Nine Nether Heavenly Emperor-Chapter 1622 - 1607: Land of the Skull
"Ah!"
The woman’s head, struggling more and more violently in Shi Feng’s hand, was utterly unable to break free and issued an incomparably mournful scream toward the sky.
Under this scream, an incredibly fierce Black Evil whirlwind rose, even Shi Feng’s body was immediately swallowed by it.
"Ah! Hurry! Retreat!"
The people of the Red Sun Sect saw this and immediately flashed, rapidly retreating, as the Black Evil whirlwind swept forward with seemingly world-destroying force in their eyes.
"Hmph! You dare to burn your Lifebound Essence to harm me! Want to perish together with me, just relying on you!" But just at this moment, a cold voice echoed.
And just as that cold voice fell, the Black Evil whirlwind suddenly collapsed and vanished without a trace in the blink of an eye.
A young figure dressed in white reappeared before the Red Sun Sect, standing proudly atop the more devastated ruins.
People saw that under the fierce whirlwind, this person appeared entirely unscathed, even his spotless white robe remained untainted.
The Red Sun Sect members had just survived a deadly escape while this person seemed as if nothing had happened at all.
However, the woman’s head he originally held had exploded, looking even more disgusting and horrifying.
He casually tossed it, throwing the woman’s head into the ruins like garbage.
When Shi Feng looked at the five people of the Red Sun Sect again, they immediately knew what to do, turned back around, and continued to act as cannon fodder, leading the way.
Although Ruo Qingxuan had damaged the Heavenly Star Compass and felt heartache, he had no choice but to move forward.
At this moment, Ruo Qingxuan felt immense regret in his heart, blaming himself for choosing this ruthless person as cannon fodder from so many dying Martial Artists in the Death Forbidden Land!
Now, not only was the Heavenly Star Compass damaged, but his very life could also be buried in this Fierce Land at any moment!
However, when they first entered the Death Forbidden Land, they indeed saw many Martial Artists, but ever since encountering this ruthless person and reaching here, they hadn’t seen any other living beings.
...
Shi Feng and the group cautiously continued walking, even though the strange calls echoed more frequently, and the environment became more sinister and terrifying, with increasingly low temperatures, they didn’t encounter anything along the way.
Although nothing appeared, everyone remained tense, as if something could emerge at any moment.
And those two women were still in Shi Feng’s Blood Stone Stele.
The two women had not fully recovered, and Shi Feng wanted to release them once they were fully restored.
"Crack!" At this moment, a crisp sound suddenly came from under the foot of the leading Red Sun Sect disciple, breaking the silent and oppressive atmosphere.
Everyone immediately lowered their heads to look at his feet.
They saw that the disciple had stepped on a skull! It looked like a sheep’s head-shaped skull!
And right in front of him, the ground was filled with densely packed skulls of various bizarre shapes, stretching into the thick fog, shrouded in mist.
From the density, it was clear that the skulls hidden in the fog ahead were probably not few!
"This..."
"This..."
Seeing so many bizarre skulls at once made the Red Sun Sect’s people’s scalps tingle.
So many unknown creatures died here, leaving only skulls; danger surely lies ahead!
Seeing so many skulls, who would dare take another step forward at this moment?
Even the Red Sun Sect disciple who had just stepped on a skull instantly drew back his foot and retreated.
"Ahead, we truly cannot continue!" This was when Ruo Qingxuan turned his head, face full of distress, pleading with Shi Feng.
The tone was like begging Shi Feng.
When Ruo Qingxuan spoke, the other disciples quickly said, "Obviously, living beings entering this Fierce Land ahead died here, leaving only these skulls! If we continue, we will end up the same!"
"This time, if you want me to go ahead, just kill me already. Anyway, it’s death, and I don’t want to die in fear in that dark unknown terror."
Hearing their voices, Shi Feng stepped forward, scanning the array of dense, oddly shaped skulls with Soul Power.
From these various-shaped skulls, several races had indeed perished here, including a few that were Human Clan skulls.
Judging from the traces on these skulls, quite some time had passed.
"What on earth lies ahead?" At this moment, Shi Feng murmured, his brows furrowing in contemplation.
After a short while, Shi Feng returned to reality, listening to the continuous clamoring around him, and spoke, "Alright, your role as cannon fodder ends here."
Upon hearing this, the Red Sun Sect members were overjoyed, one exclaimed, "Really?"
But one quickly realized something and said, panicked, "You... you wouldn’t think we’ve outlived our usefulness... and want to kill us just like that?"
A single word awakened the dreamer, and as the others heard it, they immediately reacted, retreating with vigilance and staring at the ruthless person with full alertness.
This heartless, ruthless person, with such ruthlessness, what wouldn’t he do!
Hearing their words and seeing their cautious expressions, Shi Feng sneered disdainfully, saying, "Usefulness? Along the way, do you think you had any usefulness at all?"
"This..."
Shi Feng’s words fell, leaving the Red Sun Sect five with no response, seemingly accepting his words.
Followed by Ruo Qingxuan, who seriously cupped his fists to Shi Feng and said, "I hope you clarify your intentions, sir. Are you releasing us or planning to kill us?"
Now, they really had no idea what this ruthless person intended for them.
Kill? Or release?
Listening to Ruo Qingxuan’s words, Shi Feng maintained his disdainful smile and said, "If I wanted to kill you, would I be saying this much nonsense?"
"So... that means..."
Upon hearing Shi Feng’s words, the Red Sun Sect disciple’s eyes widened with joy.
Each of them felt like a great amnesty!
This ruthless person, saying such words, meant he truly intended to let them go!
Just as he implied, if he wanted to kill them, he would have done so already, without saying so much!
"Thank you, sir! Thank you, sir!" At this moment, Ruo Qingxuan hurriedly bowed to Shi Feng in gratitude.
"Thank you!"
"Thank you!"
"Thank you for sparing us!"
