Yama Rising
chapter-594

Moreover, there were countless scratch marks, bloody handprints and irregular and distorted writing everywhere on the walls. Meanwhile, the MV Sewol abruptly slowed down in the corridor, almost as though it had just encountered the most terrifying Yin spirit ever.

They looked no different from the benches placed around at old hospitals.

And they were all wearing the uniforms issued to them by the mental asylum to boot!

“Uurrrrghh…”

“I’m not afraid… I’m not afraid…” Wang Chenghao felt goosebumps creeping up all over his body. The corridor was filled with many psychiatric patients that lined benches along the sides of the corridor, while the lights swayed softly above him. He took several deep breaths, and then took a closer look.

Bzzt… bzzt… The corridor was silent as a morgue. Then, just as Wang Chenghao glanced around, the 42 psychiatric patients raised their heads abruptly, and then… revealed a hair-raising smile at the same time!

Almost as though they had just discovered the best toy or the most delectable delight. Some drooled from their lips, while blood seeped out of the lips of others. Wang Chenghao’s heart instantly skipped a beat!

He wanted to jump down and rush forward like how Oda Nobutada had done on several occasions, but… he couldn’t. His legs were shaking too hard.

“AHHHHHH!!!” His scream resounded throughout the entire corridor. Then, as soon as he landed on the ground, he lowered his head and barrelled forward straight towards the iron door.

“Heh… here comes another…” “Welcome…” “Come… join us…”

But just then, he suddenly paused right where he was.

What is this sound?!

Thump, thump… Thump, thump! The thumping sounds grew increasingly crisp and clear. A split second later, they grew louder than Wang Chenghao’s footsteps itself, filling the entire corridor with the oppressiveness of its irregularity.

There was nothing.

This time, he heard the sound of ping pong balls.

The dean of Gonjiam Asylum that had vanished… was said to have loved playing ping pong when he was alive…

Nobody knew what lay within, nor did anybody desire to know what lay within. That said, the significance of the sound of ping pong balls was a ubiquitous tale that had been passed down from generation to generation.

It was almost as though the bolted iron door hid the way into the morrowind underworld!

The sound of clanging iron caused an electrifying sensation so surge through his mind. At once, he drew another deep breath and turned back to the iron door.

“Gulp…” Wang Chenghao gulped nervously. As far as he could tell, the bolt on the iron door had fallen off, revealing three numbers in striking red lettering - ‘402’.

“Is that you…?” A hoarse voice spoke from behind the door. With a soft gulp, Wang Chenghao took a step back.

“Is that you? Have you finally arrived?” The man’s voice appeared more eager than ever, “Come… come over here… You and I are supposed to be one body… Come to me!!!”

Creeaaaaakk… The iron door opened wider and wider. Meanwhile, Wang Chenghao stopped retreating altogether.

At once, countless thoughts flowed through his mind, and everything slowly began to fit into place to form a coherent story.

So had his earlier statements.

I’ve found it… Wang Chenghao’s jaws dropped as he took several more steps back reflexively. Even then, he continued to stare intently at the darkness on the other side of the door - I’ve found it… I’ve actually found this place! All I need to do now is to drive the MV Sewol in, and then forcibly drag it out of the Yin Yang Mezzanine, and… my job would be complete!

He paused for a moment, and then chuckled bitterly.

Everyone has a fixed role, and everyone is clearly doing their best. And now… it’s finally time for me to step up…

Instead, he was filled with a deep sense of responsibility. He was filled with the notion that he must never let the rest down, and it was this sense of responsibility that filled him with a peculiar sense of feverish passion!

He didn’t say another word. At once, thick Yin energy shrouded around his entire body, and a behemoth appeared.

“So… you guys know fear too, huh…” The face on his chest and abdomen revealed a strange smile. And then, with a deep breath, he charged straight into Room 402!

Who cares what I might be?

Thunk, thunk, thunk! The entire corridor trembled under the weight of the behemoth. The sarcophagus grew silent for a moment, before the man within hissed coldly, “Kill him!”

The head’s features were all obscured by his disheveled hair, revealing only a single scarlet eye that peeked out from within!

SSS!!! Faced with Wang Chenghao’s unrelenting charge, the Yin spirit abruptly opened its mouth to half a meter in size and unleashed a heart-rending scream. At once, countless pitch-black hands emerged from behind the door and began to grab desperately at Wang Chenghao like a raging wave!

“DIEEE!!!!” It was only by yelling at the top of his voice that Wang Chenghao could ease the fear in his heart. Thus, he shouted in a maddened frenzy as he charged forward at top speed. Like a hurtling meteor, he left a trail of netherflames in the wake of his charge of destruction. Meanwhile, pieces of armor appeared out of nowhere and adhered themselves to his body. Finally, a spear immolating with green netherflames materialized from the air, and Wang Chenghao wielded it valiantly like a war hero.

He absolutely had to cut down all obstruction before the MV Sewol could arrive at the iron door itself!

………………………………………..

He had felt sufficiently vented, and he waved his hands as though nothing happened, “Is everything alright down under?”

As they spoke, Rumyantsev promptly transformed into a stream of nethergale and prepared to rush right into the vortex.

Rumyantsev and Liu Yu paused and turned back in astonishment. A dazzling golden light shone radiantly, transforming into an indomitable arrow that flew straight towards the vortex!

“How can you still be alive after being struck by my Dark Soul Inferno?!”

1. He uses his nipples as eyes and belly button as a mouth.
