NOVPUBHowever, before the two of them could say anything to Wang Ba, they heard what Ma Shengxu and Miao Jilong were saying.
"There’s a Plague Demon in that sea barrier?!"
Qi Yan and the others couldn’t help but look solemn.
Wang Ba immediately led everyone toward where the huge octopus had fallen, wondering, "What is this Plague Demon, and why are you all so concerned about it?"
Upon hearing this, Qi Yan thought for a moment and then explained:
"Although it is called a demon, the Plague Demon is actually a natural creature born from heaven and earth, no different from ordinary Spirit Beasts. However, wherever it goes, it causes plagues and kills all living beings. Even cultivators cannot escape."
"Even cultivators can’t resist it?"
Wang Ba’s face suddenly changed.
"Exactly, as far as I know, even a Nascent Soul cultivator will only barely survive after getting infected. It’s extremely dangerous."
Qi Yan gravely said: "The birth of the Plague Demon has no pattern. By the time cultivators discover it, a disaster has often already occurred. Luckily, we know about this. Otherwise, if the Plague Demon escapes, the consequences would be unimaginable!"
"These two continental cultivators are extremely malicious to bring this here!"
Hu Zaixi couldn’t help but shout angrily.
Soon, under Wang Ba’s guidance, the Black Chi Dragon arrived at the sea barrier they had escaped from earlier.
Wang Ba quickly caught both Qin Lingxiao and Xumi Body.
The Ghost-eyed Chi, on the other hand, darted directly into the sea barrier.
The thousand foot body caused a massive wave.
Not too long after, the head of the black Dragon burst out of the water surface.
Underneath it, there was the dragging body of a huge octopus that was much larger than it, like a mountain.
However, what changed everyone’s expressions was that the body of this octopus had been bitten by many demonic beasts within the sea barrier and was already in a terrible state.
Qi Yan and the others immediately rushed forward.
After a search, Qi Yan held a unique glove with a man-height crystal in his hand. Within the crystal, a pink creature resembling a rabbit was frozen.
"Is this the Plague Demon?"
Wang Ba looked surprised.
"The form of the Plague Demon is not fixed."
Qi Yan seemed to know his thoughts and explained.
Wang Ba subconsciously activated his Bloodline Identification Skill. To his surprise, this small creature’s bloodline contained only one trace of light, and the intensity of that light was not inferior to the highest stage bloodline within the Ghost-patterned Stone Lizard’s body.
Qi Yan glanced at Wang Ba. His face showed surprise.
"So quickly you’ve reached Stage III. You truly have a talent."
After putting away the crystal containing the Plague Demon, Qi Yan was about to speak when he suddenly felt a sense of crisis!
Not only him, Ling Weizi and the others seemed to sense something at this moment, and their faces changed dramatically!
"Run!"
Qi Yan swiftly collected the octopus, which was still full of Blood Energy, and shouted.
Wei Rong swiftly grabbed Wang Ba who hadn’t reacted yet.
Hu Zaixi used his mana to wrap around Qin Lingxiao and Xumi Body.
In an instant, everyone quickly flew back in the direction from where they came.
Wang Ba was puzzled and turned to Wei Rong:
"Martial Uncle Wei, what’s going on?"
"Look behind."
Wei Rong said in a low voice.
Wang Ba turned his head doubtfully, but all he saw was a huge sea barrier spanning north to south, reaching straight up to the sky. He couldn’t see anything else.
"This…"
However, just as he was about to ask, he heard a booming noise.
Despite seeing nothing, the faint noise struck fear into his heart.
He couldn’t help but look toward the sea barrier.
The noise was getting closer and louder, deep and oppressive, as if it was pressing on his heart. Finally——
Boom!!!
The immense sea barrier, from which he couldn’t see the sides or the top or bottom, suddenly fell over without warning!
It looked as if the sky was falling!
Numerous demonic beasts fell from the sea barrier, drawing arcs in the air and causing not-so-conspicuous waves on the sea surface.
And in the sky, a black celestial river poured out, obscuring the sky and the sun, and rushed toward them!
On the sea surface, they who were desperately trying to outrun it, looked just like tiny ants.
This scene was so grandiose and magnificent, it exceeded Wang Ba’s imagination.
The wind roared in his ears from both sides.
Seeing the apocalyptic scene before his eyes, and sensing the security brought by his martial uncles, who were quickly but calmly advancing over the waves, he actually seemed mesmerized for a moment.
Finally, they successfully escaped from the range of the sea barrier’s coverage just before the barrier collapsed and the numerous seawater would have pressed them down to the seabed.
Wang Ba finally saw the source of this dramatic change outside of the sea barrier.
At the end of his line of sight, a broken golden Buddha statue stretched across the sea and touched the sky. Across from the statue, he could vaguely see a purple thunderlight and a pale white light...
...
At the original location of the shattered barrier, deep within the sea.
From the depths of the various-sized whirlpools flowed a mysterious substance. When this substance flowed into the seawater, it quietly turned into strands of Yuanci energy.
Under the workings of these whirlpools and Yuanci energy.
The surrounding seawater quickly gathered and then gushed upward.
The barrier was quickly recovering.
However, in one of these whirlpools, one could vaguely glimpse the quiet and deep, empty and vast area within.
Not far from the whirlpool.
A demonic beast was tearing at a huge tentacle.
In the midst of the tearing, a crystal as high as a man quietly fell, dropping straight next to the whirlpool.
