Big Luo and Ning Wan'ge waited patiently on the spot, the both of their minds drifting away into deep thought.
When their inner demons were awaken previously, the spiritual altar in their minds were overwhelmed with distractions. Their minds derived countless ideas that still plagued them incessantly every now and then, after the experience they had about the Hades Empress.
However, the duo regained their peace of mind. They were able to control their thoughts completely and gradually make sense out of everything that has happened.
After what seemed like an eon, the void suddenly vibrated gently. Big Luo and Ning Wan'ge looked towards that direction, only to see the dimension rupture. Then, a giant figure emerged from within it.
That figure seemed a hundred thousand feet tall and adjoining both the sky and land. Even in the expanse of the directionless and borderless void, one could feel its sheer size. That was w.a.n.g Lin's Great Satanic Avatar.
One could observe two clear currents flowing in and out of the nostrils of the Great Satanic Avatar as he breathed.
There was a Nine-colored Brilliant Light circulating in the clear current, connected to the body of Big Luo. Obviously, w.a.n.g Lin followed the trail of this clear current to determine the location of Big Luo in the Void Battleground.
After the Great Satanic Avatar emerged from the void, it walked towards Big Luo and Ning Wan'ge. As he stepped forward, his body gradually shrank, until it was almost the same height as Big Luo.
Big Luo raised his arched hands to his face level to pay respect and said, “senior w.a.n.g.”
Although he technically was partly the disciple of Lin Feng and there was no formal apprentices.h.i.+p ceremony, but he never went overboard with his behavior. w.a.n.g Lin and the rest knew that he was no ordinary person and always treated him as one of their own. As time pa.s.sed, Big Luo started addressing them as seniors and juniors of the same clan.
When Ning Wan'ge saw w.a.n.g Lin, she also nodded her head and said, “fellow w.a.n.g, thank you for making a trip down to the Void Battleground.”
w.a.n.g Lin looked at the duo and slowly said, “no worries, as I have much to gain from this too. I should be the one thanking you for giving me this opportunity.”
Standing in the void, the pupils of w.a.n.g Lin's Great Satanic Avatar suddenly emitted a bright light.
This light was especially wicked, to the extent that upon seeing it, one would feel a sense of distortion and miscoordination from deep within, causing much discomfort to the person.
w.a.n.g Lin's Great Satanic Avatar's advantage lies in the great strength of the corporeal martial art, but that does not mean he knew no spells. Right then, he stretched out his hand and wrote one Fulu Divine Imprint after another in the void.
Big Luo and Ning Wan'ge said nothing more. Immediately, they each raised a finger. Demonic energy and spell energy surged in the void and a vast mist formed once again in this dimension.
The mist instantaneously turned black and blanketed the trio.
w.a.n.g Lin took a moment to deliberate. A crimson light blinked in the eyes of the Great Satanic Avatar, then he said, “besides traces of demonic spells, it indeed harbors remnants of satanic spells of the human clan. It is indeed the original teachings of the Ancient Satanic Sect.”
His Great Satanic Avatar was forged with multiple Heaven-Carrying Ant torsos and Avīci Satanic Appearances from powerful members of the Ancient Satanic Sect.
On the forehead of the Great Satanic Avatar, there was a Tai Chi pattern with a fusion and endless circulation of Yin and Yang. Right then, the Tai Chi pattern vanished. On his forehead, a vertical third eye started to materialize.
The third eye slowly opened and a sanguine light weltered within. The Great Satanic Avatar seemed evermore ferocious and tyrannous. It emanc.i.p.ated an increasingly vicious and evil aura. Despite its dignified appearance, it gave off a feeling of violent distortion. It could almost annihilate all that was good in the world, like a worldwide catastrophic disaster.
“Let's go,” said the Great Satanic Avatar. In the black mist, a scarlet light s.h.i.+mmered in all three of his eyes together, but it was not as tranquil as it seemed. The vertical eye on his forehead was clearly continuously absorbing the black mist.
Under the cultivation of the satanic mist, the Great Satanic Avatar's aura grew ever stronger and sinister.
But w.a.n.g Lin was obviously capable of controlling his mind. Ning Wan'ge and Big Luo also pacified their minds respectively. Then the light ray from Ning Wan'ge's pupils reappeared, morphing into strands of divine patterns and paved a path, pointing the direction forward for the trio.
Following the guidance of the light ray, the trio progressed steadily. Soon, that pitch black satanic gate appeared before them again.
Seeing this satanic gate, w.a.n.g Lin's eyes immediately grew brighter. He stretched his hands and pressed them against the gate.
The gate was visibly shaken, as the dim glow that s.h.i.+mmered on the gate became even darker.
Outside the Void Battleground, on Yingzhou Celestial Mountain in Ying Sea, w.a.n.g Lin's original body also vibrated, causing him to open his eyes.
Beside him, Lin Feng's Avatar of Ares sat down, with legs crossed and eyes shut. He was still channeling energy to refine Ying Sea, but Ling Fen could sense a change in w.a.n.g Lin without opening his eyes. He asked softly, “how did it go?”
w.a.n.g Lin's eyes s.h.i.+mmered with a strange color, as he said deeply, “as junior Big Luo described, the foundation of that place, besides demonic spells, was influenced by the ways and practices of the Ancient Satanic Sect of the human clan.”
Lin Feng asked, ” is it the Ancient Satanic Heart Curse?”
w.a.n.g Lin shook his head and said, “that cannot be determined yet. Not before we open and enter the gate.”
Lin Feng smiled and said, “in that case, go for it.”
In the Void Battleground, spell energy started to surge incessantly from w.a.n.g Lin's Great Satanic Avatar, flowing into the pitch black satanic gate before him. At that moment, all of the atmospheric satanic aura, like the black mist, began to churn silently, like waves in the sea and gushed towards the Great Satanic Avatar, as well as the pitch black satanic gate.
Just then, the savage reliefs that protruded from the satanic gate started to withdraw into the gate, strangely. That made the surface of the giant gate look smooth.
Although the gate became smooth, and the human figures with distorted postures as well as ferocious expressions disappeared, somehow the entire gate seemed even more twisted and chaotic.
Such a contradictory sensory presentation made the observer almost lose all self control, going into total mania.
At the same time, w.a.n.g Lin's Great Satanic Avatar started to change. His facial features gradually disappeared. On his face, the nose and mouth both vanished. Even his two normal eyes were gone without a trace. Only the vertical eyes remained on the forehead of the now barren face.
w.a.n.g Lin's Great Satanic Avatar had no facial features or expressions left, so as to speak of. But the ferocious and evil aura also reached a never before peak, like it was the most devious ent.i.ty in the whole world.
On the chaotic visage that had nothing left, remained the lone vertical eye. The blinding light from the vertical eye was like the Big Bang. It was the birth of the source of all evil, in the primitive chaos.
The strength and influence exuded from the Great Satanic Avatar made people tremble in fear. It felt like when the universe was created, the first thing that came to be was neither the s.p.a.ce where life begin nor life itself, but absolute evil. It was both the beginning and the end, without regard to the past or future.
Ony after the birth of this satanic thinking were there the splitting of heaven and earth, as well as the gift of life. That means every being could practice the ways of satanism, become an expert in satanism, or even become a satan. As such, satan is everywhere, following the footsteps of all living beings, everlasting like the heaven and the earth.
w.a.n.g Lin let out a long sigh, with no regard to good or evil, happiness or anger. Following his sigh, the dim glow at the peripheral of the satanic gate abruptly withdrew and confluenced into the satanic gate itself.
A moment later, the satanic gate opened.
The gate revealed a crevice. w.a.n.g Lin pushed the gate, but it was too heavy. Knowing how the energy system worked, Big Luo also pressed his palm against the satanic gate. Under the propeling of his demonic power, the gate indeed slowly opened.
Seeing this, Ning Wan'ge nodded and thought, “woah, he is using demonic energy to power a human clan satanic spell.”
The door finally opened completely. Behind the gate, there was a whole new world.
In that world, there were mountains and seas, and an abundance of nature. It was truly fairytale world.
But peculiarly, this world was weaved with only colors of black and red. Everything in it was only composed of black and red. No other color could be seen.
The trio stepped into the gate as it closed behind them. w.a.n.g Lin turned his head slightly but gave it no further thought. On the face of the Great Satanic Avatar, there were still no facial features except the vertical eye on the forehead.
w.a.n.g Lin, Big Luo, and Ning Wan'ge walked farther and farther into the depths of the Black and Red World.
Ning Wan'ge's pace slowed gradually. She inspected the surroundings, with looks of surprise and confusion in her eyes, The emotionless visage of w.a.n.g Lin turned around, as the vertical third eye on his forehead stared at Ning Wan'ge, he asked, “have you discovered something new?”
“It feels as though I have been here. Every twist and turn here feels so familiar to me,” Ning Wan'g'e said as she took a deep breathe. She calmed her mind and said slowly, “I must have seen this scene before.”
w.a.n.g Lin nodded his head and said, “that means we are at the right place.”
Ning Wan'ge closed her eyes and reopened them after a short while. She took a step forward and said, “this way.” w.a.n.g Lin and Big Luo did not object and both followed her.
In this world, there was the same palace again. After Ning Wan'ge entered the palace, her pace quickened, as though she was becoming increasingly familiar with this place.
The group traveled to the rear hall, only to find a huge sacrificial altar before them. Upon seeing this sacrificial altar, it was as though a lighting struck Ning Wan'ge, as she froze instantaneously.
w.a.n.g Lin and Big Luo looked other to discover that the sacrificial altar was a.s.sembled with the bones of demons from various clans.
A brief inspection revealed that it contained the bones of Dragons, True Hous, Ape Demons, Kun Pengs, as well as bones of other demons.
These bones were twisted into very unnatural postures, in the same fas.h.i.+on as the reliefs that initially appeared on the satanic gate, giving off a feeling of miscoordination.
The bones stacked to form the sacrificial altar that was almost a hundred thousand feet tall. It did not look that big in the grand palace, after the dimensional switch. Though it came short of the roof of the grand palace, it was good enough to bring shock to people.
The palace and sacrificial altar were both black and red, exhibiting a contrast between light and dark, making them look especially evil.
Ning Wan'ge stared at the sacrificial altar in a daze as she was long lost for words.
However, w.a.n.g Lin's attention was captured by another spell formation in the proximity of the sacrificial altar.
There was broken pieces of a certain item scattered in the center of the spell formation and these fragments captivated the attention of w.a.n.g Lin.
Ning Wan'ge snapped out of it and turned around to look at w.a.n.g Lin and Big Luo. The usually nonchalant and indifferent girl was suddenly very serious, even with a tinge of fervor.
“I have to make it to the top of the sacrificial altar. My sixth sense tells me that I would learn of all that has happened to me there,” Ning Wan'ge said. Subsequently, she levitated her body and landed at the top of the sacrificial altar. Then she crossed her legs and sat down.
As soon as Ning Wan'ge sat down on the sacrificial altar, the whole sacrificial altar suddenly trembled violently. Beams of demonic energy surged towards the sky. Instantly, a white, cloudy smoke boiled over and enveloped the sacrificial altar.
In a world of only black and red, there was at last a different color.
