In the area that Han Fei was in, the Ziggurat was the scariest building, Cattle Alley was second. He remembered one thing, the non-locals controlled by the Butterfly never entered Cattle Alley.
At the time, Han Fei already thought Cattle Alley was very scary, even the Butterfly did not dare to enter it. But when he entered Cattle Alley, he realized it was not that dangerous, there was not even a Top Level Lingering Spirit.
Now that he thought about it, since he entered Cattle Alley, he had not seen a complete spider. The spider that he saw was pieced together from the many pig-faced monsters at Cattle Alley.
Be it the Heart of Evil used as a sacrifice or the Heart of Kindness used by the Doctor, they were essentially the Spider's heart.
The Doctor said the Spider's body was shared by all the monsters at Cattle Alley but did the monsters really share the Spider's body?
In the final battle between the Spider and the Doctor, the Spider only used one skill, which was to control the flesh and blood of Cattle Alley to crush it. His spider webs covered every inch of Cattle Alley. This skill alone was enough to subdue the Doctor. But as the eternal manager of Cattle Alley, did he really only know how to do this kind of simple and crude crushing?
How could the Spider, who could fight the Butterfly to a draw, allow himself to be controlled by his second persona?
The real Spider was a madman who was willing to kill eight copies of himself in order to defeat the Butterfly.
Therefore, Han Fei had a feeling that this was all part of the Spider's plan, a show for the Butterfly.
Cattle Alley preserved the humanity in this area. Just like how the Butterfly kept collecting 'flower pots' to create the non-locals, the Spider was also searching for wandering souls that carried humanity.
The Butterfly tried its best to create another Spider to prevent the nightmare from becoming reality, to prevent the Butterfly from being killed by the knife that could slaughter a butcher.
Spider, on the other hand, was the complete opposite. He split the Heart of Kindness and Heart of Evil and gathered the last bit of humanity that he could find in the cryptic world to forge the knife from the Butterfly's nightmare!
The two battled from real life to the cryptic world. Neither succeeded in killing the other until Han Fei appeared.
With Han Fei's help, Spider forged the blade that had never existed in the cryptic world. This blade would slay more than just butterflies in the future.
The blood vessels were imbued with sin. The power was completely different from the resentment and hatred in the Lingering Spirit's body. It was a power that Han Fei had not encountered in the cryptic world.
If most ghosts and monsters were good at manipulating negative emotions and despair, then the spider's power came from a kind of repentance for their sins.
The amulet that had been hanging on the writer's window was opened by Han Fei. The blood vessels that were stained with sin sliced through the night sky of the butterfly. Under the night sky, it weaved a spider web that was impossible to escape.
Normally, the Butterfly was able to dodge the spider webs, but now that it had lost its ability to move, the spiders scattered in front of it.
The Spider had been waiting for this moment for a long time. He was like a predator hiding in the deepest part of the spider's web, only revealing his fangs at the most critical moment.
Innumerable blood vessels landed on the Butterfly. The spider web of sin enveloped the Butterfly. It flapped its wings made from nightmares but no matter how intense the pain and despair on its wings were, it could not break the thin 'spider web'.
Death Curse could bring despair, it could use all negative emotions to strengthen itself but it was powerless against repentance and redemption for sin.
Every single thread of Spider's web was forged from his consciousness. They were tempered in his mental world. They were the link between reality and illusion, they were his understanding of humanity and his desire to kill.
Over the past 10 years, the cryptic world had given Spider a place to think. His eyes had seen the border between life and death. The Spider now was much scarier than the Spider in real life.
"The biggest mistake I've made was not killing you in real life." The more the Butterfly struggled, the more the blood red spider web gathered on its body. The pair of wings that seemed to steal all the colors from the cryptic world flapped furiously. Finally, the Butterfly stirred up its own darkness.
Black butterflies crawled out from the darkness and attacked all the tenants inside the building.
Some of the Lingering Spirits were caught off guard and their souls were pierced through by the black butterflies. After the black butterflies fed on the Lingering Spirits, they carried the Death Curse back into the Butterfly's body.
The Butterfly was the manager of the Ziggurat but it was completely different from Han Fei. It treated all the wandering spirits inside the Ziggurat as its food and tools. If necessary, it would kill them all to trade for a chance of survival.
In comparison, to save the people at Happiness Neighbourhood, Han Fei used himself as bait and used his level 13 body to lure the Unspeakable Song away.
They were both managers but they were so different people.
"You no longer have the chance to kill me." The blood light shone on the Spider's body. He used one finger to move the blood red spider web. The 8 shadows behind him seemed to have received some kind of order and they started to expand rapidly.
Each of them had a bleeding butcher's knife stuck in their hearts. They grabbed the Butterfly's trapped wings and tore them apart in 8 different directions!
After the Butterfly's wings were grabbed by the shadows, Zhuang Wen and Old Ghost who were under Mengchen's influence slowly regained their sanity. Little Eight also made use of this opportunity to pummel the Butterfly.
The glowing wings were broken. The situation seemed to be tilting in the Spider's favor. However, the Spider did not let his guard down. His eyes fell on Han Fei.
Even in such a disadvantageous situation, the Butterfly still did not give up on Han Fei. It still wanted to perform the Soul Summoning Ritual. This meant that it was not at the end of its rope yet.
The Butterfly's handsome face was covered in livor mortis. There was no trace of calmness left on its face. Its eyes were filled with chilliness.
"You will regret this. Everything is just a nightmare. But you won't even have the chance to win against me in this nightmare." The Butterfly's words seemed to carry a deeper meaning. After it said that, several blood vessels protruded from its empty chest.
The blood vessels resonated with the altar beneath Han Fei's feet and they connected to the broken heart.
The Butterfly could not use the blood vessels to remove the Great Sin from the heart so it shoved the heart and the Great Sin into its chest.
The altar shattered inside the giant cocoon. The Butterfly's hope of overcoming its hatred was gone. It used the power from the broken heart to devour all the Death Curses inside the Ziggurat.
The ghosts from every house were dragged into its darkness. The woman in the wedding dress who had been hiding in the corner, the female streamer who was blocked outside Apartment 4, the madman in Apartment 1, the old lady on the top floor and even Zhuang Ren's eldest daughter in Room 4144 were affected by the Death Curses. If not for the broken statue in her arms, she would have been crushed already.
The Butterfly devoured everything inside the Ziggurat. The buildings collapsed one by one. Everyone wailed in despair but the paper dolls made by the Butterfly continued to beat the drums, filling the Ziggurat with sorrowful music.
"You will die in my nightmare, I will become your new nightmare, resurrecting on your dead bodies!"
The Butterfly blocked everyone's attack. Before its wings were torn apart, it used the blood vessels to grab the old lady's neck.
Of all the tenants in the Ziggurat, the old lady was the only one who did not resist the Butterfly.
"Granny, there are 30 plus people in my family but they all treat me as a joke and a monster. Only you have spoken up for me."
The old lady couldn't breathe. Her neck was deformed, and her eyes were filled with tears.
"But I know you have never loved me, you don't even know my name." The blood vessels pulled harder and pulled the old lady towards its heart. "That sentence has cost you 10 years of your life but now it's time for you to reunite with them."
The old lady's soul was shoved into the broken heart. The heart cracked open and inside was the 30 plus faces of the Butterfly's family. They were crushed and glued together to live inside the broken heart.
After the old lady's soul returned, the broken heart started to beat. Blood vessels crawled out from the Butterfly's chest like new flesh.
The Butterfly that had summoned most of the Death Curse from the Ziggurat grabbed the closet door behind it. It smirked coldly at the group. It blasted the ugly tumor under its body open. Then it grabbed Han Fei's body and pushed open the door to Closet 4444.
The broken wings flapped madly. Before the Butterfly entered the door, it moved Han Fei closer to the broken heart. New blood vessels crawled into Han Fei's body.
The Butterfly wanted to forcefully complete the Soul Return Ritual. It wanted to take over Han Fei's body and consciousness and then leave through the nightmare.
Perhaps due to the Great Sin's interference, the blood vessels moved very slowly. Using the time bought by the Great Sin, Spider, Little Eight and the people from Happiness Neighbourhood rushed towards Closet 4444.
The spider web restricted the Butterfly's movement but it could not swallow Han Fei to complete the Soul Return Ritual.
Both sides were racing against time. Spider's 8 shadows tore through the Butterfly's wings and the Death Curse heavily injured the people from the Ziggurat.
Just as the battle reached its climax, a hand picked up the Blade of Rebirth that had fallen to the ground.
The Evil Soul with half his face soaked in blood picked up the blade from the ground.
The Old Ghost's body had been completely destroyed by the Death Curse. The human faces were blurred and his skin was like the bark of a century-old tree. His long hair had turned white.
The black flames of hatred had already disappeared, but the Butterfly Death Curse was still active in the hatred.
'Will all my future generations have to carry this mark on their backs?'
The Old Ghost used the last of his energy to stand up straight. His old hands gripped the Blade of Rebirth. The souls on his back shattered one by one and crawled into the hilt.
Moving silently among the dead bodies, the Old Ghost gripped the bladeless blade.
With every step he took, a piece of his back would break. The large soul was shrinking but the black flame of hatred that was about to extinguish burned stubbornly.
When only the Evil Soul's face was left on his back, the silent Old Ghost finally spoke, "I can't use your blade anymore, now it's your turn to take over this bloodline."
"Will we meet again in the future?"
"As long as the bloodline doesn't break, we'll live on your back forever and support you."
"I'll pass on this to your child. Do you have anything else to say?"
"That's all." The Old Ghost's face and the face of the Evil Soul on his back became blurred at the same time. After a large and clear soul crawled into the Blade of Rebirth, the faces on the Old Ghost's back all disappeared. His own face became the Evil Soul's.
"Your eyes are a little wet. Are you crying? Why did you run away from home when you knew your family treated you so well? But you're lucky to have escaped the disaster of your family's destruction. " The Evil Soul gripped the Blade of Rebirth tightly. The black flame of hatred in his heart began to burn. He gradually sped up, and the expression on his face changed from calm to complete madness!
He sprinted with all his might. An old arm slowly appeared on the hilt that he held tightly. Then, many hands grabbed the hilt together with him!
The dazzling blade cut through the butterfly's darkness almost instantly. The Old Ghost burned his own soul in exchange for the Evil Soul's strength!
This short moment of light illuminated everyone.
The Evil Soul dragged the Blade of Rebirth and used the blade made of human nature to cut open the broken heart on the butterfly's chest!
"I'll make your nightmare come true!"
