Lord of Deception

Just looking at the changes in front of him, the shadow man knew that the continuous and blazing blood flames were extremely dangerous. He cautiously stayed away and looked at it repeatedly.

When he came last time, the burning mountains were still some distance away from the muddy sea of ​​the troubled world, but now they are connected together. If you look carefully, you can still vaguely see some traces of the river in the middle.

If he had come earlier, he would still be able to confirm, but now, he is completely burned and his appearance has changed, and he can't confirm anything.

Feeling the tongues of fire gushing out, the shadow man quietly retreated a little further, still feeling a little scared.

Thinking back then, there was an extremely powerful being in that place covered by the blood flames. He would not dare to walk from this side even if he came to the turbulent mud sea.

Every time I come here, I have to go in a big circle, first go to another abyss, and then come up from another abyss crack. Every time I risk my life.

Not only do you have to face harsh environments and changing abyss, but there may also be some dangerous monsters.

He didn't want to come here unless absolutely necessary.

However, the person who made him take a dangerous detour every time disappeared decades ago. When he came here again, all he saw was a sea of ​​fire, which has not been extinguished until now.

It is said that two bloody flames fell from the sky, and this place became like this.

The road to the tenth level has not yet been opened, and the world is so dangerous. He dare not think about what will happen in the future.

He didn't have the guts to stop the tenth-level road from opening, and he couldn't stop it, so he could only improve himself as much as possible and prepare for a rainy day.

The one in the muddy sea of ​​troubled times woke up once, told him what to do, and gave him strength.

Now it's time for him to pay his debt.

It's so refreshing when I borrow it, it's much easier than practicing hard. It's not that I don't have to practice hard, but I can see the rewards if I work hard. This is the most important thing.

With his talent and normal qi refining, he would be able to advance to the seventh level before his lifespan is exhausted. This is all because of the smoke rising from his ancestral graves.

It's a pity that now I have to pay off the debt, which is really painful.

In order to get things done, I have done nothing in these years and spent most of my time running for things.

Now I got the crystal ball relatively smoothly, used it again, and got a good tip, so I can finally breathe a sigh of relief.

The one who lent him the power of this crystal ball, Gong Yu, will have a chance of promotion when the tenth level is opened.

He set up an altar on the muddy seaside in a troubled world, changed into a set of robes, and placed the crystal ball in the center.

Then he took a drop of heart blood, a drop of fingertip blood, a drop of essence blood, a strand of heart-protecting hair, a strand of hair, and a tooth, and each pressed a talisman with a blood pattern on the black background.

He knelt down on the futon, broke eight finger bones, formed a strange seal, and recited a ritual in an unknown language.

As the sacrificial inscriptions were recited, wisps of light smoke rose from the incense sticks burning in the incense burner.

The light smoke condenses and never disperses, like weaving, constantly intertwining, outlining a bridge of incense, suspended above the sea of ​​mud in the troubled world, extending all the way deeper.

On both sides of the Qingyan Bridge, fences rose out of thin air, and on the smoke pillars, little people with big heads, ferocious faces, and different shapes were outlined.

In the muddy sea of ​​troubled times, joyful thoughts emerged, and wisps of black air followed the falling smoke, climbed to the bridge of incense, and attached themselves to the little figures where the smoke condensed.

In an instant, the white little smokers turned into black. They squatted on the pillars one by one, opened their dark eyes, and read out their names in a language that was different from the human race.

"Serious ghost."

After reciting the name, the villain's figure completely stabilized.

Then each of the little people with big black heads and different shapes read out their names.

Their figures gradually stabilized and they sat on the pillars.

At the back, one of the villains with a mouth full of staggered sharp teeth said with a strange smile.

"Evil ghost."

However, after it pronounced the name, instead of completely solidifying, its figure became more illusory.

His figure kept changing between the two forms, getting faster and faster, and finally exploded into black gas with a bang.

And if the black energy wants to return to the bridge of incense, it can't come back. There is an invisible obstacle that keeps it away.

It keeps struggling and never gives up.

As dark little figures appeared one after another on the small pillars on both sides of the Incense Bridge, another guy followed in the footsteps of the evil ghost.

A villain chanted "Poop Feeding Ghost". After shouting, it was worse than the evil ghost. It didn't even struggle. A ray of golden light emerged from its body and exploded directly.

The black energy couldn't get on the bridge and wanted to fall back into the muddy sea of ​​the troubled world, but it was also excluded. In the end, it could only roll in the wind, then slowly dissipate and be completely annihilated.

The villain called the evil ghost gave up on going to the bridge and tried to return to the muddy sea of ​​troubled times, only to find that it was also excluded.

He was floating in the air, constantly changing shapes, unable to advance or retreat. Finally, he wanted to escape from the scope of the turbulent mud sea, but at the moment of escape, he was directly annihilated.

Two people in a row died completely and were completely annihilated. The black energy people who were scrambling to board the bridge seemed much more cautious.

The shadow man was furious, but he couldn't move now, and he couldn't stop reciting the sacrificial rites.

Why are these idiots so stupid? He sent back a message before, but he specifically said that the evil ghosts in this world had to change their names to the hungry ghosts because they had to touch the hungry ghosts.

The name is a very important thing, why are there idiots who don't remember it?

He didn't understand the reason for the remaining one, it was obviously fine.

His memorial words were a little hasty, but unfortunately, there was no more black energy on the two small pillars that were annihilated.

Obviously, regardless of the IQ of those little black guys, at least they still understand how to simply seek good fortune and avoid misfortune after witnessing their colleagues climb up and kill the calf.

It's useless for the black shadow people to be anxious, because there is no way for Xiao Heizi to go up and try to kill him again.

…

Yu Ziqing has been very honest recently, falling into a deep pit of research and unable to extricate himself. Xi Yang was the first to suffer.

Yu Ziqing wants to study whether there are any sequelae after this guy was infected by that kind of power. If this guy is a little bit impatient or a little anxious, then needless to say, his mind must have been affected, and he must be detained. Next, continue research.

While he was thinking about it, Wu Shuangge found Yu Ziqing. He held the Hunyuan Golden Dou and placed it in front of Yu Ziqing.

"Master, I feel like someone just wanted to steal my baby."

"Huh?" Yu Ziqing stopped what he was doing: "Tell me in detail."

"I just suddenly had the feeling that someone was trying to steal my baby. I held it and didn't let go, and the person opposite died."

Wu Shuangge's words were unclear, but looking at his nervous look, Yu Ziqing didn't think Sha Gege would make up such a technical lie.

If you want to grab Wu Shuangge's companion magic weapon from a distance, it's not that difficult.

After hearing Wu Shuangge say it several times, Yu Ziqing didn't understand what happened.

At this time, Half Brain couldn't help but poke his head out of the locust tree.

"Someone wanted to steal his name, but the other party's methods were so unconcealed that they dared to steal it openly, and they were annihilated by the backlash."

"Can you steal the name?"

"It's not the name Wu Shuangge, but another name, related to his baby. I can't explain the only name clearly. I don't remember it. I just suddenly thought of it."

Half-Skull pointed at the missing half of his skull and his missing brain, saying that being able to suddenly think of this was already an extraordinary feat.

Ask him to explain clearly, that's impossible.

Yu Ziqing looked at Hunyuan Jindou thoughtfully.

In addition to the name Wu Shuangge and the nickname Sha Gege, there is indeed another name.

Yu Ziqing only mentioned it once, and never mentioned it in front of Wu Shuangge.

After the hungry ghosts were given new jobs, each hungry ghost had a special name, just like the profiteer hungry ghost whose surname was actually Wang.

The profiteer hungry ghost is actually a nickname, but the serious name of a hungry ghost is not this, and it has never been used.

This kind of name may be officially used by hungry ghosts with the same ability in the future.

But for this moment, it is indeed unique and belongs to one person.

What is happening now, Yu Ziqing is not sure about the specifics. He only knows that since he said the name himself, the name already has meaning and is unique.

Ever since changing the evil ghost's name caused a change, Yu Ziqing realized clearly that names are very important.

Clan names are also important.

"In what way can I seize the name?" Yu Ziqing turned around and asked Half Head.

This guy was the God of Sacrifice back then, but now that he is like this and his head is empty, his professionalism in certain matters cannot be matched by anyone.

"I don't remember. I just saw Princess and suddenly thought of this. Anyway, being robbed of your reputation is not a good thing."

When Half-Skull said this, he suddenly froze. He stretched out his fingers and stirred the empty half of his head.

"Sir, is there any rain?"

Yu Ziqing immediately gave him three drops.

Half of the brain threw the rain into his head. As the rain was slowly absorbed, some corresponding information began to appear.

"The consequences of being robbed of a name are miserable. From luck to ability, everything will be slowly taken away over time.

In the end, the person who loses his name will slowly disappear until the end, as if he never appeared.

Or maybe the only person who has always existed is the person who took the name.

The person I am talking about does not refer to the human race, but all living creatures.

A long time ago, someone had succeeded, but I don't remember who it was. He should have been completely successful.

But the vast majority of people who win the title fail, and if they are counterattacked, they will be directly annihilated.

It's not death, it's annihilation, complete disappearance, and no longer exists. "

When Half Brain said this, he suddenly got stuck.

"I do not remember."

"More." Yu Ziqing took out a bottle of nectar.

"No, I just suddenly felt that it was useful, but it was very strenuous and I felt so tired."

Before he finished speaking, half of his head curled up into a ball, he closed his eyes and fell asleep, with the locust tree behind him wrapping him up in it.

Yu Ziqing thought for a moment and handed the bottle of nectar to the hungry ghost next to him.

"When he wakes up, give it to him and let him recover slowly."

Since half of his head turned into a hungry ghost and he no longer wanted to be contaminated by the abilities related to the God of Sacrifice, Yu Ziqing ignored him.

Anyway, it doesn't matter if there is one more hungry ghost. It doesn't matter what he was when he was alive. What matters is how he chooses now.

Unexpectedly, Half Skull is of higher origin and is much more useful than imagined.

Even if you stay as a Baidu envoy, that's fine.

After confirming that there was nothing wrong, Yu Ziqing asked Wu Shuangge not to go out recently. It wouldn't hurt if he put the dirty things away a little later.

As for the other hungry ghosts who have changed jobs, Yu Ziqing is not in a hurry to give them official names. It is a bit unsafe at this stage.

Let’s figure it out later.

He took out the genuine tetracosahedron crystal, fumbled with it, and then put it away.

He couldn't understand the divination, it was not as effective as a fake, and it would only add to the troubles.

The most important thing is that Yu Ziqing believes that the moment he looks at it, even if he can't understand it, the very act of looking at it has an impact.

After thinking about it, Yu Zi calculated the time. Lao Yang should not be so busy anymore, right?

He entered the ring on the seventh floor and summoned the old sheep.

After a while, Lao Yang came up, his footsteps hurried, but not as irritable as last time, as if he wanted to slam the door.

“If you have something to say, say it, and if you have something to say, let it go.”

"Seizing fame, have you heard of it?

Someone or something wants to take away Sha Gege's name, not the name Wu Shuangge, but the name Fu Shi Gui.

It is said that if you succeed, everything will be slowly taken away.

This time, the opponent's blatant robbery was annihilated by the backlash. "

"Huh?" Lao Yang frowned and immediately calmed down: "I've never heard of it, and I've never seen any relevant records. What's going on?"

"Half-Skull is a new hungry ghost that appeared. He was once a god who was not among the gods. He was tortured very miserably and finally starved to death..."

Yu Ziqing explained it and went through it in detail.

Lao Yang looked at Yu Ziqing. He had only been studying in seclusion for a few years. So many things had happened?

"You even dare to accept this kind of stuff?"

"I just mean well."

"Hahahaha, fart, do you believe this is false?" Lao Yang couldn't help but sneer, but after saying that, his laughter suddenly stopped and he looked at Yu Ziqing without saying a word.

Yu Ziqing was a little embarrassed by the sight and sighed.

"Okay, okay, it doesn't matter if I'm kind or not, but I won't stop the starving ghost from turning into a hungry ghost, no matter who it is."

As soon as these words came out, Lao Yang opened his mouth wide.

"Oh my God, what have you been through these years?"

"It's nothing. I told you everything?"

"When did you master the magic of mantra and reach the seventh level?"

"No, I've never seen real... uh..."

Yu Ziqing was suddenly startled, looked around and almost jumped up.

Only then did he realize that he was on the seventh floor. Seven layers of mantra magic had been solidified here. He couldn't talk nonsense here.

Lao Yang's eyes shone as he looked at Yu Ziqing.

"I know that it is impossible for you to cultivate the magic of mantra, let alone the highest level of the seventh level.

What exactly have you been through?

I can't resist the power here, for example, I am you..."

Lao Yang's voice stopped suddenly, and it was obvious that he couldn't say the next words.

Yu Ziqing blinked and whispered tentatively.

"I'm your father."

Yu Ziqing looked around.

"It's broken. My ring on the seventh floor must be broken."

"Don't lie to me. I know you don't even know why you can do it. Tell me what you have experienced in these years? What have you done?"

Lao Yang was impatient, his eyes were gleaming horribly, and he looked like he wanted to slice Yu Ziqing into pieces.

"Actually, I'm a woman." Yu Ziqing tested it again and said it smoothly.

He was confused.

Of course he knows that if his ring on the seventh floor is broken, it will not affect this place.

The problem lies with himself, but he doesn't know why.

In fact, if Lao Yang didn't see the problem, he himself wouldn't even feel anything was wrong.

He told Lao Yang in detail what he had been doing these years, but Lao Yang had no clue after listening.

"I'm going to be in seclusion for a period of time and have no contact with the outside world. I'll wait until I'm done with this period. It shouldn't be a bad thing, but you'd better not use this ability anymore."

Lao Yang warned him several times. After watching Yu Ziqing leave, he walked around the seventh floor several times.

After confirming that there was no problem on the seventh floor, he left confused.

The secret room they were researching was almost finished, and he was so busy that he really couldn't spare the energy to study it.

For now, we are just putting the seventh-floor mantra on the research agenda and will talk about it later.

Yu Ziqing opened his eyes, confused.

He was also thinking about when and what happened that affected this.

…

In the muddy sea of ​​turbulent times, after the shadow man finished reciting his ritual incantation, there were still three things missing on the bridge of incense.

In addition to evil ghosts and poo-feeding ghosts, there is also an even stupider guy who is so courageous that he dares to use hungry ghosts...

The black shadow people all felt that the first two were wronged.

As a result, not only the little black man was annihilated on the spot, but also the small pillars on the Incense Bridge were blown up.

If he hadn't reacted quickly, the entire bridge would have been blown up, and he would have been blown up too, leaving him dead without a burial place.

He has completely given up on building a complete bridge of incense.

There are these extremely stupid and extremely courageous little black men, and the reason why he is alive is because of his wealth.

The shadow man waited quietly. The bridge of incense extended to the depths of the mud sea in the troubled world, and the end was connected to the mud again.

Under the mud, rolling and rolling, it seems that more than one guy wants to board this bridge of incense and the ladder to the sky.

The fierce competition caused the depths of the mud sea in the troubled times to continue churning, and the entire mud sea seemed to be boiling again.

Not long after, a rolling mass of black gas climbed onto the bridge of incense and surged towards the other end.

There was expectation in the eyes of the shadow man. The next step was to pave the tenth level road and wait for the tenth level road to open.

The black energy rolled over and rushed towards the altar. It enveloped the crystal ball but did not retreat.

Instead, it continued to extend, directly wrapping the shadow man in it.

The power from the shadow man's body surged out, and the power from the same source, instead of successfully hindering him at this moment, seemed to be cheering to welcome him.

The shadow man's consciousness was falling and slowly becoming void. He heard a sentence.

"Accepting your sacrifice will fulfill your wish and achieve the tenth level."
