The Source of Terror
Treasures are captivating.
At this moment, the barrier had been broken, and everyone went crazy.
That miraculous grape, regarded as a priceless treasure by everyone, must contain something extraordinary!
At that moment, a cold glint flashed in Zhan Shaoling's eyes, and he hissed, "Make your move!"
A divine talisman appeared in Zhan Chonglei's hand. He infused it with spiritual power, and it immediately shone with divine light.
The divine light descended directly upon the crowd rushing towards the Giant Vine grape vine.
"No!"
"Ah..."
"Help..."
A series of agonizing cries filled the air; Zhan Chonglei was actually slaughtering everyone!
Zhan Chonglei wielded a Deity artifact, which the crowd was completely powerless to resist. In an instant, countless people died, their bodies falling to the ground and turning into mummies, their blood disappearing without a trace.
Zhan Shaoling watched this scene with an icy expression—they had already arrived at the place of fortuitous opportunity, and these cannon fodder were of no use.
Yun Qianshan was shocked and furious, saying, "What are you doing...?"
The Zhan family's acts of slaughter are inconsistent with their status as Deity Aristocratic Clan, and he wanted to stop them.
However, before he could finish speaking, a powerful blade of light slashed towards him from behind!
Zhan Wanren made his move, wielding a divine blade and slashing down with overwhelming killing intent and immense power.
Caught off guard by the sudden attack, Yun Qianshan's expression changed drastically. He also possessed a Deity artifact, which he hurriedly activated.
However, the opponent's attack was premeditated and launched suddenly. Yun Qianshan was still blasted back dozens of steps, and a trace of blood spilled from the corner of his mouth!
"Grandpa, take your medicine quickly!"
Yun Qin had already reached Yun Qianshan's side and handed him a pill.
Yun Qianshan was about to reach out to refuse, but in an instant, a dagger suddenly shot out from Yun Qin's sleeve!
The dagger gleamed with a deep blue light, exuding an aura of divine power.
Yun Qianshan's pupils contracted, but Yun Qin was too close to him, and he was completely unprepared. At that moment, the dagger pierced straight through his chest!
Yun Qin struck Yun Qianshan hard in the chest with her palm, Yun Qianshan flying backward.
Everything happened in the blink of an eye.
"Grandfather!"
Yunxi exclaimed in surprise and instantly appeared beside her grandfather.
But Yun Qianshan's lips were purple, his breathing was disordered, and his hands were twitching.
"Zhan Bai's divine poison dagger... you..."
Yun Qianshan raised his hand, pointing at Yun Qin, his old eyes filled with disbelief!
Yun Qin... ambushed him?!
"Why..."
Yun Qianshan spoke with a heavy heart!
Yun Qin grew up with Yunxi since childhood. Although she was only an adopted daughter, the Yun family treated her like their own!
But now she...
"Why?"
Yun Qin revealed a venomous and ferocious smile:
You should ask her!
She stared at Yunxi, her eyes filled with hatred, and said:
Why did you die and then come back to life? Why do you always take away what I love? Why should I live in your shadow for the rest of my life?
"I'm going to kill you, destroy everything connected to you, kill everyone you care about, and make you suffer for the rest of your life!"
She practically yelled those last four words!
All the darkness and malice within her surged forth with those four words!
Yunxi listened to Yun Qin's words, her eyes suddenly turned cold. At that moment, a certain emotion within her was completely shattered.
Even though she knew that Yun Qin had given her the cursed jade that brought misfortune, she still felt a pang of reluctance, after all, they had been friends for many years...
But now...
"Hahaha, good, good, good!"
At this moment, Zhan Shaoling suddenly clapped his hands and burst into laughter.
He glanced around the arena; by now, the people from the other major forces who had followed him in had been slaughtered.
On the other hand, almost everyone in the Yun family was also wiped out.
Yun Yinxing was also ambushed by people arranged by the Zhan family and is now seriously injured.
The Zhan family has gained an absolute advantage on the field!
"Qin'er, you did a great job!"
Zhan Shaoling smiled, stepped forward, looked at Yunxi and the others, and said coldly:
"Whatever your schemes or plots with the beings in the Great Wilderness, they are now in my hands!"
You're finished!
Only Yunxi and the other two remained. His once elegant demeanor had completely vanished, replaced by a sinister and smug expression.
"Don't worry, I won't kill you easily until I've had my fill of playing with you three stunning beauties."
He sneered, waving his hand as he said:
"Second Uncle, go pick those grapes. It's time to end this."
He picked the grapes, killed Yun Qianshan, and kidnapped Yunxi and the others... Nothing here will be known to the outside world. He will also arrange a marriage with the Yun family. The Yun family, having lost Yun Qianshan, will be easier to control!
Everything is under my control!
Zhan Chonglei sneered and strode towards the Giant Vine.
But suddenly, the roots of the petrified Giant Vine began to tremble, and the entire earth shook in response.
Then, a gray mist emanated from the dense, thick root system. Under the pull of the gray mist, the thick old tree roots gathered and intertwined, eventually forming a human-shaped creature!
The old root twisted and transformed into a humanoid creature!
Gray mist serves as eyes, indifferent as death.
This is a Strange Being!
"What the hell is that?"
Zhan Chonglei was taken aback, but immediately roared and wielded the Deity Umbrella, blasting it towards the humanoid creature!
However, when the humanoid Deity raised its hand, a wisp of gray mist overflowed and stained the Deity umbrella.
All the sacred energy of the Deity Umbrella vanished, turning it gray and dull. Even the handle, crafted from divine gold, rotted away instantly!
"No!"
Zhan Chonglei was taken aback and hurriedly threw away the Deity Umbrella, but the gray mist had already spread to his hands!
It spread throughout the body.
"Ah--"
Zhan Chonglei let out a shrill scream.
Then, his body twisted, his life essence was instantly dissolved, and stone spots appeared on his skin!
He suddenly turned around, and there were all the living people outside.
At this moment, Zhan Chonglei's eyes were so eerie and lifeless, filled with a gray mist. He... was no longer a living person!
"What's going on?!"
Zhan Wanren was greatly surprised!
"What the hell is this thing? How could it possibly corrupt the Deity Umbrella?"
"What has tainted Zhan Chonglei? Is he even human?"
Everyone was shocked.
At that moment, behind Zhan Chonglei, the Strange Being formed from the roots of the Old Vine suddenly turned around indifferently and glanced at the dark purple grapes on the Giant Vine!
"Ah--"
A ghostly howl suddenly erupted from there, and many hidden ghosts revealed themselves!
Gui Qi's hand was already reaching for the grapes!
--This group of ghosts had been hiding nearby, waiting. When the barrier was broken and no one was paying attention, they had already arrived and were ready to take the fruit.
These ghosts are indeed very clever and good at hiding!
However, at this moment, the creature formed from the strange tree roots glanced at them, and the ghosts, including Gui Qi, were so terrified that their ghostly hair danced wildly, and they almost lost their souls and fled in panic!
Those outside who witnessed this scene were even more shocked.
"What on earth is this thing formed from tree roots? Even ghosts fear it!"
Someone spoke with a chill.
"This... this is the source of terror in the Great Wilderness, it is ominousness itself!"
At this moment, Mu Wanqing spoke, her voice trembling:
"Death awakened it, and it... only brings the withering of life; even the Deity cannot stop it!"
Upon hearing this, everyone's expressions turned utterly shocked!
The source of terror, the very essence of misfortune?
Even the Deity couldn't stop it!
Everyone was terrified...
