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

Chapter 226 Death is about to flip the table.

On the third day, dark clouds had gathered, and an intense threat of death enveloped every remaining survivor. Although they were not exorcists, they could sense that an invisible eye was watching them.

The plastic dolls Li Xuan created were imbued with magical power and their birth dates and times. Aside from their appearance, they were more lifelike than the survivors themselves, possessing a surging life force and even a near-perfect "soul." At the moment the black clouds gathered, these little plastic figures surged and exploded, all turning to dust…

Plastic dolls are very realistic, but they are not complete lives. They cannot withstand the power of death and will prematurely become unusable and die without any unexpected event.

It will take another six hours to complete the Fengdu Temple.

Li Xuan pondered a solution and finally decided to graft the birth dates and times of all the remaining survivors onto his body, using the identity of the Fengdu judge to fight against the Grim Reaper.

Higa Kotoko was shocked and rejected the proposal.

She said solemnly, "Mr. Li Xuan, the 'Grim Reaper' incident originally had nothing to do with you. I invited you here, and you could have provided some assistance. There was absolutely no need to go to such lengths."

This is a foreign country in another world, and Li Xuan himself doesn't have much empathy for foreigners.

However, as a judge of Fengdu, he avoided fighting against the great evil spirits that were harming living beings. This was a great sin in itself. Even if it was due to the myriad realms, Fengdu might not be able to blame him, a junior judge.

But this behavior will eventually become a higher-level inner demon.

The judges of Fengdu uphold the law and walk the world, ensuring that evil is punished without hesitation. If they encounter a great evil spirit that they cannot defeat, they must report it to Fengdu, where generals will come to exorcise it.

Besides...

The method of carving the eight characters on the body is an extreme measure used only as a last resort.

In front of the Fengdu Temple under construction on the top floor of the Queen's Building, Li Xuan sat cross-legged on a round red and black futon on the ground, with incense, candles, cinnabar, talismans and other props in front of him.

He held the newly written survivor's eight-character paper in both hands. Higa Kotoko stood behind him, holding a pen knife in her right hand. Looking at his strong and powerful shoulders and back, she felt somewhat at a loss.

"You may begin, Kotoko Higa."

"Okay, just bear with it."

Li Xuan was chanting incantations, while Higa Kotoko stood behind him, looking at the eight characters on the paper, and carved them one by one onto his back. This was not a tattoo, but a sharp, thin knife carving, so blood quickly flowed out.

Before Higa Kotoko could use her spiritual power to heal her wounds, she noticed that the written wounds were scabbing over at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the scabs would fall off with the slightest touch, leaving behind white writing.

The names of the more than one hundred survivors were all engraved on it.

In an instant, Li Xuan felt his body become heavy, as if a stone weighing several hundred pounds was pressing down on him, and he even had difficulty standing up...

Higa Kotoko covered the wound with a whole piece of yellow paper, then sprayed water onto it to soak it, making it stick tightly to Li Xuan's back wound.

She said, word by word, "Mr. Li Xuan, you have no relation to these people, yet you bear their misfortune. I am deeply moved. For the last eight hours, I will take care of your safety."

Li Xuan sat cross-legged, his hands forming the Fengdu Emperor's hand seal, having already entered a profound state.

This is the Fengdu Defense Method, which uses all its power for defense, can withstand high-intensity attacks, and can also conceal one's aura to a certain extent... In the Fengdu Temple behind them, the craftsmen are racing against time to complete the final part.

Just then, a worker put down his nail gun, started hammering at the wooden board, and turned to get other tools. His body got tangled in electrical wires, and the nail gun swerved, its muzzle pointing directly at Li Xuan's head...

boom!
Nail gun triggered!
The nail was ejected during the air pressure burst, turning into a streak of light that shot straight towards Li Xuan's head!

boom……

A hole appeared in the wall...

Li Xuan tilted his head to avoid the nails, pushing his instincts to the limit. Unless the rooftop collapsed, nothing could harm him now. Just as Higa Kotoko was about to speak to ensure Li Xuan's safety, he was nearly blown apart in the head. She turned to the worker, her smile vanishing, and said in a low voice, "Please don't be so careless! People will die!"

Death kills through accidents; there are just too many things that can kill at a construction site.

She summoned Standin to build a wall filled with non-Newtonian fluids between Li Xuan and Fengdu Temple, using this to isolate the danger...

Time passed by minute by minute.

The danger did not reappear.

But Higa Kotoko kept her eyes glued to the clock on the wall, not daring to relax for a moment. Based on past incidents, death usually occurred in the instant the survivor let their guard down...

With only three hours left, Fengdu Temple underwent final touches. Higa Kotoko suddenly felt a dampness on her forehead. She reached up and touched it; it was sweat. The air conditioning on the rooftop had been set to a comfortable temperature—neither too hot nor too cold—so how could she be sweating…

She felt something was wrong.

He got up and walked towards the French windows, his pupils slightly contracting as he saw a black sea spreading across the distant sky.

Standin, his face grave, came up from downstairs and quickly handed a pair of binoculars to Bigachin, saying, "This is probably the biggest disaster the Queen's Building has ever faced."

Looking through her telescope, Higa Kotoko saw that the sky wasn't covered in dark clouds at all, but rather a vast, overwhelming flock of crows, their numbers impossible to estimate...

She glanced at Li Xuan.

"Please wait a moment while I go up and drive away the crows."

In order to protect these birth charts, Li Xuan completely sealed himself off, like a stubborn stone statue, unable to speak or move, until the Fengdu Temple was completed.

He could hear Higa Kotoko speaking.

They also knew that Death was no longer playing games, so they stopped killing people by accident and started a direct assault.

Kotoko Higa...

Hang in there.

There are only two more hours left.

……

Queen's Building was in complete chaos. All unrelated personnel were cleared out of the building, while exorcists and SWAT officers began to rush to their gun positions on various floors to stand by. The top floor and rooftop had the largest number of people gathered, and three machine guns were even brought in from somewhere...

New York is a bustling city.

Since the start of peace, there have been minor shooting incidents, but this is the first time machine guns have been used.

This time, Kotoko Higa was not blindfolded. She sat in the center of the rooftop with three Shinto exorcists from New York, ready to strike.

Residents near the Queens Building in New York also saw the dark clouds coming from afar. Some curious individuals, equipped with binoculars, discovered it was a terrifying swarm of crows and immediately began shouting and screaming. Some, seemingly eager to stir up trouble, hysterically yelled words like "doomsday" and "biological crisis"...

Many people are ignorant and follow the crowd. They run around like headless flies, and some scoundrels even take advantage of the chaos, breaking into shopping malls to steal valuable goods for free.

Standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the surveillance footage showing the surrounding area below, Standin clenched his fists and cursed, "These bastards, is robbery etched into their genes?"
