Terrifying Heavens: I'll directly worship the Black Law of Fengdu!

Chapter 138 The Sword Emerges from Fengdu
Besides the elaborate altar at the top, the prison altar has ninety-nine steps from top to bottom. Each step is carved with long runes, some for purifying the prison altar, some for purifying sorcerers, some for expelling evil spirits, and some for inviting gods. Almost all the talismans of Fengdu are carved on it.

The Superintendent General, who was standing next to Li Xuan, told him about a strange thing that happened during the construction process.

He said, "The craftsmen can automatically memorize the complex patterns of these talisman carvings on the prison altar with just a glance. During the carving process, they simply wield the carving knife mechanically. After completion, they can't remember how to carve these talismans again."

Even when looking at these finished products or flipping through those design drawings, each craftsman saw a different pattern of incantation each time, as if it were a constantly changing graphic code…

Li Xuan's design was taken from an appendix to "Black Law". When I first touched it, I felt it was extraordinary, but I didn't know what made it extraordinary. It turns out it was the anti-counterfeiting features.

He said, "Chinese culture has a long history, and even I am still exploring it. It's normal for some things to seem miraculous."

The Superintendent General of Police had hoped to glean information about the method of creating this anti-counterfeiting measure, but this answer meant he wouldn't get any useful information in the short term. No matter, as long as Li Gan is still in Japan, there's plenty of time. Through prolonged interaction, feelings, money, or beautiful women, one of these will surely make him surrender and join the Japanese family.

Li Xuan took out his phone and checked the date, saying, "Since the temple and the prison altar are already completed, there's no better time than today. Let's start the ceremony at 11 p.m. tonight. I will first set up the prison altar to communicate with Fengdu and suppress the evil spirits of the Saeki family. Then I will invite the true spirit of the Great Emperor of the Eastern Peak to sit in the temple and purify the human world."

As the sun dipped below the western mountains.

The nights in Tokyo are darker than ever before.

The ghosts became restless. They rarely possessed intelligence, but the unease they sensed instinctively drove them to wander aimlessly...

Time is up.

There were no women present, only men selected by Li Xuan.

Wearing a judge's robe, Li Xuan walked step by step up the steps of the prison altar. Standing behind the altar, he swept his right hand across it, revealing writing brush, ink, paper, inkstone, incense, candles, and cinnabar—everything was there.

He lit the candle with a match, then lit three sticks of incense and inserted them into the stove. He first worshipped the gods of the north, then the gods of the other directions, cleansing the altar, his body, and the brush, ink, paper, and inkstone, strictly following each procedure. Afterward, he picked up a cinnabar brush and wrote down what happened in the world of "Ju-on" on yellow paper, as well as what he wanted to ask for.

With a gentle stroke of the index finger across the incense flame, the flame danced on the fingertip, then flicked onto the yellow paper. Instantly, a wisp of smoke rose from the flame, soaring ninety thousand miles into the sky.

A strange feeling suddenly welled up inside me, like a message I sent suddenly getting a "(read)" notification...

Li Xuan raised his peach wood sword and said loudly, "In the realm of Ju-on, I have been repeatedly harassed by evil spirits. These spirits are immortal and extremely troublesome. Therefore, I have specially requested the Underworld Altar to contact Fengdu and pray for their presence to guard the battle. I hope that in this time of crisis, if my strength is insufficient, I can obtain the power of the Underworld to help me break this calamity."

He is a person who loves to learn.

People from Fengdu like to talk like that, and he occasionally wants to say a few words to feel a sense of accomplishment.

The candlelight on the altar turned from orange-red to black, and the smoke from the three sticks of incense gathered and did not dissipate, forming three circles of different sizes around it, like a protective magic circle.

Li Xuan didn't dare to dawdle and slammed two sheets of paper on the table, which contained the personal information of Takeo Saeki and Kayako.

The Superintendent General of Police was afraid that Li Xuan would be dissatisfied, so he even investigated the information of the two men's relatives.

Li Xuan picked up two scarecrows, pasted photos of Gang Xiong and Kayako on them, wrote their birth dates on them, raised the peach wood sword while chanting incantations, and suddenly slammed the jar. Bang! Vermilion ink bounced out of the dish, soaking the two scarecrows.

The Saeki family.

Kayako suddenly fell out of the cupboard, her body contorting as she tumbled a few times on the floor before standing up, her venomous eyes filled with a hint of bewilderment. Meanwhile, Takeo, who was pacing between the first and second floors, trembled violently, his skin rapidly turning red. He seemed to have regained some of his memories; his facial expression twisted, his mouth opening and closing: "You wretched woman, even in death you try to harm me! I can kill you once, and I can kill you a second time."

After passing through the second floor, Gang Xiong arrived at the third floor for the first time since his death. Upon seeing Kayako standing there, his eyes turned red with rage. He pulled out a fruit knife and strode towards Kayako!

He grabbed Kayako's long hair with his left hand and roughly lifted her up, while his right hand frantically stabbed her neck and stomach with a fruit knife, black blood spurting everywhere and staining the room black...

Kayako slowly raised her hand, and with a soft thud, the fruit knife pierced through her palm. Unaware of the pain, she grabbed Takeo's hand holding the knife, her neck cracking, her head tilting to the side, and she suddenly sprayed a mouthful of black water onto Takeo's face!

This taste is like concentrated sulfuric acid.

Gang Xiong released the fruit knife and took a few steps back, frantically scratching his face with both hands until it bled profusely, the flesh was torn apart, and even the facial bone was exposed...

He wandered aimlessly, exited through the doorway, stepped onto the stairs, and tumbled down.

Kayako ignored Takeo and walked to the window of her room, looking westward towards Tokyo. She pressed her hands tightly against the windowsill and looked out onto the street.

Several thugs passing by on the street froze, their bodies transforming into several Kayakos. They glanced at the house, then twisted their bodies and walked westward. Although they walked very slowly, their figures flashed and disappeared quickly into the distance.

……

On the prison altar, Li Xuan saw numerous small red dots bursting from the candlelight. He picked up his binoculars and looked down the mountain, only to see many Kayakos arriving, seemingly endlessly multiplying...

Like Li Xuan, a group of police superintendents were also paying attention to their surroundings. The binoculars they were holding also spotted a large number of Kayakos, which terrified them.

The Superintendent General of Police couldn't contain his fear. Wasn't it agreed that there would only be one person? What was going on with this huge crowd?

He shouted at Li Xuan, "Sir, what should we do?"

Li Xuan pondered for a moment and said, "You all go into the Dongyue Emperor Temple and hide. Don't make any noise. No matter what you see, don't make a sound. Follow the hand seals I taught you beforehand and keep your minds focused!"

The police officers, as if granted a pardon, all rushed into the temple of the Eastern Peak Emperor, leaving only Li Xuan on the prison altar.

The Kayakos from the foot of the mountain have finally made it up!

They were dressed in identical, blood-stained white robes and emitted a cacophony of bubbling sounds, their intention being to overwhelm Li Xuan with a swarm of ghosts...

Li Xuan made a hand seal with his left hand, grabbed a handful of talismans and scattered them, loudly chanting the Fire Bell Divine Incantation: "South Pole Fire Bell, Golden Fire Heavenly Soldiers. Quickly leave the Xun Palace, descend to the Li Gate. Swiftly descend the true spirit, with the heart as the general, with Qi as the god. I now mix them, forming a shape. Take it in to form the elixir, exhale it to form the god. Heaven and earth unite in virtue, the sun and moon hide their brilliance. Fire, descend hastily, unite with me in truth. Hasten, hasten, as the law commands!"

The talismans fluttered down from the prison altar like butterflies, igniting into raging flames when they touched the kayaks. Instantly, flames soared into the sky around the prison altar!

The Kayakos, their bodies stained with flames, burned black and torn apart, yet they pressed onward.

One of them had just stepped onto the first step of the prison altar when his body suddenly exploded into dust.

The prison is a place of solemn authority, not to be trifled with!
