The Dou Sheng Skeleton Revives
Although the retraction was fast enough, the Space Cutting Power was obviously even faster. Half of the Black Heavenly Venerate's hand was directly severed and fell onto the Dou Sheng Skeleton.
Black Heavenly Venerate hurriedly tapped his arm a few times, took out a pill, and quickly swallowed it.
When White Heavenly Venerate saw Black Heavenly Venerate's hands and the severed limbs and blood scattered on the skeleton, an extremely uneasy feeling welled up in his heart.
Just then, White Heavenly Venerate noticed that the blood on the skeleton was disappearing at an extremely fast speed, and he sensed a life force emerging on this skeleton that had been dead for an unknown period of time.
"Damn it, Old Hei, run!!"
As expected of White Heavenly Venerate, who has been best friends with Black Heavenly Venerate for many years, he didn't forget to take Black Heavenly Venerate, who was looking at him with suspicion, with him when he ran away.
He quickly used his movement technique, grabbed the Black Heavenly Venerate by the back of the neck, and pulled him away.
Just as he grabbed the Black Heavenly Venerate, the Jade White Skeleton sitting cross-legged on the stone seat trembled slightly, and then, two faint blood-red hues flickered and emerged from the empty skull.
"Ah!!"
As the crimson light appeared, the Dou Sheng Skeleton slowly raised its head, and a deafening roar, like thunderclaps, suddenly burst forth from its mouth!
The terrifying roar instantly materialized into sound waves, sweeping outwards like a storm from the stone seat.
The sound waves instantly caught up with the Black Heavenly Venerate and the White Heavenly Venerate, who were closest to him.
Bang!
The invisible sound waves struck the Black White Heavenly Venerate directly, instantly sending them flying outwards with muffled groans, clearly indicating they were injured.
The sound waves, forming a circle, spread outwards again. Everyone in the Main Hall noticed this, but the sound waves were extremely fast. Many people closer to the center were turned into blood mist by the shockwave before they could react. Even Dou Zun and the Human Puppet were not spared.
The center of the entire hall was filled with a thick mist of blood, like blood rain, staining the ground red.
Seeing this, many people in the hall fled for their lives like stray dogs, including the Nine Nether Earth Python and the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan.
Xiao Yan also flashed, bringing Heavenly Flame Venerable with him, and instantly arrived above the Sky Swallowing Python's head, beside Xiao Tian.
The sound wave range wasn't particularly large; it mainly reached the center of the Main Hall, and much of its power had been consumed. By the time the sound wave reached Xiao Tian and the others, its power had diminished considerably. The Sky Swallowing Python also opened its mouth and let out a low roar, instantly shattering the sound wave.
Seeing this, Xiao Yan couldn't help but think to himself, no wonder his Tian Ge was staying here. Obviously, no matter what kind of attack was launched, it wouldn't affect him, and no one would be willing to leave the central circle to cause trouble.
After the sonic attack in the Main Hall dissipated, many people in the hall were covered in dust, blood, and cold sweat.
Under this sonic wave, even three Dou Zun died, and countless Dou Emperor, Dou Zong and below also perished. Even the originally somewhat crowded main hall became much more spacious after this cleansing.
"Black Old Ghost, what have you done?" Yao Feng asked angrily, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth, his eyes blazing with fury as he looked at the Black Heavenly Venerate who had escaped but whose aura was weak.
Upon hearing Yao Feng's question, everyone present glared angrily at the Soul Hall group. Many people could clearly see that it was because of Black Heavenly Venerate that this sound wave appeared for some unknown reason, and even his palm was severed.
The Soul Hall's battle circle was originally on the outer perimeter, but under some unknown influence, it gradually moved closer to the center.
In this sonic attack, the people of the Soul Hall were the first to be hit. Apart from the two Venerable Elder and the Black White Heavenly Venerate, all the other Protector were killed or injured.
Other forces also suffered losses, with the Earth Nether Python and the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan being the two that suffered the greatest losses besides the Soul Hall.
Burning Flame Valley also lost two Elder.
"I was merely admiring the Dou Sheng Skeleton, but for some reason, these remains, fallen countless years ago, suddenly erupted, killing several powerful figures from my Soul Hall, including myself..."
Black Heavenly Venerate took a deep breath, enduring the pain in his hand, and said in a deep voice.
The Soul Hall now has only four members left, and all of them are seriously injured. If they are surrounded and attacked, they will surely die.
"Admiration? Your admiration means reaching out to grab the skeleton? What? You want to touch it? Do you have some kind of bone fetish? If it weren't for your reckless actions, causing your blood to fall on the skeleton, how could it have been carefully preserved, resulting in such a great loss for everyone?"
Xiao Yan looked at Black Heavenly Venerate, who was trying to shirk responsibility, and sneered.
"You—" Upon hearing Xiao Yan's words, Black Heavenly Venerate's face instantly turned ashen, wishing he could grind Xiao Yan to dust. "This matter is indeed my responsibility, but the most urgent task is to resolve this skeleton issue. The Dou Sheng Skeleton should be a trace of the will left behind by this powerful figure before his death, and it is not difficult to deal with. As long as we join forces, we can definitely suppress it."
"Even a wisp of thought is so terrifying. If that sound wave were to come again, I'm afraid not many of us here would survive." Tang Zhen's face was ashen.
"Yeah, yeah, I think we'd better leave quickly. Once it fully recovers, there will be no chance to escape, and we won't even know how we died." Someone whispered in the crowd, their voice filled with undisguised fear. That power was truly terrifying.
Many people near the door scrambled and crawled out of the gate.
"Of course we can join forces, but your Soul Hall must take the lead first. We'll assist from the sidelines. If you don't agree, we'll wipe you out first." Huang Xuan of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan stepped forward, his gaze turning gloomy as he looked at White Heavenly Venerate of the Soul Hall.
"Alright." White Heavenly Venerate stopped Black Heavenly Venerate, his eyes flickering for a moment before he nodded. "However, we're all in the same boat now. We need to put aside our past grievances, otherwise, if this boat capsizes, we'll all be stuck here."
"Hmph, we know without you saying it. Everyone, hurry up and heal your injuries. Stop holding back and don't even think about running away. This will lock onto all of us, and we'll be picked off one by one and die even faster." The leader of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan snorted coldly. This time, they had also lost quite a few of their clansmen.
"Crunch..."
Just as the crowd was in an uproar, a faint sound of bones twisting suddenly came from the blood-mist-filled hall. At this sound, all the commotion immediately subsided, and horrified gazes were fixed on the center of the blood-mist-filled hall. Fear spread even more intensely in that instant.
