"Ah~~~~~~"
When that strange sound resounded again, the terrified screams from the crowd suddenly intensified by several times.
The piercing screams and cries awakened all the sleeping people. At this moment, this area was completely occupied by a sinister and eerie atmosphere.
But just as everyone was desperately trying to break free or screaming in terror, Chu Feng fixed his gaze firmly on the direction from where the strange sound came.
Finally, in that dark corner, a figure appeared within Chu Feng's sight. It was a being that was two meters tall, covered in aquatic plants all over its body.
It was impossible to clearly see its appearance, but only two pairs of blood-red eyes could be seen. Although from the outside, this terrifying monster was far less terrifying than some beasts and fierce creatures, the aura it emitted was truly terrifying. A Fifth Rank Martial King, this powerful monster, was actually a Fifth Rank Martial King.
The monster moved slowly, seemingly enjoying the people's screams and fear. Until it stopped in front of a middle-aged man, it then stopped and cast a cold gaze at the man.
"Beep"
When it turned its gaze towards the man, a faint halo of light immediately appeared around the man's body, and then began to slowly rise, floating directly in front of the monster.
"Don't kill me, don't kill me. I have parents above and children below, and the entire family depends on me to hold it together. I can't die, can't die. Please show some mercy and spare me."
The man was terrified and kept begging.
"Ahh~~~~"
However, the monster neither responded nor cared. Instead, it let out a piercing roar, and then a visible suction force appeared, enveloping the man.
"Ah~~~~~"
After being enveloped by that suction force, the man immediately let out a howling sound like a tortured pig. At the same time, all the people present were frightened by this scene and their faces changed. Even Chu Feng couldn't help but frown slightly, with cold sweat dripping from his forehead.
Because, that suction force was absorbing everything of the man, from the outside to the inside. It first deprived the man of his skin, then absorbed his muscles, and then refined his meridians until the man was left with only a skeleton. Only then did the suction force disappear. But the man had already completely lost his vitality, not even having his essence left.
Although the refining process was extremely fast, the man definitely endured an indescribable pain. He died very painfully, so painfully that even martial practitioners who had experienced bloodshed and storms were frightened and turned pale, and some were even knocked unconscious by the shock.
"Ah~~~~~"
However, this was just the beginning. Just as the man's skeleton was thrown onto the ground, a woman beside him was grabbed by the monster and began to be absorbed and refined.
Finally, just like the previous man, the woman was absorbed and refined in an instant, leaving only a skeleton.
"Ah~~~~~"
Immediately after that, someone else was grabbed by the monster and refined, and in just a short period of time, dozens of people were devoured and refined by it, dying in its hands.
"Over, over. We're doomed, we're all doomed. We will all be completely refined and devoured by it."
At this moment, many people were almost broken. Finally, they knew the cruel methods of this monster. First, skinning, then shaving off flesh, and finally absorbing the essence. This was one of the most cruel tortures, just like it had a huge hatred towards humans, deliberately making the person being refined endure unimaginable pain during the refining process.
"No, no, no. I can't be refined by it. I don't want to die like this. Even if I die myself, I don't want to be refined by it."
Even worse, some of them had completely broken down and lost their will to live, choosing to commit suicide. But alas, they had already lost their strength and there was no chance for them to do so. They could only wait for the monster to devour them.
"Hey, that kid, if you don't want to die, come here quietly. I have a way to save your life."
But just then, suddenly a voice transmission entered Chu Feng's ears. Looking back, it turned out to be the old man from the Islands, a master of the third rank martial arts.
And not only him, unconsciously, that wild-looking man and the cute boy had already gathered around the old man.
Seeing that the other could transmit a voice, Chu Feng also knew that although their strength had been deprived, the ability to transmit a voice still existed. So Chu Feng hurriedly replied, "What method do you have? Please come out and let me hear it first."
"You lad should be a realm spirit master. Just answer yes or no. Yes, I can save you." The old man asked directly.
"Yes." Chu Feng nodded.
"Then hurry up and come over. Otherwise, we will all die." The old man said. Then he turned his gaze and looked at a black-haired old man over there. That old man's age should be over a hundred years old, with the cultivation level of Heavenly Martial Nine Layers, and he was wearing a blue robe of realm spirit.
Chu Feng could immediately tell that the third rank martial arts master from the Islands was transmitting a voice to that blue-robed realm spirit master. Although he didn't know what tricks he was showing off, he should have certain methods and only realm spirit masters could help him. Plus, the current situation was very urgent, so Chu Feng didn't think much and quietly moved his body, slowly approaching the three people from the Islands.
At the same time, several others also came over in a stealthy manner, without even thinking, Chu Feng knew that they were all realm spirit masters and had very strong mental power.
"Watch carefully, I have a treasure in my hand. It can break through this array, but it requires strong mental power to activate. At present, the time is tight. Although the monster is destroying and assimilating us one by one."
"But with its strength, even if it destroys one by one, it can completely consume all of us here within an hour. So we must act quickly. Don't think any more. Quickly project your mental power into this treasure. If you don't hurry up, we will all die."
The third rank martial arts master took out a small cone from his hand. This small cone seemed ordinary, but it was full of spells. Chu Feng could tell that this was indeed a treasure, but it needed to accumulate power before it could exert its power. At present, people had no strength, mental power was the only thing that could be used, so this old man called them here.
To be honest, Chu Feng didn't trust the three people from the Qixian Island. But seeing that all the people summoned here had begun to project their mental energy into that cone-shaped object, Chu Feng couldn't help but feel embarrassed to just stand by idly. After all, whether it was true or not, this was the only chance to save them at the moment.
