Looking toward the place reeking of blood, he saw a "small mountain" piled entirely from monster corpses. Even from far away, he could feel the dense resentment in the air... Virtually none of those bodies were intact. They had either been torn to pieces or smashed apart by some overwhelming external force, their flesh and bones separated—and there were even stranger ones.
Those strange bodies were more or less intact, but crimson flowers bloomed all over them. The fist-sized blossoms possessed extraordinarily vigorous roots, which pierced through the monsters' skin like blood vessels and hung exposed in the air, continuing to split apart as they drew in the blood flowing from the monsters.

The next instant, dazzling lightning tore through the night and completely engulfed the area.
