Wang Ping stamped his feet in panic and pointed at the red glow. “Once this formation closes, we’ll all be refined into blood—there won’t even be scraps left! The Azure Sea Sect intends to use every one of our lives to fill the hole!”
“Oh.”
Su Ji nodded, his expression still perfectly calm. “So?”
“So…”
Wang Ping was so choked by that attitude he nearly fainted. “So we need to find a way to break the formation! Or find somewhere to hide…”
“Hide?”
Hearing Wang Ping’s naïve suggestion, Su Ji couldn’t help laughing.
Wang Ping’s face went deathly pale, and his lips trembled. “B-but… the Star-Sea Spectacle is so vast. There must be some blind spots the formation can’t cover, right?”
“There may be blind spots.” Su Ji gave a slight nod, then suddenly shifted his tone. A hint of amusement flickered in his eyes. “But…”
“You’d better ask them whether they agree.”
“Them?”
Wang Ping froze. He instinctively followed Su Ji’s gaze and looked around.
Where were the “them”?
Apart from the three of them, there wasn’t even a ghostly figure nearby…
“Crack.”
A sharp, teeth-grating snap rang out without warning.
The sound was incredibly close.
Wang Ping spun around.
And saw a hand.
It was most certainly not a human hand.
It was more than twice as broad as an ordinary person’s palm, its skin a ghastly white, as though it had been soaked in water for years.
Yet covering it was a layer of fine, dark-red scales.
Its claws were sharp as hooks and black as ink. When they came into contact with the seawater, they emitted a sizzling sound as the water corroded around them.
A foul stench, thick with the reek of seawater and rotting flesh, surged into their faces.
“What… what the hell is that?!”
Wang Ping recoiled in fright and instinctively summoned a defensive magical artifact.
The hand suddenly exerted force.
Amid the sound of viscous liquid dripping, a huge and twisted figure emerged.
The first thing to come into view was a savage head.
It had facial features resembling those of a human, but its eyes had been replaced by two balls of burning ghostfire. Its mouth stretched all the way to its ears, revealing rows of interlocking fangs like saw teeth. Bits of unidentified flesh still hung between them.
The monster stood a full two zhang tall. Its upper body was bare, its muscles knotted like boulders.
In its hand, it carried a bone blade polished from the spine of some enormous beast. Dark-red bloodlight flowed along its edge, clearly marking it as a vicious weapon.
“Roar—”
The sound was like two rusted iron plates scraping against each other, piercingly harsh.
Wang Ping felt a chill shoot from the soles of his feet straight to the crown of his head. His legs went weak, and he nearly fell to his knees.
He had roamed the Chaotic Star Sea for many years, yet he had never heard of such a vicious creature.
What was more, the monster’s aura had already reached the early stage of Deity Transformation!
“Run! Run!”
Wang Ping turned and tried to flee, but his legs felt as heavy as lead.
Under the gaze of those eyes burning with ghostfire, he could feel even his soul trembling.
The monster had clearly noticed the three “prey” standing before it.
Instead of pouncing immediately, it tilted its head. A trace of mockery flashed in its ghostfire-like eyes as its lips moved. To their surprise, it uttered a few words of garbled human speech.
“Fresh… tender…”
Su Ji raised an eyebrow, slightly surprised. “Oh? You can talk?”
Hiding behind Su Ji, Su Jiu wrinkled her little nose in disgust. “Senior Brother, it’s so ugly. And it stinks.”
“Indeed.” Su Ji nodded in deep agreement. “With a face that careless, the only thing it can do is come out and scare Fellow Daoist Wang.”
Wang Ping: “…”
At a time like this, they still had the leisure to comment on its appearance?!
