Paper Bride VS Demon Corpse

The carrion-eating demon roared and charged toward the floating paper figure!

Claws and fangs reached out to grab and sweep at the paper figures, but the paper figures were light and weightless. The strong wind from the claws made them flutter away like willow catkins.

However, as the claws retracted, the paper figure eerily floated closer, its pale arms wrapping around the carrion demon's body like whips, and the scarlet mouth drawn on the white paper suddenly opened, transforming into the monster's gaping maw!

*Thud!* It sounded like cowhide being torn!

A carrion demon let out a mournful howl as its entire body was twisted and stretched by the enormous suction force generated by the paper mouth, and it was forcibly sucked into the paper figure's body!

On the paper figure's thin chest, a struggling, writhing outline suddenly swelled up, then subsided, leaving only a distorted shadow on the paper.

However, more of the carrion demons were engulfed in hellfire, which then spread throughout their bodies.

The sulfur flames licked at the paper figure, making a sizzling sound as they burned. The pale white paper surface instantly turned black, curled, and torn!

The paper figure emitted a silent shriek, and a cold, bluish-green phosphorescent flame suddenly rose from its wound, colliding fiercely with the hellfire before being annihilated!

Although the paper figure was not burned, its body was riddled with holes and its movements were noticeably sluggish.

Just as the paper figure was locked in battle with the carrion-eating demons, Chen Xue, the demon who was bracing herself against the ground with her joints reversed, let out a violent roar and exerted force with her limbs, cracking the hard ground!

Like a cannonball, it hurtled straight at the paper bride on the sedan chair at an astonishing speed!

"laugh--"

The paper bride's sedan chair, along with its bearers, floated away as if weightless, accompanied by a rustling sound from all around—

Splash! Sizzle!

The aquatic plants, fallen leaves, and wild grass on the ground seemed to be endowed with a crazy vitality, growing countless times in an instant. The tough grass stems, like the tentacles of an octopus, coiled around the attacking demon with lightning speed!

In just a moment, the demon was bound tightly, like an extra-large rice dumpling.

Roar!

As the sulfur flames inside the rice dumpling rose, the demon's arms struggled violently, snapping the entwined grass stems one by one. Without any hesitation, it leaped dozens of meters and pounced on the paper bride!

The paper bride's sedan chair was carried by palanquin bearers, flickering ghostly, always a step ahead of the demon's movements. At the same time, all sorts of tree roots and aquatic plants kept emerging from the ground, layer upon layer, entwining her!

The demons relentlessly tore through their restraints with brute force and hellfire, advancing step by step. The two supernatural beings engaged in a dazzling battle in the shadow of the moon-eating celestial dog, flashing constantly and scattering bits of grass and mud everywhere!

"Damn it!" Constantine wasn't idle either. His rune revolver had done its best, blasting away a lot of carrion demons, but he had run out of bullets. Now he started to use the holy knuckle duster for hand-to-hand combat.

Qin Jin and Alessa weren't of much help!

In Qin Jin's hands, neither the Glock nor the Gru Red Eagle could kill the devil, so he simply chose to shoot the devil Chen Xue. Since he couldn't kill her anyway, he might as well shoot the bigger one!

After her bloodlust subsided, Aresa pulled two grenades from the doll. Although she was still being tortured, her rationality had recovered considerably, and she was trying to find an opportunity to throw the grenades!

Bang bang bang! Bang bang!

The bullets struck the devil's dark red skin as if shooting rubber. The Glock bullets left almost no white marks. The Glock Red Hawk could tear through the skin, but the bullets did not penetrate deeply. Black, fiery blood flowed from the hole, which then began to slowly heal.

His function was similar to harassment; he was practically useless.

Finally, at a crucial moment—

boom!

Alessa accurately threw the melon grenade right in front of Chen Xue, the devil, and it exploded precisely!

Fragments from the explosion pierced the demon's head, knocking out its teeth and drawing black blood. The demon suddenly turned around and unleashed a deafening roar!

Roar!

Just then!

"go!"

The paper bride's wide sleeves suddenly swung out!

In an instant, countless pale, round ghost money coins, like snowflakes falling from the sky, surged out of her sleeve!

*Snap snap snap snap snap snap!* A series of crisp, rapid cracking sounds instantly enveloped Chen Xue's entire body!

Not only the head and torso, but even the limbs were wrapped in ghost money, instantly forming a huge ball of paper money!

The monster's movements were instantly sealed by the paper money. It roared and struggled desperately, but it couldn't break free for a while.

"Now! In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, you defiled thing, roll back into your abyss—"

Constable Dante, however, knew how to seize an opportunity. Taking advantage of this precious moment, he suddenly burst forth from nowhere, leaping into the air and slamming the Bible in his hand down on the demon's body—

He's trying to use the Bible to send this thing back to hell!

but!

Bang-!

It wasn't the Bible that struck the monster, but rather a shockwave mixed with sulfur and some kind of cold, decaying aura that suddenly erupted from the demon's body!

"Ugh—!"

Constantine was struck as if by a speeding truck. He screamed and flew backward, crashing heavily onto the muddy ground seven or eight meters away. He rolled several times before coming to a stop, and the Bible in his hand flew out, its pages scattered haphazardly.

He struggled to sit up, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth, and roared in Qin Jin's direction:

"Something's wrong! Qin! This guy isn't an ordinary demon! It...it has something on it resisting divine power! This is too eerie!"

"Don't try it! This thing has absorbed the power of the five elements!" Qin Jin thought of Chen Bonian's formation:

"Who knows what it's worth now!"

As if confirming Qin Jin's words and Constantine's failure, a piercing tearing sound rang out!

The ghost money covering the demon's arms was the first to be torn apart by the violent force! A huge bone claw burning with raging sulfur flames burst forth from the paper!

The paper money from the bride's ghost money was scattered and danced in the air, and many of the ghost money had already been set ablaze with hellfire.

It suddenly changed direction and rushed towards Qin Jin, appearing in front of him in an instant—

Just then, the paper bride waved her long sleeves, and countless paper curtains rose from the ground around the demon, like countless walls, surrounding it. When its claws tore through the paper curtains, the scene before it had already changed—

The paper bride helped Qin Jin once, sending the demon away from him to a distant place.

But at that moment, Qin Jin suddenly turned around and looked behind him!

Because the moment the demon charged in, he felt an aura of rust and decay erupting from behind him!

All he could see was Alessa, who was strapped to his back. Her gray-blue eyes had turned completely black, with no whites left. A decaying power was spreading from her!

rustling...

The soil and grass that were once at his feet had all turned into rotten, rusty red. This corrosion spread outward like a plague, extinguishing all life wherever it went, leaving only desolation!

The spread was slow, but it carried death and despair, constantly expanding and deepening...

At this moment, whether it was the paper bride, Chen Xue the devil, or even Constantine, they all paused subconsciously and looked at Qin Jin and Alessa on his back!

"Alessa! Stop!"

Qin Jin abruptly turned his hand and grabbed Alessa's cold little hand with all his might. He lowered his voice, his tone unusually stern and tinged with barely perceptible panic, and growled in her ear:

"This is not the time for you to act! Stop now! You'll lose control again! Control yourself!"

Aresa's small body trembled violently on Qin Jin's back, and a beast-like growl came from her throat. The expansion of the rusty territory seemed to have slowed down, but it did not stop, and the edges were still slowly encroaching on the normal land.

"Look at me! Aresa!" Qin Jin shook her violently, forcing her to look into his bloodshot eyes:

"Get under control! Think about the consequences! We'll lose everything!"

Perhaps it was Qin Jin's roar that stimulated her remaining rationality, or perhaps the words "losing everything" touched the depths of her soul. The pure darkness in Alessa's eyes receded slowly like the tide, and the strength of her struggle gradually diminished.

Her gray-blue pupils reappeared, still cold, but at least she had regained her senses. She was breathing heavily, as if she had just finished a marathon.

As her power receded, the terrifying corrosive domain, like the receding tide, shrank back at an equally astonishing speed.

The area that had been eroded into gray-black rusted soil stopped expanding, and at the edges, the grayish rust marks could even be seen fading away like an illusion, revealing the moist but normal soil and tenacious grass underneath.

It was as if the hellish scene from before was just a brief nightmare.

Qin Jin let out a long sigh of relief, his back instantly soaked with cold sweat. Just a moment ago, he seemed to see the edge of the despairing world of Silent Hill descending upon him once again.

This sudden scene made both the Paper Bride and the Demon Chen Xue seem to realize something abruptly...
