In an instant, Wu Wenjie and Ren Shaohua were refined into spirit essence.
It happened too quickly, catching everyone completely off guard.
Who could have imagined it? They had clearly finished surveying the island and passed Elder Sun's inspection. All that remained was to settle their contribution points, and the mission would be over. Yet at that very moment, Elder Sun suddenly struck without any reason, refining the two of them into spirit essence.
Thus fell the curtain on Senior Brother Ren, the legendary king of survival.
And Senior Brother Wu, who had spoken those ominous words earlier, ultimately met his inevitable death as well.
Looking at Senior Brother Wu's bare skeleton on the ground, Chen Yu still struggled to process what had happened. The words Senior Brother Wu had said last night echoed in his mind. After a while, he drew a deep breath and clenched his fists, his gaze growing colder as he looked at Elder Sun.
The Dao Sect!
So this was... the Dao Sect!
Having reached the Foundation Establishment Realm, Chen Yu could sense that Elder Sun was stronger than him, though only slightly.
He was now at the first layer of Foundation Establishment, which meant Elder Sun was most likely a second-layer Foundation Establishment cultivator.
Besides the gap in cultivation, Elder Sun had spent years in the Dao Sect. His cultivation manuals, martial skills, treasures, and the like all surpassed Chen Yu's.
If Chen Yu attacked now, he would probably be no match for him.
Moreover, Chen Yu knew perfectly well.
Elder Sun was not the mastermind behind all this. At most, he was an accomplice.
"Junior Brother..."
Beside him, Lü Yanyan had been frightened by Elder Sun's sudden attack. Looking at the two skeletons on the ground, she instinctively edged closer to Chen Yu.
