The sound grew louder and louder, as though thunder was rapidly approaching from the horizon.
Boom!
The moment the sound came out of the stone temple, it was like a clap of thunder exploding above everyone's heads. Zhou Wen felt his ears buzz as though his head was about to split open. Blood seeped out of his eyes, nose, ears, and mouth. He couldn't hear anything for a moment.
The others weren't much better than Zhou Wen. Some of Lord Alcohol and company had already vomited blood. Even their Companion Beasts were affected as their expressions changed drastically. Some Companion Beasts were clearly injured.
However, Lord Alcohol and company covered their ears and didn't move. They remained motionless.
Zhou Wen didn't dare move again when he saw this situation. The sound was too sinister. Just a tremor above his head had nearly knocked him unconscious. Who knew what would happen if he continued speaking.
Zhou Wen already had the thought of retreating to the other side of the stone beam. The other side didn't seem to be affected. As long as he retreated to the other side of the stone beam and shouted, he could use the terrifying sound to easily finish off Lord Alcohol and company.
Lord Alcohol kept staring at Zhou Wen and company. When he saw the change in Zhou Wen's eyes, he seemed to guess something. He opened his mouth and said something to Zhou Wen, but he didn't make a sound.
Zhou Wen carefully identified it for a while and realized that Lord Alcohol had said, "Don't move. The air flow can also cause an echo. When the time comes, we will all die. If we could run, we would have done so long ago."
Zhou Wen didn't know if what he said was true, but seeing that they didn't seem to have any intention of moving, he guessed that they would have long fled if they could.
"It's impossible for us to stay here forever, right?" Zhou Wen mouthed to Lord Alcohol.
"Wait. In another hour or so, the echo will disappear," Lord Alcohol said.
Zhou Wen's heart stirred when he heard that. Now that Lord Alcohol and company didn't dare move, they could still maintain peaceful coexistence. However, once the echo's restriction on them disappeared, Zhou Wen and company might not be a match for Lord Alcohol and company.
Although Zhou Wen had the banana fan, Lord Alcohol and company were clearly not weaklings. Even someone like An Sheng had been defeated by them. Lord Alcohol and company definitely couldn't be underestimated, especially Lord Alcohol.
He had once experienced the dimensional storms and was even in the company of figures like Jing Daoxian and Zhang Daotian. He was definitely not as simple as an old man.
If I don't take the opportunity to deal with them now, I'm afraid the three of us will suffer later, Zhou Wen thought.
However, the three of them weren't immune to Huiyin's damage either. Dealing with Lord Alcohol and company now seemed to be the same as dealing with themselves.
Unfortunately, Truth Listener is still evolving. Otherwise, Truth Listener would be of some use against the echo. Zhou Wen thought of Truth Listener and glanced at the chaos space. He saw that it was still in the state of a stone egg. He didn't know when it would complete its evolution.
"Other than Truth Listener, is there no other way?" Zhou Wen struggled to think of a way to deal with Echo.
Banana Fairy definitely couldn't do it. She was an offense-type Companion Beast and didn't have good defense. Now that she couldn't see the enemy, she couldn't retaliate.
Doctor Darkness was even more useless under such circumstances. Without an opponent, he couldn't use his abilities.
As, he he, he he Doctor. without, without as, without as, as, as, as he, he. without, he. Zhou Wen thought for a moment. Although Ghost Bride wasn't afraid of the echo, it wasn't of much help to Zhou Wen's present situation. It was impossible for Ghost Bride to help them resist the echo.
"Unless the echo itself is directional." Zhou Wen carefully recalled the details of the echo explosion and felt that although they were relatively far from the stone temple, they didn't have the advantage.
The echoes seemed to get louder the further they went. They didn't seem any different from Lord Alcohol and the others standing in front of the stone temple.
Just as Zhou Wen was pondering over it, he saw Lu Yunxian winking at him. He kept opening his mouth to say something, but Zhou Wen didn't notice it as he had been looking at Lord Alcohol and company.
Now that he noticed Lu Yunxian, he could quickly tell from his lips that he was saying: "I have a way to resist the echo."
"You can block the echo?" Zhou Wen also mouthed to communicate with Lu Yunxian, but unfortunately, Lu Yunxian didn't have the ability to read lips. All he did was keep repeating his words.
Zhou Wen thought for a moment. Lu Yunxian was a very reliable person. From the looks of it, he wouldn't lie.
Zhou Wen hesitated for a moment before attempting to walk towards Lu Yunxian. He wasn't far from Lu Yunxian to begin with, only about two to three steps away. The moment he took a step forward, he immediately heard rumbling thunder in the stone temple. It erupted almost instantly.
Boom!
A bolt of lightning exploded, causing Lord Alcohol and company to bleed from their seven orifices. Even the Companion Beasts were no exception.
As for Zhou Wen and company, they were fine. In front of them was a very strange Companion Beast. The Companion Beast looked like a headless pig. Its body was round and oval, and it didn't have a head or tail. It had four hooves, making it look very strange.
However, such a stupid looking Companion Beast actually used a strange energy fluctuation to withstand the terrifying sound wave, preventing the trio from suffering the impact of the sound wave.
Zhou Wen's eyes narrowed as he looked at Lord Alcohol and company. Lord Alcohol wasn't in a good state to begin with, so his face turned even paler when he saw this scene.
"Young Master Wen, how about we make a deal?" Lord Alcohol mouthed.
"How?" Zhou Wen directly said that, immediately causing thunder to rumble in the stone temple. Once again, it transformed into an echo wave that exploded above the stone temple. Bam!
Bam!
Some Companion Beasts were knocked to the ground. Lord Alcohol and more than ten others were bleeding from their seven orifices. They were slightly weaker and had already collapsed to the ground.
These sounds triggered more echoes. Thunder rumbled outside the stone temple as though Thunder God was enraged. The echoes kept bombarding the area.
A few people on Lord Alcohol's side were already bleeding from their seven orifices. It was unknown if they were dead or alive. The situation on Zhou Wen's side wasn't looking good either. The echoes were too powerful. The strange Companion Beast's body trembled as though it couldn't hold on any longer.
Zhou Wen glanced sideways and saw Lord Alcohol advance instead of retreating. He charged into the stone temple despite the thunderous sound.
"Let's enter the stone temple." Zhou Wen's heart stirred as he got Lu Yunxian to control the Companion Beast and head in the direction of the stone temple.
Zhou Wen originally imagined that the sound would be more terrifying closer to the stone temple, but when he arrived outside the stone temple, he realized that the further he was from the stone temple, the louder the sound became. Although the echoes were still terrifying inside the stone temple, they weren't as terrifying as when they were outside.
Zhou Wen sized up the stone temple and saw that there were many stone tools inside. Most of them were very crude, and Lord Alcohol was running towards the back door of the stone temple. The terrifying echoes only made him vomit blood and fail to kill him.
