The fairies I flirted with in the game became real?!

Chapter 384 Curse of the Bloodline

At that moment, Li Muyang started to wonder if Granny Gu was joking.

In the previous game, even Nameless's cheating account with 'Time Stop' skills and 'Instant Kill' flying swords couldn't clear the ancient cursed well infested with Evil Gods.

In the end, the only option was to avoid the Evil Gods.

Now, Jiang Xiaoyu, a complete novice, without Little Wild Grass's protection, where even the roadside beasts could jump out and kick him twice, was to enter that dark space alone and face the numerous Evil Gods...

Was this not a death sentence?

But at this point, although suspicious in his mind, Li Muyang could only follow the arrangements and continue with the plot.

Following behind Granny Gu, Li Muyang, and Little Wild Grass crossed the fort and arrived at the grand entrance of the ancestral temple at the highest part of Black Cloud Fort.

Black Cloud Fort now, compared to twenty years ago, seemed to have no major changes, with the houses still in their original layout, only the faces of the villagers had changed.

Jiang Xiaoyu, who had left as a youth, now had white temples and looked like a middle-aged man weathered by hardships.

He stood side by side with Little Wild Grass, who, eternally youthful, seemed more like his daughter.

Many people in Black Cloud Fort curiously eyed them, with whispers from the villagers faintly audible behind them, wondering who this father-daughter duo were and why they followed Granny Gu.

Li Muyang pretended not to hear them and quickly followed Granny Gu to the front of the ancestral temple.

The eerie and weird ancestral temple looked the same as when he had left, with no changes at all.

Granny Gu stood at the entrance and said to Li Muyang, "Xiaoyu, go on in."

Granny Gu handed Li Muyang an oil lamp, "Once inside, keep walking forward, don't stop, and don't look back. Someone will guide you on what to do."

Granny Gu's instructions were simple yet vague.

As soon as she finished speaking, a system notification popped up in front of Li Muyang.

[Main Quest—The Curse of Bloodlines has begun]

[The Curse of Bloodlines: Within the bloodlines of ancient Evil Gods, powerful strengths and terrifying curses are concealed. Step into the ancient cursed well, seek the protection of ancestral spirits of Evil Bloodlines, and dispel the curse.]

Little Wild Grass hesitated and said, "Granny, can I go in with big brother?"

Little Wild Grass was concerned about Li Muyang going in alone and wanted to accompany him.

However, Granny Gu glanced at her and said, "You're not a descendant of our bloodline, why go in? To seek death?"

"Although you have some strength, going in would just serve as an extra meal for the Evil Gods."

"Forget about you, even if a real Immortal was to step into this ancestral temple... heh... not to boast, but even an Immortal couldn't leave this place!"

After speaking, Granny Gu said to Li Muyang, "Xiaoyu, it's still not too late to regret."

"Once you go in, there will be no way back."

Granny Gu handed him the oil lamp, and Li Muyang, without hesitation, took the lamp and smilingly said to Little Wild Grass beside him.

"Wait for me outside, I'll be right back."

After a quick save, Li Muyang holding the oil lamp stepped into the ancestral temple.

His resolute figure earned Granny Gu's admiration.

As soon as Li Muyang entered the ancestral temple, the door behind him instantly closed, and the view ahead turned dark, no longer revealing any light.

A kind of chilling atmosphere pervaded the air.

In a daze, Li Muyang seemed to hear numerous terrifying and deep murmurs echoing in his ears.

He held up the oil lamp, and soon the wick inside it spontaneously ignited.

But the light emitted from the burning wick was an eerie hideous green.

The hideous green light fell on him and beneath his feet, and only then did Li Muyang realize the ground he was treading upon was a barren wasteland.

He continued forward with the oil lamp, faintly feeling as though many eyes were watching him from the surrounding darkness.

Despite walking through the empty barren wilderness with the lamp, seeing nothing in his view, Li Muyang still felt as if huge ghostly shadows filled every direction.

In the darkness that the oil lamp could not illuminate, it seemed numerous terrifying Evil Gods were watching him impassively.

"...keep walking, move forward."

A deep, hoarse voice suddenly sounded in Li Muyang's ear.

"No matter what you hear or see, don't stop, and don't look back."

When this deep, hoarse voice rang out, Li Muyang felt an inexplicable kinship, as if it belonged to a relative of this body.

But the next second, the deep voice disappeared.

He instinctively followed the voice's command and continued forward.

But in the wilderness ahead, suddenly appeared dense thorns, bottomless abyss cliffs, and pools of magma rolling with heatwaves...

One perilous scene after another appeared ahead, yet Li Muyang remained resolute in moving forward.

Thus, one illusion after another was trampled underfoot by him, and these dangerous and horrifying illusions did not affect him.

Finally, the illusions disappeared.

In their place was a call that echoed behind Li Muyang.

"...Big brother! Come back!"

The voice of Little Wild Grass sounded behind him, urgent and anxious: "Granny Gu said you took the wrong path, you need to come back quickly. The direction you're heading is where the Evil Gods are located!"

"Big brother! If you keep going forward, you'll die!"

The urgent voice of Little Wild Grass rang out, and Li Muyang's body uncontrollably turned around.

The next second...

[You have died, game over]

The failure notification that popped up in his field of view left Li Muyang somewhat speechless.

"Can this body still be controlled?"

Li Muyang decided absurdly, reopened the game save file, and re-entered.

It was still the ever-shifting dark world of illusions, with Li Muyang carrying a lantern as he moved forward.

Yet at this moment, the voice of Little Wild Grass rang out from behind him.

"Big brother! Come back!"

However, the moment the voice sounded, Li Muyang directly raised the lantern in his hand and threw it towards the direction of the voice without looking back.

The lantern, burning with a dismal green flame, cut through the darkness and instantly struck something, bursting into brilliant, dismal green flames.

The voice of Little Wild Grass abruptly stopped.

Seconds later, the lantern Li Muyang had thrown returned to his hand.

He then let out a light breath of relief and continued moving forward with the lantern raised.

But not long after, illusions appeared again in front of him.

In the sinister Black Cloud Fort, Granny Gu stood in front of the ancestral temple with a grim expression and said to Li Muyang.

"Jiang Xiaoyu! What are you doing here? Hurry up and get back! Go back to where you should be!"

Granny Gu's voice, carrying an undeniable command, made one want to obey.

Li Muyang's right leg even started moving uncontrollably to turn back.

To regain control of his leg's direction, Li Muyang fiercely raised the lantern in his hand and viciously stabbed it into his uncontrollable right leg.

Blood suddenly burst open in the darkness, as Li Muyang fiercely stabbed the sharp handle of the lantern deep into his thigh.

A ghastly white ghost violently emerged from Li Muyang's thigh.

It cackled with a high-pitched laugh and viciously thrust its elongated, sharp claws into Li Muyang's chest.

Li Muyang's vision immediately went dark, and the world around him spun...
