It doesn't matter if your souls are scattered, as long as you die.

Vikram and the two snakes led Jiang Ting to the iron gate of the Min family manor for the third time, their faces grim.

No matter how they ran, they were still inside the Min family manor in the end.

They had opened this iron gate twice, and each time they ran out, they somehow ended up back in the Min family manor.

Vikram stated that mystical formations and such are the most annoying things in the world.

"Hiss..."

Vikram looked in the direction where Little Red was sticking her head out and saw Zhi Du and Emma running towards them.

Zhi Du Chong Vikram smiled and ran towards Jiang Ting, who was lying on the ground, her life hanging in the balance.

At this point, Jiang Ting had lost consciousness.

First, they checked his breathing, then his pulse, and then examined his eyes. The final conclusion was that poor blood circulation and exhaustion had led to his coma.

As Pastor James said, it won't kill anyone, which is the only fortunate thing.

Emma, ​​hands on her knees, watched Master Zhidu examine Jiang Ting. When he turned her over and didn't see the cross on her back, she asked, "The cross was removed?"

Vikram nodded. "It wasn't taken. It fell off by itself after it got far away from Pastor James. I don't know where it fell to."

But it didn't seem to help much; there was something unpleasant stuck to the area on her back where the cross had been.

Zhidu also saw the bad thing Vikram mentioned; it was evil energy.

Emma saw it too, and she suggested, "I heard you can draw a talisman called purification..."

Before she could finish speaking, Zhidu immediately understood what she meant and took out a stack of talismans from his cloth bag, from which he took out a purification talisman.

This talisman is the one I used a few days ago to purify the black energy from Yun Li's wounds.

When the talisman was applied to that spot, just like when I cleaned Yun Li's wound that day, it immediately made a sizzling sound.

Visible black mist emanated from Jiang Ting's back.

The three of them saw that it worked and smiled.

Vikram and Emma were happy, not because of Jiang Ting, but because they were afraid that they too would be tainted by the cross and have no hope of salvation.

Once a solution is found, there's not so much to worry about even if you get infected.

When one talisman wore off, Zhidu took out another one and pasted it on.

Only then did he have a chance to ask Vikram, "What are you doing here?"

Vikram pointed to the iron gate. "Go out, and in the blink of an eye you're back in."

Emma exploded on the spot, "Another array? Why is your Eastern metaphysics so annoying?"

Vikram nodded in agreement; it was indeed very annoying.

Zhidu didn't speak, but his fingers were rapidly calculating, and his ears were twitching.

After a dozen or so breaths, he stopped calculating, his ears stopped moving, and his face became solemn.

"This is not a formation."

"Not a formation? What is it then?" Emma scratched her head in frustration, her smooth blonde hair becoming frizzy from the scratching.

Zhi Du shook his head. "I don't know the specifics. I only know that we are completely cut off from the outside world right now, like..."

After thinking for a moment, he finally came up with an analogy: "It's like we're in a separate space, not in our original world."

This left Vikram and Emma speechless; he must be talking nonsense!

"Old monk, are you trying to scare us?"

"No, this old monk never frightens people."

"Ugh, where are we now?" Emma was exasperated. This was so annoying! She shouldn't have come to the Eastern Lands; this place was her nemesis.

Zhi Du looked around and guessed, "I think we might be in someone's domain."

"A domain?" Emma stopped her frenzy. "What is that?"

Zhi Du thought for a moment and was about to explain to her, but before he could speak, a voice that sounded like Pastor Zhan came from not far away.

"Master Zhidu is very knowledgeable; he even knows the word 'domain.' Impressive!"

The three people and two snakes turned their heads to look in the direction of the sound coming from the darkness, and vaguely saw a tall, blurry black figure walking towards them.

"Run!"

Master Zhidu took out a purification talisman and stuck it on Jiang Ting's back again, then ran away.

Emma quickly followed, feeling that following the old monk was the safest option.

Vikram paused for a second, then instructed Xiao Hei to take Jiang Ting and ran after them.

The tall, dark figure watched the fleeing figures but didn't rush to chase after them. Instead, he let out a low laugh.

Within his domain, no matter how they run, they cannot escape.

Even if the formation at the foot of the mountain is broken, they still cannot get out, and the people at the foot of the mountain cannot find them at all.

Why not tease them a bit?

The shadowy figure raised a hand and touched its face, then its shoulder.

Having a physical presence makes all the difference; Pastor Zhan's awareness is truly remarkable.

"Hey, old monk, you said we're no longer in our original world, so how can others still find us?"

Emma asked as she ran.

Zhi Du ran off without looking back, thinking, "If others can't find it, this little girl definitely can."

Upon hearing this, Emma patted her chest. Thank goodness, thank goodness, someone could still find them.

Vikram didn't know who the little girl they were talking about was, but he didn't ask.

As they ran, they encountered Han Xi and Black Eagle, who were also running. Black Eagle was carrying Zhao Xu on his back.

"Master Zhidu, what's going on now?"

Black Hawk carried Zhao Xu to Zhidu, then glanced at Vikram and Emma, ​​as well as Jiang Ting, who was being held in the mouth of the giant snake.

Master Zhidu briefly explained the current situation, which made Black Hawk's temples throb.

I had heard of demons before, but I had never seen one. I always thought that such things probably only existed in legends.

I never imagined that we would meet again.

"Why were you running so desperately just now?" Emma asked, slightly out of breath, holding an umbrella in one hand and leaning against a tree with the other.

"What else could it be for? Of course, it's to avoid that evil creature." Before Black Eagle could speak, Han Xi began furiously digging at the ground with his two front paws.

What bad luck! If she had known it would turn out like this, she shouldn't have come to Xiangcheng and entered Bijin Mountain.

"He actually chased after you guys too?" Emma looked back. Wasn't he chasing them? Could he be in two places at once...?

"You guessed wrong. I can't split myself into two, I can only..."

The sudden, mocking voice made the group's hair stand on end. They looked around but saw nothing.

"It only allows teleportation within my domain."

As soon as they finished speaking, a huge black shadow appeared not far from them, and a large black hand reached out towards them.

Little Black was the first to react, grabbing Vikram and running away.

Next was Emma, ​​whose wings instantly grew out and she flew away from the area covered by the black hand.

Black Hawk reacts quickly, but he doesn't have Little Black's speed or Emma's wings.

Before he could take more than a few steps carrying Zhao Xu, he was grabbed by a large black hand.
