Chapter 990: Covered in Slaughter, There is Karma
In the Land of the Lost!
At this moment, Lachlan stood there with his eyes closed, his entire body wrapped in karmic fire.
The resentment within the headless Vermilion Bird Divine Ancestor controlled the “Lost Dream” in his mind.
This lingering resentment was filled with intense anger and bitterness.
It was the frustration of a failed conspiracy!
Using the Lost Dream, it stirred up all of Lachlan’s inner demons.
Everything Lachlan saw in the Lost Dream was deeply etched in his memory.
Such deeply ingrained memories, once twisted and shattered, would cause an ordinary person’s will to collapse.
If Lachlan’s will had collapsed, his spirit would have shattered, and his soul would have been devoured or controlled by the lingering resentment of the headless Vermilion Bird Divine Ancestor.
However, what the lingering resentment of the Vermilion Bird Divine Ancestor did not expect was that Lachlan remained steadfast in the face of his inner demons.
When confronted with his parents, twisted into hideous ghosts, he chose to embrace them calmly.
When faced with his daughter falling into an abyss, his love for her was so unwavering that he jumped after her without hesitation.
When faced with Miranda turned into a demon, his stance was crystal clear!
In the Lost Dream, Lachlan would feel sorrow, madness, and heartbreak.
However, his true self never wavered.
He never lost himself!
At this moment, even though Lachlan’s consciousness was still trapped in the Lost Dream, his will remained as strong as iron.
Thud! Thud! Thud…
One by one, the vengeful spirits of those he had killed were destroyed by his fists.
“Come on!”
“I killed you once, I can kill you a second time!”
Lachlan’s voice was cold and merciless, his gaze indifferent and resolute.
“Lachlan, I am Miranda’s second uncle. Don’t you feel guilty for causing my death?”
“Die!”
The vengeful spirit of Romeo Lowe lunged at Lachlan with bared fangs and claws.
Lachlan snorted coldly, “You brought this upon yourself! You caused a great disaster and involved Miranda’s family. You deserved to die!
Without Miranda, who would know who you are?
I don’t regret causing your death!”
Thud!
With a punch, the vengeful spirit of Romeo Lowe dissipated into ashes.
“Lachlan, you are so cruel! My son and I both died at your hands.
You are covered in sins, only death can atone for them!
Stop struggling, this is your karma!”
Arlo Hernandez and his son Ollie Hernandez charged at him with bared fangs and claws.
Lachlan’s expression remained unchanged, his tone icy, “In the Green-Blue Tournament, you Arlo Hernandez tried to kill me multiple times. Should I wait for you to kill me instead?
Your son was no good, and neither were you as a father.
Your son deserved to die, and you even brought a coffin to the Lowe family.
If I had arrived a moment later that day, my father-in-law, mother-in-law, brother-in-law, and everyone in the Lowe family and Graham family would have fallen to your hands.
You and your son bullied others, your deaths are a blessing to others!
Die!”
With both fists striking out, Arlo Hernandez and his son Ollie Hernandez vanished together.
“Lachlan, we had no enmity. Why did you kill me?
You are so cruel! So cruel…”
At this moment, a contestant who had died at Lachlan’s hands in the Mirror of Trials charged at him with a ferocious face.
“In the path of cultivation, it’s survival of the fittest. Since you chose to participate in the Seed of the Star Path selection tournament, you must bear such consequences.
I was stronger than you, so I killed you. If you were stronger than me, you would have killed me too!
Since you can’t accept defeat and dare to come back as a vengeful spirit, I’ll send you off again!”
As Lachlan spoke, he punched out again, destroying the contestant’s vengeful spirit.
In fact, all these countless vengeful spirits were manifestations of Lachlan’s buried “weakness.”
Though he appeared decisive in killing, he was not truly a desert madman.
Whenever he thought about how his hands were stained with blood and lives, Lachlan had felt guilt, confusion, and regret.
Thus, in the Lost Dream appeared this trial of countless vengeful spirits seeking revenge.Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
If Lachlan’s will had been weak, he would have been torn apart by these spirits, representing the collapse of his will and the scattering of his soul.
However, at this moment, Lachlan’s will grew even stronger.
The weakness that once existed in his heart completely vanished.
His heart was as firm as iron!
“Come on!”
“All of you come on!”
“I killed you, you chose your own path to death!”
“I am not a good person. Weakness towards enemies is cruelty towards myself and those around me.”
“I am Lachlan! I do not believe in good or evil, I do not worship gods or Buddhas. I only believe in karma!”
Lachlan’s voice was powerful and filled with killing intent.
So what if I bear sins?
I have a clear conscience!
Covered in slaughter, there is karma!
Buzz!
As each vengeful spirit was destroyed, it was as if each of Lachlan’s inner demons was being eradicated one by one.
At this moment, Lachlan was essentially an embodiment of his own will.
He felt himself growing stronger and stronger, representing an increasingly firm will and a more powerful soul.
Accompanied by a strange fluctuation, Lachlan felt as if his soul had broken through some barrier.
Whoosh!
In the next second, Lachlan’s figure in the Lost Dream suddenly enlarged into a towering giant.
With a wave of his hand, countless vengeful spirits formed from karmic fire turned to ashes.
They became nourishment for his soul!
Simultaneously, in the outside world, Lachlan suddenly opened his eyes.
His eyes emitted two beams of light as solid as substance.
These were beams formed from spiritual power!
The two beams were almost tangible, nearly material objects.
His spiritual power had transitioned from mere external projection to “materialization.”
At this moment, Lachlan had never felt his once elusive soul so clear and comprehensible.
His soul realm had broken through!
He had stepped into the materialization realm.
