Chapter 245: Memory Fragment
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
This village was located behind the mountain range that towered into the clouds that covered the sky.
The sun would shine only when the sun was about to set. The name of the village comes from the afterglow of the setting sun.
The Twilight Village.
This was just a mortal village. No one would care about it…
Lu Changsheng led Blackie into the village.
At this moment, it was sunset.
The afterglow of the setting sun shone on this village.
However, the village was extremely quiet.
The sound of the wind blowing the leaves rustled which was the only sound in the village. It was so quiet that it was scary.
Lu Changsheng looked around and there was no sign of anyone.
One could even sense a demonic intent vaguely!
It slowly floated in the air.
“No one?”
Lu Changsheng frowned.
The aura swept across the village.
He found something.
The house at the front was different from other huts made of wood.
It was made of stone and was two stories high and it was an interval duplex…
It seemed that the person who used to live here was the village chief of Twilight Village.
Inside the stone house, Lu Changsheng could sense an aura that was much stronger than that of mortals.
What was more interesting was that the black stone’s aura finally disappeared from this stone house.
Now, after Blackie entered Twilight Village.
The dark demonic aura around his body seemed to be connected to the black aura in the air at this moment.
They fused with each other and guided each other.
Lu Changsheng and Blackie quickly approached the stone house.
The closer he got, the more the dark demonic aura on Blackie’s body trembled!
At the same time, it was also increasing Blackie’s pain!
On his chest was the willow leaf that the willow tree had given him.
It was emitting a gentle green light which suppressed the demonic nature in Blackie’s body.
It would not cause him to fall into madness.
After walking into the stone house, the originally tightly locked wooden door suddenly exploded at this moment!
A black figure stretched out his hands.
The nails on his hands were like sharp claws that pierced out from his fingers!
They formed two pairs of sharp black claws and clawed at Lu Changsheng!
Lu Changsheng’s expression was calm, as if he had already sensed it.
He stood on the spot and reached out with one hand.
It blocked the head of the black figure.
This person’s entire body was covered in a black aura. It was impossible to tell if he was a human or a ghost.
However, with Lu Changsheng’s strength, he could tell that his mind was occupied by the Devil Intent.
Just like Blackie.
He had fallen into a state of madness and had become a killing machine that only knew how to kill!
It could be caused by the black stone…
Lu Changsheng’s hands were full of vitality.
It enveloped the black figure and continuously purified it.
Under the purification of the endless will, the black fog began to emit sizzling sounds.
It was like the sound of boiling oil splashing.
Roars of pain rang out from within the black fog.
The bloody claws kept reaching for Lu Changsheng.
However, it was unable to break through the encirclement of the endless will.
Several breaths of time passed.
The black fog that enveloped the figure had already been completely purified.
What appeared was an old man.
The old man’s eyes sank.
There were only a few sparse strands of white hair on his head.
His body was hunched.
The two pairs of sharp claws also began to slowly retract from his fingers.
Then, he looked at Lu Changsheng with confusion in his eyes.
What followed were teardrops the size of beans.
One by one, drops fell from the old man’s sunken eyes.
“It’s gone… It’s all gone…”
The old man fainted, as if he could not hold on any longer.
That made sense. How could a mortal stay awake after going crazy?
It was already good enough that he did not die of exhaustion immediately.
Lu Changsheng quickly helped the old man up.
He took out a pill, crushed it into powder, and sprinkled it on the old man’s body.
In an instant, beams of white light appeared on the old man’s chest.
He was repairing and improving the old man’s body.
At the same time, Lu Changsheng sent an endless stream of energy into the old man’s forehead.
Repairing that extremely damaged sea of consciousness…
After doing all of this,
Lu Changsheng led Blackie to the stone house.
In the middle of the stone house.
The black stone was placed on the Revered Elders Platform.
There were also tributes all around.
However, those tributes were like white bones, blood-red flesh that had even begun to rot and turn black…
And a heart that had stopped beating.
The head with its eyes wide open…
It was like some kind of ritual held by the demons.
Extremely bloody and cruel…
The black stone was surrounded by these so-called tributes.
At the same time, it emitted wisps of demonic aura.
Perhaps the reason why the old man fell into madness was because he was infected by this demonic nature…
He sighed, took the black stone and placed it in front of Blackie.
It seemed to be related.
In an instant, the black stone turned into a black stream of light and burrowed into Blackie’s glabella!
At this moment, black light shone brightly around Blackie!
The seal loosened, and blank memories emerged.
At this moment, it was filled by the black stone.
Streams of dusty memories were opened like a box.
It surged out!
“Brother, if you’re not strong enough, don’t look for me.”
“Hehe, Lord Demon God, we’ve been planning this for millions of years. Now, we’ve finally succeeded.”
“In the future, I’ll control the Demon Realm for you…”
Brother?
Lord Demon God?
The Demon Realm?
There’s a plan?
Blackie looked at the memory fragments that kept flashing in his sea of consciousness.
He knew that this memory was still incomplete.
Just by relying on a few broken images, he did not know what had happened before.
And at the end of the memory was a canyon filled with a gray aura.
There were countless corpses in the valley.
In the depths, there were countless demons!
At the entrance of the canyon, Blackie could see a stone tablet.
Two words could be vaguely seen on the stone tablet.
Demonic Abyss…
‘This?*
Could it be the location of the next memory fragment?
Or were those people in the Demonic Abyss?
Blackie opened his eyes
and looked at the roof.
“No matter what, I need to go to the Demonic Abyss.”
Demonic Abyss?
Lu Changsheng was slightly stunned hearing Blackie’s words.
What kind of place was this?
Ever since Blackie came to the Wilderness Region, he knew that the Demonic Abyss was probably not the location of this world.
Lu Changsheng patted Blackie’s shoulder and said, “Since you’ve woken up, you should deal with the matter here. After all, you’re the cause of this matter.”
Blackie nodded.
The sun set and he rose as usual the next day.
However, because Twilight Village was behind the mountain range, even if the sun rose, it would not be able to receive the direct sunlight at this moment.
It was still a little dark.
At this moment, the old man slowly woke up.
After waking up, he looked around with a trace of hope in his eyes.
He hoped that what had happened before was just a dream.
However, when he saw the empty village, all he saw was the last white-robed man in his memory.
Despair appeared in his eyes again.
“It’s gone… It’s all gone…”
“It’s all because of that black stone…”
