Exorcist's Self-Cultivation-Chapter 684 - 681 Counterattack Counterattack

Chapter 684: 681, Counterattack! Counterattack! Chapter 684: 681, Counterattack! Counterattack! The moment Du Wei’s empty eyes opened,

the world within the painting underwent a tremendous transformation.

The original school directly turned into a mist interwoven with black and white, and so did James and Tiquel.

This change was an ability of Du Wei, the Controller of the painting.

He could create a world.

A world that conformed to his perception, although it was impossible to kill Rahmer or even some Demon Spirits, it was enough to create a deception.

Rahmer, at the moment the sarcophagus opened, did not actually enter the real interior of the sarcophagus, but instead, entered the world woven by Du Wei.

In that world, everything would be as Rahmer imagined.

...

At the very least, it would be deceived by the Illusion for a while, killing the false Du Wei in that world before realizing it had been tricked.

And now,

Du Wei had already taken control of Mapa’s Pen.

Before the sarcophagus opened, it was possible he had control over Mapa’s Pen, or perhaps not.

But with the opening of the sarcophagus, everything became certain.

He used various means to brainwash Mapa’s Pen inside the sarcophagus, so that once it was opened, the situation would turn to another extreme.

The world inside the painting was evolving.

It was a past unfamiliar to Du Wei, but also a variation of the Victorian Era he experienced inside Hell’s Gate.

And in the past he wove, Mapa’s Pen had always been his creation.

In the blink of an eye.

The world within the painting evolved into countless different versions.

In some versions, Du Wei became a Demon God, controlled Mapa’s Pen, and destroyed the world.

In others, he used Mapa’s Pen to create Evil Spirits, yet he abandoned some, placing them into Hell’s Gate, waiting for the moment he would regain them in the future.

This was brainwashing, as well as a counterstrike.

After all, regardless of whether others believed it or not, Du Wei believed he was the true master of Mapa’s Pen.

Brainwashing became more prevalent.

Even Mapa’s Pen began to waver.

The Illusion that originally flooded into Du Wei’s mind gradually shifted in a strange direction.

It seemed to believe that Du Wei was its master and Matthew was just a spare.

However,

Du Wei was well aware that lies would eventually be exposed, especially since the target of his deception was Mapa’s Pen itself. Given the opportunity, it would surely break free from the influence of brainwashing.

“That’s why I’ll turn everything into fact.”

Du Wei held Mapa’s Pen and stood up from the sarcophagus.

Now, his eyes were intact.

This was clearly abnormal.

Taking advantage of the fact that Mapa’s Pen was brainwashed, and now that the situation had finally changed, Du Wei’s counterattack arrived.

And the world of the painting was also collapsing.

The huge shadow of Rahmer broke through the rules of the painting.

If this painting were not related to the curse of the nun and suspected to be something of the Demon God Valak, it wouldn’t possibly have stopped Rahmer.

But now it too had reached its limit.

Whoosh…

Like the sound of roaring waves, this sound did not come to the ears but resounded directly in the mind.

It was as if an uninvited guest had appeared in the thoughts.

Du Wei stood atop the sarcophagus, looking coldly downward.

The Demon God Rahmer was right below.

Its head was pushing against the sarcophagus, attempting to burst through to the sky.

It seemed to want to take Du Wei to another world.

Du Wei’s mind was filled with reason, and immediately, he acted.

Picking up Mapa’s Pen, he began writing rules into the void.

“This is an unsolvable rule: when I close my eyes, all discordant beings will be trapped in the Inner World, while I will return to reality and begin writing the second rule.”

Discordant referred to beings that did not align with Du Wei’s worldview.

After he finished writing,

The painting was then subject to this additional rule.

Killing Rahmer within the painting was implausible, so escape was the only option. Only by returning to reality could Du Wei’s power be fully utilized.

Then, Du Wei truly closed his eyes.

But the hands in the eyes of the Demon God Rahmer began to twist counterclockwise once again. It intended to repeat its old trick and leave Du Wei behind again.

Indeed, its bug-like temporal ability took effect.

Standing atop the stone coffin, Du Wei was frozen in place.

Everything around him seemed to revert to what it had been before.

However, at that moment,

The stone coffin simply vanished.

Instead, Du Wei, standing on the coffin, fell directly into the eyes of Rahmer and turned to dust.

But Rahmer went mad.

Its vast shadowy form stretched out its hands as if it had grabbed something. With a fierce pull, there was the sound of something snapping.

…

In the outside world.

At the door of the Dusk Bell Church.

With a thud,

Three stone coffins appeared out of thin air, crashing to the ground.

James and Tiquel also materialized, landing on the ground with their eyes tightly shut and faces pale as death. If not for the rise and fall of their chests, one might think they were already dead.

The very next second,

The lid of the middle coffin flew off, landing on the ground beside it.

Du Wei kicked the stone coffin away.

He was covered in blood, his eyes oozing blood, clutching Mapa’s Pen as he quickly scrambled out of the coffin.

He was now completely blind.

And it was by his own hands that he had destroyed his eyes.

Before him was nothingness; he had utterly lost the sensory ability of sight.

Fortunately, the shadows beneath him overlapped with his own.

The shadow’s eyes filled with blood vessels took the place of Du Wei’s original eyes, temporarily serving as his eyes.

Then,

Du Wei saw James and Tiquel lying on the ground.

He frowned, his blood-red eyes gazing towards the other two coffins.

The rule he had written was simple, anything that didn’t match his recognition was left in the Inner World, and naturally, that included the shadow, Envelope, Freddy, Pennywise, as well as James and the others.

It was expected that James and Tiquel would return to reality alive.

For the stone coffins to return to reality made sense too.

But in Du Wei’s plan, those two were supposed to be inside the coffins, not outside.

Suddenly…

Du Wei thought of something.

With a wave of his hand, one of the remaining coffins was opened.

Lying inside was Ryan, wearing a white lab coat with his eyes tightly shut.

Du Wei breathed a sigh of relief.

But following that, a clicking sound came from inside the Dusk Bell Church.

It was raining outside, the noise was loud, and normally one shouldn’t have been able to hear anything, but that sound ignored all hindrances and struck directly into Du Wei’s heart.

“It’s Rahmer…”

The rule that Du Wei wrote with Mapa’s Pen couldn’t contain Rahmer, for it still could pursue him from the Inner World and was about to return to reality.

However,

This too was within Du Wei’s expectations.

He gripped Mapa’s Pen and wrote another rule.

[True fear often stems from oneself, deep in everyone’s subconscious. There lies something they fear, and the most primitive fear is often darkness.]

[Because darkness is endless, and you can never see its end.]

[This rule is written specifically for the Demon God Rahmer; the medium for its realization is the Dusk Bell Church. Any being that enters the Dusk Bell Church will be severed from reality and turn into the true Ghost Dimension.]

[It will cease to exist yet exist in another world. Beings that enter cannot return to reality by any means, trapped in an eternal loop forever.]
