Horror/Fear Anime: Starting with a Tomie Hairstyle

"Th-what is that...?"

"It's a tombstone! The tombstone has come to life!"

"My grandma stood up!"

"Run!!!"

The tombstone figure stands up, with two empty holes around its eyes; looking at it for too long can give you a creepy feeling.

"I can't walk anymore, someone help me!"

Some people felt their blood freeze, wanting to run but their legs wouldn't obey them, and they remained rooted to the spot.

A hand twice the size of a normal person's struck, accompanied by a whooshing sound. The person's neck was twisted, their head forming a 91-degree angle with their body, and blood gushed out...

The townspeople panicked and ran in another direction, only to be blocked by a new wave of tombstone people.

"How could our loved ones... become like this..." the woman cried out, her face contorted in despair.

Just now, her husband's stomach was emptied by the tombstone thief. She fled in a panic, unable to face it. She remembered that this tombstone belonged to her mother, who had recently passed away.

"What family? That's a monster! A monster!"

The man who was also on the run retorted to the woman with a sob in his voice, as if he was refuting his true thoughts, or as if he was trying to convince himself to accept the facts.

The woman couldn't understand how her ordinary daily life could have suddenly turned out like this.

"Bang!" The woman who was running just a second ago fell to the ground and never got up again.

A stone thorn pierced straight through her chest.

The tombstone man lowered his hand, then raised it again, pulled out a new stone thorn, and swung his arm sharply at the person who had run far away.

"Pfft—"

New bursts of blood exploded in the air.

"thump--"

Jiuzhiche lunged and rolled on the ground, and more than a dozen stone thorns fell onto the ground he had rolled over, embedding themselves deeply.

Jiuzhi Che jumped up and ran without looking back.

Those tombstone men weren't very fast, but they were incredibly strong, and the worst part was that they could attack from a distance.

That's a foul!

If he didn't have cheat codes, he would have started cursing.

"Activate the purification template to 20%!"

[Purification activation progress: 20%]

[Currently available spirituality: 14.91%]

"Purification": The current activation progress is 20%. The consumption of mental energy for purification is slightly reduced, and the range of application is slightly increased. The purification effect will increase with each increase in activation progress.

P.S.: It works better when used at close range against strange entities and ghosts.

Jiuzhiche immediately threw Purification behind him, which was actually a way of locking onto a monster and using his ability.

The tombstone figure, now locked in place, stiffened, letting out a sharp, painful scream as a small portion of the stone thorns on its body fell off.

The results are amazing!

Before the upgrade, when Jiuzhiche used Purification, the monster only lost a few stone thorns, but now it has improved a lot!

"That won't do. If we keep being chased, we'll never reach our destination."

However, behind Jiuzhiche were hundreds of tombstone people.

The mastermind behind this must know who is causing trouble, which is why the strange creature is relentlessly pursuing him.

But in other words, if the mastermind behind this has the ability to resurrect so many tombstone figures, why doesn't they take matters into their own hands?

Either he looks down on Jiu Zhiche and is just playing with him, or... he can't come out at all!

Shrine...

Jiuzhi Che focused his mind and concentrated entirely on running.

He was already close to his limit to be able to run for more than ten minutes to evade pursuit.

Suddenly, he saw the corner ahead. He remembered it; it was a winding alley, a good opportunity.

He decisively plunged into the alley, turning left and right, going around in circles!

Corners are useful; people slow down when they turn corners.

Soon, Jiuzhiche shook them off.

Even after darting out of the alley, Jiu Zhiche didn't relax; the place was full of tombstones.

Fortunately, he was intentionally running in the direction of his destination, and he was almost there—the library.

He suspects that the time when the idea of ​​the tombstone becoming a Buddha came out was related to the time when the mastermind was behind it. Could there be any records in the library?

In short, he'll try it out first. If he has no clues and isn't confident he can fight back, he'll choose to run away first.

As for the fate of these townspeople?

Jiuzhiche did not feel guilty.

Even without him, the tombstone man would have emerged sooner or later!

He didn't believe that the mastermind behind all this for so many years would let the people here go after achieving their goal!

Otherwise, how could there be such a thing as a tombstone person!

Calling the police won't work now; the eerie aura of countless tombstone figures has already blocked the signal magnetic field, and cell phones have no signal at all.

"don't want--"

A voice filled with obvious fear rang out, and Jiu Zhiche paused slightly, looking to his right.

The group of five was cornered by two tombstone men, and the one being choked by the tombstone men was Koizumi's mother.

At this moment, her face turned blue from lack of oxygen. The stone thorns on the tombstone man's hand cut her neck. Seeing that she was taking in less air than she was exhaling, the man who was originally trembling rushed out and crashed his head into the tombstone man's stomach. Ignoring the pain, he held the tombstone man tightly!

The tombstone figure was knocked and swayed slightly, still clutching Koizumi's mother!

"You guys run! I'll hold them off!"

To Jiuzhi Che's surprise, the man who hit the person was Yoshikawa Tsuyoshi.

Ha, was it because of guilt? Fear? Or was it the urge to make amends that led him to risk his life to save others?

Unfortunately, with another tombstone figure nearby, the others dared not move easily, all fearing its body covered in stone thorns.

"elder brother!!!"

Yoshikawa Kaori screamed and closed her eyes in fear.

Yoshikawa Tsuyoshi's hand was torn off by another tombstone man. Their strength was unreasonable; tearing off a hand was as easy as tearing off a chicken leg.

Jiuzhiche gave me the feeling of watching a blood-soaked cutscene; it was so easy to tear it apart, and the tear was so thorough.

Like tearing a rag doll.

Just as Yoshikawa Tsuyoshi's head was about to be twisted off, Kyushige Tetsu moved.

He quickly crouched down, took the military knife strapped to his leg, and in a swift movement, cast a purification spell before raising the knife—

The blade pierced precisely into the heart of the man tearing the tombstone!

Its stone thorns collapsed like a sandpile crumbling, and before it could even scream, its entire body disintegrated along with the stone thorns, turning into a shower of stone dust.

It works really well!

The weaknesses seen by the Demon Eye, combined with the purification that eliminated most of their strength, resulted in 1+1>2!

The souls in the tombstone are broken beyond recognition; he can see their decaying, numb state, beyond redemption.

Therefore, he was ruthless when he killed.

Then, Jiuzhiche used Purify and slash again to send the other Tombstone Man away.

Koizumi's mother collapsed to the ground.

"mom!"

Koizumi and his father rushed to help Koizumi's mother.

Yoshikawa Kaori sobbed uncontrollably, her body still weak from shock. Looking at her brother covered in blood, she wondered for a moment if his death would bring her relief.

"Take them with you."

Jiu Zhiche had a cold face, but strangely, he gave people a sense of security.

They helped the injured up and followed Jiu Zhiche.

Koizumi's father then helped Yoshikawa Kaori carry Yoshikawa Tsuyoshi on his back.

"Come in."

After Jiuzhi Che and the others all came in, they closed the library door.

"Disinfect them and stop the bleeding."

Jiuzhiche took out a hemostatic bandage and a small bottle of alcohol from his chest bag, then stopped paying attention and focused his consciousness on the system panel.

He has gained a lot of spirituality through the rituals, more than 400. He almost had a mental breakdown several times and passed away.

Fortunately, I used two spirit orbs and managed to hold on.

However, the focus now is on choosing a template!

A look of anticipation flashed in Jiu Zhiche's eyes.

[Contact with 2 infected demons to gain 1% initial spirituality]

[Deal with 2 infected demons to gain 1% Spirituality]

[Current template selection progress: 100.14%]

[Trigger selection template: "Eternal Youth", "Succubus", "Strong" - choose one]

Jiuzhi Che pondered for a moment, then chose one of them.
