Chapter 178: Chapter 155 Obsession "Imminent Death"_2

Liu Jinmin took out the red booklet and handed it to the tall, thin man.

The man flipped open the booklet, selected five names, pointed to them with his finger, and then handed the booklet back.

Liu Jinmin then tore off the paper with the five names written on it, set it on fire with a matchstick, and placed the burnt ashes into a water bottle.

After shaking the bottle a few times, the small amount of ash surprisingly mixed with a large bottle of water to form a viscous, pale black sludge.

Liu Jinmin proceeded to smear the sludge bit by bit onto the tall, thin man’s face.

"Is this guy the Life God?"

The mud with the believers’ names written on it would only work when applied to the Evil God’s face!

Since the tall, thin man accepted the sludge, he was the "Life God," or more precisely, the "foot" of the Evil God.

When Liu Jinmin finished smearing the black mud from the water bottle, the "Life God" took off his wig and forcefully pulled out a lock of his real hair.

Liu Jinmin, too, endured tremendous pain as he pulled out a lock of his hair, which still had bits of scalp and blood attached to its roots.

The "Life God" mixed the two locks of hair together, then scraped a chunk of flesh from beneath his chin with his middle finger, placed it in his palm, and as the Spell was recited, the flesh began to animate and hop about.

With every hop, a part of the flesh turned into a sticky liquid, and after dozens of hops, the flesh had completely transformed into a crimson liquid.

The "Life God" combined the hair with the liquid, rolling it into a small round ball.

"The Eye of God is now formed, Liu Jinmin, receive the Eye."

As soon as these words were spoken,

Liu Jinmin removed his upper garments to reveal six festering, circular wounds on his chest and abdomen.

The wounds seemed to blink, with the edges of the cuts slowly contracting, and once closed, they gradually opened again.

The "Life God" brought the "eye" made of hair and flesh close to Liu Jinmin’s chest and abdomen.

A sound like "sizzling" erupted, similar to hot water poured onto ice, as white, misty steam enveloped Liu Jinmin’s body.

When the steam cleared, a seventh wound had appeared on Liu Jinmin’s chest and abdomen.

Consequently, he lost his strength and collapsed at the doorway of the house.

"Stand up, go lie down in the church, and when the sun rises, you will receive a more vigorous Life Force, this is the Life God’s reward for you."

After speaking, the "Life God" entered the True Destiny Church, and Liu Jinmin used up the last of his energy to struggle to his feet and stumbled into the church.

"Bang!"

The church doors closed.

...

"That tall thin man, he is the Life God! From the Evil God," Zhou Xuan told Lv Mingkun.

"Damn, what was that messed-up ritual just now? It’s disgusting."

Lv Mingkun, who deals with tragic corpses all year round, found the transaction between Liu Jinmin and the "Life God" too revolting.

"Especially those blood pits, they made my skin crawl!" Lu Mingkun couldn’t help but complain: "I really want to take a knife and gouge out those blood pits on Liu Jinmin, one by one."

"Fifth Senior Brother, wait here for me. I’ll check around the church to find an efficient plan to deal with that Life God."

Zhou Xuan’s original intention was to seek justice for obsession.

The goal of dealing with the "Life God" was to help cleanse the obsession and earn entries into the Totem Hall.

Circling the True Destiny Church, Zhou Xuan walked while sensing the activity of the Wash Away Injustice Talisman at his chest,

He walked from the road to the small hill behind the church, and finally, the Wash Away Injustice Talisman reacted.

Zhou Xuan inspected his surroundings and eventually spotted a figure in the birch forest behind the small hill.

This figure was almost identical to the obsession "Eyeless" Zhou Xuan first encountered, mosaic style—composed of several people, each part of the body having its distinct style.

The vibration of the Wash Away Injustice Talisman on Zhou Xuan’s chest was several times stronger than the first time, almost as if it would leap out of the inner pocket at any moment.

Moreover, this time the obsession seemed to have no impulse to kneel and ask Zhou Xuan for help to Wash away injustice but instead stayed at a distance, watching Zhou Xuan.

"They seem to be overly fearful of the Life God."

To instill confidence in the obsession, Zhou Xuan took out the Wash Away Injustice Talisman from his pocket.

This talisman, invisible to ordinary people no matter how devout, could be seen by the obsession.

Once they saw the talisman, the obsession came to their senses and moved towards Zhou Xuan. They took a few steps and then vanished, reappearing right next to Zhou Xuan and kowtowed.

With the kowtow, hundreds of people emerged from the body of the obsession.

Zhou Xuan felt an astonishing crowd surging in the small hill.

Each of them died terribly, like Mrs. Liu, who lost her scalp, leaving only a bare skull.

Some had a steel rod as thick as a wrist protruding through the chest, with blood flowing along the rod’s texture.

Mrs. Liu and the Ironsmith were also part of the obsession Zhou Xuan confronted.

"Injustice!" Dozens of voices from the obsession reached Zhou Xuan’s heart, and he formed a thought: "Wash away injustice!"

The obsession understood Zhou Xuan’s intention and got up, walking towards the back window of the church; they stopped when reaching the window.

Having experience with cleansing injustice, Zhou Xuan knew they had arrived at the location where the unjust events took place. What remained was to use the "Wash Away Injustice Talisman" and return to the time when the injustice occurred.

Zhou Xuan unscrewed his fountain pen and pressed the tip against the page.

The obsession grabbed the upper part of the pen, guiding its movement, as the ink from the pen tip flowed onto the talisman, spelling out a line of text—August 23rd, 10:15 AM, at True Destiny Church on Stadium Road in Mingjiang Prefecture...
