Chapter 17 Psychic Entry Completed
Xu Yi looked at the ghosts in the room and frowned more and more.
If it were ordinary ghosts, no matter how many there were, he wouldn't be worried, but it was different if it were replaced by evil spirits. Evil spirits already had the ability to actively kill people.
He looked at the blood stains on the glass shards in the bottle, and one drop of blood turned dim.
This is not an illusion. The energy contained in blood can exorcise demons, but this energy cannot be endless. When the energy is exhausted, the blood will lose its effect.
Xu Yi quickly tightened the bottle cap with a distressed look on his face.
Why use a butcher's knife to kill a chicken?
His mysterious blood was obviously a "high-end product", and it would be too wasteful to use it to deal with these ghosts. If there were no other means of exorcism, he would not use it.
"It seems that we need to find ways to enrich the means of exorcism!" Xu Yi secretly made up his mind.
After all, blood is related to the golden entry. He plans to use it for research in the future, but he cannot squander it all.
While Xu Yi was thinking, Martin had already opened his eyes, and he was filled with regret at the moment.
He sneaked into the house and didn't see Xu Yi. Instead, he met Maria first.
Just when he was confused, the other party suddenly pounced on him.
He didn't pay much attention at first, after all, Maria's weak appearance was deeply rooted in his mind, but he soon knew that he was wrong, and how wrong he was.
He didn't last more than three seconds before he was knocked unconscious by Maria!
When he woke up, he found that he was tied to a pillar and his hands were pierced. But the most terrifying thing was that he was surrounded by a group of ghosts.
Fear overwhelmed him like a tide, and he would rather meet the ogre himself.
At this moment, he saw Xu Yi, and a flame of hope ignited in his pupils. He used the last strength in his body and shouted at the top of his hoarse throat, "Help!" Xu Yi realized when he saw Martin wake up
. When something went wrong, he was about to withdraw when Martin shouted.
The dense ghost figures turned around together, Xu Yi could still remain calm, but Arent was as frightened as a rabbit and ran towards the back of the corridor.
Maria hid behind Xu Yi and grabbed the corner of Xu Yi's clothes, her face pale.
"Don't be afraid!" Xu Yi grabbed Maria's white arm and comforted her.
Arent, who ran out, suddenly let out a scream and rushed back at a faster speed because the end of the corridor was blocked by a bandage ghost.
Ghosts are not like ordinary people who need to use their legs to walk. Xu Yi just blinked, and the next second, dense ghosts surrounded them.
The cold air hit his face, and Xu Yi almost couldn't help but open the wooden bottle again.
At this moment, the long-disappeared burnt-black ghost figure suddenly appeared and blocked Xu Yi. Xu Yi was slightly startled when he looked at the burnt-black ghost figure. To be precise, it was the back of the psychic boy Jonah.
Is the other party helping him?
At the same time, the system's voice sounded.
[Psychic entry experience +13, experience overflow, current progress: 100/100. ]
[The psychic entry is being instilled...]
A cold current poured in from the Tianling Gai, Xu Yi shuddered, and he was immersed in a mysterious and mysterious feeling.
When he was being baptized by the entry, the charred ghost suddenly reached out and grabbed his wrist.
Xu Yi was suddenly startled and wanted to struggle, but he soon stopped.
[The injection of homologous energy is detected, and the psychic entry changes. The entry will be changed from "White Rare" to "White Epic". 】
Entry upgrade?
Unexpectedly, there was such an unexpected gain, and Xu Yi was overjoyed. The entries were divided into three small levels, "common", "rare" and "epic".
Before Xu Yi had time to check the changes in the entry, his eyes suddenly flashed for a moment. When his vision returned, the scene had changed.
He stood in the hall of the funeral home. In front of him was a large round table made of solid wood, with a group of people sitting around the round table.
He saw an acquaintance in the crowd, a psychic boy named Jonah whom he had seen in old newspapers.
At this time, Jonah stretched out his hand and shook it with the people on both sides. The other people's movements were consistent, and their hands formed a circle. Jonah's eyes tightened, as if he was performing some kind of psychic ritual.
Behind the round table, Xu Yi also saw the original owner of the house, a middle-aged man wearing round glasses with a gloomy expression.
The original homeowner took out a wooden box, opened it, and placed it in the center of the table.
Xu Yi frowned and stared at the things in the wooden box. They looked like dry leaves, oblong in shape, but upon closer inspection, they didn't look like them. They didn't have the unique veins of leaves.
The channeling went very smoothly at first, but halfway through, the boy Jonah suddenly looked in pain, his body trembled violently, he opened his mouth suddenly, and white gelatinous substance gushed out from his mouth and nose.
"Ectoplasm!"
A word suddenly flashed in Xu Yi's mind.
Ectoplasm is a well-known name in the psychic world. It can only be born in the bodies of psychics with strong spiritual senses and can enhance psychic abilities.
The ectoplasm of a very small number of psychics also possess some strange abilities.
Ectoplasm poured out of Jonah's mouth and nose, floating in the air as if they were not affected by gravity.
Although this scene is strange, it is not out of control. The original homeowner stood quietly aside.
Xu Yi suddenly turned his head and looked at the box in the center of the round table. He felt a strong resentment pouring out of the box.
When resentment meets ectoplasm, it is like gasoline meeting sparks, turning into a blazing flame in the blink of an eye.
Exploding flames splashed in all directions, falling on people and igniting them in an instant.
These people spend a lot of money to come here to channel spirits. They originally wanted to see their deceased relatives again, but they never expected to suffer such suffering.
The burning people were like torches. They let out shrill screams and ran in all directions. The flames ignited everything around them, and the whole house was enveloped in flames.
I don't know if it was luck or other reasons, but the original homeowner and Jonah were not affected by the flames.
The original homeowner picked up Jonah and ran towards the corridor.
Their movements seemed to attract someone's attention. Those who were ignited by the flames turned back sharply, stared directly at the backs of the two people, and rushed towards them quickly.
Ordinary people would be ignited by the flames and would lose consciousness long ago from the pain, let alone chase Jonah and the two. Xu Yi knew very well that all this was because of that resentment.
It was the resentment that ignited the ectoplasm, and it was the same resentment that controlled the fire zombies to attack Jonah and the two.
The fire corpses were so fast that the original homeowner knew they couldn't escape. He glanced at Jonah, then resolutely hugged the wooden box and ran towards the attic.
The fire corpse chased the original homeowner and ignored Jonah who fell aside.
"The original homeowner was trying to lure away these burning corpses!" Xu Yi, as a bystander, instantly understood what the other party was thinking.
Jonah stared blankly at the back of the original homeowner. It wasn't until the scorching flames spread that he came back to his senses.
He ran towards the door, but it was already covered in flames, and the blazing flames forced him to retreat.
With blazing flames in all directions, Jonah had no choice but to escape to the morgue in the basement.
Seeing the flames approaching, Jonah suddenly remembered the "secret passage" hidden in the crematorium.
In order to facilitate the cleaning of coal ashes, a passage will be reserved leading directly to the outside for easy removal.
He climbed into the crematorium. At this moment, the burning corpses appeared at the door of the morgue and rushed towards the crematorium like crazy.
They hit the corpse cremator. Whether it was a coincidence or some mysterious force, the buckle of the corpse cremator fell down and locked the lid.
Unable to open it from the inside, Jonah could only desperately crawl deeper, hoping to leave through the "secret passage". Unfortunately, under the control of strong resentment, the fire corpses crawled into the feeding port under the crematorium.
The coals below were ignited and turned into a raging fire in a moment, burning Jonah alive inside.
As Jonah dies painfully, the fire in the house mysteriously extinguishes, leaving only the blackened bones.
