The flowers bloomed, the flowers disappeared, and the flowers fell.
The flow of flowers that lost their divine support fell one after another, like a rain of flowers or a colorful snow. They are light and heavy. The blood stains on the ground were spreading slowly, soaking the fallen petals. Kong Lingbei couldn't extricate himself from this tragedy. He hugged her tightly and let the poisoned blood stain his clothes, having no time to care about other things. Kanna-kun gently let go of his hand, leaving Uzuki-kun completely in his hands. After a moment of silence, he looked around.
There are colors everywhere, and some places are sparse, without too many petals. However, Long Miao's body was covered with an extra layer of white flowers. They are not mixed with any other petals, just a single layer of white, like real snow. But there is no snow this season. Kanna-kun smelled a faint fragrance, and it was obvious that it was Sophora japonica. But why Sophora japonica? Kanna-kun doesn’t know and can’t possibly know the answer. These are things that belong to their deceased people.
Blood continuously flowed out of Uoyue-kun's body, carrying a few wisps of dark poison. How could her such a light body hold so much blood? It's really incredible. But no one has noticed this abnormality for the time being. But Kanna-kun keenly discovered that the blood contaminated by Jin Mieya had faded from black and returned to its normal bright red color.
The witch's blood purifies the earth.
The witch's blood spread along the flower carpet.
The blood of Qinghe's broken flowers dyed all the flowers red, no matter what kind or color they were. Soaked in her blood, everything turned red—transparent red, so red that it lost its original color and appeared transparent. It's like a water-red film covering the ground, but it has specific lines, disconnected in some places and connected in others. The flower road has turned into a blood road, and the blood road is glowing with a faint red light, making people feel a bit of "warmth" that is not annoying even on such a summer night.
Everyone fell silent. Such strangeness really made no one dare to act rashly, and Yin Guihong was even more vigilant. After all, it was impossible for this woman to collide with her and Kanna-kun's blades for no reason and pay the price with her life. This blood path extended quickly, even naturally penetrating the barrier created by Han Shang, as if it never existed. But Kanna-kun soon discovered something.
This is a huge, huge magic circle. He recognized it because he had seen part of it. He had seen the similar structure of the magic circle on Yin Guihong's sword. That sword must have been etched with the same kind of magic circle as the resentment that hurt Uoyuki-kun. During the confrontation, Lord Uoyue also saw clearly the specific structure of the magic circle at the cost of blood.
But...that doesn't prove that this is her ultimate motivation. Just to reproduce such a magic circle, Kanna-kun himself can do it. If he can see it, he can also draw it. To be honest, he really couldn't make this magic circle intact in a short period of time, and it didn't make any sense. But Utsuki-kun will never make meaningless sacrifices. Kanna-kun is still observing, after all, all he can see now is only a corner of the magic circle left by Utsuki-kun. It is so huge that it occupies a large area around it.
However, whether it was confusion or nostalgia, they could not be immersed in their emotions for too long. Soon, a strange sound came from far away in the forest - the sharp, garbled calls of birds. It was this shout that brought Kong Lingbei back to reality. He suddenly raised his head and looked towards where the sound came from. At some point, most of the bird demons had returned to that part of the sky, and below was where Xie Zhe and Han Zhang were fighting the evil envoy of greed. The two of them thought something was wrong, because they ran here despite the situation in that area that they had noticed on the way here. If there is another accident over there...
They were all tired, both physically and mentally. I don't know how much strength I have left to fight, and my mood is even worse. They have already lost three friends and don't know if they can handle more. Han Chang hugged Wenying's arms and protected his biological sister with all his strength. Xiaoyu's sudden departure was not accepted by her, and bad news came one after another. Xie Zhe's and Ling Huan's hands were held together unconsciously, and they were trembling together. It was unclear whether Xie Zhe was infected by the emotion or just moved by Ling Huan. But her hand was too hard, and when Xie Zhe noticed that their hands were holding each other tightly, the pain suddenly exploded. Kong Lingbei finally regained consciousness. He stood up again, standing upright, like a real, reliable, monster lord like he had ever done before. Wei Shenwujun held the knife steadily and remained silent from beginning to end, deep and indifferent.
Fortunately, they don't need to rush there anymore, which may be good news. The birds no longer hovered, but flapped their wings away in panic. A large amount of dust came up, as if something was taking shape, and trees fell in pieces. This was a very fast process, and many of the surviving and inhabited birds and beasts no longer hid, but fled outwards with that place as the center. The abnormal movements were getting louder and louder, and something was indeed gathering, forming a strange outline in the dust all over the sky.
The eastern sky began to glow slightly with white light, but it was still some time before true dawn. Everyone slowly raised their heads, raising their gaze higher as the mass grew. With the help of the faint skylight, Xie Zhe squinted his eyes and tried hard to discern what the outline was in the smoke screen composed of loess and sawdust. However, before he came to a conclusion, Wenying's voice reached everyone's ears.
"Then, is that...a human?"
Or something "humanoid".
It is very tall, taller than the oldest tree in the forest. With one step, it can flatten a large area of trees; with a wave of its hand, it can remove all obstacles in front of it. As expected, it walked this way, with every step accompanied by a loud sound. When it gets closer, they can find that the entire body of this "person" has a lustrous skin color, but every piece of luster is very broken. It turns out that it is composed of countless broken things of different sizes.
"Pottery pieces!" Han Zhang's tone was decisive, "Those smashed puppets have been reassembled... We shouldn't ignore their ability to recover. It seems that even if they are broken to this point, this repair spell is still effective. , even deliberately improved to cope with the outcome of defeat..."
Wenying covered her mouth and said, "It's so disgusting..."
She was certainly not alone in feeling this way, and they had every reason to think so. The fragments are all kinds of strange and could be any part of any puppet. Its legs alone consist of many parts that resemble human arms or legs. Although it's just a dummy, it's disgusting enough—or rather, it's because those parts look so much like things that belong to humans. Moreover, their structure has a different kind of exquisiteness, as if the skin of a living person has been peeled off to reveal the complete muscles, and this huge humanoid monster follows this structural rule. They should get out of here first... but don't. The magic circle on the ground, the remains of important people, and the two evil angels that have yet to be solved are all problems. Speaking of the latter, both Yin Guihong and Tao Zhu retreated to a distance without making any noise, communicating privately when no one was paying attention to them.
"We should have taken him off guard," Yin Guihong said coldly. "Unfortunately, there are too many uncertainties. Even the big guy doesn't know where he came from. However, I guess it was the greedy guy who did it... It’s not completely useless.”
Tao Zhu's eyes were frightening. Her eyes were red, as if she had cried or was about to cry, but it could also be because of anger. She kept chewing her nails, leaving them pitted and scratched as if they could leave marks on stones. It was unknown whether her half-cut arm had healed or not. It was just relaxed and drooping, with blood still dripping from it.
"No, no... I have to take Aji's hand..."
"Okay? You go. He's right at Kanna-kun's feet. Remember to say hello to him for me."
It seemed that Yin Guihong was really not completely dominated by his anger. It may be that the people around him have temporarily closed their emotions, and his strength has weakened. He still has a relatively accurate assessment of his status. The most important thing is, knowing that Kanna-kun has seen through his tactics, he feels that there is no point in continuing to fight like this, and he may have to look for a better opportunity. At this moment, the sudden appearance of the giant made of ceramic fragments almost completely attracted their attention. Now is the time to leave.
Before leaving, he took a look at the pottery traces. The man who lost an arm - the male corpse, had a calm smile, just like he always did in the past. But his skin color has turned gray, and he has gradually regained the appearance of a corpse. The source of spiritual power has disappeared. Tao Zhu had better have those original plans to support his actions. Yin Guihong was about to leave, but Tao Zhu ran away on his own, with Tao Zhu following behind her. She might have to give up the arm, he thought. To this woman, her brother is everything to her. It looked like she was going to lose an important part of her forever.
But it has nothing to do with him. Nothing to do with his revenge.
The giant composed of the broken corpses of puppets came closer, and Ling Huan's breathing was trembling. It was still some distance away from them, but it was only a short distance. Kanna Wujun even suspected that it had entered the range of the Broken Flower Blood Array. The giant not only discovered them, but it was more like he had already discovered them before heading this way. It slowly bent down, and a huge shadow covered the sky, turning the slightly bright sky back into darkness. The friction between gravel and pottery pieces made a crunching sound that stung the ears, and dust and leaves rustled down. Then, it slowly lowered its head and turned its huge face towards several people.
It's terrible, it's terrible.
How could something so huge and human-like move? The most important thing is that the eyes of this corpse puppet are not ordinary eyes. Whether human beings or dolls, they all have at least two eyes, and they are all in the eye sockets. What are this guy's eyes? Although they are still eyes - there are countless of them. Eyes with black, brown, and brown pupils belonging to different people are all crowded into those two huge eye sockets. Some of the eyes are colored, probably belonging to monsters. Several eyes couldn't get stuck in such sockets, and fell down, hitting the ground with sticky liquid splashing out, and smashed to pieces.
Ling Huan felt like he was really going to vomit.
