The leader of the Witch Sect sneered, “He has fallen under the influence of our Witch Sect’s Magic Curse. In a few minutes, not only will he turn into a pool of blood, but his soul will also be devoured by the Magic Curse.”
“We don’t have much time left. Let’s continue resurrecting our ancestor.”
The members of the Five Poison Sect and Ghost Sect nodded simultaneously and glanced at Leo, who was in agony, before walking towards the square stone platform.
They were well aware of the power of the Witch Sect’s insects, as they had experienced it firsthand. Therefore, they were not worried about any unexpected occurrences.
In their eyes, Leo was already a dead man.
The leader of the Ghost Sect summoned the skull once again, which hovered above the repulsive insect that had taken the shape of a human head.
At this moment, the forty-nine individuals holding the red tokens had already drained their blood. Although they remained motionless in their original positions, their bodies had completely petrified, transforming into forty-nine stone statues.
Looking at the headless Jairo on the square stone platform, his flesh had fully regenerated.
His robust arms were muscular and filled with explosive power.
There were no longer any mouth, nose, or eyes on Jairo’s belly and chest. All that was missing now was a head to make him whole.
Since the leader of the Ghost Sect had been injured earlier, this time it was the other three members of the Ghost Sect who simultaneously recited the incantation.
However, the abilities of the three individuals from the Ghost Sect were clearly weaker than that of their leader. Despite their efforts to activate the incantation, the descent of the skull was incredibly slow.
Upon witnessing this situation, the leader of the Witch Sect appeared somewhat anxious as he pulled out a black banner adorned with peculiar patterns from his bosom.
Simultaneously, the other three members of the Witch Sect also retrieved identical black banners from their bosoms.
They tossed their black banners into the air, and the banners slowly revolved around the skull while the four members of the Witch Sect began to form seals and chant incantations.
Under the impetus of the incantations, the black banners on all four sides accelerated their rotation until they merged into a black circle.
With a loud shout, the leader of the Witch Sect emitted a strange syllable, and then the forty-nine red tokens in the hands of the stone statues surrounding the square stone platform simultaneously emitted a red beam of light towards the black circle.
The black circle began to turn blood-red, and under the envelopment of the red circle, the descent speed of the skull accelerated.
Soon, the floating skull in the air was less than ten centimeters away from the human head-shaped repulsive insect on the square stone platform.
However, the descent speed remained extremely slow, and the color of the red circle began to darken, while cracks appeared on the forty-nine stone statues surrounding the square stone platform.
Seeing that their resurrection ritual was about to fail, the twelve individuals from the Witch Sect, Five Poison Sect, and Ghost Sect all bit their left index fingers, causing them to bleed. They then formed seals with their left hands and simultaneously touched the red circle.
After twelve blood-red beams of light shot onto the circle, its originally dim color once again turned blood-red, and the skull continued to descend…
Only five centimeters left!
Leo, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, suddenly opened his eyes wide, and a gleam of brilliance flickered within his deep pupils.
The four members of the Witch Sect suddenly spewed a mouthful of blood and then turned their heads in unison towards Leo’s direction, revealing expressions of incredulity on their faces.
The Magic Curse had entered his body, yet he was unharmed. How was this possible!?
Not only the members of the Witch Sect, but also those from the Five Poison Sect and Ghost Sect were stunned.
While they were still in a daze, a golden light cut through the air, accompanied by a thunderous roar. The Divine Dragon Sword had struck the skull in mid-air.
The skull was instantly shattered by the Divine Dragon Sword.
After the skull was destroyed, the leader of the Ghost Sect’s body also exploded, turning into a mist of blood.
With a single strike, the Divine Dragon Sword, under Leo’s control, directly slashed at the human head-shaped repulsive insect on the square stone platform.
One slash, cleanly and without any hesitation.
The human head-shaped insect was not split in two but directly killed by the Divine Dragon Sword!
Time seemed to suddenly stop, and the eleven members of the Witch Sect, Five Poison Sect, and Ghost Sect stood there in shock.
In front of Leo, a sci-fi-like virtual screen appeared once again, displaying the words: “Successfully killed the Curse King, level up!”
Leo felt a warm current surging from his heart, spreading throughout his body, and his Spiritual Power rapidly increased.
In just a few breaths, Leo’s Spiritual Power became abundant, much stronger than before.
But before Leo could think too much, his vision suddenly went black.
It felt like a long time had passed, yet it also felt like a fleeting moment.
Leo’s eyes sensed the incoming light, and he slowly opened his eyes, seeing the ceiling of a room.
Turning his head around, he realized he was lying on a sofa.
As he sat up from the sofa, he noticed a note on the coffee table in front of him with a sentence written on it: “Handsome, thanks for your cooperation. I have arranged a room for you to rest. Take good care.”
Leo quickly got up and searched around the room but found no trace of Elizabeth.
Later, Leo learned Elizabeth’s true identity.
Elizabeth was a member of the WONDER Research Department, and she had developed a program that allowed people’s consciousness to enter the program for cultivation at the spiritual level.
However, due to many bugs in this miraculous program, no one at WONDER wanted to be her experimental guinea pig.
In the end, Elizabeth had to resort to deceit and trickery to make newly joined members of WONDER complete her program.
Since Leo joined WONDER, he had caught Elizabeth’s attention, which led to the previous encounter with the luxury car and beautiful woman.
After making a call to Professor Orlando, Leo headed back to Langstel.
When he returned to Langstel, it was already 7 PM. Leo drove his car from the clinic and headed to the Cloud Dream Mountain Villa area.
He decided to find Sophia and confess everything.
Just as his car was driving up Cloud Dream Mountain, his phone rang. It was Nora calling.
He answered the call.
“Mr. Bloomer, something’s wrong with Sophia!” Nora exclaimed urgently.
“Something’s wrong? Nora, what’s going on?”
“I’m not sure either, but Sophia is at home. She’s crying one moment, laughing the next, and then she’s holding a knife, acting like she’s gone insane.” Nora’s tone was filled with worry.
“Nora, I’ll be there right away!” Leo hung up the phone, stepped on the accelerator, and sped up.
Villa number nine in Cloud Dream Mountain, in the living room.
Sophia had disheveled hair, empty eyes, dilated pupils, and bloodshot eyes.
She would burst into crazy laughter from time to time and then burst into tears of sorrow.
“Evil spirits, when you see this immortal, bow down in reverence!” Sophia held a kitchen knife in one hand and pointed at Jessica cowering in the corner, shouting loudly.
Nora, who had secretly made the phone call, gathered her courage and approached, calling out in a gentle voice, “Sophia, what’s wrong? It’s me, Nora. Don’t you remember me?”
Sophia suddenly turned around, her eyes filled with anger, pointing the sword at Nora and sternly said, “Who are you, vile creature? How dare you appear before me! Taste my blade!”
After saying those words, Sophia, holding the knife, lunged at Nora.
