The stone stairs were incredibly steep and extended straight down. Under the glow of the flame emanating from Huang Xiaolong, many visible black resentful spirits and evil qi could be seen constantly swirling and spreading.
However, these resentful spirits and evil qi would dissipate instantly upon contact with the flame.
Additionally, on both sides of the stone wall, numerous paintings were hung.
The contents of these paintings were extremely bizarre, gruesome, and brutal.
Some depicted beheading, disembowelment, flaying, quartering, castration, hanging…
If an ordinary person saw these paintings, they would undoubtedly be scared out of their wits, possibly scared to death!
Because the expressions of the people being punished in these paintings were incredibly horrific, ferocious, and desperate…everything was so realistic. Looking at these paintings felt as if one was witnessing these punishments firsthand.
