Di Zhe, who had always replied to her questions without fail, didnt speak. Sima You Yue turned her head over to look at him and saw his expression that carried even more shock than when they saw the mass groups of blood bats.
"What"
She hadnt even managed to get her second word out when Di Zhe pulled her and ran towards the Earth Palace.
They were the first two to enter, followed by Di Liu and Master Ghost. The moment Master Ghost entered, he surrounded the entire Earth Palace with a barrier.
Later on, only three to five of the people remained as they ran inside. The others were trapped outside the barrier.
"Let us in! Let us in!"
"Im begging you, let us in!"
"Ah, help!"
""
Those people cried out desperately outside, but Master Ghost hadnt the slightest intention to let them come in.
Sima You Yue stood behind them. She had no intention to accede to their pleas.
It wasnt that she was too cold-blooded. It was that those people could have chosen to leave this place earlier on, but they didnt because they wanted to stay behind to kill her and Di Zhe.
Towards people who wanted to kill her, she wasnt that pure and kind-hearted as to save them in dangerous times by ignoring the safety of herself and Di Zhe to plead with Master Ghost to open the barrier.
"Let us in! Let us in!"
"Those people were still crying out crazily. A few saw that it was hopeless, and could only turn their attention to defeating that weird entity.
A few others continued to run backwards, but stopped before they made it far. That was because the cloud of black mist had stretched out into a circular shape, surrounding the entire area.
It was only now that Sima You Yue understood why Di Zhe and the others didnt take her and escape further back, but chose to stay in the Earth Palace.
However, this wasnt the steadiest of plans. Otherwise, Master Ghost wouldnt have surrounded the place with a barrier.
"Just what is going on here?"
"This should be Devils Blood." Di Zhe said, "Who would have thought that this place would actually form Devils Blood. Its no wonder that those blood bats would escape so far away earlier on."
"Is Devils Blood that powerful?" Sima You Yue was speechless. Even those blood bats were that terrified of it, so just how scary was its existence?
"Yes, in front of it, we are powerless to do anything." Di Zhe said with a pale expression, "If we knew that Devils Blood was here, we would never have come to the wonderlands. You can say that facing it is like facing the god of death himself."
"Is it an underworld beast?" Sima You Yue asked.
"Not really, you can only say that its a dark spirit beast. This kind of thing can form in the ghost and devil realm. It can also pass through all three realms. No matter who it is, even a paragon ranked expert, has no sure chance of success. Unless youre an emperor, only then can you fight it." Di Zhe explained.
"So powerful!" Sima You Yue sucked in a breath. An emperor had yet to appear in all these years, but something so powerful actually appeared, "If it leaves this place and goes to the outside, wouldnt it swallow every single person on the continent whole!"
Di Zhe and Master Ghost didnt speak, tacitly agreeing to what she said.
No matter where this thing went, it would destroy entire continents.
"This thing has never appeared before?"
"It has. Its rumored that it appeared once in the ancient times. The losses were dire, and it resulted in countless deaths. However, at that time, Emperors were many and they managed to exterminate that thing." Master Ghost said.
And right now, they didnt have even a single Emperor. Man, Devil and Ghost, these three realms were in a lot of danger.
"Its a good thing that this thing has yet to completely grow. If a few who have half a step into the emperor rank attack it together, they might be able to exterminate it."
Half a step into the emperor rank. Even if they only needed those half a step in, aside from the Ghost King and Devil King, there were no others.
Of course, that didnt mean that there were none. They were probably just laying low and news wasnt spread.
However, just how many people were half a step into the emperor realm? There was no way they could rush here now and defeat this thing.
"Why dont we strengthen it together?" Someone from the gu clan suggested.
Everyone looked at him as if he were an idiot.
The Master Ghost was a ghost clansmen. Everyones spirit energy clashed with his. If you went to help him, wouldnt you just be causing more trouble?!
The person realised this and was rather embarrassed as he no longer spoke up.
"Do we really have no other choice?"
The unending silence brought with it a deep sense of despair.
"Master Ghost, could it be we really" Di Liu looked at Master Ghost, hoping desperately that he would have an answer.
However, even Master Ghost could only shake his head.
Was there really no other way?
Silence. It swallowed their time along with their hope.
"Ah-"
One of the people who came in behind Master Ghost couldnt take being oppressed by the despairing atmosphere anymore and cried out.
"Do we really have to die here?" Another person said tearfully. In the face of this entity, they couldnt resist at all. They could only watch with their eyes wide open as they walked through deaths door.
"Shut up!" Sima You Yue was irritated by their tearful cries and she shouted at the both of them. Her tyrannical nature stunned everyone else.
Was this a temperament that a little lady should have?
Sima You Yue cared nothing for the way they looked at her as she came to Master Ghosts side, asking, "Master Ghost, creatures of the dark hate fire and lightning. What about this thing? Is it afraid of them too?"
