Chapter 455 The body was hollowed out
Not only the candidates taking the test, but even the demon invigilating the test were stunned. Xingluo's hand speed was the result of countless painful training. Even though the magic was sealed, this thing that had been integrated into his bones was still gradually flashing a dazzling light. Xingluo was immersed in this test. Everything in the outside world had disappeared from his sight, and even his ears could no longer hear the outside world. At this moment, all he saw was the test, the cursed object and the parchment scroll.
Xingluo was immersed in it, and his magic power was also advancing by leaps and bounds. This state was hard to come by and even more terrifying than deep meditation. Although there were competitors all around, no one dared to disturb Xingluo, and no one was willing to disturb him, because for them, what Xingluo did was of great help to them. If they could understand Xingluo's current state, Xingluo's methods of processing materials, and Xingluo's creativity in making cursed objects, their future achievements would be higher. Some people tried to break free from watching, but most of them failed. Although the exam was still going on, these people could not miss the visual sound this time, and could not miss this opportunity to improve.
Finally, a bright light came out from Xingluo's side, and the cold darkness of the cursed object was dispelled in an instant, and then even the light disappeared. Xingluo, relying on his own strength, refined a cursed object that reached the state of no darkness in a short period of time. At this time, many people participating in the assessment screamed, followed by a tide of applause. After hearing the cheers, Xingluo slowly came back to his senses, looked around, and then remembered that he was taking an assessment and was immersed in it accidentally. This made Xingluo scratch his head embarrassedly. The questions on the cursed object and the parchment scroll had been completed, and Xingluo looked at the demon in the middle.
The other party had been looking at Xingluo. When he looked at the cursed object in Xingluo's hand, a creepy atmosphere spread out instantly. This was because Xingluo intentionally activated the cursed object. Otherwise, when he entered the realm of no darkness, it would be difficult to detect the dark elements in the cursed object. At this time, the appearance of the cursed object was full of mystery and horror.
The cursed object made by Xingluo is a simple-looking wooden box, covered with a thick layer of black paint, as if it had been eroded for countless years. The edge of the box is engraved with complex and strange symbols, which seem to glow with a faint dark red light, giving people a gloomy and ominous premonition when excited.
There was a blurry crystal embedded on the top of the wooden box, emitting a faint green light, as if a cold and resentful eye was staring at you. When the high-level demon approached the crystal, he felt a chill as sharp as a needle tip. This chill penetrated the demon's hard armor-like skin and made him shiver involuntarily. The high-level demon looked at Xingluo in surprise again. He still underestimated Xingluo. Was he really a high-level magician? Knowing the truth, he began to question this at this moment.
After opening the wooden box, inside was a small piece of old, worn-out cloth with broken edges. On the cloth was painted a blood-red eye that stared straight at people. The eye seemed alive and could always catch the gaze of the viewer. No matter from which angle you looked, the eye was always staring back at you, making you feel uncomfortable as if you had nowhere to escape and were being stared at.
What was even more horrifying was that underneath the cloth was a small tuft of withered hair and several yellowed and deformed finger bones. The hair exuded a rotten but faintly bloody smell, and the surface of the finger bones was engraved with tiny and dense unknown runes, each of which seemed to be telling of some ancient and evil curse.
The inside of the box is covered with a strange substance that looks like a half-dried, half-fluid mucus. Sometimes it wriggles slightly, making people wonder if it has life. Although there is no obvious smell, when you get close to it, you will always feel a suffocating and oppressive feeling, as if you have fallen into a bottomless abyss and cannot escape no matter how hard you struggle.
Overall, all the designs and details of this cursed object reveal its horrible origin and evil power, and every part of it is filled with an atmosphere of death and despair. This is not just an ordinary cursed item, but more like a core prop in a dark witchcraft ritual. Its existence itself is a threat to life. It is hard to imagine that Xingluo made it in such a short time. If you accidentally encounter it and don't stay away from it, it is not difficult to predict that something terrible will happen in the next second.
After mastering the Abyssal Language, the power of the cursed object will be greatly increased when using Abyssal Magic. This time, he used the Abyssal Language to complete the final ritual for the cursed object. Xingluo used the dark element to create a small range of cold midnight environment around him. Even the sky above was covered by heavy dark clouds, and the moonlight could not penetrate the layers of darkness. The cold wind whistled past, blowing the withered yellow leaves and making a shrill rustling sound. In the silent and desolate depths of darkness, Xingluo, wearing a black cloak, was performing a dark ritual for the cursed object.
Xingluo's actions forced high-level demons to look over here, it was too conspicuous. The environment in other places was normal, but Xingluo's environment had changed drastically. Normally, a mere high-level magician could not affect the environment, but Xingluo had reached the resonance level of spellcasting, and had the mental power of a great magician, so he had achieved all these at the high-level magician stage. In fact, Xingluo did not want to do this, but he was too immersed in making this cursed object, which led to a series of abnormalities.
Xingluo used dark materials to increase the magic level and formed an ancient and complex circular formation. This formation was composed of countless strange symbols and patterns, and each symbol seemed to contain unfathomable abyssal power. In the center was placed the chilling cursed object - an ancient wooden box. At this time, it was shrouded in a dark red candle light, which made it even more mysterious and terrifying.
At the beginning of the ceremony, in order to enhance the effect of the curse, Xingluo put on the mask he had made before, a prop that could enhance his own magic power. He held an old parchment with complex and obscure spells full of evil breath on it. This was an amplification scroll written in advance with materials containing powerful dark power to make up for the lack of magic power. He began to chant in a low and cold voice, and the voice seemed to come from the endless abyss, and every sentence made people feel cold in their hearts. Others also followed his rhythm and subconsciously repeated these terrifying spells with different tones and rhythms. From this point, it can be seen that Xingluo's mental power is strong enough to affect the spirits of the people around him. They are like being hypnotized by Xingluo, helping Xingluo to complete this cursed object together. Some people have strong mental power and try to break free from this hypnotic control, but fail and suffer backlash, vomiting a lot of blood. Others who helped Xingluo complete the ceremony were also in low spirits, as if their bodies were hollowed out.
