Wu Cheng's gaze fell on Shen Hao, which made everyone else breathe a sigh of relief.

Thankfully, it wasn't me.

But they won't be happy either, because sooner or later it will be their turn.

It's only a matter of time.

They are now like lambs in a slaughterhouse, waiting for the butcher's knife to fall on them.

All of this is already destined, and nothing can change it.

"It's you! Die!" Wu Cheng's voice was filled with a kind of madness and excitement.

The sound sent a chill down everyone's spine.

Hearing Wu Cheng's frantic voice, Shen Hao knew that he had no other choice now.

He could no longer stand idly by or watch the spectacle, for he had become Wu Cheng's target.

He's the next one to die.

He didn't want to take action, but Wu Cheng approached him, so he had no choice but to.

The only thing to blame is Wu Cheng's incredibly bad luck.

With the newly acquired Fear Points, Shen Hao now has a total of 11,300 Fear Points.

He can now use the Demon Eye to Gaze into Death.

At this moment, Wu Cheng was not particularly powerful; the truly formidable force was the crimson giant Possession him.

That was a powerful monster from the Netherworld, with extraordinary strength.

But the ability to Gaze into Death can kill the Bloodied Sovereign's clone, and it can certainly kill Possession Crimson Giant possessing Wu Cheng.

Once that crimson giant is killed, Wu Cheng will be practically useless.

They could easily tear Wu Cheng into dozens of pieces with their combined strength.

But this is a powerful move, and it consumes too much energy, so he's a little reluctant to use it.

It doesn't feel worth spending all your savings to kill such a thing.

Moreover, it hasn't come to that point yet; he still has other options.

Soulfire!

He wasn't sure if the Soulfire could kill Possession crimson giant possessing Wu Cheng.

However, it shouldn't be a big problem. If it doesn't work the first time, try it twice.

If the fire is big enough, it can burn anything.

Moreover, this is a new ability he just acquired and hasn't actually used yet; now it's time to test it out.

At this moment, everyone's eyes were focused on Shen Hao, because they knew that this man was about to die.

And they will face the same fate next.

Thinking of this, they couldn't help but feel a sense of desolation, a feeling of shared sorrow.

They were speculating: now that Shen Hao was dead, who would be next?

Shen Hao blinked his left eye, a barely perceptible blood-red light flashing in it. Then, a ghostly green flame appeared in his pupil.

No one noticed this subtle change, because these people were in a state of extreme fear and had no mind to observe so carefully.

Wu Cheng pointed at Shen Hao, and everyone's faces showed horror. They didn't want to look, but it was hard for them not to.

They hoped for a miracle, but they also knew very well that a miracle was impossible.

No one can save them; death will come upon everyone.

Despair filled everyone's hearts.

However, what they expected did not happen; Shen Hao was standing there perfectly fine.

Just as everyone was wondering what was going on, they heard Wu Cheng let out a scream.

Everyone rushed over and saw Wu Cheng clutching his chest, his face contorted in agony, seemingly in great pain.

At this moment, even the phantom of the crimson giant Possession him became somewhat blurry.

"What's wrong? Could a miracle really be happening?"

Everyone was filled with immense horror, yet also a glimmer of joy; they seemed to have glimpsed a tiny hope.

"Ah--"

Wu Cheng let out a painful roar.

His eyes were filled with madness and pain, his hands flailing wildly in the air, and powerful energy was constantly being released from his body.

Many marks were left on the building behind them, and several unlucky people were hit by the blood giant's power, their bodies torn to pieces.

Suddenly, eerie green flames erupted from Wu Cheng's body, engulfing him and the blood-red giant.

The flames grew stronger and stronger, and Wu Cheng's roars became more and more intense.

Even the blood-red giant let out a mournful cry amidst the flames.

Everyone watched in shock.

A miracle, it really was a miracle, happened.

It happened when they were at their most desperate.

No one doubted that Shen Hao was behind all of this.

In their eyes, Shen Hao did nothing; he didn't even lift a finger.

Furthermore, they were all immersed in the joy of the miracle and didn't think too much about it.

They can now sense that the power suppressing them within the barrier is gradually weakening.

As long as the fire continues to burn, they will soon be free.

How could one not be excited when a seemingly hopeless situation suddenly turns into a chance for survival?

But their joy was short-lived; the flames seemed to be affected by some force, gradually concentrating on the blood giant's arm.

Suddenly, the blood-red giant's arm seemed to be severed by something and fell to the ground.

The flames quickly burned the arm on the ground to ashes, but the flames gradually weakened and eventually went out completely.

The figure of the crimson giant became clear again.

The crimson giant's domain was stabilized, and an even stronger killing intent spread within it, giving everyone an unprecedented sense of oppression.

The power unleashed by the crimson giant was even greater.

The joy in their hearts turned to ashes at that moment, vanishing completely.

Despair and fear returned to my heart.

Wu Cheng's face became extremely ferocious, his eyes filled with murderous intent, and the blood-red giant Possession him had the same expression.

Wounded beasts are the most terrifying.

Wu Cheng is now like a wounded beast, his eyes filled only with a frenzied killing intent.

"Die, all of you! Die, you ants!" Wu Cheng roared furiously.

He has completely lost his rationality; all that remains is the desire to kill.

The murderous intent sent chills down everyone's spines.

Even if a miracle were to occur, it wouldn't save them; they would still die here in the end.

But the miracle will not happen again.

A miracle is a miracle precisely because it cannot be replicated.

They were wrong; a miracle happened again.

This time, an even more intense flame erupted from Wu Cheng's body.

Before the crimson giant could make a move, the flames completely engulfed them.

"Ah--"

Wu Cheng let out another painful roar.

At that moment, a hint of fear appeared in the blood-red giant's eyes.

He sensed a familiar presence emanating from the flames.

It was an ancient and powerful, yet incredibly terrifying being!

Unexpectedly, even after arriving here, he could not escape this calamity.

The figure of the crimson giant grew dimmer, while the flames intensified.

The excruciating pain of his soul being burned completely broke him, and his body melted away as quickly as a candle.

The domain created by the crimson giant began to falter, and everyone felt the pressure on them weaken.

Hope has finally appeared.
