Chapter 34: Shocking Appearance of Demon Souls, Brutal Massacre
At the eastern side of the secret realm, hundreds of disciples from various sects gathered at a vast palace ruin.
They gathered here, all discussing this matter.
It's strange that only people have gone in, and so far no one has come out.
Inside the ruin it was deathly silent, with not a sound escaping, sending chills down one's spine.
Nobody dared to act rashly.
"Our sect's senior brother took people inside, and still no word has come out."
"The communication talismans have even failed," a man said anxiously.
"Our senior brother said the same, telling us to wait outside to meet them, but now we can't even contact them."
"What if we also go in to take a look…?"
He probed the few people beside him, noting that this place was clearly strange, and he absolutely would not dare to enter alone.
"If you want to go, then go."
"What's there to fear? We'll all come to the graveyard to see you off."
"Look over there, it seems the people from the Holy Land have arrived."
Seeing the Holy Land's disciples made everyone feel as if they had found their backbone; even such a dragon's pool and tiger's den would need the Holy Land to take the lead.
When Shi Hao and the others arrived here, they saw that many people had gathered outside.
"Strange, why aren't they going in and just waiting here?"
"When they came, they were all eager as monkeys, but once they actually got to work they went soft?"
"I don't know; let's find someone friendly to ask."
Having said that, Wang Teng grabbed the man nearest to him.
The two exchanged friendly words, and after Wang Teng humbly sought his advice, the man was so scared he wet his trousers, wiping them while he explained everything, and only then did they learn the truth.
"Only people go in, and nobody ever comes out?"
"Brother Wang, this place is extremely ominous!"
Shi Hao frowned slightly and said.
"Hehe, I, Wang Teng, just love charging into these stimulating situations."
At that moment, Xie Mengxin of Lanyue Holy Land and Mu Fan of Tianqing Holy Land also arrived with their people.
"Great, all the people from the Three Great Holy Lands have arrived!"
"Now even a dragon's pool and tiger's den must be charged into."
They had no intention of the sage's inheritance; even if it truly existed, it wouldn't be their turn.
Our own senior brothers and sisters are inside; let's go in and see what's happening.
It would also satisfy our curiosity; maybe we could pick up some leftovers.
"Miss Xie and Brother Mu have also come?"
"Perfect, let's go in together to see what this so-called sage's inheritance is about."
Mu Fan walked over, laughing, and said: "Brother Wang, long time no see—what's your haul?"
"Not much, not much—just ten items filling my spatial ring, really not much!"
"Still, thanks to Miss Xie and Brother Mu for yielding."
This little brat Wang Teng kills people and still needs to exterminate their hearts.
"Haha, well… really not much… ah!"
Mu Fan forced out a faint smile while gritting his teeth.
In truth his back molars were about to crack—damn it, those were originally all mine!
"Hmph, cut the nonsense!"
"Let's go in and take a look."
Thus, the disciples of all sects followed the Three Great Holy Lands' people inside.
After walking a short distance, a strong smell of blood came over.
Lin Bai and Hua Qingyu both placed their hands on their swords, while Shi Hao, Wang Teng and the others also kept watch ahead.
"Junior brother, come quickly! There really is a sage's inheritance ahead."
"Junior brothers, hurry over—there's too much resources ahead for us to carry, come help!"
"Junior sisters, why are you only coming now? Hurry to senior sister's side—there are plenty of spirit stones ahead."
At that moment, a large group came forward shouting for their own junior brothers and junior sisters.
"That's my senior brother—great, we've arrived, senior brother!"
"My senior brother is also here!"
"Senior brother, don't panic—we've come to help!"
Sect disciples, upon seeing their own senior brothers and sisters, ran over to them.
Upon hearing their senior brothers say there were both resources and inheritance ahead, they became as energized as if injected with chicken blood.
"Yu'er, these people are demons—fall back quickly!"
Mu Shuixian, using her divine sense, observed that everyone ahead was covered in demonic qi.
As a supreme expert of the Great Emperor Realm, she naturally had dealt with the demon race before; this aura could not be mistaken.
Hua Qingyu, hearing this, was greatly startled and hastily pulled her senior brothers backward.
At the same time she shouted loudly: "Don't go over, they're demons!"
However, it was already too late.
"Senior brother, what are you doing?!"
"Senior sister, don't!"
Those who ran over found their senior brothers; the senior sisters coldly smiled and began slaughtering them.
The mournful wails echoed throughout the entire ruin.
"Demon!"
"Junior sister, you mean...!"
They were greatly shocked; how could there be demons in the secret realm!
Seeing this bloody scene, the people behind all ran backward.
"Don't ask, just run!"
Shi Hao and the others also followed the crowd backward; having prepared early, they ran near the front.
Just as they were about to reach the exit, suddenly a large number of demon beasts rushed out from ahead.
"Heh heh heh! My blood food!"
"Where are you guys running to?"
The leading demon beast, Gui Cha, laughed sinisterly; at his command, those demon beasts began indiscriminate slaughter.
The demon beasts behind also gave chase.
There's an ambush ahead, pursuers behind—nowhere to retreat!
"Let's fight them to the death!"
Seeing no escape, disciples of various sects picked up their weapons and began to fight the demon beasts before them.
"Ah! Save me!"
"Don't kill me!"
The wails shook the heavens!
As they fought, they discovered these demon beasts were not only highly cultivated but also fearless of death!
Most terrifying of all, the dead disciples would be possessed by the demon beasts and then rise again to slaughter everyone.
The situation had become utterly one-sided.
"Hahaha, Brother Shi, our ideals can finally be realized—today I'll enjoy a good slaughter!"
"Disciples of Dongxuan Holy Land, hear my order: follow this Holy Son to exterminate demons!"
"Kill!"
"Hahaha! Then let's go—let's see who can kill more demon beasts!"
Shi Hao laughed as he blasted the demon beast before him with a single punch.
"Who fears whom? Come on!"
"One, two, three!"
In the midst of speaking, Wang Teng instantly killed three demon beasts.
"Junior brother, junior sister, be careful."
After instructing Lin Bai and the other, Shi Hao went all-out and charged into the demon pile.
"Supreme Reincarnation Law!"
"Supreme Reincarnation Fist!"
Shi Hao was like a war god possessed; with one punch he blasted forward, and a large swath of demon beasts fell dead.
Seeing how fierce they were, the crowd moved toward the holy land.
The slaughter continued; upon seeing blood, these demon beasts became even more frenzied!
