"Guwu ~ ~ ~ ~ ~"
The hair-raising cry was still echoing in everyone's ears.
At this moment, the twenty Alioth people were submerged in the dense forest maze. Only their footsteps could be heard, but they were nowhere to be seen. No one dared to stop them.
The deepest fear was often not the sudden death, but the unexplainable death that kept repeating itself around them.
The Star Palace Swordmasters covered their mouths, trying their best not to cry out loud.
North Palace Sword Immortal Wei Huan, as a Shenjun cultivator, was also powerless. She had tried to stop the disciples, but the disciples she tried to stop bit their tongues and committed suicide. Even now, she still could not forget the disciple whose mouth was full of blood and who had turned into a corpse but continued to be fed to the Red Rune Death Dragon.
She wanted to try and kill the Red Rune Death Dragon.
However, she was also afraid that the Red Rune Death Dragon was the true messenger of death in this world. If she offended and harmed the entire Alioth people, she would be ashamed to face the entire Yuheng Shenjiang. They had come here with a mission.
"Let's go …" Finally, Wei Huan made a decision.
They had to leave this place as soon as possible, leave the Red Rune Death Dragon's territory, leave its hunting area.
"Are we really not going to do anything?" A Purple Sword Heavenly Maiden asked.
It was the same question again!
Wei Huan had heard this question more than once.
It was as if her subordinates were berating her for being useless, berating her for not being able to do anything other than watch her disciples die.
Wei Huan's face was filled with anger. She stared at the Purple Sword Heavenly Maiden and said, "What can we do? Tell me, what can we do! Before we stepped into this place, our god repeatedly emphasized the dangers of Shadowed Scar. Am I a god of Shadowed Scar that knows the abilities of all living beings here? If this Red Rune Death Dragon is the descendant of the ancient god of death, if we act rashly and lose all our souls, who will complete the mission of protecting the Northern Dipper Shenjiang Province!? "
Wei Huan was furious. She angrily rebuked this Heavenly Maiden who thought she was brave and humane!
However, anyone could tell from her rage that the Northern Palace Sword Immortal's heart was also shrouded in fear.
The female Heavenly Venerable was a Divine Master.
The Young Head Venerate, Zhu Minglang, was a peak Divine Master, and his battle prowess was close to that of Shenjun's. Master Celestial Linghu had already confirmed this, but he hadn't been spared either.
This meant that becoming a tribute had nothing to do with one's cultivation. In fact, even if a God King was here, as long as he was chosen, he would not be able to escape death!
Shadowed Scar Star was completely beyond the scope of their previous cultivation worlds!
"Get out of here! Get out of here! "Wei Huan ordered again.
After the order was given, many people began to move.
They were already tired from running around, so they didn't dare to stay here any longer.
Not everyone was like Goddess Zi Jian, who dared to face this terrifying unknown.
Most people still had the mentality of self-preservation, just like a large herd of grassland cattle and sheep. Even if their group was far larger than the predators, when they saw their companions being pounced on and bitten, they could only watch from afar and then walk forward as if nothing had happened …
Once the predator was full, it would not attack them again.
The Red Patterned Death Dragon should have eaten its fill this time, so the rest of them could continue on their way.
…
There weren't many people left behind, only a few.
Leading them was Goddess Zi Jian. She couldn't accept her companions being turned into food, so she was determined to find them and fight the Red Patterned Death Dragon.
The few of them were very careful and didn't make the slightest sound.
They wanted to figure out the Red Patterned Death Dragon's ability, but they also wanted to rescue those who had walked into the jungle maze.
However, they didn't dare to get too close.
Fortunately, the Red Patterned Death Dragon was hidden in the bushes and was relatively far away, giving them enough time to react.
They followed all the way and were prepared to die.
The forest was so dense that it was impossible to see anything within ten meters of one's surroundings, so one could only make out sounds. The usefulness of Divine Sense on Shadowed Scar was also greatly reduced as many species on Shadowed Scar knew how to avoid the detection of Divine Sense.
"Don't be afraid, did you notice something? When the Red Patterned Death Dragon first appeared, they were standing outside the jungle, and the Ancient Eagles were also outside the jungle, "Goddess Zi Jian said seriously.
"En, en," Bai Qin 'an nodded.
"The second time, the Red Patterned Death Dragon was hiding in the maze. If they were truly omnipotent and as powerful as the Death God, they could have stood in front of us, but both times, they deliberately kept a distance from us," Goddess Zi Jian said.
"You're saying that the reason the Ancient Era Eagles appeared outside the forest was not because they had the support of the Dragon Clan. Instead, it could be that the Red Mark Death Dragons were using the Ancient Era Eagles to harass us, forcing us to not act rashly?" Bai Qinan quickly understood what Goddess Zi Jian meant.
"Yes, we were all focused on the issue of tribute, afraid that we would become the target of the Death God, but in fact, this Death God might also be afraid of us, otherwise, why would they carefully keep a safe distance from us?" Goddess Zi Jian said.
"Lu Yin, hearing you say that, I'm not so afraid anymore," A Sword Goddess said.
"The first time, they relied on the Ancient Eagles to prevent us from attacking them. The second time, they hid in the jungle maze, making it impossible for us to find them … Although there is a possibility that they are keeping us in captivity, if we continue to be afraid, our end will only be more tragic! "Goddess Zi Jian said.
Everyone else nodded.
"Why didn't you say this to Sword Immortal Beigong, perhaps …" The Sword Goddess in white said.
Lu Yin said bitterly, "Sword Immortal Beigong has never been on good terms with me. She wouldn't listen to anything I said to her. Plus, they're safe for now, but they're still drowning in fear. I told her that it was useless. They only want to protect themselves and stay safe. What we're doing now is also a gamble. We're betting that the Red-Tattooed Death God Dragon isn't as powerful as we think it is. I'm also afraid, and I don't dare to gamble with all of our lives. After all, we still have a more important mission …"
Everyone fell silent.
This analysis was indeed too shallow, unable to truly prove the Red Patterned Death Dragon's strength.
There were indeed many species that could kill all of their prey in one go, but would intentionally let most of them go. This way, they could be kept in captivity and enjoy the freshest food every day.
"Look in front," someone suddenly said as they pointed at the jungle ahead.
"It seems to be the Young Head Venerate!" Bai Qin 'an said.
