vines that resembled tentacles.

Everywhere you look, there is a scene of ruin and decay.

The paint on the walls was peeling off, the floorboards were warped and cracked, and everything was a grayish-white color, as if it had been dead for a long time.

Although this place looks no different from the villa he just saw, he is now standing in the exact same spot as in the bathroom, with the entrance to the crack right next to him.

But it gives the feeling of instantly traveling to tens of thousands of years into the future, a future of despair and hopelessness.

"Cough cough cough—"

Lin Yue covered her mouth and nose, and couldn't help coughing several times.

There's so much dust in the air here that it's almost condensed into floating, fluffy particles that are constantly moving around in front of you.

It causes an itchy sensation from the tip of the nose to the throat, to the respiratory tract, and to the lungs, as if a hundred claws are scratching at it.

That is to say, he is in relatively good health.

If an asthma patient comes here.

It would probably take less than ten seconds for them to suffocate from the dust here.

Lin Yue's eyes quickly scanned her surroundings.

I was utterly shocked by all of this.

"How could the world behind this crack be like this?"

Seeing these scenes of devastation, the dust covering everything, and the rampant growth of unknown vines, a thought arose in his mind—this place is dead.

Squat down.

He touched the only vine that could be called "living".

Lin Yue felt that the thing was unusually hard, like touching a stone.

"Where does this thing grow from?"

Lin Yue stood up, putting aside her curiosity, and thought to herself, "I'd better hurry up and leave. This is that evil spirit's lair. Who knows when it will come back? I have to find another way out before it finds me."

However, whether this passage exists remains to be seen.

We can only try our luck now.

If so, then of course everyone would be happy.

If not, then death is truly the only option...

The instant this thought arose.

Lin Yue shook her head violently.

His eyes suddenly hardened.

Don't think about these things; they're pointless and only destroy your courage!

Right now, I only need to think about one thing: finding a second way out.

Lin Yue stepped out of the bathroom in this world.

The corridor outside was exceptionally dark and quiet.

He took a few steps, and even the slightest footsteps sounded like a booming bell in this eerie place.

However, after walking about ten steps...

Lin Yue suddenly felt dizzy, the world spun before her eyes, and the scenery around her was distorted wildly.

He quickly grabbed the wall to keep from losing his balance and falling to the ground.

"Whoosh—whoosh—"

I took several deep breaths with difficulty, and a large amount of dust rushed into my mouth, as if it had caked up the inside of my mouth.

Lin Yue covered her forehead, her face pale.

It was as if he had just recovered from a serious illness.

Although this change came suddenly.

But he quickly figured out why.

"Everything here exudes the same terrifying aura as evil spirits. The aura emanating from that scarlet crack is just a tiny bit of 'scraps' coming from here. It seems the situation is even worse than I imagined."

Even with my willpower attribute of 1.5, I definitely wouldn't be able to stay here for long if I stayed here for too long.

While Lin Yue was working hard, a thought suddenly occurred to her.

The system light screen was brought to my eyes.

He stared blankly at the line above.

Free attribute points: 0.1.

Move your finger across the light screen.

He wants to add those extra attribute points to willpower.

In this way, the mental pollution will definitely be reduced to a lesser degree.

However, just as he was about to make a decision...

Lin Yue gave up after all.

It's not time to use it yet.

He turned off the system screen with a complicated expression.

This is what just awakened the Crimson Rift. And what exactly is this system that inexplicably appeared beside me?

He was in a state of unease.

Just then, heavy footsteps suddenly came from the corner of the corridor ahead.

"Thump—thump—"

A world of death where no living people should exist.

But then the sound of living footsteps could be heard.

Lin Yue tensed up, immediately focusing her attention on the shadow ahead.

He thought incredulously, "There are other people here? How is that possible?"

The footsteps sounded quite heavy in the darkness.

The person who came looked to weigh at least 200 pounds.

Lin Yue didn't know whether the visitor was human or ghost.

They could only carefully retreat back into the bathroom and hide behind the door.

He covered his body with the door panel, so he couldn't see what was outside.

All that could be heard were heavy footsteps, one after another.

"Thump—thump—"

The footsteps grew closer.

Just then, a second set of footsteps was heard.

Lin Yue was startled.

"Thump—thump—"

The second step seemed to follow right behind the first.

But this is just the beginning.

After those two footsteps appeared.

The third, the fourth... until there were seven steps, then the number finally stopped increasing.

The footsteps were not in sync.

However, they appeared extremely stiff and heavy, lacking any sense of lightness like living people, as if a group of corpses were walking.

Lin Yue was under immense pressure, and her palms were covered in cold sweat.

Seven?

In the 817 murder case, Qin Ziwang's parents were the ones who killed seven victims.

Could the demons roaming outside be the victims turned into evil spirits?

But isn't this too many?

"I'll go out after they leave, otherwise seven evil spirits would be too terrifying."

I couldn't even handle one before, let alone seven.

"Thump thump thump—thump thump thump—"

The sound of hurried footsteps gradually approached from a distance.

Lin Yue's heart was pounding faster and faster; she just hoped these terrifying guys would leave soon.

But just as the footsteps reached the bathroom door...

So all the sounds stopped.

His hands were clenched into fists, and his eyes were fixed on the gap in the door frame.

There stood a rotten, blackened foot, swollen like a sponge.

All seven ghosts stopped in front of the bathroom door!
