Chapter 290: Chapter 285: The Calamity of Losing Virtue_1

Those dense, blood-red threads were not physical, but a pure, concentrated power!

This power exuded a raw, fierce, sinister, and terrifying aura. As the blood-red threads gathered on the snake’s tail, they seemed to form a throne at first glance.

The large red celebratory cloth was like a dragon robe.

Everyone could sense that there was a powerful and malevolent spirit in the coffin – a demon being created by the ruthless, heartless efforts of the eleven powerful families!

The ease with which it controlled a Tier-5 monster was evidence of its strength.

At the same time, the spirit also noticed their presence, and David, Owen, and Elder Collins simultaneously felt as if they were trapped in boundless darkness, with a pair of blazing crimson eyes suddenly appearing, casting a distant glance at them.

It felt as though their faces had been punched hard!

They suddenly realized that the area around them was filled with an evil, faintly red energy that seemed to cast a layer of blood fog over everything, instilling an involuntary sense of fear!

In the midst of the eerie silence, the coffin suddenly shook violently as an even more frightening, sinister aura descended like a storm.

David, Owen, and Elder Collins felt as if the blood-red vault of heaven was coming crashing down upon them!

Even David, who had reached the Fifth Great Realm, felt his heart stutter: those bastards had really created an extraordinary fellow. Just based on this great terror alone, releasing it into the public would cause mass panic. With a little guidance, it could even incite a civilian revolt!

This thought only flashed through his mind briefly. Even though David was weighed down by a heavy sense of fear, he still resolutely stood forward, after all, he had the highest cultivation among the four.

Following that, Owen casually raised his hand and pressed it down on the coffin – secretly directing the responsive object through his spiritual veins and into his palm.

The coffin suddenly stopped shaking!

The blood-colored vault of heaven instantly cleared up.

The faintly red power that pervaded the surroundings dispersed completely.

That powerful feel of terror that had weighed on their hearts vanished without a trace as well.

The sinister spirit within the coffin had inexplicably become docile and low-key.

At this time, Elder Collins and his party returned. Although they were astonished to see Owen and the others, they quickly reacted. Elder Collins summoned his Flying Fish Swords – which was the very scene Sophia witnessed on the other side of the cliff.

Owen casually raised his hand, and an ancient-bronze Sky-swallowing Beast leapt out. Although it was initially the size of a fist, it instantly grew larger than the Flood Dragon Python. With just one swallow, all traces of spiritual light faded, and darkness returned to the gorge.

Elder Collins was bewildered: What is this thing?!

Owen urged the Sky-swallowing Beast with his palm, making it spit the Flying Fish Swords, which shot directly at Elder Collins!

Caught off guard, Elder Collins was seriously injured by his own weapon.

However, Owen was extremely satisfied. After patting the Sky-swallowing Beast, he found it to be very useful, easily defeating a cultivator of the Fifth Great Realm. At the same time, the Immortal Binding Rope crawled out, wrapping around the injured Elder Collins and his Flying Fish Swords together.

Elder Collins was completely puzzled: Who is this person? He managed to suppress the demon being in the coffin with one hand while easily defeating a cultivator of the Fifth Great Realm with the other!

Why hadn’t he heard of such a figure in the Horizon Bureau before? He had thought that no heroes existed in the Horizon Bureau besides Abner Lane!

David felt even more awkward. When he saw the coffin, his hand had instinctively rested on his blade hilt. Yet, with just a casual push from Lord Algernon, the powerful spirit in the coffin became meek and quiet.After that, Elder Collins showed up, and David’s knife was already halfway drawn: the Fifth Great Domain! It was time for David to show his power; only the Fifth Great Domain could fight against the Fifth Great Domain.

When Elder Collins released the Flying Fish Swords, David knew a powerful enemy had arrived. Still injured, he wasn’t very confident about defeating this opponent.

Just when he was about to risk it all, Lord Algernon raised his hand again, not only taking away the Fifth Great Domain’s Magical Instrument but also re-releasing it to severely injure David!

There was nothing he could do about it.

His knife was already halfway drawn; was this going to be a situation of a shamefully drawn knife that can’t enter the scabbard?

Fortunately, David saw that there were several Cultivators behind Elder Collins. He roared out, unsheathing his battle knife and venting all his frustrations on them, resulting in a series of screams...

Sophia saw it all from afar - the bright knife light. The Fifth Great Domain still had some impact after all.’

Owen Bertram nodded to David and praised, "Not bad."

David was very upset; what was not bad? A Fifth Great Realm Cultivator was just used to clean up these small fries?

Feeling irritated, David ordered Calvin: "Go and tie these people up!"

Why would Calvin listen? Only Lord Algernon in the room could command him. I must also discern if he’s giving disorderly commands!

Look at my refined and cultured aura, Humph!

Calvin turned a deaf ear, leaving David embarrassed. It was only now that the true shame of the knife that couldn’t enter the scabbard happened.

Thankfully, Nathan Lane came to the rescue, displaying his expertmanship as a County Government Office enforcer, fiercely using the Chain Lock to tie up the Cultivators who were barely hanging on to their lives.

Owen Bertram didn’t bother with these matters, recalling the Sky-swallowing Beast. He lightly tapped the coffin three times with his other hand, pacifying the Ghost Spirit inside. Then, even though he knew the answer, he asked the three of them, "This Demon Beast took an attacking posture; there might be victims up front. You guys go and check; if there are any innocent people injured, do your best to treat them."

After thinking for a moment, he took out a bottle of Healing Spirit Elixir he had personally refined and threw it to David.

David caught it, tilted his head, and glanced at Owen Bertram, making him feel a bit uneasy. Glaring, Owen Bertram asked, "What’s the matter?" David curled his lips and walked away, recalling when he was seriously injured fighting Adair Barton, Owen Bertram didn’t give him any Spiritual Pills at that time. Hmm.

Owen Bertram didn’t follow; he still had to suppress the Ghost Spirit in the coffin.

Moreover, Magpie had just seen that Sophia was indeed in a bit of a disheveled state, with minor injuries on her body, but it was nothing serious.

Kent King had already confessed: these eleven families had secretly colluded when Adonis Dunn issued the new policy. Their plan in Black-water County started earlier than York Harrison’s allegiance to King IIias in Casterly County.

Furthermore, York Harrison’s position in his clan was not high enough to know about this secret. That’s why Owen Bertram’s initial threat to use York Harrison’s arrest to blackmail York Harrison didn’t work.

As County Magistrate of Black-water County, Kent King provided a "protective umbrella." During this period, the number of illegally trafficked slaves to Black-water County had increased hundreds of times, and they were all young girls, around ten years old!

One thousand and eighty young girls - they wanted to refine a "Mesmerizing Demon"!

Since ancient times, the "crocodile," known as Demon Beings, were considered a symbol of a ruler’s immorality and would bring endless disasters if they appeared. The Mesmerizing Demon they refined by harming young girls had many evil abilities.

The eleven families had deep roots and contributed a portion of their treasures to use the Ancient Well at the Harrison Clan’s old residence to "select" young girls, choosing the most suitable one.

Then they set up a cruel "Altar" in the Lifeless Gorge to completely refine the girl’s Corpse into the Mesmerizing Demon.
