Man is in the midst of the mysteries of the spirit, and the flesh is infinitely deduced

Yun Wuhen is an indispensable part of this plan.

"I understand."

Having gone through so many things, Yun Wuhen responded decisively.

Soon, Yun Wuhen selected two women from the team, namely Chen Xiaoya and a female cultivator named Lin Shan, both of whom were his loyal fans.

Both women were of good looks, a little older, with plump figures and a mature charm.

Standing next to the petite Yun Wuhen, An Le inexplicably recalled the little Mala he had seen in his previous life...

This is not because Yun Wuhen is partial, but the two women are indeed the strongest people in the team after him.

Anle put Yun Wuhen aside for the time being, and selected the relatively reliable Bai Xianyou and Gu Qiutong, and asked the rest of the people to wait there.

At the altar, those who are not strong enough will only be a burden.

******

After making preparations, the group of six began to move forward.

Lin Shan noticed that Anle's attitude towards Yun Wuhen was very indifferent, not as respectful as ordinary people.

She frowned slightly, somewhat displeased, and whispered to Chen Xiaoya.

"Who is this person? How dare he be so rude to Master Wuhen?"

Chen Xiaoya put her finger in front of her lips and pretended to keep quiet: "Be careful with your words!"

She observed more closely.

Many cultivators in the crowd just now were extremely respectful to Anle, with a hint of admiration in their attitude, even Bai Xianyou and Gu Qiutong were no exception.

This shows that the ghost-faced man’s strength might be even greater than what was previously rumored about him.

'Of course, it's still not as good as Wuhen.'

Chen Xiaoya thought to herself.

She just felt that there was no need to provoke a strong enemy at this juncture, and that overcoming the difficulties together was the top priority.

Anle didn't care about the two women's thoughts at all and looked straight ahead.

The gray-black altar was already in front of them.

When I stepped onto the first step of the stairs, everything was calm, as if nothing had happened.

But Anle and Yun Wuhen, who were the most powerful, vaguely felt that the aura of this altar had undergone subtle changes.

It seemed as if... there was a pair of eyes watching them!

I've already...burned it out! I found that Wu Dalang is really good, and I accidentally read it for too long...

Chapter 145 Blood Demon

Tread...tread...

The sound of footsteps on the steps echoed in this altar, seeming somewhat ethereal and eerie.

Everyone walked up the stairs, looking around vigilantly, their spirits tense.

But in contrast, the steps were empty and very quiet, with no trace of any evil.

But the more this happened, the more solemn the expressions on people's faces became and the more serious their moods became.

There must be a demon in the abnormal situation.

Behind this calmness, there must be greater dangers hidden.

We walked up a little further.

The steps here seem to have undergone subtle changes, from the original rough rock to a jade-like material with a soft texture, and the surroundings seem increasingly quiet, with only the ethereal echo of footsteps on the stairs.

Anle turned his head and looked in the direction he came from.

The many monks at the foot of the altar were no longer visible, only a group of small black dots remained. The buildings in the ruins in the distance were not very clear, as if covered by a layer of gray mist.

At this time, Gu Qiutong exclaimed in surprise.

"Look, that's..."

I saw two conspicuous objects appearing on both sides of the stairs above. Judging from their shapes, they looked like two huge peaches?

As he got closer, Yun Wuhen frowned.

Lin Shan and Chen Xiaoya's expressions were not very good either. Their chests and abdomens were churning slightly, and they felt a little like vomiting.

At first glance, this thing does look like a peach. It is half a person's height, with a bright pink color, and a glow flowing around it, making it look like a magical fruit.

But people could immediately see that underneath that thin layer of skin, there were several human bodies!

The arms, thighs, neck, head... were all twisted and blended together at incredible angles, crowded under the skin, bulging into the shape of a peach.

Even the outer skin has the texture of corpse oil, probably because it is made of human skin.

"They...are laughing?"

Bai Xianyou said in a trembling voice.

Although many of the body parts were highly twisted, as if even the bones had melted, they were very... fresh!

There was no sign of decay, and each face was lifelike, with a smile of enjoyment and an intoxicated look, as if they were not dead but just immersed in an endless and beautiful paradise.

The scene was so strange that even though everyone had survived in the ruins for such a long time, they couldn't help but feel secretly frightened.

The only two people who remained calm were Anle and Yun Wuhen.

However, Yun Wuhen was just pretending.

Anle was the first to walk to the peaches and said to the others, "This is just a dead thing, there's no need to panic."

Seeing his calm demeanor, Lin Shan's opinion changed slightly: "This guy is quite courageous."

Everyone soon discovered that although the peaches looked strange and scary, they remained motionless and did not seem like evil spirits that would attack them.

“Why is it placed here?”

Chen Xiaoya couldn't help but ask, "Is it for decoration, or does it have other uses?"

The sudden appearance of such a thing on the empty stairs naturally made people feel very strange.

Gu Qiutong suggested: "No matter what it is, just burn it! This thing is scary just by looking at it."

Bai Xianyou disagreed and shook his head.

"If we burn it on this altar, it might bring about unknown dangers. Since it is harmless for the time being, we might as well leave it alone for now."

Both of them have a point.

At this time, Anle said, "Burn it."

Bai Xianyou heard this and stopped refutation: "Then burn it!"

Seeing this scene, Yun Wuhen and the other two were quite surprised.

Lin Shan thought to herself, "I thought that although these two people respected Anle, they were still on a relatively equal footing. Now it seems that they completely follow the Ghost-Faced Man's lead."

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but be curious about what kind of personal charm this ghost-faced man had that could make these two famous geniuses so convinced.

After a spiritual fire, the two peaches continued to twist and deform, and the smiles on those people's faces slowly turned into painful and hideous ones.

A sharp and piercing scream was heard.

"It's really weird."

Seeing the peaches melting in the flames, Yun Wuhen's heart skipped a beat and he felt something was wrong.

"Ok?"

He glanced at everyone and counted silently in his mind.

"One, two... five, six..."

"seven."

Yun Wuhen finally counted himself in, feeling a little relieved: "Yes, there are seven people. It seems that I was just overthinking."

Anle remained calm and said calmly, "Let's go."

******

The group of seven continued to move upwards.

Strangely enough, the altar doesn't look very high when viewed from below, but when walking on the stairs, the circular platform on top seems particularly far away, and the distance never gets shorter.

Not long after.

A man noticed this and said in surprise: "Are we... just going around in circles?"

"how is this possible?"

Bai Xianyou couldn't believe it. If they were in a complex flat environment, they might just be circling back and forth, but now, there was clearly only one staircase leading to the higher place.

"Friend Xue has a point."

Gu Qiutong said, "Perhaps there is a special secret array or spell that distorts our perception, making us appear to be moving forward while actually moving backward, which is why we are unable to reach the top of the altar."

Yun Wuhen held his chin and said after thinking: "In this case, why not leave a mark and give it a try."

The space outside the altar seemed to be covered by a layer of mist, making it difficult to judge its exact height.

"let me."

The blood demon volunteered, and a piece of his finger turned into blood and fell on the steps.

"As long as I am alive, these bloodstains will not disappear."

There was a flash of amazement in Chen Xiaoya's eyes. This method was really new no matter how many times she had seen it.

Yun Wuhen also praised: "Brother Xue, your blood secret technique is really extraordinary."

"It's just some small tricks, not worth mentioning."

The blood demon responded with a narrowed eyed smile.

He has an ordinary appearance and would be hard to spot in a crowd, but he has an approachable temperament.

Yun Wuhen felt quite guilty.

He had believed the rumors from others and thought that the Blood Demon was a despicable, insidious and cunning person, so his first impression was extremely bad.

But after personal contact, Yun Wuhen discovered that Blood Brother was not that kind of person at all. Instead, he was open-minded and kind-hearted, and was truly a chivalrous man with upright character.

"Friend An, what are you looking at?"

Just as everyone was about to continue moving forward, the Blood Demon noticed that Anle was still standing there and asked hurriedly.

Anle's lips curled up into a light smile, which was very cold: "Nothing."

Having said that, he followed.

******

"really……"

Looking at the bloodstains on the steps, Yun Wuhen and the others looked grim. They had been going up all the time, but ended up back at this marked location.

"Now how to do?"

Bai Xianyou asked a little impatiently.

If they encounter a strong enemy or evil spirit, they will not be afraid at all with their strength.

But at this time, they didn't even see the shadow of the enemy, and were just trapped on these endless steps.

"This can't go on like this."

Yun Wuhen frowned.

The strange and evil air on the altar was much denser than that on the surface, and it was constantly eroding the spiritual power in their bodies. People like Yun Wuhen and Anle, who had deep spiritual power, were still okay, but Lin Shan and the other two might not be able to hold on for even half a day.

"Could it be that I can only use that..."

When Yun Wuhen was hesitating, the Blood Demon came over with a serious expression and whispered in his ear.
