Inside the Prison Suppression!
Su Yu and his companion walked silently, one after the other, across the desolate land shrouded in gray fog.
According to the markings on that blood-red map, they had deviated from the main road and entered an area marked " Wailing Ruins ".
As its name suggests, this is the ruins of a small town.
Collapsed stone walls, weathered beams, and hollow doors and windows, under the eternal gray fog, resemble silent skeletons. In the air, besides the chaotic atmosphere, there is also a faint sense of decay and resentment.
Luo Yuan leaned on her spear and followed three steps behind Su Yu. This distance gave her a sense of security without angering the man who never showed his emotions.
She watched Su Yu's retreating figure, her heart still churning with turmoil.
Throughout the journey, Su Yu didn't ask her anything about her injuries, nor did he show any intention of slowing down. She could only grit her teeth and activate her secret technique to forcibly suppress her injuries and keep up.
This feeling of being completely dominated made her, the granddaughter of the General of Zhennan, feel incredibly humiliated, but reason told her that this was the only way to survive.
Just as the two were about to cross the square in the center of the ruins.
A faint, almost imperceptible cry of a baby suddenly echoed in both of their minds.
The cries were shrill and piercing, filled with endless resentment and malice, like poisoned needles stabbing directly into the very source of the soul!
"Well!"
Luo Yuan's body stiffened abruptly. Her pale face, already pale from blood loss, instantly lost all color. Veins bulged on her forehead, and her hand holding the spear trembled violently. It felt as if a red-hot iron had been plunged into her mind, and the intense pain nearly made her faint on the spot.
She primarily Body Refinement, and her soul was her weakness. Under this sudden and bizarre attack, she was completely powerless to resist!
However, Su Yu, who was walking in front, only paused slightly.
"A soul attack? Targeting weaknesses, that's impressive."
A thought flashed through his mind.
The sound wave, powerful enough to shatter the soul of Heaven Realm Second Level martial artist, vanished the moment it entered his sea of consciousness, like a mud ox sinking into the sea.
In the center of his mind, the nine-story purple-gold Prison-Suppressing Platform trembled slightly, instantly suppressing and obliterating all negative energy without even causing a ripple.
Su Yu turned around and glanced at the swaying Luo Yuan.
"This woman is still useful."
He made no unnecessary movements, but simply extended a wisp of divine power over her, forming an invisible barrier that protected Luo Yuan within it.
Luo Yuan felt the tearing pain in her head suddenly disappear, replaced by a gentle yet domineering aura that completely shut out all the strange sound waves.
She was panting heavily, and her gaze towards Su Yu was filled with shock mixed with deep awe.
Su Yu ignored her. He slowly raised his eyes, his chaotic eyes piercing through layers of gray mist, precisely locking onto a half-collapsed clock tower deep within the ruins.
"Get out here."
His voice wasn't loud, but it carried an undeniable will.
At the same time, his divine sense, carrying a trace of nascent Dragon Might, was like an invisible divine spear from the heavens, fiercely piercing towards the direction of the bell tower!
"Ah--!"
The next instant, a shrill, inhuman scream erupted from inside the bell tower!
The howl was filled with pain and rage.
Immediately afterwards, a semi-transparent, roughly three-foot-tall phantom of an infant staggered out of the clock tower.
Its features were distorted, and its eye sockets, devoid of pupils, contained two pure black vortexes, filled with resentment and hunger. Its body was ethereal and unreal, shrouded in dense black energy, a product of the Chaos Qi and endless resentment of this place.
Soul-Crying Infant!
In Luo Yuan's mind, the records of this strange existence in her ancestors' notes flashed by.
They have no physical form, are immune to most physical and energy attacks, feed on the souls of living beings, and are extremely difficult to deal with. Once locked on by their cries, it will fight to the death!
"Ghosts? No, more like a distorted form resulting from the combination of resentment and the Chaos Qi of this place."
Su Yu stared calmly at the illusory figure.
"Since it's a soul, ordinary methods won't be effective."
"Then let's try this."
The Soul-Crying Infant steadied itself in mid-air, its two black hole-like eyes fixed on Su Yu. It could sense that this was the person who had just severely damaged its essence.
It opened its mouth, and a cry ten times louder than before transformed into a visible black sonic wave that swept over once more!
Luo Yuan's expression changed again, and she subconsciously tried to back away.
However, Su Yu stood still, neither dodging nor avoiding.
He slowly raised his right hand, his index finger pointing towards the desolate sky shrouded in gray mist.
It seemed to be guiding something.
He parted his thin lips slightly and uttered a cold and authoritative word.
"Fall."
boom--!!!
The moment the words left his mouth, the world changed color!
The originally slowly flowing gray-white sky seemed to have been violently torn apart by an invisible hand!
One after another, jagged void rifts appeared out of nowhere, followed by two completely different types of lightning, dark blue and pale white, surging out of the rifts like a bursting dam!
Hundreds of millions of lightning chains crisscrossed, instantly transforming a ten-mile radius into a desolate area of thunder!
Each lightning chain is engraved with the ancient and mysterious ancient pattern of the word "tribulation", exuding the purest aura of destruction!
Half-Step Heaven Realm Spirit Refinement Martial Art: Myriad Tribulations Thunder Prison!
The black sonic wave that had just reached halfway through its journey melted and purified instantly upon contact with the Thunder Prison Domain, just like ice and snow exposed to sunlight, without even causing a ripple.
"Ah--!!!"
The Soul-Crying Infant let out a terrified scream, instinctively sensing that this world of thunder was its natural nemesis!
It turned around and tried to escape back to the clock tower.
But it was too late.
Su Yu's eyes were indifferent as he gently pressed down with his index finger, which was pointing towards the sky.
Rumble!
The entire Thunder Prison roared into action, and countless lightning chains, like evil dragons obeying a command, rushed from all directions towards the tiny, Soul-Crying Infant!
Luo Yuan was completely stunned.
She stared blankly at the thunderous hell that had replaced the sky, at the man who ruled over the Lightning Punishment like a god, and a shiver from the depths of her soul made her forget to breathe.
"Is this... really the power that Heaven Realm First Level can possess?"
at the same time.
Hundreds of miles away, in another desolate stone forest.
A lithe man with shark-like gill slits on his face was moving at an astonishing speed.
It was Hei Sha from the Blackwater Alliance.
Suddenly, he stopped abruptly, looked up, and gazed at the distant horizon.
In his perception, from that direction, a vast, pure, and destructive force of thunder rose into the sky, stirring up the chaotic energy of the entire Prison Suppression!
The power was so strong that even from hundreds of miles away, it made him feel a chill.
On Hei Sha's shark-like face, his gills twitched slightly, and a hint of seriousness and confusion flashed in his eyes.
"Such a powerful attack method, could it be that he killed the three Blackwater members?"
"Whoever it is, someone who can cause such a commotion is definitely not a good person."
Without hesitation, he blurred into a blur and sped towards the source of the energy fluctuations.
