The Beautiful CEO's Super Soldier King-Chapter 915 [Soul Burial]
The Phoenix hesitated for a moment, but after receiving Ye Chenfeng’s promise, the Phoenix still walked over to Aquino, took out a military knife, cut open a finger, and let the blood drip into the altar.
"Hehehe..."
The next moment, the Phoenix was truly shocked because a chilling laughter emanated from the altar, sounding distinctly inhuman. The contents inside seemed to become particularly excited after receiving the Phoenix’s blood...
"Your turn!"
Aquino looked at Ye Chenfeng, signaling for Ye Chenfeng to also drip blood into the altar.
Ye Chenfeng pursed his lips, walked forward, took the knife from the Phoenix’s hand, cut open a finger, and similarly dripped blood into the altar.
"Uh-huh..."
When Ye Chenfeng’s blood dripped into the altar, the situation suddenly changed. A fierce gust of wind arose, and a piercing scream so intense that it could cause one to faint emanated from the altar.
"Bang, bang..."
Additionally, the altar began to shake violently, as if enduring extreme agony, trying to break free from Aquino’s control.
Always as calm as Mount Tai, Aquino finally turned pale, crying out in disbelief, "This... this is impossible..."
"&...%￥..."
At the same time, Aquino chanted incantations aloud, as if magical power was soothing the altar, causing red light to burst forth from within, reflecting Aquino’s face which resembled an evil ghost.
Aquino seemed to be in significant pain, yet he gritted his teeth and persevered, while rumbling noises continued to emerge from below. It was evident that he was tapping into the strange power of this place.
Eventually, the altar began to quiet down and ceased its wild movements.
Aquino gave Ye Chenfeng a deep look, seemingly surprised by the outcome.
Ye Chenfeng noticed the change in Aquino’s expression and a thoughtful flash passed through his eyes, silently pondering something.
"It is done, your sorcery has been lifted!" Aquino said.
Ye Chenfeng also cast an inquisitive glance toward the Phoenix, who carefully sensed for a moment, as if a heavy iron that had been tied to her leg was suddenly released, bringing an indescribable sense of lightness and comfort.
"I think it’s fine now!" Phoenix said.
"That’s good then!"
Ye Chenfeng nodded, though he hadn’t exhibited any unusual signs yet.
"Now it’s time for my matters!" Aquino appeared somewhat excited.
"Phoenix Asura, you stand guard for me, and if something goes wrong, rush out no matter what!" Ye Chenfeng conveyed his intention through lip language.
"Let’s start, what should I do now?" Ye Chenfeng asked.
Aquino pointed to the blood-red coffin in the center and said, "You needn’t do anything, just bathe and then lie inside the coffin."
"..."
Upon Aquino’s words, Ye Chenfeng and his companions were momentarily stunned.
"Rest assured, it’ll be a bit painful but poses no life-threatening danger," Aquino said.
Though feeling anxious, Ye Chenfeng was determined to find Ye Qingge and bit his lip, agreeing to proceed.
The initial step was a ceremonial bathing and incense burning ritual, cumbersome in detail, involving the incantations of the Soul Hiding family’s sorcery and maidens specifically bathing Ye Chenfeng.
After the bath, Ye Chenfeng, dressed in unusual garments, was brought forth, and Aquino opened the coffin.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, a terrifying atmosphere descended like a bloodthirsty maw attempting to swallow everyone whole.
"Please!"
Aquino invited.
Ye Chenfeng also noticed six monk-robed figures wearing skull rosaries around the blood-red coffin, took a deep look at Phoenix and Asura, before proceeding along the stone steps into the blood-red coffin.
Inside was utter darkness, nothing visible, akin to the deep voids of the universe.
Ye Chenfeng cautiously entered the blood-red coffin, surprised that it wasn’t as large as it appeared from the outside, almost as if the inside was partitioned into upper and lower layers.
Yet Ye Chenfeng sensed something within the coffin, an eerie chill persistently pervading his body.
"Just lie down inside!" Ye Chenfeng heard Aquino’s voice in his ear. 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎
Then, Ye Chenfeng lay inside, quietly closed his eyes, and silently resolved that if anything seemed off, he would immediately bolt out.
Hmm?
Something beneath seemed to be cushioning him like a stone.
Ye Chenfeng took it out and was relieved upon realizing it was the Holy Grail, so he grasped it.
"Bang!"
A loud noise ensued as Aquino closed the lid of the blood-red coffin, casting Ye Chenfeng into complete darkness.
Aquino softly recited incantations, as if conducting a ritual or perhaps praying.
"Hmm?"
In the next instant, an extraordinary scene unfolded in the eyes of Asura and Phoenix.
As Aquino chanted incantations, the ground surrounding the blood-red coffin began to sink with sand and stone, revealing six channels.
"&%￥#...*"
Then, the monks sitting beside the six channels also began chanting, their voices rising louder and louder.
Were Ye Chenfeng and Asura to be atop the mountain right now, they’d surely be shocked to see a massive pool on the flat summit, its complex structure filled with gear-like arrangements, spinning rapidly and producing loud noises.
Around the Blood Pool were heaps of deceased children, precisely those discovered by Ye Chenfeng and Asura.
"Bang, bang, bang..."
Numerous members of the Soul Hiding family were casually tossing one child after another into the pool.
"Shhrrt shhrrt..."
The gear-like structures within spun rapidly, crushing upon contact with flesh...
Soon, blood filled the Blood Pool entirely.
In the secret chamber, Aquino leapt around like a shaman, murmuring unintelligibly.
However, within the secret chamber, the magic artifacts, talismans, altar, and other items reacted and emitted sounds.
"Ah?"
Phoenix suddenly covered her mouth, having witnessed blood flowing through the six channels.
The channel ends were connected directly to the blood-red coffin, as blood streams converged onto the blood-red coffin.
Thereby creating an anomalous physical phenomenon, as the blood made contact with the blood-red coffin, it began to flow upward along the lines of the coffin’s texture.
"Soul Burial, Blood Conduction!"
Aquino suddenly halted, shouting aloud, and transformed completely.
The channel blood flow surged more fiercely, intending to completely engulf the blood-red coffin’s exterior.
"..."
Phoenix and Asura heard the sounds of numerous struggling souls, exceedingly tragic.
Their eyes met in silent acknowledgment; clearly, this was human blood. The sheer volume suggested countless killings to obtain such blood.
With Aquino’s unusual techniques, ultimately the blood from the channels did cover the blood-red coffin in a layer, thick and intensely glaring, a thoroughly horrendous scene.
"Soul Hiding!"
Aquino shouted again.
