It was at this moment... that the Soul Douluo Spirit Empire who was closest to the edge of the battlefield was Black Iron Heavy Shield. At this moment, he was kneeling on one knee with his back to the forest, using a piece of clean cloth to clumsily try to bandage a wound on his left arm that was opened by a ground thorn.
That Soul Douluo only felt that the bandaging movement was slightly stagnant, as if his hands and feet were not obeying the command, the scenery in front of him seemed to be blurred for a moment, his ears were buzzing, and then, an indescribable chill spread from his ankles to his whole body in an instant!
His eyes widened suddenly, and he wanted to scream and struggle, but found that he could not even move a finger! His throat seemed to be strangled by an invisible cold hand, and he could not make any sound!
He rolled his eyes in horror and saw that his exposed skin was losing color at a speed visible to the naked eye, as if all the vitality was being wildly extracted by some invisible thing! He wanted to activate Soul Power, and wanted to inspire Spirit Empire, but Soul Power was like a stone, with no response, as if the power he had worked hard to cultivate for decades completely betrayed him at this moment and disappeared without a trace.
In just one breath, it turned into a thin pile of ashes, which fell swiftly. Even the tough cloth in his hand and the clothes on his body were not spared. There was no earth-shattering Soul Power explosion, no tragic and painful wails, and it did not even cause any obvious energy fluctuations.
A battle-hardened Soul Power with a level 83 defense system Soul Douluo was quietly wiped from the world as if it had never existed. After "devouring" this Soul Douluo, it continued to move forward without stopping, like a tide of shadows rushing to the next target.
Another one is leaning against a piece of burnt black Rock, and is adjusting his breath with his eyes closed, trying to restore Soul Power's Agility Attack System Soul Douluo. This Spirit Empire of Soul Douluo is Shadow Leopard. He has an extraordinary keen perception of shadows and dangers. The moment he was about to touch his shadow, his closed eyes suddenly opened and an indescribable extreme chill rushed to the top of his head as if he was locked by a natural enemy!
"Danger!!" He wanted to warn sternly, but his voice was stuck in his throat, and he only made a short breath. He wanted to activate Soul Skill and blend into the shadows to escape. This was his best and most reliable way to save his life.
But the next moment he was horrified to find that there was not much Soul Power left in his body, pouring out uncontrollably and crazily like a flood that was opening, rushing towards the darkness spreading from his own shadow!
He can even clearly "feel" that he has been absorbed not only by Soul Power but also his vitality, his consciousness, and everything about him!
He wanted to turn his head and look in the direction of Zhao Wuji, wanting to remind his companions, but his neck was as stiff as a rusty iron block. In his last "sight", he only saw the darkness like a living thing, which had spread to the feet of Control System Soul Douluo behind him who was still handling Earth Dragon Lizard's body...
It is like the most skilled assassin on the edge of the battlefield, launching a cold and efficient "harvest" at the moment when everyone is most relaxed and tired. Its goal is clear - to first eliminate those Soul Douluo on the periphery that consume a lot of money and have relatively low vigilance.
The third... the fourth...
The two Soul Douluo who were a little closer and were bandaging each other's wounds were touched by the darkness almost at the same time. One was the Control System of Thorn Demon Vine, and the other was Agility Attack System of Gale Falcon. They didn't even have time to react, but their bodies stiffened slightly, and the look in their eyes quickly dimmed, and then weathered and dissipated like sand sculptures, leaving only a small handful of inconspicuous ashes on the ground, which were quickly covered by the dust raised by the aftermath of the battle.
Until the fifth Soul Douluo - Control System of Gravity Domain, when he closed his eyes and adjusted his breath, he suddenly felt a "hollow" feeling coming from the ground beneath him that could suck away the soul. He suddenly opened his eyes and saw the terrifying scene of Soul Douluo's body not far away melting and dissipating like a wax statue!
"Enemy attack!!!" A shrill scream that changed its tone finally burst out from his throat, breaking the brief silence of the battlefield.
But this scream also became the last sound he left in this world.
The scream was like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, waking everyone up instantly!
"Who?!" Feng Xiaotian and Huo Wushuang were the quickest to respond. Almost as soon as the scream sounded, the two of them jumped up like an electric shock and completed Martial Soul Possession in an instant!
The cyan wings behind Feng Xiaotian spread out, the wind roared around him, and a cyan wind blade condensed in his hand, and his sharp eyes swept towards the direction of the scream like lightning.
Huo Wushuang's body surface ignited with red flames, dragon scales loomed, and a fiery breath burst out.
However, all they saw was the empty ground and a few inconspicuous, slightly darker ash marks on the ground.
The screaming companion, along with four other nearby companions, just disappeared out of thin air! There was no trace of the battle, no energy left, as if they had never existed there!
A chill instantly shot from the tail vertebrae of Feng Xiaotian and Huo Wushuang to the top of their heads! What kind of method is this?!
The remaining Soul Douluos were also awakened and stood up one after another. Soul Rings lit up and looked around in confusion. When they found that their five companions disappeared out of thin air, the color on their faces suddenly faded, and their eyes were filled with unbelievable horror.
"What's going on?! Where are Old Liu and the others?!" a defense type Soul Douluo roared, the light of Black Iron Heavy Shield in his hand flickering on and off, showing the extreme shock in his heart.
"Be careful underground! There's something weird!" Soul Douluo, another auxiliary system member, screamed in horror and subconsciously stepped back.
Just then--
"Uh-huh--!"
There was another short scream, coming from the Control System Soul Douluo who was a little further away and had released Ice Chain before. Everyone turned their heads in horror, and saw that the shadow under his feet seemed to be alive. His Soul Power light quickly dimmed like a candle in the wind. In just one breath, the whole person disappeared, leaving only a scream that stopped suddenly and echoed in the mist.
The sixth one!
"Asshole! Get out of here!" Huo Wushuang roared with his eyes splitting, and without hesitation, he sprayed out a blazing Flame Dragon Breath! crimson flame at the shadow area that had swallowed up his companions. The ground was instantly covered, the scorched earth smoked, and Rock melted, but the dark shadow receded like a tide the moment the flames approached, blending into the shadows farther away that were not affected by the flames, and disappeared.
"What the hell?!" Huo Wushuang was shocked and angry.
"Is it... the shadow? Devouring us?" Feng Xiaotian's face was ashen. He just sensed and probed, but he only "saw" a darkness that could absorb all senses and flashed away in that area at an alarming speed!
"Protect Teacher Zhao!" Feng Xiaotian shouted sharply, making the most correct judgment in an instant. No matter what came, the opponent's target was obviously all of them, and Zhao Wuji, who was absorbing Soul Ring and was defenseless, was undoubtedly the most vulnerable and important target!
He and Huo Wushuang together with the remaining three Soul Douluo instantly retracted their formation and sat cross-legged, seemingly unaware of the drastic changes around them. They were at the most critical moment to absorb Soul Ring. Zhao Wuji, firmly protected in the center, several people back to back Soul Power fully opened Soul Ring The light came on in the dimness, nervously scanning every inch of the land and every shadow around it.
However, the darkness seemed to have wisdom. In the center of the battlefield where the six Soul Douluos were swallowed up, his own shadow suddenly twisted and squirmed under Zhao Wuji!
