Instantly, the sound spread through the entire Quhang City, even the ground shook. The few of them walked out of the inn and saw that a huge monster had suddenly appeared outside the city gates. It was pitch-black, and it was impossible to see its appearance clearly. However, pairs of blood-red eyes were glowing as they stared at the city.
It was extremely tall, almost twice the height of the city wall when it stood up. It waved its huge claws and slapped hard, pushing down the city wall. Terrified screams could be heard below the city wall.
"Is this the monster that is harming the city!" The disciple subconsciously wanted to pull out the sword in his hand.
"Don't forget," Fatty reminded. "This is a dream."
The disciples paused and looked up at the monster in front of them. Could this monster be fake? But it clearly looked so real. Everyone's expression changed. For a moment, they didn't know if they should attack.
But the monster was getting closer and closer. It pushed down the city wall directly and was biting towards the panicking crowd. They could even smell the thick stench of blood coming from its huge mouth. The people in the city were frantically running around, but there were too many of them. They couldn't all escape, and there were always a few who fell behind.
So the monster bit down, and instantly blood splattered. It was a ghastly sight. It even stretched out seven or eight octopus-like claws, entangling those who were running away and throwing them into its mouth one by one. There was a faint crunching sound of chewing.
Everyone's hands tightened, and they desperately resisted the urge to attack. On the other side, something flashed across Zhi Lin's face. She suddenly pulled out her sword and shouted, "I can't watch anymore. Even if it's an illusion, I can't bear to see this monster wantonly hurting people."
With that said, she rushed over.
"Zhi Lin!" Everyone wanted to stop her, but it was too late. They watched as she flew over on her sword.
She summoned a blazing flame and shot it towards the monster. Unfortunately, her cultivation was ultimately too weak. Not only did she not cause any damage to the monster, but she was also entangled by its claws. She was about to be eaten.
"Little Lin!" Jian Xing was shocked. He directly pulled out his sword and rushed over.
The other disciples also rushed over and began to attack the monster. Jian Xing even chopped off one of the enemy's tentacles and saved Zhi Lin.
Fatty took a look at them and shook his head. Indeed, they were lacking in experience.
Under the joint attack of several people, the monster gradually lost the strength to resist. It suddenly let out a miserable cry and began to flee in the direction of the city gate. The few of them naturally wouldn't let it escape, so they all ran towards it.
Jian Xing even summoned the sword array directly. Instantly, thousands of swords formed by Spirit Qi rained down from the sky towards the monster below. Instantly, the monster was nailed to the city gate.
The monster let out a blood-curdling screech, and its huge body collapsed with a loud rumble. All the disciples heaved a sigh of relief, but before they could feel the joy of victory, a familiar roar came from behind them.
Suddenly, another identical monster appeared behind them, slowly crawling into the gap in the city gate.
"What's going on?" Everyone was shocked. Why would there be more? They had no choice but to turn around and continue to deal with this monster. However, these monsters seemed to be endless. After killing one, another identical one would immediately appear. It was as if they were deliberately trying to waste time with them.
Only then did they start to recall Fatty's words. Did he stop them just now because he had already guessed that this would happen? He turned around to look at the panicking people in the city, but realized that although they were fleeing with all their might, none of them ran out of the city gate. It was as if … they were trapped by something.
"Brother, look, what's that?" Zhi Lin suddenly pointed at the corner of the wall and said.
Jian Xing turned around and saw that on the gap in the city wall that was just pushed down by the monster, there was a faint red glow, as if it was the glow of some sorcery. Without thinking much, he waved his sword and shouted to everyone, "There's an array on the city wall. Attack that city wall."
Fatty who was watching the battle below paled. "Stop!"
Unfortunately, it was too late. Jian Xing's sword was already waved towards the city wall. Although the others' sorcery was a step late, it also deviated towards the city wall. With a loud rumble, a large piece of the city wall collapsed. In an instant, like dominoes being pushed down, not only the city wall, but everything in the city also began to collapse. The originally brightly lit city began to distort and change shape, as if the whole world was disappearing.
All the disciples were shocked. Before they could even see clearly what was happening, they felt their bodies become heavy and they fell straight down. In the next moment, their vision blurred, and they appeared on a piece of flat land outside the city. Around them stood those dazed people who had left the city previously. Everything was the same as when they had just left the city, as if they had never been to that brightly lit city at all.
Could it be that their primordial spirits had also left their bodies just now? Before they could think carefully, they felt their primordial spirits becoming unstable. A gush of blood surged up, and they all spat out blood. And in the next moment, the people who were originally standing around them suddenly began to collapse powerlessly. In a short while, they were all lying on the ground.
The few who were injured looked at each other. What was going on? But when they looked up, they saw Fatty with a solemn expression.
"Oh no!" Fatty looked up at the sky that was already beginning to brighten. "Those living souls in the city …" He turned around and summoned his flying sword.
"Exalted Master, what exactly is this?" All the disciples still looked confused, completely unaware of what was going on.
Fatty glared at them somewhat angrily, then explained, "Have you all forgotten that the souls of the people in the city have all left their bodies! How are they going to return to their bodies if their dreams are directly interrupted? "Fatty said as he flew up on his flying sword." All of you stay here and look after their bodies! Don't let that evil ghost come near! "
With that said, he turned and flew directly towards the city.
At this moment, in the city, Lonemoon, who was guarding a certain foodie who had woken up, looked up at the sky and immediately frowned.
He got up and walked into a house next to him. On a closer look, indeed, the living soul lying on the bed began to become unstable, faintly showing signs of turning into a ghost. But his body still did not return. It seemed like it was too late.
Lonemoon's expression darkened. Seeing that the sky was about to brighten, he walked out and conjured a seal with both hands. A large array appeared under his feet, instantly enveloping the entire city, temporarily suppressing the living souls in the city from dispersing.
The next moment, the sun slowly rose. A certain someone who had slept soundly on the streets for the whole night also opened his eyes. At one glance, he saw the person sitting beside him with a face full of resentment.
"Hey, Father Niu, good morning!"
"Morning my ass!" Lonemoon directly rolled his eyes. "In the future before you sleep, you'd better tie a rope to the head of the bed." Even a mere gust of ghost Qi could be drawn away, how deep was his sleep! Didn't he have any f * cking idea how grumpy he was when he woke up?
